SOMEWHERE, THE THOUSAND SUNNY...

Sanji stand there dumbfound not sure what to say, looking at Zoro taking in deep breath.. The sleepless nights, The incurable disease which even Chopper have no knowledge about, Constant exhaustion, Spitting out blood and more to that, unbelievably dangerous power that taking a tole on Zoro's Body.
The worst part is none of em happens to get any clue of what's going on with Zoro.

"I told you already, i don't know what's causing all this...
It's not like i do all this because i like suffering..!
Even though i hate to, i took you guy's advices...
I rested like a slob, Stopped drinking Sake, Restrained myself from straining my body and tried everything i can to get more sleep...

Nothing works and the nightmares getting worse and more brutal..
I can't talk about it to anyone since it will make things even worse..
What the hell am i supposed to do..?" Zoro says completely exhausted of all the things going on with him,

Sanji can't help but feel bad for Zoro as even though they both were at each other's throats all the time, they don't want any of them go through stuff like this. Zoro just glare at Sanji while Sanji could see the tiredness and helplessness in Zoro's eyes.

Zoro's strength keep getting weaker and weaker as he sat on his bed looking damn tired, his head hurt like hell and his eyes were with dark circles almost dry.He wanted to sleep so bad but the nightmares oh him creating havoc around the world, killing hundreds of innocent people, murdering his own crew, won't let him have his peace while sleep... More to that,
He was afraid of another heartach.

"You must atleast have a clue.." Sanji ask with a quite gesture puffing his cigarette,

"Nothing at all..." Zoro says with a disappointed look,

"You think the heartach and those nightmares have something in common..?" Sanji ask with a concerned look,

"I'm not sure but it doesn't make any sense... Me having a heartach and nightmares of killing you all..?
What's common in that..?" Zoro ask with a curious look,

While they were talking, Chopper got in and asked Sanji to leave so he can check on Zoro's condition...
Sanji obliged and walked out, just to get a disgusted and disappointed glare from Nami. Although Luffy, Ussop and Franky understood Sanji's intention, Nami seems to have hard time forgiving Sanji. Robin have a steady head on this but she still didn't appreciate what Sanji did.

Days have passed and Zoro seems to getting a little better...
He spend all of his time in bed, getting treated and well rested.
Nami insist on doing Guard duty more often indicating her chart work as a reason for staying up nights and she can do the guard duty too.
But the truth is obviously she gets to spend more time with Zoro while they were alone.

On all of her Guard duty period, She sneak into the medical room and sat with Zoro, making sure he doesn't feel lonely. Although Nami refused to give him sake, they share some food, chat for a really long time, talking about their past and stuff.
Zoro get to know more about Nami these past few days and she somewhat didn't act like a spoiled brat like how she usualky do to say the least.
Nami gets to know more about Zoro's past aswell as how he got to the dojo, his friendship and rival with Kuina,
How she is the only one who Zoro never been able to defeat for 2001 times and how he became a Pirate Hunter.

One of Nami's Guard Duty days,
Nami was at the Medical Room whth Zoro, Sitting beside his bed, chatting while he's having his dinner...

"I still can't believe you just gave up Millions of Berries from your Bounty Hunt just for Food and damn Sake..!
That's so stupid.." Nami says with a disappointed look,
