"get out of my way."
you are chuuya's younger sister. do you expect to get praised by everyone knowing that your brother's ability was fascinating?
of course, but in reality, it's the opposite. "i don't get you, honestly." chuuya said, leaving your room.
"am i worthless?" you asked your brother, hoping for a reply. but you heard no words.
it's not the praise of the crowd you wanted, it's the love of your own sibling you desired. every single day would make you nearly disoriented.
ever since he joined port mafia, he never looked at you in the eye. sure, he would speak a few words and leave. unlike before, he'd do everything to protect you.
you rushed out of your room and you were greeted with chuuya about to leave home again. "what do you want now?" he asked.
you stared at him, hoping he'd look at you the way he did before. but instead, he just headed out.
"i'm in a relationship with dazai." you lied, freezing him completely. "you're in a what?" the ground below him starts to crack.
dazai is his current partner. you met him once when someone tried to assassinate you in your previous home.
you were asleep, while dazai and chuuya were protecting you at 2:25 AM. you could never thank them enough.
this was what you wanted, this is what you desired. chuuya looked at your eyes once again. "repeat those words. again." he threatened you.
of course, you weren't scared. this was your brother after all, he could never hurt you, physically.
"i was lying, i just needed to talk to you—" the door shut, chuuya leaving you behind.
damn, what a brother.
NEXT DAY
"wake up, you liar."
brother, you again.
"look chuuya, i just wanted our bond to be strong again. i can't explain myself, really. i just woke up." you laughed. you just wanted to get more sleep. after all, everything felt useless.
you are never going to be useful.
"that made me sad, brother. but who cares anyway— get your hat off my face." you tried to yell. every single day felt so tiring, sleep is important for a weakling like you.
a weakling.
"get out of my room." you open your eyes, just to see your brother and his partner. dazai.
dazai. why the heck is he here?
you widened your eyes in shock followed by dazai winking at you, approaching you slowly. "i heard what you told chuuya yesterday." he smirked.
you glared at chuuya, who had no expression at all. "i don't talk to you that much, but i won't allow you to interact with this disgusting fool." chuuya said.
"that was a lie." you told the both, but nothing seemed to change their thoughts.
dazai smiled, staring at you with those gorgeous eyes. "not anymore. from now on, you're my girlfriend!"
as expected, chuuya tried to beat his partner up. he tried to punch him every second.
he tried.
"shut up, dazai. i'm not intereste—"
he kissed you, right in front of your sibling, his partner.
his lips were soft. his kisses were gentle. but he was holding you tight so you wouldn't escape.
it felt good, it felt really good because you wanted more.
but you felt something entering your mouth.
a pill.
"would you like to attempt a double suici—" at that moment, chuuya knocked him out unconscious.
you spitted the pill out of course.
chuuya, of course. being the brother he is, he left again.
but with a few words.
"if ever he hurts you, tell me."
now you got the two things you desired. chuuya's love for you as a brother, and dazai himself.
