Chapter 1 - The start of Everything

It was morning like any other day, a little bit hectic yet peaceful. It would be more accurate to say that, it was peaceful except if a certain lady didn't shout and yell in the morning.

"Izumi! You idiot! I told you that i don't want egg for breakfast!"

"Don't be so annoying Yuri Nee-san, i don't have time to cook something else. You're 23 now, you should not be picky with food."

A pair of siblings were having breakfast like any other day. But it seems that the woman were not having the best of morning, looking at her displeased expression.

".... Izumi, you know that i basically raised you on my own right?"

The woman that was called by her younger brother as Yuri said with a serious expression.

She has a short hair that was styled into a bob cut. Though, her sharp dark brown eyes made her quite intimidating. Her thin pink lips were shaped into a heart shape, it looks so sexy and would drew many breath from others.

"I know, and you don't have to say it like that, i'm not going to make something else for you. I'm going to be late if i do that."

The young man named Izumi replied with a frown on his face. He was wearing a red school blazer over a white shirt underneath it.

His black pants were slightly longer hiding his ankle. He keep eating his food without minding the woman that was complaining in front of him.

"Tch... Fine! You stingy brat."

She slammed the table with enough force to create a loud banging sound. For someone who is complaining that she doesn't want egg for breakfast, she was eating it like a hungry wolf.

After eating the food clean, Yuri then stood up from her chair.

"Izumi, I'm leaving first so make sure you lock the door and put the key under the flower pot."

She was about to take the dishes to the dishwasher but Izumi stood up and stop her.

"Just leave it there, I'll clean it later."

"Okay then. Aahh! I'm going first Izumi, you don't be late too!"

Yuri checked her watch and then sh shouted as she ran toward toward the door. For someone whose wearing an office outfit and a skirt, she was running quite fast.

"Be careful on the way Nee-san!"

Izumi shouted but he could only hear a muffled sound as a reply. He then let out a sigh and looked at the empty plates and glass, with a dexterous movement, he then take all the dishes away from the table to the sink to clean it.

"Well, i wonder what kind of part time job should i do? I'm sure I don't want to be a model..."

He said to himself as he pondered what he should do after going home from school. He tried to apply for a part time, but all of it were from modelling agency. All he could do at that time was twitch his eyes in annoyance.

He tried to apply as a clerk in a small store, but the owner told him that he was best suited as a model. He then tried again to apply as a helper in a delivery agency, that too turned him down saying that he was best suited as a model...

Not to mention that every time he came out to town to have fun, he always got scouted to join a modelling agency...

Just thinking about that made him became angry with frustration. So he let out a heavy sigh to calm himself.

After he was done cleaning and making sure that everything has been locked and there's nothing left he has forgotten. Izumi then proceed to go outside while slinging his bag on his shoulder with his left hand.

He then locked the door with his free right hand.

"Now then..."

He said as he looked down toward the small flower pot beside the door. Shaking his head once he turned his body to look around him.

"Nope..."

Izumi flung his key upward and then catching it before he put it inside his pocket.

Walking with a slow and easygoing steps, Izumi noticed that it was already 08:30am, he was definitely late for first period.

"I'm already late anyway... might as well take it easy."

He started to hum a tune he heard from anime he watched last night. As a healthy 17 years old, like any other kids his age, he was interested in Anime, Light Novel and Manga.

Although some were shunned because they were too into it, Izumi was by no means fond of looking down on peoples. So he was quite protective to those that has the same hobby as him.

Being an Otaku is not a sin, although they could at least contains their passion when they are in public. Even if he liked to watch and read Anime, he was not an Otaku.

He liked to watch and read those because he was too tired of being around people. His above average figure were quite a bother to him

Even if many would envy him for having such a perfect figure, he was by no means happy or wants to abuse it.

That's why he was tired of being asked to enter a modelling agency... He just want to be ordinary and enjoy his time without people looking at his direction.

Izumi realized just how his body looked like, he knew just how handsome he is. He was not trying to be narcissistic, it was all the truth.

His god sculpted body were envied by many men and loved by many women. But, Izumi knew that his Nee-san which is Kanzaki Yuri, hate it when he was using his looks to get what he want.

That is why he hated how he looked. And that is why he doesn't want to flaunt his body. To Izumi, even though he sometimes doesn't listen to Yuri's words, he always know when she really hate and dislike him for something.

As angry and nagging as she is, Yuri never truly means what she said. She was what peoples call a Tsundere, is what Izumi concluded after watching some Anime.

Yuri have always put Izumi as her first priority before anything else. So he knew that her scolding and shouting at him were nothing but her being bitch to annoy him.

Though it might have been his fault she became like that.... Izumi let out a sweat drop as he remembered the time when he told her that he wants to marry her back then....

The beating and animalistic words from her were still fresh in his mind. He was left hospitalised for a week after that...

Izumi and Yuri were left together after their parents passed away when Yuri was still a Second year of High School.

Although they passed away, Yuri and Izumi were not too sad about it. Their parents have always been away from home and never take care of them.

All of Izumi's needs when he was a kid were being taken care of by Yuri alone. So in a sense, he saw her as his own mother that has raised him since he was nothing but a child.

So to make sure that he was well fed and taken care of, Yuri took many part time jobs when she was in high school. It continued until she was in college and graduated from it.

She worked so hard to provide his tuition. Although their parents left them with a lot of money, but she was adamant on working and save up for the unforseen future.

Though Izumi just found out about it when he entered High School. He was surprised and annoyed at her for the rest of the day that day. He was angry at her for working so hard even though they had enough to live normally until Yuri and Izumi graduated from college.

the answer he got from her were hurting his heart for a while.

"I do that so you don't have to work hard now."

She said that with a gentle smile and ruffled Izumi's hair.

That was why Izumi respected and love her a lot. For her to work so hard for him were something that he cannot repay in his live. All he could do for her were to make her proud by studying properly and being number one in every subjects.

Though, that doesn't mean he need to be a good student. Being smart and being a good student is two different matters. He has been fell too deep to turn back.

In order for him to not burden his big sister, Izumi has been doing something bad and he would definitely be hated by Yuri if she found out about it.

From blackmail, threaten to fighting, he would do anything to gain some money. That's why he was hurt when he heard that she was working hard so that Izumi could enjoy his time as a student.

He was feeling guilty and regretted for doing something shady behind her back. Although, he has stopped now doesn't mean he could turn back to being a good guy.

As he was thinking about the past, he didn't realize that he has arrived at the front gate of his school.

The school were not that far away from his house, it was only 15 minutes of walking until he arrived at the Akamu Gakuen. *赤霧/Akamu. Also mean Red Mist. If I'm not wrong. tehee 😉

That's right, that was the school name. Izumi didn't know why it was named that. But he didn't care about all of that, as long as it was near and affordable, he was fine with anything. Ignoring the Glaring look from the school security, Izumi walked past the gate with a slow steps.
