Chapter 8 – Lola
"Rin, I can't believe you did this!"
Rin and Len were sitting on the couch, listening a very furious Lola yell about what had happened two days ago. Rin seemed bored and didn't have much interest in what her mother was saying. Len kept his head low. What would happen now?
X-X-X
Len took a while to react, but, with some effort, he managed to get Rin away from Neru. How could a girl so petite like Rin be so strong? Rin thrashed and fought to break free, but Len kept her trapped in his arms.
Neru slowly stood up. Her face had scratches everywhere, her lips were cut, her right cheek was swollen and purple. Red finger marks could be seen around her neck. What had happened for Rin to do that to the girl?
When she finally managed to stand, the girl started to cough. Her neck hurt like hell and she had hit her head and back hard against the floor when Rin knocked her. Len didn't know what to say.
"N-Neru... I don't know how something like this could happen! I'm... I'm sorry... I..."
"Don't worry, Len. It's not your fault to have such a violent step-sister like that. Rin, don't think you'll get away from this! I'll tell my father! I'll fuck up your life!" shouted Neru.
Rin threatened to attack again, but Len kept a strong hold on her. Neru ran to her car and went home. Len dragged Rin, who was still thrashing, inside home. He finally let her go and she shoved him away from her. Len closed the door and prayed that no neighbor had seen that terrible scene.
Inside the room, Rin tried to calm down, however, without success. God, why can't she control her anger? She had messed up again and this time it could get Len in trouble too. But she couldn't help but feel satisfaction for what she had done to the girl. How dare she?
"Rin... What... What just happened here?" Len seemed to be in panic and very tired.
"…"
"Rin!"
"I couldn't control myself! How dare she touch something that is mine?" yelled Rin, but she wasn't angry at Len.
"What? Yours?" Len was confused. What does she mean by that?
Rin realized what she had said. What an idiot! How could she fix that now? Trying to calm herself down to not mess up again, she finally thought of an excuse.
"Yes. You're my brother! No one likes to see someone rapping your brother mouth against his will!" What a lame excuse. She didn't even know if Len wanted that kiss or not. However, it looks like he fell for that.
"Ah... I... I see..." Why did he sound disappoint at her answer? What does that mean?
X-X-X
And then, somehow, Lola learned about what had happened. Probably Neru's parents had called her. Lola cancelled the trip she had with Leon and went back home alone, to solve the problem her daughter had created.
"I had to come back running! I had to almost beg them to not sue you, Rin! Beg! Do you know what would've have happened, Rin? You're not a child anymore! You would mold in jail. Jail, Rin!" Lola yelled, but it didn't seem to reach her daughter.
Everything Lola was saying entered in one of Rin's ear and left in the other. She was already used to be scolded. When Lola came back, she discovered the other things Rin had done. She learned that Rin had gone to jail at least three times since she had gone in that trip with Leon. Why was she hearing about that just now?
"And I'm very disappointed at you, Len. Why didn't you tell me about the thing Rin has been doing? Don't tell me you were covering for her!?" Len just shrank into the couch. It wasn't a lie; he was really covering for Rin.
"Don't blame him! Len has nothing to do with my stuff!" screamed Rin, her hands fisted.
Why did Lola have to involve Len into this? That made her angry. Lola was taken aback by Rin's sudden outburst, but stood her ground. Len looked at Rin awed for her to defend him, even if Lola wasn't really wrong. He almost smiled, but it wasn't the right moment for that.
"You can't get away from this without a punishment. I've already decided it. For both of you." Lola sighed, "Len, you're grounded. You're forbidden to go out and use any form of technology."
"What?" the two tried to protest.
"Quiet. And you, Rin, Leon and I decided to send you to a board school. There you'll learn discipline and will become a better person."
"M-my dad agreed with that?" asked Len, perplexed.
"Not really. But I'm Rin's mother, I know what is better for her, so he decided to not question my decision. Until we get your transference, Rin, you're grounded. You're extremely forbidden to leave this house. Forbidden, do you understand?
And to be sure that you'll follow my decision, Len, you're responsible for Rin to stay home. Do not disappoint me again, okay? Tell me if Rin do anything wrong or break my rule. Go to your rooms now." Lola pointed the stairs.
Rin left the room snorting; she couldn't stand looking at that woman anymore. Len followed her, silent. Lola sat on the couch, feeling tired. God, what had she done wrong? Could Rin's behavior be really her father's fault?
Len entered his room feeling a little dizzy. Rin was going to be sent to a boarding school? He should be happy that he wasn't going to be her babysitter anymore, but he couldn't see no light on it. She was going to somewhere far away from him and there was nothing he could do to change that. Rin was like a bird and was born to be free, not to live caged.
Rin realized what her mother had said just after she entered her room. Boarding school? She would have to stay away from her friends, her home, and her fights? And, especially, away from Len? To be able to see him every day was what brought happiness to her life that she thought to be pathetic. How could she survive in a boarding school? She didn't feel she was capable to live like a caged bird.
Very far from there, Leon was also thinking about his family situation. He didn't regret marrying with Lola, he knew it would be hard to live with Rin. However, given the childhood of the girl, it was easy to understand that she had some social issues. Leon didn't agree with Lola's decision of sending the girl to a boarding school, because he thought it would make Rin's behavior even worse. But Leon couldn't take Lola's authority as a mother, so, while he was in his business trip, he was looking for schools they could matriculate Rin.

Luka was reading a book on her bed. However, her attention was on the book she was reading. The pink haired woman was thinking about what Rin had done to Neru and, considering how the girl's dad was, Rin was in real trouble now. She was worried, she didn't want to see her student ruining her own life like that. She didn't want her student ruining Len's life like that.
Gakupo arrived at home and found his girlfriend sighing in the kitchen. He hugged her from behind and noticed she was drinking a remedy for headache. He kissed her shoulder and asked what was wrong.
"Nothing, just a little problem with a student." Luka gave him a small kiss on the lips, "Hey, Gaku, you know that girl that went to the dojô the other day? Have you seen if she came back?"
"The blondie?" Luka nodded, "No, she hasn't come back since that day, why?"
"Never mind then…"
Luka followed Gakupo to their room. While he was taking a shower, she started to think about Rin again. She hasn't gone back to the dojô, could that mean her plan was a failure?

Sorry that this chapter is shorter than my previous ones!
Haha, so Lola is home now! Len has to keep an eye on Rin and Rin is now a caged bird!
I don't know if you guys noticed, but Rin has anger issues!
Chapter question:
It just me or the LenxRin fans are turning into LenKu fans?
I've noticed that and, for me, it makes no sense!
Review for the Great Potato!
