Fifteenth Chance
There is a phrase saying that 'Time flies like a wind'. And truth to be told, sometimes you did not realized how much time has passed as you walk on. And so you sometimes forget, that the time you have to cherish the people you love around you is limited, until it was far too late.
"Okay, that's it. Let's all work hard for our last concert then !" Hikaru raise his fist to the air. "Fight-o !"
"OUH !!" The other 9 members of JUMP followed suit as they are also raising their fists up to the air.
"I'm nervous~" Yuto whine as he paces around the room.
"Oh, come on Yuto. It's the last day already and you're feeling nervous still ?" Teased the college-student Inoo while he tries fixing his hair.
"Don't mind him, Inoo-chan~ Yutti is always nervous for everything~" Chinen chided in.
"Stop it, you two. It's not nice teasing others. Anyway, you'd better get ready soon. The concert is starting." Yabu comes in and lecture the two of them before turning his head toward the teen who had been watching the scene amusedly. "Yama-chan, don't push yourself too hard, okay ?"
Turning his head toward the concerned Mother of JUMP, Ryosuke just grin while giving him a victory smile. "Wakatta yo, Yabumama."
Nodding his head in understanding, Yabu the turned his heels and leading the rest of them out to the stage. After two years being called 'Mama' officially, Yabu had resigned to the reality and accepted that title. Though he could remember ticking a vein every time his name being called for the first few weeks, he had became so used to it now he did not even flinch at the nickname.
Yes, it had been two years since they head the news. It had been two years since they knew about Ryosuke's sickness. It had been two years since their chaotic times. It had been two years, since Sugihara-sensei told them about Ryosuke's timelimit.
Truth to be told, Yabu had been real anxious about this. Sugihara-sensei told him that Ryosuke could only last about two years, three if he's lucky. And the countdown has been nearing it's end. It's only about times 'till Ryosuke d- NO. He shouldn't think that way. He musn't. There's still hope for them -him. And for the time being, he just would make Ryosuke enjoy his times.
Looking at the said boy smiling heartily during the MC of their concert, Yabu couldn't help but make a bitter smile. Almost nothing had changed despite the huge difference on Ryosuke's health. He's still the same old Yamada Ryosuke who would keep on smiling no matter what happened. Ever since they told Johnny-san about Ryosuke's condition and his wish to continue performing, the old man showed them a sad smile before agreeing to the boy's demand. A quite large numbers of dances had been cut for each of their performances so that Ryosuke could still cope up with the routine. The other had been okay with that, stating that they were actually glad they could actually save a lot of energy from this, but Ryosuke seemed distracted with the decision. He had protested to the idea and exclaimed that he still can cope up with the usual routine, though they all know he wouldn't. But after a few convincing words and soem strawberry bribing, they boy had gave up and follow the rules.
Nothing much had happened after that. Ryosuke had cope up well and managed to perform like he used to. Well, not quite the same, but not that big of a difference either. Only some collapses after a very tiring day, but he would recover soon enough and rejoin them again. After some check-ups he had attended with Ryosuke, he had learnt that Ryosuke is doing well with his therapies and medications. It's almost as if there is still a chance for Ryosuke to get cured. Almost.
"KYAAAAAA !!!"
The sudden horrified screams from their fans brought Yabu back from his thoughts. Frantically sweeping his eyes for the source of the chaos, he could feel cold sweats dripping from his forehead when he found it.
"Nooo..." Whispering to himself, Yabu quickly rushed toward the fallen member of JUMP, even passing Chinen who is also running with all his might.
"The staff had called for an ambulance, for the time being, we should move Yama-chan to a more secluded area." Hikaru quickly told him as he finally reached the spot where Ryosuke had suddenly fainted.
"What happened ?" He asked worriedly.
Yabu feels his eyes watered when Hikaru shake his head.
"I don't know, Kota. He just suddenly collapsed like that. I just don't know." Hikaru's shoulder slumped down as he put his eyes on his aching head. "He was just fine a moment ago and he suddenly..."
Putting a hand on Hikaru's shoulder, Yabu quickly giving a gentle squeeze as if to give the younger boy an assurance. "Neither of us expecting this, Hikaru. Let's just, let's just hope Yama-chan will be alright."
"I'm taking Yama-chan to our dressing room."
Both teen quickly turned their heads toward Takaki's direction who is carrying Ryosuke bridal style and is walking quickly to the backstage, followed suit by almost the rest of them who were to worried to even care that they are still in the middle of their concert, leaving Yabu and Hikaru standing still on the stage, with Inoo not too far from them talking with one of the staff.
"We need to make an announcement to the audience. About whether we will continuing our concert or stopping it midway." Inoo quickly whispering to them after he finished talking with the staff, with the said man seen running hurriedly to the backstage. "And judging by the situations, I've talked to the staff that it would be safe for us to stop it. Though about how will we compensate with the audience, I have no idea. Sanada-san is talking this matter to Johnny-san right now. Let's just hope the old man will understand."
"Yeah." Yabu nod in agreement. "I will tell the audience about our decision then."
Grabbing the nearest microphone available, Yabu then proceeded to face the audience with Hikaru and Inoo followed suit and stand on each of his sides. Poking the microphone slightly to found it on, Yabu then clear his throat before giving an explanation to the audience.
"Okyaku ni minna-sama," Yabu paused to clear his throat once again as he found it unexpectedly dry. "We are truly sorry for the inconveniences, but we are afraid that we must stop today's live for a little accident had happened earlier. We would try to compensate for this in the-"
"Kota." Hikaru's call stopped Yabu from continuing as he following Hikaru's hand which is pointing to an elder man standing just behind the curtain.
Yabu then nod his head for a bit, indicating that he had seen the man before turning his head back to the audience. "I'm sorry, there is a sudden urgent call. We will return immediately. Shitsureishimasu."
The three teens then bowing low for a bit before rushing their way to face their Boss.
"Johnny-san." Yabu, followed suit by Hikaru and Inoo quickly bow to the old man standing before them.
"Yabu, Yaotome, Inoo." The said man replying their gestures by nodding his head in acknowledgement. "I have heard about the situation."
"Yes. Johnny-san, we are sorry but I think we cannot-"
"I undestand, Yabu. I do. Do not worry. I'm not that evil of a man. Today's concert shall be halted. It will be re-hold 3 days from today. The audiences don't have to pay for the ticket as the compensations." Explained the old man calmly.
The three teens widen their eyes in surprise, before they bow their heads once again in gratitude. "Hontou ni arigatou gozaimashita !"
"It's okay, really." They looked up to see a tired smile adorning the head of Johnnys Ent.'s face. "Now, you, go and meet your fans. You are all dismissed for the day. The staffs will be taking care of the rest."
Nodding their heads toward their Boss, the three of them then quickly scurrying out of the backstage to inform the audiences about the decision that was just been made. As they made their way outside, they failed to see the smile had faltered the old man's face, replaced by a sober expression.
"Poor kids. I hope everything goes well for them." Sighing deeply, the man then turned away to leave the place.

"How is Ryosuke doing, Sensei ?"
Hikaru quickly lift his head up at the statement and quickly approach the Yamadas who is currently talking with Sugihara-sensei who was just walked out the emergency room, with Yabu tailing not too far behind him.
"I supposed we talk in my room." Sugihara glanced towards the two teens standing behing the worried parents. "Privately."
Hikaru's body tensed at this. What was it so bad that they couldn't know ?
Yamada Kuniharu turned his head towards the two teens behind him and his wife before facing back the Oncologist in front of them. "No, Sensei. The two of them were like a family. Whatever it is, you could just spill it her now because they will know anyway."
Hikaru watched the Doctor sighed before nodding his head in understanding. "I understand. But still, it would be better if we're talking this in my office."
"O-kay." Agreed Kuniharu before the four of them following the said Doctor to his office.
Once the five of them already settled inside the quite spacey office, Sugihara started browsing through his folders and grab one folder labeled 'Yamada Ryosuke'. Taking his time opening the pink-colored folder, Sugiharu then clear his throat before starting explaining.
"As I have mentioned before two years ago, Ryosuke-kun is suffering from B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukimia, or CLL for short, and that his ZAP-70 marker is positive. Our test had told us that two years ago, Ryosuke-kun has approximately two or three years left. And as we are all have realized, two years has passed since. I was actually predicting that Ryosuke-kun could survived longer for his condition was always so good these couple of years. But even so, this incident happened. As I did a few checks just now, it is proved that Ryosuke-kun's condition is currently deteriorating." Said the man before he jolted some new informations on Ryosuke's folder.
"Then, does it mean- ?"
"We are still not sure, Yamada-san." Sugihara cut off the woman's question. "But I am afraid, that Ryosuke-kun wouldn't last long anymore. About a month I said. Two if we're lucky."
Yamada Rie immediately broke down at this. Her husband, trying to hold back his tears himself, reaching out to give her comfort by embracing her.
"Then, what should we do, Sensei ?" Kuniharu asked softly, his voice sounded strained.
"Just, be there for him. Give him as many as precious memories you could. Tell him that no matter what happen, you will always love him. So that he won't have any regrets, if his time has come." Said Sugihara, surprisingly, with a strained voice as well.
Kuniharu takes a deep breath as he hugs his wife tighter. "I, I understand. We will try to be strong for him. Thank you very much, Sensei. I, We will leave now." He bows before turning away and leave the room.
"Then, we will take our leave as well, Sensei." Hikaru stand from his seat at Yabu's words and bow down before following Yabu's lead outside.
"The time we dread the most had finally come." Hikaru muttered loud enough for Yabu to hear.
"Yeah." Came the short reply from the older boy.
Hikaru sigh. He knows that Yabu took this harder than he did. The older boy had became so fond of Ryosuke's presence, so this information was quite a blow for him. Not that he did not affected, it's just, it affected Yabu more.
"Kota, I know it's hard for you and all, I mean, it's hard for me too, but I know this is harder for you, but still..." He paused as he release a deep sigh. "Please, be strong, okay ? Be strong for Yama-chan."
Hikaru saw Yabu's face hardened as he shut his eyes tight. After some awkward seconds, the older boy finally nodding his head.
"I know, Hikaru. I know."
