"Good morning boys!" my mom called from the kitchen. I looked at her with extreme confusion in my eyes.
"Uh... mom? Who's the kid?" she smiled
"This is Judai." She smiled like a giddy school girl "he'll be your new brother" I paled
"New…brother?"
"Is something wrong honey?" I fake smiled. She wouldn't believe me if I told her…
"No nothing's wrong. I'm just hungry, that's all" I laughed it off and walked over to the table. My mom smiled, unseeing as ever and looked around
"Looks like we're out of milk" she muttered looking to me "Johan please watch your brothers while I'm gone. I'll only be at the store for a minute"
"Hey!" Jehu protested "I'm the oldest here!"
"I'm just more mature than you" I taunted
"That's it!" I laughed as he chased me around the table.
"Ok I'll be back soon" my mom smiled as she left slowly. I stopped and Jehu ran into me
"Bye mom" we chorused like usual. Jehu looked at me smirking. He already knew about my dreams and was all for helping me get answers. The door slammed close and we each took a spot by Judai
"Ok kid time for answers" Jehu said sitting next to the now scared brunette.
"Who are you really?" I hissed sitting on his other side. His chocolate brown eyes swung back and forth between us full of fear and uncertainty. His eyes went to the ceiling for a moment… uh oh... I recognize that face
"D-demo koe-" he closed his eyes like he was being yelled at "h-hai" he looked at me frightened
"Why are you being so mean? What did I do?"
"Cut the crap kid!" Jehu yelled "we know everything you did! We want to know why you're here" Judai flinched and looked at us fearfully
"What did I do…" his voice was small and he was on the verge of tears. I sighed and looked at him
"How many lives have you taken" his eyes widened more if possible
"n-none" he shuddered
"Bull crap!" Jehu hissed. Judai flinched
"Let us see the gold eyed boy" I said emotionlessly. Judai looked up again conversing with the murder. His eyes morphed colors and the boy glared at me
"Smart boy" he marveled looking at me "though you seem to have scared my hikari" I scowled
"What do you want here?"
"My hikari was complaining about hunger. So we found some suckers bound to take in a little boy"
"Suckers?" Jehu snarled
"Yes. I hate to break it to you but your family is full of idiots." He smirked "only to be killed when I am done here…" the boy stood up and began walking around the kitchen he looked through drawers and cabinets looking for something. "But don't worry children…" he smiled obviously finding what he was looking for. In slow motion a black handle appeared followed by the glittering silver of a butcher knife. He pulled the blade across his hand drawing out a thin line of crimson. He licked it quickly and met eyes with me "you'll follow after them" I gasped and the coldness of gold became the warmness of molten chocolate. The brunette looked from his hand to the knife and began crying.
"I don't wanna koe… please stop this" he closed his eyes signaling the verbal abuse we couldn't hear. I walked slowly over to the child and gently took the knife from his hand. I placed it in the sink and grabbed the hand that wasn't cut. I lead the small brunette to the bathroom and held his bleeding palm under cold water. He sniffled and looked at me with watery chocolate eyes.
"W-why are you helping me? Don't you hate me?" he rubbed his eyes with his free hand "don't you wish I was gone?" I smiled at him
"I'm helping because I don't want my mom to worry about you" I pulled out a first aid kit my mom kept under the sink. "I don't hate you because I know your story," I dug inside the kit until I found a thin white fabric for Judais' injury. I got it out and began wrapping the clean wound. Shutting the water off as I did so
"And honestly I do kinda want you gone seeing as your gold eyed buddy threatened my life" he looked down a little
"o-oh…"
"Tell me Judai. Is there any way I can stop the gold eyed boys attack?" his eyes looked to me sadly
"I have an idea… but I don't know if it would work…"
"Well what is it" he took a breath like it might threaten his very being for saying what he was gonna say
"Every night when I sleep I hear. 'If I am unimportant than so are they' in my koes voice. So… make him feel important… like I said it only a guess…" I smiled
"Thank you Judai." I messed up his hair a little. His eyes lit up at the gesture
"I hope it helps you!" he sung happily
'I hope it does to… I really hope it does to'
