*at midnight*

Sukeri: *burst through the front doors and to the office* What? What's going on? Why'd you call me?

Nurse: Are you Sukeri?

Sukeri: Yes, yes now what's going on?

Nurse: Well Sukeri we...

Sukeri: Why'd you call me? What's wrong? Where's Hiro?

Nurse: He's still in is room.

Sukeri: What happened?

Nurse: We're having problems with your brother's breathing and so far it's not looking good.

Sukeri: What do you mean?

...

Nurse: ...He's dying Sukeri.

Sukeri: ... *runs to Hiro's room*

Sukeri: Hiroaki?

Hiroaki: ...

Sukeri: Hiroaki?

Hiroaki: *looks over*

Sukeri: Oh thank you!

Hiroaki: Sukeri? Is that you?

Sukeri: Yeah who else would it be?

Hiroaki: Sorry it's really dark...little hard to see.

Sukeri: Sure is.

Hiroaki: What are you doing here?

Sukeri: They called me.

Hiroaki: ...

Sukeri: They said your breathing isn't very good...they said you're dying! *falls on her knees next to the bed* *grabs his hand* But they're wrong...right?

Hiroaki: ...

Sukeri: ...

Hiroaki: ...It hurts...

Sukeri: ?

Hiroaki: It feels like there are a bunch of sand bags on me.

Sukeri: ...

Hiroaki: So I try to not breathe as often but it doesn't help...

Sukeri: Hiro?

Hiroaki: Sorry Sukeri.

Sukeri: It's not your fault bro.

Hiroaki: I'm sorry...for being...weak.

Sukeri: What does that mean?

Hiroaki: It's just that I felt like I needed to say that...I wanted to apologize for it.

Sukeri: You don't need to Hiroaki...it's a natural thing that people feel.

Hiroaki: Yeah but I was never really the...brave kind.

Sukeri: You're plenty brave.

Hiroaki: ...

Sukeri: You kept us alive for a long time just as much as I did and you've made a lot of people happy.

Hiroaki: ...

Sukeri: I guess that's what your name means.

Hiroaki: Thanks...that helps...

Sukeri: :3

Hiroaki: But even those things can't help me now...I probably should have tried to get a better immunity system...that's what's failing...along with everything else.

Sukeri: What?

Hiroaki: Sis...it's not going to work...it's too hard to fight it and it's not getting any easier it's only getting worse.

Sukeri: No don't say that.

Hiroaki: That's what I'm sorry for...I can't keep going on like this everything is falling apart.

Sukeri: No.

Hiroaki: But you have to promise me one thing.

Sukeri: What?

Hiroaki: If I die...you won't hurt yourself because of it.

Sukeri: ...

Hiroaki: If you died because of me I would never be able to forgive myself.

Sukeri: ...

Hiroaki: I need you to live for me now.

...

Sukeri: Okay...I promise.

Hiroaki: Good.

Sukeri: ;-; Why are you saying all of this?

Hiroaki: ...do you remember that story?

Sukeri: Which one?

Hiroaki: Revenge.

Sukeri: Yeah...why?

Hiroaki: When I was shot do you remember what I told you?

Sukeri: Not really.

Hiroaki: *smiles*

*everything in the room stops*

Breathing monitor: *stops moving*

Sukeri: What's going on!

Hiroaki: Don't worry about...it.

Sukeri: Hiro! You're not breathing! BREATH!

Hiroaki: I can't anymore it's too painful.

Sukeri: ;-; Don't you dare die on me!

Hiroaki: I'm sorry...for being weak Sukeri...but I want you to know...

Sukeri: Hiro! BREATHE!

Hiroaki: I love you sis.

Sukeri: Hiro?

Hiroaki: Always remember that...

Sukeri: Hiroaki?

Heart monitor: *goes flat*

Sukeri: Hiroaki!
