People are gonna be disappointed with how short this chapter is, but I have to update it somehow.

Cho had been lying on the hospital bed ready to greet her two companions. She smiled warmly over at the two men who had just entered into the room.

"Please, come in."

Dr. Shouei came in dragging R.E.F.U. over & pulled up a chair.

"The doctor said you have radiation poisoning," Shouei said shaking his head as if he should've known from all his years' experience. "And being as the poison so recent compared to the bomb survivors, its more likely we'll be tracked down." He sighed. "I should've been the one to get sick, not you."

Cho only put her hand on her sensei's. "Its not your fault…"

R.E.F.U. had been observing Cho to she if she was all right as she talked with Dr. Shouei. Then something happened that made R.E.F.U.'s eyes widened; Dr. Shouei & Cho kissed. It looked like the same kind of kissing that the surgeon & nurse he saw before.

"Don't I get one?" R.E.F.U. said in a begging voice.

The other two looked at him questionably, but Cho instantly understood what R.E.F.U. was asking for.

"But of course." & she pecked him on the cheek.

You'd think R.E.F.U. would've been satisfied with that kiss, but in truth, he was a little disappointed. Not that he didn't like the kiss given to him, in fact it was quite sweet, but it didn't hzave the same tenderness and passion Cho & Shouei nor the surgeon & nurse he saw before. He could now tell by looking at Cho & Shouei that there was something there before he came into this world… and that he was too late to make Cho like him the way he had liked her.
