Ayano just blinked as she watched him sit onto her bed and say he wasn't going to leave. It made her smile, and she also tightened the grip on his hand. Suddenly the door was opened with Ayano's mother walking into the room quickly. Following behind her was a tall, thin man with short dark black hair. He was wearing glasses and a doctor's coat. "Mom...Dad." Ayano said as she saw the look on their faces to see Zero there with their daughter. "Please just let him stay here for a little while longer. I was worried about him."
"Ayano..." Her mother began to say but her father came walking towards Ayano.
"You expect me to let one of my injured patients stay out of his bed." Her father said in a deep voice, yet despite his looks there was something calming about his voice. "And just so he can see my daughter which makes me wonder what is going on here."
Ayano's mother laughed, she was wondering the same thing.
Ayano looked down then back at her father and mother. "He's my best friend and I was worried. I just want to be able to see him for a while, then he'll go back, okay?"
Her father was quiet for a moment, seeming to be thinking it over. "He doesn't seem to be one who listens very well considering he jumped out the window." He replied, "A few more minutes and then he's going back into his own room and we'll talk about more later."
Ayano smiled, "Thank you." She said and her parents started to walk out of the room.
