What most people considered hard times was not even close in comparison to what he had been through. At least, that's what he thought. Or, maybe that's what most people thought when they've been through Hell and back. The whole world is out to get me, nothing goes my way and everyone has it better than me-or something like that.
Four years ago, mother had passed away shortly after birthing her sixth child. To only make things worse, father went soon after-the stress and depression from the loss of his wife being too much for him to take. Or, like the second son would say, "He died of a broken heart." Which wasn't suprising seeing how close those two were; but Hell, raising five of the probably most wild kids and having another one on the way can make anyone stick together.
Osomatsu knew that for a fact. Well, except for having a kid on the way part, obviously.
Once mom passed away, Osomatsu who was currently twenty-one and Karamatsu who is nineteen, helped their father as much as they could with the new baby Todomatsu and the other three kids: Choromatsu, Ichimatsu, and Jyushimatsu.
Choromatsu was the third eldest, only fifteen years old and currently in ninth grade. He was also part of his school's band, playing the clarinet. He liked to think of himself as the most responsible of his brothers-even the two eldest. Although, he wasn't much different from them all at all.
Ichimatsu the forth son and was eleven. Unlike the others brothers, he liked to keep to himself unless he was needed. That being said, he didnt partake in any extra calculator activities at school.
Jyushimatsu was the fifth son, only seven years old and in the second grade. He was playing on their school's peewee baseball team and was very athletic. He was usually always smiling despite some of the harsh remarks thrown at him or his family.
And the new baby, Todomatsu, was now four years old. Not much of a baby anymore, but a very curious child that was still learning the basics of what life had to offer.
More than a handful for the two oldest, but they made it work. It was expecially nice that Choromatsu had matured since their parents passed and helped out whenever he could with his younger siblings, but Osomatsu and Karamatsu were responsible for keeping the roof over everyone's head and making sure everyone was feed.
..And they were currently both unemployed.
