Months later

Ten's POV

I'm going to the hospital to visit Ren. I finally have a free day so I'm going to see her. I asked my old Manager how she's doing and he said she's in terrible condition and says I shouldn't be surprised if she dies soon. It has been a few months. Like about 5 months and I'm surprised she's getting through till now. Sure people have been in a coma longer than that, but those we people I didn't know.

"We're here Ten. You go in, I'm going to tell to the doctor."

"Sure.."

Me and Manager separate at the door and I walk up to the front desk.

"Hello Ten are you hear to see Ren again?"

"Yes, is she in the same room?"

"No she's been  moved to the more severe rooms for patients. She's in Room U777 in the 6th floor. Would you like help getting there?"

"No I'm good thank you." I rush away from the desk and towards the elevator.

I've been visiting Ren every time I got a free day. Everyone's been visiting too, bring gifts and flowers. I enter the elevator alone. The lights dimmed as I stand alone in silence. I got off and saw a little girl crying and holding her farther's hand getting on the same elevator. I stopped moving as I heard the conversation between the two.

"Mommy.. mommy is okay right daddy?"

"Yes Oknari, she'll be fine. I promise..."

My eyes widen. Oknari. Before the elevator could close I step between the doors.

"Your name is Oknari?"

"Yes.." The girls voice was shaky and small. I soften my face and looked gently at her and she immediately relaxed. I look at her wrist and my eyes slightly widened again. Bracelet.

"Do you know a Ren?"

"Umm yeah. In fact I got this bracelet from her," she held out her bracelet, "I got it from her as I promise gift, saying we'll meet each other again. Since than I never took it off."

Promise.

"Would you like to see Ren again?"

"Oh yes! I would love to see Ren again! Is she with you right now?!"

"No, she's sick right now and I'm going to see her. Want to come?"

"Yes!" The girl begins the walk out of the elevator, but I stop her.

"Don't you think you should ask your dad first?"

"Oh yeah! Daddy can we see Ren?"

"If it'll the girl that gave you the bracelet then sure." Oknari jumps in the air and quickly runs pass me and I run to keep up with her.

As we were approaching the room, I talked with Oknari's father.

"Oknari's mother got into a car crash on her way to work and has been knocked unconscious for the pass four days, but the doctor said she'll be okay."

"Are you Oknari's birth father?"

"Yes, but I'm not married to her mother anymore. We got a divorce a few years ago while Oknari was still young."

"Oh I'm sorry to hear that."

"It's okay. We don't hate each other." He chuckles, but I can see the sadness in his eyes. I was going to say something, but decided to keep my mouth shut.

"Daddy, Ten! Hurry up! I found the room!!"

"Okay we're coming!" I break away from her father and run up to the door. I exhale feeling the nervousness.

"What's wrong Ten?"

"Nothing." I smile to the little girl.

"Let's go in then!" She turns the knob and walks in.

The lights were dim and the curtain was in front of us instead of Ren in a bed. I slowly move pass the curtain and see a Ren I know, but don't realize. She's white as snow instead of her tan skin. Her lips were chapped and she was thinner than I last saw her. Machines were everywhere, keeping a check on her heartbeat and what not. Flowers and gifts were everywhere. Some sitting on the window still, others on the ground. Stuff animals where cuddling with Ren in the  bed.

Oknari walks up to Ren's side and looks at her. "Is she okay?" 

"I-I..." I don't know what to say. I don't even know if it's okay to say it's okay. I just stare at her and unconsciously I walk up and take her hands in mine.

"Ren..."

I feel a tug and look down to see Oknari holding out her bracelet.

"Put this on her. We have to keep our promise. If we see each other again, I'd give it back to her. She kept her promise too, saying we'll meet again and we did."

I see tears fall and I start to cry too. With shaking hands I take the bracelet, slip it onto Ren's wrist, and slide it back down into place. I grab a chair to sit down beside her. I see Oknari standing beside me so I decide to put her on my lap.

Ren's POV

I'm done. Why am I doing this? Honestly this is a waste of time...

Time Skip

Ten's POV

I feel a hand shake my shoulder, but I resist.

"Manager I don't want to go yet.."

"Moron wake up I'm not Manager." Before I could register the voice a feel a sudden, familiar pain.

"Owww!" I shot it up and quickly start to rub my cheek to help reduce the sting, but my hands stop and my mouth and eyes widen.

"Idiot how long were you planning to sleep!? My leg was going numb from-"

Before she could continue I kiss and wrap my arms around her.

I continue to press my lips against her's until I feel another slap.

"Moron!" I look at her and she's giving me a death stare. Instead of being scared I hug her again, but I start to cry and bury my face in her neck.

"Ten I swear! Let go and stop being lovey dovey! I'm not your girlfri-" I cut her off.

"Stop yelling. We're in a hospital." I hear her groan and she relaxes as I continue to hug her. Then I realize something.

"I'll go get you something to eat I bet you're starving? What would you like?"

"Ten."

"Also I got to go tell the doctor and Manager that you're awake and"

"TEN!"

"Maybe after you're done and checked we can go back to the company and surpris-"

"CHITTAPHON LEECHAIPORNKUL!"

"What is it?"

"I'm not going back."
