Chapter 12: Kanato's Past

(Y/N)'s POV
"Kanato? What's wrong?" I decided to ask. He looked at me sadly and shaked his head. "Its nothing....dont sorry about it" Kanato said depressingly.

"Cmon, let's go to the park and sit" I said and dragged Kanato with me. "Tell me what's wrong" I said, determined to hear. "I-....it's just that....that boy reminded me of my little brother..." He said while his eyes started to water.

"You can tell me...I'm here for you" I said and he smiled sadly. We looked at the trees as their leaves began to wither away since it's autumn. "Alright, ill tell you" He said and I began listening carefully.

Flashback~
Author's POV

Kanato was borned into a wealthy family. His older siblings were girls so Kanato, being the only son, immediately became his family's favorite since they always wanted a boy.

Kanato was treated with love and kindness. But, everything changed when he turned 17 and his mother gave birth to another child.

The doctor revealed the child was a male and Kanato was speechless. The little boy was named Azusa. (Im sorry but I just see Kanato and Azusa as enemies)

Once the little boy grew older, he idolized Kanato but Kanato hated him. Azusa took away all his family's attention and no one noticed him anymore.

Kanato began to ignore his little brother whenever little Azusa talked to him. Azusa didnt understand but he kept on talking to him since he loved his brother very much. Kanato wished that his little brother to disappear forever.

Little Azusa loved painting very much and he was quite talented at it too. He always painted whenever he had free time and their parents would always compliment him while Kanato just stood there, isolated.

One day, Kanato headed out to the village market to buy some flowers. Azusa saw him, he wanted to tag along. "Can i come along please?" Azusa asked while smiling.

But as usual, silence only responded him as Kanato ignored him. He sighed but decided to follow his brother to the market to help.

Once they reached the market, there were a lot of people. Azusa took hold of Kanato's hand but Kanato swatted his hand away in annoyance. Azusa tried his best to follow Kanato but soon got lost due to the crowd.

Little Azusa tried looking for his older brother. He looked around and saw a merchant selling paintings.

"How much for this painting?" A man asked and the merchant said "5000$". "That is way too expensive" The man said and the merchant said "oh its a reasonable price since it is from The Great La Vien's prized collection".

"oh, is that so? Fine, here's the money" the man said and handed the merchant some money. Just as the merchant was about to take it, Azusa quickly walked towards them.

"Stop! That painting is fake!" Azusa shouted and they both looked at him in shock. "What do you mean, little boy?" The man asked.

"Look, the colour of the painting looks faded" Azusa pointed and tue merchant sighed. "Of course its faded, this was painted hundreds of years ago" the merchant said.

"The signature looks wrong too. La Vien's signature always had a loop around here and in this painting, there are no loops" Azusa continued saying.

"Well, the ink must've faded too" the merchant said. "Not only that, the quality of paper used to paint is completely different. This one is just plain paper but La Vien's art paper is thick and looks a little like cloth" Azusa said.

"Is this boy telling the truth? Is this a fake painting?" The man questioned the merchant. "This is a 100% real painting! Don't believe him, hes just a child" The merchant said.

"I may be a child, but I know a lot about La Vien since I love to paint as well, so this is a fake painting. Not only the quality of the replica is terrible, they're also missing the moon's picture on this painting" Azusa said.

"Oh my! You're right! This painting is missing a moon...thank goodness I didn't buy it...thank you, little kid" The man thanked Azusa and Azusa smiled.

The man began walking away and Azusa was going to find Kanato again. But the man held Azusa's wrist tightly and shouted "you brat! You ruined my business!".

"S-stop! Youre hurting me!" Azusa wailed but the merchant showed no mercy and held it tighter until a snap was heard. Azusa's hand felt painful yet numb at the same time.

"Stop hurting that poor child, you faker!" A woman said and the merchant kicked Azusa in the stomach before running away.

Azusa's head hit the lamp pole when he was kicked and he fainted. Kanato saw the crowd gathering around Azusa and decided to see what was going on.

When he managed to slide in, there lay his unconscious little brother beneath the lamp pole.
