Chapter 71

A/N: **WARNING**

AGAIN, MILD-ISH SWEARING BECAUSE HOW CAN YOU NOT SWEAR IF YOur own brother doesn't support your love life. sorry sorry sorry <3 ily

"Why?! Why, did you have to do that?!" Your brother, Ichiro, shouts in frustration, throwing his hands up in the air as you just stood there in the middle of the living room, whilst your brother angrily paces around the small room.

"How many fucking times do I have to tell you, Onii-chan? It was Sonia's fault for telling me to stay away from HER Akashi-sama!" You mimicked Sonia's highpitched and possesive tone at the end, even twirling while you batted your eyelashes at a quick pace, quickly changing to a disinterested and annoyed look afterwards.

"Don't you use that kind of language, young lady! That isn't how our parents taught you to speak." Ichiro sternly looks at you, pointing at you with the use of his index finger.

"Well, I recall our parents never teaching you to be this overprotective of you! You're my older brother, I know. I understand that older brothers are supposed to be really protective of their younger siblings but you're doing your duty as one in the worst examples! You're not even supporting me in my decisions—"

"That's because your-so-called decisions don't fit you at all! It will ruin your life and I'm doing this because I don't want you to regret them later on." Ichiro sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Why won't you let me be happy with my own choices!? If I was able who to choose my brother was then I wish it wasn't you! I regret you being my brother, you're horrible. You don't support me at all, you're being too much, you look at me with such pure disappointment and I'm so sick of it!" You frowned, closing your eyes when you felt tears pricking your eyes.

"(F/N)-" He spoke, but you quickly cut him off.

"I have come to a choice that I will be doing what I want in my life, disregarding what your shitty opinion is. I don't like being controlled like a puppet, I'm going to be following my own decisions, not yours. I'm going to be listening to my own self, not to you. I'm going to follow what my heart wants, not what you want me to do." You put your lips in a thin line, opening your bloodshot eyes before deeply sighing.

"If you have objections, please just shut the fuck up and keep your shitty decisions to yourself." You smiled with all your strength and sincereness before turning around and walked up the stairs, shutting your bedroom door behind you.

After locking your own door, you immediately leaned against the wooden surface, closing yours eyes, finally feeling at ease after telling what you had been holding in. It was a good progress for you. Even though you could tell how you're relationship with your own brother decreased, how could you not snap at him like that?

After handicapping your freedom and decisions in life, you'd indeed surely do that. You sighed heavily before reopening your eyes. You were sad that you had to say that to your brother but still, you were really happy that you just had the confidence and nerves to say what you feel and what you want.

"So much happened today... No wonder I feel so tired." You mumbled to no one in particular, peeling out of your own clothes and then jumping into the heavens called your bed, instantly slipping into a dreamless sleep.

T i m e s k i p

You unexpectedly woke up to hear your phone beeping loudly from where you left it. You groggily sat up, reaching for your phone that was apparently on the bedside table. You opened it up, almost regretting your action when the bright screen almost blinded your eyes.

You covered your eyes with your other hand, blinking a few times before facing the blinding lights emitting from your phone, in which you immediately got used to.

On the top of the screen, there indicated that the current time is now 2:44 in the morning. Upon seeing that, you quickly let out an annoyed groan, mentally thinking to yourself, "Who would bother me at this kind of hour?"

With a sour look on your face, you went to the messages and saw a message from the least person who would probably text you in the middle of the morning, Yato.

The message read,

"Are you free tomorrow?" You sighed at the short question. You moved a few bed hair strands away from your face before typing an answer, which wasn't really relevant to his question nor your supposed answer.

"What do you want? Do you know what time it is?" Your thumb immediately tapped the send button, hearing a low chime indicating your message was sent to the person who disturbed your wonderful sleep.

You groaned, turning off your phone and throwing it to a random spot on your bed before burying your face again into your soft pillows. You were almost near on returning to your interrupted sleep, not until your phone beeped again.

You let out an annoyed scream, was muffled when you buried your face deep into the pit of your pillows. You grabbed your beeping phone from where it was, the light emitting from your screen blinding you for a few seconds once again.

"Let's meet at A.E's Cafe tomorrow. Maybe around 2PM if that's alright with you. Someone wants to speak with you with something very important." You furrowed your eyebrows at the text before typing a reply.

"Yeah, sure whatever. Just don't respond after this. I need my beauty sleep." You quickly hit sent before turning your phone off and snuggling back into your blankets.
