CHAPTER 47 – Daisuke gets bullied

Seven year old Daisuke bit his lip to keep from screaming out loud at the force of the kick that connected with his stomach. The other three seven year olds stopped abusing the boy only to laugh and run away, high-fiving and chatting loudly as the thought up new ways to torture the him. A few minutes later, the dull eyed boy rose shakily to his feet, lifting a hand to his tender ribs. He sighed softly, he had thought his days of being beaten were over but apparently he was wrong, he was just happy that he was so happy at home…though what he was enduring now was nothing compared to what he had suffered at the hands of Koga.

"Daisuke…?" came a tentative whisper and he turned wide eyes to look at Kiyoko, his three year old sister. Her eyes were filled with fear and her lips trembled; they both attended a prestigious School which included Kindergarten and Primary school, however the school was set up in such a way that the Kindergarteners and the children up to grade three shared a huge playground.

The little girl ran to her brother and he sat as she looked him over with worried eyes, she was just like their mother. Kiyoko was smart and audacious for her age, she spoke whatever was on her mind, but she was very obedience to their parents as well as their grandparents. In her class, her friends called her the "little Princess" because she always bossed the other children around and refused to take commands from anyone except the teacher. Despite all of this, the young girl was often a quiet individual like her brother, preferring to sit silently and observe before reacting even though Daisuke often didn't speak and rather shied away from everything.

Clad in a cute pink dress with a bright white bow with her hair in two ponytails and ribbons, a teddy bear in one arm, the little girl turned her brother's face from side to side, removing a small lace handkerchief from her pocket, she wiped the dirt from Daisuke's face.

"Why didn't you fight Daisuke?" she asked in her small yet firm baby voice and the boy bit his lips and lowered his head.

"Come, let's tell the teacher!" said Kiyoko trying to pull him to his feet.

"No!" he said firmly and she frowned, Daisuke rarely ever spoke to her like that.

"Go back to your class ok and don't tell mom or dad." He said, his voice was soft and calm as it always was.

After the day had ended, the duo was fetched by their grandmother Ai along with Miroku who acted as their bodyguards. As always after school, they would spend their afternoon doing their homework with the aid of their grandmother Ai, and then Daisuke would spend half an hour with Dr. Tanabi while Kiyoko took a nap. Afterwards, they would return to their mom after having snacks and juice and then they would spend the rest of their night with their mother and father, who tended to return home a bit late at times, since he had began working full time.

Sitting around the table, Daisuke and Kiyoko ate their dinner of rice and tempura along with corn kernels and orange juice.

"So how was your day today?" she asked cheerily after they had all finished eating their dinner. Kiyoko pepped up looking warily at her brother but his stern gaze had her silenced about whatever she was about to say. Rin looked warily from one child to the next, wondering what they could be hiding but before she could question then, they heard the steps of what could only be Sesshomaru coming up the stairs.

Kiyoko screamed and ran away to greet her father, while Daisuke turned to Rin.

"May I be excused?" he asked softly and she nodded, biting her lip…it seemed something was wrong with Daisuke. She had noticed that he had become sullen over the last few days and as a mother it worried her, Dr. Tanabi had also noticed the differences but Daisuke was not usually one to talk about his problems even though they worked very hard to aid his understanding and reactions.

"Waaaaah!" came a loud cry from the baby monitor and Rin rose, as much as she wanted to greet her husband she had to answer. Smiling, the young woman ran upstairs to her Aiko, her three month old son that had been born exactly nine months after her wedding…Rin still had to blush at the thought, but it was very fitting that they had chosen to name him Aiko which meant love-child.

The chubby silver haired babe raised his arms as he saw his mother approach, he was quite the demanding little tyke and still recovering from the birth and the difficult pregnancy, Ai had filled the role of helping her with Kiyoko and Daisuke after school. With the baby on her shoulder, she turned to leave the room with Aiko on her shoulder when she turned to see her handsome husband; with Kiyoko in his arms…she was ever the daddy's girl.

He walked over to her, placing a kiss on her lips and one on Aiko's forehead.

"Sorry I missed dinner. Where is Daisuke?" he asked and she frowned.

"He went to his room…I think something is wrong with him…" she whispered and watched as Kiyoko buried her face in her father's neck. She made it a note to question her daughter the first chance she got.

Sesshomaru turned with Kiyoko and walked to his son's bedroom. All the children had large personalized rooms. Daisuke's was blue with brown carpets and a small race car bed and with two chests of toys, with a small study desk and chair as well as a book shelf with all his books he liked to read. Kiyoko's room was fit for a little princess, with a four poster bed with silken pink curtains that surrounded the bed and it was filled with teddy-beards and toys and her favourite fairytale stories.

Sesshomaru found his son laying out his pajamas, as though he was about to shower in his own personal bath.

"Good evening Daisuke…" he said with a smile to his dad, which vanished when it came with Daisuke's regular greeting. The little boy bowed formally before his father.

"Hello father, it is good to have you home." He said softly and rose as Sesshomaru exchanged a pained glance with Rin dropped a quick kiss to his forehead before she left the room along with Sesshomaru and Kiyoko.

Much later in bed, when he had showered and had his dinner and after he had read Kiyoko a story and Rin had done the same with Daisuke, Sesshomaru lay propped up in bed with his dozing son against the soft cotton of his chest. Rin entered the room in shorts and a thin spaghetti strapped top. She'd gained a few pounds from Aiko's pregnancy but she had started an exercise routine that was allowing her to lose the weight, even though Sesshomaru enjoyed her enlarged breasts immensely.

"I think Daisuke is hiding something, I see the signs and I feel it. I just feel like he's not happy Sesshomaru, call it mother's intuition…but I think we need to look into this and Kiyoko knows something.

Sesshomaru nodded, he worried so much about his eldest son and he took all the pleasure he could in being able to interact with Aiko in the ways he couldn't with Daisuke…but it wasn't the same, it would never be the same.

"I think we should ask Kiyoko together tomorrow after school…" Rin suggested lifting a sleepy Aiko from his dad and rocking him as she prepared to take him to his crib, watching as Sesshomaru turned up the volume of the baby monitor.

"Yes…I will come home by five…" he stated and Rin nodded.

But in the morning the problem would present itself.
