Y/N'S POV


"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Lee JiSuk!"


The glasses boy stretched out his hand and wanted to have a handshake with me.


His accent was quite heavy and weird.


"Why. Didn't you hear the rumors about me?" I ignored the hand.


"Oh, brutal beast is it? The leader of the girl gang."


JiSuk took his hand back and wiped it on his uniform.


"You don't look like one. I will believe what I see."


JiSuk smiled brightly.


I rolled my eyes and gritted when he gave me a that foolish smile.


JiSuk was a transfer student, and he was arranged to be seated beside me.


"Oi, transfer student, come out with me."


JiSuk flinched as the goon kicked his chair.


JiSuk was unwilling to follow them but he was unable to defend himself with the physical of his. JiSuk stood up and staggered with the crane.


JiSuk had lost his one leg.


That's why he became the bullies' target in his first day in the school.


JiSuk always came back to the seat with black and blue all over his arms and face. Maybe more, who knows.


The teachers took no notice of him as the goon who bullied JiSuk had a strong and dangerous background.


No one dared to go against him.


"H-Hi Y/N."


JiSuk squeezed a fake smile on his face. His eyes were swollen and red, he looked exhausted and pale.


I nodded.


JiSuk kept calling day by day by them.


His body was covered with different bruises, some were newly formed and some began to shallow.


"Legless boy, come."


JiSuk's hands were trembling, the fears seemed to rise behind his eyes.


"Oi, you better listen before I get angry."


He grabbed JiSuk's collar and threatened him.


JiSuk nodded in fears and followed them.
The tears were rolling in the corner of his eyes. He knew that no one would save him from the nightmare.


"Mind your manners you fucker."


I kicked the table and it landed onto the ground with a large banging sound.


The class went silent and the atmosphere was intense.


"..... Fine."


The goon scratched his head impatiently and walked away.


"Thank you Y/N."


"Em. Sit down."


I pulled his chair out for him to get in easier.


After that incident, JiSuk kept talking to me even though I would choose to ignore him all the time. He told me his hobbies, his family, and about his leg.


I was not interested though.


And sometimes, he would taught me Korean.   He said it would be useful if I went to Korea someday. In exchange, I gave him some Japanese lesson.


Since I wanted to let him know learning was a boring things. However he managed to overcome them and sticked to his will.


"T-This is my favorite character."


JiSuk gave me a keychain.


"H-Hope you will like it. A-As a friendship token." He peeked at me.


"Thanks."


I scanned it and put the keychain into my pocket.


"Yours are Kamen Rider Build. I have one too. But mine is Kamen Rider W. My most favorite character."


JiSuk introduced the character excitedly. He kept explaining how powerful and justice the character was.


I thought I had raised a child.


"Hey, call me Onee-Chan."


"Hm? I don't want to be the dongsaeng"


"Stop beefing!" I slapped his head.


"O-Onee-Chan."


"Ha, good boy. Otoutou."


I ruffled his hair and laughed.


Maybe it was not that bad to have a Otoutou.


~


'Hmm this will be a good gift for him.'


I contacted the seller, and the price was quite cheap, it only costed 100 yen for the best.


However, it turned out to be a scam.


I got the box with nothing inside in the end. I decided to track the seller, and I found out it was a chubby boy. I tried to scare him so that he would not do so again. But, a tattoo guy showed up and picked a fight with me.


After the fight, the tattoo guy who named Eun Tae had realized that it was a big misunderstood.


"Brutal Beast..."


I turned my head back and saw a familiar face stood behind me, he looked nervous.


"Stop with that cringy nickname."


"I-I think I should tell you this..."



Facing forward, I began to sprint.


I could feel that adrenaline coursed to my veins. I must got there before anything happen.


~


"この野郎!!” ( You bastard!! )


I flying kicked the goon in his face.


His underlings were shocked to see my appearance.


JiSuk was curling up himself while shaking in fears. His crane was far away from him. I noticed his body was imprinted with cigarettes burns. And some yellow colour liquid.


I clenched my jaws, I waved my fist towards the goon. He appeared to be just a paper tiger. He was not talent in fighting, but he will bully the weakest. His underlings escaped as they knew they couldn't defeat me with the awful fighting skills they had.


"I will fucking kill you, MAMURA."


My fist kept touching the terrible face of his.


"I-I will tell my dad! Y-You are dead!"


Mamura closed his face with hands.


This didn't eliminate her thought.


"S-Stop, Y/N. I-I hate fighting!"


JiSuk grabbed my arm and cried.


"Oh yeah, you hate it...."


I stopped my attack and glanced towards the crying JiSuk.


"Let's go home okay?"


I picked up his crane and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.


~


"How many times do I have to say!"


The man in front me shouted with anger.


"Stop making trouble! I will not deal with it!"


He slammed the table. The water was dripping down from the it.


"....."


"Tch. Why are you my daughter."


I clenched my fist, I need to control my temper. As he was my namely call "Father".


I shouldn't attack him.


"Detention for you! Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out from your room. Maria! Watch over her."


'Tch, he only know DETENTION, DETENTION. What else does he know.'


I was lying on my king size bed.


It suppose to be comfortable and warm for anyone, but at this moment, I felt extremely disgusting.


'I want to leave this home.'


*Crack


?


I looked towards the window, a crack was on it. And later, someone threw some small rocks to the window, they seemed trying to grab my attention.


"Is there anything wrong miss?"


Maria asked from outside.


"Ah, no, nothing."


I carefully open the window and saw the boy.


He was the one who find me that day.


He shot a paper into my room and ran away.


I picked up the paper and opened it.


"W-What? I need to get out of here."


I pondered for a few seconds and decided to jump out from the window. Although I was in third floor, I insisted to jump.


I landed on the grass, the rocks cut my skin. Then, I climbed over the gate and rushed my way.


"Why? Why did you do this?"


The tears were rolling in my eyes.


I sprinted using my whole stamina, the pain on my feet was not important right now.


~


"Sobs....."


A man with black suit was pale and haggard. As if he was going to collapse anytime. The man wiped his cheek every few seconds. His eyes were all swollen.


There was only one man, a colourful photo of JiSuk in the funeral.


The JiSuk in the photo was beaming, as if he was the most happiest person in the world.


I could hold the heartbreak no longer and I fell to the floor in a disheveled heap as my grief poured out in a flood of uncontrollable tears.


The tears were salty.


This was my first time tasting them.


I stumbled to my way to the man.


I bowed towards him, the tears were rolling down from my eyes and to the ground. The wooden floor absorbed the tears and they vanished in a second.


Just like how JiSuk disappeared.


The man wiped his tears and brought me a steel small box.


"H-He said this is for his nonna."


The man's voice was trembling.


I paused and the tears kept flowing down the moment I heard the word 'nonna'.


"T-Thank you. A-And sorry, Sir."


I received the box and covered with my face.


I opened it, and saw the keychain he treasured the most, and a letter in it.


~


Dear Onee-Chan,


It's your little brother, JiSuk! Well, this is my first time writing a letter, I'm quite nervous. I'm thinking of giving this letter to you at your birthday!


Er... I don't know what to write, haha. I'm happy to meet you. Thank you for being my friend and no hating for me. After all, I couldn't make friends despite my leg.


After the graduation, I would like to take you to my hometown. I would like to take you to my favorite restaurant. I would like to take you to view the most beautiful scenery. Haha, I have many things I want to accomplish with you!


All right, Onee-Chan, you should try to smile. Your smile is the sweetest, loveable, warm-hearted,  as if an angel. You should try to make friends too. You deserve those. I hope someday you will tell me about your family as I'm really curious with it.


I plan to write those letters to you every years. >.<


From,
Otoutou

Ah... Now my tears had changed their target to the letter.


"JiSuk. My son. He went out that day. And when he came back. He looked, scared, pale, and nervous... Then, the next day.... When I. Opened his door. And. I saw his cold body. Lying beside the bed. The blood. Stained over the floor."


The man cried even louder. He kept holding his chest.


A name had appear in my heart.


I enraged.


I bit my lips.


The blood tasted like metal.


That bastard, he flied away from Japan to many countries after making the ruckus. Even his father was not able to find him.


He better hide himself.


I swear. I will kill him when I see him.
