"Hey, besties! It's your girl, Author-Chan, sliding back in with another banger of a story! 🎉
This time, we're diving into the epic world of Akira Akatsuki-aka Akira Yukimura-a bold and spirited Japanese queen.
The vibe? Friendship, fast cars, and...
I hung out with Brian, Mia, and Dom until I felt better in the head and in my heart. Mia and Brian took off to a safer spot. It was just me and Dom at my old place. 1327.
After getting myself together, I went to the kitchen and popped my tablets.

"Are those antidepressants?" Dom asked, sneaking up behind me. "God, Dom!! You scared the shit out of me," I exclaimed, clutching my chest.
"No, they're contraceptives," I replied warily, and we headed to meet Luke. "Did that bastard do it raw?" Dom asked angrily, and I awkwardly nodded.
At the hospital where Luke was admitted, Elena welcomed us. "Elle," I called. "Yuri, how are you?" she asked, and we hugged. "Better," I replied as she led us to Luke.
"Shattered collarbone, fractured leg in two places. He only woke up this morning. First thing he said was, 'Get me Dom. And Yuri too. He's in there,' " She informed us.
"Are you okay?" Dom asked. "I'm fine," she replied. "Stop, can't you see you're bothering her?" I interfered. "He's waiting. Let's go," Elena said, leading us into a private room.
"Got something for you. Your files," she said, handing Luke his documents. "Thank you," he replied.
"You risk life and limb to save the free world, and what do they give you? Jell-O and a bad '70s TV show," Dom quipped amused.
"You know, it's got its perks. Sponge baths ain't that bad," said Luke. "Dad!" exclaimed Sam. "Sammy!!" I called, and she hugged me as I picked her up.
"Whoa, look at how tall you've grown," I remarked. "Where have you been for the past year?" She asked. "I had things to do back home," I explained, and she got down.
"Dad?" Dom asked puzzled. "Honey, I want to introduce you to somebody. He's an old friend. Go on and say hello," said Luke gesturing toward Dom, and she turned towards him.
"Dominic Toretto, right? My dad said he kicked your ass once!!" She said cheekily, and I chuckled. "Ha Ha Luke... what are you teaching your daughter?" I asked, amused.
"Young lady, watch your mouth," Hobbs warned. "Your dad's on heavy pain meds. I can understand if his history is a little hazy," Dom added.
"I doubt that," She retorted. "Honey, that's enough. I want you to go get something to eat with Elena while me and Toretto have a talk. You hear me?" Luke instructed, and she nodded.
"Come on, lady. Let's get some cookies," Elena said, leading her away. "Lukeeee," I sang, hugging him—or more like sprawling on him, causing him to grunt.
"Gently," Luke requested. "Oh, shut up. Don't be such a baby," I teased, settling on the chair next to his bed. "Who did this?" Dom asked, concern in his eyes. Luke glanced at me surprised.
