STEPBROTHER (HAIKYUU X KUROKO NO BASKETBALL SUMMER CAMP)

"Where's my sister, Ma?" ask Ushijima again. Madam Ushijima was surprised by Ushijima's high voice.

"Oh, forget it! You're almost hurt because of Masaomi. Don't interfere in their business, you should understand." Madam Ushijima yelled hysterically at her son.

"Jawab my question, Ma. Where's Akashi?" ask Ushijima.

"Akashi keeps what you have in mind, you should think about Mama's feelings."

Ushijima looked disappointed at his mother, "You've become her mother too, you should be aware of your role as a mother. If you can't be my mother, at least you should be a mother to that child."

Ushijima to the point of shedding tears in front of his mother, he was really hurt at the attitude of his mother who had been harbored.

"Tell you, Ma. Where's she? Did Mr. Masaomi punish him in that building?" asked Ushijima once more and the last time he gave his mother a chance.

Madam Ushijima stroked her son's cheek gently, she was also carried away and shed tears. He began to feel ashamed of himself. She could not deny that she had failed to become a mother, both a good mother for Ushijima and Akashi.

"I just want to be happy, I'm sorry I hurt you." Madam Ushijima walked away from Ushijima and opened the door of the room that had been locked by him himself, so that Ushijima could not go from there.

"My husband is punishing his son in the next building, you can stop him." Madam Ushijima told her son that Ushijima immediately ran to the empty building next to the House. The only building Masaomi used to punish Akashi.

Coincidentally the building was not heavily guarded at all, the atmosphere from the outside also looked quiet as usual. And there was no sign of any particular resistance from Akashi. Ushijima was clearly confused.

He immediately forcibly opened the door and continued to run around every side of the room in the building to stop his stepfather's actions. Eventually, he finds Masaomi punishing Akashi with a long wooden rattan that lands on his sister's back.

His back skin was almost blistered with a punch, bruises covering the entire back and some of them had been scraped bloody. It's possible that being hit by a rattan angle accidentally created a scratch on Akashi's back.

At that time Akashi was only face down, there was no resistance from him other than a heartless flat face. In fact, he just stared coldly at Ushijima.

"Stop! He could die if you torture him like this, ", said Ushijima, who immediately refused Masaomi who was knocked down by his own desk.

Then, Ushijima helps Akashi to stand up. He stared confusedly at the attitude of his sister who looked resigned. "Why don't you fight back? Not that you're saying that if you don't like your pride being oppressed, you should put up a fight for yourself."

"You shouldn't interfere, Wakatoshi. He's my son, it's my right to rule over him." Masaomi grasped Rattan tightly in his hand, he was unhappy at Ushijima's arrival.

"Where's your mom? It is not that he has promised to take good care of you and prevent you from interfering again" Masaomi complained.

"If you think of him as a child, treat him as a child! You don't deserve to have children at all, Mr. Masaomi." Ushijima took the wall decoration behind him and directed it at Masaomi.

"Stop! You've been too involved in my business, Ushijima-San. You made my father hate me even more" said Akashi, who moved away from Ushijima.

He let out a long sigh, "I'm not as lucky as you are, Ushijima-San. You still have Daddy to be home for you to come home to."

"You seem to understand your current position, Seijuro." Masaomi smiled triumphantly, but somehow Ushijima was fed up with Akashi's demeanor and Masaomi's contemptuous smile.

He pulled Akashi's collar with a look of anger, "Then come back to my house now, you idiot! You should have realized that you still had me, stopped thinking of me as a stranger again. We're brothers, right?"

Akashi was stunned to hear Ushijima say, "Yes, we are brothers."

"Then stop feeling sorry for your contemptible life, you can't hurt your pride anymore just to be pitied by it. If he loves you, he should learn to treat you well. Don't you still owe your own mother your life?" asked Ushijima who was getting clutching tightly around Akashi's collar.

"Live well for your mother, Akashi Seijuro. And live perfectly as you have wanted all along" Ushijima continued, further awakening Akashi.

"You're right, Ushijima-san."

"You won't be considered a child again if you leave this room, Seijuro!" threaten Masaomi's.

"Then you'll never have another heir, Pa." Akashi threatened back, before he finally left the place aided by Ushijima who carried him walking.

Masaomi, who was very upset, seemed to vent his anger by destroying all the furniture in the room. For a long time he was screaming annoyed there, even he cursed violently. Though, before that he had always controlled himself to remain calm all this time. But not this time, his emotions were already on the verge of patience.

With his anger never subsided, he called Secretary Keita who became his trust. I don't know what they were talking about at the time, but it's clear Masaomi will never let Akashi leave him. Moreover, Akashi is the rightful heir who will hold all the wealth and good name of his family. It won't be that easy for Masaomi to let Akashi just walk away.

On the other hand, Ushijima managed to bring Akashi out of the house. I don't know what Masaomi was planning, but clearly their departure was not blocked by Masaomi at all. In fact, he did not order his servant in the least to prevent or hinder Akashi from leaving the house.

It seemed, he was also not that cruel and evil. He knew clearly that taking Akashi home was like a second mistake that should not have been made. And Ushijima's great influence has made the chains he has restrained on the child have begun to break. So, he won't have any more power over his son right now.

"Hold on, we're going to the nearest health facility."

"Don't do that, I don't want to deal with the Police and Child Welfare Team. Just take me away from this place, let me take my own wounds." Akashi refused to go to the hospital. He knew that the Hospital or clinic was not the right place for him to seek treatment.

Fortunately Ushijima did not want to argue with Akashi, he just complied and called a Taxi who happened to pass in front of them. Perhaps, he would ask his father to treat Akashi when he got home.
