LOVE AND SELFISHNESS

PART 18'S

Hearing Mr.'s screams. Nathan from behind the hospital door, Jino's doctor who was at the door of another patient who was chatting with the patient's family, immediately rushed to the room in Yagami's name in the care. Arriving there, he immediately checked Yagami's heartbeat and body.

"Thank God, his body will be fine. It's just that he's going to get a little stiff on the body part, it takes one to three days to stretch his muscles" Dr. Jino told Mr. Jino. Nathan. Yagami just quietly lay on the bed.

"Do you feel any pain in your body?" ask Tn. Nathan grabs Yagami's hand and caresses it. The black haired man simply shook his head.

"You remember me, don't you?" ask again.

And again, Yagami just nodded.

"Doctor, why doesn't he talk?" ask Tn. Nathan turned to see Dr. Jino.

"It's okay, he'll talk soon, it just takes time. Don't force him, he just woke up from a coma" Mr. Nathan smiled and looked at Yagami.

"Kok, can I be in the hospital? Did the doctor say I was in a coma?" ask Yagami who finally asked while trying to sit aided by Mr. Nathan.

"Yes, you've been in a coma for 2 years since you were 15. And now, you're 17 years old" replied Mr. Nathan.

Yagami was only pensive for a moment, he felt that something was missing from him. But he can't remember it well.

***

Four years later, Yagami graduated from Harvard University. There he majored in Economics. At graduation, he was accompanied only by Mr. Nathan, because Misca accompanied Kayo's graduation at the University of Colombia.

The same thing happened with Eric. He graduated from the University of Tokyo with the same degree.

Erika accompanied by her mother eventually returned to Kobe to continue their respective lives.

"Mom, next week, I'll try to put a cover letter into a company" Erika told her mother as she tidied plants outside the yard with her mother.

"Well, I just arrived from Tokyo, son. Istrahat only a few months ago, "reply Naila while pruning ornamental plants to form a green fence with pink hand-hair t-shirts tied.

"It's okay, Mom. People say, the sooner the better."

"As for you, don't be too tired."

"Just calm down, Mom. I'm an adult, hehe," Erika replied grinningly towards her mother. Naila just smiled to see the princess only wayangnya had grown up.

"By the way, that Yagami hasn't told you?" ask Naila.

Instantly, Erika's hand stopped moving.

"Already, Mom. No need to discuss it anymore," Erika replied with a gloomy face. He immediately returned to his room to pick up his phone and opened his chat with Yagami four and a half years ago. He sighed then closed his phone and put it back on his bedside table.

In his heart, Yagami still remained number one to none. Although, he did not know that the one who had always been with him all this time was the fake body of Yagami. But this time, he wanted to forget about Yagami.

"Maybe, it's time I had to let go" he murmured and opened the wallet with a picture of Yagami attached there. The smiling photo was taken with the index finger taken while cleaning at Yagami's house. The house was cleaned every day.

"I have to be excited" she told herself and then moved from her seat to the bathroom.

Ting....

There was a chat coming in from Kise.

Kise: I heard you were in Kobe..

A while later, Erika finished her bath and read the message.

Erika: yes, this time want to take me where else?

Kise : wherever you want 😉

Erika: seriously? 😆

Kise : yes 😁

Erika: I want to go to Sannomiya (a shopping center that is always crowded with famous fashion and find a two-story building)

Kise: all right, ready

A few minutes later, Kise was in front of the house to pick up Erika in her yellow Ferrari. Kise opened the car door for Erika. They also drove on top of a beautiful car with a yellow sparkle luring the eyes.

"I want to buy equipment to apply for work next week," replied Erika in a dress shirt color Salem combined with a knee-length Navi color skirt.

"Apply work? Why not in my company? You don't have to bother applying for a job," Kise replied to Erika.

"No, thank you very much. But, this time I will try with my ability, if I am not accepted, then I will ask for your help. After all, you have always helped me and comforted me" Erika replied.

"Well, if that's what you want, if you're in trouble, just come to me. I'm ready anytime."

"You are my best friend."

"So, you just think of me as a friend? I want more than that" Kise murmured.

Arriving in Sannomiya, Erika immediately went to the dress and shoe store, where she chose a white shirt and black skirt in preparation for a job interview. After that they went to the stationery store to buy some stationery.

"Erika's? So you're back?" said Mika who happened to be there buying stationery immediately ran to hug Erika.

"Geez, I miss you so much" said the hand around Erika's body.

"Yes, I'm the same, too" Erika replied. Kise just smiled looking at the two girls in the cuddle in front of her.

"You came with Kise? Wh why? Jangam says you've already.." whispered Mika. But before finishing her words, Erika's palm had already landed on her mouth.

"Stop, don't think strangely," he replied as he glanced at Kise.

Kise who realized that there would be a lot of things they wanted to talk about, immediately went pretending to go to the toilet.

"I went to the toilet first, yeah, Erika," Kise said.

"Yes, be careful," replied Erika smiling and noticed by Mika.

"Cieee.." god.

"What the hell, cieee.ciee," said Erika.

"You guys are already?"

"No, we're just friends."

"Oh, just accept him. What the hell is less than him, it's tajir, saucy, good anyway."

"But..."

"Don't tell me you're still thinking about that jerk Yagami. Remember, it's been almost 5 years and you're still waiting for him? Just pick a more tangible one that's with you every day."

"But love cannot be measured by togetherness, no matter how long you are together if he doesn't like you, then he can't be forced either" Erika replied seriously.

"I think that's something that can change at any time."

"You're wrong, feelings aren't as easy to change as turning your palm, the more you try to forget them, the stronger the memory becomes. It takes time for it to go away on its own."

"Alright if it wants you, but if he dares to hurt you again, just tell me."

"Thank you, yes, you understand me. You and Kise are best friends."

****

Yagami arrived at Kansai International Airport in a blue jacket with white T-shirts and black pants and sunglasses, accompanied by his bodyguard, carrying a suitcase.

He walked in front of the black car specially ordered by Mr. Nathan arrives in Kobe a week before Yagami. Because, Yagami still has some business on campus.

Yagami sat in the middle seat while watching the city of Kobe along the way. This time something was different from him. He wears black earrings and black bracelets. Of course more makes it more mature than his fake body and more cool.

In the middle of the road, the car he was riding passed by Kise's ferrari car where Erika was in it.
