013 – Crazy
Daisuke still remembers the way Saki stood up, big, bold and beautiful, independent and proud. She didn't sweat, didn't stutter, didn't sob or weep, she knew what she had to say, and knew exactly how she was going to say it.
"I'm gay." Saki said, a challenge dead-set in her big green eyes.
The rowdy chatter stopped abruptly, and in Daisuke's mind the silence was deafening. It took a slow ten minutes for tentative talk to start up again, but no one paid heed to Saki's statement. She took it in her stride, sighed, as if she'd expected no less.
Daisuke's only 10 and he doesn't understand much, he never saw the problem when Saki babysat him, or when the beautiful, doe-eyed blonde girl came to pick her up.
Nonetheless, when Daisuke's cousin is 17, she's ostracized from the family.
Now whenever she's referred to it's always 'the black sheep', 'the dyke', 'that crazy cousin'.
Daisuke doesn't like to think what' going to happen when they find out about Takeru.
