Luck!
My brother has always told me that I was born with an immense amount of luck. Considering our family, I completely believe him. Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Kumio Saiki. I have pitch black eyes that can freak people out and light brown spikey hair styled like my brother's hair. My brother is Kusuo Saiki. I do have another brother named Kusuke Saiki, but I don't like him much. I'm 10 years old! I love my brother Kusuo very much! My mom as well, Kurumi Saiki since she took care of me along with my dad, Kuniharu Saiki, but she is less annoying. Dad is annoying and depends too much on my brother and occasionally me, despite me being just 10 years old!
"Kumio"
I smile.
"Yes, big brother?"
"Mom is done with dinner"
"On my way"
I ran downstairs.
"Don't run"
I slowed down my running to a walk halfway down the stairs. Once in the dining area, the delicious smell of dinner hit me.
"Smells good mama~" I excitedly sat down at the table next to my brother.
"You are always so sweet Kumi," mom gushed as she placed our dinner on the table.
"How was school?"
" Mind-numbing as usual."
I giggled and glanced at him, noticing a slight smile, then it was gone when mom and dad started fighting again.
"Why can't they just admit that they still love each other geez?"
While our parents fought, I remembered that I won some coffee jelly this morning when I went to the store with mom. I went to the fridge, grabbed it, and gave it to Kusuo for him to try it.
"I won it in a raffle at the store, I know you like sweet things so I saved it for you"
I smile as he took it and looked at it curiously.
"Coffee jelly?"
I nodded.
"Try it, it goes well with milk too"
The moment he put the jelly filled spoon in his mouth, an expression of bliss adorned his face, showing that he is enjoying it and that makes me happy…that is until dad bumped into Kusuo, making him drop the spoonful he was holding, but Kusuo just dives towards the falling piece and eats it before it reached the floor. I sigh.
"This is about to get out of hand"
Dad started pleading with Kusuo for help because mom apparently turned into a demon. I stood aside, watching as she picks up the dining table. And dad, who's on the floor with his hands up in an attempt to protect himself from the soon to be a flying table. Then she throws it…
"Lovely"
I looked at my brother as he stops the table in mid-air, saving dad. Mom looks at him, shocked, and dramatically weeps then shouts that she hates them both. I looked at my brother.
"She doesn't really mean that right?"
He shakes his head and sighs.
"Can't you force them to share each other's thoughts or something"
I saw his eyes widen at my suggestion, then suddenly, mom and dad stopped their passionate argument to question each other's love.
"Good god adults in love are so complicated"
"Couldn't agree more"
They turned to my brother to scold him but then paused and were all lovey-dovey towards each other once again. I sat back down at the table, as my brother went back to enjoy his coffee jelly but that was interrupted when mom just snatched it from his hands to give it to dad as a token of their rekindled love, which made Kusuo angry.
"Please, not the-"
He used his psychic powers to break all the god dammed windows in the house out of anger.
"-windows…"
I groan in frustration and glare at him, then flicked his forehead softly.
"Stop breaking the windows brother!"
My brother's life is full of surprises for me, like the other day mom got a call from the hospital, saying that Kusuo was there because of some sickness which made her panic. I don't blame her for panicking but at least leave a message for whoever returns home and sees you are not there. That day I got home from school and found myself alone. I don't like being alone. Dad also got called and rushed to the hospital. I was temporarily forgotten.
Needless to say, when they got home, I was locked in my room, huddled up in blankets as protection from whatever danger that comes on my bed, so I didn't hear them come home until I suddenly hear running coming from the stairs and then my brother appearing in front of my bed scaring me.
"Dang it brother don't do that!"
I place my hand on my chest over my rapidly beating heart in an attempt to calm it down.
"Sorry"
He looks at me intensely, then there are several knocks on my door.
"Sweetie, please open the door," that's mom speaking.
"We are sorry we left you alone for so long," that's dad speaking.
"You should open the door"
I get up from my bed slowly and open the door. They immediately embrace me, saying sorry over and over again. After that heartwarming moment, and them making sure I was okay, they left the room, leaving my brother and me in the room.
"You have been crying"
I tense up.
"Waa? No!"
I played with the hem on my shirt, embarrassed at being caught crying. I try not to look at him. He gets closer, bends down on one knee in front of me, and hugs me which surprised me. He rarely touches people let alone hug them so of course, I was surprised!
"Sorry for taking so long, it's Nendo's fault"
I hugged him, tightly smiling.
"I'm fine now"
Those displays of affection from him are rare, so I cherish every single one of them.
"but who is Nendo?"
Today we got sent shopping by mom...well more like she sent my brother, I just decided to tag along out of boredom. On the way home, it was peaceful, until the people around us started all looking at something at the same time.
"Wait a minute it's not a thing, it's a girl"
That girl looks way too sparkly and is grabbing the attention of everyone.
"Yikes she is definitely enjoying it"
I shake my head, looking away from her.
"Do we have everything?"
"Yes we do"
"Even your newly acquired sweet treat?"
"I guess we don't have everything yet"
I chuckle when suddenly that sparkly girl appears in front of us, making us stop walking.
"Saiki! Hi! I couldn't help but notice you were sad," she greets my brother.
I look up at him to see if he looked sad.
"No he looks the same to me, girl gets your eyes checked!"
I just stare at her, slowly getting irritated.
"Do you know this girl?"
"She is in my class"
"Ah"
He bows after they stare at each other for a few seconds and we keep walking. She suddenly appears again, but this time my brother dodges her.
"Is she freaking out?"
"She is in the illusion that I think she is invisible to me"
I snicker. Once again she appeared, but this time she tried to hug him. That irritated me.
"Doesn't she know about personal space?!"
Oh, she kept trying relentlessly until my brother suddenly took my hand and teleported to the top of a building. I froze the moment I looked down. I have a huge fear of heights, don't judge me! I clung onto my brother for dear life.
"Please put me back on the ground…"
At this point, my heart was beating rapidly and tears were threatening to fall when we teleported again but this time in front of the house.
"Oh, sweet ground!" I exclaimed in relief hugging the ground.
"Calm down you are acting like dad"
I stick my tongue out at him childishly.
"Oh hush, you know heights scare me!"
He went to open the gate, then I realized something.
"We didn't buy the coffee jelly" I noted aloud looking up at him.
He freezes, the gate opened midway, he sighs.
"I'll go later, come on"
I chuckle.
"Alright"
My brother's life sure is full of surprises. Oh yeah! Those groceries we got, we ended up getting them for free due to being the 50th customer of the day, due to my immense luck!
