"Darien. I'm. going to die!"
"N-No, it can't be. The doctor must have gotten it wrong. He must have!" Darien couldn't believe it. He didn't want to believe it.
He tightened his embrace. Serena felt something wet on her shoulder. Then she realized that he was crying. She buried her face in his chest and wept. "Darien."
Neither of them moved or said anything for a long time.
Then, suddenly. the door flew open and Ken was standing in the doorway with Ilene behind.
Darien and Serena immediately separated.
"Otou-san!"
"Who the hell is this man?!" he yelled.
"Dear, please calm down." Ilene said from behind.
"How do you want me to calm down when there is a man in our daughter's bedroom at midnight!!" he yelled back.
"Otou-san, I can explain-" Serena was cut off by Ken.
"Who the hell are you?!" he asked, or rather yelled at Darien. By this point, Darien wished he could just run out of the house.
"I-I." Darien was so scared that he couldn't talk.
Serena stepped up in front of him.
"Otou-san, please don't be mad at him." She said to her father.
"Don't be mad at him? How can I not be mad at him?!" Ken was getting furious.
"He has the right to be here! He's very important to me!" Serena yelled back in response.
"What are you talking about? This man has no right to be here!! And I have a right to protect my daughter!!"
"Protect? You've done no protecting! All you've done is harm! You think that you're a good father by being strict! When in fact you're the worst father-" SLAP!!
Serena fell back to the floor. Ilene brought her hands to her mouth.
"Serena!" Darien knelt down beside her. "Daijoubou?" She didn't answer. She just had her hand on her right cheek.
Darien looked up at Ken with an angry face. Ken brought his hand back down to his side.
"How dare you hit you own daughter?" Ilene asked walking from behind and stopping beside Ken. "She's five months pregnant! You could have hurt her!"
Ilene walked up to where Darien and Serena were and knelt down. She put her hands on Serena's' shoulder's. "Oh Serena, are alright sweetie?"
Serena looked up to her mother with teary eyes. Ilene noticed that she was very pale and was breathing hard. [She looks so weak.] Ilene thought to herself. "Okaa-san." Serena said before hugging her mother.
Ken's expression changed. He didn't seem angry anymore. Rather, he had a look of regret. A sad look as well. He lowered his head.
"Gomen Nasai." Ken said suddenly.
Ilene and Serena pulled away and looked at him.
Ken looked at Serena. He was crying. "I don't know what came over me. I guess it's because there was a man I didn't know in you room. I got worried, so." he paused. "Please forgive me."
"Otou-san." Serena got up and ran to hug her father. Ilene and Darien got up as well.
Serena let go of her father and told him "Since you don't know him, I'll introduce you." She went back to where Darien was and Ilene went to Ken.
"Otou-san. Okaa-san. " she began. She looked at Darien and grabbed his hand. Then looked back at her parents. "This is Darien." she paused. She was nervous. [What will my father say when I tell him that I'm expecting Darien's child?] ".Darien is." she paused again. "Darien is the father of my child." She finished off.
There was silence.
Ken didn't yell. In fact, he didn't say anything at all. Except smile, along with Ilene.
"You're. not mad?" Serena asked in confusion.
Ken shook his head. "Not really. I'm actually glad it was Darien and not some high school punk who was only looking for some fun with girls. Now I see why he's here. He must've been worried about you since you haven't gone to school or answered any of your friends calls." He looked at Darien. "I'm glad you're still by my daughter's side."
Darien was surprised, and confused, that Ken went from furious to glad in just a few minutes, but he was glad all the same. "Thank you for understanding."
"I think we should give them some time alone, dear." Ilene suggested to Ken. Then she turned to Serena and Darien. "You're welcome to stay the night, Darien."
Darien nodded. Then Ilene and Ken left.
Serena turned to Darien who was looking at her. "I'm glad you're here with me." She said with a smile.
Darien smiled back at her. "It's late. You should go to sleep."
"What about you? My mom said it was alright if you stayed." He noticed how pale and weak she looked. And she was trembling.
He tried to ignore it and smiled. "Alright. I'll stay."
Serena smiled at him and gave him a hug. Darien held her tight to his body, as if it were the last time. A tear slid down his cheek.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was morning. Darien had stayed in Serena's bedroom all night. He sat up and looked at Serena who was still asleep. She was lying right side up with her head facing him.
He reached over and shook her slightly to wake her up. "Serena.
She didn't move.
He shook her again. "Serena?"
She still didn't move. Darien was getting worried now. She didn't seem to be breathing.
[No! This can't be happening! It can't!] He shook her again, this time harder. "Serena." He kept shaking her. "Serena. please wake up. Serena."
