''Onii-chan, The broom broke, Go buy another one please''
I was relaxing on the couch after a day of problem-solving with the Dark Company known as the Service Club, My cute little sister apparently though that I was too confortable because she want me to leave my precious couch in the middle of the night just so she can get another broom. Komachi-chan has truly become a real housewife, someone who gnaw at you to do things you don't want to, Well not this time Little sister, This kind of Epic relaxed state is not too reachable, I have to turn her down quickly!
''You see Komachi-chan, Onii-chan is too tired to please you, ask me tomorrow''
''I though you would say that, As expected of Gomii-chan but I really need that broom now, Kaa-kun break it when we were at school''
Oh, the top in the hierarchical order in the Hikigaya Household broke something? Maybe I will ascend in our family if Kamakura is punish?!
''Komachi, it's too late, What if something happens to me and you lose your dear Onii-chan?!''
''But would you still be able to bring the broom?''
Harsh, Komachi-chan is too cruel, Is this how it feels pops? Man this sucks, Even so, I don't want to give in to her whim
''Why do you need it now? Can it wait until tomorrow?''
''I Haven't done the cleaning yet, since tomorrow I would be going to study in my friend's house, I need to get it done now and knowing you, you wouldn't clean the entire house before Mom come back''
I was weighting my options here, on one hand, I could skip going to the store now and clean tomorrow the house, That sounds like a pain, on the other hand, I can skip the work tomorrow by simply buying that broom now. I activate one of my 108 Secret Skill, Lazy thinking and decide.
''Well, I guess I could go get some MAX Coffee on the way''
''Thanks a bunch Onii-chan, I love you!, Oh, that gave me tons of Komachi Points!''
''Yeah yeah''
I get up, regretting it almost instantly, grab my wallet, muffler and my coat, and then I proceed to leave my base the Hikigaya Stronghold and got on my quest, Mision: Find a broom, Asker: Komachi, Reward: Tons of Little Sister's love!
Okay even I am getting all pumped when I think about it, Maybe I'll level up when I complete this quest? I may get another skill for my Onii-chan Class! I entertain in those worthless thoughts proper from an RPG and finally reach the store. I grab the first can of MAX Coffee I found and then get on the Domestic session.
I found all types of brooms, rags and all kind of cleaning instruments, Oh, there are a variety of materials in the broom department, Wood, Plastic, Metal…. Well since Kamakura manage to break our wooden broom, I guess I'll buy something stronger, The metal one then? It seems strong enough and it's a material that doesn't break easily too.
I went to the cashier and pay for the things, With a bag with my can in one hand and the broom on the other, I walk on the street in the middle of the night, It's almost midnight but you told that to Komachi, I was looking out for some incoming danger when I heard a sound, It was a crying voice, no more like a begging voice?
I was about to get out of there when I saw them
A strange and disgusting man was attacking a girl on an alley, The idea of leaving cross my mind but I decided then to ignore my cowardly side, This guys was ripping the girls clothes, trying to see what was beyond, Dear God, he was going to take her on the alley? She was resisting so much and crying with a hurt voice, the man hit her a lot, slapping her and keeping her in place.
I got so close I could hear them already
'' Come on babe, you obviously want it, all the bitches are like that, first they are asking you to stop and then they beg you to pound on them more and more''
She was crying a lot but the man put his disgusting hand on her mouth to shut her up, It was so dark that I couldn't see their faces but I definitely had enough, I put my can on the floor and take the broom in my two hands, The girl was almost bare since her clothes were almost destroy, He take out his ''thing'' and was nearing her entrance. I run with all I have, been careful of not making too much sound, since this pig was so entertain with the girl's cries, I manage to get behind him, with my two hands, I hit his stupid head with the metal section of the broom.
I was so glad I was sent to buy this thing, I'm not exactly a hero, nor do I want to be one but, a girl kept her purity because of me so I was a little happy, this guy was bleeding from his head but I wasn't done with him, I need to knock him out before he come to his senses, He is apparently thirty years old or so, so he could easily overpower me.
I hit him again and then began to kick him on the balls, he was screaming a little but that was what he deserves, I heard that if you feel enough pain, you can lost consciousness, and I can assure you, for a man, there isn't a more painful place than that.
''Does it hurt you bastard?''
Oh, he was screaming a lot, Man this guys are a pain, they only act all high and mighty to people who are weaker than them, namely women, but when they fight someone of their size, they immediately show their coward natures. Be it school or real life, this kind of people are always lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity, I really hate this kind of people, just as much as I despise fakers.
I kick his head and finally make him lose consciousness, I call the police and told them about the attempted rape, thanks God I manage to hit him before he enter her or I wouldn't have accomplished anything. They told me that they would immediately try to arrest that bastard and I told them where he was lying. I was about to tell them about the girl so they could get her to a hospital when I manage to really look at her face.
A beautiful face with a few injuries, her lips were bleeding from the beatings, his smooth Black hair completely messy, perhaps that idiot grabs her by the hair? She was hugging herself and her coat and uniform were completely torn open. My Club mate, Yukinoshita Yukino was the girl this pig almost rape.
''Yukinoshita….''
''…''
She wasn't answering me, just looking at me with frightening eyes, She look so utterly broken it pains my heart just to look, I take off my coat and muffler and gave them to her, When I was about to put the coat on her, she shriek and push me away.
''Yukinoshita, Look I'm not going to hurt you''
''….''
''It's me, Hikigaya''
''…''
''We are still on winter so you may catch a cold if you continue being on the outside without clothes on''
''H-Hi-Hikki?''
She is calling me like Yuigahama, This isn't good, I'm not good with things like this , What should I do? I'm blunt and clumsy with words , well I was clumsy with actions too, I'm not a Manga protagonist so I didn't know how to be gentle or anything. I try touching her with my pinky but She got even more into wall.
''Yukino, I'm not going to hurt you okay? Let's go step by step, try touching my finger ''
''O-Okay''
She really was scared, If she was like this when she was almost rape, I don't want to think about what could have happen if she really was rape. Funny, even though I'm blushing for calling her by her first name, It appears that calling her like that soothe her a little, This time she put her pinky out and touch mine, She didn't look so frighten anymore, My face was getting redder and redder by the minutes, She first intertwined her pinky with mine, then she grab my hand from the front. She look so docile at that moment that I was getting angry at the unconscious bastard again,
''H-Hachi''
Okay, I didn't expect that, My heart is getting way to excited for my liking, Another nickname for me? Maybe she feels more at ease if we talk like this? I'll try my best for her sake then.
''Yes, Y-Yukino?''
I was getting really conscious of all this situation but I suppress those useless thoughts, She apparently needs me right now so I need to stay focus on Yukinoshita.
''I'm scared Hachi''
''I know''
''My body, I…''
''Don't think about it, I'm taking you home right now, can you get up?''
''He broke my leg when he c-c-c-c-aught me''
She really is trying her best to stay compose, she may not be as strong as I originally thought but Yukinoshita is strong in her own way, She finally let me put my coat on her, although she didn't let go of my hand. I put my muffler on her white neck with my left hand and grab my cellphone.
I talk with Haruno-san, It appears that her phone number was finally of use to me, although she initially joke around, I could feel the seriousness in her voice when I told her everything.
''Thank you Hikigaya-kun for saving Yukino-chan, I know that it may be a bother to you but could you please take her home? I need to talk to our parents about what happened, We may not be able to go to her house tonight so could you stay with her the night? Tomorrow we would get there''
Haruno-san was so serious I could only tell her not to worry and that I would handle this until tomorrow, I hag off the call and redirect my attention to Yukinoshita who was looking at me like a lost child.
''Haruno-san told me that her parents and her would visit you tomorrow, I will take care of you tonight''
''Why?''
''I want to help you okay, you are always helping other people out so let me help you this one time''
''But I-I, I'm not useful at all, even when that….man was trying to use me, I could only scream in the hope of someone helping me''
''Don't worry about that, Our little Yukinon can't always be the strong girl okay? It's alright to let me help you''
I take her on my arms and locate her on my back, I grab her thighs in the traditional form of a piggy back ride, Her hands were grabbing my neck a little too strong but I could manage.
I began our walk on the dark streets directing my body to her apartment that wasn't too much farther from here.
''Hachi, you are warm''
If my heart almost explode earlier, now I can assure you that it go Bam right there, like fireworks, my cheeks felt warmer for some reason but I didn't answer her. I take my can of MAX Coffee before we left the alley and I put it on my pocket but I got to leave the broom, Whatever, I'll buy Komachi another one tomorrow.
We reach her apartment and I make her take out her keys, It was a difficult task since we were this close but we manage, I told her earlier when we were walking here that I wanted to take her to a hospital but she only told me that she didn't wanted to separate herself from me. That sounds so like Komachi when she was younger that my Onii-chan mode activate on its own.
She only sprained her leg and not broke it as she originally thought so we were a little lucky, I guess, She have a first aid kit on her apartment so I can treat her there, tomorrow Haruno-san and her family can take her to a hospital, We entered her apartment and I put her on the couch and get to find the kit.
I finally found it after some minutes and get to work, I wasn't an expert on the subject but I manage to treat her leg without many problems. I finally seated on her couch and breathe a little, if she was in her normal Yukinoshita mode, she would already gave me a sarcastic remark about my healing methods, She was in the Pseudo Younger Komachi mode now so she only keep quiet while I treat her.
''Ah, would you like tea?''
I'm feeling really stupid, I'm basically offering her own tea to her but she didn't give me an insult because of that either
''Yeah, please do, I have black tea on the kitchen''
''Alright''
I brew the tea and serve it on two Pan-san cups, really obvious that she would have some of this. I gave one to Yukinoshita and I take the other for me. My cat tongue demands that I blow on a hot beverage before I consume it so, while I was doing that, I gave myself a rewind on this night's events, Those things really happen in real life huh? Hopefully that bastard would get on jail for what he did, It really felt good to hit him though. I should call Komachi because apparently I have to spend the night here, The serious Haruno-san ask me to keep Yukinoshita company so I could only oblige, Well, I would have done this anyway, Haruno-san or not so there isn't much of a problem.
''Komachi''
''Onii-chan, why aren't you here already? A lot of time has passed since you left''
''I'm spending the night at Yukinoshita's okay? I will send you a message with the explanation later''
''Oh, You are awfully serious, did something happen?''
''Something bad happen, I lost you broom too, sorry Komachi, I'll buy you another one tomorrow''
''You are cleaning the house Onii-chan''
I could only smile wryly at that
''Okay, have fun tomorrow''
''Okay, be careful''
I ended the call with Komachi and began sipping the tea while texting her what happen, She is big enough so she knows a little about those things, the thought of something like that happening to Komachi makes my blood ran cold but I immediately dispel the thought, I have to concentrate in the matter at hand now.
Yukinoshita has only been looking at me like a little girl for some time now, I'm glad that she isn't scared of me anymore, everything is easier this way,
''Would you like to take a bath Yukinoshita?''
''….''
''Yukinoshita?''
''Yukino…..''
''Huh?''
''Call me Yukino like before''
''Ummm, I really…..''
''Please Hachi''
''Okay Y-Y-Yukino, Would you like to take a bath?''
Woah, saying it conscious of what I'm saying is totally different from before, She nod to my question and I took her to her bathroom, I close my eyes while she was undressing and took her in my arms to take her to the bathtub, Woah, smooth, a girl's skin is way to pleasant to the touch. I need to stop having this thoughts, I took the torn clothes and take them to the trashcan, then I got in her room so I could find some clothes she could use, I found a nightgown that might work and take her that, I couldn't seek for underwear, sorry but as a man, I can't bring myself to do that.
I wash the cups and bring Yukinoshita a towel, I Wonder why she accept to let me find her cloths and carry her naked to the bathtub so easily? I mean, I didn't want to do it but I knew that she need a warm bath because of all the freezing air she caught when that bastard leave her almost naked on the street.
''Hachi, I'm done''
''Alright''
I got inside the room with my eyes close again, her voice help me find her and take her again, I was being extra careful so I don't touch her anywhere inappropriate, She already got her fill on that and it wasn't pleasant for her at all.
She got dressed rather quickly and didn't criticize my choice of sleeping clothes nor did she call me a pervert for not bringing underwear, although if I did bring her that, she would have call me pervert either way.
''Hachi, take a bath''
''Huh?''
''You carry me here without you coat on, you might catch a cold''
''I didn't bring any spare clothes with me Yukino''
''In my room, there's a Pan-san shirt for tourist from Destinyland''
''Okay, I'll do as you said''
I did bring my sleeping pants when I went to the store so I was saved, But my shirt was sweaty because of the hits I gave to that idiot. Yukinoshita was waiting for me on the other side of bath, She wasn't facing me but she refuse to leave the room for some reason, I was really nervous but I calm myself. She pass through something horrible, I can't be having this thoughts while she is like that. I ended my bath earlier and put the Pan-san shirt on, It was kind of cute actually, I think.
I took Yukinoshita to her room and place her on the bed, but just when I was about to leave, her hand encounter mine.
''Hachi''
''Yeah?''
''Don't leave me''
What should I do?, of course she wasn't okay but I assume that she was because of her acting a little normal, Will there be a time when I don't force my expectations on her? She is a girl who almost lost what makes her a maiden, I treated her facial wounds but you could still see the hit marks and her eyes were watering for the first time since I met her.
''Please''
''Okay''
Sleeping next to a girl is every high school student's dream but I didn't felt anything at all from it, I was only helping a broken girl. I distance myself as much as I could so she won't feel uncomfortable but she just reach for me like a kid, hugging me strongly. I felt something wet on my chest where she put her head
'' I-I was so s-scared''
''...''
''I almost lose hope, he told me a lot of horrible things and he hit me again and again when I tried resisting, I felt like an object''
''You aren't an object!''
I awkwardly put my arms around her small figure, trying to hug her back, She was always treated like an object by her parents and other people, always forcing their expectations on her, I wasn't any different in that aspect, but not anymore, She is a fragile person so I'll take care of her, I will not give her the fish but I will support her so she can fish it.
''You may feel bad now, worthless and all those things''
Sorry but I'm not good with words Yukinoshita
''But don't forget that you aren't alone, Haruno-san look preoccupied, Yuigahama and Komachi would be worried too, even I was worried about you when I saw you, We are here for you so''
She, who never show her real emotions, Who is always feeling deject and bad, Who have a problem she doesn't want to talk about. We are here Yukinoshita, I am here
''You can rely on us''
That make all her feelings come to the surface, she cry a lot on my chest, I passed that night whispering soothing words to her while she vent all her pain into the night, without us knowing, we fall asleep in each other's arms.
