Entangled Strings

Tutoring

Chapter 5-

"Why the fuck did you do that?!" Ayato growled angrily, slamming the door of their apartment the moment they got in. "As if I need any fucking tutor! Now you just chain me to that guy! Are you fucking insane?!"

Touka bit the inside of her cheeks. She knew this was coming, his constant nagging and bitching about how he'll make her regret for throwing him into this shit. But Ayato kind of needed it, not kind of, he really NEEDED it, he hardly went to class and only passed his tests due to flukes. His grades really weren't to be proud of and someone needed to keep an eye of that suspicious white-haired ghoul. No one would be better for the job than her unsocial, distrustful brother. Also, she didn't want to do it herself since her free time was too precious, it was killing more than two birds in one stone. And as last, it was payback for annoying her on purpose back at the café. Revenge is so sweet.

"Have you been listening to anything I said?!"

"Geez, relax! Aren't you constantly threatening him to stay away? And look, now you can keep an eye on him whenever you want, no need to waste time on a human tutor or more nagging from your teachers. As long as you perform well they don't give a shit about you, scaring away everyone."

The boy's glare didn't soften any bit. "I swear you're going to regret this."

The girl had no idea how her brother would do it, since this only gave her more benefits, but she'd wait and see... and beat him up afterwards. "Suit yourself, but you are going. At least you're starting to spend your time on more useful things."

"Don't start playing the holy saint out of nowhere! You're no better than me!"

"Yes, but I'm better at hiding it." The female ghoul replied as she allowed a snicker escape her lips. She went over to her bedroom, tuning out her brother's cussing and shouts. Closed the door and collapsed on her bed. Finally some piece and justice on her part.

She collapsed in her bed and stared, wondering how strange this day turned out to be. Worrying about Ayato's attitude, she wouldn't be surprised if the boy would insult his new tutor various times before he gets tired. Touka decided to close her eyes and listen to what her brother was up to. Her sharp senses picked on his grumbling and complaining. A smirk formed on her cheeks. She was sure that she'd enjoy the first day of his tutoring. Aside from the messy way the new year started, she finally felt like things where returning to the same old peace. Like that she allowed her mind to drown into unconsciousness and entering the realm of dreams

Twentieth Ward CCG branch.

It had been a few weeks since he arrived and it really felt good to be back. Not much seemed to have changed during his absence.

"First class Amon-san?! Great to see you back in Tokyo! How was your vacation?" Bureau investigator, Nakajima Yasunori greeted.

Amon Koutaro, 27 years old. A very tall man with short black hair and muscular built, a ghoul investigator who used to take care of the 7th ward. After a month vacation, forced upon him by the higher ups he was assigned to the 20th ward. He graduated from a young age and reached first class in merely a few years. He was partnered with Mado Kureo before his promotion and achieved many things during their partnership. Many colleagues admire him for his strength and willpower, a perfect example for the junior investigators. They would often compare him with the CCG's Shinigami, Arima Kishou.

"Nakajima-san, it's been a while. It's a pleasure to see you again." The tall man replied.

"Where did they send you?" Nakajima asked.
