My Heart Beats Where
"It's not that your heart beat is making you alive but rather who's letting your heart
'beat' like that in order for you to live... and love."
Prologue
"Kanata, Ari's in the hospital" Santa rushed inside the lockers to inform Kanata about his girlfriend. "What?" Kanata's expression was replaced with fear and concern after what Santa has said. "She was brought there an hour ago." Kanata dashed out of the school not minding about running towards the hospital.
By the time he arrived, all heads turned to his direction and squeals came from the people approaching him. He quickly ran away from the commotion that's about to happen and went straight to his girlfriend's doctor.
"How is she?"
"Not good."
"What do you mean? You said she-s"
"I told you before; we couldn't prevent this from happening. Ms. Shiwamura is dying and there's nothing we could do about it... and you, Kanata, have to accept it." The doctor said as calm as possible despite the look that Kanata was giving her.
"That's not true! You're just unable to do so, charge her for release and I'll take her to a better hospital!" Kanata exclaimed looking at the doctor sternly. "Kanata, listen to me. Ari has a malignant brain cancer. Do you understand what malignant is? She could die anytime and only a miracle could save her life." Kanata was close to crying as she said this.
"Then do a miracle..." The doctor comforted Kanata for a while before she left him alone. Kanata cried in silence not knowing what to do without Ari. She has been his life and what would life be without life itself? Moments later, a man that seemed to be a teacher along with a student sat on the chair in front, and they too had the same pained expression as Kanata's. He heard the student talking...
"Sensei, what will happen now?"
"I don't know Yuki... I... don't...know"
Kanata stopped crying as he realized that it wasn't just him who's in this situation. Funny how others felt the same... funny how they could be losing someone they loved just as how he was losing his.
The door burst open on both sides of the corridor. "Kanata, Ari wants to see you."
ooooooooooooo
"Sir, are you Mr. Kozouki?"
"No, I'm Jin Komo, her teacher. Her parents are in America... please tell me what happened." His voice sounded tired as well as his features, He was like a father to Miyu and he didn't want something bad to happen to her. "I'm afraid that the only chance of Ms. Kozouki to live is through undergoing a heart transplant."
"We're willing to pay any amount."
"We'll try to find a donor Mr. Komo"
ooooooooooooo
"Ari... please tell me you're alright."
"Kanata... you know that I'll always be fine."
"No you're not... and now you're leaving me"
"Who told you so? The doctors?" Ari gazed at the handsome features of kanata and smiled lovingly. "I'll never leave you Kanata... you know that. Maybe you won't see me around but I'm always where your heart beats." She was slowly dozing off as she tried to hold on. "Ari... you're leaving me"
"Only if you wanted me to"
