episode 1

The time was around 5 am or so in the morning, I was asleep in my bedroom on the second floor of my step-family's house. Yes that's right I am adopted, along with my twin sister Nina, she had the same face as me. The only difference between our faces were our eyes. She had red coloured eyes, I on the other hand had blue eyes. My hair colour was blue as well along with Nina's. She was a few minutes older than I was.

You might be wondering why we are adopted. Well, the answer is that our parents dead 4 years ago. Their death came as shocking news for both me and Nina. She especially had it easier to deal with it, after a few days or weeks she had already gotten over it I on the other hand am still destroyed by it. I ask myself everyday how it happened..

How they just... dead out of nowhere..

We were never told the truth of what had cussed the death of my parents. Only that a fire started on the fifth floor of their office building. I just couldn't believe that story, not without finding out for myself.

Taking in a deep breath

Yes there was a fire, yes it did destroyed the office building were both my parents worked at for 15 years. But I can't believe it,

Maybe it was just my mind playing with me

I couldn't tell if it was or not

While thinking all of this, I didn't notice someone entering my bedroom

" Brother wake up, it's time to get ready for school"

I opened my eyes only to find my sister Nina, she was already ready for school

She had full school uniform, ready for what is our first day in highschool.

But unlike her, I wasn't so happy for it. After taking in a deep breath before getting up, sitting on the side of the bed staring at her with little to no emotion on my face

"Are you alright brother? You don't look too well"

" No no, I'm fine just been overthinking that's all "

" Oh, well you should get ready for school, Okay. We can't be late for our first day of school "

" Yes, I get it. No need to remind me about it "

" Just making sure "

Taking in another deep breath, I got up and walked towards the window opening it before walking towards the bathroom.

Nina had already left by this time. Leaving me alone with my thoughts..

I stayed in the bathroom for about 15-20 minutes before coming out wearing school uniform

Although I didn't really like the uniform, I can't complain about it. It's all I got

After taking my bag and leaving my room walking down the hallway, I reached the stairs going down to the first floor. There I find Nina eating breakfast along with my step-sis Alexander she is a kind person when she wants to be. And very smart at that, although she doesn't really like me for some reason. Only caring for Nina. But I honestly don't care, as long as she takes care of my sister for me.

They were both eating breakfast while talking to each other. Not wanting to get included between the two, I walked towards the kitchen where I found my step-mom Lucia. She was a kind person unlike her daughter,

She saw me entering as she smiled calling me over with her hands.

I walked up to her, as she hugged me before whispering something to me

"Good morning Yuki, how was your night?"

I didn't know why but her voice always made me feel comfortable and calm, I couldn't really put it in to words, but it felt peaceful

"Good morning to you as well mom, and my night was as usual."

"You should really stop overthinking at night "

"So you know?"

" I have known you since you got to this house.. "

"Well I'll try to get more sleep tonight okay mom"

"That would be nice dear, now I need you to do something for me. "

She stopped hugging me before turning around to get something. Before turning back to me with a plate full of my favorite food…

"Here have it, it's all yours"

Her voice came out sweeter more caring I would say. And after Looking her in the eyes, I smiled before thanking her

"Thank-you for this mom, 'sob' you really know how to make me feel little…"

Although I had tears they were of happiness not sadness

"It's my pleasure dear, you are my son. I'll always be your mother whether it's by blood or not."

After that put my food on the table before I hugged her tightly

"Thank-you mom...."

"It's my pleasure dear, now go eat with your sisters okay"

"Yes, but can I talk with you when I get back from school today? "

"Oh? Sure we talk when you get back home alright"

"Thanks, I'll be taking my leave then. See you later today "

After talking with my step-mom, I walked out of the kitchen and went to the dining table, where my sisters were

" Morning"

"Hey brother, are you going to join us?"

"Yes, I am. "

"Oh how nice of you to join us, I didn't even think you would actually come with us to school "

"Yes, after thinking about it overnight. I decided to go

with you guys to school. Isn't that great "

"Not really"

"My thoughts exactly "

" Come on guys, it's our first day of High school "

"We know"

We both said at the same time, we may have our differences between each other. But we both agreed that we don't like school that much...

"I give up on both of you!"

"Don't be angry now sis"

"Yeah, we are just joking isn't that right Yuki"

"Yeah, whatever she said "

"You guys think I'll believe that?"

"Not really "

"We ain't actors "

" I hate you two!'

"Aww I love you too sis"

" I don't get it"

" I give up, I'll meet you outside Alex"

She got up and walked out smiling for some reason...

"Why was she smiling?"

"Beats me"

" As usual"

" Yeah whatever, pass me my bag will you"

"Huh?, ah sure I guess "

Looking around, I found her bag on the side of the couch I was sitting on

"Here, take it"

I took it, and gave it to her

"Thanks, I guess I'll be leaving as well, see ya "

"Yeah whatever sis"

And just like Nina, Alexander left as well.

"I guess it's just me and mom left… Breaths in and out, as he relaxes his back on the couch, I need to leave soon as well, I can't be late "

"That's right finish up and get going dear. It's your first day after all"

I didn't notice her at first, she was standing next to the door

"Yes mom, give me a minute to finish my food"

"Alright dear, I'll be outside if you need anything "

" Yes, I'll mom"

After 10 minutes or so I was finished with eating my breakfast, Now that's over and done with, I needed to get going, otherwise I'll be late.

I got up, and started fixing my corral, before taking my bag pack after all was said and, I walked outside.

Breaths in and out deeply taking in the view.

" A breath of a new day, a new chapter"

" Time to get going otherwise-"

"Otherwise I'll be late? Don't worry mom I got it"
