Born Into The Aishi Family

Chapter 5

Cries. That was the only sound that echoed throughout the Aishi's household. Fudoki was hugging his mother with all of his little strength, Ryoba was both happy and sad at the current sighting, happy because she feels actually wanted by her child and sad to see Fudoki crying like this "Sweetheart we'll be back... you'll have your big sister here to take care of you" she hugs him closely, but the boy wanted justice "No! I don't like her and she doesn't like me! please don't go! take me with you!".

After a lot of struggle of keeping Fudoki at bay, which was Ayano forcing him in place, the parents finally managed to get away to the airport "You think he'll be okay with Ayano?" asked Jokichi as pure concern was on his face, Ryoba gives him a big quick kiss, giggling "Of course he will! Ayano is quite fond of the little guy! trust me they will get along real well!" "...Right" Jokichi takes a left turn as he switches into the third gear "I just worry, you know? but... I guess you're right Ryoba...".

Friday came around as many people were happy that they can ascend into the bliss that's also known as the weekend, little Fudoki was currently learning how to do basic math, struggling a little bit as his brain is still trying to understand if a six is actually a nine or the other way around, kids sure do have rich imaginations don't they? looking outside the boy remembers about his parents, feeling upset that they're gone and has to spend time with his ugly sister, that's what Fudoki thinks of her not me.

The bell rang as everyone got startled, the teacher lets out a soft giggle as she claps her hands together "Alright class that was the final bell for today! pack your bags and head home! enjoy your weekend everybody, I hope to see all of your smiles again Monday!". Walking outside the school building Fudoki saw how his classmates were going to their parents as they came to pick them up, the little boy looks around for his sister but she was nowhere to be found, left with no choice he had to walk all by himself back home.

A twenty minute walk or so turned into three hours as Fudoki got lost quite a lot of times, first time was getting into the wrong neighborhood somehow, the second was ending up at the wrong house, the third being chased off by a dog as he lost himself on the never ending streets. But with struggle and will to get back home he managed to eventually find it, he easily recognized it because their house have a blue water house that is coiled around the corner of the house.

Entering the house and getting his shoes off he starred into the lonely house as he expected a greeting... but seems like no one is home "...I'm back!" he yelled out loud, he might dislike his sister but he can't just ignore her, after all they're the only ones in the house for now. As he sat in silence no response came from nowhere, not even footsteps from anyone around the house "I guess she's not home... her shoes are not in her box...".

With his stomach grumbling he walked towards the fridge, peeking through it "Usually mama leaves me food..." there was left overs of different dishes that Ryoba cooked, problem was that they needed to get heated up, something Fudoki had no idea how to do it "I'll wait' for big sister, hold on it's 14:20!" quickly walking into the living room he turns on the TV as he surfed through the channel "Wait... was the show starting at 15:20 instead?".

Meanwhile at the Akademi school, Ayano was secretly watching over the boy that bumped into her on the first day, whenever she looked at him something deep within her sparked everytime... "Oh senpai... how beautiful you look laying down under the sun's rays..." she found out that his name is Taro Yamada, which was quick to be encrypted in the back of her brain. Her watching session was was cut off short by Raibaru Fumetsu, a girl whose very well known for her kindness, but beneath that sweet innocent girl hides a very dangerous foe.

As how much she hated to impersonate happy emotions Ayano forced herself to put on a fake smile "Ah, hello Ayano! are you lost?" "...Yes, I'm still getting used to the campus, would you help me get to my class?" with a cheering smile Raibaru started walking off, with Ayano following her from behind... not before looking one last time at her senpai. With her sitting on the chair she drew on her notebook a couple of hearts, the biology lesson was way too boring for Ayano to actually pay any sort of focus.

The final bell of the day rings as students began packing their stuff, others remained to clean around the school but Ayano had other priorities. Leaving the building she looks around but there was no sight of her senpai... so she decided to walk around until she catches a glimpse of Taro. Grabbing into a broom she walked up on the third floor, sweeping the dust off the hallways she slowly made her way towards class 3-2, peeking inside the window from the window there stood the man... chatting away with a twin orange hair girl who displayed great signs of tsundere.

"Come on Osana... I've been trying..." mumbled Taro quietly as Osana puts her hands on her hips, angrily scolding Taro "I don't care! you haven't showed up last Sunday! you promised to... ngh! forget it!" turning around she leaves the classroom "...I'm sorry, Taro" said Raibaru before following Osana from behind. Seeing this Ayano couldn't help but grip into the broom tight as she felt the feeling of kill, that girl... Osana... is messing with her senpai, something Ayano will not tolerate.

̶H̶̶̶o̶̶̶w̶̶̶e̶̶̶v̶̶̶e̶̶̶r̶̶̶ ̶i̶̶̶n̶̶̶s̶̶̶t̶̶̶e̶̶̶a̶̶̶d̶̶̶ ̶o̶̶̶f̶̶̶ ̶b̶̶̶e̶̶̶i̶̶̶n̶̶̶g̶̶̶ ̶d̶̶̶u̶̶̶m̶̶̶b̶̶̶ ̶l̶̶̶i̶̶̶k̶̶̶e̶̶̶ ̶i̶̶̶n̶̶̶ ̶t̶̶̶h̶̶̶e̶̶̶ ̶g̶̶̶a̶̶̶m̶̶̶e̶̶̶

Instead Ayano approached Taro, trying her best to contain her emotions as she puts on a genuine smile "H-Hello Taro senpai, I've noticed you've been feeling quite down lately, everything okay?" she cannot believe that she's actually talking to Taro at the moment, her heart was surely experiencing some sort of attack from the Taro nation "...Yeah, it's just that Osana has been more... weird, lately... I cannot figure out why..." enhancing the hatred fuel, Ayano kept smiling "Oh I'm sure she's just going through the monthly period... would you mind help me sweeping the halls?".

And that's how Ayano managed to reel in the stupid, because Taro is indeed a dum dum, but he was good with the broom at least. Ayano couldn't bring herself to speak too much with Taro, in her heart she was more than happy that she was at the very least spending some time with him...making him acknowledge that she's not only exists but is a sweet girl, I wonder for how long the fake persona will last Ayano... but I shouldn't judge this early on.

After cleaning hours were done Ayano made sure to follow Taro all the way to his home...further completing her list of tasks as she now knew where his house was, she couldn't help but giggle at the absurd ideas in her messed up head... the thing she'd do in that home would make even Ryoba think twice before coming in contact with her daughter again. As Ayano made made her way back home rain started to settle in, as small drops dropped into her head "Great, raining again this week" she didn't exactly mind the weather, but it was surely annoying to get her clothes wet... especially not in the right scenario.

Opening the front door of her house she walks inside, putting her shoes in the specific box "I'm home" she yelled out as she looks around the living room, no sight of Fudoki so far... "...I'm home!" she yelled louder, checking the kitchen, thinking that Fudoki might be snacking on some treats... but once more no sight of him. Not understanding the emotion she's currently feeling, which is known as an adrenaline rush to normal humans, she walked upstairs as she opened the room towards his room "Hey, why aren't you answering?".

Glancing around the room it was as clean as ever, his schoolbag was next to the bed... usually Fudoki's bed would be a mess due to him mostly playing with his toys on it "...Fudoki?" creak opening the door to the bathroom she peaks inside, once again no sight of him "...Second day and I lost Fudoki" not exactly sure what to do she started to check the entire house... in their parent's bedroom, in the attic, in the backyard, hell even under the couch, there was no sight of little Fudoki.

Sitting on the couch she slowly started to realize the importance of her little brother, sure, they don't spend time together or anything... but Ayano sure does feel weird not having someone to constantly bug her out... especially after yesterday's words little Fudoki said *"I don't like her and she doesn't like me!"* Ayano felt strange towards this sentence. As she was ready to look for him in the front yard, grabbing her shoes from the box to put them on, she noticed how Fudoki's shoes were not in the box "...That little midget! did he ran away? why would he..." not having time to think she puts on the shoes, before rushing outside "Fudoki! where are you?!".
