Shibuya Station
"Hi Minako." said Ren with a smile starting to grow on his face. Ren felt his heart warmup seeing his older sister who he hasn't seen in over 6 months."
Hi, little brother. Look at you. You passed Minato's height and who knows, you might be able to catch Yu next." said Minako. Ren's eyes soften at the mention of his older brothers. His oldest brother Minato who passed away three years ago from unknown causes, and his other brother Yu who just graduated high school a year ago and is in training to be a detective like his Uncle Dojima. ""Following in your sibling's footsteps and being a transfer student in your second year I see," teased Minako.
"At least you guys were transfer students by choice and not forced by the law. Oh, and weren't on probation," stated Ren.
"Akira, I'm sorry for what happened to you, I'm even more sorry I couldn't have been there for you. If I wasn't overseas with Akihiko for his boxing match I would have been by your side."
"I don't blame you for not being there. You have a family and are across the pacific ocean." Ren said trying to get rid of the guilt his sister was carrying. "Also where is Yuki?"
"Yuki is with Akihiko right now at home in Port Island, She started crying because she found out I was going to see uncle Akira without her but I felt I needed to talk to you alone, Also Yu told me he is getting Naoto to look in your case. The whole thing just… it doesn't feel right." Minako said, trying to comfort Ren.
"Tell Yuki I love her and that I will go visit her soon." Ren's heartstrings were being pulled. It was a weight lifted off his shoulder to know that some part of his family still loved him after all the shit he has been through. Ren was nervous to ask his next question, "S-Sooo you spoke with Yu?"
"Yes, I have and he is worried about you. I told him I was going to see you and he told me to invite you to dinner next week on the 23rd here in Shibuya. Make it please, Rise is coming, Yukari and Mitsuru are coming with their kids. so all we need is you to have the family."
Ren loved seeing Yukari and Mitsuru and their kids. Minato found himself in a strange situation before he died. He somehow got both of them pregnant. And whenever Ren tries to ask Minako about it, she just tells him he did not cheat and not worry about it that Mitsuru and Yukari are still best friends even though it's a strange situation, but The last gift that Minato gave them was their kids. Yukari got the twins. Their son Taichi looked almost exactly like his father with long blue hair and pale complexion but had Yukari's brown eyes and their daughter Kayo had her mom's light brown hair but Minato's steel-blue eyes. It was like a piece of his older brother was still here with them. And Mitsuru also has a son Satoshi. He is also the spitting image of Minato but just the red version. He has bright red hair and brown eyes but sometimes you can see hints of blue in there and we know that blue comes from his dad.
"I will see what I can do. No promises though. I have some stuff going on." Ren said.
Minako gave Ren one of his traditional smirks to him. "Ooooo we got a new girlfriend already? Guess it didn't take long to get over the last one." Minako teased.
"Haha very funny no I don't have a new girlfriend. I don't need a girlfriend while I am out here." Answered Ren.
Minako busted out laughing at the comment made by her little brother. "You do know that all three of your siblings found their significant others while we were all transfer students right?"
"Yea and two of them also got pregnant during High school so I'm not trying to follow all your guys footsteps." Red said teasingly knowing how Minako would respond.
"First of all! I got Pregnant my last couple weeks of highschool! I was almost out of there, Your brother on the other hand decided to have babies during the ending of his 2nd year, so don't follow his example" Minako said trying to defend herself from Akira's teasing.
"Yea yea whatever you say Minako, Ren said while laughing. You guys all left single and came back in a relationship, and All of them are famous too! Yukari is the Pink Phoenix Featherman Ranger, Mitsuru owns the Kirijo group, Akihiko is famous boxer current Light heavyweight champion while we are at it, And Rise is an Idol." said Akira as he facepalmed. "You guys put some ridiculous standards for me."
"You basically dated the Shogi Princess before she got famous, and then, you actually dated Kasumi who might be famous one day if she goes anywhere with her dancing." responded Minako with a laugh. "You are doing just fine when it comes to dating, just find someone who makes you happy, that's really all that matters."
"Yea yea I hear you, BUT, i'm still not going try dating someone while I am out here." Stated Akira.
"Hahaha the funny thing about dating is that the more you look the harder it is to find someone, but when you aren't looking someone always comes into your life." Minako said with a smile on her face remembering how she and Akihiko started dating. She too wasn't looking to date anyone but before she knew it, she fell in love with someone.
"BURN MY DREAD"
Akira gave out a small laugh at that random song that started playing. "Really? That song is still your ringtone after all these years."
Minako rolled her eyes at him as she reached for her phone."First of all its classic, secondly its Akihiko calling. Probably asking where I am. I should get going though, Please make it to dinner. Yu and Rise wanna see you the same with Yukari and Mitsuru." said Minako one last time as she reached and hugged her little brother. "I Love you little brother and please, stay out of trouble."
"I love you too, Text me once you make it home."
Ren made sure to see his sister enter her car and drive off before he started to make his way back to Leblanc to get ready for his talk with Ann tomorrow morning. "Now where is that cat" Akira said to himself before he forgot completely and went home without him.
Shujin Rooftop
It is 15 minutes before the bell rings for Class to begin, Ann is walking up to school rooftops to have a discussion with Ren, "I'm so nervous, I feel my heart is going explode from my chest, I knew I should not have eaten that big of a crepe in the morning." said Ann as she was about to open the door. When she opened the door she saw the Tall ravened hair boy with glasses staring at the sky.
"Hey there" greeted Ann when she closed the door behind her.
"Hey. Sorry for calling you out of blue to come up here so early,especially after yesterday, this all came down pretty suddenly huh?" said Ren as he still looked over the school.
Ann was once again mesmerized by the last sentence he said. Ren finally turned around and looked Ann in her beautiful blue eyes and smiled at her. Ann started to form a blush on her face while the two persona users stared at each other for a bit. "Then you really are Kurusu!"Ann screamed out.
"I'm not Kurusu anymore, I am Amamiya Ren." said Akira with a kinda sad tone in his voice. "I thought changing my name would help me with the rumors but I guess it did not work."
His height, his voice, and even his name is now different Ann thought to herself while she was hearing Ren talk. All this has changed but the boy in front of me now is still the first boy I ever loved. Ann started to close the gap between the two.
"I guess you did not recognize me when we ran into each other in the rain the other day, I figured you would eventually piece together who I was though, even though I thought you would do it a lot sooner than this." Ren said letting out a small laugh. "I recognized you right away though"
Ann's face went a little white in embarrassment with hearing that information "Hey! If you knew it was me you could have said something ya know!You have changed a lot Kurusu" Ann said, complaining to him.
"Like I said I am not Kurusu anymore, I am Ren Amamiya." said Ren in a cold tone. "Well anyway. Want a reunion hug? Cmere" said Ren with max charm
Ann got completely off guard and was turned red once again by Kurusu. "No! I am not doing that and don't say Cmere like that! You become such a playboy." Ann said, clenching her bag to her chest to stop Ren from coming to hug her.
"Oooo right, you think all boys are annoying huh? You always have. I guess you still do." Ren said stopping in his tracks not wanting to make Ann feel uncomfortable.
"Yes. I still find them annoying. I might even hate them now." Ann said with pain in her voice. But… you were different Kurusu." I've always wanted to tell you that Kurusu Ann thought to herself as her and Ren just looked at each other in the eyes for a bit.
Akira was the first one to break and he was now the one to blush by Ann's words, "Really? I see." Akira covered his face with his arm to hide his expressions. " I felt the same way. I… I loved you too" Akira confessed.
Ann felt her face glowing, Those words , those exact words are what she has dreamt about for the past three years, To finally hear how Akira felt about her, to finally find out her feelings were mutual. "The Happiest days of my life… were always those days. With him and Shiho. I can finally go back!" Ann screamed in her head feeling like she was on cloud nine with hearing this news. Too bad it only lasted those 15 seconds.
Akira with his hair in his face so Ann could not see his eyes started to speak," We can't go back to that now,though. Things are not like they were in those days. I am different. You are different. Which means that is in the past." Ren said as he finally looked at Ann in the eyes.
Ann didn't even realize it yet but tears were already coming out of her eyes while she was thinking on how to respond to this information "He is…. Probably telling me to forget about everything." Ann thought to herself. She could not say anything. She just stood there in shock.
"Come on, don't cry we don't have time for that." Ren stated coldy as he walked past her to the door. "We will meet up here again for the business we need to take care of."
Despite the cruelty of his words, There was something lonely about his expression. Ann thought to herself as he walked back into Shujin and left her up there while she soaked all this information in.
