CHAPTER 15:
KAZE
I weakly leaned at the corner of the small cell under the sex den. Was I grateful that they did not break my body? Probably. They did not molest me. But I faced enough humiliation that hurt more than their physical torture that I’d rather die than live another day.
I felt like curling up in a dark corner, never to be seen by anyone as I hid in the shadows. Was this how my sister felt like when she stayed here? I hope not. But Aiba… He definitely felt worse than this.
Speaking of him, I watched as the cell door was opened. Aiba was pushed inside. I was not sure if he fell because the push was too forceful or if he was just weakened. Instead of the uniform he wore earlier, he was just wearing a large, tattered shirt. The dangerous glow in his eyes was replaced by a hollow look that resembled that time when I saw him in that red room many years ago.
His eyes momentarily looked at me before turning aside. He made his way towards a corner of the cell. If there was someone who was more broken, that would definitely be him.
I mustered my courage to edge closer to him and saw his face more clearly. His once smooth face that would sometimes be decorated by a cut or so, was now pale and filled with bruises. His neck and exposed right shoulder were also black and blue.
“Aiba-chan…” I started, wanting to touch him but he shirked away. It was so unlike him. “What’s wrong…?” I asked. It was the most stupid question.
I watched as his eyes roamed the small prison. I understood his familiarity and the desire for him to not return to this place. He grasped on his clothes tight. “Let’s get out of here…” I heard him murmur.
“Yes, we will get out of here,” I told him. “But, Aiba-chan…”
“Kaze-san, don’t,” he said as I was about to touch him again. “You’ve now seen what kind of person I am,” he said in a small voice. “I’m no king; I’m just a whore.”
“No…” I shook his head. “Don’t say that…” He seemed to loosen up a bit. He let me hug him to comfort him. “Aiba-chan, I think you’re the bravest. You’re not just a yankee king but you’re a brave person.”
“Kaze-san…” His eyes were already glossy with tears. His voice was like pleading to me that I should stop trying to make him feel better. But I still did.
“I don’t think I can thank you enough for saving my sister from those monsters,” I continued. Surely, he was trying to save me as well. I always had a negative opinion towards people who use their bodies to get what they want but I somehow understood their plight, especially with Aiba being like this.
I looked at him. It was as if he was trying to be strong. But I knew that one prod might break his defenses. “Aiba-chan…” I whispered. “It’s okay to cry. It’s okay.”
He also placed his arms around me and he started to sob. I knew that he was making sure that he was hidden as he cried. “Kaze-san… Onee-chan…” he mumbled as he cried.
At that moment, I realized that I had to be strong for my friend. “We’ll get through this together, Aiba-chan. You don’t need to… you don’t need to make any kind of sacrifices.”
He looked at me and at that moment, I didn’t know how I should react. He touched the large bruise on my cheek, making me wince in pain. His eyes was full of fire and determination but at the same time, soft and gentle. “Kaze-san, I promised to protect you, no matter what, in any way I can.”
“But…”
“If I have to give my life, I will. That’s what I promised.” What he said next made me shudder. “I will never break another promise to you, Kaze-san.”
