Yuki froze. His mind was working agonizingly slow. Gang-raped. Tatsuha. My brother. Club. Spin. Last night. Tatsuha. He was broken out of his shock by a sharp pain in his right foot. He looked down at the cigarette he'd dropped as it continued to burn away and blinked.
Tatsuha. Raped. Kitazawa. He stomped the cigarette out as hard as he could with his bare foot, and looked up. This woman, this doctor, had come to his apartment to tell him that his brother had been raped. No, not just raped. Gang-raped.
Wait.
Yuki glared at the woman. "Where is Tatsuha now?" he demanded. He had to get to the hospital. He had to tell Mika. Oh, gods, Mika. Yuki quickly pushed all thoughts of his sister out of his mind. First, he needed answers.
Dr. Soba's eyes softened as she answered. "He's back in Kyoto."
Yuki paused. "Well, what hospital is he in?"
"He's not in a hospital. He just went home after he asked me for a blood test," she answered.
Yuki stared at her. This woman, this doctor, had just told him that his brother was gang-raped at a club in Tokyo the previous night, but was back in Kyoto the following morning.
What the hell is going on!
"Why would he just go home? Why didn't you keep him there or call one of his relatives?" he demanded. What kind of doctor was she?
"Because, it's an anonymous clinic and Tatsuha didn't want to be admitted to a hospital." Dr. Soba looked away as she answered him.
"Why the fuck not?" Yuki raged. He knew Tatsuha could be stubborn when it came to hospitals, but why would he just leave after being fucking raped? This wasn't making any sense at all!
"Because he doesn't think he was raped!" she exploded at him. Her shoulder slumped, as if in relieved defeat.
Yuki froze again. His mind was reeling. "What the fuck do you mean? You just said he was!" What the fuck is going on!
She fixed him with a weary look. "May I come in? It may take a while to explain."
Yuki bit down the urge to punch her. Who did this bitch think she was? But then he realized that the only way of getting a straight answer would be to do as she said, so he turned and led her into the living room. Dr. Soba sat down on the couch and began to explain.
"I've seen Tatsuha before at the clinic. Like most of our patients, he comes in for free anonymous blood tests. Most teenagers don't want their parents to know if they get an STD, so they come to the clinic to get a prescription." Well, that sounded like Tatsuha. He knew his brother would never tell the old man if he got something like the clap, even if the look on the his face would've been priceless.
"However, this morning, when he came in, he was in a very…disheveled state." At Yuki's glare, she went on to explain, "His hair was a mess, his clothes were rumpled and torn, and he had bruises on various parts of his body.
"At first I thought he had just taken something, but when I asked him about it, he just begged me for a blood test. He wanted to know if he had any STDs, he said."
"What did you do?" Yuki prompted her. Things still weren't adding up.
"I took his blood and told him I'd let him know the results in a few days. Then, I asked him why he wanted to know so badly. He just laughed it off and told me it was nothing, that he'd just gotten a little hot and heavy with a few guys and he didn't use a condom." She replied.
"So, why do you think he was raped?" Yuki really needed a drink. Scotch. No, whiskey. Really, really good whisky.
"Because I may not know Tatsuha all that well, but I do know rape victims. Whenever he came in before, he was always laid back and charming. He wasn't acting like himself this morning, and there was one other thing also." She added. "I know he's not a virgin with women or men and hasn't been for awhile. But, when he got up from the chair after I'd taken his blood for the tests, there was blood in the seat. I tried to confront him, but he wouldn't let me. He just laughed it all off."
Yuki got up. He couldn't take this. How could Tatsuha have gotten himself gang-raped? And why wouldn't he admit that it had happened? He wanted answers, and Eiri Yuki got what he wanted.
"Why did you even come here? You hardly know Tatsuha, and this whole thing is none of your business anyway." He watched the doctor slowly stand up. She walked down the hall to the door, and paused with a hand on the knob.
"I know more about this than you do, Mr. Yuki. I know that a sixteen-year-old boy was hurt terribly last night, and I know that no one seems to care, not even the boy himself. I came here because I spend every day seeing people just like your brother come in beaten and broken and I can never do anything to help any of them. I hope you can help Tatsuha, because I never want to see him come in my clinic looking the way he did ever again." With that said, Dr. Soba opened the door and exited with a quiet, "Thank you for your time."
Yuki stared at the door for a good three and a half minutes before he turned and walked into the bedroom. He emerged a few moments later fully clothed. He grabbed his wallet and keys off the counter, and stormed out the door. He was going to Kyoto.
He wanted answers, and Eiri Yuki got what he wanted.
A/N: Okay, that didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to, but at least it's out of the way, so I can actually get to Tatsuha. It seems like there was nothing but dialogue in this chapter. PLEASE DON'T RUNAWAY, GOOD REVIEWERS!!!!!! I SWEAR THE ANGST WILL GET BETTER. I'm just glad I got the real plot all out there. Tatsuha was raped, he just doesn't realize it since he's so dependant on sex. Well, we'll touch more on that later! (the chapters will get longer too)
PLEASE REVIEW AND I PROMISE I'LL DO BETTER!!!!
