My dad sat picking up a book completely ignoring us. My sister sat opposite of Kiyoomi and I, she stared at Kiyoomi before asking, “Do you like my sister?” I bit back the disgusting words that were about to leave my mouth and looked up at Kiyoomi. He pulled down his mask, an annoyed look sat on his face. “What kind of question is that?” He grumbled. My sister bat her eyelashes innocently. “Well, not everyone likes a short tempered person, not only that but she doesn’t try to look good so.” Sayako started smiling widely. Kiyoomi only looked down at me and wrapped his hand around my waist pulling me closer. “You don’t have the right to question me.” He glared at her before taking out his phone. I could see a shocked expression lingering on Sayako’s face and my father continued to read, seeming unbothered by the short ‘conversation’. My mother came out from the kitchen and immediately began her list of questions. “Kiyoomi dear, how old are you?” Kiyoomi tucked his phone back into his pocket and answered in a low tone. “Twenty-six.” “How did you and Shirai meet?” Looking towards me his arm around my waist poked at my side as he beckoned for me to answer. “We met at one of Atsumu’s games, he’s a member of MSBY.” I said. “Wow, really?” My sister awed and I only rolled my eyes. My father looked up from his book. “Have you been intimate?” He questioned, glaring at both Kiyoomi and I. I felt slightly panicked at this question considering I am pregnant. I sighed lowering my head. “Honey that question is too personal.” My mother tried reasoning with my father but he still awaited an answer. “Yes, she’s pregnant.” Kiyoomi stated looking at my father who now wore a shocked expression. “She’s what?” He asked. “Pregnant.” Kiyoomi repeated looking at my red face. “Shirai, is it true?” My mother asked in a shocked tone. “Yes, I’m sorry I didn’t-” “Shirai.” My father’s voice boomed as I looked at his face. He didn’t look angry or annoyed, only worried. “Are you sure you made the right decision?” His tone was soft and calming. Tears began to well in my eyes. “I thought you’d be disappointed in me, I’m sorry I hid my relationship from you, I’m sorry I didnt tell you I was pregnant.” I apologised as my throat grew tight. My sister sat across from me with an unamused look on her face. “You should get an abortion.” She spoke loudly and everyone’s expression shifted. “Why would I?” I questioned, furious she would even say that. “You’re still too young I’m just looking out for you.” She smiled. “Sayako! Don’t you have any shame?” Dad shouted glaring at her. “Last time you were ‘looking out for me’ you had sex with my boyfriend.” I stated. “What?” My mother and father’s gaze went over to Sayako who was now wearing an angry expression. “You’re nothing but a whore.” I said with venom laced in my tone. Sayako sat up, as she was about to slap me, dad grabbed her hand glaring at her. “Sayako, I never knew I’d raise a child like you!” My father shouted at her as my mother pulled me into the kitchen. “Did Sayako really do that?” She asked in a hushed tone. “Yes.” I rubbed my arms looking away as more tears streamed down my eyes. “I didn’t want to tell you guys about it so you wouldn’t change the way you treated her, but after seeing the way she acted today I just couldn’t let her continue her nonsense.” My mother sighed trying to console me, meanwhile, Kiyoomi left the living room and went outside sitting on the stool on the porch.
