Chapter 3
Eiji sat in her bedroom, bored………………to death. Syusuke and Saeki wouldn't be at her house until the afternoon. Eiji stared at the alarm clock beside her bed. 'I'm so bored that I keep staring at the clock every 5 seconds.' Eiji thought and sighed. The baby was due in two months time. Oishi, who used to be called mother of Seigaku, was as worried as ever.
Eiji finally let out an angry growl and walked to the living room. 'I wonder how Syusuke is coping with this?' she thought as she played the tape that she recorded. It was the news. Tezuka's company has been the top rating company in the whole of Japan. The screen was scanning through the people working there. They later showed the project manager, Tezuka Kunimitsu. A lady with greenish black hair had encircled her arms around his waist. Eiji felt a bit uncomfortable.
She finally got up and changed the tape to a comedy. 'I hope Syusuke is okay.' She thought before she started laughing at the jokes in the comedy. That's Eiji for you.
In school………………………………………..
Syusuke made sure her personal problems didn't affect her work. So class went on as usually………………………………….unfortunately. The class was playing a game which was that if you got the question wrong, you get a cross on your face. Nearly half the population of guys in the class walked out of the classroom after school with marker on their faces.
Saeki later drove her to pick up Kunishiro before going to Eiji's house. When they were about to ring the door bell, they heard a soft cry. Exchanging glances, Saeki and Syusuke tried to force through the door. When the door opened, they found Eiji lying on the floor, her water bag has burst.
'Saeki, carry her to the car, we've got to get her to the hospital!' Syusuke said as she dialed Oishi's mobile phone on her cell phone. 'Hello?' 'Oishi! Syusuke here! Eiji's water bag has burst!' 'What?! The baby wasn't suppose to be due till 2 months later?!' 'I know and we are now sending her to the hospital!' 'We? Who's with you and Eiji?' 'Saeki! I have to go! I'll send Eiji to the hospital with Saeki!' 'Ok! Ok! I'll be waiting for you guys!' Syusuke off her mobile phone and sat at the back seat to comfort Eiji. Eiji was practically screaming now.
As Saeki drove to the hospital, Eiji held onto Syusuke's hands like a life line. The pain was blinding her vision with tears. 'Breathe in deeply! Come on Eiji! Breathe!' 'That's what I'm doing!!!' Eiji screamed before she cried out again in pain. 'Really. Are all women like this when they give birth?' Saeki thought and frowned as the screaming and crying was making his eyes twitch.
'Godmom, hang on.' Kunishiro chirped before receiving a struggled smile from Eiji. 'Thank you Kunishiro. I would if I wasn't in so much pain.' Eiji said sweetly before going back to her crying. Saeki sweatdropped. 'I have a feeling that was influenced by Syusuke.'
At the hospital……………………………….(delivery room)
As Oishi wasn't experienced at delivering a baby, his superior was going to do it. Eiji held onto Oishi's and Syusuke's hands tightly until you would think that there is no blood circulating in their hands. 'Syuichiro! I want to divorce you!' Eiji cried as she tried her best to push the baby out. Her statement shocked everyone. 'Huh? Why?' Oishi said, a bit heartbroken. 'If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be pregnant! I don't want to be in pain!!!!' Eiji cried as she tightened the grip on her best friend's hand and her husband's hand.
The people in the room all facefaulted and sweatdropped. 'That's a rare breed of wives we saw this week.' A nurse whispered to another as they served the meals.
Finally the baby came out. Everyone sighed in relief, especially Syusuke and Oishi, who were trying to get blood into their hands. 'Are you okay, Eiji?' Oishi asked as he stroked her face with the back of his hand. 'Nya. I'm so exhausted.' Eiji said. 'Well, that's no good because we got to get ready for the next one.' The superior said.
Everyone's eyes popped out of their sockets. 'Excuse me. Get ready for another what?!' Oishi asked. Eiji gripped onto his hand again. 'The next baby. You have twins Oishi.' At that, Oishi fainted. 'Syuichiro!!! I'm supposed to be the one who fainted!!!' Eiji yelled at the unconscious Oishi.
'You didn't know? This has never happened before.' The superior said, surprised. 'Well now it did, didn't it?' Syusuke said politely with her eyes opened. 'How could you not know about this?' the superior said. 'All I know was that there were two heartbeats. I thought is it was just me and the baby's. Then they said the heartbeat was strong and I thought good since I am having a baby nya!' Eiji said before the pain came back again. Everyone sweatdropped.
'At least we know now right?' Saeki said before Eiji yanked his hand as squeezed it. Saeki bit on his lips. How can Oishi and Sysusuke stand it? This was like trying to break his bones!!! When the child was delivered, Oishi accompanied Eiji to her room. Syusuke, Kunishiro and Saeki walked to the canteen to eat.
Seeing Eiji giving birth brought back lots of memories………………………………..
Tezuka carried Syusuke to the hospital. Syusuke was crying and blood was all over her. While walking down the stairs together, a group of teenagers ran past them and accidentally pushed Syusuke down. She was 7 moths pregnant. It was lucky they were in the hospital, visiting Tezuka's father who had broke his leg.
Tezuka was panicking as more blood dripped onto the floor. Syusuke can hardly see Tezuka's face. All of a sudden everything was black. When she woke up, she saw Tzuka at her bedside asleep. On the other side of her bed, she saw a little baby boy sleeping soundly in his bed. Syusuke smiled and kissed Tezuka's forehead. He saved two lives. 'Thank you Kunimitsu.' She whispered before falling back asleep with an am around her husband………………………………………………………………………………..
The memories stopped there. Syusuke smiled gently as she watched Saeki and Kunishio play 'poke me'. Apparently, Kunishiro started it first. It was quite amusing seeing a grown man poking a 3year old boy. She chuckled. Then she suddenly thought about Tezuka and that lady. She mentally shook her head and sighed. 'I really want to believe Kunimitsu isn't betraying me.' Then she had a flash of the lady brushing her lips against Tezuka's and Tezuka smiling. 'But do I believe what I see or not?' A piece of Syusuke's heart fell into a sea of darkness.
