AN:/ HEY GUYS, I'm still looking for a beta but i do have a Ulquiorra beta Tamu-chan and if there is anyone you know please tell them to PMS me. Thank you.
tokiluvnonu: thank you and I do what you mean. I'm always reading my stories and I see mistakes and it doesn't make me happy. I am looking for a beta and I'm nervous with excitement. Don't worry, I'm writing it currently and it will update soon.
Black-Wolf-2631: thank you for reviewing. Orihime will be going back to eating her normal food soon enough. I might keep Murcielago showing up in all the chapters.
Recap:
"Yay, I'm going to look just like you," he said happily. He put it on and grabbed Orihime's hand. They left the office to go out on Orihime's rounds. While they were doing the rounds Orihime gave him the whole tour of the hospital; the nurses and the other doctors gazed at Murcielago than at Orihime and each one would ask her the same question "is he your son?" and she would say the same answer "no, but he calls me mom." Orihime was already feeling exhausted and she wanted to go home but she had to finish her rounds. Murcielago was smiling with joy about being with Orihime but also he was happy that the male doctors weren't staring at his master's woman with lust filled eyes.
"Master Ulquiorra is going to be very proud of me" he thought.
Chapter 16: Accepting Pt 2?
The screen flicks on (again)
"Now men, we are in the Samaritan Hospital," said Mr. Thomas.
Everyone from the facility came to the hospital and is crowding up the hallway. Ulquiorra was looking around to see at least a sign of where the children's ward was located. After not seeing anything, Ulquiorra decided to wait. From the corner of his eye, Ulquiorra saw his boss having a conversation with a doctor and by the look of Mr. Thomas's expression it doesn't sound like good news.
"Well guys, it seems that our guide is in a meeting with the Higher-ups so my nephew, Dr. Mason, here is going to show us around and we'll be getting a chance to see their famous Pediatrician doing a surgery so please pay attention and don't get lost in here," he ordered.
"Thank you Uncle, now if you will gentlemen please follow me," said Dr. Mason.
Dr. Mason started walking down the hallway and the men followed him. He started giving them description of every room they passed by. He showed them the elderly ward, the E.R., I.C.U., the meeting room, the counseling meeting room, the scanning room, the judging room, the playroom for the children, the waiting room, the nursery room, the tech room, the mail shortening room and finally the observatory room where the surgery had already started.
The guests watched surgery from behind the glass windows in the observatory. Ulquiorra and Eric watched amazed at how the physician was performing on the unconscious baby. The way the doctor's hands moved was careful and elegant. It was like they were watching a dance performance or a battle between two skilled samurais. The observatory room was silent proof so they couldn't hear the doctor requesting utensils or the sounds of the instruments.
"How long does the surgery normally take?" Ulquiorra asked with curiosity.
"Surgeries usually take to 6 hours or more. It does depend on the condition of the patient or how many surgeons are in the room," Dr. Mason explained.
"I see," Ulquiorra said.
"It seems that I'm going to adjust at home a little more if Onna is going to stay after for surgery. Wait, what is Onna's role and which hospital does she work at? He thought. They viewed the remaining performance when Dr. Mason told them it was time to meet the Pediatrician near the children's ward. The architects and constructors followed him out the room.
"What does the Pediatrician look like? Is it a girl or boy?" Mr. Thomas asked.
"She is a girl and she looks beautiful, she's smart, witty, hardworking, determined, strong-willed, caring, loving and her personality is child-like. She's a surrogate mother to the kids and when she comes into the room the atmosphere changes from serious and cold to warm and exciting; everyone is smiling when they see her coming," he said in admiration.
"The way he describes the doctor sounds just like my wife," Ulquiorra said to Eric.
"To me it sounds like you're in love with this doctor," said Mr. Thomas ignoring Ulquiorra's statement.
"I am Uncle but sadly, she's married."
"I'm sorry my boy."
Dr. Mason and Mr. Thomas kept talking about love when Orihime came walking towards them while taking her scrunchy out of her hair; she sighed with relief of having her hair down. She was glad that the surgery was successful on Airi. It saddened Orihime thinking about a little baby having something like a tumor. Orihime glanced up and saw Ulquiorra walking with some people she barely knew, besides Eric, but she noticed that Dr. Mason talking with them. She decided to see what was up with the men and why they were standing near the opening of the children's ward.
"Good evening Dr. Mason how are you?" Orihime greeted with a professional tone.
"D-dr. Schiffer g-g-gggood day, I-I-I'm f-f-f-f-fine and y-you?" Dr. Mason stuttered.
"I'm fine, just a bit tired form doing the surgery earlier but other than that I'm good," Orihime said, "Um if you don't mind me asking what is with the crowd behind you?"
"Oh, th-they're f-from Mr. Scuklar's and Mr. Thomas's company to rebuild the children's ward."
"Really, I didn't know anything about this but that's fine. Hello Ulquiorra, Eric and gentlemen," Orihime smiled.
"Hello Onna, I didn't know you worked here," Ulquiorra greeted.
"Hi Orihime," Eric greeted. The others waved or smiled.
"I guess I forgot to tell you however you didn't tell me about this either so we're even," Orihime giggled. Ulquiorra glared at her and it made her giggle a bit more.
"What is so humorous Onna?" he asked while crossing his arms.
"Aw don't be like that Ulquiorra. I'm only kidding," Orihime said walking towards him so she could give him a hug. After she put her arms around him she felt him tense up from the new sensation. Ulquiorra didn't get why Orihime was on his person usually when someone was on his person it was for battle and he couldn't see Orihime doing that to him.
Dr. Mason gawked at Dr. Schiffer and one of his Uncle's employees hugging each other, well Orihime is doing all the hugging.
"Dr. S-schiffer, do you know this man?" he squeaked. Dr. Mason was hoping that she didn't but fate didn't give him that pleasure.
"Yes he's my husband," Orihime replied.
"H-he is?" asked Dr. Mason.
"Is there a problem of me being her husband," Ulquiorra glared at the man. Dr. Mason shivered from freight and he shooked his head while taking some steps backwards.
"Dr. S-s-s-s-schiffer, I-I-I'll leave t-t-them t-to you," he called hurryingly leaving so he could get away from Ulquiorra.
Orihime was left alone with the guys. She went back to staring at Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra; who was still in Orihime's grasped; felt someone gazing at him, he looked down to stare in purplish-gray eyes gazing at him. Ulquiorra stared back right at her and that began their staring contest.
"Onna, what are you doing?" Ulquiorra asked after a couple minutes passed.
"Oh, I forgot. Well, come on in and meet the kids," Orihime said, "and look around if you want."
Orihime grab hold to Ulquiorra's hand and walked inside the children's ward with men trailing behind her. Ulquiorra, who was still being dragged by Orihime, glanced around the room to see what needs to be fixed. The walls were crumbling, wallpaper were peeling, the ceiling tiles were lose and on the floor in pieces, the floorboards was sticking up and the nails were showing, the windows was cracked and the pipes were sticking out of the ceiling. Ulquiorra was appalled by the conditions that the children have to be in, especially for their health.
"Onna, what is the meaning of this rooms conditions?" he asked.
"I saw that too mean I first started. We don't let the kids sleep in here because of the state, the hard part is that the kids love this room and we always find them in here," Orihime explained
"This is unacceptable," Eric stated, "I wouldn't let my dog sleep in here."
"Hn," Ulquiorra grunted in agreed.
"Well,…..how about I introduce you to the kids," she said.
"Take us to these children and remember Onna, I don't 'worry.' I merely see what is not pleasing to my all seeing eye," Ulquiorra said.
Orihime was a bit upset with Ulquiorra's statement but she didn't say anything about or expressed it, she put on her 'smile' and instructed them to follow her. Ulquiorra had noticed that Orihime was fake smiling once again and he was wondering what happened. Orihime lead them to the playroom where all the kids were playing card games while Airi was sleeping after her surgery.
"I'm back everybody and I brought some visitors," Orihime announced. She got rampaged by the kids so hard that she fell on the ground.
"Dr. Inoue, your back from the dark room," said a blond boy.
"Yes I am and see that I was very much missed." The kids laughed at her and got off her. Orihime got up and smiled at them.
"Okay every one; we have visitors today from Mr. Thomas and Mr. Scuklars Construction and Architecture Firm to fix up your room. Now introduce yourself to them," Orihime said.
The kids lined up and the blond boy from the before stepped up.
"Hello, my name is Akihiro; I'm six years old and I have VSD," he said then went back in line.
"Hi, our names are Ai and Mi; we're four years old and I have Skin Cancer."
"My name is Hime; I'm five years old and I have Extrahepatic Bile Duct Cancer."
"Greetings, my name is Mira; I'm ten years old and I have a Bladder Cancer."
"My name is Aika; I'm eight years old and I have Bone Cancer."
"Hi, my name is Mishira; I'm seven years old and I have Cervical Cancer."
"Hello, my name is Hana; I'm four years old and I have Endometrial cancer."
"Hi, my name is Chie; I'm five years old and I have Kidney cancer."
"Hi, my name is Haru; I'm ten years old and I have Ewing sarcoma."
"Hello, my name is Kaede; I'm nine years old and I have Liver cancer."
"Hello, our names are Koichi and Koji; we're six years old and we have Childhood Acute Myeloid Leukemia."
"Hello, my is name Shiro; I'm nine years old and I have Retinoblastoma."
"Hi, my name is Hikaru; I'm this many (hold one finger) and I have Melanoma."
"The baby over there in the crib, her name is Airi; she is three weeks and has a Brain Tumor," Orihime said, "great job kids. Why don't you guys talk to them about how you want the room to be like so they can start either this week or next week."
"Um Dr. Inoue, we won't be able to start this week or next," Mr. Thomas said.
"What do you mean?" Orihime asked with her head turned to stare at him.
"You see, we have to go to Japan for a contest tomorrow and we won't be back until the end of February." Ulquiorra and Eric glared at their boss with confusion and annoyance.
"We assumed we'll be leaving on the 30th of this month; why are we leaving tomorrow?" Ulquiorra asked.
"Oh, did I say that?"
"Yes you did," Eric said.
"I must have forgotten to tell you. The Contests starts on the 30th and we're supposed to be leaving a day before," Mr. Thomas explained. Ulquiorra and Eric weren't pleased about the fact of the early departure but they didn't have a choice.
"Oh, well then I guess I'll tell the Director about this development but in the meantime; who wants double chocolate chip cookies and milk?" Orihime stated. The kids cheered running to the table grabbing cookies and the noise woke up Airi from her recovery nap. Orihime immediately went over to the crib, picked up a crying Airi and started calming her down. Akira gave Orihime Airi's bottle and returned to her cookie.
After snack time
"Well men, it's time to get back to the firm," Mr. Thomas announced. The men got up from the floor after talking to the children about how they wanted the room to be like. Ulquiorra and Erik stayed seated. They waited for their co-workers to leave the room so they could explain to her about the trip.
"It's to prove how you work?" Orihime confusingly said.
"Yes," Ulquiorra answered.
"Okay, I understand. I'll see you at home," Orihime replied.
Ulquiorra nodded and he left along with his partner.
