Santri Famiglia's

Not Wanting to be Hated

Eiji immediately picked up his things without a word. His soul is overcome with anger. Without changing clothes, he hurried to the door.

The three members of his team seemed confused by Eiji's attitude. Sanubari first asked, "Where are you going?"

However, late. Eiji had disappeared behind the roughly shifted door. His steps were wide and fast.

Sanubari hurriedly followed. That sturdy-looking figure continued to step without even turning his head.

"Sir Eiji!" call Sanubari again. He pulled the man's left arm. A fairly effective way to make the team leader postpone his trip for a moment.

Still without turning around, Eiji said, "Stay here with Sai and Renji. Tell them, the responsibility here I leave to Sai. I have a sudden business."

The confusion made Eiji almost forget his presence in this prefecture for official travel. Closing his eyes for a moment and taking a deep breath, Eiji tried to calm down. He removed Sanubari's hand which prevented him.

However, the hand was gripping firmly. Don't want to just let go. More than that, the teenager demanded an explanation.

"Rushan? Does that mean you're looking for Anki?"

"It's none of your business."

Ignoring Eiji's words, Sanubari again said, "If it's like that, I'm coming!"

Eiji. Finally, he looked too. His mind weighed in on Sanubari's speech. When compared to him, Sanubari was indeed superior in martial arts.

However, Eiji was not planning on having a fight. Whenever possible, he wants to solve the problem with the path of diplomacy. After all, he didn't know for sure what was really happening. He also did not know how to return to Osaka this late.

"No, I'll go alone. Now, let go of your hand! I didn't have much time," she broke up later in a very calm voice, though her heart was churning wildly.

"Let me come! I'm also worried about Anki, "forcibly Sanubari welcomes.

His grip strengthened. His gaze was straight, piercing through Eiji's dark iris in the dimness of the outer corridor. His gaze was met with a sharp look from Eiji.

"Please, Brother Eiji! Let me come with you!" pinta Sanubari again full of affirmation.

Indeed, Sanubari wouldn't have helped if he was left here because he didn't understand electronics. However, Eiji did not want to get too involved in his personal affairs. What's more, the risk can be hostile to Onyoudan.

Recalling Sanubari's story before leaving for Osaka, he had involved Sanubari too far. He owes Sanubari a great debt. Eiji also nodded.

"Anki. I'll look for him."

"I'm Anki's friend. Can't if I'm ...."

"Anki doesn't like me getting into this organization. What would happen if I harmed her friend because of this organization?" Eiji smiled rhetorically. Sometimes not a question that demands an answer from the interlocutor.

Observing the confused-looking Sanubari, Eiji continued saying, "He will hate me when that happens. I hope you can understand this, Sanu. As a brother, I certainly don't want my own sister to stay away from me. That's why I can't take you."

Sanubari's grip weakened after hearing the sentence. Being hated by someone is no fun. He's experienced it. He did not want to be the cause of the estrangement of relations between brothers.

"Thank you for your concern" Eiji half-whispered.

He left Sanubari standing by. For some reason, Sanubari's feelings lately are more sensitive than usual. Events that should not be related to him, again reminding him of himself.

He knew that being hated was bad, but he himself had hated his own father. Sanubari.

Although their togetherness was quite shady, but so much goodness Aeneas had poured out on him. It's just that one night's events hardened Sanubari's heart for Aeneas. A series of subsequent events left Sanubari's petrified heart adrift erratically.

Sometimes, he wants to make up. Sometimes, he doesn't want to forgive. These feelings are like a wheel that keeps turning. To this day, he still questions the truth of his actions.

Sai and Renji wonder the truth of the news from Sanubari. The traditional Japanese room was silent for a while, until Renji decided to speak.

"Why was Sanubari so long? Did he run away with Eiji and leave us?"

"Anki's missing. Even if he leaves, Eiji Senpai will definitely find Anki." Sai expressed his opinion.

"I heard that too. Ah, crap! Why did the bad news come at a time like this? In the end, it was the two of us who had to clean up the abandoned work," complains Renji ruffled his hair in annoyance, "play away! Does he know where Anki is?"

Sai just winked at the shoulder of the unsure omen. He knew, Eiji always had a way to obtain what he aimed for. However, Sai cannot guess where Eiji will go.

As with Anki, she also does not know where she is now. When he woke up, he was in a room that was unfamiliar to him. More spacious and luxurious than his own room.

A long chain tied his legs and hands. Not too tight, but he can't step more than a meter from the bed. The walls of the room are also strange.

He was screaming for help while hitting the wall shortly after waking up, hoping that people outside could hear. However, just after he did, a weapon was pointed at him. Anki no longer dared to touch the wall. The girl was scared in bed.

"Brank ...."

He hugged his sobbing feet. Tears soaked his pajamas. She hoped it was just a dream or her brother would come to pick her up soon.

The seconds passed more slowly for him. Until finally, the sound of the door opening made him flinch. His head was raised, looking at the knocking of the approaching shoe.

Men in suits with reddish hair walked elegantly, followed by a woman carrying a tray filled with food. The man smiled. Her face was beautiful, but she could not shake Anki's fear.

The woman carrying a tray of food put her luggage on the nightstand next to the bed. After that, he said goodbye.

The man sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing Anki's wet cheeks with his hands. "How did you sleep? Why crying? Did you just have a nightmare?"

"Don't touch!" Anki brushed off his hand.

He's shuffling away. However, the chains that bound him made the girl's movements limited.

The man scowled. "Oh, sorry. What is this chain that scares you and thinks I'm the bad guy?"

The man raised the chain. Anki did not answer. He stared warily at the foreign man before him.

"I'll teach you a lesson about people who treat you badly. Get your hands! Let me take off the handcuffs that bind you," he said, smiling back as he reached out.

Anki just looked at him suspiciously without moving in the slightest. He doesn't understand what happened to him. Even if the man in front of her had just offered to untie her, she remained terrified.

"Come come! Just chill! I'm not a bad person."

No matter how handsome the man in front of him is, a stranger is still a stranger. Anki's body refused to let down the vigilance. Moreover, he was alone and chained. His position is not very favorable. His heart was beating unbecoming.

Because Anki never responded, the man went up to the bed. Anki's survival instinct immediately moved his legs. The foot landed hard on the man's face.

"Go! Don't come near!"
