STEPBROTHER (HAIKYUU X KUROKO NO BASKETBALL SUMMER CAMP)
57

"Forget it, I don't want us to ruin this moment with my stupid question." Ushijima smiled, he could feel Akashi's dislike with his question just now. And he hurriedly walked first because he did not want to ruin the atmosphere that was good enough in the design this morning.

"Hey, Akashi! Want a race with me? Anyone who arrives first at the bus stop in front of there will be treated to a meal by the loser, how?" challenge Ushijima who tried to shift the topic earlier.

"Do you want to switch the conversation, Ushijima-san?" ask Akashi.

"What talk? Never mind if you don't want to run, I'll run first and get ready to lose to me. See you's...." Ushijima started to run ahead of Akashi, obviously Akashi spontaneously came running because he did not want to lose to Ushijima.

He could not imagine Ushijima would make fun of him for losing a run, after all Akashi himself was a competitive child who would never want to lose anything. Hence Ushijima used the opportunity to make Akashi forget the chatter that had previously caused tension between them.

"Prepare to treat me, Akashi Seijuro!" ushijima shouted while running.

Akashi, who had been left far behind, smiled at Ushijima's provocation, slowly starting to forget Ushijima's earlier remarks and trying to use the rest of his energy to pursue Ushijima.

Until the middle of the escape, suddenly he could hear someone who spoke in his mind. The person who feels called by Ushijima's words before, is none other than Akashi's own personality alter.

"Didn't he talk about me before, Akashi?" eijun asked which made Akashi start to slow down his speed.

"Come, Akashi! I've never had a conversation with Wakatoshi, going to trade places with me?" eijun's bargain began to make Akashi uncomfortable.

"This is my body, stop acting!" rejected by Akashi.

"Ups... You don't seem to like it, are you afraid that I'll steal his attention? Not that you hesitated to receive your brother's attention, have you now begun to open up to learn brotherhood with him?"

Akashi did not answer anything, he ran back because he did not want to make Ushijima suspicious. He tried to shift his mind by looking at the scenery along the way.

"You're trying to ignore me again, you're so selfish that you don't want to share your body with me. Remember that you'll need me later, Akashi!" snapped Eijun whose voice increasingly filled Akashi's mind.

"You're all I need for the match, so shut up!" akashi's muttering command slowly moved his lips. It seemed like he could not stand the nonsense Eijun said until he no longer focused on running, his gaze also began to expand and run without direction.

"You're so funny, is this really your true character? Ah yes, I want to give you a shocking fact that you hid in the past that had disappeared?" tawar Eijun who is like talking about the figure of Akashi Seijuro who once took over the body of Akashi in the past.

"Stop mentioning anything about the past, you don't have to say anything about it anymore either. He's gone to sacrifice for me, even I think he's better than you."

"Yes, you're right. He was a good boy, if I wasn't going to sacrifice for you. But that's not the part I want to tell you, because I want to tell you that you're a broken product." Eijun laughed out loud, his voice making the contents of Akashi's head like he wanted to boil because he was upset.

"Just imagine, which normal person has more than one personality? That's why I told you that you're a broken product, you don't realize that at any time you can create another personality. Isn't that a broken product?"

"Stop saying anything else" Akashi said.

"You're a broken product, Akashi. You're not absolute and perfect, you've humiliated your father. Your birth is a misfortune in our family, without us you would be nothing. You -"

"Shut up!" akashi shouted, cutting Eijun's words and trying to drown Eijun deep into the darkness inside him. He tried his hardest to make sure Eijun was completely drowned, to the point of not being aware of Ushijima's presence coming back for worry, Akashi recklessly ran without direction and stopped grimacing in pain.

"You okay, Akashi?" asked Ushijima who was slightly bent over to match her height with Akashi's body.

Akashi immediately regained his senses and shook his head, along with the pain in his head that began to disappear. But one of his hands was still above his forehead which had been sick and covered some of his hair.

"If you're not feeling well, we'll cancel today's plan. Maybe I'll call a taxi now to take us home" Ushijima said.

"No need, I'm fine." Akashi immediately put his hand away from the forehead. That was when Akashi could see the shocked look from Ushijima's eyes.

"What's up, Ushijima-San?" tanyakanya.

"Some of your hair is bleached, as I recall you have whole red hair." Ushijima's words just now difficult to cause discomfort in Akashi, he immediately opened his backpack and took a hat that some days are reluctant to be used again by him. He quickly put on the hat and hid away the white part.

"We can be late for dinner tonight, let's go shopping!" akashi's orders are trying to assume everything is fine. Although actually he still feels chaotic when considering Eijun said the product is damaged.

Ushijima himself who had seen Akashi's hair remembered the words of Chef Tsubasa and the driver yesterday, he had a little doubt before the person in front of him at this time. But that doubt began to disappear, when he realized that Akashi's personality was still like Akashi who a few minutes ago in his acquaintance. He does not know the cause of the reason why Akashi's hair is white, even though his body is not taken over by other personalities. But clearly, talking about it is not the right thing to do now.

"You've lost, buy me a snack later." Ushijima tried to melt the atmosphere, usually he is not a person who likes to talk first.

"I know," lamented Akashi who began to remember how embarrassing he could lose the race with Ushijima.

"And your act of losing focus earlier was really annoying, are you cosplaying to be the second Tendou? You want to be worried about me huh," Ushijima's tease that made Akashi's forehead wrinkle up.

"I'd rather be worried by a member of Kiseki no Sedai than you" he said.

"It's good that you have a friend who can worry about you, even if your friends are very annoying." Ushijima still clearly remembered how annoying Kagami Dan Aomine was during the meeting.

"Hey, Ushijima-san. Anytime you can teach me how to play Volleyball as Setter, I'd like to try to give you the ball every once in a while." Akashi did not turn to Ushijima, but his words were able to please Ushijima.

"I'll reconsider. After all you are also my sister so I have no reason to reject you outright," Ushijima responded with a happy smile.
