Chronicle 2

"I'm glad!" Smiling at Isabella was Y/n who held a smile on her lips as she's given a headpat. "But....why aren't we going together?" The little girl asks Isabella who looks down at her a bit surprised. Before her expression softens up as she caresses her tiny face gently.

"Why mama? Why do I stay behind, I wanna go with Osamu!" The girls says as tears well in her eyes slightly as she raises her voice, her hands clutching onto Isabella's black dress.

"I don't wanna be alone!" Isabella's face drops at this, this was probably the first time Y/n had broken down in front of her. "I don't wanna be alone again, mama!" She sobs, burying her face in her dress as Isabella gently placed a hand to comfort the girl.

Full on crying, Isabella is unsure how to handle this as the girl continues to cry without a stop.

"Y/n! Don't cling to mama like that!" Osamu runs over upon seeing the two, he peels his twin off from Isabella before she grips onto Osamu as soon as she lets go.

"I'm going with you, whether you like it or not! We promised to always be together, you can't break it, you can't break a pinky promise!"

Osamu's face morphs into a painful as he too began to understand the situation he was in. His sister's cries made his eyes tear up as he realizes that he'll be leaving without her, alone.

"I'll take care of her, just focus on your new parents in the meantime." A voice says from behind and he looks back to see their friend walking towards them.

The boy was older than the two, soon to be the next oldest in the house.

He mumbles his name, right, he still had him, how could he forget his dear friend. Y/n looks up at this, making her sobs coming to a stop for a brief moment.

Isabella watches, feeling sorry for the children as the older one holds a hand out for Y/n to grab. "Come on, we should celebrate your birthdays with joy and not sadness."

The little girl looks away, gripping onto her brother before placing her hand into his hand. "Let's go downstairs to celebrate with everyone now, come on, Osamu, you too."

The three children leave while the older one continues to comfort Y/n who is still sad, the tears in her eyes never quite disappearing.

"When I leave, it's your job to keep each other company, okay?" Osamu tells his sister as they walk down the stairs, leaving Isabella to her thoughts.

Later that night, Osamu was sent to his fated death on their 7th birthday and breaking his promise.
