THE GRUDGE THAT BURNS

For the satisfaction of revenge

...***...

The Old Man left Yuuto who was still dumbfounded, he just silently looked at the Old Man's departure, then he glanced towards Mikoto who was standing beside him.

"What's yuuto?. Did he say anything to you?." Mikoto became curious about what the priest whispered to Yuuto, leaving Yuuto speechless.

"No, he just said I have to be careful. Because coming home late is dangerous for a child of my age." As if woken up from his imaginary world, Yuuto stuttered slightly listening to Mikoto's question.

"Souka?." There was a suspicious feeling in Mikoto's mind, because the priest was very clearly looking at her earlier. The pastor must have known and realized his existence. Maybe Yuuto just didn't want to discuss what the priest whispered to him.

But it doesn't matter, he won't see the priest again. He should be careful if he does not want to be disturbed by the priest. His grudge was still not avenged, so he would not let that happen.

Next day.

At school.

"Ne Yuuto, after I drop you off to class I'll head for my class." Mikoto smiled stiffly looking at Yuuto.

"Good, arigatou mikoto kun." Yuuto smiled happily. He was very happy to have a friend like Mikoto who always paid attention to him.

"Ohayou hase kun." Sapa Hase Sensei with a friendly smile as he looked at Yuuto as he was about to enter the teacher's office.

"Ohayou hase sensei." Reply Yuuto smiled slightly, and his eyes glanced towards Mikoto.

"Mikami nii." Inner Mikoto, she felt sad because she could not reach her brother anymore. Sad because of his current condition.

"Yosh, your smile is starting to be nice hase kun. See you in class. Don't forget to be happy." Hase Sensei then walked into the teacher's office, leaving Yuuto while a small shuffle of Yuuto's hair.

"Mikami nii, even you called yuuto by my name. And use my name." Inner Mikoto again. There was a feeling of pity in his heart, and he did not expect that his stepbrother would become a teacher at this school.

"Is your guilt so great nii san?." Mikoto felt sad, Daan that sadness could be felt by Yuuto, just like her anger in the 2nd grade days ago.

"What's mikoto kun?." Yuuto saw Mikoto's face change drastically. What happened to Mikoto, why did her mood change?.

"It's okay. I'm just jealous of you, who has a good homeroom." Yes, Mikoto remembers that time very much. His homeroom teacher even blamed himself. Always agree with what the students in his class say, and he is always a victim of mistakes he never made.

"He?. Were you bullied in your class, Mikoto Kun?. Didn't your homeroom teacher defend you?." Yuuto became curious about how Mikoto was in her class, and he just remembered wanting to ask how Mikoto was in her class.

"No, I'm fine." Mikoto gave a small smile as if trying to convince Yuuto that he was fine.

"Yokatta ne, mikoto kun." Yuuto smiled with relief at Mikoto's words, it was enough that he was the victim of bullying.

"Later you'll find out everything, yuuto." In the heart Mikoto smiled faintly. Perhaps one day Yuuto will know the reason why Mikami called Yuuto by the name Hase, and why Mikami used the name Hase as well.

When the clock comes home.

Yuuto and Mikoto had just dropped out of class because Yuuto was picketed, and he was working on it alone.

But when he wanted to come out. "Guwaa." Yuuto is shocked because his foot stumbles upon something, and the culprit is Youichi Yuuto's classmate who's been waiting for him from earlier outside.

"You cleaned it up for a long time, huh, bastard." Youichi pulled the collar of Yuuto's back shirt, making Yuuto surprised.

While Mikoto only paid attention to what happened to Yuuto. He noticed the next incident, and then he would act by possessing Yuuto's body.

"Aa, what do you want youichi san?." Yuuto stared fearfully at Youichi who was also one of the students who bullied him.

"No. It's just that I want to punish you for what you did to yuko and ryoutaro." His whisper in Yuuto's ear, made Yuuto surprised, clearly visible on his face. And unexpectedly Youichi instead poured a trash can into Yuuto's head.

"AHAHAHA YOU DO DESERVE A FUCKING BASTARD!." Youichi laughed out loud as he managed to prank Yuuto. That was how he did to Yuuto, which was to pour dirty trash on Yuuto.

"Until when are you going to do this youichi san?." Yuuto felt annoyed that he was always being played by Youichi in this dirty way. While Mikoto who saw that was furious, she possessed Yuuto's body.

Furthermore, Youichi's laughter stopped because his mouth was stuffed with garbage by Yuuto. "Your laughter is so noisy Youichi san" Yuuto's eyes turned red, he smiled grinning, making the hair goosebumps looking at him.

"Emmmph!!!." Youichi tries to rebel, but Yuuto's hand grip is very strong, making it difficult to breathe because his mouth is stuffed with garbage.

"Kegh keqh bffhh!." Yuuto seemed to be holding back his laughter when he saw Youichi's terrified expression, for some reason he wanted to laugh, as if something was tickling his stomach.

"WUAHAHAHA SHIT LIKE YOU DESERVE TO DIE!." There is a desire for happiness that cannot be expressed in words. He also did not understand, but his mind felt airy to make him laugh strangely loudly.

DUAKH

"PREMPPHHHHH!!" The last shout from Youichi's mouth before he met his end as his head was strongly slammed into the wall right behind him.

"You don't deserve to live, trash like you don't deserve to breathe!!." Yuuto released Youichi's body that was already drenched in blood, he still laughed because of that strange feeling. "Just pollute the air around!." Yuuto grumbled in an annoyed tone, while wagging his nose as if there was an unpleasant smell smelled by his nose.

Yuuto looked at his hand covered in Youichi blood, for some reason there was a feeling of pleasure that made him laugh. "Why am I laughing?." Yuuto said strangely. He did not understand how he was feeling right now, but he asked himself why he could laugh?. "This feeling!. It feels like something different about me now!." His turbulent anger at that moment fulfilled a very different desire. "God!. This is what's called a burning revenge." His words were truly describing how his mood was at that moment.

"You are a shadow of my past, yuuto." Mikoto also felt that different sensation. The feelings of their hearts that have fused into one. A burning grudge!.

Is that a grudge?.

Next.
