Memories

The Sawada twins were in the entrance with an intention to welcome their parents... But they didn't expect someone else to come at their house...

'We meet Koharu for the first time when our parents brought her home... back then all she have is sea of coldness on her eyes... It all started 12 years ago...'

'She was introduced to us by our father, Iemetsu Sawada...'

"Listen you two..." our father started referring me and my twin younger brother, Tsuna. "This is Koharu, be gentlemen and treat her like a sister" our father slips happily to us.

'Tsu-chan or Tsuna is staring at her, while me it just that I don't like her at first... and i don't understand why we need to adopt this cold girl... yes I’m little bit selfish back then... but it changed a little when our father told us the reason why...'

Me, Tsuna, our mother, and our father were on the leaving room to talk about Koharu. While the said girl were already on her room and resting since our mother said 'she's probably tired because of long trip...'

"Her family and our family were very good friends for over the years..." our mother started

"Listen carefully Tsu-kun..." he referring me "Tsu-chan" to my brother "That girl's family were killed on their own house in Kyoto..." our father followed

"The more terrible to her experience was...'' our father paused for a moment and took a deep breath and by his looks our father were liked he hesitating in his next words for us, that also giving us a tension to our chest... "She was raped by the killer himself..." he sadly slips to us... of course it tensed us... who's not?

"The reason why we adopted her was all the members of her family were casting her away. They saying she's the cursed, the reason why her family killed" our mother informed us

"And she's not comfortable to our other family and since the two of you were gentlemen so I thought that she be back to her feet if you two be a good boys to her. Can we expect that Tsu-kun, Tsu-chan?"

'Our parents really expect us that? Well... after what we heard who does not try to be good to someone whose have sorrowful fate like Koharu? And we don’t have narrow heart, you know!'

'So we both promised that we will be good boys for her until she back to her feet, that's all... That's what I’m thinking back then, it just that, period... but'

'One night, i woke up and think that i going to get a glass water, well it's my hobby and i'm used to it... i leave my room while yawning as a bit of tear were in my left eye. I'm not crying it just due to the watery eyes... somepeople like that you know! Then let's go back to my story... As i exited my room i heard a crying voice... and due of my curiosity, I’d searched for it and found that its coming from that girl's room, yes on Koharu's room... if I still remember we don't have ghost in our house and I’m not like Tsuna whose scared into everything that scary...'

'I'm come to her room and listened more. As i do that i heard her voice that shaking in fear... Then out of senses I’d opened her room's door and entered. I saw her; she's having a nightmare so i decided to wake her up.'

'I successfully able to wake her up, she almost jumped to her bed. She has sweats all over her face. I can see that she's really scared to her nightmare... and i have a hint of what is it.'

'After she took her breath back and calm down, she looked at me but at that time, her eyes was quite different to her usual cold/lone eyes, on my vision i saw fear yet trying to be cold at the same time...'

"Wh... what are you doin' here?" She asked me with a breath of still taking back to her...

"I just heard a ghost's noise" i just simply answered her... but I’m really careful to my words. "Its much like the ghost was having a bad dream" i little rude joked to her since I referred her as a ghost. You cannot blame me since i was a kid back then, a kid that doesn't like their new housemate...

'I saw her face changed into plain, well i don't have any words for her face back then. And it's the first and the last time that i saw her with that face.'

"I'm sorry... did i woke you up?" Koharu apologized to me.

"Come with me." I said as i turning my back to her ignoring her question.

'I didn't hear any words from her. She’s probably curious to my words. So I said to her...

"I'll make you a juice that will make you relax”

'She quietly followed me as i making my way to the kitchen... Let's skip the details on our way to kitchen and when i make her a juice.'

'After she drunk my own made juice her face, umm how I’ll put it? Umm, huh it changed into pretty relax expression that like she suddenly forgot her terrible experience through that killer. She sighed relax then looked at me. Her eyes also changed into relax one. And for the first time in our lives she smiled to me. Well she's cute back then even with that cold expression but when i saw her smiled she's not cute anymore but in my view she become's beautiful. Also that relaxing smile of her makes me also relax. Who'll going to think that she can be pretty when she smiled like that. Of course every boy will blush if he sees a cold girl that smile to him warmly, so yes I blushed a little back then. Well luckily for me that she didn't notice it.'

"Thank you very much, it really makes me relax, Sawada-san!" She thanked me with that sweet voice of hers.

'And even in a young age she knows how to be polite to others.'

"No need for thanks" I replied after my blush disappeared on my cheeks.

'Then suddenly her face changed to sad one, i guess she probably remember her terrible experiences.'

"I'm sorry" she suddenly said.

'Well I’m still stick on my composure of being cold. Well cannot blame me I was just a kid back then.'

"For what?"

"I bet you didn't like me to be here."

'Wow! What a kid! She knows it!'

"Why you said that?" Said of a another sweet voice

'Wow Tsuna is here! He wakes up on his own and not to mention it still middle of night. But why all of the sudden?'

"Tsu-chan, what are you doing here? And how long been you there?"

'Mom will yell at me if she learn that her three kids is still up, that's for sure. And since I’m the oldest I’m the one will receive her earful lessons. Uhuh! Poor me and my ears.'

"I noticed that Onii-san wasn't on his bed then I noticed also that the lights here were on."

'Wow! What an explanation for a kid. Then he turned to Koharu,'

"Why? Why you said that we don't like you to be here?"

'Tsu-chan really joined us. Now for my safety and for my poor ears I needed to make this two agree to go back to our beds', but before that i also want to know why she said that.'

'So I also turned to her'

"I am a cursed. I'm sure Sawada-san, your father already told you about it. That because of m..."

"You’re not a cursed or something!"

'I'd cut her. Then she and my younger twin looked at me, probably shock on my sudden words.'

"You see, there's no person who’s cursed or bad luck or something like that. I'm sure when you born your parents were really happy and full of joy. Every parents like that. Beside those who cannot think of any reason to blame, they making stupid theories to blame in. Well you just got a little bad luck, since they using you for their stupid theory. That's all no need to worry! And well you just at the wrong time and place when it happened. But don't worry your already safe now, right Tsu-chan."

'My younger twin nodded'

"That's right! Onii-san and I will protect you no matter what, right Onii-san?"

'I nodded, well saying all those stuff made her relax. So I guess is not bad idea of having her around. Then she... she did it again! She smiled again and at that time it's a very sweet smiled that all of the sudden it hooked me.'

"Thank you so much... uh?"

"I'm Natsu Hoshi Sawada, and this is my younger twin brother Tsunayoshi Sawada."

"Hai, Natsu-san, Tsuna-san!"

"Hey you can call Tsuna to Tsu-chan!"

"Eh! Onii-san I also want to be call Tsuna-san!" My brother retorted.

'Well he's cute with retorted'

"What are you talking about? You're too cute to be call with -san."

'And as Tsu-chan retorting and I countering him, suddenly she giggled then she chuckle happily. When we both noticed her we stopped our business and smiled to her then also chuckle along with her. And she's very pretty while laughing.'

'After a few more conversations we finally decided get back to sleep. As we'd headed on upstairs Koharu said to me these words,

"Your name is pretty amazing, Natsu-san. Because it means Summer Star. I really like it!"

And since that night I’d fall to her'

'Sighed, I wish I had done something back then, when Tsuna confessed to her or rather i want to die. Oh well still needed to support them...'

'Totally cruel'
