When they had reached the hospital, Roy had lost quite a lot of blood. He was still unconscious.
After a few hours, Roy was still unconscious. "Miss Hawkeye, your friend could have died just now. It looks like this box had saved his life. The knife would have plunged right into his heart if not for this box. If he is still unconscious after 5 days, he is in mighty danger." A wedding ring? Looks like he was about to propose…
"This is…a wedding ring?" He wanted to propose………… colonel……
Day after day after day, Riza would stay in the hospital, hoping to see Roy wake up.
One day, Ed and all the others came to visit Roy.
"Riza, you can't keep doing this. You'll be worn out. I'll take care of the colonel. Go home and rest." Maria's heart hurt to see her friend all worn out.
"How's the colonel?" "It's fast becoming 5 days, will the colonel be alright?"
"Riza, go home. You can't keep doing this."
Though so many questions had been asked, Riza only answered "I'm fine. He will be alright."
"Well, since you said so, we'll go first. Take care, Riza." Edward was so worried about both the colonel and the lieutenant. Although Roy was a bastard, he had helped him a lot in the past.
"Lieutenant, you have missed many days of work. If you can finish up your work for 3 days, you can come back and take care of the colonel. This is an order."
The Fuhrer had come! Everybody saluted and went silent. "Yes sire." Riza couldn't disobey the Fuhrer's orders.
After visiting hours were over, Riza left with the others. She had to wake up early to finish all her missed work. The next day, she went to the office and started to do her work. The paperwork on Roy's table was like mountains. Luckily, Roy had made a stamp of his signature. She then started to work on both her and Roy's workload.
This is so annoying. How could the colonel stand this? I mean, all the words……
Finally, after hours of rushing, she finished 'signing' the last paper. After that, she rushed to the hospital. It was the same as usual, he hadn't woke up yet. Just then, she saw the small box. She had never opened it. However, when she opened it, she saw the prettiest thing in the world. The ring had a small diamond in the middle. It had gold streaks across the ring.
It was just so slim. Surprisingly, it was her size. She hoped that the colonel wouldn't die.
Out of desperation, she tried shaking the colonel. But he still didn't wake up. She was on the brink of breaking down when two eyes slowly stirred open. Roy was conscious. Finally She tried to get up, but Roy wouldn't let her. "Colonel, let go of me."
"No." "1…2….3….." GREAT! Just when I needed my gun the most. Slap.
"Let go of me. Now!" "Never.." They struggled and somehow….ended up in a bundle.
Not to mention that, they were kissing!
