Chapter 13

-One month later-

Ran was making dinner. She's really happy because her mother would come to eat together.

"Oi, Ran. There's a call for you.", said Kogoro.

"Hai. Who is it, otousan?", said Ran.

"Don't know, maybe that detective boy's mother. She's crying on the phone.", said Kogoro.

"Yukiko-san, are you okay?", said Ran.

"Yeah I'm okay. But I have something to tell you Ran.", said Yukiko in very sad tone.

"Eh. What is it?", said Ran curiously.

"It's about Shin-chan.", said Yukiko.

"Eh Shinichi? What happened Yukiko-san?, said Ran.

"He's dead. He's shot by his client enemy and they threw him and his client to the sea. Their clothes are found by the nearby fisherman covered in blood and bullet holes.", said Yukiko.

"What? He's dead.", Ran let the phone fell down. She began to cry.

"Why? Why he must die? I thought he's just joking when he told me that he might die.", Ran cried loudly.

Then the door opened.

"Good evening, Anata, Ran.", said Eri.

"Eri.", said Kogoro while he moved his finger to Eri's lips.

"What happen, anata?", said Eri lower her voice.

"That boy's dead. Just now her mother called. She's very sad now.", said Kogoro.

"Eh. Shinichi-kun is dead.", Eri shocked.

"Can you come with me for minutes?", said Kogoro

"Yeah.", said Eri. They walked outside the room.

"Eri. Can you come home? Live here again. It's not for me. It's for Ran. She needs you. Now that Conan has left, and that boy died, she'll need someone to comfort her and I know that I can't do that. I promise to you that I'll do anything so you'll come back to us.", said Kogoro in serious face.

"Anata. I know that. Of course I'll be by her side when she needs me. You don't have to do anything. Just promise me to stop picking on other woman and watching horse races all the time also play mahjong everyday.", said Eri.

"I promise Eri.", said Kogoro before he hugged Eri.

"Arigatou anata. I really want us to live together as well as Ran. I love you anata.", said Eri.

"I love you too, Eri. You're the only woman for me. Now, cheer Ran up, she needs you.", said Kogoro.

"Yes, I know that, Anata.", said Eri.

-Meanwhile-

"How is it? My acting is still good, isn't it?", said Yukiko.

"Yeah. Very good indeed. How is she?", said Conan.

"I think her heart broke when she heard you die.", said Ai.

"Yeah, she cried as soon as I tell her.", said Yukiko.

"It's for the good. It's better if she just forget about me. I don't want her to meet danger.", said Conan.

-Next Day-

She's crying all the night. Next to her, there was her mother. She's better this morning after her mom told her that she would live there again. She's eating breakfast when suddenly someone opened the door.
