" but.... according to the memories of the original Akira.... it's very complicated."
" Akira's parents own a very famous fashion store.
They are the founders of it.
And after their death, Akira's grandparents and aunts and uncles came to take her which ended up in a huge property clash as all the property is legally hers.
And someone will come and pick her up today. These fucking shits! This kid fucking lost her fucking family and those fucks are fighting over her fucking property?! Let them fucking come! The kid fucking died here because of their pathetic greed! I'll make sure they can't get a single fucking rupee...er yen from her property!"
" Eh.... wait a second, I can play them actually. I look like a 10 year old afterall. They won't see it coming. My sweet Akira , if you're watching, I'll make sure you're not let down sweetheart. Watch your sis give them their shit. "
" Let's set the stage first hehehe. "
Tara goes back to the kitchen and grabs the pepper.
"Ok. My lovely gorgeous eyes, this will hurt but bear with it a little okay? We're defending the legacy of your original soul here. "
She says before putting some pepper in her eyes and screaming as she tried to wash it out.
A few minutes passed and the burn finally went away leaving a very red eyes puffy face in their wake.
" Perfect. It didn't have to hurt so bad tho. "
Knock knock
"Here comes nothing..."
Akira ( Tara) prepares herself for an Oscar worthy performance with all the drama skills and experience she has ever used.
She immediately removed her bandages on her wrist and goes to the kitchen and grabs the knife waiting for the door to open with the most depressed and lifeless look on her face which she practiced to act sick and skip school in her last life.
" Akira! It's me sweetheart! Aya obasan! Open the door sweetheart!"
'Aya. Let's see what she is. ' Akira thinks as she stays the same.
" Akira? Honey? Are u in there?" Aya calls out as she tries to knock harder only to realise the door is unlocked.
" I'm coming in honey!" She calls out before coming in.
As she went in , the whole house is dark.
The blinds closed, Akira nowhere in sight.
She went to the kitchen to get some water before checking on Akira only to spot the child moving knife to her wrist.
" Akiraaa!! " She snatched the knife and threw it away before grabbing Akira and looking at her tear stricken puffed up face who started sobbing painfully as she held her to her chest.
' Did she try to kill herself? If she does, billions property will go to the government! She's completely broken. She's a child afterall. I can get her under my wing if I am her emotional support now! She'll pick me in the court hearing! "
" Akira... My child, why are you doing this? I lost my brother and sister in law just two days ago. I don't want to lose my niece too. You're more than my own children to me Sweetheart. Please don't do this to me again. Come with me home. I'll give you everything okay? You're my brother's daughter. In a sense, you're my own daughter sweetheart. Your life is very valuable. Don't ever do this again okay? Promise? "
' what a perfect act. I almost believed it lady. Almost. Too bad you lowkey smiled earlier. And in yesterday's fight, you're the most aggressive one. As if I'd fall for it. '
Tara scoffed internally while sobbing into Aya's shoulder as she carried her.
Akira nods pitifully while clinging to Aya. " Oba-san..-hic-hic- I want oka-san- hic- and oto-san ..-hic-. " and started crying again.
" Akira-chan, let's go to court okay? You just have to pick me and I'll take you home. You can play with your cousins okay? And I'll get you lots of chocolates. "
Akira nods.
' Woman. This kid is crying her heart out and you're talking about court? Are you for real ? Where's the freaking conscience?!'
They soon left from there.
A 3 hour session proceeded in the court with the custody falling into Aya's hands. Now she just has to be the only person Akira has to rely on until she reaches adulthood. Then she can make this foolish kid sign the papers and all the property is hers!
Aya is delighted to get her hands on the kid.
She's a walking gold mine.
But during the court hearing, she expected to immediately get the property.
But this little emotional kid started crying and sobbing on how her dead parent's legacy is hers to carry and how she doesn't want anyone else to carry this enormous weight.
She was crying during the whole hearing making the court lock up her assets until she turns into a major.
Even when Aya argued on how she would need money to raise the child, that beat started crying again on how everyone hates her and how nobody wants to spend on her retelling how Aya said Akira means more to her than her own children.
This pathetic little brat has no idea what she's doing! She's an emotional fool!
Aya will make sure that she will be the only support to the kid forever. She'll make sure Akira has no one to rely on except her.
( We'll call Tara completely as Akira from now on.)
As they reach Aya's house, Akira noticed the impatience in her supposed to be guardian's face.
' eh? Her face is way more pleasant than I expected..... Let's see how long she can keep it up. ' thought Akira.
" Akira chan, your cousins have their own room. And there's only one room for you okay? The basement is pretty nice and cozy for you. You'll feel like a princess!" Aya beamed.
Akira nodded. ' She's not even hiding her discrimination at this point. How lovely. Atleast I'm getting privacy, ' thought Akira.
"Come on. Let's call your cousins okay? Rio! Kyo! Come down! "
A chorus of steps echoed as two teen boys came down.
" Yo. " Greeted the tall one whom Akira identified as Rio.
The other one just rolled his eyes.
' Wow. Is this how they greetings a kid who's like half their age, give or take a few years? Don't snap. Just cry hehehe. '
Akira started tearing up again. Without pepper this time.
Aya immediately scolded Kyo for his attitude as she told him to lead her to her room aka basement.
" Basement? It's really dusty down there. You don't want some crybaby there. "
' Looks like the edgelord is not that much of an edgelord in reality. And a fresh breath of air, ' Akira mused.
"Tell the maid to clean it. She'll sleep in the living room today. Akira chan, stay in the living room for today ok? Your room will be ready by morning. " Aya said sharply.
