Sorry it's short. Enjoy.
Rainy Days
He never did like rainy days. Because he wasn't the type of guy who liked to sit around.

4 – Umbrella Overhead
He wondered around, letting the anger and embedded jealousy stew like a waiting storm. At times like that, it appeared as though it was always Shinya that was favoured, the little brother who always got his way while the elder was blamed.
It just wasn't fair. Though afterwards, when his brother complained of the same unfairness and he had matured enough to listen, he would realise that the same storm brewed in them as well.
In a way, the world wasn't fair. Either that, or the view thereof was unfair.
And the clouds that hung over the world, blocking out the sun.
And the rain as the dams suddenly broke.
He looked up, just as the downpour thundered upon him. 'Great,' he muttered. Now he was going to get soaked and sick as well. 'This is just great.'
Especially since his temper and storm of emotion had dumped him in that particular situation.
But the rain was somewhat soothing, washing away the anger, the jealousy, the unfairness...
Maybe he should go home. Maybe he should let his brother play. Maybe...
He turned a corner and saw his brother, an umbrella protecting him while another in his hands. His umbrella. His brother had come out in the rain to bring it to him.
Shinya flinched away, but he came, and the two met on the rain-soaked pavement, with the single umbrella overhead, blocking out the storm as they made their way back home.
And as the two brothers chased after the newest pixel enemy together, the elder cheering the younger on, the umbrella dripped dry on the grass as the sky brightened.
Until the next time the storm came.
