Jin glanced at Kazuya and bit his lips. He was nervous, but he knew he had to tell Kazuya the truth. Kazuya tilted his head, waiting patiently, but he was nervous too.
“I….” Jin swallowed hard, “Tatsuya found out…”
Kazuya’s eyes widened.
“I didn’t tell him though!” Jin exclaimed, “I swear I didn’t…. I’m sorry.”
Kazuya slowly shook his head.
“There is another thing…” Jin mumbled, “That house…. I’ve been there before.”
“What?” Kazuya mouthed, he stared at Jin in shock.
“I…. I saw your mother being killed,” Jin continued.
An uncomfortable silence set over the apartment. Jin glanced at Kazuya.
“If I would have known that it was that house or she was your mother, I wouldn’t have taken you there,” Jin mumbled, “After I saw the kitchen, I….”
Kazuya violently shook his head. Jin stared at him as he stood up. He saw tears running down Kazuya’s face. Kazuya bit his lips and ran to his room.
“Wait!” Jin quickly followed, but Kame was faster and locked the door to his room.
Jin leaned against the door and sighed. He grabbed the doorknob and slightly shook it.
“Please open up,” Jin mumbled.
There was no respond from inside.
“Kazuya, please!” Jin begged, “I want to talk about this!”
Jin heard a muffled cry from inside. He started shaking the doorknob, but nothing happened.
“I’ll wait here until you come out, Kazuya, I will,” Jin said and sat on the floor.

An hour later, Tatsuya returned home. He frowned at the silence inside the apartment. He walked towards Kazuya’s room and saw Jin sleeping on the floor. He rolled his eyes and slightly kicked Jin. Jin, in shock, jumped up and blinked.
“Why did you kick me?!”! Jin exclaimed.
“Why the hell are you sleeping on my floor?” Tatsuya frowned.
“Kazuya locked his room!” Jin pointed at the door, “He won’t talk to me!”
Tatsuya sighed and knocked on Kazuya’s door, “Kazuya.”
There was no respond. The muffled crying Jin heard before seemed to have stopped as well. Tatsuya sighed and grabbed his key chain. Jin frowned at him.
“You have a key?” Jin mumbled.
“This is my apartment, baka,” Tatsuya replied.
Tatsuya unlocked the door and the door swung open, revealing an empty room. Tatsuya frowned and walked inside to look in the bathroom.
“Kazuya?” Tatsuya called out, walking inside the bathroom.
“Ueda,” Jin said.
Tatsuya walked out of the bathroom, “What?”
Jin pointed at the open window.
“Shit!” Tatsuya hissed and quickly walked out of the room.
Jin followed Tatsuya, “Where do you think he went?”
“I have no idea, Jin,” Tatsuya said, “But I have to go look for him.”
“I’m coming, too!” Jin exclaimed.
Tatsuya sighed, “Fine, it is your fault in the first place.”
“He locked himself up!” Jin exclaimed.
“You shouldn’t have fallen asleep!” Tatsuya hissed.

Blood…. He tasted blood. He couldn’t stop it. He curled up as his father continued to kick him. He numbed out his feelings and let his father take out his anger on him. He blamed himself. He shouldn’t have gone home later, but his work was willing to pay him more if he stayed later… and money was all his father cared about. He tried to explain to his father the reason why he was late, but it was no use, as soon as he walked in, his father pushing him to the floor.
He flinched when he felt his stomach getting kicked for the nth time. He couldn’t make a sound as his father pulled him up. Kazuya closed his eyes, expecting a punch, but it didn’t come. His father pushed him at the stairs and told him to go upstairs. Kazuya quickly nodded and slowly walked to his and Tatsuya’s room. He felt old wounds opening. His face was swollen. His bottom lip was bleeding and he felt the cut on his right cheek starting to bleed, too. The lower part of his shirt was also getting red.
When he entered the room, he saw Tatsuya turning towards him. Tatsuya’s eyes widened at the sight of Kazuya. He stood up and helped Kazuya to his bed. Kazuya was shaken with fear. Tatsuya grabbed the first aid kit he had under his bed and immediately started treating Kazuya’s wounds. Kazuya hissed in pain when Tatsuya pressed with a towel on the cut on his stomach.
“I just got it to stop bleeding two days ago,” Tatsuya muttered to himself.
“I’m sorry,” Kazuya said under his breath.
“What happened?” Tatsuya asked, “Why were you late?”
“Work….” Kazuya mumbled.
“They were willing to pay for overtime?” Tatsuya asked.
Kazuya slowly nodded. Tatsuya pressed on the towel more to try and stop the bleeding from the cut. Kazuya flinched.
“I’ll change your bandages too,” Tatsuya said.
Kazuya swallowed hard and nodded.
“We’ll get out of here someday,” Tatsuya whispered, “I promise.”
