Flashback from ch. 4
The song finished, she opened her eyes along with her siblings that were playing piano (emmeline) and violin (jake). They looked at the man who was sitting and clapping putting on a smile. Mai was about to say something but was stopped because she noticed we were here.
"oh, martin, Luella. I got your message from my assistant. It's good to see you." He said standing and telling them to come nearer.
"yes, it's been what ten years. I'm glad we met again." Father replied while mother nodded.
"oh this are my sons, noll, gene, introduce yourself" father said. I walked up to him and introduced my self.
"my name is Eugene Davis, mr. Richard. It's nice to meet you" I said with a smile.
"my name is Oliver Davis, nice to meet you" said noll politely.
"my what handsome boys you have here. How old are you?" he asked the both of us
"we are 19 yrs old sir" I said
"oh no need to be formal with me just call me uncle. My, both of you are a year older than Katie." He said
"let me introduce you to my children, jake, emmeline, Kathryn, come here and introduce yourself." He continued
We heard a 'yes father' from them. We looked closely at them.
"my name is Jake Engel, 22 years old, just call me jake or touya. Touya's my Japanese name" he said to has brown hair and eyes. he is as tall as bou-san. He seems a kind man. He was wearing a light blue short sleeves polo and dark blue pants with black shoes.
"my name is Emmeline Engel, 20 years old, just call me emme or nadeshiko" she said the same as jake she has long wavy brown hair and brown eyes. she was wearing a summer dress that was the color of yellow. Finally it was mai's turn we looked at her. She just smiled at us.
"my name is Kathryn Engel, 18 years old, just call me Katie or maika or even mai" she said. She was wearing a summer dress as well with a different design than emmeline. It was pure white that made her look like an angel. But noll and i noticed that, there was a bandage on her left arm. We frowned at that. We remembered that she was attacked by a ghost. It seems she doesn't remember us at all. We nodded and we introduced them to the rest of the SPR members.
Chapter 5:
Bou-san's POV
when we finished introducing ourselves, we were a little sad that mai can't remember us. But in due time she will remember right? Wait, why am I asking myself? Its kinda weird.
"Kathryn, can you sing a song, to welcome them?" asked mr. Richard
"Oh, yes, father. Then I'll sing yume no tsubasa" she Asked her siblings to play the song. They happily accepted.
Then emmeline went to the piano and jake went to violin. They started playing and mai started singing.
Yume no Tsubasa
Even like this, we came from faraway
We can't return
To your smile from when you were young back then anymore
I love the world in which you laugh
I want to be by your side; simply that
With pains that I started to forget in my chest
Time goes by, the flow of time
Changes us, but...
Things that we lost, things that we dream of
I'll take your hand and recall them
I'm always by your side
Because I even want to remember sad things
Please leave
A page for me on your map
On that day, you believed in
The wind that blows from the future
So soar higher tomorrow...
Time goes by, even if time passes
I'm sure that things that don't change exist
Because I can't reach it, because I want to find it
I'll go search for wings of dreams
Be by my side, forever...
I'm by your side, forever...
After the song finished, we clapped our hands to show that we loved it. She bowed and went to her father along with her siblings. We talked about the case. Well naru-bou and his family, we talked with mai.
Ayako's POV
"mai-chan, can I ask you something?" I asked. She looked at me and smiled. Oh how I miss that smile.
"sure, you can ask me anything, matsuzaki-san." She said. I feel uneasy with Mai calling me by my last name.
"ok, well I heard you were a doctor. Is that true?" I asked
"yes I am" she answered honestly
"when did you finish your studies?"
"When I was 11 yrs old. I got my degree at 15." She said.
She was talking animatedly to john, yasuhara, madoka, and masako, even takigawa.
I just smiled at that. She looked at her watch and stood up. She went towards her father and siblings and said
"Father, jake, emme I need to go change my clothes" she said.
Though, why does she have to change? I looked at the others they are confused as I am.
"oh, is it that time already?" said jake while looking at his watch.
"Aright Katie, go and change" emme said
"and come back here, because jake will take you to the hospital alright?" Mr. Richard said
"yes father" she said and went out of the room.
"Richie, why is she going to the hospital?" asked Luella-san
"oh, she owns a hospital nearby. Its name is SAKURA GENERAL HOSPITAL" said Richard-san
"wait did you just say sakura general hospital?"asked naru
"yes I did." He replied
We were shocked. We didn't utter a word.
(A/N: the Engel estate is somewhere in the Kanagawa prefecture.)
Naru's POV
Sakura general hospital she owns it? No wonder why, they treated her with special care. If I remember correctly, her hospital room was big and luxurious fit for rich people.
After 30 minutes of silence, someone came in, it was mai. Dressed in a different attire. She was wearing a white tube top that has blue sakura petals embroidered on it. She was wearing pants that hugged her legs and 3 inches shoes, on her left hand hang a white coat.
She looked beautiful, much more beautiful than before she wore light make up. She let her hair fall down.
"jake, I'm done, let's go." She said but she went to her father and gave him a peck on his cheek as well as a hug. She did the same with emme.
"I'll be back tonight, father." She said
"Katie" emme asked. She looked at her sister. Gesturing her to go on with what she was suppose to say.
"will you be in time for dinner?" she asked
"I'm not sure, I'll call you in case I might be late." She said and went out together with her brother but before she left she said goodbye to us and smiled. Outside the window. I saw two cars, drove out of the mansion. I guess one is hers and the other one is her brothers. Alright then, we should get to work. I will surely let mai remember me.
