Ai's Pov

Couple of months has passed and I was already at eight months in my pregnancy. I had went to the doctors and they asked me if I wanted to know the sex of the baby, but I decided to keep it as a surprise.

Amaya wasn't just someone who was taking care of me for the time being. She was family. She had grew into my heart and she was like my older sister. She had this motherly feel to her too.

During these months of my pregnancy was hard. I had really bad backaches since my belly was really heavy. For me being a small girl, it was hard.

I sat in the chair in my room looking out the window where the sun shined. It was really beautiful outside. I wanted to go on a walk, but I was too lazy and tired to go anywhere or even move.

I wondered how my parents were doing. Even Ayami and Haru. Even the guy who I left. I soon felt a pain in my chest and I wanted to cry. I missed everyone. I had to isolate myself from the people most important to me. I wanted to be with them.

I soon heard my phone vibrate on my desk. I reached over to grab it and I saw that Akashi had texted me. It felt like my heart stopped for a moment. I quickly opened the message.

Akashi: How are you?

Horrible. I miss you so much and I want to be with you. I want us to be a happy family.

Me: I'm doing fine, how about you?

Akashi: Me and Suki are getting married after we graduate high school.

Me: Oh.. Two years later?

Akashi: It's just an arranged marriage. We don't have to get married quickly.

Me: But how is it with you and Ai? Any sign of her?

Akashi: Nothing.

Me: What would you do if she came back?

Akashi: ..I would hug her, embrace her, tell her how much I had missed her.

Me: I think she misses you too.

Akashi: Why.. Did she leave me?

Me: I am sorry, Akashi. I cannot answer your question.

Me: I need to go, Akashi. I'll text you later if I can. Goodbye.

I held my phone close to my chest and cried silently. Every time I closed my eyes and thought about our memories together, I cried silently to myself.

It's so sad.

That you don't even know that I am with you right now, but you just don't realize.

Even when I am gone, you still yearn for me.

Don't you hate me for giving you all this pain?

Please hate me, so that I can leave.

So that I can forget you.

So that I can move on.

Please.

I love you..

"Ai?"

I heard a knock at the door. It was Amaya. "Are you okay?" She asked. I quickly wiped my tears away and walked over to the door. I slowly turned the door knob. Amaya's eyes widened as she saw my face.

"You were crying again weren't you?" She brought me into a hug that can only be shared between family.

I hugged back and sobbed. "He texted me again.. It hurts.." I mumbled as tears fell down my cheeks.

I soon felt strong cramps and my back was hurting like crazy. I put my hands onto my belly and I stood still hunched over as Amaya was starting to get worried.

Soon, I felt water gushing down my legs. "Amaya!" I called. This was a bad time. "My water broke!" Amaya quickly rushed to my side and she was panicking.

She quickly tried to get me into her car. I was panting and trying to breath along the ride to the hospital. The contractions were very strong and I was in so much pain. I didn't even know what to do at this point.

I was going to give birth.

I felt so worried.

Is the baby okay?

***

Amaya parked the car and got out of the car as fast as she could. She opened the door for me and helped me out of the car. We went into the hospital as fast as she could.

"We need a doctor! She's going to give birth!" Amaya yelled and the nurse helped me into a wheel chair and rushed me into the delivery room.

The nurses hooked me up to different wires and I was sweating. I just wanted this child to be out of me. It hurt like hell!

The doctor gave me a shot in my back so it was all numb down there. It eased the pain. Amaya was outside in the waiting room waiting anxiously.

"On the count of ten, push okay?" The doctor said. I gave a slight nod.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Push!"

I gave my hardest push.

This process continued until my child was almost out of me.

I gave my final push and I heard my baby cry. "It's a boy! Congratulations!" Everyone congratulated me. I started to cry as they put my baby on my chest. I smiled, "You look just like him.."

He had his red hair and he had my eyes.

"What's his name?" A nurse asked me as she stood next to me.

I smiled, "Shoichi."

"Aww, that is a beautiful name." The nurse walked out and so did everyone. Amaya could finally come in.

"Ai!" She ran over to me and the baby. She took a full inspection of him and smiled. "He's so cute! Can I hold him?" I nodded and she brought him into her arms.

He was asleep and was adorable. It was silent in the room as Amaya kept staring at Shoichi.

"I wish he could be here.." I said.

Amaya stared at me with pitiful eyes. "Ai..."

Amaya walked over to me and handed Shoichi back to me. I kept on staring at him and touched his red hair.

You are just like him...

Everything...
