Brynn Rawlings

The tension of what happened last night still is there. My dad just does not understand what I do. Everyone appreciates the benefits that come with my actions. If I didn't do what I did to save Kenji's daughter, then I wouldn't be the person I am today. Something will always feel like something is missing, and off. Korin and I took a morning swim since my mom, both grandma's and Aki are cooking.

Ichiro and Aki Jabami are the head of the Jabami family. There are three branches from the Jabami family, and that is the Isobami, Monobami, and Batsubami. There are at least 12 of us that control some of the bigger enterprises, and the Jabami's entrusted me to handle the underground business. After a couple of tests when I was younger, it determined if I was capable of doing it. These tested to see if I was emotionally connected to killing people. When I did these tests I always switched to Hermes, and did everything with grace.

There is no doubt that someone in the family is jealous that an outsider of the family is holding a rank persay. But they have seen my work so I don't think anyone would protest it. After some time passed, Aki, my mom and both my grandma's finished cooking. We all set the table and started making our plates. I made Korin's before mine because she has been complaining for quite some time that she was hungry. Knowing the lovely women that cooked this food let her be the taste tester. My mom and dad both sat at the opposite ends of the table, and I sat on the right hand side of my mom. I haven't spoken to my dad all day, and probably will not for a little while.

The only sounds that are being made is forks scraping the bottom of the plates, glasses being placed on the table, and cups being refilled. I look to my left seeing Korin stuffing her face with chicken thighs.

"Slow down Rin, it's not running away from you."I said as she scooped some of my mom's mom baked beans in her mouth. Actually I would be doing the same thing because they are sweet, and our favorite. I hope she made a pan of it for use.

"How have you guys been?" Aki asked us.

"Well this little trouble makes here smack a little boy with her lunch tray. The boy's mother went ballistic seeing her son with a bloody nose and a black eye. Other than that and some other things everything has been good." I said leaning over kissing Korin's head.

"What Korin ! You can't do that to somebody!" My dad yelled at Korin. She started looking down slowly eating.

"Hey, first do not yell at her. I'm Korin's parent, not you. Secondly, I handle it already, so you have no room to even yell at her." I can see Korin visibly upset. Korin gently pulled on my pants legs making me sit down. I calmed down only for Korin's sake because if it wasn't for her I would have lashed out.

"Anthony, she is an adult, and a parent. You really don't have a place to be yelling at Korin." His mom said to him.

"Well whatever he did baby, he must have deserved it." My mom's mom said.

"I just don't get it Brynn. You didn't have a hard up bringing.You do not have to resort to the work you, but yet you do it.You weren't raised to be this way. I'm..."

"Come kids, bring ya plates." Both of my grandparents took Korin and my younger siblings out of the dining room.

"Your what huh? Disappointed in me. That's fine to be honest, I'm not seeking your approval for anything." I said putting my knife and fork down.

"Brynn, you're not one of my children because none of them will do shit that you are doing." I looked at my dad with not one ounce of love.

"You know what, everyone can pack their shit up and leave this house. I'm selling it." I said angrily.

"Hermès ." My mom gasped placing her hand on my shoulder."

"No, I haven't switched. Since the money I made to put my family in a lovely home and everything isn't appreciated by the so called damn of the house, then find somewhere else to live then. Are you just jealous and upset Anthony that the only way you are even in the position you are in is because of me. That what I did really provided for the family that you have ever done. Since I am no longer your child, you can get out of MY HOUSE. Nobody is going to be living here now, and I mean every single word I have said. I am tired of this bullshit. It's my life, you have no business trying to get me out of what I choose to do, and no business talking to MY daughter like she is your own." I pushed my chair back so hard it actually it the wall and broke.

No POV

As everything went down, Brynn did switch to Hermes. Even though Brynn means every single word, doesn't mean that Hermes agreed with everything. Hermes doesn't want to put the entire family out of the house that she not only bought, but actually designed. Since Brynn has now switched to Hermes, she wants to get the mission that was set earlier done with.

"Poppa, are you okay?" Korin said walking into their shared room slowly. Hermès /Brynn both think she is still kind of upset. She tilted her head seeing that Hermès /Brynn eyes has changed. "So your the other person that comes out."

Hermès shook her head smiling. She must have known about her for a while. "How do you know?"

"I'm not stupid duh." Korin said, rolling her eyes and smiling. "And your totally not normal at all."

"You only say that is because I like to wear suits." Hermès laughed.

"Like a weirdo." Hermès picked her up and tossed the 52 pound girl in the air like it's nothing.

"But you share DNA with this weirdo. So I guess for a smart young lady that I raised you to be has noticed some signs." For Korin this wasn't the first time she knew that Brynn switched to Hermès. She would normally just ignore it because that meant business what about to happen.

"Yep, like how you keep a shotgun above the bed, a weapon locker in your office. The code is my birthday which was predictable. When you're not poppa you like to wear fancy suits, which I want some too, and your eyes change. Oh and so does your voice too." Hermès stood there holding Korin shocked. Brynn was shocked also by the reveal.

Italic = Brynn speaking inside her head

"What the entire fuck. I thought she didn't know." Brynn said in her mind.

"Well damn." Hermes said lowly. "What else do you know?"

"You have a crush on Luna's mom, but you just don't want to admit it yet."

Hermes looked at her stunned, and mentally face palmed herself.

"Don't worry, me and Luna are gonna help you two connect." Korin kisses her cheek before getting down.

"Am I that bad at talking to women." Hermès asked Korin.

"Yes." Hermes heard more voices along with Korin's. She turned around to see Aki, Yumeko, and my mom walk in the room.

"Such a boost in confidence." Hermes rolled her eyes going to the closet and pulled out a black suit.

"Are you really kicking your family out the house that you designed for them?" Yumeko asked.

Yumeko is just like Brynn with a different side,but she has three. Yumi is actually her little that loves to come out around Brynn, and Rose is pretty much like Hermes. The difference between Rose and Hermes is that Rose seduces the men to her advantage.

"Brynn is set on it, but I'm not." Acknowledging that she indeed switched. "I want to say she said that out of anger, but I highly doubt that. I, on the other hand, oppose it. I think for the remainder of this vacation I will be the out. I think it's best for everybody. Nobody has to leave though just let Brynn cool down and we would have to sit down and discuss this like adults."

"If that will ever happen"

A little mini affair with Hermès and Rose perhaps?
