2 Good Morning Akari

  Akari woke with blood dripping down her nose. She's laying on the bed, with her feet on the pillows and her head hanging on the edge of the bed. The blood drips down slowly staining her face and the white carpet below the bed. Silence filled her room with the scent of the flowers that can be seen in every inches of it. As she gain consciousness her eyes started tearing up from the pain that's she is feeling. A heartache, a feeling like something is slowly ripping you apart inside, but that's not all, the pain doesn't stop with a nose bleed and a tear drop. As Akari tries to stand up her legs would give up, her head would spin around and she'll slowly lose her consciousness once again, this is the 3rd time she woke up today.

  10:00 in the morning, her 4th attempt to actually start her day succeed, with her crawling from her bed to the telephone close to the door of her room. She called her friend Noah, just a person Akari remembers despite forgetting everything in her life. At 10: 15 Noah arrived seeing her on the door coughing blood and covering her mouth with the edge of the blanket she dragged with her when she crawled out of bed. Noah carried Akari to her bathtub, opened the faucet and let her soak in it. He called one of their friends to help him take care of Akari. Elodie, Akari and Noah's childhood friend, the mutual friend of the group. Elodie helped Noah clean up Aklari in the bath while Noah fix the crime scene like room of Akari. After the bath Noah would dress Akari while Elodie cooks their breakfast. Before Akari wakes up again Noah would give her a shot of her medicine to reduce if not completely remove the pain. After all of that, the three would eat their breakfast like any other day.

  "Akari, hows the doctors appointment yesterday? Anything new?"

  Akari looked down on her food trying to find the words to say, but like always it is the same.

  "No, nothing much Noah, but the doctor gave me new pain killers. It's in my bag."

  Noah stood up from his chair and left to get the new medicine on Akari's bag. While Noah is gone Elodie watches Akari eat the food that she cooked.

  "How is it?"

  "Good, I know its a hussle but thank you for cooking for me."

  "No, it's fine. I love eating with the two of you."

  "By the way, Akari, have anything fun today?"

  Akari stood up and went to her room, she picked up a pot of plant, the one that she received yesterday. While happily holding it she showed it to Elodie and to Noah who just returned after getting the new medicine.

  "Look at this beuaty!! the leaves are so big! and theres already a little pud of flower, i think this is calathea, I love it!"

  Noah leaned to the entrance of the dining area and said

  "I told you to stop accepting all those plants."

  while smiling at Noah Elodie replied

  "She already told you, she'd only stop accepting them if the person who is sending them turned out to be a creap. You won't even tell her who sends them, even though you know."

  "Oh my god, anyway stop accepting them. That person is so annoying."

  After breakfast the three of them will start their personal days separate from each other. Noah will go to his school as a gym teacher, Elodie will go back home to take care of her two sons before she goes to her job in a designing company. As for Akari, she would go to the library pick up a book and spend her time in Daisy Lane Café where she would normally finish reading at least 3 books before she leaves. She doesn't really need a job, her back account is getting filled with money everyday, sent by the same person who is sending her flowers.

  *ring-ring* the sound of the bell in the cafe that would call Himari's attention.

  "Oh, you're here again Akari, Good morning what would you like to eat today?"

  "Good morning Mr.Himari, I'd like to have eclairs today, and a crepe cake for drink just coffee again is fine."

  After taking her order Himari gave it to Misaki to prepare it. Before leaving he sat in front of Akari to have a little chat.

  "You only have 1 book today. Why?"

  "Ah, about this my hand feels tired today and it hurts, I want to use it as little as possible."

  As their little chat continue Misaki arrived with the order and loudly put it on the table while glaring at Himari.

  "Stop bothering the customer and go to work boss."

  Himari left while Misaki gave Akari her order.

  "This is yourn eclares and crepe cake with coffe, ill give you your on the house when you finish the coffe so I can bring it with your refil."

  Akari gently smiled at Misaki and said "Thank You as always."

  Misaki blushes a little while walking away
