@imxto – Liked for a Yakunan Starter! Yakunan & Akemi
Footsteps. Shit!
Did he lock the basement door? No. She was supposed to coming home later today after her club, right?
“You,” he growled at Saki, shoving a sock in her mouth and taping it into place. “Stay quiet and I won’t kill you!”
Yakunan ran upstairs and entered the living room, clicking the lock shut.
“Welcome home, Akemi,” he greeted, leaning on the door in anticipation of if she found out what he was doing. Eleven weeks. He’d been doing this for eleven entire weeks and he feigned sickness this morning. “How were your classes today?”
“Oh, hey! How are you feeling?”
Akemi had already changed out of her school shoes and instead opted to just walk around in socks. The question was probably useless- given that Yakunan looked just as pale and sweaty as he did this morning. Yet, she asked just out of mere reflex. She groaned in response to her brother’s question, shrugging her backup off and onto the couch. It made a dull thud in response.
“Ugh, busy. We were doing the usual stuff, but then Kokona was like oh where’s your brother I haven’t seen him today and obviously I was like uh he’s just sick and then suddenly everyone was asking if you were okay and--”
She talked endlessly for the next minute or so, walking from the living room to the kitchen- her voice growing louder and then distant again. During the conversation, she explained how she was going to stay after for her club but then remembered that they needed groceries- and that Yakunan was sick. In the process of her walking around, she put a mental note of things they needed. Akemi didn’t spare much of a glance to Yakunan- or even notice the door he was standing in front of. After a brief moment, she walked back into the living room.
“What did you want for dinner?”
