Tokyo Revengers; Choices

Chapter 7

Sakuragi Katsuki P.O.V.
-2017-

I spit a mouth full of blood on the floor. I sigh, stumble back until I feel the wall against my back. "We need to stop, Mikey-kun" I say. "We're toxic. We can never go back to the way we were. We are different people now, I am married" I say. Mikey sits down on his bed. He sighs and rubs his forehead. "Couldn't you have just stayed away?" He asks, carefully touching a scratch on his cheek. "I was always here in Tokyo. I didn't approach you" I say. "I don't want to stay away though" Mikey says. I'm getting frustrated because I feel the same way. "We were literally fighting just now, Mikey-kun. I'll have bruises covering my body and face. There's no way that this can be good" I say. Before Mikey can respond, my phone rings. "Yeah" I sigh. "It's started, Katsuki-chan. You have to come home" Ayame says. "Himiko is in labor?" I ask. "Mmhmm" Ayame says. "I'll be right there" I answer, and hang up. "I have to go" I say, and look at Mikey sadly. "Please don't contact me again" I say, and quickly leave. As I rush toward the subway station, a car stops next to me. "Get in" Ryūji says, when he rolls down the window. "Thank you" I say, getting in. "Taiyō called me, so I figured you were rushing home" he says. "Thank you" I say, with a slight smile, rolling the window back up, as Ryūji drives away. "What happened to your face?" He asks after a while. "It's nothing" I say. "Hmm" Ryūji says and I hear the skepticism in his voice. It's silent as we drive towards our house, and through the gates. I jump out, and run into the house. "Where are they?" I ask, as I see Taiyō in the hall biting his nails and Ichiro besides him. Before I can answer I hear a painful scream from the room. "What happened to your face?" Taiyō asks before I can walk in. I just give him an annoyed look, before walking in. "It's happening very fast, Katsuki" Ayame says, as  the midwife is between a Himiko's legs. "I already see the head" she says. I kneel down besides Himiko's head and Ayame hands her two cloths that's hanging from the beam so she can pull herself up. "One large push!" The midwife says as I pat Himiko's forehead with a damp cloth.

"Hello there, dear Momoko-chan. I am your auntie, so I will most likely call you Momo-chan" I say softly, as I have the bundle with a tiny babygirl in my arm. "It looks good on you, Katsuki. Don't you think, Ryū?" Taiyō asks. "It does" Ryūji says, making me look up at my brother, and his friend. My husband. "But we just got married. There's no rush, so shut up" he adds. I smile looking back at the baby. "Does this mean that this will be your last?" I ask. "Two healthy boys and a health baby girl. We're done, aren't we my love?" Taiyō asks Himiko. "I sure am" she says amused. "Doesn't Ichiro want another one?" I ask. "I have two healthy boys, we're done as well" Ichiro says as he walks in with Ayame. "How are the mommy and baby doing?" He then asks. "Fine. You can hold her if you want to, niisama" Himiko says. "I sure do" Ichiro says, and takes Momoko from me. I stand up to let him sit. He sits down. "Hi there Momo" he says, stroking the baby's cheek. "What were you talking about?" Ayame asks as she sits down next to Ichiro. "Taiyō was teasing Katsuki that it was her turn" Himiko says amused as I stand beside Ryūji and he puts his arm around my shoulders. Ichiro looks up at me. "The next baby born in this family will most likely be yours" he then says. "Yeah...well.." I mumble. "It will have enough cousins to dote on it" Ayame says amused. "I have a lot of cousins and I was never doted on..." I say. "They never lived in the same house. They were given different branches" Taiyō says. "In due time. There's no rush" Ryūji says, coming to my rescue. "There's no rush, but it'll help nice if there wasn't much of an age difference, so they can play together" Himiko says. "Can we please just drop it?" I ask, as I'm starting to get annoyed. "Let's just celebrate Momo-chan, before talking about other kids" I say, as I feel their surprised gazes. Himiko smiles. "You're right" she says. "We'll let you get some rest. Good night, I'll come check on you in the morning" I say, quickly leaving the room, pulling Ryūji with me. "I'm sorry about that" I say, walking through the secret hall, to our wing. "No need to apologize at all" Ryūji says.

My hand trembles as I drop it in the trashcan. He can't know. No one can know. I take a deep breath, and exhale slowly trying to calm down. I walk out of the bathroom, to see Ryūji putting on a t-shirt. "Your okay? You're a bit pale" he says. "I'm fine" I say. "Are you sure? You can just stay home you know" he says. I smile slightly and cross my arms. "I think I will" I say. Ryūji presses a kiss on my cheek. "I'll be off then. I'll check up on you later" he says. I nod and then watch him leave. I take a deep breath and dress in simple clothes before making my way downstairs. I walk over to Taiyō's wing and knock on the door of Himiko's room. "Come on in" she says. Carefully I walk in and she's breastfeeding Momoko. I smile. "Good morning. I just came to check how you were doing and if you need anything" I say. "I'm fine. Thank you though" Himiko says. "Did you have breakfast?" I ask. "Ayame just took it away" Himiko says, smiling. "I'll leave you be then" I say. "Katsuki-chan?" Himiko asks, before I can close the door. I pop my head back in. "Are you alright? You seem a bit pale" she asks, smiling. "I am fine" I say, smiling as well. "Are you sure?" She asks, taking Momoko from her breast and putting her against her shoulder to burp. "I am. Call me if you need anything. I'll be home today" I say, and close the door. I immediately make my way to the sacred tree and sit down. I take a deep breath and close my eyes as I exhale. "Something must be troubling you deeply, if you're here before you even had breakfast" I hear fathers voice. "What makes you say I didn't have breakfast?" I ask, opening my eyes. "I may be old, Katsuki. But I'm no fool" Father says, sitting down next to me. "Do you want to talk about it?" Father asks. I hesitate. "Not really" I answer. "That's fine too" Father answers. "You can just sit here until you feel better." He says. "But make sure you drink plenty" he says, putting a pot of tea and a cup next to me, before he stands up and leaves again.
