Chapter Three - Two Not So Perfect Families

Chapter Thee - Two Not So Perfect Families

Y/N's POV

As much as I would love to never step foot inside this house and instead be with Yuji or any other person as far away from here, I know I have to come on Fridays because those days Mom is off work and apparently, also the days she decides to be a mom.

"Kentaro, I thought we talked about this?" I can hear her worry before I even walk inside the house.

"Mom," Kentaro whines, "Ah~ Stop that!"

I walk in to find both of them on the couch with her examining his face. There is dried blood across his face and a purple bruise around his eye. I know that no matter how bad my brother looks, the other person must look worse, so I don't worry about it.

"Y/N! Where have you been!"

I ignore her and walk to the kitchen. I shove a cookie to my mouth before reaching for a wet towel and ice.

"It's already dark!"

I walk back to the living room and throw the bag of ice and towel and Kentaro.

"You look like shit," I say after I swallow the cookie.

Mom grabs the towel and begins to clean the dry wound. He winces from the pain but besides that, he doesn't say anything. I'm sure there are so many things he wants to scream, but for mom's sake, he stays silent. Everyone always seems to be worrying about her, she is a delicate dandelion that will fall apart with the smallest blow of air.

"Who did that to you so I can thank them?" I laugh and lean over from behind the couch. It's an obvious tease, but mom takes it seriously.

"Seriously, Y/N," She sights and gives me a look. I'm sure everyone's mom does that look. The one where they slightly twist their head and frown with their mouth open. One that conveys so much disappointment. Her face quickly changes though, it morphs into disgusgust and confusion as she sniffs the air trying to look for the source. Without trying to make it obvious, I take two steps backwards.

I thought that with enough perfume, the smell of the blunt I shared with Yuji would disappear, I guess not. I wasn't planning on getting high today again, but Yuji was already waiting for me when I got off school and the day had been stressful enough. We went to his house where last night's scene repeated all over again- we got high and had sex.

"Are you fucking high?!" She stands up from her seat and screams just in time for dad to hear as he walks in from another tiring day. He rolls his eyes before letting out a loud exhale. Here we go again.

"Huh?" I take another step back and reply as angry as she did. She didn't get to play mom now.

"Are you?" Dad raises an eyebrow.

"No!" I scream, sounding almost offended that I am being accused of such a thing. I am not high, not anymore.

"Let me smell your clothes!" Mom walks towards me.

"NO! Jesus, women!" I turn to shield myself from her but I'm sure she can smell the skunky smell, "Do you not trust me!?"

"Oh, Y/N!" She matches my tone, "Don't try to make yourself the victim!"

"The victim?!" I laugh, "Just like you?! I must be picking your bad habits!"

I know I hit a spot when I see her face soften, however, that's not enough to make her back off. If anything, she becomes more aggressive.

"Where did you get that drug, Y/N?! I won't ask twice!"

When I stay quiet, she turns to look at Kentaro. He knows exactly what I do with Yuji in my free time, rumors always carry some truth to it.
