1. The door of misfortune always opens at every beginning
My name is Takahashi Misaki, a sophomore economics student at Mitsuhashi University. My brother returned here to Tokyo already, but due to unexpected turn of events, I continued living here in this luxurious condominium of Usagi-san a.k.a. Usami Akihiko; the super popular novelist and a graduate as the head of the class in Teito Law University. It has been a year since I lived here as a moocher. Our everyday lives lightened a bit since Usami-chichi accepted me to stay beside Usagi-san.
"Usagi-san, I'll be leaving early today for the opening ceremony. I have already prepared your lunch. You can heat it up later. And also remove the foil from the bowl before heating it up."
I wore my shoes and grabbed my bag.
"Misaki," Usagi-san gently called as he grabbed me and kissed me.
My cheeks suddenly felt like it's in heat. We started to get along with each other better since Usami-chichi accepted me. Unconsciously, my everyday life seemed to be happier because of that. What the heck am I even saying?
"Take care,"said Usagi-san said with a warm smile.
It's his usual smile. I like looking at him with that smile. No, no, no. I can't let myself lose to the smile of that ero-novelist!
"I'll be going now," I sluggishly said as I went out.
This condominium is really amazing eh? Even though I have been living here for a year, the interior design of this building still amazes me. I rode the elevator. As I was walking in the gates of Mitsuhashi University, Sumi-senpai was standing by a tree, looking at me.
"How was your vacation Misaki?"
"It was fun because Usagi-san and I went to Osaka."
"I see."
I still feel awkward talking to Sumi-senpai especially every time I mention Usagi-san to him. It's not yet a year since that happened and I'm sure he has not moved on yet though he shows no signs of being sad about it. He looks cool as always. After the ceremony, I straightly went to my class. Sumi-senpai seems to have a different schedule this semester. I sat on my seat. I'm alone again. Don't tell me this is gonna be the continuation of having a school trauma. I wouldn't want to be alone during these 3 years! Someone suddenly entered the room in a flashy manner. He had such a cheerful expression on his face. He seems to be a freshman.
"Amazing! So this is how a normal university's room looks like. I like it!" he exclaimed.
Some of the other students were freaked out by the weirdness of this boy. I suddenly had an eye contact with him and he had a big grin instantly painted on his face. In a blink of an eye, he was suddenly standing in front of me, still with that ridiculous looking smile on his face and bright eyes.
"Uhm, hello my name is Hiroshiko. Can I call you onii-chan?" he asked brightly with starry look in his eyes.
What the…out of the blue, he suddenly asks me a question like that. He's so weird. I don't know anyone one like him…wait…I forgot, Usagi-san is weirder than this boy.
Eggs are so amazing right? They're just so yellow.
I want to eat non-marine octopi.
Yeah, he's really weirder.
"E-eh? Why me?"
"Why you? Because I want it."
I'm sensing a storm on the horizon. Nii-chan, what should I do? There is another weirdo like Usagi-san.
"Is it okay?" he asked in a cheerful manner.
"I don't mind…"
"Really?"
"Yes…"
"Thank you so much onii-chan!" he exclaimed as he pompously clung to me.
Nii-chan, I think I just stuck a pain in the ass. I can't let Usagi-san see him being like this to me because I know what would happen to me if in case. The classes ended, he's still clinging to me. I think it would be good to use the back entrance.
"Will you let go of me?"
"But onii-chan, I like clinging to you. Do you dislike it?" he asked in crying puppy eyes.
"Yes, I dislike it. So please, if you would now. Let go now."
"Onii-chan," he asked in a more pitiful manner.
"Fine. But only until the gate. Okay?"
"Yay! Thank you onii-chan!"
We walked towards the back entrance. As we were walking near the gate, I suddenly saw familiar legs, standing firmly. When I looked up…Usagi-san?
"U-Usagi-san?"
This is bad. Really bad.
"W-what are you doing here?"
"I can't believe it. Why does your brain work in predictably simple ways?"
When he looked on the other man, the one who's clinging to me, Hiroshiko, his eyebrows suddenly flinched in scary manner and started to glare at him.
"U-Usagi-san, this is not how what you think. He's just a freshman."
"What the hell are you doing here Hiroshiko?"
"E-eh? You know him?"
Usagi-san gave a year worth of sigh.
"Akihiko nii-sama. It's been a while. How are you?"
"How are you your face. Why are you clinging like that to Misaki? Get out."
"Eh? Am I not allowed? Misaki onii-chan allowed me to."
"Onii-chan? Why the heck are you calling him onii-chan?"
"Because I like him?"
Usagi-san's aura suddenly became dangerous.
"Let's go home Misaki."
He forcefully pulled me and threw me in his red sports car as he also crept to his seat. Running if is he was in a race, he sped up to I think more than 100 km/hr. He might pay a fine for speeding. It wouldn't be good if he'd have a bad record.
"Usagi-san, could you please drive slowly?"
"Shut up."
As soon as Usagi-san closed the door, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and pinned me firmly on the wall.
"What was that all about?" Usagi-san seriously asked.
"Like I told you, it was nothing. He's just some weird economics freshman. That's all about it. And why are you acting like that again? Don't tell me you're jealous again? That's impossible. He's just some weird kid."
"What if I am?"
Usagi-san is jealous?
"Y-you don't have to be jealous."
"I believe I already told you that I get jealous in everything that comes to you."
"You already said that…But you shouldn't be jealous."
"Why won't I? You always get swept away."
"No I don't! And if we're supposed to be lovers, you should try trusting me a little. Don't you trust me Usagi-san? Being jealous means you don't trust my loyalty."
Usagi-san Suddenly was suddenly shocked. He didn't say or move a few seconds.
"I…do trust you Misaki. Sorry for quibbling something offending," Usagi-san said warmly as he ruffled my hair. I suddenly had a good mood only to find myself secretly wishing Usagi-san would keep his hands there forever.
I think I have said something I shouldn't. I think something worse is about to come.
I don't have a right to meddle? I do have because we're supposed to be lovers, right? You said so yesterday.
I hope he won't say that if in case. He didn't make a move after we argued. It was a peaceful nigh and I had such a good sleep.
"Usagi-san, I'll be going now."
"Take care Misaki," Usagi-san said as he gently ruffled my hair.
As I was walking towards the school building, I saw Hiroshiko waiting by the door. When he saw me, he began waving like an idiot.
"Good morning onii-chan!" Hiroshiko greeted as he clung to me, again.
"G-good morning Hiroshiko-san."
"I missed you so much Misaki onii-chan."
"W-what are you talking about?" I said as I began chuckling like a whimpering dog.
Classes went on. After a break, it was literature. Ah, it's Professor Kamijou again. Seeing him gives me chills already. Hiroshiko was still clinging to me. Professor Kamijou gave us a sharp look. Not good.
"Hiroshiko-kun, get off me please. Professor Kamijou glared at us," I whispered.
"Huh? What did you say Misaki onii-chan?" he loudly asked. All of our classmates suddenly diverted their attention to us with pitiful and scared look in their eyes. The chalk Professor Kamijou was holding suddenly crushed. I suddenly sensed something. Professor suddenly threw a book towards us. I was able to evade.
"You're so irritating! Don't come to my class just to flirt with each other! Get out if you won't listen! You're just gonna be a distraction!"
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry sir! We'll keep quiet."
Professor continued lecturing. He is really so scary. Hiroshiko suddenly kept quiet and sat 10 cm away from me. After 2 hours, the lit class finally ended. Thank goodness. He's really freaking me out. Hiroshiko is still quiet. Maybe he was frightened by professor's strictness.
"Don't worry. It's okay. That's just the way he is."
"I-I'm sorry onii-chan. Because of me, you got into trouble."
"It's really okay."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Thank you so much onii-chan."
We walked until the gate. Usagi-san was waiting there again. When he saw us, his eyebrows flinched a little. He looks pissed off about Hiroshiko.
"Misaki onii-chan, what is your relationship with Akihiko nii-sama?"
"Misaki and I are…" I cut off Usagi-san's answer with a loud whimpering laugh.
"W-what are you talking about Usami-sensei? Ahaha…haha…haha. I'm just a freeloader in his house."
"Oh, is that so?"
Hiroshiko suddenly cupped my right cheek with his left hand and he…he…suddenly…k-kissed me. Usagi-san's eyes suddenly widened with anger. I pushed him off due to instinct.
"W-what are you doing Hiroshiko? That's not a good joke. I'm a man!"
"Eh…I'm not joking. I fell in love with you at first sight."
"Let's go home Misaki!" exclaimed Usagi-san angrily.
Nii-chan, I can't look at Usagi-san right now. Help me nii-chan…
When we came home, Usagi forcefully kissed me. What type of kiss is this? This is not his usual gentle yet fierce kiss. I can't breathe. I tapped Usagi-san's shoulder yet he didn't stop. I tried to pull off but he kept on hugging me tightly.
"U-Usagi-san…I can't…breathe…"
He still continued kissing me with such great force.
"S-stop Usagi-san."
I pushed him with all my strength.
"I already told you to stop! You almost killed me!"
"But he kissed you! You should have listened to me yesterday! I knew this was gonna happen. I know I already promised you I won't be jealous but I can't help it. I want you to be totally mine only."
"I don't want to be a loner Usagi-san. Spare me your rod."
"Besides that, why do you still avoid saying that we're going out? You already said that we're lovers?"
"Of course I would!"
"Why don't you own up to it already. That you have totally fallen for me already."
"Never!"
I started walking towards the room. I don't want to say the real reason. I don't want to cause Usagi-san trouble. Usagi-san was able to catch up and cornered me in the wall as he laid his head on my shoulder.
"Really…I don't understand why you always hide the fact that you're hiding that we're going out. Tell me."
"I don't want to."
Please don't notice that I'm lying. Please, please… I don't want to tarnish you that's why I always avoid that fact. I don't want our relationship to cause you trouble.
"I know that's not the real reason. I won't let you go until you tell me."
I don't want to tell you because I might need to go away if I told you. I don't want to make you worry. Usagi-san gently kissed me. No…I'm getting swept away. I pulled off.
"Two men together really do look weird you know."
"Even so. I'm totally aware of that fact. But I still chose to be with you because my love is greater than my pride. If I would choose between you or my pride, I would totally choose you because you're the first person that ever made me feel how happy it is to be together with someone. Just you being here beside me brings me unimaginable amount of happiness. The thought of being alone, something I've been so used totally terrifies me. That's why when something or someone comes to you; it serves as a deadly threat for me. I don't want to lose you. I can't ever go back to being alone. I changed a lot since I met you Misaki. You have totally changed me."
I never though Usagi-san would say such things…What should I do…I feel so loved by him. He gently kissed me and brought me to his room. I can't resist anymore…
"U-Usagi-san, your hands are kind of different."
"What do you mean Misaki?"
"They're very warm."
"Of course they would be. You have melted the ice in my heart and warmed it so much with your love."
That line suddenly made me so happy. Maybe I really am…madly and helplessly in love with Usagi-san. So much I can't bear it.
The pain. The pleasure. The happiness. They're driving me crazy. Usagi-san made a lot of…love to me. I can't bring myself to call it mess anymore. Maybe because I'm beginning to be soft to Usagi-san because of his earnest feelings.
Usagi-san was drying my hair with a towel.
"Usagi-san, I have something to ask you."
"What is it?"
"Why do you know Hiroshiko?"
"Don't you know his full name?"
"No."
Usagi-san suddenly sighed heavily.
"You knew that I lived in England until I was 10 years old right?"
"Yeah."
"Hiroshiko Usami. He was living there too. And he's the same age as mine."
"E…Eh?"
"That's why I told you to stay away from him. It's just a whim of his behaving like a kid."
Nii-chan…is this another proof that Usa-mones really work on me a lot? Why is it always men? Nii-chan…are Usa-mones a curse…Do I really release some weird kind of pheromone to Usami members? Help me nii-chan!
