Chapter 23
❀⊱┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄⊰❀

"I'm sorry. Did you say an accident? What happened?"

"It would be better for us to speak to you in person."

"Uh, yeah. Okay, I'll be there soon."

Shit. It sounds serious.

Getting up from bed, you switch the channel to the news before throwing on whatever clothes you had lying around.

Three injured in two-car collision is what the headline said.

If it made the news, it must be serious. You slide on some shoes and make your way outside.

Damn, it's really pouring out here.

You run over to your car, unlocking it before getting in. After starting the car, you realize you didn't have enough gas to get to the hospital.

"Shit."

The bus it is then.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

You were able to catch the local bus. It was packed and would take at least thirty minutes before reaching to the hospital. Hopefully the rain wouldn't cause any delays.

You couldn't help but think the worst. All you could do was hope Yūji wasn't injured too badly.

One of your many terrible side effects to your pregnancy was swollen feet. Sometimes it'd be bad to the point where you couldn't stand up for more than a few minutes. Too bad for you there were none available.

After being on your feet got too painful for you, you look around, scanning the cramped bus. You spot a seat with a bag rested on top and try to squeeze your way over there.

"Excuse me?", you say politely to the lady who owned the bag. "Do you mind moving your bag please? I really need a seat."

The lady looked at you in revulsion before continuing to scroll away on her phone, as if you had done something wrong.

"Um, hello? Did you hear me?"

She looked up at you again. It was the kind of look that said 'maybe you should've fucked a guy with a car', before snatching the bag and letting you have the seat.

"Thanks, I guess...", you mumble.

You hadn't taken public transportation since you started driving specifically for reasons like this. It fucking sucks.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

AT THE HOSPITAL

You go to speak to the person at the desk.

"Hi I'm here for Terushima Yūji. I got a call stating he was here."

The man at the desk starts typing on his computer and a couple minutes later tells you where to go.

"He's in room 6-E. Take the elevator at the end of the hall then walk straight down."
