Wishful Hearts [Kujo Tenn Love Story]

25

 After Xana had confirmed with Rena's father that it was time for Rena to get home, Xana messaged Gaku and told him to meet her on the porch with Rena. The duo then left out and waited for Rena and Gaku. When Gaku had gotten to the apartment, the two of them left his car and went towards the door only for Xana to place her hands over her eyes. Rena stiffened a bit feeling her friends hands over her eyes. "Xana what the heck?"

"Just go with it Re, it'll be alright promise." Xana said happily

Xana was rather excited to see what her father had did for her, only to glare when she saw that her father had gathered all of her siblings. When she let Rena see what was waiting for her, Rena stiffened as she saw that her father had organized a birthday party for her with her siblings all there.

"Happy birthday Rena." They said in unison.

Rena froze in fear seeing all of her siblings before she bolted out of the house. Her father looked confused and Xana shook her head. "You are seriously a moron Mr. Anaya. You realize that you've literally just made your daughter go into a hysterical melt down seeing her elder siblings. Do you have any idea what your daughter has gone through because of your other children?!"

Rena's father was silent as Gaku had left the apartment to check up on Rena. Xana let out a sigh before she shook her head. "First off, your eldest three have been using her as a maid just like your wife has. She has no social life or a job because of them. Then to top that all off all four of them have been stealing Rena's hard earned money for themselves and forcing her to quit her jobs when it's most convenient for them. As for your younger children, she is their nanny and basically segregate mother since their real mother is a good for nothing sloth with no actual will to be a mother. Rena is terrified that with all of them here that she'll have to go back to how things were once more. You know absolutely nothing about the life that your daughter lived and that's because you don't dare listen to her or are home enough to listen and care. You believe what your compulsive liar sloth of a wife says over anything any of your children may say. None of them can reach out to speak to you because you shoot them down as if what they say means nothing. Like Rena means nothing." Xana said seriously

Xana then looked at Rena's siblings. "All of you should be ashamed of yourselves! This is the first time in years Rena has celebrated her birthday. All of you should have done more to make Rena felt more at home here and not made her life hell after all of the things she's done for all of you. Without her this place would have fallen to shambles already. Would you want to be treated the way you treat her if you were in her shoes? If the answer is no then you need to stop it and treat her how you want to be treated or you won't have a sister to lean against in later years. All of you are cutting ties and burning bridges with her with every push down comment and action you do to her to make her scared or upset."

All of them looked down ashamed of themselves, knowing that Xana was right-knowing that what they were doing was completely wrong to do.

When Rena came back into the house with Gaku, she had spoken up to Xana. "X-Xana...W-What did you do?"

"I merely spoke to them the truth that they had ignorantly ignored. Are you okay?"

"No, I'm not. I don't want to see any of them for how badly they've used and abused me-but I promised Gaku I'd try to deal with them and my past trauma." Rena said shaking her head sadly

One of Rena's younger siblings went up to Rena which made her hold onto Gaku's arm a bit tighter. "Big sis...the other girls and I never meant for things to get this bad. We...we didn't think that what was happening was a bad thing. W-we really didn't understand what was going on and we're really sorry about the way we've treated you."
