"Let me go!".
If the evil man was already quite surprised because his bad intentions caught by the doctor, now he's really taken aback as the girl in his arms woke up and struggled to hit him.
The girl, too, was as shocked as he was, because actually, she meant to hit someone else.
But the girl quickly took control of herself as she realized who this man was.
The killer of her parents.
Maybe he's not the boss, but at least he's one of his men!
And the outraged suddenly burst within her.
Even without realizing it, this time Kazuha actually threw her fist at the evil man's face, which broke his nose.
She had anticipated not to fall as soon as the man released her and smothered his nose that she had just broken, with both his hands, while swearing in pain.
A second later, Kazuha lunged at the man that still in pain.
The man fell flat on his back. And now, the furious Kazuha wasted no time sitting herself on his stomach as she showered his face with her fists continuously.
"You killed my parents! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!" she continued to hit and shouting as if possessed.
"Miss! Miss! Please calm down!" Two policemen ran from inside the morgue.
One policeman tried to release Kazuha from the man, while the other, trying to pull the now defenseless man.
But somehow, Kazuha became much stronger. She wriggled trying to unleash from the police grip, while still struggling to punch and claw at his face.
"Let me go! He killed my parents! I'll kill him!" Kazuha screamed shrill.
"Back up! We need back up! Hurry! To the morgue!" with difficulty, the policeman holding Kazuha, while asking for help through walkie-talkies.
"No! Let me go!" Kazuha still screaming.
"Miss, I'm so sorry!" Then the policeman hit Kazuha's stomach, knocking her unconscious.
Heiji leaned down, putting his hands on his knees, while trying to catch his breath.
He had been circling the vast garden three times and down the alleys nearby, but he had not found Kazuha yet.
He tried to call her, but all his calls gone unanswered.
Heiji looked up at the sound of a hasty steps close to him and saw four policemen running in haste. One of them is Otaki.
"Otaki-han!" He called.
"Hei-chan?" Otaki and three other policemen stopped running.
Heiji ran up to them.
"What is this? Why are you guys in such a hurry?".
"There's an emergency call from the morgue!" Otaki replied explaining.
"The morgue?" Heiji frowned then gasped.
Could it be?
"I'm coming with you!".
Heiji's heart was so relieved when knowing Kazuha is indeed in the morgue although he doesn't know why Kazuha could be there.
Heiji also dislikes the fact that Kazuha is in the morgue. The morgue is the place where the corpses are!
Of course Kazuha is alive!
Only, she was unconscious ...
Heiji frowned.
Why is Kazuha unconscious?
He didn't realize that he had just uttered the question aloud, instead of asking himself.
"I ... I deliberately knocked her out because this young lady kept beating this guy!" Said the policeman who had punched Kazuha's stomach in a trembling voice, because he recognized Heiji and Otaki.
"You ... did ... what?" Heiji asked in a low voice and a horrible gaze.
"Ah! Hei-chan ..." Otaki has not had time to finish his words intended to muffle Heiji's anger, when a firm voice scolded them.
"Otaki! What happened?".
"Chief Hattori!" Otaki and the other five policemen saluted him.
"Dad!".
"Heiji! Why are you here too? Where is Kazuha-chan?".
Heiji step aside to show to his father Kazuha who was lying unconscious.
"Poor girl! So she fainted when she heard that grief news!".
Heiji and Otaki looked at each other with discomfort. They seemed could already guess what the grief news is.
"Dad!" Heiji wanted to assure about his guess, which is unnecessary. "Is ... is Kazuha's dad ..."
"Yes, son!" Replied his father in a sad voice. "Toyama just passed away!".
"Dearly beloved! Today we all gather here to cremate our two beloved friends, Mr. and Mrs. Toyama! They are no longer with us, but they will be forever live in our hearts ..." Kazuha sat with a blank mind. She no longer listened to the words of the priest who was preaching before the coffins were cremated.
She just stared blankly at the two black coffins in front of her, each containing the body of her father and mother.
Her mind reeled back when Heiji nervously informed her that her father had just died when she was awake from her unconsciousness.
"And ... the man?".
"What man?".
Kazuha gulped before hissed her answer, with full of hatred "The killer!".
Heiji patted the back of Kazuha's hands gently. "My dad has taken care of it! You don't have to worry!".
Her mind returned to the present time when she heard the heavy noise of the cremation furnace door being slid open and both coffins were pushed automatically into the cremation stoves.
Everyone stood, except for her. Her legs are not strong enough to hold her weight. Still fortunately, she did not faint.
"Miss Toyama, maybe you want to sprinkle the flowers?" The priest walked to her and offered the poor girl gently.
Kazuha swallowed hard, before lower her gaze and shaking her head.
Finally this hard time arrived. Both of her parents will be cremated and become ashes.
No longer have bodies.
Teardrops began to fall from Kazuha's eyes as she cried quietly, remembering beautiful and happy times together with them.
A few moments later, soft roar began to sound, a sign of the cremation furnace already on.
Kazuha looked up at the thick iron door of the cremation furnace that was now closed again.
Goodbye Mom and Dad ...
Until we meet again ...
Kazuha still has not moved from her seat, although now all the guests have gone home.
Well, all guests except him. Her childhood friend, Heiji Hattori.
She was still staring at the cremation door with blank stares, not aware when the guests were leaving, including both Heiji's parents.
Kazuha was also unaware Heiji was still sitting beside her and accompanying her.
"Kazuha," Heiji called her softly, as he was anxious she didn't move or showed any living signs for the last two hours.
Kazuha turned to her right, where Heiji was.
"You are still here? Not coming home with your parents?" She indeed didn't know he was still here, but not surprised to see him.
"And leaving you alone? No!".
Kazuha did not answer, and again turned her gaze toward the door of the cremation stoves.
Suddenly Heiji cleared his throat "Kazuha, I know maybe this is not the right time. But here, in front of your parents who are now being cremated ..." Heiji gulped nervously as he felt Kazuha glanced at him sharply.
"Actually I want to say it in the front of your parents coffins, but there were so many guests and ... Anyway, what I want to say is, I will take care of you, Kazuha! You may be an orphan now, but you're not alone! I will take care of you and will always be with you!".
Kazuha stunned. To be honest, she was deeply touched by Heiji's words.
But, she can't selfishly tie a man who doesn't love her to look after her and always be with her. She's not a baby, she doesn't need a babysitter!
Besides, they are still young. Someday, Heiji will meet someone whom he ... Kazuha swallowed those painful thoughts ... loves.
"Thank you, Heiji! That means a lot to me! But my answer is no!".
Kazuha can't bear to see Heiji's face getting paled.
"Besides, I've decided Heiji! I'm going to study abroad!".
