Chapter 4- Mai's Little Surprise
Tominari parked his car in the college lot and unloaded his things and Mai's things. Together they walked up to Mai's dorm where they said their goodbyes for a short time and walked into their own dorms.
"Well..." Kana asked suspiciously.
"Well what?" Mai said toying with her biffle.
"You know!" Kana said irritated.
"Oh, okay. Well his name's Tominari, and ..." Then she told Kana everything.
"Oh, so he finally came for you again." Kana said thinking.
"Again?" Mai said puzzled.
"Oops! Oh, Tominari won't be happy. Maybe he should tell you, it'd be better, and safer, if you heard it from him." Kana said turning her head away from her friends glare.
"Fine." Mai said angrily getting up and stalking down the hall to Tominari's room.
Banging open the door she stared at Ari and tapped her foot impatiently.
"Hello, sweetheart." Ari said smiling wide, trying to hide his fear.
"Don't you hello sweetheart me. You've come for me before haven't you??? Why didn't you tell me!" Mai said her eyes tearing, he voice sounded like she was pleading for her life.
"Oh Mai. Kana said something didn't she? You weren't supposed to know." Ari said grabbing her and holding her tight to him.
She cried into the warmth of his body, her shoulders heaving. 'What secret does he have from me, and why? Why am I so upset, maybe, I'm a little too emotional...' Mai thought.
He stroked her hair gently, and said soothing words, "Dearest, we'll talk about it later, you need to get settled and I need to call someone, so go calm down and I'll come for you later dearest."
Silently Mai walked back to her room, Kana looked at her and hugged her saying I'm so so sorry over and over again.
Mai laid out her things and got settled then she lay down on her bed with a plop, staring at the ceiling. Soon her eyelids felt heavy and they began to close. Kana noticed this and went to speak with Ari.
Next Morning...
'Ugh... I don't feel so well.' Mai thought, then she moaned slightly and her stomach growled. 'It's probably just 'cause I'm hungry.' Mai stood up and saw that Kana had left her some breakfast, blueberry pancakes and orange juice, good ole' Kana.
While she was eating she heard a knock at the door, "Come in."
"Hello, wanna talk?" Ari said shyly.
"Yes, please." Mai said finishing her breakfast.
"I had to call InuYasha first to see if it was okay to tell you this. So here goes, you and me, we're married. Let me explain, see, you were 18 when I finally found you. You and me were about to be married when, in the shrine your father speaks up and says, she's too young. So I say, let me marry her please. After a long debate your father consents to my wishes but if he sees one sign of you being stressed he'll erase this memory from ever being. Well as it turns out, you became pregnant. You got worried and made yourself very sick and InuYasha he got mad, he made Kagome erase your memory and the baby, it died. So before I left you forever I told him that when you were 22, I'd come for you again., but you see, you didn't remember me or our love, and so I thought it best to make you remember how much I loved you before I told you we were married." Tominari took a breath and looked and Mai.
"I was... we were.. I am? Uh oh." Mai stuttered nervously.
"Uh oh?" Tominari said concerned.
"Yes, Ari this morning, I didn't feel so well, and I said hey, I must be hungry, but I think I'm sick. And, and, college starts again tomorrow, how will I ever major in writing and cooking if I don't take the classes?" Mai said getting worked up.
"Whoa, calm down, we'll goto the doctor and ask him. It'll be okay." Ari said kindly kissing her forehead.
Later in the Day at the Doctor's Office....
"I have good news and bad news." The doctor said slowly.
"Okay tell me." Ari said speaking to the doctor outside the room Mai was in.
"Your wife is pregnant, but she is very stressed and that might zap her strength from her and the baby, possibly killing both of them. I say she should ask the teachers to help and take the courses when she can, over a longer period of time for her safety." The doctor said slowly.
"Okay, I will... wait she's... really? MAI!" Ari screamed.
(Haha, what a cliffie, hey its cool though, I'm awesome!)
