A Perfect Life doesn't Exist

Alone

Tw: suicide mention, but only for one scene.

Muichiro pov:

"Muichiro, wake up, we have to escape before we get caught!" my brother whispered shouted.

We lived in a orphanage but it was one of the bad kind. The people here are so cruel that they don't care if someone was suicidal or not. Don't get me wrong, I never really thought about committing but I know a few who have so they have it rough. A lot rougher then me and my brother, Yuichiro. We only have each other since our parents died, my mother was ill meanwhile my father got caught in a car crash. Ever since there deaths, Yuichiro got more protective of me even though I'm stronger then him. And my brother knows how to fight but not even I would mess with him when he is angry. He will use his words against you and those words had made some people here got emotional damage from that. So yea, even though I'm more stronger then him, I still wouldn't mess with him if that makes sense. Ok, after all of that background information, I really hope you know the reason to why me and yuichiro want to escape.

"Why do we have to escape again and from who?" I asked in a sleepy tone. After I asked him that question I yawned.

"We are escaping this lame excuse of an orphanage!" Yuichiro said still whisper shouting.

The both of us got ready and packed everything. But to give us more time to get away, we put something to pretend to be us still sleeping. Even though it will distract them for a few minutes it still is something.

"Ok, we got everything we need Muichiro, did you got the setup ready, yk, the one thats supposed to distract them for a few minutes?" Yuichiro exclaimed calmly but obviously still whispering.

"Yup, also I set a few other ones just incase they get suspicious." I whispered.

The both of us were on our way to escape but we got caught by one of the most rudest grown up there, Mrs. Saya. When she caught us, she got the nearest object to hit us with but unluckily for us, it just had to be a broom. Both me and Yuichiro were trying to escape but it was dark and there was a few tricky steps which means one wrong move and we are dead meat. Mrs. Saya on the other hand knew her way on the orphanage which makes sense because she worked here for years and many other kids have tried to escape and most got caught by her so they failed. If we fail we will never have another chance again. Today really wasn't my day, I got hit by the broom, fell a few times, and got some other hard objects thrown at me. If this keeps up I might faint and who knows might get into a coma. Right at the entrance the woman was so close to catching us so my brother did the unthinkable. Yup, he tried to block her from getting into me but by the time I noticed I was already at the door with yuichiro holding her down on the floor with the weapon she was holding.

"Yuichiro!" I yelled

"Just go, don't make this sacrifice pointless and have a good life. Please, can you please promise me that. We already lost our parents so please, just go and don't you dare come back to save me!" Yuichiro yelled full of tears. Luckily, all the bedrooms were upstairs so nobody could hear us yelling. And just like that I left saying my last goodbyes, also got the backpack that Yuichiro threw at me before he tackled her.

I have been running for a while now, I should probably find somewhere to sleep. Luckily for me, I had everything Yuichiro packed up since I only had to cary two backpacks. One of the things we packed was a tent, it was small but had enough room for me and yuichiro, if he was here. The orphanage didn't knew about the tent so if they passed by, they wouldn't know it's mine or in other words my brothers. I got everything setup and before I went to sleep I prayed that I would survive and for my older twin brother who sacrifice himself for me and I also prayed that my parents have it better then me up there. When I finished praying I turned off the latern and wished sweet dreams to myself.
