Chapter 4: Is she awake?

Hojo was sitting in the waiting room crying. He had seen everything.

Kagome walking across the street with her beautiful smile that was obviously for him. A screech. Her hitting the car with a loud BOOM. Her books everywhere. Her blood painting the blacktop red. Running to her. Trying to save her.

I saw her eyes… she was looking for something… someone… she couldn't see me. Was she blinded by her blood?... When she gets out of here, I should get her some therapeutic bath salts… that would be good…

Kagome was unconscious in her hospital bed. The doctors had told her family that she had hit her head on the windshield, and that a shard of glass had been shot into her torso. She had lost lots of blood and was lucky to be alive.

Her family was also in the lobby along with Hojo. Souta was sobbing, Gramps was trying to look tough while he prayed, and Mrs. H looked as if she was in shock with just a few tears.

While she was unconscious, the glass had been taken out and her head was bandaged up.

Her doctor came out and immediately Mrs. H stood up.

"Is she awake?" She quickly asked.

He shook his head. "Sit down." Mrs. H did so. "Kagome's condition is medically stable but I don't know when she will wake up. From this kind of head injury, few ever do. But I have seen many cases where if a loved one just talks to her of is even near she may wake up… I suggest that maybe her mother may go first, then her grandfather, Souta here, her friends… does she have possibly a boyfriend?"

"Yes." Hojo immediately spoke up.

"Alright. Well, Who ever is ready may go."

Mrs. H stood up, and walked into her daughter's hospital room.
