Re: Detention

[philtering]

He had a bad feeling all week. Like something horrible was going to happen. Ignoring the growing anxiety in his gut proved to be a bad idea when he was finally called in for detention.

He sat down as instructed and, after eying it for some time, drank the tea that was offered.

That was a mistake.

As he fell asleep, the image that was before him slowly came into view.. as nothing. He awoke in the chair, alone. The chain that was spouting out of his chest was larger than before, and what it was tied to was clearly visible, the first time since he arrived at the school.

"..." His parents. They were standing there, clear as day, but they wouldn't even look up to acknowledge him. Keigo stood up from the chair, supposed detention forgotten, and he stepped closer.

"Mom..? Dad?" He questioned, but once again, they didn't appear to even realize he was there. He trembled where he stood, the emptiness of the room having more of an effect on him than he wanted to acknowledge.

"He's such a bad kid, you know?" His father said, cigarette dangling from his lips.

"Mmn, I know what you mean. Where did we go wrong?" And his mother, standing next to his father, huffed, tapping the toe of her high heels.

"We should have stopped after Mizuho. We didn't need another kid. We can barely take care of her."

Keigo stared, slack-jawed and eyes wide. Was this what his parents thought of him? His fingers rose up and coiled around the chain at his chest without prompting. Keigo tugged, only for the chain to grow stronger.

"If only he wasn't such a failure."
