After Edgeworth had finished bathing and dressing, he's getting ready to go to Phoenix's office to return Maya's magatama and apologize to Phoenix and Maya of his rude attitude yesterday. Before he go to Phoenix's office, Edgeworth took a time for look at himself in the mirror first. He was quite shocked of his body which very thin and his face which looks very pale, make him look like a cancer patient, not an arrhythmia patient.

Relax, Edgeworth... After you make peace with Kay, she will cook various delicious foods for you and will make your weight become normal again…

Edgeworth smiled resignedly. Yeah, if she willing to forgive me.

Combing his hair once again, Edgeworth puts Maya's magatama carefully into his bag, and headed to Phoenix's office with his car.

Wright Anything Agency

Kay, Franziska, Phoenix, and Lang listen very carefully of Maya's report after successfully channeled Gregory Edgeworth's spirit. Maya reads for all of them Gregory Edgeworth's explanations that he wrote on the paper.

"Mr. Gregory said, he managed to persuade Edgeworth to come out of his room and apologize to all of us, including you too, Kay. He also said, Edgeworth didn't stop crying when he saw him again… Ah, poor Edgeworth," murmured Maya. "I think your idea was succeeded, Kay, and my effort for channeling Mr. Gregory's spirit was not useless."

Kay smiled weakly. "Hopefully, Miles really kept his promise to his father ... I ... I really miss him. I really want…. Spend days with him again…"

Then the office's bell rang. Maya quickly rose from her chair.

"Wait a minute, I'll see who's coming."

Maya opened the door, and how surprised and happy she was, saw Edgeworth stood in front of the office door. Maya looked at Edgeworth carefully, at least he looks a little better now, although he looks very thin and his face looks very pale. It's the right time! Kay is here, and we can reconcile the two of them quickly! Maya thought happily.

"Hello." said Edgeworth rigid, confused what more to say.

"Hello, Mr. Edgeworth! Good morning! Ah, the weather always cloudy every day, huh? How are you? You, uh, seem healthy."

"I, um, good. I, uh, came here to return your magatama, Maya."

"My magatama?" Maya's eyebrows furrowed. "How can my magatama on you, Mr. Edgeworth?"

Edgeworth grinned. "Because you channeled my father's spirit last night, Maya, am I right? And you left your magatama in my room after my father's spirit had gone. Here, isn't this stuff very important to you?" He handed the magatama to Maya's hands.

"Oh!" Maya's cheeks flushed. "Thank you very much, Mr. Edgeworth. And... uh ... I'm sorry if I'm presumptuous, but... well... I just want to try to help you, Mr. Edgeworth."

"It's okay, Maya. Well, um, actually, I'm really grateful, because of you, I can talk to my dad again ... I also want to apologize of my rude attitude to you yesterday morning."

"Forget it, there's nothing to forgive. Come on, please come in first, Mr. Edgeworth! It isn't good for stand outside too long on this cold weather," says Maya. Edgeworth had just opened his mouth to refuse, Maya clutching his wrist and dragged him into the office. When Edgeworth came in and saw Kay were inside too, the atmosphere became quiet instantly. For a few seconds, Edgeworth and Kay just looked at each other with red cheeks without saying a word.

"Hello, Kay." Edgeworth murmured softly as he looked at the floor, in a quiet voice, and barely audible.

"Hi, Miles." answer Kay, also ducking, without look at Edgeworth's face.

Phoenix impatiently sighed deeply and got up from his chair. Then he stood in the middle of Kay and Edgeworth. With a bit rough, Phoenix pulled Edgeworth and Kay's hands to make them shake hands with each other.

"Oh, c'mon, both of you act like a high school student! Come on, Kay, Edgeworth, are both of you don't have any other words to say beside hello and hi?" said Phoenix with exasperation. Lang, Franziska, and Maya burst out laughing.

"Come on, Edgey-boy, say something," said Lang.

"Come on, foolish little brother, don't act like a robot! Prove that you're still love Kay!" said Franziska suddenly while swinging her whip.

While get rid of Franziska's whip, Edgeworth swallowed.

"I'mverysorryforwhativebeensaying," Edgeworth murmured quickly.

"Pardon?" Kay puzzled.

"I...I ..." Edgeworth ventured to raise his head, then continued, "I ... I want…. To apologize to you, Kay. I'm sorry I had embarrassed you on your birthday party, I'm sorry I was so harsh to you when you're with Debeste, I'm sorry I've hurt you by ignoring you ... Will ..." Edgeworth swallowed once again. "Will you… give me a second chance? If you give me a chance ... I swear ... I will…. love you right."

Kay stays silent and didn't say anything. Shortly afterward, she took a step forward and slapped Edgeworth's left cheek. Edgeworth rubs his left cheek, and gasped. While Lang, Franziska, Maya, and Phoenix also gasped with Kay's reaction.

"That's for you to think you're too weak for me and feel you are a burden to me." Then she slaps Edgeworth's right cheek. "That's for you have let the media beat you and you tortured yourself." Kay's hands swung again, and this time she pinched Edgeworth's left arm. "That's for you never check-up to the doctor again and endanger your health." Then she pinched Edgeworth's right arm. "That's for you had made your body become very thin. But calm down, Mr. Chief Prosecutor, you're still very good-looking for me."

Kay wraps her arms around Edgeworth's neck, and kissed his lips. Edgeworth's face turns very red.

"So you want to forgive me, Kay? You want to give me a second chance?" asked Edgeworth after they release their kiss. Kay pinched Edgeworth's cheeks, and kissed his cheek.

"Of course, Mr. Chief Prosecutor. The prosecution has no objection for give you a second chance. "

"T-thank you, Kay." Edgeworth murmured softly. He kissed Kay's hand gently. In an instant, the office was filled with murmurs of "Awwww." Edgeworth hastily stepped back, he actually forgot that he's not in his office right now, but in Phoenix's office.

"Well, finally we get the old Edgey! Hopefully nothing else will hindering your relationship," said Phoenix.

"Thanks, Wright. By the way... I also want to apologize to all of you, Franziska, Lang, Wright .. for my rude attitude yesterday... Sorry I've been angry and expel all of you from my house harshly like that... I hope all of you want to forgive me," murmured Edgeworth quietly. Lang and Phoenix laughed.

"There, there, Edgeworth. We've forgiven you from the beginning. Never mind," said Phoenix, as he patting Edgeworth's back, and reciprocated by Edgeworth with a small smile.

"Thanks, Wright."

"Mr. Chief Prosecutor," interrupted Kay, "Is this mean I can work at your office again?"

"Absolutely, Your Honor. Let's go to my office now. Good morning all."

"Bye, Edgeworth! Bye, Kay! Be careful on the road," said Phoenix and Maya. Edgeworth then takes Kay's hand, and they go to Edgeworth's office.

November 2 nd, 2027
Chief Prosecutor's Office

"Huwaaah..." Kay said as she steps into Edgeworth's office. "I leave this office just almost a month but it felt like it had been for decades. Oh, red sofa, oh, chess sets, I really miss you."

Edgeworth chuckled. "Don't tell me you miss the red sofa and chess sets more than the owner of this office?"

"Of course not, Mr. Chief Prosecutor," Kay giggled. "I miss everything about you, your hair, eyes, nose, eyebrows, and your cravat." Kay stood up and kissed Edgeworth's lips gently. Edgeworth kissed Kay's lips back, while he wraps his arms around Kay's neck. Kay responded Edgeworth with put her arms around his waist, before starting to kiss Edgeworth savagely.

"So, what both of you are talking about?" asked Kay when they stopped kissing.

"Hm?"

"What are you talking about with your dad? Until finally you want to rise and came out of your room?"

"Well, not much, actually ... He counseled me ... He told me he always watching me ... and ... he said that no a day without he shed tears because how proud he is of me." Edgeworth answered with a choked voice.

"You must be missing him already, huh?" asked Kay as she stroked Edgeworth's back gently.

"Y-yeah ... I'm a bit disappointed because my father spoke to me only briefly ... W-well ... I was crying when asked him to stay. Very childish and crybaby, isn't it?"

"I understand how you're feeling, Miles. I miss my father every day. Sometimes I fantasize can be on his arms or sit on his lap again."

"Then why don't you ask Maya to channel your father's spirit, Kay? At least, it can diminish your thirst of him."

Kay smiled weakly, and shook her head. "No, Miles. Ask Maya to channel my father only for I could talk to him again will only make me can't accept the fact, Miles. The fact that my father in a different realm with me now. The fact that my father had died. I was afraid if I saw my father's spirit, I will be angry with all that happened… And it's only going to lead to the old wounds that I had buried for years to be open again."

Edgeworth smiled a little. "You're really wise, Kay." Suddenly, he remembered what his father said about his mother.

"Kay, Dad also told me that I ... I have to apologize to my mother for my attitude at the hospital. and... he also told me that I must forgive her. What do you think? Honestly ... it's hard for me to forgive her."

Stroking Edgeworth's cheek gently, Kay answered, "Miles. I agree with your Dad. To keep your revenge isn't good. I know your mother made mistakes in the past… Indeed, I don't know how painful to be abandoned by a mother, because my mother had died after giving birth to me.. But…everyone deserves second chance, right? Like I give you a second chance… you should give to your mother too… You're lucky, Miles. At least, your Mom is alive and healthy… You still have a chance to feel a hug and affection from a mother again ... Do it, Miles. Apologize and forgive. Before you're sorry because it is too late."

Edgeworth looked at Kay sharply. This is why he fell in love with Kay. Kay is very wise for her age, more than him. She's very tough and always cheerful in any situation. He was fascinated with the green eyes that exude an aura of someone who always looks at things from the positive side.

"Thank you, Kay. I ... feel… more relieved now. I ... I will apologize to her."

"You know where she lives now, Miles?"

"Y-yeah ... She sent me her business card some time ago.. I've never seen it, but I remember, Mom's birthday soon. On November 10th."

"Then, take out the card and we will visit your mom later on her birthday. Do you promise?"

"Okay. Thank you very much once again, Kay."

Edgeworth tilted his head again and kissed Kay, who reciprocated by Kay with fast and ferocious kiss.

When they break for an air, Kay playing Edgeworth's cravat with her hands, then looked at Edgeworth with seductive gaze.

"What's the matter, Kay? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You still love me, right?"

Edgeworth nodded slowly. Of course, Kay! You're the only woman who fills my heart. What did she want?

"Have you taken your medication?"

Edgeworth nodded.

"Good. Consider this as a welcome-back-our-relationship gift," said Kay, and before Edgeworth could ask or shout "HOLD IT "or" Objection ", Kay had torn his cravat, then unbuttoned his shirt and trousers very quickly. Smiling slyly, Kay throws Edgeworth's cravat, shirt, and trousers to the couch.

"H-hey, Miss Faraday!" said Edgeworth. "The prosecution has an objection! You're tearing my crava-MPPPH!" Edgeworth's protest was interrupted by Kay's violent and irregular kiss. Edgeworth kissed Kay back with his tongue, and he hastily ripped Kay's shirt and bra. Both are bare chest now. Kay laughed uproariously.

"You're a sharp player, aren't you, Mr. Chief Prosecutor? Oh, naughty boy!"

Laughed out loud, Edgeworth hugged Kay very tightly, and he could felt his chest and Kay's chest suppresses each other. He could felt his heartbeat and Kay's heartbeat clashing, like a harmony in orchestra music. He could felt the warmth in this hug, something that missing from his life lately. Their mouths are clashing again, while Edgeworth's hands mischievously playing with Kay's breast. When they break again for an air, Edgeworth knelt, kissed, and licked Kay's breast.

"Miles... You lick... Like a cow starving for milk!"

Like a cow?! Refrain from laughing, Edgeworth rose again, and this time attacked Kay neck with his kisses. Kay giggled. She slowly push Edgeworth to lie on the floor. She then crawls on top of him and stroked his chest slowly.

"Are you ready, Miles?" Kay whispered.

"More than ready."

Smiling slyly, Kay takes off her skirt and panties, before she takes off Edgeworth's belt and pants. The world feels like a paradise for Edgeworth then. He really infatuated with everything about his lover, her hair, her green eyes, her perfume, her smile... Unrelenting Edgeworth murmured Kay's name and whispered "I love you" continuously when their bodies finally become one. He was finally able to have sex with Kay without being attacked by chest pain again, without having to make Kay fear again... When they reached the climax, Edgeworth kissed Kay's neck, and said,

"You're the thief who stole my heart."

"And we better did not tell your mother about this."

Today is Mrs. Stella Edgeworth's birthday. After pick up Mrs. Stella's business cards from Edgeworth's home, Kay and Edgeworth getting ready to leave to look for Mrs. Stella's address. When he drive and search his mother's address, various thoughts come to Edgeworth's minds. How her new husband looks a like? How my step brothers look alike? What will Mom say if she see me show up at her doorstep?

They stopped at a store to buy a bunch of roses and a gift, and continue the journey to find Mrs. Stella's address.

November 10 th, 2027
Stella Edgeworth's Home

They finally arrived at the address they were looking for. Edgeworth really shocked with his mother's home condition. From the outside, the house looked small and dull. A feeling of guilt haunts Edgeworth. His mother live in a house like this, while he stays in a very fancy house…... He stood transfixed in front of the door that seems very old, holding the flower he just bought, glued, and nervous.

"Come on, Miles." Kay whispered, pushing Edgeworth a bit. Nervously and with trembling hands, Edgeworth rang the bell. Shortly afterward, Mrs. Stella came out, and how shocked she was, saw her little boy, who swearing at her when the last time they met, standing at her front door, holding a bunch of flowers and a gift pack.

"H-hello, Mom." whispered Edgeworth stumbling. "H-happy birth-thday, Mom." Then, with trembling hands, and without looking at his mother's face, Edgeworth handed the flowers and the gift to Mrs. Stella's hands.

"MILES! OH, SON! Thank you very much!" cried Mrs. Stella while accepting the flowers and gifts from Edgeworth. She then buried Edgeworth into her arms. Afterwards Mrs. Stella kissing Edgeworth's head many times. Her tears streaming down and fell into Edgeworth's head. Kay, who was touched by the scene, her tears spill too.

Mrs. Stella seemed to embrace Edgeworth very long before finally releasing her arms. Clumsily she wiped away her tears.

"I'm sorry ... Come in, come in, son, Miss Faraday ..."

The three of them step in, and when Edgeworth steps into his mother's home for the first time, he feels guilty again. His mother really live in poverty. The house very dirty and small. Certainly not a good place for a person to enjoy their old age. Edgeworth looked around, and he stunned to see most of the house wall was covered with news clippings about him. He then saw the photo when he was 3 years old together with Gregory and Stella framed with a beautiful frame and next to the photograph, there are clipping with headlines: Read our Interview with the newcomer Genius Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth! And underneath, his mother wrote, "So proud of you, my baby boy =)."

His mother actually never forget him ... She always thinking about him all the time...

Edgeworth and Kay sat on the small and dusty chair. Mrs. Stella looked very uncomfortable.

"Sorry, my home not that comfortable... Dirty and small.. Hehe ... Uh, you like something to drink, Miles, Miss Faraday? I only have warm water..."

Kay waved her hands. "Don't bother, Mrs. Edgeworth." Then she nudged Edgeworth. "Miles. Say something." She whispered because Edgeworth always stays silent.

"M-mom," Edgeworth raised his head, "Uh ... .where's.. your husband?"

Mrs. Stella smiled weakly. When saw her smile, Edgeworth just realized how beautiful his mother is… and she has the same eyes and nose like him.

"He had left me and married again, Miles. He also brought Andreo & Geraldo. I live alone here."

In an instant, Edgeworh's anger to his mother that he buried over the years turned into pity and guilt. My mother stay at dirty and small home like this in her old age, while me, her only son, live in wallowing wealth and luxury..

"And…. What did you do to finance your life, Mrs. Stella?" asked Kay.

For a moment, Mrs. Stella's face flushed. With shame she replied, "I wash clothes. The neighbors used to call me to use my services."

Edgeworth flabbergasted. He, a Chief Prosecutor in Los Angeles, have a sports car with a price of thousands of dollars, staying at luxurious home, and he let his mother being a clothes washerwoman...

"Mom ...I'm so sorry... Really .." whispered Edgeworth softly. "I'm sorry I was very harsh and swearing to you at the hospital…Mom... I'm sorry I have ignored all the letters you sent to me ... I... I wish I knew you live like this, Mom..."

Mrs. Stella smiled weakly and stroked Edgeworth's hair gently.

"Son, it's okay, really. I understand you're angry with me at the hospital, I know you are very hurt because Mom has abandoned you ... I'm sorry again, Miles….Will you ever forgive Mom?"

"O-of course, Mom."

Mrs. Stella immerses Edgeworth in her arms again. And Edgeworth suddenly felt incredible warmth in his mother's arms. He missed this... the warm embrace of a mother...

"Miles, what about your illness? Have you recovered? I was furious when I read the news that says you're lying about your illness..."

"W-well ... i-it's getting better, M-mom."

"Oh, thank God, son. Every day Mom always pray for you to recover and Mom always worried if something bad happen to you .." Mrs. Stella then off her arms, staring at Edgeworth deeply, and her tears streaming down again. "Jesus Christ, son, I never realized how handsome you are."

Edgeworth smiled a little, then said, "M-mom ... do you… want.. do you want.. to stay with me in my house?"

His mother indeed had abandoned him when he was small, but nevertheless, Mrs. Stella is his mother, his flesh and blood, and had conceived him for 9 months. His mother had risked her life to give him birth. No, he won't let his mother live alone in a filthy and small place like this.

Both Kay and Mrs. Stella gaped.

"M-miles? You can't be serious, right?" asked Mrs. Stella.

"Mom, I'm serious. Very serious. I shouldn't let you live in a house like this. I...I don't want to abandon my own mother, Mom... I won't you become clothes washerwoman again…But only if you want to.."

"Oh, my God, my boy! Of course I want to! Mom can take care and keep an eye on you! Oh, my boy! Thank you very much!" Mrs. Stella attacked Edgeworth cheeks with her kisses. Kay very pleased to see all of it. She had managed to reunite her boyfriend and her future mother-in-law.

It's been one month Mrs. Stella lives with Edgeworth. Initially, Edgeworth felt awkward and clumsy with his mother, but as the time goes by, he become close to his mother. He felt very happy now. Kay has returned to him, and he has fix his relationship with his mother. Kay's relationship with his mother also very good, even his mother forced Kay to call her "Mom" as well.

Every day, before going to work, Mrs. Stella along with Luciana always cooks his favorite food. Mrs. Stella also always kisses Edgeworth cheek before he left for work. Although he is already 35 years old, but Edgeworth very pleased to be kissed by his mother. Things he never gets while staying at Von Karma's home. And Edgeworth really regrets why he never realized before, that his mother loves him so much.

December 4 th, 2027
Miles Edgeworth's Home

Today is Saturday, Kay and Edgeworth had planned to spend the weekend to check up to the doctor. Kay became very talkative because it's been so long Edgeworth neglects his check-up schedule. She kept babbling, fix Edgeworth's watches, and combing Edgeworth's hair more than once.

"Miles, see your check-up schedule! I can't believe you neglect your check-up for over a month! Doctor Leona will be very angry with you, Miles, gee... and see how much your medicine remains! What if you unaware taking medicines that have expired? Miles, your illness is not a fever, not a chicken pox, this is your heart, Miles! The most vital organ in your life!" Kay babbles endlessly, while combing Edgeworth's hair. Edgeworth then shut Kay mouth with his hand.

"Mph!" Kay lowered Edgeworth's hands from her mouth with exasperation. "Miles, what the hell are you doing! I almost could not breathe, you know!"

"You're so beautiful when you're angry, Kay," teased Edgeworth. "As beautiful as Cruela Devil."

"Miles!" Kay pursed her lips. She then hit Edgeworth's head with the comb she was holding. "How dare you call your own girlfriend Cruela Devil! Feel this! This! And this!"

Edgeworth guffaws. "Because you're so chatty! Let's go now, we'll be late."

"HOLD IT!" exclaimed Kay suddenly. "You are too pale, Mr. Chief Prosecutor! Your handsomeness hidden behind that paleness! Here, I will polish your face!" Then Kay took a box of powder from Edgeworth's room desk drawer that Edgeworth hardly ever touch, and attacked Edgeworth's face with the powder sponge.

"Hey! I don't want my face oiled with a powder! Kay! Enough! I'm not a clown! I don't need a make-up, HEY!"

Edgeworth's face became very white because of the powder now. Kay burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.

"Miles, you're like ... like a sheep!"

"First cow, now sheep, am I your boyfriend or a zoo?"

"Ha ha, it was retaliation because you have called me Cruela Devil." Kay then kissed Edgeworth's cheeks.

"Miles, Kay, breakfast is ready!" Mrs. Stella's voice called them. They go into the dining room for breakfast before leaving for check-up.

"Be careful on the road, don't drive with high speed," said Mrs. Stella while kissed Kay's and Edgeworth's cheeks. "Hopefully the check-up result are good."

December 4 th, 2027
Hickfield Hospital
Dr. Leona's Office

"Woah, Mr. Chief Prosecutor! It's really a surprise! A pleasure to see you again," says Dr. Leona happily as Edgeworth and Kay arrived at the hospital. "How long have you didn't do a check-up, Mr. Chief Prosecutor?"

"One month, Dr. Leona," said Kay.

Doctor Leona dumbfounded. "One month, Mr. Chief Prosecutor? Do you realize how dangerous if you miss your check-ups? Who knows what will happen to your heart? What makes you neglect your check-up for so long, Mr. Chief Prosecutor?"

"Er ... um ... I don't wanna talk about it, Doctor," Edgeworth murmured with embarrassment.

"Okay, I don't want to meddle in your personal business. Now, take off your shirt, and lie down on that bed."

Kay help Edgeworth took off his shirt and lay down on the bed. Somehow, although she often escorted Edgeworth for check-up, Kay always feels scared. Doctor Leona then checks Edgeworth's heartbeat with a stethoscope, and massaging, pressing Edgeworth's chest slowly.

"Ow ... ow ... ow..slow down, Doctor." groaned Edgeworth. Doctor Leona raised an eyebrow.

"It's hurt, Mr. Chief Prosecutor? Hmmm ... this is strange, but I was massaging and pressing your chest slowly ..."

"What is strange, Doctor? Is Miles's heart condition deteriorated?" asked Kay frantically, while biting her nails.

"I don't know, Miss Faraday. Briefly, I will make a note of Mr. Chief Prosecutor heartbeat amount and I'll take it to the lab for analysis. You just wait here."

"Miles, it seems your heart condition worsened because you neglected your check up too long," said Kay after Dr. Leona go. "Miles, I should keep an eye on you, I'm sorry."

"Kay, what are you apologizing for? You are my lover, not my doctor or my nurse." said Edgeworth, and kiss Kay's hands. Just 20 minutes later, Dr. Leona reappeared and clutching a clipboard.

"So…. How the diagnosis, Doctor? How Miles's heart condition?" Kay asked nervously.

"From the data ... Your heart condition really weak, Mr. Chief Prosecutor. Your heart beats very slowly. Normally, for adults, heartbeat of an adult should in 60-100 beats per minute. You, you just have 30-40 beats per minute, Mr. Chief Prosecutor."

"And what does it supposed to mean, Doctor?" asked Edgeworth, swallowing hard.

"You had to be operated installation of the pacemaker once again, Mr. Chief Prosecutor. Very risky if you just ... "

Gulp. Surgery again?! No way...

"You mean, Miles's heart must be installed TWO pacemaker?!" Kay cried hysterically.

"Exactly, Miss Faraday. TWO pacemaker. Because Mr. Chief's heart condition is very, very weak. But, for the first step, I have to inject your chest for..."

"What?! Chest injection?!" exclaimed Edgeworth with a very high tone without him knowing it.

"Yes, Mr. Chief Prosecutor. We called these injections Revascor. This is to prevent you from get a sudden heart attack. Your potential heart attack increased by 70%, Mr. Chief Prosecutor ... If only you didn't neglect your check up ..." Dr. Leona sighed. "We do not want to take risk of you having a heart attack before the installation of the pacemaker surgery phase 2. Briefly, I'll take the syringe."

Beside fear of elevator, Edgeworth also very afraid of needles. Edgeworth's eyes widened with frightened and he squeeze Kay's hand when Dr. Leona takes out a syringe from her desk drawer. If the situation isn't as serious as this, Kay will burst out laughing see Edgeworth's green face that shows fear to be injected.

"Please don't release your hand, Kay," Edgeworth pleaded.

"I won't, Miles. It won't be long, only one injection, and it will done. No need to fear, I'm here for you, Miles."

"Okay, we're ready. Can you lay back, Mr. Chief Prosecutor?"

Slowly, Kay helps Edgeworth to lay back. Doctor Leona then stick the needle into Edgeworth's chest. A moment later, she pulls the needle out from Edgeworth's chest very fast.

"OOOOOOOOOOWWWW !" Edgeworth cried uncontrollably. Kay was furious. She wants to hit the doctor's head now. Why she didn't inject Miles's chest slowly? That was so harsh!

"Doctor," said Kay, trying not to sound angry, "Can't you inject Miles chest more slowly? I thought it was… too harsh…. And too…. Painful…"

"Sorry, Miss Faraday. But indeed, this is a way to inject the prevention of heart attack." Doctor Leona replied calmly. "Come on, just four more injections, Mr. Chief Prosecutor, after that you can go home."

"4 times again?!" shouted Edgeworth. "Can't I just go home now-"

"Unfortunately, the rule is you have to be injected five times, Mr. Chief Prosecutor. Are you ready?"

Doctor Leona inject Edgeworth's chest again, making Edgeworth continued to scream uncontrollably. Kay held Edgeworth's hand very tightly, hoping at least her hands could make Edgeworth's pain slightly reduced. After 20 minutes of agonizing and like hell for Edgeworth, he finally allowed to go home.

"Oh yes, Doctor, when Miles have to do the phase 2 surgery?" asked Kay as she helps Edgeworth wear his shirt back and get ready to go home.

"Later, I will call you, Miss Faraday. Good afternoon, Mr. Chief Prosecutor, Miss Faraday. Happy weekend."

December 4th, 2027
Miles Edgeworth's Home

"Kay, Miles? How's the check-up result?" asked Mrs. Stella when they return home. She is anxious to see her only son looked so in pain after discharge from the hospital.

"Miles must have surgery again, Mom," said Kay. "The installation of a pacemaker phase 2 surgery. Dr. Leona said Miles's heart condition is very weak and one pacemaker isn't enough. This is because Miles neglect his check-up for too long."

"Oh, dear, son..." sighed Mrs. Stella as she hugging Edgeworth. "You should not neglect the check-up ... Two pacemakers? Then, when are you going to be operated again, Miles?"

Edgeworth shrugged. "I don't know, Mom. Dr. Leona says she'll tell us."

"Why your chest bruised like that, Miles?" asked Mrs. Stella after realizing there was a bruise on Edgeworth's chest. "Are you falling down?"

"Miles's chest injected by Dr. Leona, Mom," Kay suddenly giggled. "Mom, you should see how terrified Miles is and his face turns green when he injected by Dr. Leona. He looks like Shrek!"

Mrs. Stella laughed, while Edgeworth pouted.

"Well, Miles, because you're going to operate again, you should eat nutritious foods! Meat, vegetables, carrots, broccoli, and so on!" said Kay. Edgeworth groaned softly.

"I don't want to! You know very well I don't like all kinds of vegetables, Kay..."

"But you must, naughty boy! You should eat healthy food! Agreed, Mom?"

"Kay's right, dear," said Mrs. Stella. "You must eat nutritious foods. Let's cook, Kay! One big bowl of vegetable soup just for Miles, how, do you agree?"

"Totally agree! Let's cook in the kitchen, Mom! And Miles, be a good boy, wait here, lying on the couch and watch your Steel Samurai DVD collections while me and Mom cooks for you!"

Edgeworth shrugged, muttering softly because he couldn't protest, then lay down on the couch. He turned on his Samurai Steel DVD and start watching.

Just 10 minutes Edgeworth watching the Steel Samurai DVD, Kay out of the kitchen.

"Kay? You have finished cooking? That was fast," said Edgeworth astonished.

"No, Miles. I'm going out for shopping carrots and tomatoes briefly in Shop Ink Mall. No tomatoes and carrots leftovers in the kitchen. I also want to buy new lipstick and make up, I have no leftover again."

Edgeworth rolled his eyes. "Women. You want me to drive you?"

"No, Miles. You just rest. I won't be long. See you later."

Kay kisses Edgeworth's cheeks, then go shopping. While his mother was busy in the kitchen, Edgeworth continues watching his Steel Samurai DVD. A few minutes later, because of exhaustion, he fell asleep. When Mrs. Stella came out of the kitchen with a cup of tea, she saw Edgeworth was asleep on the couch while the Steel Samurai DVD still turns on. Frowned, Mrs. Stella turn off the DVD. When put the disc into the packaging, Mrs. Stella laughed softly. She didn't expect her son, the Chief Prosecutor, is a fan of a show for the kids.

Didn't have the heart to wake Edgeworth, Mrs. Stella took a blanket from Edgeworth's room, and wrap the blanket around Edgeworth's body. She then kissed Edgeworth's forehead. Saw her only son looks so peaceful in his sleep, guilt feeling comes to Mrs. Stella's mind. If only she's not that naïve and didn't tempted with that man… Maybe she can monitor Edgeworth's health well. If she didn't abandoned Edgeworth, Edgeworth probably won't seriously ill like this. Her son only 35 years old, and he had to be fitted with two pacemakers.. Wiping her sudden wet eyes, Mrs. Stella returned to kitchen to continue cooking. She turned on the radio to listen to songs while cooking.

"... I'm sorry viewers, we must interrupted the Bryan Adams song. Breaking news, viewers! Shop Ink Mall were on fire right now, some people have been evacuated, but there is one person who still stuck on the 3rd floor. Our sources say that who were stuck on the 3rd floor of Shop Ink Mall is the prosecutor Miss Kay Faraday, 26 years old."

Prang. Mrs. Stella dropped the plates that she washed. Kay?! Kay trapped in a burning building? What should I say to Miles?

Before Mrs. Stella overcomes her shock, Edgeworth had appeared in the kitchen. Mrs. Stella apparently did not realize that she turned on the radio with loud volume.

"M-mom!" said Edgeworth. "K-kay! I heard that on the radio ... Did I misheard?!"

Mrs. Stella just shook her head slowly. Edgeworth bulging his eyes, then he turned around.

"Miles, wait, my boy!" cried Mrs. Stella. "Where are you going, dear?"

"I'll go there!" said Edgeworth while wearing his black jacket in a hurry, without looking towards Mrs. Stella.

"Wait, my boy! I'll go with you!"

December 4 th, 2027
Shop Ink Mall
Los Angeles City

Edgeworth hastily parked his car, then go down. There are so many people, all looked up at the Shop Ink Mall building that had been burned by wildfire. Edgeworth breaks through the people's crowd and met with one of the policemen who were busy talking with a walkie talkie.

"Officer!" said Edgeworth. "Is Kay Faraday still trapped in there?"

"Mr. Chief Prosecutor? Yes, that's right, Miss Faraday still stuck in there, we are calling for the rescue team... They're on their way here…."

"How long?!" shouted Edgeworth.

"About 45 minutes, Mr. Chief Prosecutor ..."

"45 MINUTES?!" Edgeworth cried uncontrollably. "She could be burn into ashes!" Without another thought, Edgeworth took off his jacket, then throws it to the ground.

"H-hey!" cried the police. "Mr. Chief Prosecutor, what are you going to do?! Wait here! You can't go there! It's too dangerous!" The policeman holding Edgeworth's waist tightly to prevent him go to the building.

"Let go! Let me go!" cried Edgeworth. He then kicked the police shins. The police roared in pain and release his grip from Edgeworth's waist. Edgeworth ran toward the mall building, ignoring the cries of his mother and the crowd of people who told him to come back.

Edgeworth began to climb the mall burning building. His legs and hands shaking, his chest pain began to recurred, and he began to choke. Edgeworth knew his actions were stupid, he knows this is very dangerous, he is afraid of heights, but he didn't care. What is his mind right now only that Kay trapped in there, in a burning building, and he must save her. Now he understood why Wright willing to do something as stupid as crossed burning bridge to save Maya. He always said Wright was an idiot, because reckless of risk his life. And here he is now, climb the burning building to save Kay. Because when someone madly in love, they will be willing to do any stupid and dangerous things.

Edgeworth painstakingly trying to get away from the fire spreading and clinging to one of the windows. Several times he almost slipped, but managed to continue to climb. His chest pain feels more severe than before, but he ignored it.

Nggh! Come, come on, my chest, please, you must cooperate with me! Kay trapped inside, come on, go on, a little more you're up in the 3rd floor! Kay... you'll be fine... You must be fine…

Panting and began to run out of breath, Edgeworth continued to climb again, while the fire was getting bigger. Edgeworth dodges again, his shoes feels very slippery. He moves his feet a little to take off his shoes down. After his foot becomes bare, Edgeworth becomes easier to climb. Finally he reached the 3rd floor. What a relief when he heard Kay's voice.

"PLEASE! HELP ME! I'M ALMOST OUT OF BREATH! MY LEGS HIT BY A POLE!"

"Kay!" said Edgeworth. "Calm down, Kay, I am coming soon!"

"Mm-miles?"

"Yes, Kay, it's me! Keep calm!"

Edgeworth climbs up to the left, following the direction of Kay's voice. He passed two windows, and when he gets to the fourth window on the third floor, he could see Kay's shadow from the outside. Carefully Edgeworth entered through the window. Half running, he approached Kay. She looks very limp because her legs crushed by the pole.

"MILES!" said Kay. "Miles, gee, this is very dangerous, your heart ..."

"This is not the time to discuss about my heart, Kay!" shouted Edgeworth. "We need to get out of here!"

Ignoring the unbearable pain in his chest, Edgeworth trying to raise the pole that hit Kay's legs. It's heavy. Finally, after four attempts, Edgeworth managed to get rid the pole from Kay's legs.

"Can you walk, Kay?"

"Y-yes, Miles."

"Then, quickly climbing the window! I'll follow you behind!"

Kay nodded, then ran out through the window, while Edgeworth following behind. Climbing the building is not a new thing for Kay, and this is one of her specialties. She could go down of the building quickly, before she finally passed out in the yard, and paramedics immediately put the oxygen tube to her mouth and took her into the ambulance.

Meanwhile, Edgeworth is still trying hard to get down the burning building. He accidentally looks down, and it makes him feels dizzy instantly.

Gulp... People and Mom look like ants from up here... You will reach the bottom soon, Edgeworth, just a bit…. You can do it….

When he reached the second floor, the fire suddenly came out of the window that he used for preventing him from falling. Shocked, Edgeworth takes off both of his hands from the edge of the window, and he plummeted down.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"MILES! MY SON!"

"MR. CHIEF PROSECUTOR !"

And, the last thing Edgeworth know, his entire body so hurt, as if it's been beaten by thousands people, and everything suddenly became dark.
