The Sunrise and Your Sins

Chapter 8

"(y/n) Sakanoshita." You say, shaking his hand. He raises his eyebrows slightly at surprise, no doubt at the mention of your family name.

"Sakanoshita?" Another guy with a buzzcut and a gruff voice says from behind Daichi.

"As in the King of Tokyo Sakanoshita?!" The third guy says, his voice higher in pitch. He wore his brown hair spiked up, with a single blonde streak right in the middle.

"Please excuse these two dumbasses, they're not the best socially." Daichi smiles apologetically, moving to invite you and Kuroo to join them on the couch. Behind you, Kuroo shuts the door.

"You said you're a Sakanoshita?" The buzzcut one repeats, staring at you intensely.

"Tanaka, chill." Daichi warns, looking over at him.

"Yeah Tanaka, you're gonna scare her away." The guy with the blonde streak jokes, punching Tanaka in the arm.

"Oh shut it, Noya." Tanaka says, shoving him back. "Sorry. My sister knew someone with that last name." He says, looking over at you once more.

"You're Saeko's brother?" You ask him, getting his attention. He looks surprised, almost a little scared by his sister's name being mentioned.

"How do you know my sister?" He asks, his voice taking on a threatening tone.

"Yeah, what's your business with big sis?" Noya asks, eyes darting between you and Kuroo.

"Take it easy, guys. We mean no harm, I swear it on my crew." Kuroo says in a peaceful tone. Tanaka and Noya lighten up, but continue to stare at you skeptically.

"Keishin Ukai was my brother." You say, causing the three men from Karasuno to sit straight up, simply from the mention of his name. "I know he dated your sister, and I want to talk to her."

"No one talks to big sis. Especially not strangers." Noya says, leaning back against the couch.

"You're Black Lungs' sister?" Daichi asks, looking at you with curiosity.

"Yeah. He raced under the name Ukai to get away from my family. And I know about the accident. I'm sorry Tanaka." You say sincerely, looking at Tanaka. You didn't know to what extent Saeko was injured, but you assumed that she had to have taken some amount of damage.

Tanaka shrugs, looking away. "It's all good. Why do you need to talk to my sister?"

"I need to know the truth about my brother. About how he died. And I heard that your sister and my brother were pretty close, I just want to talk to her about him." You say, nearly begging.

Tanaka sat for a second, thinking of a response. "My sister...she doesn't talk to many people nowadays. She hasn't been the same since your brother passed. Black Lung was her soulmate, or whatever." He says awkwardly, shifting in his seat. "I'm sorry, but I don't want to put her through reliving that night just for your sake. I really am sorry, (y/n), about your brother. He was a cool dude."

You sigh, taking a long drink from your cup. You had a feeling it would go like this, but you couldn't help feeling disappointed by the outcome.

"We think we know the truth about his death." Kuroo says, making everyone in the room look at him. "We know it wasn't an accident." You knew he was taking a risk saying this, telling these guys the suspicions you held. He was gamlbing with the only intel the two of you had.

"What do you mean the truth? His death was a tragic accident and that's that." Daichi says in an assertive tone.

"Daichi, it's okay." Tanaka says quietly, his eyes not moving from your own. "You two know the truth? Or just theories?" He questions you.
