Chapter 1
The clouds were dark grey. Rain was pouring down. The sky was crying. Sad atmosphere afflicted the Hamada brothers. Silence and loneliness accompanied them.
Kasumi Takachiho, their beloved aunt Cass. Their guardian. Their mother figure after the death of their parents when they were still little. The sweetest woman with a deep care for them. The only family relative they had, now buried six feet below.
She died.
A week ago, she went to a cooking competition near San Fransokyo Beach. They couldn't go with her because they needed to run the café. She won the first place. Sending them a photo of her with the golden trophy in her hands before she went back home.
The siblings had the uneasy feeling somehow, but tried to ignored it. But it grew up after five hours waiting. It should only take three hours of driving from the beach to their home. Anxiety was haunting them as they couldn't reach her phone. Suddenly, there was a phone call. Tadashi rushed down to get the phone, hoping it was their aunt who called them.
Hiro was waiting in their room. He was looking down the street, searching for aunt Cass's truck until he heard something fell down at downstairs. He stood up and walked to the living room. He saw Tadashi, sitting limply on the floor with the phone still in his hands. He heard him sobbing and approached him with anxiety, asking if there was something wrong.
"Tadashi? Are you crying? What's wrong? And who called us earlier?"
Tadashi's sobs became louder. He let go the phone in his hand and pulled his little brother in a really tight hug. "Aunt Cass. She died, Hiro."
Hiro's eyes widened in shock and disbelief. He was trembling so hard. His eyes became blurry. "No. No! You're joking, right?! Tell me that you're joking!" Hiro said loudly, still in Tadashi's arm. "It's not a joke, Hiro. The police who called us earlier. She died, in a car accident. She is in the hospital now. I, I, I can't believe she uuhh-" Tadashi couldn't finished his words as he started crying so hard and loud. Tightening his hug on Hiro's body.
Hiro started to cry, too. He couldn't believe it. Their aunt, the only family relative they had, was now gone. Five hours ago, she was smiling in her photo. Saying that she would come home soon and celebrate her winning in the competition. But now, she would never come back home again. They were left all alone, as a family of two.
The next day, they held her funeral. It was really hard for them. But they must have done it so she could finally rest in peace. Together, with their parents in heaven. After the funeral, they went back to their home. The gang also came with them. They felt so sad for the siblings for losing their only family relative and mother figure. Aunt Cass was a lovely person to them and they couldn't believe that she was gone.
They looked at the siblings before they went home. Hiro still gave responses to them though he looked really depressed. But they were worried with Tadashi the most. Since they got back to the house, Tadashi only sat down limply on the couch. Not moving a single finger at all. His eyes were hollow. As if his soul was out to somewhere, leaving his body in emptiness.
Hiro reassured them that he was okay, they were both okay. And they just needed a quite sometimes alone to calm down and adjusted themselves after losing their beloved aunt. They told Hiro to call them if they need anything or there is something wrong. They would be more than glad to come there and help them. He smiled and said thank you to them, and they left.
It's been a week since the funeral, now. Hiro tried to adjust himself after the lost. But he felt so sad and worried for his older brother. He only laid down on his bed since that night after the funeral. Not moving from the bed if it wasn't for his need to use the bathroom. He barely eat anything. He ate a few times but only three bites and a gulp of water, then went straight back to his bed.
He was not even talking to Hiro. No responses every time Hiro tried to talk to him. Hiro sighed. Not only he felt depressed by losing aunt Cass, but he felt like he was starting to lose his older brother as well. He cried every night, wishing to the stars above so Tadashi would come back to his usual self. Hugging him tight in his arms, and reassuring him that everything would be alright.
The next day, Hiro told Tadashi that he would go out for a while to buy some groceries. And still no response from him. Hiro flashed a sad look to him before he went out. Hoping it was okay to leave him alone while buying some groceries as the fridge was almost empty that day.
Tadashi still looked hollow. His eyes were staring blankly at the cloudy sky through his window. He felt so alone, so lonely, so empty. The last time he felt that way was when they lost their parents 11 years ago. He cried for days with Hiro in his arms. And then, aunt Cass came and took care of them under her wings. He felt so happy that he and his baby brother still had an aunt, and another chance to have a family.
But now, she was gone. And the sky still looked sad, too. He suddenly wanted to go outside. Then, he changed his clothes and went out. He walked out weakly. Going nowhere as he didn't have a place to go in mind. He walked and walked. Till the sun was about to set with the orange coloured sky above.
He was standing on the edge of a bridge. Looking down on the river below. The water somehow reminded him of his parents and aunt Cass. The memories of them since he was little and till the last time before aunt Cass went to the competition were flowing in his mind. He smiled weakly while remembering those sweet memories.
He looked at the sky. Sadness came again, embracing him so tight that made his heart clutched. He closed his eyes and let out a heavy sigh. 'I want to meet them again. I want to reunite with them again. I don't want to feel so alone like this again,' he thought.
He brought his head down. He opened his eyes and saw a flash of his parents and aunt Cass in the river. They were smiling at him. Smiling with their gentle smiles. He smiled at them. He was feeling happy that he saw his family down there. He closed his eyes with his smiled still on his face. He muttered something with a soft low voice as he was ready to jump.
"Mom, dad, aunt Cass. I'm coming."
Author's Note: Hahahahaha, another story from me. And I just made this while mid-terms are still haunting me, lol. I still have so many new stories that I really want to write. But I guess, it will be better to focus on "False Angel Project" and this one too, first. I'm still feeling down and depressed with my life now so please don't expect me to not be a cruel author for the time being. Review, please! Until next time~
