*Tomoko's POV*
Tomoko slowly awoke in her own bed, yawning and wiping sleep from her eyes, she moved out of her covers, and shuffled to her computer, turning it on and sitting in her chair. Suddenly she realized her situation. "Wasn't I just at school previously, how did I get home?"
Becoming curious she got out of her chair and slid her door open, as soon as she did this she could her her mom on the phone. "- I know, it's just really weird, I mean it's the same thing everyday, just sitting up there with those weird games." Tomoko while listening slowly crept near the edge of the stairs trying to hear the conversation better. "- well, I've walked past her room sometimes and I've caught a glance at some of things she's playing or watching-" Tomoko was shocked "No way, is she talking about me, shit, how much did she see?!" "- it was just... I'd rather not talk about it. It's probably why she doesn't leave the house, or have any other friends besides her friend, Yuu-chan, it's probably why Yuu, rarely invites her to anything-" Her mother kept talking on the phone, her heart was beating, Tomoko thought in silence. "how-how does she know about that, I mean it's not that she doesn't want to hang out, right, it's because I'm always busy, and so is she!" As Tomoko says this quietly to herself she backs up, into someone as she turns around she's startled by her brother Tomoki. "Fuck, don't scare me like that, damn!" She yells with a hushed voice. "She's right you know, all you ever do is sit inside on you computer all day, you have no friends." Tomoki says to her bluntly. "What? What the hell do you mean, you-you don't even know my friends, I'll have you know-" Tomoko is cut off by her brother as he continues. "What a joke, my big sister the socially retarded hikkomorri, I've walked in on you, I know you. Doing those lewd things, hoping someone will walk in there a fuck you, I bet just about anyone would do for a desperate otaku...even me!" Tomoko is speechless, trembling she fights back. "N-no th-that's not true..." As a few tears well up in her eyes, she continues "ho-how could say something like that!" Holding back her sobbing, a hand is laid upon her shoulder, "it's okay...I'll help you fix this" as Tomoko looked up at her brother he continues to speak. "It's very simple... You should just simply die." Upon hearing this Tomoko freezes up, in shock at the words she just heard, suddenly she is pushed backwards by Tomoki, as he wickedly grins watching her sister fall down the stairs. "T-Tomoki!" She yells, trying desperately to stop herself, she knows all too well that it's too late, as she feels her head slam against a step, as her body rolls backwards over her she is repeatedly slammed and thrashed about the staircase as she falls down, eventually coming to a stop as she hits her face against the wood floor, as she tries to sit up she, screams in agony, feeling something or more has broken. "Mom! Help, I can't move!" As she lays on the floor, leg broken and a dislocated arm. Her mother slowly comes over. "Mom! I- I can't move! I think I brok-". She is interrupted as her throat is suddenly restricted as her mother begins to choke her with her bare hands. "Honey it's for the best... We have been thinking for a while now, and you know you're just taking up space and money, so this is the best way" Her mother states. Tomoko struggled with her good arm, "m-om!" A strangled raspy voice barely makes it out. Her grip tightened around Tomoko's neck. As Tomoko began to lose consciousness. Everything went black.
Shooting up in a cold sweat a visible shaking Tomoko awakens in the school nurses office.
Immediately she begins to sob, a knot in her throat forms, similar to her terrifying nightmare. Suddenly she hears a set of foot steps quickly move close to her, as she is wrapped in warm familiar embrace.
