Coward can be brave...if given chance 3

—-----------------Chapter 3—---------------

83 days, a little over 2 months and a research facility owned by the Hayato family is the steadfast research facility that has made so much progress, the other facilities and pharmacist got shut down, and then was hired by the family to make the facility bigger.

Nobu walked down the stairs and approached a scrawny researcher with messy brown hair, and goggles over his head. "How is it going, Dr.Uraki and team 30-Falker?" Nobu said, in the room with scientists and doctors from all around the world gathered, by his family, on his request.

"It's going well, kiddo. Antiretroviral therapy can effectively suppress the HIV in the body of an infected person, allowing them to live long and healthy lives."

He showed Nobu his data. 

"When taking into account three possible ways of success with a 30-38% chance of success, the antiretroviral therapy can effectively suppress the HIV in the body of an infected person, allowing them to live long and healthy lives."

Dr. Jung ho in the next seat then spoke." In order to prevent the virus from replicating in the body, a combination of medications is taken every day. As a result of this treatment, virus levels in the blood can be reduced to undetectable levels, so the virus cannot spread."

However, Dr. Uraki continued with a heavy reality check. " However, the ART is not a cure for HIV and must not be taken lightly as a cure for a life, and it may not be very successful laying down with 32-35%."

"How about the next method, Dr. Xu Li and Team 23-Volkswag?"

in another section, there sat a black-haired, red eyes, in a lab coat, standing up and fixing her glasses.

She answered and corrected her glasses again. "Yes...the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology. The process involves editing the DNA of an infected person in order to remove the virus. It has shown promise in laboratory studies, but more research is needed before it can become a viable treatment option, I believe it can be up to 40-50%. We are still trying not to overwrite existing DNA or mess up the genes from the genetic ladder."

Nobu nodded took it into consideration and moved on to talk to another scientist. She was from America and wanted to see and experience Japan's culture and its fascinating little world.

"How's it going, with you Amy? and your team 87 BunnyPop?"

"Doing great, cutie pie." She moved on her chair, hovering around with the four-legged wheelchair, to another computer.

I saw many people do that hovering from one place to another with a wheeled chair. I should get rid of it because it's annoying, but if they quickly progress I can overlook it.

"The study of immunotherapy involves using the body's natural defense system against viruses. HIV-infected cells can be recognized and attacked by the immune system by developing vaccines that stimulate the immune system. We thought of getting in contact with Team 44-HUR about how it's going with nanotechnology and they said it might not be too long before they can solve it."

Nobu had a relieved smile, it's a small progress, but a big leap in solving diseases. "Good job everyone, you can all take an early leave, see you all on Monday."

Nobu may not be a normal teen investing in a cure to save the one girl who didn't wish for any attachment to this cruel world, but with his new life, he does what he can do in a given scenario…

 after a promise, he wants to keep…

 a promise no one held for him, 

a promise he can change for someone else when they need him...

After returning to his home he went for a good ol' shower, he went to a hot tub and sat there for about 30 minutes before he went back. He looked inside a mirror hanging, wondering if he Should get a haircut.

 he pondered on whether he should just style it or cut it until someone barged into his room.

"…is that…? Aki-Onee san…"

"NO~BU!!!" She jumped at Nobu when he had only the towel around his neck and wore my black furred morning rope.

"Aki…what am I going to do with you?" 

Nobu held Aki's cheeks and her puffy expression made one hell of a resemblance to a fish. Aki pouted and let herself rest on his hands, nuzzling his warm touch and smelling his new fragrance and straight out of the shower…Lemon…

"That's because I love you~Nobu…although you make your Onee-chan jealous when you visit our Grandma at the hospital, she tells me you have been getting close with a girl." Now she made the killer eye. ready to interrogate me.

"Aki…why are you suddenly here, shouldn't you be attending summer camp?" Aki lifted her arms around her head and fell backward landing on the bed. She rolled around to a more comfortable position,  holding Nobu's pillow and smelling it.

"yeah…but then I felt I needed to see you, so I came back, also… I want to play the hot virtual topic Sword Art Online…and ordered two Nerve gear so we could play together, what do you thin-"

"-No!" Nobu said, completely surprising his sister. he had a scared, yet slightly serious expression. yet he remained calm to calm Aki down to not raise any suspicion.

"W-why?" she never saw Nobu raising his voice at her, she felt hurt.

"s-sorry onee-chan, but…I'm not touching that…" He rubbed his temple on his forehead, and after he calmed down, he sat down on his bed. Aki laid her head onto his lap for a lap pillow. Nobu strokes Aki's long red hair, inspired by their mother changing her hair color, she went from black to blonde and then red hair color.

Her little brother's soft touch made her feel that he was sorry he yelled at her. She smiled at him, and he acted so sincere and cute, she forgave him.

She lifted her hand holding his cheek, as Nobu rested on it. "It's okay, you can always tell your Onee-chan…"

it was times like this that Nobu found himself admiring Aki, she may not seem reliable, but when it counts, she doesn't disappoint.

Nobu sighed in defeat, his sister was so kind, different from his sister back in his past life. "Okay…I…will play with you, but on the release date of the full game…don't log in, make it a promise…don't log in on the release date."

Aki was unsure if Nobu was in the right mind, why was that? The full game will be so epic. if she doesn't meet up with her friends in SAO. then they will pester her until she joins.

But she couldn't lie to his eyes, she looked into Nobu's dark eyes and saw how serious he was. defeated but accepted his strange request. "okay…I won't…I promise."

She sat straight and opened her arms, embracing Nobu, and hugged him to her chest. Nobu wasn't bothered by her antics. it was not the first time she randomly hugged him or been affectionate towards him on occasion. She pulled Nobu from her chest, slightly blushing, and planted a kiss on his forehead before moving to kiss his cheek and slowly pushed Nobu onto the bedside and rested on his bare muscular chest…his magnificent abs…

She really loved him, even though it was wrong for her. She couldn't help but fall for him. no other man has made her heart thump as fast as her little brother. She couldn't help it. it pains her, Nobu and the girl at the hospital have gotten closer. She is afraid of losing him. 

Even if you find yourself a girl who can make you happy…I will always love you…my adorable little Nobu…Aki slowly closed her eyes and felt Nobu slowly embracing her as she felt his soft hands hold her closer and tighter. 

It hurts you can never be mine…
