"heh...such a disgusting creep," you murmur to yourself as you watch yet another true crime documentary that never fails to entertain you, it's always been a little guilty pleasure of yours since middle school when you'll come home just to watch a true crime documentary, your brothers used to question you about it, but now they sometimes even find themselves invested on it themselves,

It's ironic really,

Ran even once joke if there will be one about him one day.

But right now, your brothers are currently fast asleep in their own rooms, leaving you all alone downstairs with your true crime documentary, "well... She was pretty dumb to begin with~!"

As you finish speaking, the doorbell rang and you get up from the couch and walk towards the door, unlocking the locks and opens the door, revealing a familiar figure,

"Hajime?"

You said, surprised as you saw him standing there,

"Y/n, hi." Hajime smiled. "Sorry for dropping by unannounced like this, I can't help to worry about you and whatever situation you're in...."

You smiled at him, "thank you for worrying about me, but... I don't really know what to say..." You sighed.
Hajime frowned slightly, "aren't you at least going to invite me inside? It's cold outside,"

"oh right, come in." Hajime entered the house, looking round the place, and you follow suit closing the door behind you, locking it again, "have some tea, let me warm you up, it's freezing outside."

"Sure, thank you." Hajime accepted your kind offer and followed you into the kitchen where you prepared a cup of hot water along with some instant coffee,
After placing the mugs on the dining table

"that bruise... Did Sanzu did that?" he asked in all seriousness, the bruise on your face might've faded after two nights, but its still there, Hajime could see through it quite easily

"yes."

"why?"

You chuckled dryly at his question, "obviously, we got into an argument.... I'm pregnant, and he was not happy about it at all," You admitted, "of course I got mad at him and pushed his buttons and then this happened," you pointed at the bruise on your cheek, "and then I realised, he's an asshole and I was being so stupid and pathetic for sticking with him for years despite of all the shit he have done to me. So I decided right there and then that I had enough and that I'm leaving him."

"you made the right decision, I'm sorry to hear about what he has done to you." Hajime placed his hand on yours as he looked deep into your eyes, "but I'm glad you're here right now."

The sudden touch startled you, but after a couple of seconds of silence, Hajime pulled his hand away from you, flustered, only realsing now that he was basically holding your hands. "H-hey, how about you go and get ready and I'll take you out?" he said as he tried to act nonchalantly, trying to hide the blush creeping onto his cheeks,

"oho, are you asking me on a date?" you asked him teasingly as you picked up your mug and took it to the kitchen sink to fill it with tap water.

Hajime's face reddened a little, "no I'm not, I just mean uhm... We should go somewhere nice to cheer you up. " he stuttered.

"yeah, sure, if you say so. just give me a few minutes to get ready," you merely laugh an went up to your room, and as soon as you were gone from his sight, your brothers came down with a teasing grin

"Koko, Reina's divorce isn't finalised yet and you're already making bold moves." Ran teased the younger male, "ya' wanna be Reina's baby's daddy?" he added,

"that's not up to me, y'know." Koko mumbled, blushing.

Rindo only chuckle, "you better don't whimp out on her this time, Koko."
Koko just glared at Rindo, "you think I would?" he crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"I dunno, maybe." Ran smirked and walked past Koko, heading straight for the coffee machine to make some coffee.

"I won't... Not again." he mutter the last part quitely

Silence fell in the room with only the coffee machine's sounds can be hear for a moment, until Rindo gave Kokonoi a loud and hard smack on his back, "go for it. Me and Nii-san would be rooting for you." Koko flinched at the impact of Rindo's on his back, it hurt.

He robbed the part where Rindo's hand hit with a pout, "thanks, but as I said, it's up to her if she wants me in her life not just a like a friend. Either way, I'll still be by her side."

"oi oi! That's the attitude that got Reina stolen away by some jerk! Remember that, Koko. Don't you dare to let that happen again." Ran warned him in a bit obnoxious way,

"Okay okay! Got it." Kokonoi nodded his head, shaking Rindo off,

"and Koko, if you ever did win Reina's heart, cherish it. And if you ever make her cry, i won't hesitate to beat the shit out of you like how I beat the shit out of Sanzu, got that?" The oldest Haitani said with all seriousness,

Though, it's unlikely that Koko would hurt you or even make you shed a tear, the dude remained loyal to you even if you got married, he still stayed by your side.

But to be honest, the eldest Haitani just don't want to see you cry over a man ever again, not after watching your slowly shatter into pieces.

Ran would never forgive himself for watching your life get destroyed by some asshole and not being able to do anything about it, and so would Rindo.

This time, your brothers would make sure that you would never cry ever again.

"as if I'll ever make her cry,
ya bastards." Kokonoi scoffed.

"good." Ran nodded his head, "by the way, make sure you bring her home before nine,"

Koko laughed, "before nine? Your sister is a fully grown adult, she's not a teenager anymore,
so why are we telling her to be home by nine?"

"cause she's my fucking sister and she's pregnant!" Ran yelled, hitting Kokonoi on the head that made Rindo into a laughing pit,

"bastard!" Kokonoi growled.

You shook your head at them, smiling as you heard laughter coming from down stairs, "they seem like they're having fun," you said to yourself, hearing Rindo's laughter all the up to your room,

"I wonder what they're talking about." you whispered to yourself, walking up to your closet where you took out a nice knitted cardigan to add more layers to to warm yourself more the February cold,

"they're probably just teasing the life out of Hajime,"

"poor him."
