Under the Same Sky: Chapter 9

9 months later…

~Yuuki’s POV~

“Ah!!! Itai yo!!!” I screamed as loud as I can. Oh my god! It’s really hurt.

“Yuuki-chan, hold for a moment. We’re going to the operation room. Hold it for a moment,” Sayuri said. She holds my hand. I hold her hand tighter.

~Satoshi’s POV~

I am on my way to the hospital. My hand phone is ringing again. I flip it open.

“Nii-chan! Hayaku,” she shouted.

“I’m trying, there’s traffic jam here,” I said.

“She’s in the operation room already. Hayaku,” she said.

“I’ll try my best,” I said and hung up.

“Can you drive faster?” I asked the taxi driver.

“I can’t. There’s a traffic jam,” he replied me.

I pay the taxi driver and get off the taxi. I run all the way to the hospital. I arrived there and find Yuri.

“Yuri! Where’s she?” I asked and catching my breath after that.

“She’s in the operation room. Hayaku,” Yuri said and gives me the hospital’s clothes.

I take the hospital’s clothes and wear it. I enter the operation room.

“Okay, just a little bit. Push more,” the doctor said.

I go to her a hold her hand. She hold mine tighter. I can feel that she’s in a lot of pain. A moment later, I can hear babies are crying. She looks so relief. She leans at the bed and close her eyes.

“Okay, omedettou. You have a pair of twin. A boy and a girl,” the doctor said. The nurse gives me the two of them.

Super cute. It’s my children.

~Yuuki’s POV~

I wake from my sleep. Now, I’m a mother.

“Yuuki-chan, you’re awake,” Satoshi said. I just smile at him.

“Did you see them? They’re so kawaii,” he said.

“I’ve seen them. Sou, hontou ni kawaii,” I said to him.

“So, do you have the name?” he asked me and sits at the chair beside my bed. Name? I never think about it. I was quarantine for 7 months. I never think of it.

“Not yet. Why don’t just you? You can give name too,” I said. He gives me a thinking look.

“Hontou ni? I can give names?” he asked me back. I nodded.

“I’ve thought about these names long ago. We have a twin, right? A boy and a girl. So, the initial of the boy same as you and the girl same as me,” he said. He’s playing with my fingers.

“So, what is it?” I asked.

“The boy is Yoshi and the girl, Satsuki. Is it okay?” he said doubtfully.

“Cute names. I love it,” I said and he smiles brightly.

~Satoshi’s POV~

“Let’s go and see our children,” I said. She nodded.

I offer my hand to her. She takes my hand and I lead her to the baby room. We see our baby from the transparent glass.

She put her hand on the transparent glass. She looks at the babies happily. She’s cute like our babies.

“Kawaii,” she said.

~Yuuki’s POV~

“Yuuki, I’ve send the letter Northern Illinois University. You’re going 3 months from now,” Otou-san said.

“Eh?” I so shocked. I’m just giving birth for my child.

“You said it’s your dream to study at New York,” Okaa-san said.

“Demo, I have children now. And they were born not even a week,” I told them.

“Demo…,” Okaa-san tried to console me.

“That’s it. I’m not going,” I decided.

“You’ve wasted almost a year. You should started study now,” Otou-san said firmly.

“Whatever it is, I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here with my family,” I said.

Yes. I always said that I wanna go study at New York. But, no one knows that I just wanna do that because of Yuuka.

~Flashback~

“Yuuki, I really wanna go there. New York. My dream place,” Yuuka said.

“Hontou ni?” I asked. She nodded.

“Demo, if I died first, can you go there for me?” Yuuka said.

“Nee-chan! Don’t say that. It’s not like you’re gonna die now,” I said and we laugh.

~End of Flashback~

Who might knows that she’s really gone before she can go? I said I wanna go because of her. I wanna achieve her dream. That way, I can redeem my entire fault to her.

~Satoshi’s POV~

“Konnichiwa, Okaa-san,” I greeted my mother-in-law.

“Satoshi, I’m sorry that I called you all of sudden. I just wanna borrow some of your time,” Okaa-san said.

“Nani, Okaa-san?” I asked.

“Yuuki is my only daughter. She always said that she wanna go to New York. Now, when she has the chance to go, she said she didn’t want,” Okaa-san said.

“Eh, nande?” I asked back. I didn’t even know her dream. I’ve lived with her for the whole one year but I didn’t even know that.

“She said that she wants lives with you and the children. She didn’t want to go,” Okaa-san said to me. She didn’t go because of me?

“So, what can I do?” I asked.

“If you really love Yuuki, please let her go. Onegaishimasu,” Okaa-san pleaded to me.

“Demo, Okaa-san. If Yuuki really don’t wanna go, what can I do?” I said.

“Onegaishimasu! Please do something. Onegai,” Okaa-san said with her teary eyes.

“I really can’t promise that,” I said unconfidently.

“Onegai, Satoshi!” Okaa-san started kneeling in front of me.

“Okaa-san, please stand up. I’ll think of something,” I said.

“Onegaishimasu, Satoshi,” Okaa-san said. I’m extremely confused now.

~Yuuki’s POV~

“Tadaima~,” he’s back.

“Yoshi, Satsuki. Papa is back,” I said to the babies. They’re already sleeping soundly.

“Satoshi-kun, wanna eat?” I asked him.

“Yuuki-chan, I wanna talk to you,” he said. I just nodded.

“Nani, Satoshi-kun,” I asked him when he just stay silent.

“Yuuki-chan, why you didn’t go to New York?” he asked me.

“Satoshi-kun, I wanna look after these kids. I don’t wanna leave them,” I said.

“Demo, it’s your dream,” he said.

“I really don’t wanna go. Don’t force me, please,” I said and walk away.

He holds my arm and pulls me into a hug. “Gomenasai,” he said.

~Satoshi’s POV~

“I’ve tried, Okaa-san. I’ve talked to her. But, it doesn’t work,” I said.

“Try again, Satoshi. Onegaishimasu,” Okaa-san pleaded again.

“I don’t know what to do,” I said.

“Divorce her. If you did that, she’ll go,” Okaa-san said. I feel like my heart is crushed to powder.

“Demo, Okaa-san…,” I tried to say but Okaa-san is already crying.

“If you love her, please do it, Satoshi. It’s not for me. It’s for Yuuki, for her dream, for her future. You’re not gonna destroyed her future, right?” Okaa-san said.

Okaa-san leaves me with no choices at all.

~Yuuki’s POV~

It’s 12.00 pm. But, he’s not home yet. I wonder where he goes. This isn’t like him at all. He always at home everyday. No matter how busy he is, he’ll back.

That night, I sleep while waiting him.
