Kotori pushed the wheelchair in front then moved his plate closer so that he can reach it.
"How does it feel to be back?" She seated herself and asked.
He answered but his sounded a bit lonely," It feels good, really good. I like this place in all, but I miss mom and dad—I'm glad to see that you well for yourself."
There's were a long paused of silence. She didn't know how to respond without showing her emotions then she spoke with a smile," Mom on vacation with co-workers and father… I can try to reach him. He probably busy at the company."
"Like always-- That would mean a lot, little sis." He speaks before devouring his food.
It's her last day of her term.
" I have to take my final today—I will be back in a few hours." She scooted out her chair and realized the time then rushed out and ran past Kyosuke. "Good morning Mr. Nakamaru."
"What's up with her this morning?" He questioned and one of the servants offered him a fresh cup of coffee.
" Young master."
He accepted.

Hideaki chuckled to himself and remembered when the two were younger and his sister would always be late to grade school up until high school. It amused him that even old habits die hard.
" Some things never change—My little sister is growing up and not little anymore."
Kyosuke walked into the kitchen and reverted his eye towards the guest then sipped his dark coffee.
Hideaki spoke," I'm not buying that nonsense she's saying—You love her don't you? You married her so that mean you love her."
Kyosuke nearly choked on his drink.
'What kind of logic is that? --He sounds ridiculous."
He was just about to talk then Hideaki blurted.
"I'm dying! The doctor says that the cancer progress throughout my body and I have less than a month to live with or without treatment. They caught it so late so it's untreatable."
" I can provide the best medical care but I think you should share this information with Kotori. You are her happiness and I know she will be devastated when she finds out."
"That's exactly why I must keep it a secret from her and you are too."
" I'm not sure that I feel comfortable with that."
The servant interrupted and spoke," Young master, your ride is ready."
" I have important matters to attend to. The servants are here at your disposal just call for them but if it's an emergency call us." He says before heading out the two doors.
Hideaki rotated the wheels with his hands and pushed himself around the villa. He spends the remaining of his time watching videos on his table and learning the functions of it.
"Here's the orange juice you requested." The servant place the glass cup on the nightstand," Do you need anything else, sir?"
He looked at the liquid in the cup and had the sudden urge to pee but was too embarrassed to asked the kind lady.
"No, thanks." He answered.
She walked away.
He wheeled himself to the bathroom and unzipped his pants then used his arms to pull his torso up.
In the hospital his sister and the nurses will always use the urinal bowl.
He lost his balance and fell on the ground hard. His hands were not as strong as he though and weaken. He groaned in enormous pain laying in a puddle of his own urine, desperately crying out for helps.
His phone was sitting on the bed.
"HELP…. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!"
-
Kotori walked through the doors and notice the servant relaxing," Where's my brother?"
"In the room watching something on his device."
She entered her brother room but nobody was there.
" Where did he go?"
She heard a faint voice call for help then dropped everything rushing in those directions and that when her heart dropped down to her stomach witnessing her brother on the bathroom floor.
She kneels down and embrace him as she helped him back up in his wheelchair." It's okay, your sister is here to take care of you."
"Kotori.." He cried.
"It's okay." She comforted him.
She ran the bath for him then scrubbed his back then helped put his pajamas on. "I promise that I will never leave your side again."
She props him in the bed then leaned her head on his shoulder as they watched a movie together.
