Maron was crying on the floor when she heard a voice.
"Maron why are you crying?" said Chiaki in a weak voice.
Maron looked up at him and even though she could tell that he was sick he was smiling at her. She stood up and looked at him how can he smile like that in his condition?
"Chiaki do you know how you got sick?" Maron said her eyes full of tears.
At first he didn't say anything thinking about what he could have done to make himself sick. Then it came to him that demon he fought a week ago; he feel and cut his leg on peace of metal. He lifted up his pant leg afraid to see what was there. To his and Maron's horror it was infected badly.
"Chiaki?" said Maron, "How did you get that cut on your leg?"
He didn't say any thing he knew if he told her how he got that wound she would find out he was Sinbad.
"I feel of the bleachers around the track at school." He said chuckling like it was a game.
"Ok I'll call the hospital at my house you stay here ok?"
"Alright don't take too long"
She walked to her apartment next door thinking to herself. I know he's lying I won't pressure him into telling me the truth, not now at least. I'm glad he's awake now I wasn't thinking straight.
She hung up the phone after talking to the hospital; they would be there in 10 minuets. So she went back next door. She sat at the edge of Chiaki's bed and looked at him. He looked back at her and she blushed.
"There going to be here in 10 minuets," she told him. I hope he's going to be alight, "Did you want me to stay with you until they come?"
"Please stay," he said I hope they don't cut off my leg!
She looked at him and saw the fear in his eyes, "Ok, I'll stay." She said softly.
