Last Breath (Sei's Story)

Chapter Six

Two Hours Later

After their date, Rei tells Shiori to come back to the house with him for dinner. While they are waiting for their father to come home Rei, Sei and Shiori jump in the pool. Unfortunately, Sei didn't feel like he wanted to have fun and told his brother that he was just going to swim laps.

"Suit yourself," Rei said.

Sei hears Rei and Shiori laughing away and starts to feel jealous.

"There we go.... I've got control now.... Just one more lap," he thought. He starts swimming faster. "Nothing's wrong......nothing's wrong......they're not there....make it all go away......"

"Awww man.... you swam into me!!" Rei said.

"Sorry bro. Didn't mean to. You know what, I think I'm gonna go back inside and leave you two lovebirds." Sei gets out of the pool.

"Hey man, Sonoko's home. You gonna be alright?"

"Yeah man.....Thanks for reminding me." Sei said.

As he walked in he sees Sonoko pour herself a drink. He tries to avoid her but was not successful.

"How's that little slut of yours, huh, Sei? Older brother Rei steal her from you?" Sonoko grabs Sei's arms.

"What's it to you?" Sei says. "It's not like you give a fuck."

"I don't Sei, but I know you do." Sonoko laughs and takes another sip.

"You're drunk." he scoffed.

"Don't tell me what to do Sei. Remember the last time?"

"How can I forget? Don't embarass me while she's here. You wouldn't want to get caught now, would you?"

"Awww poor baby. You know what? Let's do something else then. How 'bout a kiss, little Sei? I heard you were good." She tries to kiss Sei but he pushes her away.

"Ugh....You don't know what you want. What you need is some help, and fast." Sei said.

"Little Sei, baby, you're not so stable yourself. Maybe you should come with me." she replied.

"No thanks. I'm not in such a desperate situation as you are." He leaves her and walks up to his room.

"Oh honey but you are...." Sonoko whispered. "It's about time you realized it."
