Aki-Sora:
Love Resigned
Chapter Six:
The Horror of Love
Part Three
"Aki-chan, can you please try to get Runa-chan to return? I really need to apologize to her and to explain myself properly. And I am sure that you don't want to about your brother's past exploits." Aoi Sora had winked at the last of his words came out. He knew that she would comprehend what he was getting at by those words.
Aoi Aki stood up and kissed him upon the forehead and turned to leave. At the last moment before she left, she turned to the side and glanced at him with a frown. "I have, already, listened to all of the high school stories of your exploits aired out by those that were involved. And they know, now, how close a brother and sister can be. Please, feel free to explain those details to Dr. Foster. I am hoping that after you have been allowed to leave the hospital and to start on your rehabilitation that we can talk about our futures. And I will make sure Runa is returned, because that discussion is for the three of us to have together."
It was obvious that her words had piqued the hospital's therapists' interest, but it was unknown which of his interests had been piqued. He had to cough into his had to recollect himself and to get the young man's attention. "So, do you mind telling me about what had happened in high school and all of these exploits. It seems like the most likely place to start."
"I guess that is true, but I will leave out the more graphic details. Those would be quite embarrassing for myself and the women involved." Sora replied as he laid back with his eyes closed to recall the entire series of events. He began from the very confession that he gave to his older sister about his feelings.
Note: At this point, feel free to read the Aki-Sora manga for all of these details.
After several hours, he finished his story as he spoke the name of his most beloved sister for what should have been the final time. It was with tears streaming down his face that he concluded his story. He felt the light touch of a handkerchief being used to dry his tears and became shocked by such a gentle sensation. He gathered his strength and regained his composure. 'Thank you for caring about my tears, doctor."
The hand had not left and Sora reached up and touched it as he, finally, opened his eyes. The fact that the hospital's male therapist had gained more than a professional interest in him was more disconcerting than having relived his high school experiences. "Dr. Foster, shouldn't you be maintaining a professional distance?" He forced the man's hand and his handkerchief away from his face.
The other man backed up as he, instinctively, put his hands to his chest. He could not imagine what had come over him in that moment. "I... I am sorry. I don't know why I couldn't move away from you. Perhaps it's because... No there is no excuse."
The therapist collected his stuff with haste. He left after telling about their next appointment. "I will meet you in an observation room. It will have a two-way mirror with two nurses behind it. This should prevent anything like this from occurring again."
