"It's positive. The patient is indeed pregnant."

The words of the doctor shock me. Does this mean Onii-san touched Su-san even though she's half paralyzed? I couldn't imagine him doing that to my best friend. Sure they are married but the fact that Suzuka can't move half of her body gives me the impression that my cousin just forced her to make love with him. And what's more irritating was that the fact that it's very dangerous for her to bear a child. She can't deliver the baby since her pelvic muscles aren't fully functional.

"Yui! How's Suzuka?" Onii-san says after he approached me while sitting on the waiting area of the hospital. I can feel how worried he is about his wife but my animosity for him still hasn't change.

"Why, Kobayashi, why? Suzuka is pregnant!" It disgusts me calling him Onii-san. "Why did you touch her? She's as weak as a wilted vegetable. Did you just force her? You raped her? Why?" I call him in his surname because I don't feel like being close to him at the moment. I also don't want people to think that we're related.

"Yui, you interpreted it wrong. I didn't force her or something. Suzuka is my wife. I love her so much and I really respect if she don't want to make love with me but she also loves me. She also wanted to do it with me, again. And as her husband, I shouldn't deprive her with it, so we did that thing, not just once."

A hard spank lands at my cousin's face. I can't help myself but to slap him. I love my Onii-san and I really respect him but his words really degrade my respect for him. Did it not just once? This is really sickening. I couldn't imagine Suzuka, a disabled woman, being forced to make love with this man. Even though he explained that he have consent with her, the imagery is still very disgusting.

"You really disappoint me Kobayashi. I thought you are the right man who would protect our Onee-san. Don't you know it's unsafe for her to bear a child? She is weak physically. She can't sustain to nourish the child. Her pelvic muscles aren't functional so she can't deliver the child without intensive medical assistance. Do you want her to be depressed again because she will be experiencing again the grief of having an unborn child?"

"No, of course not. I'm really so sorry Yui if I disappoint you but I hope you would understand me... someday." He says while bowing his head. I could feel how sorry he is about what he has done but at the same time he has no regrets about it. "May I see where Suzuka is?" he asks.

I guide him to her room. Suzuka is lying on a white hospital bed and has already regained her strength.

"Are you ok now Su-chan?" He asks as he sits at the side of the bed where his wife is lying.

"Yah, I guess. Maybe I was just tired because of this head injury I have." She responds while touching the scar on her face with her amputated wrist.

"No Su-chan, there's a better reason why you experienced that. We will be having a baby." The words of my cousin brighten Suzuka's face. It's my first time seeing her smile like that since the time she got into that tragic accident. If only she knew how dangerous it is for her to be pregnant.

"But I have also a bad news for you."

"What is it Yu-chan?"

"Yui told me that it is really dangerous for you to bear a child. You are physically weak to nourish the child and there's a great possibility that you might miscarry the baby again." He explains in a rather sad voice.

"I don't care about that. I will just be careful of myself and be healthy. I know Yui and Moa will do their best to take care of me especially that they aren't just taking care of me but also their niece. Am I right Yui-chan?" She then transfers her blissful sight from her husband to me. It really melts me from the inside seeing her so happy.

"Yes Su-san, I will." I smile back at her. I feel so guilty about being so antagonistic regarding her pregnancy. I didn't realize that would make Su-san really happy. I forgot how she told me before when I was nursing her that she really wanted to have a happy and complete family contrary to the broken family where she came from. Maybe I was just so apathetic to understand since I haven't experienced having one. Geez, I am not even thankful that I have lived having a complete family and loving parents unlike Suzuka. Onii-san is also so happy about it. Like Suzuka, I know he also longs of having a complete family since his father left him at a very young age after her mother and younger sister died.

Tears start falling from my eyes just like how the bright orange leaves fall from the branches of the trees at this moment. To be honest I don't like the autumn season. Aside from it is the end of my favorite season, summer, it also symbolizes melancholy, death, and most of all Halloween. I hate sad and scary things but I guess this is the opposite for these two persons that I love, Suzuka and Yuuya. This season is a blessing for them since it gives them new hope of having a happy and complete family, their lifelong dream.

"Yui, why are you crying?" Suzuka asks.

"Uhmm, these were just tears of joy." I wipe my tears with my palm. "I am just so happy that I see you smile again Su-san."

"Thank you for being happy for me, Yui."

"Su-san, I promise I would really be the best caregiver and aunt to your baby. I won't let her be sick or be bitten by mosquitoes. I would not forget to feed her if she is hungry. I would really take care of her like she is also my child."

"Arigato Yui-chan." She smiles at me with her sweetest.

Now I understand that Suzuka really wanted it so much and that's why she did it with my Onii-san.
