Chapter 35: Support supplies

I know, I know. I was prepared for it in my own way. Is the current situation that bad?

Aah. It's worse than you think, Yuki. You might regret it if you did go. But you're still going, aren't you?

Yuki's serious expression made me think.

I want to hear from you every day in the morning. Of course, it's your call. But its dangerous at night and there are many attacks around that time. Thats why I want to hear your voice while its still bright.

I kissed Yuki softly. She put her arms around my neck and said,

I'm going to try my best to do what you experienced. I'm sure there would probably be times when Id feel like crying, but when I hear your voice, I feel like I can do my best.

While hugging Yuki, I said,

Okay. Just dont push yourself too hard. If you feel like crying, just cry over the phone. I can understand how you feel. Ive seen a lot of tragedies with my own eyes. I wont ask you to endure them, and I wont tell you to put up with them. There's really not much we can do. There are probably many things to worry about in a land not as fortunate in medical care as here in Japan. But, Yuki. There are people who can be saved with your hands. There are nurses and volunteers on site. Go learn English well.

Well! Marc. You make it sound like I don't speak english well!

Your english is very gentle. You'll be surprised when you go over there. Don't fight, because there will be that much cursing."

Japan won't be able to go to the conflict areas, so the US military will be fine!

Well... that's not what we meant.When it comes to moving the army, there are certain procedures to follow, right? Im just saying. Besides, whos going to deal with them if they show up suddenly?

They seemed flustered.

I will take care of everything. I've done it in many other countries. In Japan, it would be the Self-Defense Forces. Let's have them help us with the supplies!

The two men were stunned. On the spot, I contacted my brother Mikey, who was in the US military.

"Brother. I'm sorry, but I need your help again.

Again? That's fine, Ill let you decide where you want to take it.

"You can use the military for that, cant you? As long as you deliver the supplies, I dont want anything else from you.

Okay! I'll contact the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. There will be plenty more, won't there?

Lots of stuff!"
