At the hospital Akira had once again been asked to wait outside while the doctors and nurses put Kazu into bed. When she was finally allowed to see her brother, nothing could have prepared her for what she was. It was devastating. Her little brother had been connected to so many machines; he looked like a Cyborg. There was a machine to track his heartbeats per minute; a machine constantly measuring his blood pressure which was extremely low, a wire in this nose to open his airway, an oxygen mask to give him the right amount of Oxygen levels his blood needed and the final machine was the life support machine that the paramedics had mentioned. Akira's eyes filled with tears and she suddenly felt sick, with the help of a nurse she was able to sit down and with a shaky hand she managed to touch her brother's hair. "Kazuhiro… I…-"She tried to speak to him but she couldn't find the words she wanted to say. Instead she cried; she cried in front of her little brother, something she hadn't done since that birthday party all those years ago.
"Don't cry" came a voice from behind her.
Akira raised her head, wiping a tear she turned to see the face of the familiar voice she had just heard. Her parents were standing in the doorway. "Oh mom." She said, running to her.
Her mother held Akira in her arms. "There, there honey." She said, trying to comfort her. "It's ok." She sighed… he'll be ok…
Akira nodded. "I'm going to get some air." She said walking past her parents out of the door.
"I'll come with you." Her father called, thinking she shouldn't be on her own right now.
"I'd rather be alone right now, dad… sorry." She said, her back still turned away, then she continued walking. She stopped at the toilet, she looked in the mirror, her blue eyes were red from crying, and her white hair was messy; she felt like she needed a shower. She splashed her face with water and left the bathroom, heading outside.
When she returned to her brother's hospital room, Kazu and her parents were all sleeping. She looked at the clock; it was 11:30pm. "What a day…" she said, putting her head on her fathers shoulder. Her dad woke her mother, they said their goodbyes and left the hospital as visiting time had finished hours ago and the nurses needed to do their next set of checks on Kazuhiro.
