She stares at the figure on the bed. IV connected to his arm, tube on his mouth and an ECG beside him.

Without blinking nor peeling her eyes off. She walked slowly towards him then abruptly stopped in the middle of the room. She kept her gaze. Afraid that if ever the man went out of sight, he might disappear.

"Is he sleeping?" she asked without turning.

"He's...." He looked at him.
"In a coma."

Shuna nodded. It's the only thing she could do.

"The operation just lasted for 10 hours. He was then taken here to recover. We waited for him to wake up. But he didn't. We did further tests and just as we thought." He paused, putting his hand on her shoulder.

She didn't move. She just kept on staring.

"The operation was a success. But his body is too weak. Don't worry, he'll wake up." He continued. This time, he was already looking at her.

"He'll be in his room by tomorrow afternoon. He'll stay here by then. You should go home and take a rest. You look like you need one." He smiled at her then turned on his heels.

Shuna walked towards her father. She leaned in.

"Sleep tight papa. I'll just wait in your room. I love you."

She kissed the top of his head then walked out the door without looking back.

When she got out, Yoshiya's already waiting for her in the hallway.

"I've talked to his doctor. Your father will stay here as long as needed. Money is not an object." He said as he gingerly walk towards her.

Again, Shuna just nodded. Yoshiya placed his hand on the small of her back, guiding her back to her father's private ward. She didn't mind. Her brain's too frail to function properly.

They were greeted by the doctor when they got back in the room.

"I'm staying till he wakes up." She mumbled loudly. Making sure that the doctor heard her.

"Take a rest. He'll be fine. We'll take good care of him. And you'll see him again tomorrow so you don't need to worry." He answered her.

"Yeah. You look like shit. You'll be better if you get a goodnight sleep. Do this little thing for him." Yoshiya cooed.

She kept on staring on the ground, mind in the abyss to notice that Yoshiya already have her things.

"It's for the better. I won't take no for an answer. Now. Go." Doctor pushed her gently out the door with Yoshiya fast on her heels.

"Wow. Doctor kicking you out faster than Eminem rapping." He placed his hand on top of her head. She looks up to him. And for the first time. She smiled at him.

An honest, sweet smile.

She's getting used to the annoying being. It's better having him than nobody.

Yoshiya escorted her back to her apartment. Her pets nowhere in sight.

'She must've taken them with her.'
She thought. Talking about her dear friend and her companions in the house.

She's not used to the quietness and stillness of the room. Her mind wandered to her babies. How they would greet her every time she got back home. How they would jump her and rape her with their kisses.

"Take a long rest shit face. You're losing your glow." Yoshiya's voice brought her back to reality.

She scowled at him then turned her back. Not noticing that he's already briskly walking towards her.

When Yoshiya got near her, he pulled her towards him. Making their bodies slam to each other. A yelp escaped her lips as they collide with each other.

"What do you think you're doing?" She yelled at him while trying to peel her own body from his.

"Helping you relax." He whispered on her ear. He then bit her earlobe.

"No no no no. You're not helping at all." She flailed helplessly in his arms.

Suddenly, he lowered his head to the back of her neck. He started kissing her nape, nibbling on her skin.

"W-wait. No!" She panicked. Trying to get away from him. But it's still no use. He's too strong.

Yoshiya, who's enjoying himself to his victim, went down further. He started kissing the bare skin on her shoulder.

"STOOOOOOP!!" She hollered.

He obliged. Letting her go. She lost her balance, falling down on her knees.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow at 11." He told her while walking away.

When he reached the door he looked back at her.

"Be ready by then." He grinned then closed the door behind him. Leaving her weak and heaving.

Shuna tries to stand up. But her feeble feet failed her. She cursed under her breath. Cursed the man who made her this way. She doesn't love him. She doesn't even like him. But why did her knees went limp when the heat from his body disappeared.

When she got her strength back she sat on her bed, fetched her bag then searched for her phone.

'Funny. No message from her. She must be very busy.'

It's the first time Kiyoshi failed to leave her a message. She never let a day pass by without telling her how much she misses her, or how much she loves her.

Shuna looked out the window, the same time a lovely couple walked by. She noticed how happy they are.

She envy those people who get to be with their love ones. Who get to hold them, touch them, hug them, kiss them, and do everything with them.

She's not complaining about her and her partner's situation. She's just.... Lonely. She misses her.

She sighed to herself. Standing up, she placed her phone on the bed. Maybe the doctor was right. She needed a good rest.

She took a towel from her cabinet then headed towards the bathroom. She'll be enjoying a nice warm bath. Followed by a long sleep.

For tomorrow is another day of worries and fears.
