Running out of time
My mother rung the doorbell and Akari's mother answered. "Oh hello Mikan. Your son was in need of help and doesn't want to go back home but-""Oh my precious little boy!" In that moment, I was attacked by a hug. I could hear Akari laughing at me but I didn't care, for he had seen my mother worry on the regular. "Kuu-chan…what happened to your arm?" "Its alright, Mrs. Wanijima took care of it for me. I'll just have to wear this bandage for a while, that's all." I looked away and Akari put a reassuring hand on my shoulder as he nodded. I sighed and looked into my mother's eyes. "Where's Fana?" She pinched my cheeks at this question. "So you're worried about your baby sister are you?" I didn't comment on that but instead I just grabbed her shoulders firmly. "Fana and I are going to stay over Uncle Allen's house. Mom, please don't ask anymore than that. I just have to take a break from THIS. Im sorry but you need to get away too." In response all I got were wide eyes. "Honey...you're scaring me, what are you talking about?" I let her go. So she hasn't noticed? Why is she so dense when it comes to my father? Why wont she ever suspect him to do anything wrong? I tensed up at her reaction and sighed once more. "Listen…where is Fana? Just sent the both of us away for a while. I have issues mom and being away from HERE is the best way to cope." "Honey, what's wrong? I don't understand what all this is coming from." At this moment Mrs. Wanijima stepped up to the plate and agreed with what I was saying although she had absolutely no idea what was going on either. "Maybe this is not such a bad idea Mikan. You know, he's been having trouble in school and he's in that teenager, so I think he needs to resolve things." Im running out of time, I've been wasting it. Im never going to escape at this rate… Kyuri, what do you think of all this? Nothing. But do you require my help? Yes. Please Kyuri, I need all the help I can get without blowing this out of proportion. Why don't you tell your mother? Because…it would break her heart to find out her husband was molesting his own son. You have perfect opportunities to run away, why not take them? I can't just leave my mother and little sister behind with HIM. I would end up regretting it for the rest of my life. I need a plan. I have the brains but with my financial situation…im not going to make it.I felt a light punch on the jaw and someone was calling my name. "Dude." Blue hair found its way through my peripheral as Akari peeked next to my face from behind the couch. "Its nothing, im fine" There was an awkward silence until my mother broke it with a submitting growl. "I have absolutely no idea what this is about but I guess I could give Allen a call."
