Last Breath (Sei's Story)
Chapter Five
Two weeks later, Sei breaks up with Yuka, but he can't seem to forget what Shiori said. "Grow up and be a man."
"I am a man. The better man Rei will never be," Sei thought. "But first, I need to get over you, Shiori."
He walks down the stairs to find Shiori and Rei at their dinner table. He walks up to them and sits next to his brother.
"Hey bro," Rei smiles at him. Shiori's holding his hand and smiling too mischievously.
"What's up?" Sei asks.
"We're going out. Can't you see? She's my girl." Rei says proudly.
"I can see. Congratulations. I'm happy for you." Sei said. He looks down.
"You don't look it." Rei points out.
" Dude, its not my place wether she chooses you or me, so don't worry."
"Whatever you say, Sei. Wow that rhymes!" Sei rolls his eyes. She continues. "How's you and Yuka by the way?"
"We broke up. Now have a nice day." he get up and leaves.
"I got you where I want you Sei," Shiori thought.
"Hey, did you hear what I said?" Rei asked.
"Sorry babe but no I didn't. What did you say?"
"I'm worried about him," Rei said.
"Honey, don't worry. He just needs to get over himself and forget about me. Now let's get out of here!!" Shiori exclaimed.
Rei takes one more look up the stairs then closes the door.
"I hope you're right Shiori. I hope you're right..." he thought.
