That One Year (Sequel to That One Day) Book 2

A Day In The Izumi House

Shiro POV

*A few weeks after last weeks chapters....*

The sound of an alarm clock rings through my ears as I lazily hit snooze. But either way I get up.

As I sit on my bed I rub the back of my head while yawning.

I get up. Walking around my house until I see a letter to me on the fridge.

Shiro,

Me and your father had an appointment for Brec this morning. We'll be back later.

-Love, Mom.

I sigh.

"Looks like Brec had an appointment."

I place my hand behind my head.
"Looks like I over slept again!"

I then over-hear the sound of a door opening and closing.

Looks like they're already home....

I walk over to the front of the house but I only see Brec.

"Where's mom and dad?"
"They had to go run a few errands."
She replies.

She walks over to the couch.

"Man. I had to wake up so early today..."
I laugh.
"I didn't."
She looks at me annoyed.

"That's because they didn't bother to wake you up."
I laugh.

She looks down.
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like I'm a burden to them sometimes...."
"What!?"
"I mean.... Who would want a sick kid...."
"Well....."
"Exactly! I mean it wasn't there choice to take me in--"
"Hey! You already know the story--"
"I know but!--"

She looks down.

"I have a bad feeling...."
"What.... What do you mean?"
"That..... Something terrible is gonna happen.... Something that'll effect both you, me, Yume, Honoka....... Everyone.... And.... It'll start with Yume's files. Whenever she decides to read them....."

She bends over and buries her head into her hands. I place my hand on her back and rub it.

"Hey..... It'll be okay.... Hey. How was your date with Riku?"

Her face flushes red. As she looks up.
"Y--You know what happened....."

I nod my head.

"That's right I do. And I'm going to kill him.."
"SHIRO!"
She hits my shoulder.

I burst out laughing.
"I'm joking. Ow, you hit hard."

She sighs.
"Yeah. I've been practicing by hitting you. Anyway, how are you and Laura doing?"

I tense up a bit from her name. But act causally.

"Okay. We've been talking alot but, nothing special."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah."
"Well then--good-kind-sir would mind as to tell me why your face is flushing red a bit?"

I quickly turn to the side as Brec laughs her head off.

"TH--THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING!!"
"Yeah right!"
"I--IT'S TRUE!"
"Yeah, yeah, okay I "believe" you."
"BREC!"

She burts out laughing again.
Until out of nowhere she yells "ow!" and places her hand on her forehead.

"

You okay!?"

"Yeah...... Just tired. I'm gonna go lay down."
"Okay."
"I'll tell you what happened at the doctors appointment later... Mkay?"
"Okay."

I watch as Brec goes up the stairs. A wave of worry washing over me.

I sigh as I look foreward at the black dark T.V.

I then hear a loud thund coming from upstairs.

"Brec....?"
I say a bit worried.

I don't hear a reply.

"Brec?"
I say. More worried ans nervous now.

"Brec?!"
I say. More louder. Fear inside my heart.

"Brec!"
I yell. My heart beating super fast. Fear taking over my heart.

"BREC!!!!"

I yell. I jump off from the couch and rush over to the stairs.

Running up the stairs, I see something that I wish I would've never seen.

"BREC!"

Rushing over to my adoptive little sister, who's laying on the floor unconscious....... As blood falls from her face and a bit in her hair.
