Hasume's POV
_________________

________________________

“Hasume.. is that you..?”

I turn my head to the voice to see Kanato, Shu, Reiji and Subaru but the person who called out was Kanato.

I bite my lip and look away.

“Hasume, I know that you.
Why did you run away?!”
Kanato said, his biipolar side coming out.

I swear drop but my eyebrows furrowed.

'do they seriously not know what they did?!'
I yell internally, my fists clamp tight together, my teeth starting to grind against eachother a bit.

' Calm down, hasu. '
Beatrix says, trying to calm me down.

I inhale and then exhale, my hands relaxing.

I turn to look at them with pure betrayal and hurt in my eyes.

“..must I quote what you said?
'Are you insane? Just because she's annoying doesn't mean she can die! If you are going to just be a nuisance and a Bitch, then leave.'
or was I mistaken in what one of you guys said?!
So I thought, why not just leave since I was not welcome, and so I did.
That's where I met yuma.
But did you actually ever notice I went until now that you saw me with these brothers?”
I say, my voice cracking at some parts.

(I didn't type in what they actually said for this moment, I hope you understand, so this is what one of the brothers told hasume.)

“Hasume. We-”
Reiji tried talking but got cut off by me.

“Forget it. If you never noticed me gone, don't even bother trying.”
I tiredly said.

I turn and head to my first lesson, being food— unfortunately I had it with Kanato...

I speed up my steps and soon came to the front of the door—
2-B of many of the food classes.

I enter the room and go to my station, I look at the board at th front to see that we have to make food based around meat— Vegetarians had to do something with cauliflower.

I take a moment to think of what to make until I came to a stop when I catch there was another thing on the board.

'[Work In Pairs!]'

For fuck sake..

I shake off the thought and just continued to think about what to make and came to the conclusion to make

As i was about to get out the ingredients, I see Kanato come up to me— making me narro, my eyes.

“What?”
I carelessly ask.

“I noticed.. so did Shu.
I can't say for the others.”
He says, squeezing teddy tight.

“You and shu noticed?
At what point did you find out?”
I raise an eyebrow, crossing my arms.

“After we helped Yui.”
Kanato simply said, keeping eye contact with me— almost making me falter.

“i see..but did you even know what Yui and that church did to me?
If I told you, would you still want that pick me alive?
Who am I kidding, you'll keep her alive just for you personal gain, just like how all you lot use me.”
I mutter.

I look away from Kanato, but felt a tight grip on my chin, forcing me to face him again.

I look at him with hatred.

“Just because you're with those pesky half breeds, don't think you can get away with us or be snarky.
If I say to tell your past, I'll make you even if you didn't want to.
I don't exactly care, but I care enough to make you come back and keep you from others.
Now, I want to be your partner in this.”
Kanato gestures to the board.

I grit my teeth, and slap his hand away.

“go fuck yourself..”
I grumbled quietly, making sure he doesn't hear.

I grab out some beef that has been sitting in the freezer for about an hour and place it on the side.

I grab some white rice and place the rice in a bowl and wash it underneath some running water to get off any grime, I empty the water and repeat rinsing it 3-4 times.
After ringing the rice, I put in the rinsed rice and 2 ¼ cups of water in a rice cooker and let it cook, setting the time for 25 minutes.

As I let the rice cook, I grab out the ingredients for the sauce and put them all together in a small bowl but made Kanato mix it then made sure he set it aside as to not knock it over once he was done.

I take out one of the sharpest knives for meat and slice the beef as thinly as i could, and once I did that I took the rice out once it was finished and divided it equally into dishes.

I turn on the oven and place a large frying pan onto it, setting the heat onto high and squirting some oil into it, letting it heat up. I chop the onions fine diced and add it into the pan, letting it sizzle— stirring it once in a while.
After about 5 minutes I add the thinly sliced beef, Spreading it out in the pan and allowing itself to colour on the first side for a minute before tossing the beef around, letting it do the same on the other side.

I Drizzle the sauce around the sides of the pan, so that it heats up and bubbles quickly.
After the beef looks about done I Toss it through the sauce, making sure it's all covered.
Afterwards, I make kanato move the beef to one side of the pan so that only the sauce is directly over our heat source.
We allow the sauce to bubble and thicken for 1-2 minutes.

I take over again and Toss the beef back through the sauce.

I remove the pan from heat once it is done and spooned the beef over the rice in each bowl.

I let Kanato cut the spring onion and let him place the red pickled ginger onto the dishes while I crack eggs and separate the yolks from the whites and placed it on top of the dishes.

After the food was complete I clean up the stationary, Kanato only helping when he wanted to.

I crack my fingers and take half of the dishes we made.

“take the other half.. give it to the others or something.. I don't care.”
I say, taking a glance at Kanato but looked away, placing the sealed dishes into a bag I brought just for food.

I exit the classroom, continuing the school day without any casualties with the other brothers.
