"Brother! My brush got stuck in my hair again!!" One of my four sisters cried.
"Let me see what i can do." I said and began to get her brush out of her hair and brushed her hair for her and put it up in her usual twin tails. I tend to keep hair ties on my wrists in case of these morning emergencies. I got dressed in my schools uniform and my one brothers began to fuss. He just ate... Didnt he... I grabbed towle, put it on my sholder and picked him up and after a bit, he barfed and my mom asked if i could take him to the day care.
"Alright..."
"Brother! Brother!" The younger two cried. Probably their hair got tangled together again. They share a bed so it happens. I got their hair untangled from it and then my eldest younger sister screamed and that was my cue to grab Makos daycare bag and get going. I was then handed my own back pack by my mom before she left.
When i finally got to school, i was worn out... Why do mornings have to be so difficult... Its ridiculous...
"On morning duty again today?" My one friend asked. I nodded. She knows that im one of two guys in my family at home. My dad passed away so now i have to help with everything he did. And shes the one who gave me the hair ties for when i dont leave the house soon enough. She waved a hand infront of my face. "Are you dead?"
"Ive been dead..."
"Need sleep?"
"Why else do you think i sleep in class and study at lunch?" I asked.
"You should spend the day sleeping in the nurses office then."
"No..." I mumbled and she dragged me out.
"Let go of me you crazy lady!"
"Not until you sleep for the day." I hate her somethings... I really do.
When we got to the office she told the nurse and had to force me to lay down and even tied the blanket to the bed.
"Hey! This isnt fair! Let me go!" And then the nurses assistant came in and asked.
"Make sure he sleeps and is up as soon as the final bell rings for me." As soon as she left, he got into a jar and pulled out some weird gummy things.
"Let me go. Shes just crazy!"
"And how much sleep do you get a week on average?" He asked.
"If im lucky, 6 hours... Now let me go! I catch up on sleep durring the weekends!"
"Thats far too little sleep for someone our age. Why havent you been getting any sleep? Your girlfriend is obviously worried." He stated as he put one of the gummy things in his mouth.
"Mika isnt my girlfriend! She even made it very clear that im only like a brother to her! Now let me go!"
"Once you promise you will go to sleep after you answer my question."
"My family is insane and i promise!" He untied the blanket and handed me two of the gummies. "What are these anyway?"
"Melatonin gummies. They taste better than the pills."
"Isnt it against school rules to have the nurse or the nurse helper to drug students without a parent saying its ok?"
"The nurse keeps them around and keeps getting more for me. I process the chemical, Melatonin, differently than most. It actually makes me more awake while caffeen makes me tired. And besides, these are the kid gummies for those that it takes less to knock them out."
"Then it must be a pain in the ass for kidnappers to kidnap you then."
"Chloroform has the same effect on me as everyone else. Just melatonin for me." He pressed a gummy against my mouth. "A lot of people think it wont work on me as well. And if i have to force feed you these, i will. I know how to as well since a lot of girls tend to refuse to eat because they think it will make them thinner without any negative results and do that for their crushes." He took it from my mouth and went to the nurse. "Our sleep deprived patient is refusing treatment. Should i?"
"Go ahead." He closed the curtains and he got onto the bed after starting to chew up a gummy and connected our mouths and forced my mouth open and the gummy shit got in my mouth and he forced me to swallow.
"Two down three to go." He stated and smiling. I covered my mouth and tried to get him to stop. "Will you take them willingly now that you know how force-feeding works?" I nodded and he gave them to me and i tried to throw them and he did the same process as he did the other two.
"What the hell?!"
"Ive had to do that before and its the most effective way because its awkward for people to shove food or gummies back into my mouth. Especially for guys without looking like homos."
"Your the homo!"
"Im my fathers apprentice medical wise and he runs every single hospital in town. Even the walk in clinics. So if you want to complain, he should be doing an inspection of the major hospital tomarrow evening. He welcomes any new medical technique i try that works."
"Kimoru, another patient!"
"On it!" I went to the sink and washed my mouth out with water. "Now what might be ailing you today?"
"She fell on her leg weirdly..." I looked behind me and saw two pretty cute girls. He felt along her entire leg.
"Seems to be a sprained ankle and some bruising on the knee. And while you are still up, mind getting me some gauze wrap?"
"And thats where?"
"Right by your left knee." I opened the drawer and passed him a role and i began to feel woozy.
"And whats with him? He doesnt look too well..."
"Hes another case of not getting enough sleep. Its gotten to a point where he cant sleep without extra melatonin in his system. Now he should be about ready to pass out. Now. You should stay here to take some extra stress off of the ankle so it doesnt get worst. At the end of the day, you can call your parents to come pick you up or, if you dont have a phone, the nurse can." I sat back on the bed.
"And why do you do everything around here and not go to class like everyone else?"
"What i need to learn isnt taught in the classroom. Its taught right in this room to those who want to keep people healthy and in good physical and mental shape." I hate him... I seriously hate him... My eyes began to get heavy and soon i was asleep.
When i woke up, it was lunch time. I got up and would have gotten my lunch in the cafeteria if my sholder wasnt grabbed.
"And where might you be going? I promised your friend i would make sure you sleep until the final bell rings."
"Hungery."
"We have food in here."
"Too bad." I left and when i found Mika, i was pissed.
"Have fun?"
"How many times do i have to say im fine sleeping in class to get you to leave my sleeping schedual alone?!"
"Until you actually start to sleep at home."
"Have you met my family? My mom and my eldest younger sister are lucky they dont have to share a room with the twins, Mina and Mako. I do. And the twins and Mina think its funny to to tackle me and use me as a jungle gym."
"Yes i have met them and they are a lively bunch huh? How many jobs you up to now because your mom is being a lazy bitch?"
"Three after school jobs, one after another until the weekend. Then i have to deal with my siblings full time..." Im still half dead.
"Whats the new job you have?"
"Being a waiter at a hostess club..."
"Ouch." I smacked her to give her a reason to say ouch.
After lunch, she ended up dragging me back to the health room even though i was trying so hard to get her to let me go.
"Want to go lay down again?"
"No. Now let me go back to class god dalm it!"
"A promise is a promise." He gave me more of those gummy things and i spat them out. "Your making this harder on yourself you know..." I kicked him in the stomach and he was out.
"Whats his deal?!"
"You may not believe me but there is reason to his madness. Since his mom died of sickness dispite his dad running many many advanced medical centers, he promised to his family he wont let any other family suffer like he did. He actually does have classes but he ditches just to help out around here. He basically took over. Well at least i still get payed."
"What classes?"
"Near college level math, science and literature, Fine arts, advanced english, french and german, and the one class he actually sometimes goes to, sports medicine. Hes pretty dedicated to helping people out." I then noticed that the girl from before was sleeping.
"Whats his name anyway?"
"Yakuhin Kimoru. He answers to his first name, last name, Yaku, and Kimo."
"And why does he keep forcing those gummy things down my throat."
"You havent been sleeping at night and hes willing to do a lot of things most doctors arent so he can get more patients cured. Why girls try to fake injuries. They just love him." He then sat up. "And hes alive!" Hes pissed at me now.
"Can i do what i need to do to keep him down?"
"Do what you must." He got on the bed after grabbing a randome amount of the gummy things and put them in his mouth and grabbed my arms and forced them against the bed and put a lot of force onto my hips.
"Get o-" he connected our mouth again and managed to force those things down my throat again.
"Why must you be so difficult when you could avoid it by just being willing?" He got off the bed and i washed my mouth out again.
When i finally got home, dinner was done and as soon as i sat down, i was jumped on by Kira and Maka. I have no strength to even hold myself up anymore...
"Mommy! Mommy! Brother is dead!" They cried. She gave Mako to Luka, the eldest girl, and came to see. She pulled me up and felt my forhead.
"No fever..."
"Isnt this like when dad gave him melatonin to get him to sleep faster?" Luka asked. Shes the only one of my younger siblings who knows about that incident. I ended up just like this.
"In case it is, you are staying home and taking the day off of work. Tomarrow i will call you in sick."
"I can still go to school and go to work..."
"Then try walking to the couch." I stood up and after one step, i face planted. "Your staying home." She helped me up.
"Kira, Maka, Nino, dont wake your brother up and Luka. Mako is in our room tonight." What mom says is final so they all nodded. "And if you do end up going to school, im calling the nurse in the morning to make sure you spend the day in there."
"Im not going to step foot into that office even if my life depends on it!"
"Then i will have Mika call me if she does see you at school and i will have her drag you if she has to. Good night." She left and i grabbed my bag and decided to get to work on the homework i missed receiving. "You better not be trying to over work yourself!" Sometimes i wonder why she and dad couldnt have stopped with Luka, kid wise... I wont get to sleep anyway because Luka will end up bringing Mako to me the second he starts to fuss anyway... I soon fell asleep and woke up when i heard mako crying. I opened up the door as soon as i heard Luka knock. She was trying to get him to stop crying.
"You do know that when im off to college, you will end up taking care of mako and doing the day care run too ya know."
"I know. Ive been trying for a bit but he wont stop fussing." Shes only three years younger than me... I took Mako from her and rubbed my finger against the side of his mouth to see if hes hungery. And he was.
"Did mom feed him and is he just being hungery or what?"
"He didnt eat much."
"Mako... Why must you make things difficult for big brother?" I asked him and got him some of his baby food and fed him.
"How did you know he was hungery?"
"Same trick works for all babies. Softly rub by their mouths and they turn to try to eat your finger, they are hungery. If they dont react, put them over your sholder and pat their backs to see if they need to puke something bad up or need to burp. That dont work, check to see if they are wet or need a diaper change. If not, then they need confort from a bad dream. And when checking to see if they need to burp, put a towle on you sholder or your shirt will need to be washed." And he puked. He just likes to be difficult doesnt he? He then laughed. "Sometimes i really hate you Mako..." I stated as i cleaned him up.
"Apparently unless when dealing with Mako." I picked him up and gave him to mom.
"Did Luka wake you up?" She asked me.
"Yeah. And why must Mako be difficult..."
"You were the same way. Go back to bed..." Sometimes, i really with it was just me, Luka, mom and dad... The younger four take joy out of messing with me...
