------ Chapter 2 ~ Unexpected Tears ------
"Oi Motoki!" said Mamoru as he came into the arcade. "Leaving already?" he asked when he saw his friend rushing towards the door.
"I'm going to the hospital. Want to come with me, Mamoru?"
"What for? Who are you going to go visit at the hospital?"
"Usagi-chan." He replied with a sad look on his face.
"WHAT? What happened to her? Why is she in the hospital? Is she okay?" Mamoru didn't even give Motoki a chance to answer. Finally when Mamoru was done asking, he spoke.
"I'm not sure what happened. I received a call form Minako telling me that Usagi was in the hospital and if I could come over. So are you coming or not?"
"Of course I am!" They both rushed out of the arcade and got in Mamoru's car.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Minna, how is Usagi?" Every one turned around when they heard Motoki. Minako stood up and went to where Motoki and Mamoru were. Makoto followed as soon as she saw Mamoru. "Why are YOU here?" she asked him.
"I came to see how Odan- I mean Usagi was doing."
"So, how is she?" asked Motoki.
Minako looked at Mamoru then at Motoki. Then she lowered her head. "She's not doing well." She said softly, almost whispering. Both Mamoru and Motoki gasped when they heard her say that. "She is barely hanging on to her life. Her parents are with her right now." she continued.
"She IS going to be alright, isn't she?" asked Mamoru. Minako didn't do anything; she just stood there with her head lowered. And again she spoke "The doctor said that she could go into a coma at any time. If she does, there's no telling if…" she trailed off.
"There's no telling if WHAT?" asked Motoki.
"…If she will…ever come out of it." Makoto finished. Just then they turned around to see Usagi's parents come out of the room. Motoki and Mamoru walked up to them. "Mr. And Mrs. Tsukino, hi. I'm Usagi's friend. How is your daughter doing?"
"Not good." Said Ikuko.
"May we enter to see her?" asked Mamoru. Minako and Makoto were surprised to hear that Mamoru wanted to see how Usagi was doing.
"Hai." Mamoru looked at his friend, then turned and entered the room.
He was shocked when he saw Usagi. She was so pale. It almost looked like her blood was gone. Her hair wasn't in its usual 'meatballs'. It was up in a ponytail. She was wearing a breathing mask. They went and stood at her side. Mamoru sat beside her on the bed. 'I don't know why, but it hurts so much to see her like this,' he said to himself.
Motoki saw the expression on his friends' face. It was a look he had never seen on Mamoru. He looked so sad, so…deeply hurt. "Mamoru?" He put his hand his shoulder.
Mamoru turned to look at Motoki. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." He smiled slightly. Then that smile went away as fast as it came. He turned back to look at Usagi. Motoki didn't understand. 'Why is Mamoru acting like this?' he asked himself. Then he noticed something on Mamoru's cheek. 'Is he…crying?'

Author's Note:
So, what do you think? Was it a good cliffhanger or what? Tell me what you think by reviewing. I've got the next chapter ready, but I'll post it depending if people want to read more, which I think you might. Ja ne, minna!
