Memories

The Sawada twins were in the entrance with an intention to welcome their parents... But they didn't expect someone else to come at their house...

'We meet Koharu for the first time when our parents brought her home... back then all she have is sea of coldness on her eyes... It all started 12 years ago...'

'She was introduced to us by our father, Iemetsu Sawada...'

"Listen you two..." our father started referring me and my twin younger brother, Tsuna. "This is Koharu, be gentlemen and treat her like a sister" our father slips happily to us.

'Tsu-chan or Tsuna is staring at her, while me it just that I don't like her at first... and i don't understand why we need to adopt this cold girl... yes I’m little bit selfish back then... but it changed a little when our father told us the reason why...'

Me, Tsuna, our mother, and our father were on the leaving room to talk about Koharu. While the said girl were already on her room and resting since our mother said 'she's probably tired because of long trip...'

"Her family and our family were very good friends for over the years..." our mother started

"Listen carefully Tsu-kun..." he referring me "Tsu-chan" to my brother "That girl's family were killed on their own house in Kyoto..." our father followed

"The more terrible to her experience was...'' our father paused for a moment and took a deep breath and by his looks our father were liked he hesitating in his next words for us, that also giving us a tension to our chest... "She was raped by the killer himself..." he sadly slips to us... of course it tensed us... who's not?

"The reason why we adopted her was all the members of her family were casting her away. They saying she's the cursed, the reason why her family killed" our mother informed us

"And she's not comfortable to our other family and since the two of you were gentlemen so I thought that she be back to her feet if you two be a good boys to her. Can we expect that Tsu-kun, Tsu-chan?"

'Our parents really expect us that? Well... after what we heard who does not try to be good to someone whose have sorrowful fate like Koharu? And we don’t have narrow heart, you know!'

'So we both promised that we will be good boys for her until she back to her feet, that's all... That's what I’m thinking back then, it just that, period... but'

'One night, i woke up and think that i going to get a glass water, well it's my hobby and i'm used to it... i leave my room while yawning as a bit of tear were in my left eye. I'm not crying it just due to the watery eyes... somepeople like that you know! Then let's go back to my story... As i exited my room i heard a crying voice... and due of my curiosity, I’d searched for it and found that its coming from that girl's room, yes on Koharu's room... if I still remember we don't have ghost in our house and I’m not like Tsuna whose scared into everything that scary...'

'I'm come to her room and listened more. As i do that i heard her voice that shaking in fear... Then out of senses I’d opened her room's door and entered. I saw her; she's having a nightmare so i decided to wake her up.'

'I successfully able to wake her up, she almost jumped to her bed. She has sweats all over her face. I can see that she's really scared to her nightmare... and i have a hint of what is it.'

'After she took her breath back and calm down, she looked at me but at that time, her eyes was quite different to her usual cold/lone eyes, on my vision i saw fear yet trying to be cold at the same time...'
