Disclaimer: You know this I don't own Haruka or Michiru of course if Naoko is tired of them I gladly could accept them…
Thanks for your reviews, I'm realliy inspired as you can see, ok so with no further delay here's the next chapter:
Chapter 27: Bargain
"I need you to be strong Michiru, there's something I have to tell you..."
Michiru lay down the fork and quit eating her dessert, she looked at Kay concerned but calm. "What is it?"
"Hazuko is trying to get you out of the Tenoh Manor"
Michiru sighted and zipped her tea. "I knew that'll happen eventually, what can I do?"
"The truth Michi, not much, everything belongs to Haruka, you have not a leasing contract do you?"
"Of course not, I have not paid rent in over 3 years, Haruka pays for almost everything, I was a guest in her house, so how long till he kicks me out?"
"A few weeks, perhaps less, there's not a thing to your name is it?"
"No... wait! The check book has my name on it..."
"What check book?"
"The one which we use to pay the bills, all the services have been paid under my name, I signed the checks, electricity, gas, groceries, everything, it's Haruka's money but..."
"Legally it's yours! Michi this can prove Haruka shared the house with you..."
"But not that I own the house, it is still her house..."
"Yes but it'll took longer for Hazuko to get you out of the house, time is priceless, you can wait till Haruka..." Kay didn't finished the sentence, Michiru looked worried. "She'll wake up Michi don't worry..."
"I know she will... I just can't stand not being by her side, I wish I could see her just a minute, just one..."
"There must be a way Michi we'll find it"
---------------o--------------o----------
"You are a monster and I hate you!"
"You are my daughter Tazuka and you'll respect me"
"How can you do this to us? Do you think when Haruka wakes up she'll forgive you for this? She'll never talk to you in her life! And so will I! You're are screwing things up, Haruka would make you pay for this!"
"Listen to me Taz, I'm the only thing you got left, Haruka may wake up but the doctors say she'll probably be unacapable of taking care of herself so don't count on that, you better calm down or I won't let you see her either"
"I'm not your daughter, I'm not the daughter of a monster..." Taz burst into tears of desolation. "Please Haruka wake up, we need you"
----------------o---------------o------------
Ring, ring
"Tenoh's residence"
"Mrs. Tenoh? I need to talk to you"
"Who is this?"
"Michiru Kaioh"
"Miss Kaioh, I'm surprised, what can I do for you?"
"I need you help Barbra, please..."
"There's nothing I can do Michiru, I'm deeply sorry"
"Yes there is, I need you to tell Hazuko to speak to me, I got a deal for him"
"Michiru, why don't you wait for things to get a little more calm? Hazuko is a good man but he loves his daughters too much"
"Please you're the only one who can help me"
"Fine, I'll try Michiru I promise"
"Thanks so much..."
-----------o---------------o-------------
"This is not a smart move Michiru"
"I need to see her Kay, no matter the price, I need to see her"
"Ok but, ok you're right, there here comes that monster."
Hazuko Tenoh entered the hospital's cafeteria looking annoyed, the only reason why he was here was because Barbra insisted so much.
"Good evening"
"Good evening Mr. Tenoh, this is my lawyer, Mrs. Kayarumi Hashja"
"Nice to meet you Mrs. Hashja"
"Tenoh..."
"So what is it? I told you Miss Kaioh and I thought I was clear, that you're not allowed in this place."
"I have a deal for you"
"What can you possible trade with? There's nothing you have that I want"
"That's not entirely true Mr. Tenoh, here's the deal: You let me see her 5 minutes and I would leave Tenoh's manor."
"Interesting but no, anyway I'm getting the house back"
"Yeah well but you'll get into a nasty fight, that's what you want? The press knowing this? Haruka is a public figure, so am I, imagine the publicity, and the trail, It'll last for months, even years, the checks of the house expenses have my mane on them, so you cannot allegate I was a stranger in the house..."
"I see your lawyer has instruct you right..."
"So we have a deal"
"5 minutes, but if you ask me Miss I think I got the good side of the bargain"
Michiru smiled. "That's cause you don't know the power of Love Hazuko, take me to see her."
"Sure Michiru I'm a man of word, I hope you'll honor your word as well"
"As soon as I get out of here, I'll...pack my things and leave don't worry"
---------------o------------------o-----------
Michiru took a deep breath and enter the room, besides her determination of remain cool, she could felt her heart breaking when she saw Haruka laid down in that tiny and cold bed. She approached the bed slowly. "Haruka, it's me" Michiru knew Haruka could not answer but deep inside she knew she could hear her. She placed her hand on Haruka's, with her eyes full of tears. "I'm sorry Haruka, I'm sorry I just came here, I should have been taking care of you, but don't worry we'll get out of these I promise."
Michiru looked at her lover, so fragile that make her shiver. "See Haruka? NO tears, no more tears, I won't cry anymore I'll support us I'll take us out of these, but I need you to do something for me Ruka, I need you to wake up, I need you. Taz needs you too...please Haruka wake up, I love you, do you undertsand? I love you Ruka." Michiru hold Haruka's hand a place a gentle kiss on it, she could sense Haruka's feelings, she was in pain but she was happy to see her there. "Besides, you do know many things for the wedding are not refundable right? And I'm not willing to give back the presents...I... Oh Haruka why? Why destiny keeps placing these obstacles between us ah? Please love wake up, I'll be here waiting for you, no one is going to take you away from me, not your father not even fate, you better come back or I'll go haunt you..."Michiru's voice break but she didn't cry she was keeping her promise to Haruka, she owed her.She leaned and gently kissed Haruka's lips...
"That's five minutes Kaioh, now please leave"
Michiru turn to look at Haruka's father, she closed her eyes in a silent pray, and stand up to face him. "I know why are you doing this Hazuko, but you're wrong, this won't bring your daughters back to you, can't you see I'm not the enemy? You're too blind to see it but there's enough love in Haruka for both of us for everyone... it's ok. I forgive you"
"I don't need your forgiveness"
"Hate is your enemy Tenoh, hate is the one forbiding you the love of Haruka not me, she'll wake up and come back to me cause our love is stronger than time itself cause our hearts are part of the same single soul..."
"Please Miss get out"
"You know I'm right..." Michiru turn to leave, when she realized Taz was on the door, when she saw her, Taz throw to her arms.
"Michi! You're here! Oh God Michiru..."
"Shh, everyhting is going to be fine"
"Tazuka! Get away from her,she's not allowed here!"
"I hate you did you hear me?"
Michiru embrasse Tazuka once more and whisper to her ear. "I need you to take care of her for me Taz, don't fight ok? I got a plan don't worry"
Taz nodded and let her go. Michiru walked outside the room, Hazuko followed her.
"See Miss Kaioh? I told you it was fruitless for you to see her, she's still in a coma"
"Love is never fruitless, she'll wake up, you'll see..." Michiru left with her head high. "More than ever Hazuko I'll prove you wrong" Michiru was not defeated she just have start fighting.
