Chapter 54 - Numbered Days

18 th DECEMBER 2012

LATE NIGHT

Rina cant get herself to sleep that night because she slept all day long earlier because of her heart problem earlier.The doctor had to inject pain kill shots in order to ease the pain that she quickly fell asleep.She was wide awake and Shinn went home that night to settle some stuff.She quickly put on her cardigan and slowly opened the door.She took a peek at the dim hallway and saw several nurses at the reception table.She slowly tip toed and opened the next door’s door and quickly got inside.

Rina : that was scary (sigh)
Kazuya : You cant sleep,again?(laughing)

Rina quickly turned around to see Kazuya sitting at the windows with a book in his hand.

Rina : How did you know?
Kazuya :You had been doing that since weeks ago  (laughing)

Rina slowly walk towards Kazuya and sat infront of him.

Rina : I am so bored.Months being here had been so long indeed.
Kazuya : Too long, indeed.

Rina,at first didn’t know that she could get really really comfortable with Kazuya,she just met him about a month ago but Kazuya had the charm to make everyone around him feel comfortable around him.And Rina instantly feel really at ease whenever she talks to Kazuya.She had been sneaking into Kazuya’s room whenever she cant sleep and Kazuya would always accompany her with stories about the books he is reading or maybe tell her about his experience being a doctor.And sometimes,about the loves of his life.

Rina : I don’t even know why I am so comfortable around you..wait I think I have told you that countless times (laughing)
Kazuya : I am so glad to hear that.(laughing)

Rina : What are you reading tonight?
Kazuya : Mika brought this along this morning,a book by Murakami (showing her the novel)
Rina : Norwegian Wood!(looking at the cover)
Kazuya : I guess my girlfriend shared the same interest with you Akizuki-san.
Rina : Wahhh,I reall really want to meet your girlfriend.

Kazuya : Eh,she was here this morning and also when we walked back together from the park that day.
Rina : I didn’t see her…
Kazuya :She was there with me Akizuki-san(laughing).
Rina : Will she come again tomorrow!?

Kazuya : everyday .
Rina : I am so happy now.I cant believe I have never bumped into her. (facepalm)
Kazuya : So,what happened to you.Why are you not asleep at this time?
Rina : I slept the whole day after the doctor gave me shots of painkiller.I hate when they do that but oh well like you said….
Kazuya : (laughing)
Rina : Advice taken Doctor.
Kazuya : No wonder…
Rina : Why are you not asleep tonight?Still counting the stars?(laughing)

Kazuya : Considering my days are numbers,sleeping is not even a priority.

Rina’s face  expression changed and she quickly look at Kazuya.

Rina : Numbered days..indeed.

Kazuya : You know when you realized your days are numbered,you feel like you need to do everything all at once,and you don’t even care to sleep.You wont even feel sleepy at all.I mean if the doctors didn’t give you any pain killer or something (laughing)

Rina : You are right Kazuya...you are always right….let me ask you something..
Kazuya : yes?
Rina : If you are given one last day to do something,what would it be?I mean if you know the days that are numbered for you and you have only one last chance to do something
Kazuya :….(thinking)
Rina : take your time.

Kazuya : I would want to make everyone happy….everyone.
Rina : …..
Kazuya : what about you?
Rina : ……
Kazuya : (looking at rina)

Rina : If,If..I still have time I would want to find my sister.
Kazuya : Your sister?
Rina : Yes,my long lost sister.I really miss her.You know the one I told you about.
Kazuya : The one who has the same name as my girlfriend?
Rina : You seldom talk about your girlfriend though (laughing)

Kazuya : You will find her one day.Maybe you did but fate are still playing though.I find this fate game really funny.Dont you think.

Rina : Fate is something unexpected Kazuya-san.That is why we always take everything for granted.
Kazuya : (laughing) Indeed.

19 th December 2012

Mika stood infront of the vending machine and stare at the screen.She had been staring,doing nothing for almost a while.


Mika : (staring at the drinks)

Shinn was walking behind her and suddenly he stopped.He look at the girl staring at the vending machine and thought he recognized her but he quickly continued walking.

Mika pressed the button for the green tea and when she got the drink she quickly turned around.

Shinn was still watching her from a far and saw her face.Because since he got out from the lift,he saw Mika not moving an inch at all from the vending machine.

Shinn : I  have met this girl somewhere..

Mika quickly walked out of the drinks section at the hospital’s café and walked towards the waiting section.She took a seat and stare at the empty seats.It was quite late at night and not many people are they in the area.

Shinn realized Mika whom are sitting alone at the couch but he ignored it at first and proceed on buying the drink Rina requested earlier.

Shinn : Since when does she drinks Coffee.(pushing the coffee button)

Rina never even like drinking coffee but all of a sudden,that night she asked Shinn to get her some coffee and she said she wanted the one from the vending machine.Shinn said nothing when she asked that.Shinn looked at his watch to check on the time

Shinn : It’s almost 9 now.No wonder the hospital is getting emptier.

WAITING AREA

Mika stared at her watch,doing nothing because she was having trouble accepting the fact that Kazuya would be leaving her soon.She knew Kazuya cant make it ,but deep inside she really want to believe Kazuya would live no matter what

Mika : I cant do this....(sigh)

Shinn was about to leave but his eyes caught Mika sitting alone at the waiting area,he stopped and took a glance.

Shinn : What is she doing there..alone?

Mika then quickly stood up and she saw Shinn looking at her.

Shin quickly bows .

Mika : *bowed.
Shinn : Good Evening.
Mika :….. Good Evening.
Shinn : Im sorry if you feel weird about me asking this but are you alright?

Mika ran her fingers through her shoulder length  hair and look at the blonde haired guy standing fewsteps of her.She took a quick look at the guy before realizing that she was spacing out.

Shinn : ???

Mika : (sigh)

Mika quickly shook her head and look up.

Mika : No,nothing is wrong.Excuse me (bowing)

Mika then quickly walked towards the lift and went straight to Kazuya’s room.Leaving Shinn  there without saying anything at all.Her mind was in a mess that she cant think of anyting that time as if something is troubling that night.


Shinn didn’t say anything as he eyed Mika walking pass him.
