"Mummy, is there something wrong?" Kenji asked. Mai looked at her son and smiled then went back to the road. "Everything is fine, honey, your father just misses you that's all."

Gene was asleep in the back seat. He was dreaming, a smile on his face. But then the smile faded and he bolted up screaming, "Keiko!"

Mai wanted to stop the car reassure him but there was no where to stop. So she took the all the short cuts to the hospital.

"Mum, why is Keiko in hospital?" Gene asked. Serves me right for trying to hide things from these boys. Mai thought. And she told them.

They cried all the way there. They were not just upset they were furious with the man who did this. The man tried to kill their sister and their father.

Mai was more upset then angry. Her little girl sick.

They got to the hospital just before dinner thanks to the short cuts. They parked the car and ran in the building where Eugene, Lin, Madoka, Macarius, Luella, Martin, Minko, Nina, Rich, Sonia, Ayako and Bou-san were waiting at the main entrance with tears in their eyes. Madoka saw Mai first and she ran over to her. "Oh Mai." She whispered and hugged her.

Mai returned the hug. Then Madoka bent down to Gene and Kenji's height to talk to them. "Are you hungry?"

They were too upset for their sister. "Mummy wants to see daddy and Keiko alone for a moment. You can get anything you want." Mai said to the boys who went with Madoka and Macarius to the food court.

Mai went over the others and asked, "Which floor?" "Second floor, room 1." Nina said. Mai turned to Lin and whispered, "Thank you." Lin nodded.

Mai made it to Keiko's room to find Naru sitting at the head of the bed with his back to her. Mai touched his shoulder and Naru jumped and swirled to face her. Luckily he was sitting on a low stool. "Mai..." He whispered then he grabbed her by the waist and hid his face in her stomach to hide the tears that kept pouring down cheeks uncontrollably. Mai held his head tightly and cried in his hair.

After a while pull apart. "Where are Gene and Kenji?" Naru asked, after he got himself in check.

"With Madoka getting something to eat. Gene had a dream about Keiko on the way here. But he wouldn't tell me what it was about. Kenji is just upset and scared for his sister." Mai replied and Naru nodded.

"What did the doctor say?"

"He said that she is doing all right. Her tiny body couldn't cope with that much poison. But like her mother she put up a good fight. If she wasn't a medium she would have died."

"Not like me. Like you." Mai shook her head slowly.

"Like both of you." Madoka's voice came from the door way. On either side of her was Gene and Kenji. When the brothers saw their father they ran up to him. "Daddy." Naru gathered his sons up in his arm and hugged them tightly.

The family refused to move from Keiko's side. Mai went to tell the others that they should go home. "I'll call you if anything happens." She said when they refused to leave. They went to Rich and Sonia's house because it was closer to the hospital. "And please get some sleep." Mai called out to them as walked out of the automatic doors.

Soon Mai asleep with her head on the hospital bed and she was hold Keiko's hand. Naru was asleep on one of the big lounge chairs with his boys on his lap.

Kenji woke up and rubbed his eyes with his fists, he looked at his father then his brother, they were asleep. Then Kenji quietly slipped off his father's lap and went to his mother. Asleep. Then a man in a white coat came in. The man saw him. "Oh hello, you must be Kenji, I'm DR. Zilian, I'm helping your sister." The man said kneeling down. "You know I have two boy myself about your age."

Kenji liked this man. The man is a doctor and is helping Keiko get better. He looks like Ayako-san. "Are you thirsty?" The doctor asked. Kenji nodded eagerly. The doctor laughed and raffled his hair. "I'll get on your sister and then I'll go and get you some apple juice, is that okay?"

"Sister first." Kenji replied. "I will."

The doctor checked on Keiko. "Is she getting better?" Kenji asked. The doctor sighed. "She' ll wake up soon."

Kenji nodded and sat down at the table. "I'll be back, hey, do you like card games?" The doctor asked, trying to cheer the little boy up. The boy nodded. "Well I finished work for the night and I need to speak to your mummy and daddy anyway."

"Okay."

"Okay, I'll be back in a second."

The doctor left and Kenji went up to the bed and sat down on the end of it. Keiko, can you hear me?

Kenji?

Wake up.

No, it hurts to much.

Mummy and Daddy are crying for you so is Gene.

I don't want mummy and Daddy to cry...

Keiko? Nothing. She blocked him out. The triplets can talk to each other in their minds.

The doctor came back with apple juice and crackers and cheese and a pack of cards. "What would you like to play?" The doctor asked as Kenji sat back down at the table.

"Go fish."

"Okie dokie."

They played that for awhile then they switched to chess, which the doctor found in the staff room. It was Kenji's turn when Naru woke up. Naru placed a hand on Kenji's shoulder and Kenji looked up at him, "hello daddy."

Naru looked at the doctor. "I came in to check on Keiko and found this one a wake and he was thirsty so I got him and his brother some apple juice. I'm finished for the night. I need to talk to you and your wife when she wakes up. I thought I might keep Kenji occupied until you wake up." The doctor replied just as Kenji won the game. "Check mate." He said happily.

"You have a smart boy here."

Naru smiled at his second oldest. "Yeah I know. And thank you for watching him." "Not a problem. I have two boys on my own. I better go and call them."

Just then Mai woke up. "Mai, the doctor said that he needed to talk to us." Naru said as she stood up next to him.

The doctor stood and nodded to the door. Naru and Mai followed him out of the room. "Well doctor?" Mai asked as soon as Naru closed the door behind him.

"The poison has gone and Keiko should make a complete recovery." The doctor said with a warm happy smile on his face.

Naru and Mai sighed with relief. Then Gene came bursting out of the room. "Mummy, daddy, Keiko is a wake."

Naru, Mai and and the doctor raced back in to the room to find Keiko's eyes were barley open. But she was a wake.

The doctor ran a light over her eyes, Keiko closed them against the light and reopened slightly when the light disappeared. " Okay now Keiko, can you hear me? Say yes or just nod."

Keiko opened her moth and nodded. "Can you open your eyes for me?"

"So tired." Keiko whispered.

"I know sweetheart, but just stay a wake for a few more seconds. Can you see your mummy?"

Keiko looked around and spotted her mother, smiled and nodded. "Mummy." She said sleepily.

Mai tried to resist the urge to hug her baby girl so tight and never let her go. "Good girl now can you see you daddy?"

Keiko searched the room for him and found him right next to her mother. "Daddy." Naru nodded to tell her that she is a good girl and she seemed to get the message.

"Good girl, now where are your brothers?" Keiko found them at the end of the bed.

Dr. Zilian stood up and turned to Naru and Mai. "I would like to keep her here for a few more days for observation, then she will be able to go home."

There you have it Keiko is healthy. Sorry for not updating. Please R&R.
