"oh is this yours" a female voice said while dangling an object with her fingers

  She was a teen wearing a school uniform with white skin, blue eyes and black hair

  "It's mine" my voice responded to her question while my eyes focused on the object in her hand

  "Yours?" she questioned me in mock surprise

  "Give it back " I said weakly

  Normally I would have not responded to her after that mocking tone but I did so today against my better judgement

  The hairpin in her hand was quite important to me

  "What did you say" her eyes started to squint dangerously at me

  "Please give it back" I repeated in a pleading tone

  I still made my request even at the sign that she was getting angry

  "Onee-san did you just tell me what to do" her voice was sharp this time, a sign that she was definitely angry now

  I flinched when she called me sister because although it's true, she only uses that term when she's about to do something bad to me

  "No..no..I would never, I just need that hairpin" I tried to explain to her but my words couldn't flow out fluently

  How dare I ever think of ordering my younger sister around

  That's equivalent to abandonment

  "Hmm but you told me to give you the hairpin though" she emphasized on the word give

  She's right though

  Why did I do that

  The hairpin is something that my sister wants

  And I should always give my sister whatever she wants

  After all I'm just a disgusting monster that exists solely for my sister's benefit

  But..but ..it was a gift to me

  It's not right to give it to someone else without permission...right

  "No..no it's just that it's not pretty at all so it doesn't suit someone as beautiful as my younger sister"

  "younger sister" the girl said in a disgusted tone

  Ah I messed up

  She doesn't like it when I call her younger sister...or anything at all

  I have to think of something quick

  "Besides it's all worn out and the color has faded along with its basic design... it's unworthy of the Mori family" I said

  True to my words, the hairpin was designed after a peony flower so the design was very simple

  After years of use; it had worn out and looked ugly now

  In conclusion it was basically trash

  But it was my sentimental trash

  " Then why do you want it back then, just let me keep it for you" she said

  "I'll give you something better" I said while mentally calculating how much money I make from my numerous jobs

  " Hmm but you don't have anything" she said

  "I can work more jobs and buy something for you " I said that though my hours are already stretched past my limit

  "The problem you're missing dearest sister is that, your salary is already mine and I don't need something I already have" she said

  "I...I"

  "That's quite selfish of you onee-san"

  "All I want is this old rusty hairpin and you refuse to give it to me"

  "I thought you promised to be less selfish and work harder for mom and Dad"

  "What a disappointment you are"

  Stolen novel; please report.

  "Honestly it breaks my heart to have to tell them about this"

  I couldn't refute those words because she was right

  After being casted away by my parents and pleading for forgiveness

  I was told to try my best to take care of my little sister

  And I had worked hard to the point that my parents even looked at me for a minute

  Though they were disgusted at me and their gaze was conveying disdain

  But at least they acknowledged me for that one minute

  I was happy...so..so happy

  But they might never look at me again if I let my selfishness get the better of me

  But is it really selfish to give up the last gift I got from my grandmother who died from the earthquake that shook the world

  The hairpin carries the sentimentality of the year I was happy with Mom and Dad

  "Then you can have it" my sister said stretching out her hand to me

  I could just reach out and take it from her hand

  Infact my hands flinched once she stretched the hairpin out to me

  But if I did then I would be selfish

  I would choose to be selfish and get my parents disappointment as a result

  They already dislike me due to my condition which affected my eyes, hair and skin

  What if they completely abandon me

  I should just listen to my sister and give it up

  Even though it makes my heart hurt and I feel like crying

  But it's not like I'm completely new to being hurt

  After all the sorrow and depression after I found out about my incurable defect was much worse

  That day I could see the loving gaze from parents disappear in an instant

  Then it became what it is now

  Embarrassment, disgust and hatred

  "You can take it" I said with a choke on between

  "Really" my sister said sarcastically

  Obviously due to the fact that she knew I would definitely say yes

  "I was just joking with you about giving it back"

  "After all, everything I have is for my sister" I said stiffly

  My sister smiled at me and kept the peony hairpin in her pocket

  "Good girl, but a bitch needs to be taught properly to ensure this 'joke' doesn't repeat itself" my sister said

  "Don't you agree Onee-san " her smile curved up until it was a sly smile

  I nodded

  How could I not agree

  How dare I ever disagree

  " As expected of my sister, now how should I educate you" her eyes wandered around the girl's bathroom

  My eyes also surveyed the empty bathroom containing only two people

  No wait there was someone else in one of the toilet stalls who wasn't moving

  I hope she won't come out and join my sister to bully me

  With my reputation then it's a major possibility

  "Bring that bucket of water over there" my sister made her final judgement

  I followed her instructions and brought a bucket full of brown mop water

  Inside I was worried about getting wet

  There was an important class I had to go to scheduled by second period

  If I miss it due to wardrobe malfunctions then I would lose out on the lesson completely

  I don't have any friends to borrow notes from neither do I have the right to speak to my classmates

  And it's very important I get good grades because I take tests and exams on my sister's behalf

  After all straight As is what got her the position of Class representative

  And that's impressive in a school of elitist children

  The school is obviously in cooperation and my family is very powerful

  They are one of the major pillars to emerge after the terror of the natural disasters

  So my children of such families must be outstanding

  That's why a disfigured freak like me must be cast aside to maintain dignity

  "Pour it on yourself" my sister said much to my sadness

  It was the worst outcome but I still obeyed to appease her anger

  The water was smelly and murky which soaked my uniform completely

  I was dripping water unto the floor

  The restroom was flooded with water and it leaked outside the door

  I even heard the sound of sliding shoes due to someone slipping

  "Tsk next time you should probably just drink it" my sister's shoes were soaked

  "I'll buy you a new one" I said

  Meanwhile my salary won't be enough to buy one of the same quality

  Even though I work from the time school ends till when it is time to lock the girl's dormitory

  And Iam weaker than normal girls due to my disease which makes the sun deeply affect me

  Honestly I was happy during the cloudy weather's in recent times

  But for some reason there is such a nice weather today

  Anyway I feel like these are all excuses for my weakness

  I mean just getting a few nosebleeds and skin burns shouldn't stop me from satisfying my sister

  "As long as you understand"

  "I'm meant to be a shadow for you" I said

  It's not like I have a choice in this

  "Now hurry to class and work hard for me" she said while bringing out her phone to take pictures of me

  I walked to the sink after she was done taking pictures

  I removed my blazer and tried to squeeze out as much water as possible

  I didn't look in the mirror because I'm already sure of what I would see

  A monster with pale transparent skin displaying each and every single blood vessel available just like a grotesque artwork of lines

  Honestly with this appearance it's no wonder I'm an outcast and treated like a monster

  Funny thing is I still beg those same people for forgiveness for it

  I crawl back to them like an abandoned puppy still begging for praises

  And that's because I can't escape from the mold I was told to follow

  I can't argue back at those who insult me

  I'm just too..

  Suddenly the stall of one of the toilets opened revealing a female student standing weirdly

  Her back was sunken in and her hair covered her face due to her head facing down

  There were black spots covering her visible skin

  Then she tried to lunge at my sister but my sister screamed and dodged

  " What are you staring out, come and help" my sister shouted at me

  "Huh..me..I " I was scared at how ferocious that leap at my sister was

  My legs couldn't move any my whole body was shaking

  My sister glared at me and made her way to my position

  "Fine then, if you don't want to help then I'll just give you up"

  "After all you're useless" she said as she pushed me to the student

  The student wasted no time to bite deep into my shoulder

  I didn't try to struggle at all and I didn't feel anger at my sister even as I watched her abandon me decisively along with the hairpin on the ground

  I screamed with tears streaming down my eyes

  Soon my throat filled up with blood and I was choking it out

  My life flashed before my eyes and it was filled with me putting my head down infront of everyone

  I never once fought or argued but only accepted my lesser position

  Then my thoughts turned to the present

  Is this what death feels like

  It's surprisingly comfortable to have all your senses slip away into emptiness

  Anyway this is a fitting end for someone like me

  he he

  The end is coming soon
