Kondo: Kathryn, can we come in?
Kathryn: .......
Okita: We just want to talk.
Saito: So can we come in please?
Kathryn: Fine......
Kondo: So what's wrong?
Hijikata: Why wont you eat?
Kathryn: I..... I just...... I just can't.
Saito: What do you mean you can't?
Kathryn: Do you know how my mother died?
Kondo: She was sick right?
Kathryn: Yes, she had a incurable disease, and it made it so she couldn't eat. And if she did, she would just throw it back up again.
Okita: So what does that have to do with anything?
Kathryn: I....I....I have the same disease
All boys: What!?
Kathryn: You better not tell Arthur, you hear me?
All boys: Okay!
Kondo: But then do you know.... You know?
Kathryn: No.... For all I know I could die tomorrow.
Kondo: That's to sad. Don't say something like that.
Saito: Well we all hope you don't die tomorrow because we need you.
Okita: Ya, You better not die, you hear me?
Kathryn: No promises.
After that it was easier to talk to Kathryn knowing what she was going through, and is trying to hide it from Arthur to.
Kondo: *sigh*
Arthur: Why do you keep sighing? Is something wrong?
Kondo: What? Nothing's wrong and i'm not sighing.
Arthur: Yes you are, and you only do it when I am in the room, so what is wrong?
As he was about to say what was on his mind he remembered that Kathryn had asked him to not tell.
Kondo: Actually, it's nothing.
Arthur: Why wont you tell me?
Kondo: Because we were told not to.
Arthur: And who told you that?
Kondo: Your sister, Okay she told us not to tell you.
Arthur: What?
Kondo: She told Okita, Hijikata, Saito, and I not to tell you a trial she is going through.
Arthur: Why would she do that?
Kondo: Because she doesn't want to worry you.
Arthur: Did she tell you something important. Is something wrong with her?
Kondo: No...
Arthur: Thats a lie! Tell me!
Kondo: No!
Okita: Kondo' san come quick!
Kondo: Soji, What's wrong?
Okita: Just come quick!
Arthur was left dumb founded and confused.
