In Another Life (second part)

Part 4

Akashi POV:

A few months passed and I was out of the coma. My body was so weak and I wasn't able to move my legs. I now understood what Bokuto felt like. Poor him, if only I was more next to him.

It was painful, every part of my body hurted when I moved it, it didn't feel normal. All the time I wanted to scream. I couldn't even move on my own, my hands were alright, but if I wanted to go somewhere, my parents would take me with a wheelchair. I felt sick of all of this.

I remembered the accident and told my parents because they wouldn't stop asking how it happened. Even tho it was obvious. A stupid car crash because lack of attention.

They weren't angry at me, just worried. I was so thankful to them because I no longer stayed at the hospital. My parents had to drive me everyday there, so I can have my rehabilitation done.

It was very hard and I wanted to give up so bad. The only thought that was keeping me going was the goal of making Bokuto proud. I had to.

Although my immune system wasn't as good as my mental state. I often would get two days colds in so little amount of time. I was struggling with that very bad.

I always would go to doctors for some dumb tests. It was annoying and I couldn't understand why I have to go through them.

My nightmares were worsening too. Sometimes I was awakening with cold sweat on me and tears in my eyes. Why did I have so much bad dreams. I guess I wasn't as strong as I was showing.

For my surprise Kuroo and Kenma visited me once while I was still at the hospital. Right after I woke from my coma. I didn't even had the time to check my phone, when they came to see me.

The moment I woke up, the weather still looked the same to me but when I looked through the window I saw that it was already autumn. The leaves were falling slowly from the trees, making a beautiful and colorful carpet on the ground. It looked so soft that I wanted to touch it.

Kuroo: How are you feeling? We came to see you, right after we got the news, that you are awake.

Kuroo POV:

I really expected Akashi to look way worse. So much bad things were happening to him, he had pale skin, like he was sick but even that didn't erase the soft smile he had on his face. It was quite noticeable when I searched for it. It was a real smile, for that I am sure.

Akashi: Good, I think.

Kuroo: I see, you haven't changed much. Your answers are as cold as I remembered them.

Kenma looked at me in disgust like I said something wrong and then sticked his eyes to the screen again. I didn't really understand why, so I chose to ignore him.

He didn't look very excited to come but I was sure he wanted to. Even tho he wasn't showing, Kenma was an open book for me. He cared for others, just hated to show it.

Akashi: Why did you come? You really surprised me.

Kuroo: Well, Akashi, I don't know if you feel the same, but me and Kenma think of you as a close friend. We just wanted to see you.

Akashi: Thank you.

Kuroo: What are you going to do now?

Akashi: Well, I was planning on doing rehabilitation, so I can walk again but turns out that's no longer possible. Some doctor shit, I don't really understand. *sigh* All I know is that I have to do them again, because I need to train my body or something like that.

I didn't know what to tell him. I just sat there, starring like an idiot. Then Kenma noticed that I was starting to panic a little.

Kenma: Akashi, I know that you will do something big on your life. Make Bokuto proud.

Then he stopped talking. I didn't expect that from Kenma for sure. I looked at Akashi, who's face was way more shocked than mine. He had a look of someone who's darkest secrets were forced out. I was impressed.

A few moments later Akashi came back to Earth and just gave a sure smile to Kenma. Like they understood each other telepathically.

Akashi: I think, I have an idea, I will write a book.

Kuroo: A book? What? What kind of book?

Akashi: A motivating one, I feel like I am finally out of that hole. It's my time to help others out.

Kuroo: But, how would you make them read it, where will you get the money? That's a big idea you know.

Akashi: I will find money from somewhere. And I  know what people, to which it's going to be addressed, think. Have some fate in me!

Kuroo: As far as you are sure, we are supportive!

I was surprised by his idea but it was a good one, so of course he should give it a shot.

Soon after me and Kenma left.

Akashi POV:

I really decided that, didn't I? It was strange. I was never the type to motivate people but I guess I was gonna give it a try.

I already had a little idea. I was not going to make a real book, it was going to be an e-book. That way I wouldn't be pressured by the amount of money I spent. I knew that anybody, who felt desperate wouldn't like the idea of going to the bookstore so they will get their life in hands.

I had to make my book socially popular so people can give it a try. That would happen easy, there are a lot of apps I knew for writing. My goal wasn't money.

People who've fallen will be curious for interesting title, not one that just sounds pathetic and nothing new. I didn't really need a motivational speech. I needed aggressive content which will make my readers think in a different way.

That's how my book "Thoughts"came out. That's how my plan to making Bokuto proud started.
