"Y/n, are you okay? I feel like you're in a bad mood today".

"I'm fine, Ayano. Thanks for asking, though". 

Ayano isn't really close to y/n, but she has always been someone nice, who's always checking up on her classmates. That's great, but y/n wishes she would take care of herself.

The other day, as Ayano was taking math books from the students, y/n noticed her arms, and oh god, how has no one not noticed how troubled she was?

Y/n never said anything, though. But, she still keeps an eye out for her. If she feels like Ayano needs help, she would find someone. 

"Hello, earth to y/n?", Suna waves his hand on her face.

"Huh, what?".

"I brought bento. Do you want to eat it here or the rooftop?".

"Let's just head to the rooftop", y/n said as she gets up and pulls Suna's arm.

"Y/n".

"Y/n".

"Huh?".

"You keep zoning out. Is there something wrong?".

"No, I feel like I have a headache. Can I lay down for a moment?", without even waiting for an answer, y/n lay her head on Suna's shoulder. Ah, heaven.

"So, listen. You can't follow me to practice anymore, okay? Until I say you can".

"Why?".

"I- I have things to take care of at home. It's been a mess these few days".

"Why can't I help?".

"Please, y/n. I just need some time for myself".

"...Oh, alright".

....

The days goes by. Days turns into weeks, weeks turns to a month.

Suna and y/n only talked during school, and he always left early before she could even catch up. But, whatever. Suna's not the type that will cheat or do anything else behind her back.

Y/n heads to the gym. No Suna in sight, just a bunch of guys playing volleyball.

"Hey hey, look who finally showed up!", Atsumu said.

"Kita, have you seen Suna? I thought he'd be here."

"Ah, ignored again~", Atsumu thought to himself.

Kita shakes his head. "He doesn't come to practice as often anymore. Not that I blame him since the Inter-high's over, though".

"Oh, right. You guys are going to the nationals soon, right? I will cheer you on!". Y/n said, giving a thumbs-up.

Kita chuckled. "If you want, you could stay behind and watch us practice".

"Yeah, that's like the whole point on why I'm here".

A few hours later, Suna's still not to be seen. Y/n takes a look at her watch, it's already 4.30p.m.

"I'll get going first. See you!", y/n said after she finished packing her stuff.

The guys waved and kept on playing.

...

"What the- Why is he here?", y/n thought to herself. It's only Wednesday, he only comes here on the weekend.

"Ah, long time no see, y/n", the guy said as he turns around after he heard the front door opens.

"Uh, yes", y/n looked at her mother, demanding an explanation.

"See, y/n, he came here to talk with you".

"For what reason? He's your boyfriend, not mine".

"Y/n! Sorry, Kaiyo, she's always been a little rude".

"It's okay, let's sit on the sofa".

Kaiyo grabbed y/n's shoulders and brought her to the sofa.

"So, what is it?".

"Where is your bankbook?".

Y/n raised an eyebrow. Ah, so that's the reason he's acting all nice.

"It's with me. What do you wanna do with it?".

"Well, I really need some money and your mother said you have plenty left".

Y/n glared at her mom. She must have peeked at her bankbook the other day when she came back home with her room all messy.

"I don't have any".

"Oh, don't be a liar, y/n. I saw that you have at least 100,000 yen in your bankbook". So she did peek.

*100,000 yen = 956 usd / 3,973 myr

"I promise I'll pay you back in no time", he said, putting on a puppy face.

"Have you ever payed back my mother's money?".

Silence.

"I thought so".

"Oh, don't be so selfish, y/n. He only wants to lend a bit. Once he gets rich, he'll pay double the amount".

"Mother, tell me how much he's spent your money that he HASN'T return yet".

"All of it", she said in a gloomy voice, looking at the ground.

"And how much is all of it?".

"500, 000", her voice keeps getting lower.

"Mom, maybe you should just drop this scumbag. He's not worth it".

"What did you say?!". Kaiyo gets up and held a fist. Before he could even step closer towards y/n, y/m/n stop her.

"Not now, Kaiyo. You promised".

He took a deep breath. "Right", and sat down.

What promise?

"Well, can you lend even a bit?".

"My answer is no, and that's final".

He turns away, looking mad. 

"I raised you, and you can't even do a little to repay me?".

"Repay you? Mom, I would gladly give you money if you didn't use it for him".

"Alright, then. Can I?".

"Mom, no. I gave you a lot last month, and when you said you weren't going to use it for him, you did. I can't even trust you with money".

Kaiyo slammed his fist on the coffee table. "Tsk, I don't even want to get involved in this stupid quarrel", and walks out.

"Wait, Kaiyo!".

The door slammed shut. Mom turns to y/n, and slapped her.

"He was all I had, and you had to ruin that?!".

"All you had?! Mom, I'm right here! I'm here to give all the love he can't! I'm here to support you, thick through thin, and you chose a scumbag?! Ma, open your eyes!".

"He was the love of my life, y/n", as she breaks into tears and fall to the ground.

Y/n lowered down, and cupped her mother's face. "What kind of love is it if he killed your unborn baby, my brother? What kind of love is it if he can't be a father figure?What kind of love is it if you can't feel warmth, cozy, comfy when you're around him?".
