Hypnosis Mic: Her Key

Nostalgia

"Saburo... kun?" Ai called.

"Eh?" Saburo looks up with his confused face. Realized calling his came out of loud, Ai covered her mouth and cursed herself. Her eyes became red too snd tears already wanted to flow down on her cheeks. She turned her head to the other side and wipe them.

"What did you say?" Saburo asked. Ai felt relief that he didn't hear her calling his name. Ai bend down next to him, "Are you okay? I think you have a fever." Ai touched Saburo's forehead without asking first. She checked his temperature by touch his forehead with hers. Saburo widened his eyes. His mouth was moving, trying to say something but nothing came out. His face became redder and when Ai pulled her head back, she became panicked, "Oh my! You definitely have a fever. Your face is so red!" She exclaimed. Saburo eh-ed and then waving his hands in front of his face, "Nothing! I'm healthy! I'm just sweating because I ran until just now."

"You're sweating!?" Ai stood up. He definitely has a fever now. Even if it's a light one. Ai narrowed her brows, "Young boy shouldn't go outside when he has a cold. I'll take you back to your home, please take a rest." Ai tried to pull Saburo up now. His body became warmer than before. She has to treat him as soon as possible.

"Not home!" Saburo yelled. Ai stopped in shock. "Why?" She asked gently, knowing from his tone, he really doesn't want to come back. Did something happen? Saburo looks away and Ai bend down again, still holding his hand. "Look, I'm a stranger. So you might want to talk to me. You'll become easy at least." Saburo peek at Ai's face and she smiled. How cute my little brother is, is what makes her smile brightly. Saburo sighed and then told her that he had a fight with his brother because his brother seems to be so busy about something and he was so worried. His brother even abandoned Saburo and Jiro. Ai blinked. That brocon, abandoned my cute little brothers? No way. Ai patted Saburo's shoulder, "Why you said he abandoned you?"

"When I asked if his job is more important than our promise to spend time together, he said yes..." That's it. Ai snapped inside her head. Why Ichiro said that?! What kind of job is more important than his cute siblings!? Unbelievable! Ai gritted her teeth in anger. Black aura surrounding her body and her eyes became red in anger, like a demon. Saburo backed a little. "oh, sorry." Then Ai back to her usual face.

"Okay, listen. I don't think he said that from his heart. He might be so stressed and gets emotional easily recently. Are your brother recently overworked or something?" Saburo looks away. Ai got him. Ai giggled, three of them really easy to read. But then she silent, oh she is too, she remembered.

"You were just snapped out, and said something horrible to your brother. And now you feel guilty and to embarrassed to come back because of your words. True?" Saburo sighed and now looks at Ai's eyes, "Oneesan, why do you know?" Without telling him, Ai just smiled and pulled him again. This time Saburo stood up, even if he's a little wobbling.

"Now! I'll lead you to your home. Go apologize to your brother. You are still young, don't try to be an adult quickly. A child job is for go into troubled matters, grasp a solution and apologizes if they did any bad deeds. " Saburo smiled but then whispered, "I think oneesan is still a child too..." fortunately, Ai didn't hear it. She turned and asked him what he just said and Saburo just shook his head. The sun began to peek from clouds and rain stops. They walked to the nearest station and went to Saburo's house.

"Uhm, seems like they aren't at home right now." Ai put Saburo's weak body on the sofa in the living room. Ichiro did clean this house often... Ai looks around and smiled. But then Saburo's heavy breathe made her back and she soon looks around, searching for a towel, ice and a bucket of water.
"I'm sorry, neesan. I'll just sleep here, you can leave me alone. I don't want to burden a stranger like you." Saburo tried to act strong, but his temperature gets very hot when Ai puts her hand on his forehead. Idiot, how can she leave her sick little brother alone? Shr sighed and checking the refrigerator. Luckily they had enough ingredients to cook a soup. Ai turned at Saburo and smiled, maybe she should cook mother's special soup when she got sick in childhood.
