Chapter 8 : a new reason to live


"Clyde is about to rain. We'd better get to the nearest bar. "

"Well ken. I'm coming with you. "

"OK. Let's get on my bike. "

At the bar.

"Ken. I can not resist this. why do not we report all this to the police station. "

"I know clyde but we have to relinquish our anger first."

"for what ? we do not need any more excuses to pity them. "

"I know clyde but anger will not solve this problem so calm yourself. Best we save this video tape to the cloud as proof. We also should not report this to the police so we have to think lincoln feelings too. What they do is inhuman but, if we add gasoline to the fire, the fire will enlarge just like our current can not do as we want clyde. we must have more evidence more than this video. After we collect all the evidence if we can get it, Lincoln has to make a decision between reporting them to the police or anything. We should not interfere in this matter but, we also can not bear to see our friend like this. "

"You're right. We can not do anything we want. But, for now we will save this video for proof. And I think we should make a meeting with his step sisterss. I can not wait any longer. "

Clyde has a point too. What the louds do is unforgivable. Even so, ken and clyde can not just go straight to the police station. This could have a devastating effect on both of them. However, after all these incidents the clyde wanted to speed up his encounter with lincoln step sisters. Indeed, it was the time for his step-sisters knew about what he had been through all this time. Lincoln can not hide this thing all the time. It will only add a burden on his life.

"Okay clyde will I try. Indeed, it's time they know what lincoln is going through. But we must do this without his knowledge. "

"Well ken. I'll wait for news from you. "

"Okay clyde, be patient okay. Before that, was he always be like this when he was in royal woods ?. "

"Yes ken. He's been seen like a monster to be removed in royal woods. Not only his family but almost by everyone in royal woods. "

"What do you mean ?"

"he's been like this since he was little. Beaten, kicked out, teased and bullied. "

"I think it's better, if he does not have to go or visit the royal woods forever clyde."

"I also think like that ken."

"I'll try to call his sister to come to the restaurant across town."

"Why not just around here ken? "

"Because, there is a restaurant across town that has a special room for large families. Maybe that room will be enough for all of us. "

"Okay then call them now."

From lincoln point of view.

"Arghhh ... shit * CRACK *" lincoln said after throwing glass bottles onto the bridge.

After his incident with his family, he goes under the bridge to release all of his anger. he told his step sisters that he could not go home today so he would sleep in his apartment because he had extra work. He says this so his family is not worried to him.

"Shit ... ..ARGHHH!"

Lincoln is very upset and wants to be alone now. he is upset that he hates himself. He considers himself like a doormat and animal in his native family. Being beaten up, spit he thought it was not much and he did not care about it either. He just wants a happy time with his native family but, what he finds is sadness and pain. The wound on his heart is getting larger and can not be healed with money,love or anything .

"Am I too soft?"

"Am I like a doormat that would be trampled on like that?"

Said lincoln while looking into the clouds. he felt lonely. He feels that the world is meaningless again. But, he has the people he loves. One by one, he counts the members of his step family.

"Ava, adelia, alma, ella, audrey, julia, scarlett, sophia, sophie, ivy"

"mother and father"

he looked at his hand with sadness. What he's been doing all this time. He has people who love him and regard him as their own family. Indeed he already has a stepfamily who has been watching over him like a member of their own family but, he still does not forget his real family. All this time, he already felt lonely, he needed someone who cares about him. In the end, he already has people who love him for whatit is. he just did not realize it all because he kept running into his native family. Now, Lincoln has found a reason to get on with life again. he no longer cares about his native family. If one day they know and realize that Lincoln is innocent and not doing anything wrong, he does not want to destroy their lives or anything like that. He has no more feelings towards his native family. They just want lincoln lost from their lives then, lincoln will do that demand. He believes his presence will also not bring any luck to them.

An hour after that. Lincoln looked into the cloud with a wide smile. His world is back shining again. He already has people coloring his day. Therefore, he will live happily for his stepfamily and for his future.

"I already have a new home and this new home is my first step to live a life that is more meaningful again."

After that, he goes to where he works. He works at a gas station near the highway. The reason he worked at the gas station because, every time he applied for a job anywhere, the owner or boss he will immediately show the exit when he mentioned he graduated from kyouka high. Kyouka high is known as a delinquent school because of that, it is difficult to find a job for lincoln. Although he was rejected in many places of work he had a dream as a cryptocurrency miner. He already has good knowledge to run his career as a cryptocurrency miner but he has economic problem. he must take care of his step sister as their guardian. Although lincoln's step sisters can make money with themselves, Lincoln wants to be a good guardian. He also has no problem working at the gas station. Lincoln wanted them not to get through the hard times again.

In the restaurant across from the city.

"Okay I've called all the lincoln step sisters to come here."

"Are you sure ken? why did you speed up this meeting? "

"To be honest, I can not hide this clyde. They should know about this. "

"Well ken. I'll explain all about it. "

Soon 10 women came to the family room rented by ken and clyde.

"Well ken ken what wrong with our aniki? "Says the woman with long white hair.

"Yes ken tell us, what happened to our big bro," said the woman with short white hair and a greaser-like appearance.

"What happened to hiro" said the woman who has bob-colored white hair model.

"What happened to our brother ken?" Said the woman who has wavy white hair

"Is our big bro is sick ken?" Said the woman with ace savy hat.

"Is my big brother in trouble?" Said the woman with white hair tied up into a ponytail.

"Dude what happened to my big bro?" Said the little girl with white pixie hair.

"Ken tell us that our aniki is fine" said two little girls.

"What happened to my big brother?" Said the little girl who had short hair.

All these women with white hair give the same question to ken.

"quiet . this is clyde mcbride he is your brother's friend when your brother is still small. lyde this is akihiro's step-sister. "

"..."

"Clyde?"

"Ah yes sorry ken. Hello everyone my names is clyde mcbride. I am your brother's closest friend before he was adopted by you. Nice to meet you everyone. "

Clyde was silent for a moment. He was silent because he was surprised that lincoln had 10 beautiful step-sisters. Not just one but all of them. They also have white-colored hair just like lincoln. Clyde thinks lincoln has a family that suits him.

"Nice to meet you clyde. My name is ava "says a woman with long white hair.

"My name is adelia. Nice to meet you clyde "said a woman with short white hair with a greaser-like appearance.

"Alma. Nice to meet you, "said a woman who has bob-colored white hair.

"Ella chloe. Nice to meet you clyde "said a woman who has wavy white hair.

"Audrey chloe. It's an honor to meet you "said a woman with an ace savy hat.

"Julia," said the woman with white hair tied up into a ponytail.

"Scarlett. Nice to meet you mate ". said the little girl with white-colored pixie hair.

"I'm Sophia," said the little girl in clothes like a skater.

"I'm sophie," says the little girl in feminism clothes.

"My name is ivy. Nice to meet you sir." Said the little girl who has short hair.

"All right. It is an honor to meet all of you. Please sit down and order food as much as you guys want because we will have a long conversation. "

"Okay clyde" they all said.

"Hey clyde I do not have that much money," Ken said in a whisper to the clyde

"It's okay ken. I'll pay it. "

After 45 minutes.

"ClydeThanks for you to buy us good food. So what happened to our sister? "

Clyde and ken are silent for a while. They wonder if this is a good decision or not. They should not interfere in this matter. But they can not turn around. They also think that this is for the best.

"Clyde? what happened to you? "ella said with a worried expression.

"Ah sorry everyone. Did your brother ever talk about you about his past? "

"We don't know his past clyde." Said alva to clyde.

"listen to me. Can you heal the wounds that are inside him? "Clyde said with a serious look at them.

"What do you mean with the injuries in our big brother?"

Clyde did not respond to alma's question. He just looked at them with a serious look.

"Tell us what clyde is going on with our brother," Adelia said with a sad expression.

"Okay but before I tell your brother past, can you heal the wounds that are in akihiro."

They all do not understand what the clyde says. They always see their brother healthy and fit no pain whatsoever. But because they care about their brother and love him with all their heart, they are willing to do anything for their big brother. Although lincoln is not their biological elder brother, the presence of him in their family is very meaningful. Lincoln was like the light of their happiness. Lincoln who helped them to rise and become successful. It was Lincoln who helped them to love themselves. They want to thank lincoln for what he did to them. Without him, they may not be happy like this.

"Well clyde we do not understand what you say to us but, we will do anything for our big brother. He has done anything for us and now we want to repay his kindness. So the answer from us is, yes we can heal the wound that is in our big brother, "said ella to clyde.

Ella and her sister saw clyde with a serious gaze to the clyde too. For a few minutes, there was like a gaze contest between the two of them. Clyde already believes they care about Lincoln. Their gaze answered all the clyde questions.

"Okay, I understand. You can heal the wounds that are in akihiro. But this is not easy and can not be cured by doctors or money. "

"What's wrong with him clyde? Please, our brother has done anything for us. We want to repay our brother kindness. "Said Adelia to the clyde with a sad expression.

"Okay adelia, I understand. But, you can not talk about this meeting to akihiro understand? ".

"Why we can not tell this meeting to our brother clyde?" Ivy said to clyde.

"You will surely understand why I forbid you to tell this meeting to your brother. Before I tell you all this, I want you to not bother me while I'm telling you all this. "

"OK. We understand, "they told the clyde.

"OK. Your brother was my closest friend since we were little, he was like my own brother. In the past, he was known as a jolly boy and liked to help others without wanting to get anything. He is also a child who has a full spirit in living his life. But, unfortunately his life he ended tragically. All this because of a misunderstanding that always haunts him. I will take you to Nine years ago and I will explain you the painful story of your brother.

We are gathering in the backyard of the school. Some of our friends brought knives to school. Our friend wants to do attraction with that knife but your brother thinks that this is not safe and should not be done by a kid. At that time, your brother took the initiative to take the knife for the safety of our friend. But, there is one stupid person who causes all these problems. This stupid person stumbles and pushes your brother to the ground causing your brother to accidentally stab our friend. When I want to chase this fool he's gone. I'd love to help your brother from this problem but, I only know this stupid man only 5 minutes I just remember him being called with John but, many people have john's name as well and at that time he was wearing a closed suit so I do not know his appearance.

Since I do not have strong evidence, your brother spent his elementary school graduation in juvenile prison. He already has a great body since he was a child because of that, people are afraid of him plus with his bad rumors makes him seen as a monster at his home and in his city. It's not over yet, when he's in juvenile none of his family members come or chat with him. After he got out of juvenile prison, he was kicked out by his own family because of his bad rumors. In the end, he lives alone without family without home and without someone he loves. "

For a moment clyde went silent saw lincoln step sisters cry. They did not suspect that their big brother had a painful past. Now they understand why they should not tell this meeting to their big brother.

"Every day he always thinks this is his fault. But the truth is, your brother did not make any mistakes. he's been lonely all this time. He needs someone who can color and fill his day with happiness that is you guys. That's why I'm asking you guys, can you heal the wounds that are in your brother. The injuries in your brother can not be healed with money, love and whatever. Therefore you must heal the wounds that are in his heart in your own way. Now, what do you think about all this? please be honest with me. "

"Sorry clyde give us some moment. We did not know that our big brother had a painful past, "said Ava

Clyde nodded and saw them crying. They cry because they do not know that their big brother has a painful past. They do not realize that their big brother has experienced pain, loneliness and unbearable sadness.

"Clyde I will be honest with you, we do not know if our brother has a painful past as you tell us." Ava to clyde

"We also do not know if our brother has a large wound in his hearts. This injury is not like a disease but like an emotional illness. "Adelia said to the clyde.

"We also do not know what we should do to heal his wounds and wake him up from all of this," says Alma.

"But, that doesn't mean we want to let this problem go on and let him live alone forever." Says ella.

"He is our source of inspiration. He always teaches us to love ourselves for what it is, "Audrey said.

"He was like a light in our darkness clyde. Without him our lives will not be as beautiful as this, "Julia said.

"He is the one who is always there for us. He takes care of us with affection. He taught us all to be grateful for what we have. "Scarlett said.

"He is the one who teaches us the meaning of life. Without him we have become useless people in our family, "said the twins Sophia and sophie

"We do not know he has such a painful past clyde. But he is the source of the light of our happiness. Because of him, we can smile happily here. Because of him, we can accept ourselves and love ourselves. He is always there for us. He also always supports us, giving us life motivation. He also taught us about spreading goodness. He always try to give the best for us. Because of that, we will heal the wounds that are in his heart. We will color and fill his life with happiness. We want to repay for what he did to us. Because of him, I can see a happy smile in my family. Because of that *sniff * we do not want to lose him. "

Clyde cried in the words spoken by his step-sisters. He never listened to these beautiful words from a little girl. From these words, clyde believes their presence in lincoln life can heal the wounds that are in his heart.

"All right. I hope you guys understand * sniff * about what he's been through all this time. "Said clyde while crying.

"same with us clyde. Without you maybe we will not know for what he has been through so far. can i know who his real family is and what is his real name? "Said scarlett.

"You know luna loud do not you?"

"Luna loud, of course I know about her. she is the Rockstar that I admire. Is our brother. "

"Yes your brother is a member of the luna loud family. His real name is lincoln loud "

"I do not believe. The one I've always dreamed of. "Scarlett looked at the luna poto in her wallet in disappointment.

"Wait a minute, do you mean he is a member of the loud family?" Ava said with a surprised expression.

"Yes ava. He is the middle child of his family. What is going on?"

"We have a person named loud who is also in our school. They are famous people at our school. "

"I remember, I have a junior named lana loud. I can not believe it, our brother is a member of her family. "Adelia said with a surprised expression.

"Look, I'm not telling you to hate them. It's up to you. But I just want to ask you to treat the wounds that are in your brother. "

"Yes clyde * sniff * we will color his day and make him happy forever." Said twin Sophia and sophie.

"All right I rely on you guys. And before we end this meeting, I'll show you a video another side of your brother native family. "

Clyde showed a video where Lincoln family pounded him like they kicked an innocent animal. They saw their brother pouring in blood here and there and his body was covered with bruises. After the louds family thinks that this is enough, they spit their brother who is lying on a cold street. They do not even show any sympathy to their brother. What's worse, they all use weapons and they are all idols that they desire.

"Clyde why do not we just report this to the police ?" said ava with an angry expression

"listen to me everyone. I know you are angry with what happen to your brother but you have to think about your brother's feelings. We can not do all we want about it. Lincoln may not want to destroy his native family. So I'll keep this recording as proof of another side of his native family . "

"You're right clyde. We should can't do as we want. "

"I know you're angry. But think about your brother's feeling. The important thing now is to make your step-brother happy forever. I also do not tell you to hate the louds family. That's none of my business. I want you not to show sadness to your brother. I want you to show your affection to him. "

"Okay clyde. Thank you for all this. We promise we will not talk about this meeting to our brother, "Julia said to the clyde.

"All right we end the meeting here. It is getting late. Be careful everyone. "

After that. They decided to go home.

The next day.

"I'm home" shouted Lincoln to his home.

No one answered him. Maybe they've gone for doing their activities. And not long after that. His step sisters came to hugging him tightly.

"Please brother. We need this warm hug "said ava to lincoln.

"We love you brother," said her step-sister to Lincoln.

"I love you too," said Lincoln with a warm smile.

This beautiful moment lasts for 10 minutes. According to lincoln, this hug is a hug that means a lot to him.

"Hey brother your change your hair ?" Said adelia to lincoln.

"Ah yes. I just cut my hair into bald. "

"Why is there a knife cut in your head?" Sophia and Sophie twins said with worried expression.

"Oh this, this happens because of an accident at work. But calm down everyone, I'm fine, "said Lincoln with a wide smile.

"Alright then. Brother let's eat, I've made your favorite food. "

"very good. I'm hungry at all. Let's eat everyone. "

After that. They ate their breakfast happily. They laugh Together, tell their day and so on. Ivy recorded all of this happily.

"I'm going to make a movie for my performances later in royal woods entitled " a happiness " ". Ivy said in her head.
