“ You can’t be serious!!!”
“I am..”
“but you guys don’t look like you know each other..”
“Well yea.. I just saw him pass by seven years ago.. but I clearly heard him say about him being saki's father”
“I see.. but… does she knows about it?”
“I don’t know. Most probably no.. because it might be possible that he had been hiding his identity from her. Saki really doesn’t know about him… it was seven years ago.. see its reasonable. Ishiuchi's daughter is in need of a heart transplant. And that’s why he offers his loyalty to the hospital for her.”
“hmm that’s true. But then don’t you think he is behind all this?”
“Nope. A big group like Tokitsu group can’t be run by him alone. He is just a cog in a big machine..”
“you mean there are other people ?”
“Yes and he is just helping them because of her daughter.. that will make him work with us..”
“What do you mean???”
“What do you think is most important to Ishiuchi??”
“umm…you don’t mean!!”
“Yes ofcourse … Saki…”
“Yeaa.. “
“So that means he wouldn’t care less about the hospital if saki is better.”
“If we go and say that Nishikata hospital is selling organs illegally, they’ll just crush us. That’s how influencing these guys are. But ,if we say that Saki Koukawa is going to receive an illegal transplant.. then? It would be fine for hospital..but not for Ishiuchi.. “
“So Riku.. you are using Saki to threaten him?”
“yes ofcourse.. we won’t be actually doing it ..but it’s just a measure to make him co-operate with us..”
Haruto looked worried..
“Haruto.. you don’t like it?”
“You aren’t going to tell saki.. “
“no way. It would only make things worse…”
“Yea, I agree with that..”
“Yep.. let’s go talk to him tomorrow..”
“ yea.. this is really becoming a mess.. “As riku and Haruto talked about it. The door was slightly opened. They were unaware but there was someone listening to them since the beginning.. she stood there right in front of the door. She didn’t utter a word.. Saki heard whatever she could and went away. That night.. Haruto talked with Riku about the past and How Saki was always concerned about everyone. And how she and Honaka were the closest of all.
The next day..
31 March , WednesdayHaruto and Riku headed up straight towards mr Ishiuchi’s cabin. Saki stood there watching them. She couldn’t think of what to do. She visited Honaka’s room. She wanted someone to be with her. The pain that she had. She wanted to share it with Honaka. But hinaka slept because of the medicine. She left that place and decided to follow them. As they got inside a room, saki went close to the door. It was slightly left ajar. She started listening to what they were discussing..She heard Riku shouting..
“---- is that what you want??”
“Look here. I have been listening to you guys. And I know that you guys can’t do anything”
“ohh really? Then what if we say that we know that you are Saki’s father..”
Ishiuchi was shocked.
“ i-I don’t know who you guys are talking about.”
“don’t play dumb. I’ve heard you saying that!!!”
“Even if it is.. what then? You guys still can’t do anything.. we are in the same boat.”
“That’s why I’m telling you to work with us.. we can find her donor too!!”
“Ohh so you guys are threatening me huh? Like I care? Nothin would change the fact. She doesn’t even know that I’m his father. Nothing would change.. “
“IT WILL!!!” Riku shouted..
“I will tell saki everything about you and the hospital.. I’ll reveal everything to her. Do you know what would happen?? She eventually give up on surgery!!”
“What!! You can’t be serious. What are you even gonna gain?”
“listen here. She would give up her surgery and she will die soon. You know that as well…”
“You guys can’t DO THIS!!!after all I waited so long for this to happen.. so many years.. and now that I’m so close… no way.. you can’t!”
“Wait , what do you mean so close?”
“yes her surgery has been decided.. “
“ What??? It can’t be Kakeru!!! My brother’s life is on the line here..”
“everything is about your brother huh? Don’t worry.. it’s not him.. “
“Then??.. wait a sec..!! Are you kidding me!!!!!”
“Yes that’s exactly what you think.. “
“Honaka!!!”
Haruto was astonished as well.
“yes she herself told that when she would die , she wanted to give her heart to Saki.”
“ So you mean???..Honaka knew all this????
