Yoshihiko's POV :

I was lost in my train of thoughts, and I didn't hear anything because of that.

I sat in the living room as I think to myself just random things but with one concept.

Him.

Living room :

I was actually here for hours already, just thinking and thinking about my dear older brother

I was actually here for hours already, just thinking and thinking about my dear older brother.

I didn't know why; but I found it helpful because it kept me occupied for such a long time.

"Yoshihiko, come to the kitchen !!!" A voice yelled. I looked up and replied with a normal 'ok' before walking towards the kitchen.

"Yes ?" I asked him.

"You've been sitting on the couch for a very long time. Are you okay ?" He asked me with worry in his voice.

I just nodded in response as I didn't even bother looking at him.

He looked at me while I just looked at the flowers on the table. It really made me uncomfortable to talk to him ever since the day I had an allergic reaction.

I don't know why, but I dared not to dwell on it for too long as it made me more uncomfortable than it normally would.

He went behind me and patted my head, before hugging me as he began another apology.

I guess the guilt he felt back then never really went away. I feel bad for him, because he keeps dwelling on the mistake that put me in great pain. He didn't like it one bit, I know that.

"You don't have to be sorry, brother. It wasn't your fault, it was just anger." I reassured him.

"But...I still did it. If I hadn't been such a brat then I wouldn't have done that to you. I'm so sorry."

"..."

I remained silent as my older brother hugged me from behind, stating his apologies and promises.

I became numb as I came into a conclusion that I...broke my brother...

Tears then started to come out of my eyes and I soon felt heartbroken because of the fact that I made my brother very guilty.

I never meant for this to happen, as I never wanted to turn things in a very painful state. I too, felt guilty for my past actions...I felt knives stab me a thousand times while thinking of the reason my brother and I ended up like this.

The reason my brother and I ended up BROKEN.

The reason that right here, right now, my brother is crying out for my forgiveness.

The reason why....I felt sick of my own body and mind.

"I'm....so....sorry..." I meekly whispered. I saw him look at me in confusion as tears poured from his brown eyes.

I felt as though I should be the one blamed for my brother's guilt and sorrow. I felt like I was the reason this started.

This all may seem over-dramatic for one allergy scene...but thinking that I caused such a scene because I triggered my brother's temper, made me sick.

(Okay. Why is this happening right now !? It was just one allergic reaction scene...I guess we could all go K-drama sometimes....;-; I feel every cringe I feel everyday [because of myself] when I watch over-dramatic episodes of my favorite shows...)

"Let's stop these tears...Yoshihiko...let's go back to normal..." My brother whispered in my ear.

I nodded and let him carry me once again, to the living room.

He set me on one of the sofas and sat beside me, holding my hand as he did so.

"Let's enjoy the peace and quiet..."

"...okay."

I felt the ending emoji ☝️☝️☝️ actually spoke to the story, saying "Yo, since ya'll so over-dramatic let me end this for you with my emoji."

Yeah...I'm weird.

Anyway, I realized this was such a short chapter, and sounds really rushed, so I'll say this :

I HAD A SEVERE CASE OF STORY BLOCKAGE AGAIN !!! I CAN FEEL ALL THE SYMPTOMS !!!

1. Can't think of the plot
2. Laziness to make the story
3. Makes the story look rushed

SEE !? Anyway, that's all I could give ya'. Sorry for making it very short though. BYEEEE !!!
