"Hmm? Kunikida-san, I think you should follow Samu-nii today. He might do something stupid again. I'll visit you guys later. Gotta go! Bye!" I quickly exited the room before Kunikida-san could even ask me what my warning was all about. Subconsciously, my ability suddenly activated, but it was not evident to anyone who was not paying attention. I could not say my goodbye to my brother because Osamu-nii was with the President being briefed about their mission. I had nothing to do with it, so I left and decided to go to school early.

I was nearing my school when I felt my phone rang. It was Osamu-nii texting me good luck. Smiling, I closed it and listened to my classmates chatter with how their day started. Soon, the teacher arrived, and it was another day of learning for me.

5:12 P.M.
Port River

I was walking home from school when I passed by a teenager. He was just lying on the floor, debating on something. A lot of people had already passed by, and I was about to as well if it was not for a familiar figure floating down the stream. It was my suicidal brother. Sighing, I walked away from my post and was about to get him out when the teenager rose from his position and saved him instead.

"That was brave of him. I should thank that person later." I grinned. Soon, they were out of the water, and Osamu-nii looked like he just rose from the dead. He clicked his tongue in irritation after finding out that he was saved by the white-haired teen.

"I was trying to commit suicide and you got in the way. Just great. Well, my goal is a clean suicide without bothering anyone, but I guess I bothered you instead." He monologued. Just then, a loud growl echoed, and it came from the white-haired guy. He must had been very hungry. Poor guy.

"You're hungry, huh?" Osamu-nii said. Whitey, let us call him that, told him that he has not eaten anything since yesterday. It was really a pity. My brother offered him to food, but he had lost his money.

'He was hopeless.' I decided to step in and invite them to food. He gave me my weekly allowance two days ago, and I could not just neglect the poor boy. A few bowls would probably suffice.

"Samu-nii. I was right to find you here." I faked an act. He rose a brow at me.

"But you've been there for some time now, Hina." He smirked. I pouted and berated him for his suicidal acts. Sighing, I turned to Whitey who was looking at me weirdly. He did not have to.

"I'm Hina. It's nice to meet you. My brother offered you food, right? Don't worry, I'll shoulder it. Samu-nii is really a clutz. You are?" I asked. Flustered, he told us his name but was interrupted when a loud shout echoed across the river.

'Geez, how could his voice reach across here? Kunikida-san is going to scold Samu-nii again for hours.' I thought. He speedrun towards our location and shouted at him. I stopped the two from further discussion and turned to Whitey.

"I'm Nakajima Atsushi." He said.

Osamu-nii suddenly popped from behind me and told me that Kunikida-san will be the one to pay for our dinner. I rose my eyebrow at that. He was burdening his partner again.

"Oi, Dazai! Don't you dare use my money to feed strangers!" He retorted. Osamu-nii just shrugged his shoulder and turned to Atsushi.

"Dazai?" He repeated. My brother nodded and told him his full name.

"I'm Dazai Osamu. It's nice to meet you, Atsushi-kun." The wind gave him a dramatic blow. To be honest, he did look handsome with the sun shining on his figure. I turned around and walked up.

"It's almost dinner. Let's go, Samu-nii, Atsushi and Kunikida-san." I uttered. They followed me to a familiar restaurant and Whitey, I will keep calling him that, ordered about 30 or more bowls of Chazuke. It was adorable to see him eat like a squirrel. I tried to hide my laughter, but Osamu-nii would often glance at me.
