Chapter Twelve: Secret Revealed

After healing couple of people, she took a break as she can't heal so much people at once if not her head will hurt. She just also had the continuous pestering from Doctor Shiyasu, the only doctor in the village to tell him how she was able to heal so many people with sickness that he had no way of curing it. He was always dreaming about being a good doctor but he just had not enough money to go out of out the village to have a good education. Thus, he was always trying to get the words out of Yushi, not giving up but to no avail.

She went in a small wooden shack which is actually a small coffee shop opened by the villagers. Then came in, two of her favourite people, Takeya and Yamisu.

Yushi asked cheerily," So where have you guys been?"

Yamisu responded," Oh, just walking around to have a look around the village."

Takeya added," The scenery here looks quite pretty."

"Yeah," Yushi agreed. "I would love to live here for some time with my loved one, one day," She said wistfully.

Yamisu nudged Takeya. "Talking about you," She grinned.

Takeya blushed a little then changed the subject. "So, how's it going Yushi?"

"Oh, fine. I'm just taking a break because I can't..." Looking around to make sure no one was in the range of hearing, she dropped her voice to a whisper. "Because I can't heal so many people at once if not I'll have a headache. And I'm kinda hungry."

"I see so we better get something to eat. I'm starving too. I'll go and see what they have here and then get something for us to eat, ok?"

"Sure." Yushi smiled.

Yamisu turned towards Yushi. "Hey Yushi, who was that doctor I happened to saw bugging you?"

Sighing in response, she answered," He's a doctor in this village. The only one and he's really interested in how I cure so many people at once while he has no ways or means to cure all those people with sickness beyond his knowledge."

"I see.so what do you reply then when he always asks?"

"Just the same thing. That technology is very advanced now and they have ways and means to cure people with serious illness and stuff and that my mom's a doctor so she taught me how and stuff like that."

"Soka, but you better watch out for him. He seems like he'll do anything to find out. You better be careful."

Yushi smiled again. "Thanks for your concern. But even though he seems really keen to find out, I don't think he'll do anything bad about my secret if he ever finds out. He's a really nice person. He wants to cure a lot of people that's why he wanna be a doctor."

"Even though you say that, I still say you are better off watching out for him." At that time, Takeya came with the food and Yushi was not able to reply.

Yushi sniffed. "They smell really nice. I'll dig in now, I'm so hungry."

Takeya grinned. "Of course, I don't want you to die from hunger because I won't know what I'll do without you."

Yamisu pretended to gag. "Don't get so lovey dovey in front of me, ok?" Without waiting for response, she quickly digged in to her lunch.

When they finished lunch, Yushi got up. "Well, I better continue my work so I can finish as soon as possible then I can go and play with Miya."

Takeya offered. "I'll go with you."

Yamisu smirked. "Don't trust your girlfriend, huh? Scared she's gonna elope, huh?"

"Of course not. I trust Yushi that she won't do such things, right Yu- chan?"

Yushi pretended, tapping her finger on her chin. "I don't know about that, Take-kun, there's a person here who likes me and he's real handsome. He asked me out last time but I was busy so I turned down the offer but seeing that I won't have anything to do for the night, I might ask him out."

"Hey, don't get carry away there."

"I'm just kidding Take-kun." She chuckled. "Well, we better go now. You gonna be fine, Yami-chan?"

"Of course. I'm old enough to take care of myself."

"Oh, really? But you look like a 3 year old to me with that face." Takeya teased.

Yamisu was going to hit him when he cowered behind Yushi.

"Iko, Take-kun."

"Ok." He took hold of her hand whom smiled at him.

Yamisu sighed at the couple. "Oh well. I better go find something to do."

~*~ Takeya had gone to a public modern toilet with just two cubicles. When he went out, he almost bumped to Doctor Shiyasu who had come up to him suddenly.

Doctor Shiyasu asked," Hey, you are one of Yushi's friends, aren't you?"

"Uh yeah. Who are you?" He blurted.

"I'm Doctor Shiyasu." He stuck out his hand which Takeya kindly shook it.

"Soka, so you are the doctor Yushi had been talking about. She said you are a great doctor."

"Honto deska? Well, I wouldn't say that as I'm not as good as Yushi. Do you think you can tell me how Yushi's able to heal so many people easily with sickness that I do not know of?"

Takeya narrowed his eyes. "I can't tell you that. If you wanna know, why not ask her yourself? She'll be sure to tell you if she wants to."

"That's it, she won't tell me. Please do tell me. Onegai."

"I'm sorry but I can't. I better be going now. Nice to meet you. Ja na." He was about to go away when Doctor Shiyasu got hold of his arm.

"Please tell me, I beg you. I don't have enough money to go out there to have education. If you tell me, I'll be able to be a great doctor and earn lots and lots of money. Also cure many people." He went down on his knees.

"Sorry, I really gotta go now."

"So you do know Yushi's secret, don't you?" An evil glint in his eyes when an idea popped into his mind

"So what if I know?"

He smiled and got up. "So you do know. I was just acting, I do know her secret. I was just pretending because I wanna know if she told you as she doesn't tell much people about her secret."

Takeya grinned. "So you know? Isn't incredible?" He looked around to check if anyone was around. "I wish I have healing powers like her but I guess it's only for those chosen ones. Oh well, you can't beat fate."

He widened his eyes in response. /Yushi has healing powers? So all that crap about technology and her mother was really false. Healing powers? No wonder she can heal so much people at once./ Deep in his thoughts, he didn't notice Takeya waving his hand in front of him, trying to get his attention.

When he looked at Takeya, Takeya said," I really gotta go now. Ja." With a wave, he walked away.

Doctor Shiyasu walked his own way. /It's so unfair. Why her? Why not me?/ Raindrops started pattering down on his face. /How can you do this to me, Kami-sama? Why not me? Doo shitte? Doo shitte?! I'm the one who's interested in having an education so I'll be able to heal many people and earn lots of money. But she! She's just simply curing people. She doesn't care about education and stuff. She just heals like that but I need education! What's this? How unfair!/

Then another wicked plan came to his mind. /She's too blessed with such an incredible supernatural power/ He grinned evilly. "I'll call the media and I'll have so much money that I can study in any university in the world."

Hope you guys like this chapter ^_^ And if anyone wonders like that how can Yushi tell Yamisu and Takeya her secrets when she met them not long ago, it's because they are really nice people and Yushi gets along with them very well and grew to love them and trust is really needed in love so she decided to tell them the secret.
