* Stop taking my stuff, you retard! - Yuujin yelled at Misaki.
It was morning, and Misaki started the day by irritating her older brother, who was already annoyed from waking up in the middle of the night.
* If you let it scratch, I'll kill you! - Yuujin threatened.
* Oh, really?! - Misaki threatened to drop the toy car.
* Drop it and I'll ruin your makeup stash! - Yuujin scoffed, running to her room.
* YOU WOULDN'T DARE! - She ran after him and saw him grab some of her makeup.
* Giving up? - Yuujin countered.
* I... - As Misaki was about to retort, she was interrupted by Emi.
* Alright, enough clowning around, I need both of you - Emi said, counting some cash in her hand.
* Our help? - Misaki questioned, still holding the toy car.
* We're going downtown, I need to enroll you two today, I don't want to leave it for later. I'm taking advantage of my day off today. Let's go, quickly - Emi stated, leaving the room and abandoning the siblings' conflict.
* Hear that? LET GO OF MY TOY CAR! -
* LET GO OF MY MAKEUP! - The two said, and the conflict continued.
* Were they like this at their old house too? - Emi wondered to herself, going to do something more useful than listen to sibling squabbles.
About two hours later, they were getting ready to leave.
* You look ridiculous, hahahaha - Misaki laughed at Yuujin's face.
* Are you looking in the mirror, pink-haired clown? - Yuujin rolled his eyes, and Misaki punched him in the shoulder.
* Who are you calling a clown, you Scream ghost! - Misaki retorted, and another conflict began.
* I'll show you who's a Scream ghost, dollar-store Harley Quinn! - Yuujin threatened.
* You're not man enough for that! - She retorted again, and Emi snapped her fingers.
* How did your parents put up with you two? It's almost impossible - Emi ran a hand through her hair.
* And you're going out dressed like that? - Yuujin questioned.
* Like what? - Emi returned the question.
* You look like a biker - Yuujin sweated a bit, nervous about her reaction.
* I could retort, but I'm out of patience for that because I have to separate textbook questions for tests - She was about to walk away, but Misaki asked something.
* Why can't we study at the same school you work at? - Misaki asked innocently.
* And why would I want you two there? - Emi chuckled a bit.
* That wasn't funny! - Yuujin said, and Misaki agreed with him.
* If you two got annoyed, the fun was only for me to see. But if you think it's fine to study at the same school I work at, then it'll reduce the time I'd spend looking for another school - She went to her room to get her things, laughing at the situation.
Already downtown, they were exploring everything.
* Why exactly do I need to be your model? Can't you just call someone random? - Yuujin was a bit bored in a clothing store, while Misaki forced him to try on clothes.
* Look, I want to start my future businesses, and you naturally look like a mannequin, so you'll be my perfect model - Misaki began taking photos of him and asking him to change poses.
* Sometimes I wish I had a normal sister -
* And sometimes I wish I had a brother who complained less! - And another daily conflict, as always.
While they were fighting, Emi was enrolling them in school.
* And the parents? - The superior questioned.
* Oh... Their parents passed away in a car accident - Emi said, casually.
* I see. Fill out this information, then assume custody of them - She stated.
* If I had known it was so much trouble, I wouldn't have even come - Emi grumbled to herself.
* What was that? - The superior raised an eyebrow.
* What? Did I say something? I don't remember saying anything - With that, Emi met the last requirements to finally enroll them.
* All done. I hope you don't use your family ties to give them advantages - The superior commented, as Emi would, at certain times, teach them.
* Never. In fact, I'll even be tougher on them - Emi smiled, and the two finalized everything they needed to.
Emi left the school to look for her siblings.
Where were they? In a toy store, with Yuujin looking for more toy cars.
* You act like a kid, you're going to pay me for making me stay in this awful place - Misaki grumbled.
* Oh really, I was forced to wear makeup just so you could take pictures of me! - Yuujin grumbled back.
* At least you look beautiful - She laughed at her brother's face.
* Listen here, you... - He was interrupted by Emi.
* Are you serious that I wandered all over downtown just for you two to be in a children's toy store? - Emi looked at the toy cars behind them.
* It was stronger than me, I need to buy some of them - Yuujin said, picking a few up in his hands.
* You should work, maybe you'd understand the value of money - Emi stated, leading them both to the cashier with Yuujin's toy cars.
* That's right... I should get a small job, let's say - Yuujin thought that might be a good idea.
* I was joking, but that would help a lot, I support your idea. It would help me - Emi said, somewhat tiredly.
Arriving home, as usual, more conflicts.
* I'm not wearing this! - Yuujin yelled.
* Of course you are, you're my model - Misaki smiled.
* I don't remember agreeing! - Yuujin complained.
* And why were you quiet back at the store then? - Misaki scoffed.
* Damn it... - They complained and insulted each other until they entered the house.
Emi went to prepare dinner, and the two started talking about school.
* Ugh... Meeting new people is horrible... - Yuujin complained.
* I agree, but I thought about it and realized I'm free from that annoying Hitome - Misaki said, more carefree.
* You make friends easily, I'm... Kind of quiet... - Yuujin stated somewhat fragilely.
* Indeed, you look like a refrigerator with no purpose - Just as Yuujin was about to complain, Emi stopped him once again.
* Dinner's almost ready, go wash your hands! - She exclaimed.
* Already? - Misaki asked.
* Do you think I'm stupid? I left a lot of things ready when we left - Emi smiled, and the two went to the table.
Yuujin was very thoughtful, reflecting on this new school... A new stage in his life.
He was remembering his old school... His old friends...
Flashback On
* Go, Yuujin!!! - Kuron shouted, and Yuujin managed to score the goal.
* I... I did it! - Yuujin was hugged by a circle of friends.
He had found a group... People who thought he was cool... But now. Everything was new.
Flashback off.
Everything changed literally overnight, and now it was time to start over, because now... It was already the first day of school... The night passed... The rest turned into anxiety... The wait was over... It was time for this new beginning of life.
To be continued... ^^
