Days had passed since the day Tsukiko broke down right infront of Kasumi and Takao . Within those days , Tsukiko just locked herself up in the lab , rarely seen outside from it , be it the cafeteria or the lounge .
" How's Tsuki-chan ? " asked Takao
" not good . She's been locking herself in that lab ." said Kasumi
" did she eat properly ? " said Takao
" she never miss any meals . It just .. she didn't talk like she used to" said Kasumi
" sigh ... Shin-chan is much or more or less the same " said Takao
Midorima was no different either . He prefer to attend the patient or being left alone in the office instead of going to the lounge during breaks like he used to .
" They are avoiding each other " said Kasumi
" We need to do something . Days without Tsukiko and Shin-chan around is .. empty" whine Takao
" but what can we do ? " asked Kasumi
Why is it so hard for them to face each other ? Why is it one of them always run away when they are just getting along just fine ? Both Takao and Kasumi could never understand this
Just when both Kasumi and Takao was busy thinking of a solution a familiar voice greeted them.
" Kasumi ?" it was Tsukiko
" Tsukiko ?! What's up ? It's been so long since you last came to the lounge" said Kasumi
" soka ... I was looking for though" said Tsukiko . Her voice was weak and and her face was pale. one could tell that she wasn't really feeling that good
" looking for Kasumi ? for what ? " asked Takao
" I don't think Im feeling very well ..so I think I'll go home now" said Tsukiko
" eh ? you sure you okay ? Should I give you a ride ?" offered Takao
" no. Im fine . You are already busy with your duty . Dont bother about me " said Tsukiko
" but ..Tsukiko .. " Kasumi wanted to protest
" I'll fine .. " said Tsukiko with a faint smile before leaving
" sigh .. why is she so stubborn ?" said Kasumi

Tsukiko was at home at least after what she called it a horrible walk . Her head hurts . She thinks that she might have come down with a fever .
" really .. I just got a fever not long ago ... " sigh Tsukiko as she search the house for a certain chinese medicine
" where could it be ? " thought Tsukiko
It was not that long after that she realized they have run out of that effective chinese medicine .
" sigh .. maybe I should call Kasumi and ask her to buy it for me"
When she wanted to dial Kasumi's number , her cellphone suddenly blank out . - out of battery
" out of all time ..you decided to died out on me now ? " said Tsukiko frustratingly towards her cellphone
___________________________________
Its already late at night when Kasumi returned home
" Tadaima ~ Tsukiko , I baught you dinner . You better eat them " said Kasumi
She was just greeted with silence
" Tsukiko ? " alarmed with the silence , Kasumi checked the whole house only to realize , Tsukiko was nowhere to be seen

Meanwhile at the hospital , Takao were in Midorima's office
" ne .. Shin-chan .. "
" If you had nothing to do .. I suggest you go home and rest" said Midorima
" oh come on now .. Im here to spend time with my best friend " said Takao
" ... "
" anyway Shin-chan , why are you fighting with Tsukiko ? " said Takao
" none of your business and we're not fighting "
" Of course it's my business ! not fighting ? are you kidding me ? How do you expect me to believe that when all you do is exactly what I said to be ? " said Takao
" It's the best for both of us. "
" are you sure though ? Is it the best ? " said Takao
" It's better for me to just... forget about her and let her go "
" so you're telling me you dont care for her anymore ?"
"...."
Suddenly , Takao's cellphone rang .
" moshi moshi .. Takao speaking " said Takao as he picks up the phone
His eyes were wide when he heard the other person talks on the other side of the phone .
" Don't worry Kasumi . I will be there as soon as possible " said Takao as he hung up
" What's wrong .. " Midorima didn't manage to finish his line when Takao cut him off
" Tsuki-chan is missing "
The end ( to be continued )
