“How are you doing, Kaya?” Sitting on the bed, with her legs crossed she had her phone to her ears.“I am fit and fine as usual!” A cheerful voice rang from the other side of the phone. One that Maki hadn’t heard in quite a while and one that was familiar to her. It was her sister, Sasaki Kaya.“I see. That’s good to hear.” Maki said. Then, she heard the sounds of horns and other vehicles.“Kaya, are you on the road?”“Ah, yes. I am currently driving.”“Driving? You know you shouldn’t drive when you are on the phone, right?” Maki tried to voice her concern.“You don’t need to worry, nee-chan! I will be fine.”“Well, not that you will listen to me. Though, still, be careful!”“Aye, aye, captain!”Maki sighed then a thin smile played over her lips. This was very like her sister. Doing whatever she pleased in whatever way pleased her – she has been this way ever since childhood. It was one of her charms and one of the reasons so many people loved and admired her.“By the way, where are y

How My Life Was Ruined End of Volume 2
This here brings an end to the second arc of the series 'Fakeness and Family'. This volume was sort of a bridging arc. At first, I had planned this volume to be the same length as the first one but when I continued writing it become far longer than I had originally planned. In this volume, some light was shed on the fakeness that our protagonist had and the complicated family relationship he has. But, we still don't know the full story yet. There are many things we have yet to know. Why exactly does Kageyama hate his mother so much? Why did his father die and why does he blame himself for his father's death? What is the sin he speaks of? And more importantly, who is this girl - Hayami? And why did Kaya refer to her as non-existent? There is something even more pressing here. What will happen afterward? All of these will be answered in the next volume which will be the final installment of this series. And sorry but, I think you guys will have to wait till next month for all t
How My Life Was Ruined 098: The Past - I
I looked her straight in the eyes and replied in all honesty. “I am sorry, Hamasaki.” For a moment, her mouth opened a little then she closed it tight. Her thin glossy lips then went on to form a thin smile. A smile that said that she knew this was coming. Her hands were clasped tightly in front of her and all she could do was look on at me with her loving gaze. But, I didn’t avert her gaze and looked straight at her. This was the least I could do to respect the determination and courage she showed despite knowing the end result. A strong wind blew, and her long hair was sent flying in the air, blocking her face. She turned around and then she ran. Although her face was hidden by her long, lustrous hair, I was sure I had seen it. A drop of tears that contained a thousand painful emotions. “I wonder how many times has it been now?” I said as I looked up at the sky with my expression blank. Maybe eighteen? No. It should have already crossed twenty by now. Twenty. The number o
How My Life Was Ruined 099: The Past - II
A man in his early forties came wobbling through the front door.He hastily opened his shoes and threw them toward the wall. They bounced off the wall and fell on the floor upside down. He put his right hand on the wall as he supported himself as he walked.I was still there rooted at the end of the steps.His footsteps were loud and heavy. I hated this man. And of course, I hate to talk to him. But if I don’t talk here, the loud thumping will continue and this is for sure going to wake my mom up. She was tired and she needs rest. For the sake of her respite, unwillingly, I spoke to the drunk man from the spot I was in.“Hey, pipe it down, old man. You will end up waking mom up.”Upon hearing my harsh words delivered in a cold tone, my drunk father slowly looked up at me with his swollen, red eyes.“Oh, my son.”When he said that, I could feel blood rush to my head at an unbelievable speed.

The room was silent now that the storm had passed.My mom was still lying on the floor. Her hair was still a mess with tears staining her beautiful and lovely face.I slowly walked towards her and crouched down to gaze into her eyes that were cast down.I gently held her quivering shoulders and brought her close to mine, hugging her tightly.The quivering stopped and I heard the sound of faint sobs escaping her lips.“I am sorry.” She said.“No. Mom, why are you apologizing?”“It’s all my fault. Because of me even you have to suffer at the hands of your father. I am sorry. I am sorry, Kage!”The tears burst forth like damn and she wrapped her arms around me tightly.“No. Stop it, mom. It was not your fault. It never had been!”It was all his fault. All that bastard’s fault. She had nothing to be blamed for. It was my dad and his drinking habits that were the cause of it all.This had been a daily routine for us now. Day after day, I was made to witness the same scene again and again.
