One month has passed, some of Ema's injuries healed, she could only walk around the house a bit, most of the time with a wheelchair or with crutches. Today she was sleeping until late, not knowing that the subject of the conversation happening in the living room was her.
Ukyou, Hikaru, Masaomi and Natsume were the ones doing the conversation. "So, how's the case?" Natsume asked to Ukyou "It's going nicely, it's not really hard since they attacked other girls before...Ema." "..." "The police is already after them, with extra help this time, since all the others or they escaped during the runaway or the jury declared them innocent." "Wait, there is a chance of the jury saying that they are innocent?" Hikaru asked "Yes, I don't know how, but all the other times they got arrested they were freed." Hikaru fell silent, with a serious face. "Maybe they work with money." He said and looked at Ukyou. "There's always this chance as well, but to do that with the jury they would need a lot of money, but they were average guys." "Dirty money." Natsume spoke up. "What?" Masaomi asked. "What what? To people who go so low as to attack defenseless girls, there wouldn't be one problem to actually work with dirty money." Ukyou nodded and kept thinking. "Anyway there's something I need to say to you guys." Masaomi said, everyone looked at him. "Ema's injuries are being healed nicely, she can already walk a bit, she cant really take a shower by herself nor eating, as her coordination is not really good yet, but that's not the major problem..." "Then what is it?" Natsume asked. "Her pneumonia should have already been healed, but she constantly throws up, gets tired, complains about her body hurting, headaches and has fevers every now and then." "Why don't you just get her checked on the hospital?" Ukyou asked. "I can't, remember when Yusuke brought a friend here and she just froze and started to cry not allowing anyone to touch her? She doesn't accept men yet...besides, every time I ask her if she wants to go to the hospital she just cries and begs to me not to take her." They fell silent, remembering how hurt Ema truly was. "But, we need to, dont we?" Natsume said. "We can't just let her have fevers all the time." Ukyou completed. "I called the Sakura-san already, she said it's unpleasant, but normal, because of her trauma she will most probably have nightmares and fevers until she surpass it." Masaomi said "How the hell is she supposed to surpass such a thing?" Natsume asked annoyed. Masaomi sighed and said "I know...it's not easy. Anyway, when I asked about the sickness she said she can't be sure, it could be so many different things..." "Maybe..." Hikaru said, looking disturbed. "Maybe what?" Masaomi asked. "Hm hmm, nothing, better not think of it." Hikaru said and got up. The rest stood there, not knowing what to do. "I guess instead of doing nothing about it, we can ask Sakura-san to come check on Ema." Ukyou said. Masaomi nodded, then said "She is a very busy woman, but I'll try to make her come here." Then he got up, picked the phone and started to make a call. Natsune got nearer Ukyou and asked "Can you explain me more about all of this?" "Sure."
"Hello?" Sakura spoke to the phone "Hi, it's Masaomi." "Oh, hi, how's Ema?" "Hmm, good, I guess." "Something wrong?" "Well, she still trowing up and having fevers." "I told you it's normal in her case." "Yeah, but I can't just stay here doing nothing." Sakura sighed and continued "So, what do you want?" "Can't you come here? To check on Ema?" Sakura was silent a for a minute then said "Ok, I'll go, I can go now, but it has to be really quick." "Really quick is enough, thank you!" "Ok, ok, I'm going." Then the call ended and Masaomi went back to the living room. To his own surprise, almost everyone was there, taking off Wataru, Miwa and Rintarou. "Good morning." Masaomi said. "Hmm" was all he heard from everyone. "Sorry, I explained the case to everyone while you were at the phone, we are thinking about how to get the guys arrested." Ukyou said. Suddenly Ema appeared on top of the stairs, looking at everyone, she was struggling to keep on her feet with the crutches. "Good morning." She said, she went one step down and stopped. Yusuke got up and said "Need help?" "No, thanks, I want to do this by myself." Everyone looked worriedly at her, ready to help if anything happened. She closed her eyes and balanced a bit, making everyone freeze "Are you all right?" Subaru asked. "Yeah, just feeling a bit dizzy, but I'm fine." Everyone froze even more at the statement 'Dizzy? She can't go down by herself feeling dizzy?' everyone thought. She went down one more step and looked at them, then she put her right hand on her head, letting a crutch fall and said "Ugh" and collapsed rolling down the stairs. "EMA!" everyone screamed and went to her, Fuuto arrived first and was about to touch her when Masaomi said "Don't!" And kneeled besides her "She might have gotten injured, it's better not to make her make any big movements." Then he turned Ema's body up, making her face the ceiling, he checked if anything was broken again and sighed relieved, then he got her up and was heading to her room. "Wait! What happened?" Subaru asked before Masaomi got out of view. "She isn't injured, what's good, but I have no idea why she collapsed." Masaomi answered and rushed out. Natsume then spoke "We'll find out anyway, Sakura-san is coming for a visit." Everyone seemed relieved, but still worried.
Half an hour passed until Sakura arrived, Kaname opened the door, before he could even say anything she got in and asked "Where's Ema?" "Imouto-chan collapsed and is in her room, I'll guide you." Kaname said with a serious face. Sakura got inside Ema's room and said "You two get out." Masaomi got up and pulled Kaname out of the room. "She's rather bossy, isn't she?" Kaname said. "Yes, but we doctors prefer to work alone." Masaomi said calmly.
1 hour, 1 hour and half, 2 hours. "Geez, how much time will that doctor take?" Fuuto said, annoyed. As if it was an answer to his prayers Sakura appeared in the living room. "For your information, it's really hard to work with an unconscious patient, she just woke up 40 minutes ago, so I made her a few questions." Fuuto stared at her, with an annoyed look. "Anyway, I need to speak to you." She pointed at Masaomi, who nodded and accompanied her to the kitchen, where no one would hear their conversation. "I'm sorry..." She said. "I should have known, I'm so stupid..." Masaomi blinked confused "What happened?" "...I'll start from the beginning... She had a concussion remember? Well, apparently she hit her head again, with enough strength to make her have another one, the thing is, they got 'mixed together' and almost caused a contusion." Masaomi looked worried and said "Is it bad?" "No, it's not bad, if she rests nothing big will happen, maybe a bit of memory loss and brain damage, but nothing worse than that..." Masaomi nodded and asked "What else?" "..." "That's the cause of the headaches but what about the sickness, the body pain?" She took a deep breath and said "I'm sorry...but...she's...pregnant..." Masaomi fell to the floor in shock, he put his hands on his head, no, no, it couldn't be...why? His sister? His love? Pregnant? Of an attacker? No, it's not true! "I'm sorry, but she always have that option...you know, it's legal in her case...she can make an abortion..." He looked up and said "Abortion?" Sakura silently nodded. A hope grew in Masaomi's heart, but not for long, she heard stories about women who aborted and were never the same, the thought caused a bitter taste in Masaomi's mouth. "I'll let you think about it, I didn't tell her, but go easy ok? Let her make the decision and...good luck." Then Sakura rushed out of the house before anyone could ask her anything.
Masaomi got up and went back to the living room, he was pale and looked like he had just seen a ghost. "Is everything ok?" Kaname asked. Masaomi sat on the couch, letting his own weight do the do of sitting. "Something wrong with Chii-chan?" Louis asked Masaomi just let out a 'hmm' "Say it!" Fuuto said. "Calm down Fuuto, let him breath." Natsume said. Without anyone noticing Rintarou and Miwa were observing everything from the stairs. "She...she...she...is...pregnant..." Masaomi said, with a look on his that seemed like he never experienced happiness. Who was standing, fell down, just like Masaomi, including Rintarou, who said "My daughter..." and started to cry, Miwa kneeled down besides him, hugged him and cried as well. Hikaru thought 'FUCK' and started walking from one side to the other. Natsume let his jaw drop in shock and was going to say something, but didn't. Louis looked sad, so sad, only thinking about how Ema would react to that. Yusuke was shocked, first his crush turned out to be his sister, then she was raped, an now pregnant? No, it had to be a nightmare... Iori had his eyes extremely opened, anger and sadness burning inside him. Kaname looked desolated, once more, he wasn't able to protect the one who was dear to him. Tsubaki wanted to say 'It's a lie!' but before he could Azusa hugged him tightly and said "Don't." Tsubaki hugged him back, biting his shoulder so he wouldn't lose control and say what he shouldn't. Ukyou stared at the papers, passed his hand trough his face and sighed with a pained look. Fuuto kicked the table and rushed to his room, crying. Subaru looked confused, how? How did everything happen?
After everyone getting their feelings tidied up, Masaomi whispered "She...does not know about it." Rintarou blinked, that meant someone had to talk to her... "Who?" Hikaru asked faintly no one answered, whoever told her, wouldn't support to look at her broken face. "We have to..." Hikaru continued. "Everyone...?" Ukyou said, like that no one would have to face her alone. Everyone agreed. They went upstair, Ema was cutting a paper, making different forms to each part, as soon as they arrived she stopped, the scissors on her hand. "Hi." She said, with a tiny smile. "Ema..." Masaomi said. She looked at him "What's wrong?" She asked worriedly. "You...are..." "I am?" "I'm sorry..." "What am I?" She asked softly. "Pregnant..." As soon as he said that, Ema goggled her eyed, then narrowed them and stared at her belly, as if staring at her womb, grabbed the scissors and stabbed herself, she stabbed her own womb three times before anyone understand what was happening. When she was about to stab for the fourth time Iori screamed "STOP!", rushed to her side and held her arms. "Please stop..." He said to her, she let go of the scissors and started to cry, he hugged her and let her sob on his shoulders.
