Chapter 8 - Arc 7: Union of the siblings

Three days after I heard the news of my half sibling, I was incredibly shocked to core because even for me I couldn't in 3 years. And that was even after mother died but then it Tamato who solved it and the pendant helped in the long run. It has been three days since, today so I decided to meet them today I apologies for mom. I knew the reunion would be awkward and silly but I had to take my chances. Soon after I woke up, brushed my teeth, took a bath and caught dressed and started preparing. All that I prayed for: Please God let everything go on smoothly as possible. That for my internal thought and wish from God. Walking out of the house with Tamato, it felt like a married couple, now visiting long distant relatives. That was my honest thought, and when I showed at his face I knew he had the same thoughts too. The walk wasn't very long or short just in different stations. We took 7 train stops and 5 bus stops, after that we took a 10 minute walk from the station to their room in the apartment complex.

After we arrived at the door he released his hand from mine which was starting to get sweaty a bit. Then I knocked three times on the door, a moment later a girl voice was heard saying that she was coming. If I had to guess; it was likely to be Ichika (my older sister) and my guess was right. It was her in the flesh and for the first time I felt something when I looked at her. After a moment later 2 boys appeared which was Max and Hayato. I, Tamato and Hayato all went to the same school so we all knew each other incredibly well. For a moment we glazed at each other, before Max invited all of us in the living room. It was well kept and well cleaned especially for a boy and girl apartment. He looked at us with kind eyes and questioned us about our purpose of visiting their home. I smiled and said: you might believe this but I am your sister, well to be precise half sister but that does not change anything. We are all still family; when I looked at the silence it was suffocating and i wanted to cry so bad. 

Max perspective:

After she said that everything made sense, I sighed and smiled at her because I'd believed her from the beginning. Then I told them the truth after our escape from the facility, 3 years ago.

During the escape, when everything went according to plan dad told me somethings about mom about her life and death and our half sibling. Ichika knew we had a missing sibling but never thought it was true. She never believed our father, because of his lies and mistreatment of others. But today the truth finally came to life, we really did have a missing sibling. Ichika and Nanase were shocked one knew but never believed and one also knew but didn't reach us earlier. After the explanation they both started hugging and crying on the floor like children. Looking at them I felt proud to be a big brother for both wonderful little sisters. At the time I was 13 years old, with roughly Ichika and Nanase being 12 years old each.
