Chapter 5
Futaba couldn't breathe.
WHAT.
IS.
HAPPENING.
She sat there, on the floor, contemplating things heavily. Fondling the box in her hands, the shape and size was perfect for a ring to be in there...
Did she dare look?...
Her mind was then distracted as she felt this strange knotting feeling in her stomach. Convinced it was nervousness, she made her way to the bathroom for water. But as she drank she felt the knotting sensation start to rise up, into her chest and then to her throat. And then causing her vision to falter. Feeling the need to wretch, Futaba ran to the toilet and began to be sick.
Was it something she ate? Can't have been, she couldn't remember eating anything the least bit incriminating for food poisoning.
After yet another episode of sickness, Futaba walked to and sat on the bed to think, it could just be a bug? there was alot of stomach illnesses going around. But other then the sudden sick feeling and nausea she felt fine, completely fine...
Kou entered the room with his big cheesy grin, from ear to ear.
"Futaba! I'm back!" He shouted cheerfully
Hearing muffled noises from behind the bathroom door he made his way over.
"Futaba?... Are you okay?"
Pushing the door open he saw her there, on the floor in tears.
"Futaba?! What's wrong? Tell me!" He exclaimed, falling to his knees next to her.
"K-K-Kou.. I need you to do something for me." She whimpered.
"YES YES ANYTHING!" He said loudly.
"I need you to go t-t-to the nearest chemist you can find" Futaba cried, holding back tears.
"For what? What do you need?" Kou now brushing the tears away from her beautiful shiny face.
"A.. Pregnancy Test"
Kou's arms dropped to the floor. His mind flashing back to the night they had finally reunited, is was certainly possible, nothing was used in the effort to prevent it.
Without a word he grabbed his bag and left the room, heading to the chemist, he needed to know just as much as she did, and judging by her reaction he could tell it was a big deal for her. But whatever the result, he hoped he could support Futaba in her decisions.
Futaba sat whimpering on the bathroom floor clutching her stomach in wonder. Is there a baby there? Her baby? Hers and Kou's baby?
Managing to stand up she made her way over to the bed once again, contemplating her options. If she was indeed pregnant, how would they manage to support themselves?
"I suppose i could sell my flat and see if me and Kou could get a larger place together.." she murmured.
An ideal plan, but then again would Kou be able to financially support both her, a baby and a home, working two jobs? He'd certainly try, she knew that. He had shown how much he loved her in the past few weeks since they had rescued their relationship. But this was unexpected. Futaba had always dreamed of having Kou's children, hoping they'd take after him, with his black hair and mysterious dark eyes, alongside his intelligence, but hoping they gained her own friendliness and kind nature. Having kids never seemed an option once Kou had disappeared since she couldn't imagine being with anyone else up to that point. What would Kou's reaction be? Judging by the way he walked out, Futaba felt as though he wasn't overjoyed with the idea of a baby...
"A baby..." Kou mumbled under his breath.
The idea of children never appealed to him, not with anyone but Futaba of course. But to start a family so young, when they had only been back together for a number of weeks.. But their baby.. Futaba's baby. Kou thought to himself which one of the two of them they'd more likely resemble. Futaba? With her thick flowy brown hair and beautiful deep hazel eyes, her kind attitude and generous being..
Heading over to the paypoint of the chemist he grabbed the test and ran back out, back towards their hotel.
Sitting on the bed facing eachother, with the test between them. They awaited the results.
"Kou I'm really sorry.." Futaba started, tears beginning to fall.
"No don't apologise, it takes two for this to happen, and it's not the end of the world. If anything it's beginning of our new one" Kou smiled.
Futaba then burst into tears of relief, thinking about how Kou felt about it had been playing on her mind the entire time.
Time was up.
Futaba's hand shakily picked up the test.
