pathos

I will greet the nurse at the window in advance, just go to surgery. "

Fujisuke straightened up slowly, as if he suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, at that time you told the nurse to find Director Naruse. Although I am also a surgeon, in this area, it is better to find an expert who specializes in this area."

Gently declined the Tezuka family's kindness to invite Fuji to have a meal at home, Tezuka Kunimitsu decided to send Fuji Shusuke home, Fuji did not refuse this time.

The noon sun made the skin a little sore, and the distant scenery on the street seemed to be swaying as if it was about to be melted by the heat. There were few pedestrians on the road, only the sound of cicadas screaming tirelessly.

"I didn't intend to trouble you."

It was rare for Fuji to have a day off, but on this great day off he was disturbed by a phone call from himself, Tezuka always felt an indescribable apology.

"Just treat me to dinner next time."

Tezuka was lucky that Fuji didn't say "it's okay" to himself. Such a straightforward invitation actually went along with Tezuka's wishes in another sense.

"My mother's illness... all right?"

"Although the palpation just now was just a guess, what I said at the time was the truth. I didn't deliberately hide anything. You don't have to worry."

The decoration style of Fujijia is more European-style, and the exquisite iron fence does not show any signs of decay. It seems that someone always takes good care of this home.

"Then, I'm going back, and Tezuka should go back to rest too, the weather is very hot."

"what……"

Tezuka nodded, and as Fuji opened the door of the entrance, Tezuka vaguely felt the refreshing air permeating from the room, which dissipated the burning sensation brought by the ultraviolet rays, and also dissipated the anxiety in Tezuka's heart.

"No two, thank you."

He saw that Fuji's smile deepened a little.

"You don't need to say thank you to me."

☆, the sixth movement

On Monday, Tezuka asked for a day off from the tennis training center. After explaining to his assistant the training content of the players for the day, he drove to the hospital with his mother, together with his father.

Tezuka Ayana felt that it was a bit of a fuss to have her husband and son accompany her to the hospital for an examination, but she couldn't help her stubborn father, so she finally let Tezuka Kuniharu get in the car.

The steering wheel was a little hot from the sun, Tezuka Kunimitsu adjusted the air conditioner in the car to 26 degrees, grabbed a CD in the drawer and played it.

Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. [-] in C Minor "Pathetique"

A majestic and heroic sonata has a name that does not match the spirit of its music.

"The human heart perceives the super-earthly in the earthly"

Without avoiding the morning rush hour, the intersection leading to the hospital was a bit congested, and occasionally one or two high school students would come out from the side of the road and walk together with unscrupulous disregard for traffic rules.The sun is a bit dazzling, even the lowered visor can't stop the bright sunlight from slipping into the eyeballs, accompanied by the notes pouring out from the speaker, Tezuka thought silently: "It's time to buy a pair of sunglasses, the ones with prescriptions."

It was already nine o'clock when Tezuka's family arrived at the hospital, and Tezuka Kunimitsu went directly to the surgical outpatient window with his medical record card.

There were already a dozen patients waiting in the waiting room. Ayana Tezuka followed behind Kunimitsu Tezuka, looking timid at the waiting crowd.

A young nurse was accepting patients at the outpatient window. He looked up and saw Tezuka, as if he realized something.

"You are Mr. Tezuka Kunimitsu! The tennis player!"

Without hiding her excitement, she greeted Tezuka Kunimitsu with vigor, picked up a ballpoint pen and gently wrote the words "Designed by Doctor Fuji" in the upper right corner of the medical record.

It seems that Fuji has already greeted her.

Within a few minutes, Ayana Tezuka's name was called. Faced with many patients who were still waiting in the waiting room, Ayana Tezuka was a little embarrassed, but she immediately got up and followed the nurse to the diagnosis room.

The three members of the Tezuka family entered the diagnosis room and saw a male doctor in his 40s, with traces of silvery white hair stained at the root of his hair. He greeted them with a very energetic voice.

"Mr. Tezuka, hello, I am Naruse Tianichi, your mother's attending doctor this time. If I insist, I can hardly be regarded as an expert in half of stones."

"I'm really sorry to trouble you during your busy schedule, thank you very much."

Tezuka bowed to him, Dr. Naruse didn't say much, asked Ayana Tezuka to sit down on a chair, and asked her some detailed symptoms, such as the time of onset, feeling, and past medical history, Ayana Tezuka still seemed a little restrained, Rubbing his hands restlessly, he answered one by one.

While asking questions, Dr. Naruse fluently wrote foreign languages ​​that Tezuka Kunimitsu could not understand on the medical records.

"No two, he is currently being entangled in a temporary operation. I will ask a nurse to take you for an examination. Currently, you need to do a urine test, X-rays and..."

Dr. Naruse listed the examination items one by one in the medical record. Tezuka Kunimitsu wanted to say that they should go to the examination department themselves, but before they could say anything, there was a knock on the door of the clinic.

It was Shusuke Fuji who came in.

It was the first time for Tezuka Kunimitsu to see Fuji Shusuke in a white coat, with a gentle smile hiding a trace of unreadable bitterness.

"Ah, Fuji, the operation is over?" Dr. Naruse seemed to have just finished writing the medical records in his hand, raised his head to greet Fuji, and then seemed to notice something, and smiled wryly.

"Did the boy's father do that?"

Fuji laughed dryly, and caressed his neck with his left hand. Tezuka realized that there was a red scratch on Fuji's fair neck. Although it did not bleed, it still made Tezuka feel that it was a scratch with teeth and claws. trace.

"This is actually made by my mother, but my father is helping me."

"It has nothing to do with you. After all, the child was already..." Dr. Naruse closed the medical record book and shook his head slightly, but quickly regained his composure and smiled at the Tezuka family again, sweeping away the haze just now.

"There's nothing important going on, so I'll let you do the checkup with me. It's very convenient to have someone who knows the way."

Tezuka followed Fuji out of the diagnosis room, passing by many doctors and nurses along the way, most of them were in a hurry, and the anxious nurses did not forget to say hello to Fuji while running , Bu Er just returned a just right smile to them.

Laboratory department, examination room, X-ray room... They went around the hospital in a big circle. It was past noon when the examination was over, and Tezuka Ayana and Tezuka Kuniharu seemed exhausted.

When Fuji came to the outpatient window, the young nurse who received Tezuka in the morning seemed to have shifted and prepared to rest. When he saw Fuji coming, his slightly tired eyes suddenly lit up.

"Doctor Fuji, have you finished the examination?"

"Well, I ran a lot of places in the morning, help me make sure if there is nothing urgent, I will take my friend to dinner."

"Oh, for an ordinary patient, these examinations would take at least two days." The young nurse skillfully picked up the phone at hand and said something, then gestured OK, and nodded to thank her , then turned around and invited Tezuka to have lunch at a restaurant next to the hospital.

The decoration of the restaurant is exquisite, because it happened to be built next to the hospital and the business is very good. Tezuka's parents sat down and drank a few sips of tea, as if all the fatigue of the morning had been swept away, and thanked Fuji.

Tezuka noticed that the scratch on Fuji's neck had slowly begun to fade, and under the warm yellow light of the restaurant, only the slightly raised skin could be seen.After taking off his white coat, he is now only wearing a white shirt.

Fuji and Tezuka's parents have been chatting with each other, and the topic has never stopped. Tezuka ate in silence while listening to them absent-mindedly listening to them talk about the decoration of this restaurant, the cooking methods of the dishes, and from their own life to Fuji's parents. Life, and then chatted from Tezuka and Fuji's junior high school to the university they separated, occasionally umm ah ah ah ah a few words.

"Speaking of which, Fuji-kun and Kunimitsu should be in constant contact after graduating from high school, right?" Tezuka Ayana was opened up, and her demeanor changed from the stiff one in the hospital to casual.

"When Guoguang was in junior high school and high school, he often mentioned Fujin at home. Since he went to play professional tennis, he has seldom contacted us. Seeing that you two are still so close, you must get together often."

"Actually, I haven't had much contact. Everyone is very busy."

"That's right, studying medicine should be very hard, and it's a department like surgery that specializes in surgery."

It's not 'not much contact', but 'no contact'.

Tezuka and Fuji's way of getting along is very relaxed. Fuji is a gentle and spiritual person. At first glance, he seems aimless, but he can always do what he wants to do well without spending extra effort.Tezuka, on the other hand, will list out a well-organized task plan in his mind in detail, and do his best step by step with his feet on the ground.

But from this point of view, Fuji Zhousuke is a genius.

There is no barrier between him and Fuji, no, there should be no barrier in the past.There is no need for complicated social rhetoric, and no need to worry about the other party's thoughts.Although Tezuka didn't speak much, he was definitely a straight-talking person who never beat around the bush.Although Fuji seldom expresses his thoughts clearly, when encountering things he opposes, he can also use indirect ways to convince the other party.Although Fuji would often make some innocuous jokes with Gan Sadaharu or make some innocent little pranks, Tezuka felt the most relaxed and happy getting along with each other.

Tezuka stopped eating with his left hand, and his gaze was fixed on the glass in front of him.Because he is left-handed, Fuji will always sit on his right.Also now.

Ice cubes melted quietly in the water at an imperceptible speed. It was originally the same substance, but it could become two completely different inorganic substances, interact with each other and merge with each other, and finally turned into a glass of ice water. It was really incredible.

Tezuka suddenly felt that he and Fuji were like ice and water, a cold aura with edges and corners exuding a cold aura that no one should enter, and he did things vigorously without any mistakes.One is gentle and flowing with a free and lazy atmosphere, which always makes people feel like spring breeze.In the eyes of outsiders, when two people stand together, do they feel "completely opposite" or "complementary in character"?

But the essence is the same.Can't tell where it's the same.Just as ice cubes can turn into water, and water can also turn into ice cubes, there must be something like that in the depths of the soul.

In the end, Fuji was called away by a phone call. When he left, he made an apologetic gesture, and then said mischievously to Tezuka:

"You're asking me for this meal. Auntie's test results will come out in about two days. I'll contact you then."

Tezuka nodded, feeling a little happy in his heart.

He thinks this emotion should come from the phrase 'reconnect'.

☆, the seventh movement

Two days later, Tezuka received a call from Shusuke Fuji during his lunch break at the training center.

"The results came out, and it really was a stone."

"Is that so?"

Holding his mobile phone, Tezuka walked into the lounge on the side of the training center. During the lunch break, the students began to move around freely. There was no one in the lounge, and the call signal was better than in his office.

"From the kidney to the ureter, that's the place where stones are most likely to grow. It's quite obvious on X-rays, and it's better to have surgery to remove them."

Tezuka vaguely heard some noise on the other end of the phone, he guessed it must be the call to himself in the hospital corridor.

"is it serious?"

"A relatively common minor problem, but it will definitely hurt again if left alone."

"Okay, let me tell my mother, when will the surgery be?"

"Just this month, I'll help you arrange the specific time."

Tezuka wanted to say thank you to Fuji, but he swallowed the words inexplicably.

"Surgery, are you doing it?"

"Dr. Naruse is the chief surgeon, he is an expert in this field."

Tezuka felt that the door of the lounge was opened. He turned his face and found that his two students were staring at Tezuka with incredible eyes. He seemed very surprised that Tezuka would appear here at this time. After the surprise, the two boys quickly Mouth 'sorry' in a panic and want to exit the door.

Tezuka gestured for them to stay, and stepped out of the lounge by himself.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Fuji, I interrupted your lunch break."

"It seems that I have to invite me to dinner again."

Tezuka sensed the obvious smile in Fuji's tone.

"Well, I'll treat you."

On a fairly cool day, Ayana Tezuka was hospitalized.

Calculus is different from other diseases. When there is no attack, the patient is no different from ordinary people, and can work and live energetically.But it is like a drug in the body, it does not know when it will attack, and once it occurs, the pain will immediately disable the person's ability to move.

The ward of the inpatient department has a full set of bedding, so Ayana Tezuka only needs to pack her own clothes and toothbrushes and other toiletries. She needs to do some preparatory work before the operation, and it takes about two weeks after the operation to wait for the wound to recover. Hospitalized for about three weeks.

Caicai packed her luggage for hospitalization by herself. After all, it was the first time she had to stay in the hospital for such a long time. Considering all aspects, she just filled two suitcases with big and small bags like moving house, and she still yelled that she felt that she was Not enough, Tezuka Kuniharu said sullenly while carrying one of the large suitcases: "Just go and buy it later, or I'll send it to you."

Tezuka Kunimitsu didn't say much about his mother's behavior. When he went to Germany, his luggage was only a large suitcase.

The ward is a double room, but the check-in list is only Tezuka Ayana.There is a small sofa behind the door, and the window faces south, so the lighting is very good.

A slightly older nurse introduced the facilities in the room to Ayana Tezuka, and explained the rules of admission and things to pay attention to.

After Cai Cai listened to the explanation carefully, she tidied up her luggage a little, and laid out everything that should be put out. After everything was tidied up, Dr. Naruse walked in from the door.

"How is it, Ms. Tezuka, are you satisfied with the room?"

"It's very clean, thank you so much, I didn't expect to arrange for me to live alone..."

Indeed, a room of this level is much more luxurious than the general room in the inpatient department, let alone a double room for a patient, ordinary people without this relationship may not be able to do it even if they have money.

"Where, I heard that your husband needs to be accompanied 24 hours a day, so I specially vacated this twin room, otherwise we will send you to the single first-class ward."

Dr. Naruse kindly told Ayana about the precautions about diet before the operation. Tezuka Kunimitsu did not listen carefully. He walked to the window and looked around. There were not many high-rise buildings around the hospital. The turbulent Tokyo seemed to be the same as today's weather Just as suddenly eased up, many patients in the hospital took advantage of the comfortable temperature and sunshine to go out for a walk.

"Fuer-kun is a very good kid. Besides, your son is a national athlete. Of course, we will not neglect it. If there is something to do, call the nurse. They all know you!"

Tezuka turned around when he heard Fuji's name, Dr. Naruse had finished greeting his mother, nodded to Tezuka and his son, and left the ward.

Ayana Tezuka let out a long breath.

"That kid, Bu Er, is really caring. You must thank him some other day."

The operation was scheduled for three days later, and Ayana Tezuka did not need anyone to take care of her three days before entering the operating room. Kunimitsu Tezuka decided to finish the work that could be done as soon as possible during these three days, and then listed the students' work. Training schedule, and take another week or so off to take care of my mother.

Tezuka Kunimitsu is the only child in the family, although his father said that he alone is enough to accompany him, but considering that his father is getting old after all, it would be too inhumane if his mother was exhausted before her mother recovered.Both parents were stubborn and unwilling to pay for nursing care. Fortunately, the supervisor of the training center readily granted leave after hearing that Tezuka's mother needed surgery.

Tezuka bid farewell to his parents and left the ward, and silently calculated the work allocation for the three days in his heart. When the young nurses at the nurse station saw Tezuka Kunimitsu coming out, they boldly stepped forward to say hello.

Although Tezuka Kunimitsu didn't want his thoughts to be interrupted like this, but thinking of being under the care of these nurses in the next three weeks, he coped with a few words in a formulaic manner.

"Wow, I didn't expect Doctor Fuji and Tezuka-kun from the tennis team to be friends!"

"This is how birds of a feather gather and people are divided into groups! Two people standing together are so eye-catching!"

"I heard from Dr. Fuji yesterday that he and Tezuka-kun were both members of the tennis club."

"Hey~ It's hard to imagine what Doctor Fuji looks like on the court, he must not be playing very well, right?"

After finally getting rid of the entanglement of the nurses, they were about to go down the stairs. The nurses didn't care that the voice of the person who hadn't gone far was transmitted intermittently into Tezuka's eardrums, and stopped as if they were dragged by these words.

"No other than him, he plays tennis very well. Even better than me."

Tezuka Kunimitsu left after leaving this sentence.

☆, the eighth movement

The day Tezuka Ayana underwent surgery was cloudy, the gray sky was covered by dark clouds, and the air was filled with sweltering heat. When Tezuka arrived at the hospital, Ayana had not yet started the operation. Fuji and Dr. Naruse appeared in the Ward, asking about the physical condition of the mother.

Fuji Shusuke will participate in the operation as an assistant.

The assistant who was originally scheduled to participate in this operation was an intern doctor under Dr. Naruse. For some reason, he was unable to go to the operating table today.As a friend of the patient's son, Fuji Zhou, who was originally free, took over the sudden job as a matter of course.

Regarding this, Dr. Naruse just laughed with ease, and said: "I don't know how much easier it is to go to surgery with Fuji than with an intern doctor."

Tezuka Kunimitsu watched his mother being pushed into the operating room. On the other side of the door, Fuji had already put on the surgical gown, his sharp blue eyes swept across a dawdling nurse, and accidentally met Tezuka's gaze.

Tezuka Kunimitsu bowed slightly to Fuji: "Please."

Fuji responded with a smile from Tezuka.

The red light "in operation" was on, and Tezuka Kuniharu was a little restless outside the door, standing up and walking around from time to time, holding green tea in the thermos cup in his hand, but he never drank a sip.

Compared to his father's uneasiness, Tezuka Kunimitsu was very calm at this time.

I've seen that kind of smile before.

It was on the tennis court. Standing outside the court, Tezuka Kunimitsu would always fix his eyes on that slender but not weak figure, because he knew that when Fuji's game came to an end, Fuji would turn his face sideways Come look for him and give him a smile like this that means "I'm going to win."

The ticket is in hand.

The operation was very successful.

It took about an hour from the beginning to the end. When the mother was pushed out, the effect of the anesthetic had not worn off. Although she was conscious, she was so drowsy that she could not speak a complete sentence. The nurses comforted the mother to sleep in the observation room, and then turned to the doctor. Back to the ward.

Dr. Naruse was holding a glass bottle, and Tezuka saw that there were three or four black and yellow stones of different sizes and irregular shapes inside. The stones and the glass container collided with each other and made a crisp sound. These stones were the culprit that caused the mother's pain. ?

Fuji told Tezuka and his father that when Aunt Caica wakes up, she will feel pain in the wound and may cry, but please try not to let her move too much so as not to involve the wound.If you really can't stand it, call the nurse on duty to give her some painkillers.

About two hours after the operation, Ayana Tezuka woke up completely. Although she kept screaming for pain, it didn't seem to be unbearable. The father and son kept guard in the ward, talking to Ayana constantly to distract She focused her attention until Tezuka rang the nurse's bell until the large bottle of yellow drip by the hospital bed flowed into Cai Cai's body.

The nurse came over soon, and while pulling out the needle, she asked Cai Cai: "How is it? Do you feel any pain or thirst?"

"It's okay, it hurts a little."

"After all, it was done by Dr. Naruse and Dr. Fuji. The wound is very small, and the recovery must be very fast."

The nurse skillfully put away the drip bottle, and moistened her lips with wet gauze.

"Dr. Naruse is going to attend a seminar in the next few days. Your recovery will be handed over to Doctor Fuji. He is on night shift tonight and will be here later."

Tezuka Kuniharu saw that the nurse was packing up and was about to leave, and quickly asked, "When can I eat?"

The nurse raised her neck and pondered for a while, then replied in a low voice: "At present, I can only drink a little porridge, and the drip will replenish nutrition. For ordinary food, it will be three or four days later. You can ask Doctor Fuji later."

Looking at his mother who was still stable on the hospital bed, Tezuka Kunimitsu felt that not only the stone in his mother's body, but also the stone in his heart fell to the ground.

It didn't take long for her father to fall asleep on the other bed. Cai Cai squinted her eyes and watched the boring song and dance program on TV. It seemed that she had no intention of going to sleep for the time being. Tezuka decided to watch the night anyway, so he closed his eyes on the sofa to rest stand up.

It had been more than an hour when he came back to his senses, Tezuka Kunimitsu had an extra blanket on his body, and he secretly regretted that he had fallen asleep.

Caicai looked refreshed again, taking her eyes off the TV show when she noticed her son woke up.

"Zhou Zhu came to check just now."

Tezuka was surprised to think that his mother was still calling him "Fuji-kun" before the operation, how could he become such an affectionate nickname as "Zhou Zhu" when he woke up after sleeping.

"There is nothing wrong with the wound. I will come to change the gauze tomorrow morning. I asked Zhou Zhu to cover you with the blanket."

Ayana Tezuka yawned, looking sleepy too.

"The child found out that you were asleep, so he was very soft on purpose, and all he said was close to my ear, so gentle."

Tezuka Kunimitsu folded the blanket and put it on the sofa. The even snoring of his sleeping father echoed in the unfamiliar ward.He felt a little thirsty.

"Mom, go to sleep, I'll go get some air, and I'll be back in a while."

It was already night, and the headlights in the corridor of the inpatient department had been turned off. The nurses in the nurse's station were chatting listlessly and in low voices. Tezuka avoided the nurse's station and took the elevator directly down to the first floor.

There is no bright night sky in Tokyo at night. Tezuka had been to Norway once for work. It was the first time he saw the moon hanging so low, and the bright moonlight bathed the world, as if the stars around him had become eclipsed. A moon suspended in space?It's as if you can touch it with your hand.

The vending machine standing in the middle of the street is like the moon in the dark night. Tezuka walked towards the only light source in the invisible courtyard, and at the same time found a silhouette that was so familiar that he could no longer be familiar with it.

Fuji looked a little tired, the can of coffee in his hand had been opened, he raised his head and yawned, it seemed that Tezuka hadn't been spotted yet.

"No two."

Hearing the voice calling for him, Fuji couldn't react in time, he straightened his expression as quickly as possible, and greeted Tezuka with a smile.

"Tezuka... come to buy coffee?"

Tezuka nodded, walked around to Fuji and put enough coins into the vending machine, the canned coffee in the vending machine dropped out, Fuji bent down to help Tezuka take out the coffee, casually leaned on the machine and took a deep breath tone.

"Surgery during the day, night shift at night, thank you for your hard work."

"It's a common thing, don't pay too much attention to it, you can go back to sleep all day after checking the room tomorrow morning."

Tezuka took the coffee from Fuji, and the jar was cold.

"Although you said that you don't need to say thank you, I don't have anything else to say other than that."

Tezuka took a sip of the coffee. Compared with the brewed coffee, the canned coffee has a little more sweet and milky taste, which is definitely not the best choice for refreshing.

"Tezuka is still the same, this seriousness."

Tezuka suddenly remembered the bright red scratch on Fuji's neck. Looking at it with the faint light of the vending machine, there was no mark there except the fair skin. It was completely smoothed over time, not even a shadow Neither could be found.

"That day, your neck seemed to be scratched by some mother."

"Ah, that..." Fuji also took a sip of coffee.

"The child fell from a high altitude, and when it was delivered, he was already incapacitated. What I really want to say is that he made an effort to rescue him but failed."

Tezuka didn't answer, Fuji's expression was very flat, his blue eyes were staring at the dark night sky, for some reason Tezuka could smell a hint of sadness from this unwavering tone.

"Hey, Tezuka, don't you think I've become cold?"

Tezuka also turned his gaze to the dark night sky, the dark clouds were slowly moving, and the moonlight of Mao Mao struggled to squeeze out a little light from the edge of the dark clouds.

"I'm not you. If I went through what you went through, I would definitely become like you."

"When I first started studying medicine, I really had the idea of ​​'no matter what kind of patient it is, I should try my best to treat it'. But as I got more and more work experience, I felt that I had become a A man like death."

"grim Reaper?"

"Well, probably once a serious disease is diagnosed, you will know that no matter how hard you try to treat it, this person can't be cured, and he won't live long. Such a skill."

Buer gave up using the somewhat shaky vending machine as a backrest, straightened up and stretched, the gradually fading clouds revealed the arc of the moon, and in the gradually strengthening moonlight, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

"What's even more unreasonable is when you know that this person is hopeless, but you still want to say to your family and yourself, 'It's okay, we will do our best'. Subconsciously, I feel that there are indeed many things in this world. You can’t do it with hard work.”

Tezuka only took a sip of the canned coffee in his hand, and shifted his gaze to the dark spout.

"I also have this feeling."

Tezuka said.

"When I first started playing on the professional network, I would work hard when I met a strong opponent. I never thought that I would not be able to reach a certain height...It was only later that I discovered that Asians are already far behind others in terms of physical fitness. , and this gap cannot be bridged no matter how hard you try.”

No matter how high you can go, this idea gradually becomes unrealistic.

Tezuka suddenly thought of the children he was educating in the training center. Are they in the same mood as Tezuka back then, secretly vowing that they would definitely climb to the top?

Bu Er chuckled, drank the coffee in his hand, and made an aiming gesture. Following a perfect parabola, the coffee can accurately fell into the trash basket not far away.

"It is indeed a sad fact, but isn't it good?"

After tidying up his white coat and his smile, Fuji said to Tezuka:

"It is precisely because of this that there is value in hard work."

Diseases that cannot be cured will definitely be overcome in a hundred years, and it is not impossible for an Asian to be ranked number one in tennis history.It is precisely because everything is like this that we will work so hard to live.

Tezuka watched the back of Fuji going away, the corners of his mouth slightly raised a little.

"Yes. Exactly."

The author has something to say: Please remember the hour when Tezuka-kun fell asleep in the ward. After the full text is over, I will write a short story about Fuji and Aunt Caica during this hour. It will probably be very sweet~

☆, ninth movement

Tezuka Kuniharu went home on the fourth day. Tezuka Ayana's body was gradually recovering, the pain had basically disappeared, and she started to eat easy-to-digest foods such as bread.Although Tezuka Kuniharu said it was okay, seeing his father's tired face, Tezuka Kunimitsu forced him to go home.

There are still three days and two weekends left in the holiday that Tezuka applied for, a total of five days, and he plans to let his father come back to take over the care of his mother after five days.At that time, my mother could get out of bed and walk normally, and it must have been much easier to take care of.

Fuji will conduct rounds twice a day at around [-]:[-] am and [-]:[-] pm every day. In the morning, he will check the wound and change the gauze, and in the afternoon, he will mostly ask about the pain and explain the precautions.The ward rounds in the afternoon of Fuji are not very regular, and sometimes it will be delayed until the evening.

During this period, Oishi Shuichiro visited Tezuka Ayana twice and bought some different fruits each time.The first time was the day after the operation, Caicai was still in pain, and she focused more on the abdominal pain than the people who visited her.The second time was the day when Tezuka Kuniharu came home. It was not the first time for Ayana Tezuka to meet Oishi Shuichiro. Knowing her son's friendship with this egg-headed boy, she smiled and greeted him, "I'm really sorry for you." and so on.

After the visit, Tezuka sent Dashi out of the ward.With years of old friendship, even Dashi, who has always been serious, has become casual.

"Is Buer the attending physician in charge of your mother?"

"No, the attending doctor is a doctor named Naruse, who seems to have gone to a meeting recently, and Fuji will take over for the time being."

Oishi searched the name 'Narase' in his memory.

"Dr. Naruse, he really specializes in this area, but he has come back today, with a professor from our department."

Then the doctor who will make the ward rounds tomorrow should no longer be the same.

Due to the relationship between doctors and patients, the communication between Tezuka and Fuji has increased frequently in the past few days. In the ward, the topic will revolve around the physical condition of the mother, and occasionally they will have some unnutritious conversations when they meet in other places in the hospital.Thinking that there will be fewer opportunities to meet Fuji in the ward in the future, Tezuka felt a rare disappointment.

But even if Fujitsu will always be in charge of Tezuka Ayana, there will always be a day when the wound will heal and be discharged from the hospital.Whether it's Tezuka or Fuji, they will all go back to their busy daily routines.

Oishi waved goodbye to Tezuka, watched Oishi's back gradually go away, what Oishi just said to himself echoed in Tezuka's ear:

"Have time to get together with Fuji."

A week after the surgery, Ayana Tezuka had her stitches removed.The scar drew a shallow arc from the right abdomen to the lower abdomen, and there were still beautiful suture marks on the wound. Dr. Naruse pressed the wound gently, but Ayana Tezuka felt no pain.

"Don't worry, wait until your physical strength has almost recovered and then you can be discharged from the hospital."

Dr. Naruse smiled heartily, and applied the gauze to the wound after the stitches were removed.

After Dr. Naruse left, the nurse carefully helped Ayana Tezuka to tie her abdominal belt, and told her to get out of bed and walk, but please don't force her too much.

As the days went by, the remaining hospitalization time decreased little by little. Tezuka Ayana recovered very quickly. Apart from being able to go to the toilet by herself, she actively cleaned up the ward. Looking at her mother's smiling face as she regained her health, Tezuka Kunimitsu silently feel gratified.
