Chapter 3: Family problems

Trigger Warning!: Mentions of abuse, cheating family members.

"Am I adopted?"

"What did you say?"

You quickly shut your mouth. It was obvious that you had hit a nerve. The servants quickly lower their gazes as they do not want to be caught meddling in your family businesses.

Mother panicked but managed to react to the situation by quickly cupping your face and turning it towards her. She adjusted your head so that you would be on level gaze with her, as if wanting you to focus on her eye color that Yui had inherited.

"W-What are you saying?? O-Of course you're not adopted, you are truly our daughter..." Mother stuttered.

That much you know, since you played the game and all.

But the familiar fluttering came again, the similar feeling you first felt when Yui suddenly switched with you. It slowly came from the back of your mind to the front until it was all that you could see.

You read over the words that suddenly pop up into your mind.

"...Then why are we not close with each other, like true family should..?" 

You read over it slowly like how you would read a line from a book, making it sound less like a question but more like a statement.

You slowly register the words into your brain.

'Is this Yui's true feeling? Was she a child that craved for love from her family? If that's true, no wonder she was so obsessed over someone like Tanjirou...'

Father didn't answer, but instead gestured you to come to him. You oblige, not really thinking much about it. Maybe he too wanted to say words of comfort like Mother did..?

But instead, it was the complete opposite.

He lifted his large hand high up to the ceiling and bringing it down with strong force,  slapping you hard in the face making you drop straight to the ground. Midway through the fall, you had slammed your head with the sharp corner of the table. Biting your lips, you try to shift the focus of the throbbing pain to somewhere else.

Some maids, especially Elisa who had felt your kindness earlier that day, rushed over to help you. But before they could do anything Father had stop them midway by threatening to throw away their career along with their life.

"Hinata, it seems you have been neglecting your duties to teach basic manners to our children. " Father said to Mother, his tone in a degrading manner.

"After all these years I thought you had finally improved. But it seems you are as incompetent as ever."

You could feel your heart beat faster as anger slowly builds in you. What's wrong  with this dude?? It was you who asked the question, and although it was awkward, it was the truth. The family didn't get along, and there's no harm in asking why to help improve it further. Why is he suddenly switching the focus of the topic, to talk down to Mother?

This ruffian..

You stood up, a hand up to your right temple that might bruise and turn blue sooner or later. "What?  Why are you going as far as to degrade Mother? All I did was ask!"

"Yui, no-"

"-I merely was stating facts." Your Father cut off Mother who was trying to stop you.

"Facts? Or is it just because you hold a twisted opinion about Mother!? Have you got no eyes? Do you need glasses? I think you would need glassed because if you didn't then you would have seen how competent Mother is!"
