A sacrifice.

Both Ritsu and me are looking at each other with confusion because this is weird not just because Ren is asking us to stay away from Kuro but also it's his own twin brother. Even Ritsu who knows more about the triplets than me is shocked by Ren's words. Ritsu grabs the phone from my hand forcefully, she leans forward because she wants some explanation from him.

"What do you mean by that, Ren?"

Ren looks around the living room and fixes his sitting.

"I have people that have been monitoring both Aiko and Kuro, Kuro has been getting influence from our uncle and we both know that Kuro is not as bright as me. I believe right now he starts to point toward him instead of my father, I heard that Kuro has been ignoring my father's orders because he prefers to listen to our uncle now, and as we both know that uncle Isao start doing so many suspicious things behind our father's back."

I lean toward Ritsu and look at Ren while raising my eyebrows.
