Chapter 13: In the hospital

11:30 PM

"How are her, Doctor?" Shiho asked.

"And this time no jokes!" Maho warned her.

Mummies ...

Shizuka thought, and then answered:

"So ... Despite the beating suffered ..."

"Torture!" Maho interrupted her.

"... Despite the torture suffered no vital organ has been damaged, yet it will need absolute rest before you can set foot on a panzer."

"Can we see it?"

"This is not a visiting time ... But in your case I will make a break. Come on, follow me." She invited them.

At the same moment Erika was lying in bed, staring at the ceiling with a melancholy expression.

The last days were a real torment ... I was tortured, accused unjustly, but above all I lost Miho ... My beloved Miho.

Start flashback

Miho and Erika had just finished making love, and now they were lying on the bed, naked and sweaty.

"Damn, Miho ... Every time we do it, it's like it was the first! I really like it! "The blonde exclaimed.

"It's the same for me, my sweet Erika ..." Her lover answered her, kissing her gently on the lips.

"If our respective teammates saw us now they would tear us to pieces."

"Even? Do not be so bad! Think of Caesar and Carpaccio, they can be friends in the sunlight! "

"Maho is not Anchovy ... And we are much more than just friends!"

She sat down, taking on a grim look.

"And I suck every time I speak badly of you in public."

"Erika ... You must. Otherwise the others will start to suspect. You know what it means."

"I know very well ... But I do not like this situation at all! Having to go secretly, rarely in addition, have to disguise me to get here on board and stay with you ... I wish we could live our relationship in the sunlight! "

"It's not possible, do you have any idea of the cavity that would flow from it? They would throw tons of mud on us, saying that you passed information to the opponent and throwing the same accusation on me. We would be expelled both! "

"Why do not you come back to Kuro? Everything would be easier! "

"Go back to Kuro? Erika, this is not possible either! "

"But why?"

"My mother and my sister would never accept me ... They still have it with me for the last year. And I'm afraid they're not the only ones ... "

"This is not true. Many at school think you did the right thing, saving your teammates's lifes. Human lives are more important than a tournament! "

"In any case, now my family is Ooarai. I can not put them to the right side now, on the eve of the final! With what shamelessness could I change the flag at the last minute? Hana, Saori, Yukari ... Everyone has confidence in me, they love me for having brought them from rags to riches! "

"Then I will move to Ooarai!"

Miho looked at her doubtfully.

"Do you really feel it? Turn your back on your team just for me? I had to, because of that business, but you do not have to. Think carefully. "

In response, Erika took her face in her hands, staring at her intently.

"I have already reflected! I want to stay close and fight by your side. "

Miho looked at her, sad.

"We'll talk about it after the final."

"Now."

"Erika, you can not. The decisive battle will take place in less than 24 hours, and this will raise too many doubts and suspicions. "

The blonde saddened in turn.

"So we will have to face each other ..."

"Unfortunately. And I will give my best in this challenge, the future of Ooarai is hanging by a thread. "

At that moment someone knocked on the door.

"Miho, are you there?" Saori's voice asked.

"Fuck ... Hide yourself!" The landlady exclaimed, alarmed.

"And where?"

"In the closet!"

In a panic, the blonde picked up her clothes and slipped quickly into the cabinet, closing the doors. From there she heard Miho who was going to open.

"Hello, girls!" She greeted.

"But ... Are you naked?" Saori's voice asked.

"Sorry ... But with this heat I thought I'd get comfortable!" She justified himself, embarrassed.

Damn it ... I hope they leave soon!

Erika thought nervously.

Unfortunately, her hope turned out to be in vain. Miho's friends stayed for about an hour, and when her lover told her to go out she was very sweaty.

"I was suffocating there!" She exclaimed.

"Sorry, but if you were surprised here I would have had trouble to finish."

"And not just you ..."

"What about a shower?"

"I'd like to, but I have to train for tomorrow's final."

"It will take a few minutes ... If you want, I'll keep you company."

She looked at her suspiciously.

"You and I in the shower? I let you imagine the sequel! "

"You can always do it alone ..."

"All right, if you insist ..."

Entering the bathroom looked around: it was a room with white walls and furniture, the only color notes were the towels, red, purple, blue and other colors. She entered the shower, opened the water and began to wash himself. After a few minutes, however, someone touched her ass. She turned abruptly, crossing her gaze with Miho staring at her hungry.

" You still want to do?" She asked.

"What do you think?"

That said the commander of Ooarai began to kiss her on the face, and then descend on the neck.

I knew it ended like this ...

She thought the kuro, giving in to the passion.

When they had finished flirting (and washing) they dressed.

"I feel like an idiot dressed like that!" Erika stated, concealing her disgust at the Ooarai uniform she wore.

"If you move here you will have to get used to it! Come on, put these too ... "

She handed her a pair of green-colored contact lenses.

"... And these." She put a pair of round glasses on her.

Erika wore both.

"Well, I have to say hello. See you tomorrow…"

As opponents.

"See you tomorrow."

She had just walked away from Miho's apartment, when a female voice shouted at her:

"Ehi you!"

Erika began to sweat cold, but turned, crossing her eyes with Momo, a student council girl.

"Er ... What's up?" Asked, intimidated.

The girl handed her a ten-yen coin.

"You dropped this."

"Thanks ... Sometimes I'm really careless." She said, chuckling.

"You're welcome…"

The blonde resumed her journey, breathing a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it had not been recognized, even if for a moment it had feared the worst.

End flashback

At that moment someone knocked on the door.

"Forward!"

"Hi, Erika." Maho greeted her, entering the room with her mother.

"Maho-san ..."

"Do you feel better now?"

"Well, I'm not in the hands of those torturers anymore, so I would say yes."

"I'm glad ... When you fainted in my arms I feared the worst."

"Me too, when I heard that they wanted to kill me anyway, whether I confessed or not."

"Seriously have they said this?"

"Exactly, Miss Nishizumi. But first they wanted to rip my teeth one at a time. And if it had not been for your daughter and for the other hour my corpse, tortured and toothless, would float in the bay. "

"The merit is from Kinuyo ... She warned me," Maho explained.

"I'll have to thank you as soon as I see it."

"This blitz will not be without consequences ... Many female students were injured or lost their lives, both ours and them. Tomorrow all the news and newspapers will talk about it, and surely the Federation will take action ... Probably it will take my head." Shiho interjected.

"But the idea of the assault was mine!" She protested her daughter.

"I covered you, taking responsibility. Perhaps, given my position and prestige, I will manage with little or nothing. "

"I hope so too ... But come to us, Erika. How long have you and Miho been lovers? "

"Three months."

"And have you ever ..."

"No, I did not pass any information of any kind."

"Why did you hide it?"

"Did not you hear me before? You would have forced me not to go to her anymore, and I could not allow it. "

"Erika, if you do it with an opponent, even if it's my sister, it's normal for you to suspect."

"Besides, if we had told him we could have taken advantage of it ... Turning Miho into one of our informants. She would have passed plans, strategies, and you would have passed them on to us. "

At those words Erika shook her head.

"Nishizumi-sama ... Can you be so mean? Even now that she is dead, do not think of your daughter with affection, but of the way you could exploit her, after having despised her for months. "

At those words, the woman's face twisted into an expression of anger.

"Do not you dare, Itsumi! If you did not notice, I even ended up in the hospital because of the pain I felt! "

"Then you should avoid certain speeches ..."

At these words Shiho looked guilty.

It's true ... My daughter was buried only today and I already make certain speeches ... Beautiful mother I am!

She told himself.

"Now leave me alone, please. I've been questioned enough, for today. "

The two Nishizumi nodded, leaving the room.
