A/N: New Faces...New Victims...Part 2

*Hiroshi's Pov*

Later, We arrived back at my apartment before nighttime hit.

Me and Ruri were just talking for a little bit while Manaka was too busy checking out her new nunchucks she brought at Shibuya.

Manaka: Whoo-Hoo! These are awesome!

Me: Don't break anything...

Manaka: Yeah yeah I won't-?!

*SHATTER*

The plate that was used to be on the counter in my kitchen was knocked over and fallen to the ground courtesy of yours truly herself.

Me:......

Manaka: *Chuckles Nervously*

Me: *Coldly* If you want dinner from me. You're paying for that and cleaning the mess up.

Manaka: *Groans*.....

She went over to the pantry to get a broom.

Ruri: Onii-chan...

I looked over at her.

Me: Hmm...?

Ruri was quiet for quite some time which was a little concerning.

Me: Yes?

Ruri: I wish Mom and Dad wouldn't always be so busy...I wish they could spend more time with me...

Me: Ah....

I don't blame her...

There were times I wish my Mom would just come home and spend time with me...but she's not here...

Me: Don't worry too much, Ruri. I'm sure things will get better. They love you and they want the best for you.

Ruri: I know....it's just...

I waited for her to finish her sentence but it seems like she lost in thought.

Ruri: Hiroshi...We're family, right?

Me: If course we're family, what brought this up?

Ruri: It's just that family means nobody gets left behind...but I scared that one day. Mom and Dad might end up...

......

I think it's be best to change the topic here...

Me: So want do you want for dinner?

"Ramen!!!"

Manaka hollered from the other side of the room.

....I wasn't talking to you...

Ruri: Ramen is fine, Onii-chan.

Manaka: See even Ruri agrees with me! Let's cook up some Naruto!

Me: ...Alright.

Manaka: Ha! Dude, I knew you wouldn't say no to her. You see that, Ruri-chan. As long as you're around, I can have whatever I want~!

Manaka: 1 Me: 0.

Me: Don't act like you live here though...

Ruri: I'll cook them!

Me: You sure?

Ruri: Yep! Don't worry Onii-chan! I'm not a kid! I know how to handle this! I can't take care of things myself!

I rolled my eyes. Of course kids her age don't like being treated like well... like a kid because that will for sure piss them off.
