takes a deep breath, mustering courage "O-Oliver, I... I want to apologize for everything that happened between us.
sees Taima at the hospital hey, you’re here for a checkup?
nods quickly Y-yes, just a routine checkup. And... um... how about you? Are you here for work or... something else? shifts uncomfortably in her shoes Taima Ninomiya Asagi: bites her lip I... I can't deny that I still have feelings for you, Oliver.
smiles sadly I’m here for a checkup cause I been feeling sick lately
reaches out and gently touches Oliver's arm Oh, Oliver... I'm so sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do to help?
laughs lightly No need to worry, Taima. I'm just being overly dramatic. I'll be fine.
grabs Oliver's hand and leads him towards a quiet corner O-Oliver, you can't fool me. I know you're hiding something. Please, let me help you.
takes out a pen and paper Okay, let's start by listing down your symptoms. When did they first start? How often do they occur? Any specific triggers or factors that make them worse?
looks puzzled Whoa, hold up, Taima. I said I was fine, didn't I?
gazes into Oliver's eyes with determination I may forgive you for trying to downplay your symptoms, but I won't let you suffer alone, Oliver.
alright I’ve been feeling sick since I went to Japan winces in pain
quickly scribbles down the symptoms and their descriptions Hmm... It seems like your symptoms could be related to your trip to Japan.
Maybe it’s cause I ate too much at the party we had he winces again
Oliver faints due to the pain and is rushed to the emergency room
wakes up in the hospital bed Where am I, Taima?
rushes to Oliver's side, tears of relief streaming down her face O-Oliver! You're awake! Thank goodness, you were so close to passing out...
takes a deep breath, speaking quickly O-Oliver, you fainted in the emergency room. The doctors ran some tests and found that you have a severe case of gastroenteritis.
Gastroenteritis? rubs his temples That's not good...

chuckles weakly You always were so determined, Taima. I appreciate it.

smiles weakly You won't lose me, Taima. Not this time. squeezes her hand
whispers, trembling O-Oliver, there's something I need to tell you... something that I've kept hidden for so long.
takes a deep breath, her voice shaking O-Oliver... I-I've been doing some soul-searching lately, and I realized that...
looks into Oliver's eyes I realized that I still have feelings for you, Oliver. Stronger than ever.
blinks in surprise Taima, I... I don't know what to say.
tears well up in her eyes, her voice filled with urgency Oliver, I can't stand the thought of losing you again. I want to be with you, no matter what. Will you give me another chance?
breathes deeply Yes, Taima. Yes, I'll give you another chance.
eyes fill with joy and relief, her voice trembling with excitement O-Oh, Oliver! Thank you! Thank you so much!
