CHAPTER 10
“What ??!!” Uchi widened his eyes, surprised to hear Ryo secret idea while Ueda just blink his eyes.
“We have no choice…” Ryo said and looked to Ueda in pitiful eyes. Hoping that his boyfriend wouldn’t object.
“Well~” Ueda finally said. “We should try and not wasting anymore time..”he gaze on Erika’s lifeless body on the bed. It’s funny, when he was so annoyed by Erika talkative mouth who keep asking so many stupid thing and grinned face, now Ueda felt that he really missed it. If only he could see that again. “But !! behave..” he manage to put the last warned in his sentence.
“Okay..” Ryo smiles and nodded his head before leaned to Ueda and gave a peck on his cheek. With an unsure step, he leave the room.
+++++
“Please..” Ryo tried his best to make his puppy eyes.
“But…” the doctor whose name was Takahashi Minami just scratched her forehead, not knowing how to answer. “She’s dying Nishikido-kun..how could I approved it”.
“That’s why I’m begging you to let me take her out,” Ryo still with his puppy eyes. Okay Ryo, here comes the tough part-creating a plot.. “Erika is like my baby sister, we take care of her since her parent died. And I still remember she said when the first time she knew about her sickness, she told me that she want to die at home, and buried next to her parents..so sad..”Ryo have no idea where the hell that idea come from but the face that he made right now totally was ASOU HARUTO face. He actually tried really hard to make the story looks real and of course-SAD.
“But.. didn’t you said that you don’t know about her sickness?” the doctor ask curiously while her eyes keep eyeing on him. But for sure not for seeking the truth but to observe Ryo gorgeous face. It wasn’t all time chances Ryo would standing not more than 5 meters from her and practically was talking to her.
Ryo felt as if his knee were broken. He still tried to look cool. “I lied..” he said while forcing his mind and brain to think more excuses. “ I’m sorry that I lied but I have a strong reason to do so..as a doctor, you may already know how people face their sickness when they thought they healthy. And how they would wanna people around them pretend to look like they don’t know,”..whuuhh~~kakkoi naa Ryo..you really a good actor.
“Nishikido-kun, we can’t just get her out from this hospital when her condition were really bad. All human deserve a proper treatment and…”before she could finish her word, Ryo quickly grab her hand and squeeze it firmly.
“Please..” he looked at her directly. Man~this lady really tough..and if hime saw me like this..I’m died…
“Nishikido-kun.. I ..” obviously the doctor also lost his word. Ryo face were really convincing after all, finally she gave up. “Okay..”
“Honto? Arigato ..hontoni arigato..” Ryo pulled her closer and hug her tightly until she can’t breathe properly. Actually, Ryo was too happy to realize that.
“Unn..you’re welcome..” the doctor manage to say it after Ryo loosed the hug. “But promise to take care of her and you know who to find me if you ever change your mind..ne?”
“I know..Thanks Takahashi-san..” he said happily before leaving her.
Takahashi Minami sighed heavily. Hoping that she was doing the right thing. After all, it was Nishikido Ryo request and at least, she can force herself to think that this was okay-maybe~~~
+++++
“Woooouuu…calm down Ryo-chan. You’re not going to kill us by driving like this isn’t it??” Uchi mumbled.
“I guess Uchi was right..you don’t want to mess with police isn’t it? Especially at the time like this?” Ueda added.
Ryo inhaled deeply. “I’m sorry…” he said and gaze on Erika from the small mirror. He could see Erika still not open her eyes and remain unconscious with her head on Uchi’s lap.
Hold on Erika-chan..we’ll get you there..
+++++
Uchi was amazed after he saw the capsules. It’s seems so-high technology. So this is the thing that bring Erika here. Sugoi~~
“Hiroki..enough with your jaw dropped and help me to carry her. She’s kinda heavy..” Ryo said. He was giving her a piggy ride from the car until they reached to the capsules.
“How to open the door?” Ueda asked as he observe the capsules carefully.
“How am I supposed to know..” Ryo murmured.
Uchi who already step on reality finally leaned closer to the capsules and knock it a few times. “Hello..open sesame..”
Ueda snorted. “Yeah right-as if it would work..”
But before they could start the argue and fight, the capsules suddenly open and some bright light came out from it. Ryo quickly place Erika inside the capsules and take a few step back. Her figure were surrounded by haze and light.
After ten minutes, the light and haze fade away. Erika get out from the capsules with smiles.
“Minna…” she waved to them. “Arigato..”she bow deep.
Without wasting anymore time, uchi quickly hug her while Ryo and Ueda surprised by his reaction. “Erika.. finally you’re awake..you make us damn worry..let’s go home..”he said and took her hand. Unfortunately she froze there and just shook her head.
“I can’t..” she said with a sad toned.
“But …” uchi frowned.
“Hiroki..she can’t..” Ryo said.
“It’s time for her to go..”Ueda added.
Uchi turned to her and looked directly to her eyes-hoping that she would say they were wrong. Unfortunately, he could only see a soft tear flow from it. “Erika..”
“Minna.. I’m sorry. I have to go. I can’t stay here longer. Thank you for being with me all the time and make me feel happy. Family bonding is really beautiful and I’m so grateful to feel that..” tears keep rolling to her.
All of them remain silent . Only Erika sob were heard sometimes. Ryo could feel his eyes started to glisten. Ueda look really sad and Uchi turned his head away.
“Family hug?” Ryo suddenly come to the suggestion as they remain silent for a few minutes. Offering his hand wider, Erika quickly run to him and hug Ryo tightly. Ueda joined them later as Ryo gave him a signal to do so . He embrace both Erika and Ryo from behind.
“Hiroki..” Ryo called for his best friend but Uchi still refused to joined them.
“Uchi..come on you little brat..” Ueda said-half shouted. Uchi still didn’t looked at them, he just put his hand in his jacket and ignore them.
Both Ryo and Ueda just shook their head. After releasing the hug, Erika give a peck on both of their cheek. “Arigat Ryo-kun, Hime..”
Ueda greeted his teeth, “I told you not to call me hime..aish~”
Erika just reply with grinned and walked toward Uchi. “Uchi-sama..arigato..” she said and embrace him from behind.
Uchi couldn’t hold his tears as he felt Erika’s forehead on his back. “I don’t want to say goodbye..”he said finally.
Ryo and Ueda just chuckled. “He cry..now wonder he didn’t join our family hug..do you know how ugly Uchi Hiroki face when he cry?” Ryo exclaimed.
Ueda laughed. “I never know that..”
“I’m sorry..”Erika said to Uchi and released her hand.
Tried his best to not crying, Uchi finally face her. “I’m happy that you become a part of us..even it’s just for a while, I really appreciate that..”he said and kiss her forehead.
“Thanks..me too..” she replied.
Before she enter the capsules again, Ryo shouted. “Ne Erika-chan..someday you’ll come again?”
Erika smiles. “Maybe..”
“Ano Erika..” now it’s Uchi turn to spoke out. “Among all of us, who do you think the kakkoi one?”
“Baka..!!” ueda smack his head.
Erika grinned. “ All of you..”
“Aish~that’s not an answer.Hmm~which one do you like the most among us?” Ueda asked.
Erika scratched her head. “It’s a secret..” she said and enter the capsules.
“Goodbye Erika..”
Within a second, the capsules gone and there’s only a plain grass in front of them. They decided to get back to the car.
“Ano-Ryo was right, Uchi look really ugly when he cry..” Ueda teased.
“Shut up..” Uchi glare to him.
“Okay..enough..please..” Ryo said to them. Deep inside, he felt really sad. As if a part of him were gone. All the memory keep playing through his mind.
It’s you Ryo-kun..
Ryo suddenly stop on his feet and frowned.
“Nande?” Uchi tapped his shoulder.
“Err-nothing…”he said. He was sure he heard Erika voice in his mind. Looking up to sky, Ryo could see as if the sky were smiling to them.
Wrapping his arm on both Uchi and Ueda’s shoulder, Ryo smiles. “She likes me”he said in joking tone.
“Huhh?” Ueda frowned.
“Noo-it’s me..”Uchi said with confident.
“Me..” Ueda raised his free hand. “Because she looked for me before accident..”
“Haha…” Ryo teased both of them and get a hard knock on the head. “Itaii~~”
“Haha..” Uchi and Ueda said together.
