Chapter 7: Never Ending Embarrassing Harassment

Months pass since then and everything is going fine, well at least that's what others see. To enlighten you of what I am talking about I will start with after I cried…

Days after that, my family put up a special security task force on the whole place, though it really helps out the place, the fact that I feel like there are eyes looking at you whenever and wherever you go is very creepy and terrifying to another extent. But luckily I have my nerves of steel and so far I am immune with everything they do, it took me a while though to convince myself that everything should be normal to my family's standards.

Anyway after all that, I safely level up to First grade!

Yay! New school facilities and most importantly….

I MIGHT be able to gain new friends!

….Well that is what I plan… and still praying for it to happen….

You see, for my whole stay in preschool, I only have Kazu and Chika as my friends. I don't actually know what happened but after the kidnapping case, most of the kids seems to be wary of me. When I tried to talk to them, they shiver and always look behind me but when I look back there is no one there. So with the kids around me being scared, gaining friends became a huge hurdle to overcome. T^T

Anyway, today is the first day of school and as usual the classic introduce yourself scenario is happening. Kazu and Chika is done with theirs and to be honest I wish I could make my introduction as cheery or cool as theirs but sadly reality is still hard so I end up with just saying my name before sitting down.

[Sigh… that was a disaster…]

After the dreadful introduction, the rest of the day is made for study session or more like getting to know each other. Since it is the first day there is not much lesson to learn and as usual I was alone in my seat while Kazu is surrounded by the guys and Chika is being overwhelmed by the girls. Everyone is very noisy and being alone in my seat made me a bit sad, I remember that this is what I usually feel back then at the hospital and to cheer myself I always hum a song that I think of.

Soon I was humming to myself. I was so immersed in my own thing that I didn't notice the noise died down and when I look at my classmates, I caught them staring at me. At that moment I am so embarrassed but I tried not to show it and continue to ignore them but I stopped humming.

[Waaaaaaaahhhhh!!!! What have I done?!! Now they think I am a weirdo!!]

School ended and so is my humiliation. On the way home Kazu and Chika is with me along with Sou-nii, Ryo-nii, and Fuyu-nee, we are all walking when Kazu opened up the topic of me humming and what made it worse is the Chika also put in his comments about it.

Well what they are saying is not bad since they are praising me but it is really embarrassing to hear them say "Sei voice is very beautiful, it's too bad that he didn't sing", "Sei-chama has an angel's voice" and many more that I am too embarrassed to think about. I think Sou-nii notice that I am too quiet and so he picked me up and let me hide in his shoulder until we reached home.

My face literally feels so hot from embarrassment.

----------------------------------------

The next day, I can feel gazes at me and I could hear them whisper but when I look at them, they also look away.

[Sigh… so much for new friends….]

Seeing my defeated face, Kazu and Chika cheered me up the whole day and didn't leave my side. Though I feel a bit bad since it seems like I am someone they needed to accompany everywhere. And so at the end of the school, while we are waiting for Sou-nii and the others to pick us up, I tug Kazu and Chika's shirt then they looked at me waiting for me to say something.

"Kazu… Chika… -menasai*… you not need… be with me all time…" (Sei)

[Waaaaahhh!!! Why is my speech so broken?!! This is so embarrassing!!!!]

"Sei-chan…" (Kazu)

"Sei-chama" (Chika)

I notice them look at each other before looking at me with a helpless expression.

"Sei-chan, you don't need chu apologwise… I am your fwiend so I will also want to be with chu" (Kazu)

"Sei-chama, I will bwe always wich you… no macher where you are becwause Chika is your kwight" (Chika)

With tears threatening to burst out of my eyes, I pulled the two of them and give them a hug.

"Ari-tou… Kazu… Chika…" (Sei)

[I am so blessed that I met them]

"Aww~ Can onii-chan have a hug too~?" (Sou-nii)

"Sou-nii?!" (Sei)

*Kyyuuun~*

"Onii-chan will always be with you too~ I will never leave Sei~" (Sou-nii)

"Same goes for me Sei-sama… I will always be here if you ever need my help" (Ryo-nii)

"Ryo-nii?!" (Sei)

"Well this is something that you don't see every day… Prince Souji being a bro-con" (Fuyu-nee)

[What?! Bro-con?! No no no no!!! Fuyu-nee this is a misunderstanding!! What do I do?! I ruined Sou-nii's reputation?!!!]

While I am having an internal battle about what I have heard from Fuyu-nee. I suddenly heard Sou-nii say something that I wish I didn't hear.

"Bro-con? Well of course! I mean how could you not dote my little Sei! He's the cutest!" (Sou-nii)

[Sou-nii?!!!]

"Well I guess I can't argue with that statement…" (Fuyu-nee)

[Fuyu-nee?!!! Don't just agree readily!!]

"Yes yes, Sei-sama is the cutest, that's why we need to go home so that nothing else happened again.."

[Ryo-nii as well!! I do agree that we need to go home but to accept the fact that is being said like it is true!!]

We all walk home and I thought everthing will be over once we arrive home but when Sou-nii and Chika relate to mom and Laire-nee what happened, they also shout out their never ending praise for me.

[Ugh…!!! I give!! This is a Never Ending Embarrassing Harassment]
