Jayden strummed on his guitar softly on the porch. He had nothing else to do. He didn't have any classes to get to until later in the day. After last night's drama, nearly everyone left the house. Kevin and Erika stayed at the Shiba house to watch over Mia (who is feeling better). Terry said he had to go but will be back later. Catherine and Ji went home after caring for Mia. Emily and Mike also went home. Serena had to get back to the countryside to help her parents with the farm. Antonio went to work. Lauren only got out of bed to use the bathroom and get a slice of toast that she called breakfast. She claimed she's depressed and isn't speaking to anyone.

"Hi Jayden, how are you?" Emily walked up to him in the pathway. She held two large notepads in her arms with two paint brushes.

"Hey Emily." Jayden greeted her. "I'm doing okay, how about you?"

"I'm bored! Mike left me and went to work so I came here to hang out with you and Lauren." She showed him the notepads and paint brushes.

"What's with the notepads?"

"I figured since Mia fainted yesterday, Lauren and I could start practicing on the healing symbol today. Where is Lauren anyways?"

"Sorry Em, but Lauren isn't in the mood today. She and Cody had a little fallout last night. Mia is feeling better though, I'm sure she'd love to see you."

Emily frowned in disappointment. "Okay, I guess I'll go see Mia then." Emily passed Jayden to open the front door. The Shiba house was abnormally quiet. Just when she was going knock on Mia's door, she heard talking coming from the other side.

"Ji told me what's going on, you know." Mia said to Kevin. She sat up in bed and rubbed her stomach gently. "You don't have to hide it from me anymore. I can't believe all of you guys knew and didn't tell me. We could've prevented last night's accident from happening."

"I'm sorry baby." Kevin kissed his wife's hand. "We just didn't want to worry you."

"What is wrong with Mia?" Erika asked. "Am I missing something here?"

"The baby is getting stronger by the weeks." Kevin said. "It has my water powers and its hurting Mia very, very badly."

"So you're saying my future granddaughter could possibly be…"

"Killing your daughter…" Kevin swallowed the lump in his throat. He's in the process of losing his one and only love. The person that makes him feel like life is worth living everyday when he wakes up in the morning.

Erika started to pace the room. "This is too much for me to take in. I should've known about the elements mixing between samurais."

Mia got out of bed to hug her mother. "I'm going to be okay Mom." She sobbed. She wished she had known sooner that the baby hurting her but now she knew why they kept it secret from her. She doesn't know what to do now that the word is out. Should she keep working at the daycare? Kids are a lot of trouble to take care of. What if her fall had just been a onetime thing? Some pregnant women did experience fainting during their pregnancy. Many thoughts including those spun through Mia's head.

Mia pulled away from her mother. She gathered up a few of her baby's gifts from the ground. "Help me pack the car Kevin. I want to start setting up the nursery today."

Erika opened the door, almost hitting Emily. "Excuse me Emily." Erika pushed pass Emily with Kevin carrying the crib Terry got for his niece on the way.

"You're going home?" Emily asked Mia.

"Yeah, we'll talk later." Mia sighed. "I just don't want to be here right now."

"Okay…" Emily hugged her sister goodbye. She kept her notepads and paint brushes close to her chest and went to find Lauren. She heard everything going on in the room. Surely she couldn't be too depressed that she didn't want to save Mia.

"Lauren, get out of bed!" Emily dropped her stuff on the floor and began to jump on Lauren's bed. "Don't tell me I have to go through the same thing I go through at home with Mike."

"Emily, stop!" Lauren cried from under her bed sheets. Emily did as she was told and stopped. She pushed the sheets off of Lauren. Lauren looked like she got lost in a tornado. Her hair was a huge mess. Her face was as red from her hard crying. Emily climbed into the bed and lay next to her.

"What happened? Why are you so sad today?" Emily grabbed her tissue from the bed stand. Lauren's mouth started to quiver again. "Please don't cry."

"Cody left me!" Lauren busted into tears. She buried her head into her pillow.

"Why?"

"I never told him we were rangers until yesterday. I haven't been honest to him. Now he's mad at me because he thinks I don't trust him!"

"Have you tried calling him?" Emily combed the hair in Lauren face with her fingers. "Maybe he just needed time for it to sink in. Being a samurai's boyfriend is a lot to ask for."

"He won't pick up his phone." Lauren groaned.

"First time break ups are tough, huh?" Emily hopped off the bed and waved the paint brushes in the air. "Can we at least practice the healing symbol? I got cool new brushes at the dollar store. We can get more. Buy one, get one free."

Lauren wiped her tears in her pajama sleeve and smiled. "Really? Is the red one for me?"

"Yeah…"

"Cheap brushes aren't going to make me feel better!" Lauren once again, dove into her sheets and buried her head with her pillow.

"This is going to be a long day." Emily grumbled.

"Welcome to the Garci…Cody?" Antonio looked at his latest customer's face. He didn't expect to see Cody at his restaurant. He would actually be the last person he would expect there especially after what happened between him and Lauren.

"I didn't know you were a waiter too." Cody exchanged the same confused expression on Antonio's face.

"Not really, I like to be in the kitchen sometimes frying up fish." Antonio sat across from Cody casually. He messed up his relationship with Lauren, not him. "This is my family's restaurant. My old room was about two stories up from this table upstairs." He pointed to the ceiling to show Cody.

Cody nodded slightly at who he now knew is the gold samurai. He felt like he was meeting someone new like Antonio needed special treatment. It didn't seem Antonio really mind that Lauren shared his secret identity with him. He tried to relax. Antonio isn't angry at him.

"What happened to your hand?" Antonio gestured to Cody's bandaged hand. Lauren never explained the full break up to him.

"Lauren burnt it."

"Yeah, she does that." Antonio chuckled. "You know, you really hurt her. She's been crying all day."

"She hurt me too." Cody shrugged.

"I understand but you are her first boyfriend. Can you maybe talk about it with her? She's never been though a break up…or burnt anyone except Jayden by accident."

"I guess I'll think about it. I make no promises and I was never here."

"Got it, I won't breathe a word to Lauren."

"Do you have any fish fillet here?" Cody rubbed his bandaged hand.

Antonio gave him a grin and wrote down his order. "Coming right up amigo!"
