Fight back!-Sequel to It's my life!-Book 2

Chapter 17

"Am I at the hospital?" Kaiyo asked when she woke up. "Yeah. You were brought here when you wouldn't wake up after we found you." Subaru said and Kaiyo tried to sit up. "Stay down. You have a concussion." He said pushing her back down. "I can't just lay here all day. I need something to do." She said and Subaru smiled. "I'll get some books from the library so stay laying down for now." He said and Kaiyo nodded while pouting. "No fun." She mumbled and heard a few giggles. "It seems that you're fine." Maki said and Kaiyo looked at them embarrassed. "Why didn't you tell me they're here?!" She asked and hid underneath her blanket. "You didn't give me a chance." He said smiling. 

"Kaiyo?" Maki called out and Kaiyo glanced at her. "Are you alright?" She asked and Kaiyo smiled. "I'm alright. I'm sorry that I made you go through all that." She said and Maki patted her head. "If anything, I made you go through that. I couldn't help you. I felt so helpless." She said and Kaiyo grabbed the hand. "You helped plenty by being alright." She said and Maki smiled as the others came back in. "We've brought food." Nico said sitting down. "Go to Nico. I'm sure she was worried." Kaiyo whispered and Maki nodded. "Are you hungry?" Eli asked and Kaiyo nodded and was handed a bento. "Your mom made them. She had to go home but said to tell her if you need anything." Nozomi said and Kaiyo nodded again. "Thank you." She mumbled. 

"See you after school tomorrow." Rin said as they left. 

"Excuse me are you Yuuki-san?" An older girl asked walking into the room. "Yes, that's me." Kaiyo said looking up from her book. "Who are you?" She asked. "Oh I'm sorry. I'm Nishi Yuko. I'm your older sister." She said. "Sit down. Don't just stand there." Kaiyo said and the girl nodded and walked closer. "Do you need something?" Kaiyo asked. "Actually, I'm here to warn you." Yuko said getting Kaiyo's full attention. 

"Warn me?" Kaiyo asked and Yuko nodded. "In our family, a disease runs through our veins. There's a chance that you might get it and die from it. You could also survive from it but it really hard to continue doing every day things while you have it." Yuko explained and Kaiyo nodded. "It's your family. Not mine. Even if I get it, It wouldn't change how I live. Please don't concern yourself with me again." She said and Yuko stood up and bowed. "If that's what you want." She said and left. 

"Congratulations on getting discharged!" The girls cheered. "Thank you." Kaiyo said smiling. "How's your hand?" Kotori asked as they celebrated. "It's fine. It's healing fast so they didn't put it in a cast." Kaiyo said looking at her hand. "That's good." Umi said and Kaiyo nodded. "They said that you'll have a scar on your lip. Is that alright?" Hanayo asked and Kaiyo nodded again. "That's alright. Scars don't bother me." She said and drank her juice. "And getting off with just a scar on my lip was lucky." She said and they cleaned up before leaving. "Are you heading home?" Nozomi asked and Kaiyo shrugged. "I might just go on a walk. Want to join?" She asked and Nozomi smiled. "Why not." She said and they started to walk. 

"The stars are so beautiful." Kaiyo said smiling. "They are." Nozomi said smiling also. "I have a question, Nozomi." Kaiyo said and Nozomi hummed. "If I only could be around for two more weeks, what would you do?" She asked and Nozomi looked at her confused. "Considering what has happened, I would give you the best time that you have left here. Why?" She asked and Kaiyo smiled at her. "I'm leaving in two weeks. The university of Tokyo wants me there by the start of next year." She said and Nozomi nodded. "Alright. Let's go." She said grabbing Kaiyo's hand. "Where?" Kaiyo asked and Nozomi looked back at her. "Where else? The others need to know so that we can plan a party." She said and Kaiyo laughed. "What's so funny?" Nozomi asked. "It's just that I didn't expect you to react like that." She said and they called the others and met up at Nozomi's place. 

"So Kaiyo is leaving in two weeks for the university of Tokyo and we need to plan a party." Eli said and Nozomi nodded. "We need to get together a graduation. Just a small one. I'll talk to the headmistress." Eli said and they nodded. "I'll book a karaoke machine." Rin said. "I'll get the cake." Hanayo said. "I can make some sweets." Honoka said. "Are you sure that you want to do this?" Kaiyo asked and everyone looked at her. "Of course. It's your graduation so it has to be special." Umi said and they nodded. "I'll call her parents and make sure they can be here." Maki said and pull out her phone. "Thank you." She said and they smiled. 

"Yuuki Kaiyo, Please come up here to receive your diploma." The headmistress said and Kaiyo walked up to the stage. "Thank you." Kaiyo whispered. "You seem better now than when you first started here in the beginning of the year. Like a weight has been lifted." She said and Kaiyo smiled. "It has." She said and turned around and everyone clapped. "Party time!" A student yelled and everyone laughed. 

"Kaiyo why don't you sing for us?" Eli asked and everyone turned to her. "I'm fine. I don't like to sing." Kaiyo said declining. "Aww. Your voice sounds so cute though." Rin said and Kaiyo smiled. "I can play the piano instead if you'll like." She said and everyone nodded so Kaiyo walked up to the stage to the piano. "I haven't played in a long time so it might not be good." She said and everyone looked up at her. "It's alright just play." Eli said and Kaiyo nodded and sat down. 

"I'm sorry if it wasn't good." Kaiyo said and everyone clapped. "That was amazing!" Some of the girls said and Kaiyo smiled. "Thank you." She said and bowed. 

"Make sure to stay in contact with us. We won't forgive you if you don't answer." Honoka said and Kaiyo nodded and smiled. "Alright I'll call when I get there and unpack. Thank you for taking care of me the past nine months." She said and got into the car. "We'll come visit some time." Eli said and Kaiyo nodded and they drove off.
