DaisyAnimeluvr: Thankies for reviewing! I found a pretty good illness on google! hehe! I reaserched! LOL You will see what it is in this chapter!

Great Detective: Thanks for the review also, but about what I said, I didn't really mean to offend anyone. The story seemed kind of down to me and I was trying to lighten things up with my sense of humor, but everyone has a different kind of humor I guess. What ever I say, I don't mean it offensively.

Disclaimer: All these characters belong to Gosho Aoyama. Even though I wish Kaito belongs to me. XD Might be a bit of language too, but not too much.

CHAPTER 4: Emotions

Mrs.Kuroba visited her son at the hospital first thing in the morning. When she saw his face pity began to sink in her heart. Her son looked was very pale and had ghost like features. He had deep-set eyes and his face seemed expressionless. It looked as if he aged years just in one night. She put her hand on his forehead. He was burning up. She stoked his face. Then the doctor came in.

"Ah, good to see you this morning Kuroba-san," he greeted.

"Good morning doctor. So, is Kaito going to be alright?" she asked him.

"We're not completely certain," he told her. Fear began to strike her. "Last night after you and the Mouri's left, Kaito-kun began having some problems."

"What's wrong with him?"

"He has Marburg haemorrhagic fever."

"What's that?"

"It's a very severe illness that is very hard to cure. Last night Kaito-kun began to cough up a tremendous amount of blood, but then he started getting a bit better, but then we realized that his temperature was way up. Then the rest of the night we observed him. He was getting real bad headaches and muscle pain. He was also having some respitory problems. That's when we found out what he had, but even though he was in very bad condition he sure was hard headed! He kept on trying to get out of bed and do things for himself. Then he escaped for about five minutes, but then we found him in the cafeteria munching on a bag of chips he got with the money I forgot to take on the table in his room. There was a lot of arguing last night between him and I!" He laughed

Mrs.Kuroba laughed too. "That's my boy!" That lightened her mood a little bit.

"Oh yes, and I suggest being a bit careful when you're too close to him. The illness he has is very contagious."

"How did he get it?"

"I'm not quite sure. It seems very rare to get it here in Japan. It mostly occurs in counties in Africa and Europe. You get infected by getting in close contact with blood and body fluids from other victims. So it's quite a mystery how he got it."

I'm sure he got it at one of his heists somehow, she thought.

"Well, we'll try our best to make sure your son will come back home safe and sound, but seeing how he acted last night, he seems pretty strong. I'm sure he's going to pull through." The doctor looked at Mrs.Kuroba and smiled. "I'll just leave you and your son alone right now. Remember, don't get too close!" Then he walked out the door.

She looked back at her son and almost cried.

"Mom," said a weak voice.

"Kaito, you're awake?" Mrs.Kuroba was quite surprised. "You should go back to sleep! You really need your rest!"

"I'm not sleepy at all, just a bit tired."

"Isn't that almost the same thing?"

Kaito wanted to smile, but his lips wouldn't let him. "I'm alright. I've been awake for the past five hours. I just pretended to be asleep so that annoying doctor wouldn't bother me and get on my nerves!"

"You know, he's just trying to help you," she told her son.

Kaito rolled his eyes. "Yeah, but it just seems so annoying when he's doing stuff! I just wish he would go away! Do you know how long we argued? You know, he really sucks at come backs!"

Mrs.Kuroba giggled. "You're just cranky because you wanted a nice looking female doctor."

"Actually yes." His mother giggled again. He was glad to see that she was a little bit happy. He hated to see people cry, especially over him. "Hey, aren't you having a job interview tomorrow?"

"Well, I was but then I'm going to cancel it tonight."

"But why?"

"You need me more than anyone else at this time! If I got the job I would be gone all day."

"No mom!" he snapped. "I know how much you wanted that job, and I don't want to get in your way. I mean, this kind of job is really difficult to get. You were so very lucky you got chosen to get interviewed! It's not everyday you get the chance to be secretary at one of the most prestigious companies in the country!"

"I think you're more important than some job."

"But there's really good pay!"

"I think you're more important than money too. We're not exactly poor so I can live as a stay home mom a bit longer."

Kaito's voice began to get softer. "Please mom…." She looked at him straight in the eye. "I really want you to go to the interview. I want you to get that job, and I know you really want it. I hate it when I get in the way of people's hopes." Then he paused and thought about Aoko. His eyes were getting watery, but no tears came out yet. "Please go…If not for yourself, then do it for me."

Mrs.Kuroba could see that her son was hurting inside. It wasn't because of the illness, but because of something else, something emotional that was making his condition even worse. Tears rolled down her face. "Oh, Kaito…." She grabbed her son and held him tight, but she was careful so she wouldn't get sick too.

Kaito heard his mother sobbing. "Mom, are you alright?"

She sniffed. "Don't worry, Kaito. I'm fine, and I will go to the interview. I'll go just for you." She let go of her son and looked at him. Then she smiled. "I love you Kaito."

Kaito's face was still emotionless, but he said, "I love you too mom." She leaned over and kissed him on the forehead.

As the school bell rang, all the kids were rushing into their classrooms all at once. It was raining outside, and nobody really wanted to get wet, except for the odd people. It was getting very crowded in the halls. Luckily for Aoko, she left for school very early so she didn't need to deal with the student traffic. She saw Keiko running in the hall.

She ran past her classroom then noticed that she did. When she ran through the door her umbrella couldn't fit through, then she fell back. She was so much in a rush to get to her classroom that she forgot to close her umbrella.

"Wow, Keiko. You're in a big rush this morning!" Aoko laughed. "So what's with you?"

"It's Kaito!"

"Kaito? Oh yeah, he's not here. I barely noticed. Not that I wanted to notice, but you know what I mean. He's either in the girls restroom since no one is in the locker room until after lunch, or he's too embarrassed or ashamed to show his face at school because of something last night."

"Last night? So you know what happened?"

"Of course! He was the one who told me..." She stopped for a moment. Even though she really hated Kaito's guts for the past week, she couldn't tell anyone who he actually was. Not even her father. She was about to tell him that night, but she couldn't do it. She didn't have the courage to.

"Tell you what?"

"Oh, nothing! Just being stupid!" She gave a nervous laugh. "So what's the news?"

"Kaito! Kaito!"

"Yeah. Yeah. Does he actually want to apologize to someone and admit his mistakes?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about but-"

"Kuroba's in the hospital," blurted Hakuba.

"Oh what happened? Did he accidentally have a bite of fish?"

"It's really nothing to be joking around about," Hakuba said. Then Akako walked in the room. She took off her new expensive looking tight leather rain coat.

"Kuroba's very sick. He passed out on the street last night and was rushed to the hospital."

Aoko gave them a weird look. "How come you guys know this and I don't?"

Keiko pocked her forehead. "It's something called the news, smart one!" Aoko rolled her eyes. She didn't look a bit at all concerned. "I thought you watched the news, Aoko."

"It must have slipped my mind."

Akako looked at Aoko. "Oh? I'm quite surprised. Knowting that you and Kuroba have been really good friends for a long time, I expected you to at least a bit concerned."

"Nope! Not at all! I'm perfectly fine! If you ask me, I think he deserves that after all he's put me through. Besides, knowing him he'll be out of the hospital within days! Or at least try to escape from it!" She laughed, but everyone else looked disappointed. "What?"

"Ok, class! May I have your attention!" shouted the teacher. They each took their seats and class started. All the desks were full except for that one desk next to Aoko.

Kaito's mother was with him all day at the hospital, but once visiting hours were over she was told to go home.

"Goodnight Kaito! Get some rest! I'll be here tomorrow, but I might come in the afternoon because of my interview. Bye bye sweetie! I love you!"

Kaito was a bit embarrassed. "Just go already! Oh, and good luck on your interview!"

Mrs.Kuroba looked at her son once more before she left. He was talking normal, but didn't look it. He had no expression all day and hadn't seen even once smile on his face. She was a bit worried. She wanted to stay with her son all night but she couldn't. She knew there was something on his mind bothering him, but every time she tried to ask him what it was he always would change the subject or stay silent. Her thoughts finally cleared up then she left the room.

Once his mother left, he felt a bit lonely. Then a nurse walked in. It was a female one of course, a pretty female one. That lightened up Kaito's mood one hundred percent.

"Hello, I'm Sophia Watanabe. I'll be in here quite a lot, and I'm just making sure you know so I don't bother you." Her Japanese wasn't very good.

Bother him? Now way! "I'm sure you won't." The nurse smiled. "Hey, are you Japanese, because your first name sounds different."

"I am, but I wasn't born here. I've been living in Japan for about eight months. I was born and raised in America then I moved here with my uncle so we could work together in this hospital. I just barely learned my Japanese. I wanted to take French, but then he told me we were moving here."

"I see. Who is your uncle?"

"Oh, Dr.Watanabe."

Kaito was a bit confused. He didn't really know any of the doctor's names.

"You know, that doctor you were arguing with last night."

"Oh that guy!"

The nurse smiled. "I need to take your temperature now." She took out a thermometer and placed it in his mouth. "Oh no, I forgot! This is the broken one! Luckily I brought another one just in case." She winked.

Why would she bring another thermometer? Oh well, it must me some American thing, thought Kaito. Then the other thermometer was placed in his mouth.

The nurse didn't look too happy. "My, my! You better get your rest. You're temperature is very high. I'm surprised you're acting alright."

"That's because I am alright."

"No you're not! When I come in here again I expect you to at least have your eyes closed or else I'll give you the sleeping gas!" She was just joking around.

"All night. Goodnight."

Aoko was washing the dished before she went to bed. He father wasn't home yet so she turned on the TV. The news was on.

"Kaitou Kid will strike again!" said the news reported.

As soon as Aoko heard that, she turned off the TV. Her blood began to boil. "You're the one who's taking my dad away from me! I hate you…"

"Tonight Inspector Nakamori received a note from Kid in the mail."

"Another Kid heist? I'm definitely going to be there!" Conan said out loud.

"What was that Conan?"

"Oh, uh….nothing Ran-neechan!"

"Hey look! A Kid heist! Dad, can we go?"

"You kids can, but I'm not. I don't feel like dealing with Nakamori."

"You hear that Conan!"

"Yep! I did!"

"Kid's next target...The Blue Child."

Mrs.Kuroba stared at the TV in shock. She became even more worried.

Dis chappie is done! I decided to kill the post traumatic syndrome thingy. It didn't really fit well so I decided to throw it way. XD And also, the chapter titel might be a bit weird...like me! LOL I cou;dn't really think of anything. Oh, and I also discovered the magic line! Yippe! lmao! I shall be using that now to separate events. hehe! On, and one more thing, the Marburg haemorrhagic fever thingy, if you know a lot about please don't be a know-it-all and tell me that my information has some errors in it. I might have made things a bit more drastic, but the infor seems to be pretty accurate. I didn't really describe it well because I wasn't too sure how to put it into my own words so I tried my best. Okies, that's all! I hoped you enjpyed this chapter! Maybe the next one will be up in a few days or a couple weeks. Most likely a few days depending on the stuff I have to do for school.
