Hospital
Andrew and Serena were waiting in the hospital room since Seiya had gone to surgery at the time and they were waiting for some news.
-Take a bit to calm down Serena.
-Thanks, but right now I don't want anything.
-Serena don't blame yourself.
- Why did they do it, because they took a risk for me if I'm not worth it?
-Don't say that ever, you more than anyone knows that since we were children I have had a special affection for you as brothers.
-Yes, but him.
"He told me he just doesn't know how he fell in love from that day he saw you."
- Do you really know him?
-Yes, I have had his friendship for five years and I can assure you that he is a great guy.
-You know, Andrew, I'm afraid, but at the same time I feel that being by his side fills me with security, but if he dies I will never forgive myself.
Andrew hugged her and saw the doctor come running towards him.
- Doctor like this? Tell me the truth. -Serena
-The bullet was successfully stolen, but he is still in intensive care, we will keep him for at least 24 more hours. -Doctor
- I can see? -Serena
-Okay, just for a moment. -Doctor
--------
Serena entered and saw him completely sedated and with the oxygen mask, she took his hand and began to cry near him.
-Seiya I know that what I have lived has not been easy, starting with the mistrust I had, I did not trust anyone, in any man, but you arrived, you brought love with you, that love to which I had fled so much. Now I want you to know that you cannot leave me, because I need you more than anything, because I love you, I love you more than anything and I want to share the rest of my life by your side. You have to overcome this so that you accompany me to face My biggest fear, you are everything I want in my life Seiya, you and my son are now what I love the most.
Serena left to see him very distressed and anguished, she just wanted everything to end.
- Do you want me to take you to Seiya's house? -Andrew
-No, but I do want you to go see if my son is okay. -Serena
-He is, send some agents for him. -Andrew
-Thank you so much Andrew.
-It's nothing Serena
Andrew saw Seiya's mother arrive very desperate with Mina, her sister and her father.
-Lords Kou, what are you doing here? -Andrew
-We found out from the news. -Kiro
-I don't understand what my son did in places like those. -Misako
Serena went to sit down, because knowing that Seiya's parents were there hurt her too much.
- What's up Serena? I wanted to introduce you to them. -Andrew
-I don't think it's convenient, you don't see how your mother is when she knows that she was in that place doing who knows what. -Serena
-But if you know what was going to get you out of that place. -Andrew
-If they find out that he is with someone, they will reject me forever. -Serena
- And is that perhaps you consider yourself that way? -Andrew
-I will only tell you that for the simple fact of having spent five years in that world, my life is in chaos and anyone regardless of my opinion will treat me like that. -Serena
-Please Serena. -Andrew
Taiki and Yaten arrived and saw her crying along with Andrew.
-You must be the girl my friend Seiya has gone crazy for. -Yaten
- Who are you? -Serena
-My name is Yaten Kou, I am a distant relative, he is our friend Taiki.
- Nice to meet you, Serena Tsukino.
-Don't cry more please, we've seen Seiya suffer too much. and I know that it will come out of this as of all. -Taiki
-Thanks for being here. -Serena
-Not thanks to you. -Yaten
------------
Andrew went to make a call and left her sitting next to Mina
- What do you mean that Seiya has suffered? -Serena
-Seiya had someone who I love deeply and hurt his heart, he was only 16 years old. -Mina answered
- What happened to him? -Serena
-She was a beautiful girl that he met as soon as he entered his university career, as soon as he declared his love for her, he hurt him too much and that was when he entered a total depression for almost a year.
- Are you serious? -Serena
-After that he was never the same boy as before, he became a bit obnoxious with that of wanting to be equal to our father, but in reality he wanted to be a great musician. -Mine
- Musician? -Serena
-Yes, although to be honest he has been a very good lawyer. Haven't you seen him when he gets angry? -Mina smiled.
- The truth is that, I have very little time to know him and we have only exchanged a few words. -Serena
-But I imagine you like it, don't you? -Mine
-The truth is that I don't know what happens to me when I'm with him. -Serena blushed.
- So if you're his girlfriend? -Mina said smiling.
Serena stared at Mina's attitude very romantic.
Serena decided to leave there when she saw the others who stared at her and the girl followed her.

-Andrew, are you really telling me? -Ikuko
-Yes Mrs. Tsukino, your daughter Serena is safe and sound. -Andrew
-I thank you very much, I feel too happy that we will soon have her in our home, where she should never have left. -Kenji
-That is what we will achieve Mr. Tsukino, I will be calling you to give you more news. -Andrew
-Please don't tell them that we already know everything, I don't want them to feel bad about it. -Kenji.
-Don't worry Sir, I'll do everything to make your daughter feel good until she's back with you. -Andrew

Mina ran until she saw that Serena arrived at the hospital garden.
-Don't run away please.
-I don't know if I'm the right person for your brother.
- But why? If you are very beautiful.
-It is that there are too many things in my life that I regret too much.
-If my brother fixed his gaze on you, it is because he does not care what you have done in the past, believe me I am his sister and I have always made jokes that make him desperate, but likewise, I am still his sweet little sister.
-Everything is different with you, since I'm just a person who barely knows him.
-Please Serena don't cry.
Andrew arrived quickly telling the two that Seiya had awakened and that he requested their presence immediately.
Serena was crying with happiness, the boy looked at her smiling at her and taking her hand.
-Hi beautiful rose.
-Hi my hero, are you okay? Does nothing hurt?
-Don't worry, I just wanted to see you to get better.
Serena just saw him and her tears kept falling down.
-Don't cry, I'm already here with you and we will always be because I love you.
-Seiya I ...- Serena couldn't even articulate that word she wanted.
Seiya kissed her hands and hugged her tightly as she cried into his chest.
"I can't tell you that I love you because I'm still afraid of myself"
-Son it's good that everything is fine-Misako Seiya's mother came in looking at them.
-Father, Mother and Mina, it was not necessary for them to come here, it was just a scratch. -Seiya
-Son don't joke with those things. -Kiro
-Dad is right, our mother almost died knowing that. -Mine
Serena walked away seeing that she didn't have to interrupt them.
- Who was that girl? -Misako
-She is the woman who stole my heart, Mom. -Seiya
-It's very cute, don't you think, Dad? -Mine
-You know that I have never reproached you for anything son, if you love her it is a good thing, since I never saw you happier after Michiru destroyed you. -Kiro
-Thank you Dad, do you know something? -Seiya
- What? -Kiro
-I would like to return to Tokyo to start a new project with your help.
-Of course, if you want, we can return to the United States tonight and you would be there in a couple of months. -Kiro
-No Father, for now I must stay here as soon as I finish an important case. -Seiya
-I don't want you to be in this city anymore. -Kiro
-Please Dad, this is something I must do to help that person. -Seiya pleaded
His father nodded his head and the others simply dedicated themselves to being happy hugging them.
:::: ::::
Days later Serena was always by Seiya's side, helping him in whatever way she could while he was leaving the hospital.
-Serena is all ready for those two damn ones to pay for everything they did to you. -Andrew
-How good Andrew-Serena
- Something wrong?
-It's just knowing that Seiya is happy with his family by his side and that because of me they almost killed him, it hurts me. -Serena said sad.
-How many times have I told you not to think about those things. -Andrew
- Didn't you know that someone broke her heart just like they broke me? -Serena
-Yes, that woman for whom he almost ended his life one day abandoned him for someone who offered him riches when the only thing he offered was love, had decided not to fall in love again. -Andrew
- Are you serious? But why didn't I notice that? -Serena.
-Because from the moment he saw you, he felt his heart beat like when he met Michiru. I never saw him so happy as when he told me he loved you. -Andrew
-But for now I cannot reciprocate his love, I feel that first I must go to recover my dignity and the honor of my family. -Serena
-Serena I don't think it's convenient.
-Andrew, you don't know how I miss them, I also need to feel that I am free from this place that hurt me so much, I ask you to please take me to the airport right now.
::::
At that moment Seiya who had just left the hospital, called Andrew to inform Serena and although the blonde did not want him to find out, he did.
-I think this is the moment of our farewell for now friend Andrew.-Serena sighed
-I hope your parents are happy to see you and that beautiful little boy. -Andrew
-You keep me informed of that case. -Serena
Seiya arrived very hurriedly at the airport knowing that the plane would leave in a few minutes, he looked for her everywhere and even though her injuries hurt, he didn't care.
"Tell Seiya that ..." Serena was interrupted.
- Serena! -The boy was heard in the distance and this made Serena's heart shudder and she went to him hugging him.
- What are you doing here? You are still weak. Serena ran to him.
-I had to stop you from leaving. -Seiya moaned a little while panting.
-I must do it Seiya, my family needs me. -Serena said something sad.
-I know that, but I don't want you to do it without knowing that I love you. -Seiya
Serena looked at him with her eyes full of tears, she walked away from him carrying her son and took the suitcase to enter the boarding area, she did not know how, but she felt the same, but she would not allow them to hurt her again.
But her heart shuddered when she remembered everything she had lived with him, she gave her son to Andrew and ran to where he was, she shouted his name loudly when she saw him sad, he turned to see her hugging him.
-Serena-Seiya was happy.
-Seiya did not want to leave without telling you that I love you, that despite everything I do, I just want you to understand that I have been through so many things that have hurt me too much, can you wait for me just a little time? Serena leaned a little closer to him.
-I would wait for you all my life. -Seiya took her hand and hugged her.
Serena smiled and kissed him so passionately, smiling for having such a loving person by her side.
Seiya handed him a pendant to remind him, they said goodbye with a look of love that they both always had.
