#131 She's Gone Again

"Let go of her!" Kenji repeated a sharp but not overly loud shout, but it was too late.His first outburst had already drawn the attention of everyone in the lobby. Even after hearing the commotion, the security guards appeared to be approaching. But they just watched."Do you want to lose your hand?!" Kenji hissed as he stepped closer.Mori could sense the danger, so he slowly let go of Akiko's hand. But his eyes stayed fixed on Kenji. He had a decent amount of courage."We're going home," Kenji said, grabbing Akiko's hand.However, Mori blocked his path with his body. His instinct to protect was strong. He couldn’t let Kenji take Akiko away. Kenji’s actions would only fuel the rumors that were already circulating. The two of them leaving together would seem to confirm the gossip. Mori quickly thought of a reason to stop Kenji from taking Akiko."You can't just take her like that. Akiko is an employee here. There ar

#132 You Can Run, But I'll Find You

Akiko jumped on the first bus that stopped at the stop without even looking at its destination. After paying, she sat inside, wondering how long she would ride. She didn’t care; she just wanted to disappear and forget everything.From the start, what she wanted was impossible. As expected, it all ended in mockery, which she deserved.When she chose to love Kenji, her morality was questionable."Ojou-san*, excuse me. But this is the last stop." Akiko was startled as the bus driver approached her and bowed, apologizing for disturbing her."Oh, yes. Sorry." Akiko quickly stood up and bowed in return, apologizing because her presence had caused the driver some trouble."I apologize again," Akiko said as she reached the door of the bus and stepped off.She looked around. Akiko had never been to this place before, but she easily found clues. There was a large, modern building made almost entirely of glass with the name JR Shinju

#133 Something Really Wrong

“I’ve found her.” Kenji only managed to contact Ryu once he arrived at the ER.While in the ambulance, Kenji was busy listing all of Akiko’s symptoms before she passed out. Every single one of them—vomiting and falling more often than usual.“Thank goodness,” Ryu said, sounding relieved too.“Are you going to take her to Tokyo?” Ryu asked.“Not yet. I’m still at the hospital.”“Oh, how is she?” Ryu had forgotten why Kenji was so desperate to find Akiko quickly.“I don’t know yet, but I have a terrible feeling.” Kenji wasn't able to sit still the entire time.“She’s probably just tired. Don’t worry too much; you’re always unreasonable when it comes to Akiko.” Ryu, of course, blamed Kenji’s possessiveness, which could sometimes be excessive.“Tired? You should know her workload hasn&rsquo

#134 Bad News and Really Bad News

As soon as Hayashi contacted the hospital, Akiko was transferred to the ward. Since he emphasized that Akiko was his patient, no one dared to touch Akiko’s test results before he arrived.As a senior doctor, Hayashi's name was enough to command respect, and the doctors at the hospital chose to wait for him. Therefore, Kenji didn’t complain when he had to wait in the ward for quite some time to hear the diagnosis.But the anxiety was almost driving him crazy. And it didn't help that his phone was vibrating non-stop.Kenji couldn’t turn off the phone because he was waiting for news from Ryu. He also couldn’t block the number calling him because it was Kyoko. Kenji didn’t save her number, but he recognized it as the one that called him earlier to describe the situation at Shingi Fusaya that morning.Kenji wasn’t afraid of Kyoko’s anger, but he didn’t want Kyoko to report to Akiko, which would ultimately lead to

#135 Alone Isn't Fun

Akiko's mouth tasted bitter, probably from fear. The apprehension stemmed from the unfamiliar surroundings.But the fear was brief. No matter how strange the place was, Akiko no longer cared. That was because Kenji was there, now lying face down, seemingly asleep, close to her hand.Her hand had likely just slipped out of Kenji’s grasp, as their hands were still close together. Wherever Kenji was, it couldn't possibly be unsafe.However, the smile on Akiko’s lips turned bitter. She didn’t know why they were in the hospital, but she still remembered why they were in this very unfamiliar hospital. Akiko still remembers everything that happened at Shingi Fusaya.Akiko closed her eyes. Of course, she wanted to cry. But she took a few deep breaths to hold back the tears. She was exhausted from crying. And she shouldn't cry over her own choices.Akiko lifted her hand and gently touched a strand of Kenji’s hair. It was just a light

#136 I'll Be Back

"My hair... they’ll make me bald!" Akiko complained about the thing she hated most before. She endured the agony of waiting for her hair to grow, constantly confronting her bald head. Attending the summer festival without hair was dreadful."Oh... ha... ha..." Kenji might have lived under too much tension for too long, so what Akiko said ended up making him laugh. Something so trivial and completely unexpected.Kenji also felt relieved, because at least Akiko's worries had shifted. Akiko's fear about her appearance becoming ugly was certainly more manageable than her fear and hopelessness."Are you laughing at me?! You're imagining me bald and laughing?!" Akiko pushed Kenji and wiped away her tears of frustration. This kind of anger wouldn’t make Akiko cry, of course."I'm not laughing at that. I’m laughing at the absurd idea that you could ever be ugly. You will never be ugly, even without hair." Kenji quickly explained what his laughte

#137 I'll Fight You

Minute by minute, Kenji’s time spent outside the operating room felt like a nightmare—a terrible nightmare. Kenji had never felt this desperate before. He had to endure it for nearly three hours. In addition to the weight of all the risks, Kenji's attention was now fixed on the biopsy results. Hayashi mentioned this possibility yesterday. This is the worst possible outcome for Akiko's condition.Kenji slumped into the chair, closing his eyes, trying with all his might to follow Hayashi's advice not to overthink it.Hayashi had even laid out a very detailed treatment plan this morning to assure Kenji that, whatever the outcome, it didn’t mean a dead end. But Kenji didn’t want to let that possibility enter his mind. The treatment might offer a chance of recovery, but only a chance—not a certainty. That uncertainty planted an ever-growing darkness in Kenji’s mind, rooting deeply.*DRTT!*Kenji jerked as his phone vibrated and immedi

#138 She's Sick Again

"Do you really want to commit a massacre out in the open?" Masaki shouted, and Kenji finally lowered the katana in his hand.He was a little disappointed that no blood had been spilled. He could kill, but not in front of so many witnesses. A rule that Kenji found bothersome.As Masaki was pushed closer to him, Kenji bowed and glanced at the unfamiliar face behind his father. He might be significantly older than Masaki. However, he appeared more robust and healthy.Kenji was a bit puzzled. If his father wanted to replace Matsuda, he should have picked someone younger, not someone as old as this. Kenji wasn't convinced that this man could lift his father in an emergency.But now wasn’t the time to question Masaki's decision. The veins around Masaki’s neck bulged as he held back his anger."Are you trying to fight me again?! Do you care more about that boy than my words?!" Masaki snapped."I've followed your words," Kenji replied po

#139 Give Me Time

"Then obey. I've allowed you to do as you please all this time."Masaki looked at Kenji, who was bowing before him, shaking his head. He had watched Kenji grow, and of course, he knew that Kenji rarely begged anyone for anything.Seeing Kenji bowing always surprised him. This was the second time Masaki had seen Kenji in such a position. And for the same reason—that weak girl."I will obey and follow your orders—whatever you want. But not with Akiko," Kenji said, pressing his forehead to the ground. Masaki sighed and shook his head. He couldn’t understand why Kenji was so stubborn."Get up," Masaki ordered. Kenji raised himself, but he remained kneeling."You make me seem like a villain when everything I've done has been to protect you, not to be cruel to you," Masaki said, resting his head on his hand while watching Kenji, who was now staring at the grass."Can't you want something else? She’s just a woman. There are

#140 The Culprit

But Kenji's burden gradually lessened as he saw a smile spread across Hayashi's lips.“It worked. Everything was successfully retrieved. And Akiko's condition is very stable,” Hayashi said, giving a thumbs-up.Kenji let out a sigh of relief, but he knew his relief was premature.“How…”“I’ve requested that the biopsy be done as soon as possible, but it will still take at least a day. Be patient. Stay with Akiko when she wakes up. Huh, what happened to your face?” Hayashi inquired, noting Kenji's bruised and battered face.“Something happened, but it's over now,” Kenji responded vaguely. He might hear the full story later about the earlier commotion, but Kenji wasn’t too concerned. Kuryugumi usually had a team to clean up any public disturbances.Hayashi squinted at Kenji's face before patting his shoulder. “Take care of those wounds. But I must go. I’m not as youn
