John POV:
As much as I don't want Kousei to leave Japan and let him stay here and even if I know that the syndicate wouldn't try killing him since he was just one of the kids they kidnapped and used for their illegal sex business and child incarceration, I have to accept my brother's offer to get him back to England now that I my title as a prince was re-instated. I lost my title when I forced myself to marry his mother but it seemed King Ronald had accepted my son. We left Japan three days later and it was on England wherein Kousei received his bone marrow transplant that came from his best friend who was able to see him before we boarded the air ambulance. He's now safe, and he's slowly getting better everyday while he's on my watch but what's evident wasn't his cancer anymore. Seeing him emotionally break down was clear already. I knew as his father that he would need to see psychologists and get him to recieve therapy for it.
Due to the brain surgery that he had received, there were a lot of times that he had kept asking me about his nightmares, too. He dreamed of bears hovering over him and clawing at him or wolves chasing him all night. I couldn't even tell him that those dreams could be remnants of the time he was a sex slave. Currently, my father allowed me to live in one of his huge castles in Scotland while my son's still recovering from his sickness. He's still unaware of the changes and he doesn't seem to actually care for those yet since he was mostly down due to his chemotherapy pills and radiation therapy he receives every week.
My son was always surrounded by a number of nurses, doctors, servants and most especially, security at our new home. Mr. Arima also accepted that it will be better for me and his grandson to go back to my home country since at least, the terrorist group that kidnapped him and made him a sex slave wouldn't reach him.
I didn't like to go back to the public life and being a prince again but I had to do it for my son who was also bestowed to have the title 'Earl' on his name. I was also instructed to give him an English name, soon and he will be a Mountbatten- Windsor just like me, already. It was a good thing that my father that had allowed me to work as a doctor on one of the government hospitals while a different doctor that we had assigned to him checks him everyday.
I have very few appearances on TV as I am mostly cooped up with hospital work where I work publicly already. I'm still an oncologist and in my surprise, if my clients before were Japanese commoners, my clients now were relatives of politicians or the politicians themselves and also, a few commoners themselves but ever since my son had leukemia, I chose to study that disease more to cure children like him. I want to help them and their families as much as I can. I don't get paid like my co- workers as I am already sponsored by the government for my daily life and they're also the ones paying the medical personnel and security at my home.
"It's good that you're back here," Leonard said to me while I'm in my office. "Kousei's getting better everyday and he seemed aware that he's not in Japan now."
"I'm glad that my son's getting better," I replied to him as I organize my table in my office. "I hope he understands that he's an earl now."
"He seemed to have adapted quickly at the castle where you live so far," he said to me. "I saw him smiling with a happy face while having a group video chat with his friends in Japan."
"I'm sure you don't understand what he's saying," I told him as I chuckle. "Do you want to understand Japanese?"
"He can teach me when he's all better," he said to me. "I introduced myself to him when I visited. It was a surprise to me that he can speak in English with our accent, too."
"I speak to him in English and Japanese. He's a bilingual as you see it," I told him. "I left him to tend to himself but I always call to know how he is. It was also how I knew that something wrong happened to him. I knew it immediately when no one answers my calls at home."
"I'm glad that your son's getting better," he said to me. "It was also my joy and our parents' joy that you're moving on, too."
I handed my brother a white envelope.
"You're going back to Japan this week to visit the Royal Family of Japan and Prime Minister Kyōjiro, right?" I asked him. "Could you give my letter to the Japanese Government? They hid our identity for so long. It was also that reason why the White Flag Syndicate became the government's focus since they kidnapped my son."
"Alright," he said to me. "I came to say the same thing."
...
After a very long shift at the hospital, I came back home with two security cars following the sedan that I was driving along. After I had given the keys to my valet, I immediately stepped inside the castle wherein I saw my son wearing a blue long sleeves with a black necktie and black pants. He welcomed me with a smile on his lips.
"You took me here while I was so sick, dad?" he asked me. "I didn't know that I'll be living on your world this fast."
"Did your uncle tell you everything about me?" I asked him while we walk at the long, red carpeted foyer. "I heard he visited you here."
"Yes, dad. He told me everything about you and me. He also told me about what happened to me in Japan and why I have to be here," he answered me. "He told me that you're a prince and now, the King of England, my grandfather on your side, made me an Earl of London."
"You're not angry with me?" I asked him. "I was disowned for years after I married your mother since I was running away that time from my fate but my brother wanted to help you and so, I was able to come back home with you."
Kousei stopped walking at the time we were already in front of his mother's portrait at our new home. "My mother could have been happy for us, dad. I'm mixed race but I'm ready to be an Earl of London here. With the help of the British Government, Japanese Government, and everyone who cares for me, I was able to get away from my old, and dark times."
"I won't let that syndicate ever hurt you ever again, Kousei," I promised him. "I love you so much son!"
