Part 2/20: Family
The bus was parked outside, awaiting for everyone to board it. Uno standing beside Jyugo as they awaited for Samon and Hajime to instruct them to board.
"Hey Jyugo, can you swim?" Uno asked, twirling his braid with his fingers.
Jyugo did know how to swim, but how he was taught was horrifyingly common on how others learned how.
"Yes, I can swim." He answered, "My dad tossed me into a nearby river, I didn't realize it wasn't that deep until later..." he explained, which made Liang and Nico gasp with pure terror.
"Tossed into a river?! That's scary Jyugo!"
Jyugo nodded, then looked over at Uno. Not noticing the concerned look a nearby teacher gave him as they passed by.
That teacher, being Kenshirou, who reported to Samon with the quote he heard. While the method is common, you'd think they'd do that at a public pool so if something were to happen to the poor child, somebody could assist him out.
Hearing that only increased his concern for Jyugo if he were to return home.
It bothered him, however he proceeded to smile, and go on.
"Hajime, go over with the kids." Samon said, then followed Kenshirou to his classroom. Leaving Hajime no choice but to stand up with the kids.
He couldn't help but think either, what was Jyugo like at home? Where was his home.
"Alright guys gather around me for a second." Hajime called, which grabbed all their attention, and in front of him is where they stood.
"Are we in trouble?" Rock asked, joining the class huddle around Hajime.
"No, no. I just want to make something clear with everyone, okay? Everyone listening?" Hajime pulled at his ears, making the little ones laugh, "Clap once if you hear me."
Everyone clapped once, and giggled.
"Alright everyone, I want you all to know, me and Samon over there, care about you guys. So if you guys are struggling in anyway, me and Samon are here to help." His speech sounded like something Samon would say, but that's he gets for deciding that was his life partner right?
"We are a family here, got me?"
Jyugos' ears perked up, and nodded eagerly after hearing it. His eyes sparkling as they changed colors every time his head turned from one side to another.
Hajime smiled, Jyugos nod was the most eager but everyone else was more audible than he was.
"Alright, everyone on the bus, Samon will join us soon." Hajime gestures toward the bus, which was supposedly much cooler than it was outside.
So they all filed on. Once everyone was on the bus, Samon came from inside the building, with Kenshirou, the Daisen brothers, and Hitoshi.
"You're such the speaker," Samon teased, slipping Hajime a quick enough kiss nobody saw, "the one I married." He whispered.
"Samon just get on the bus..." Hajime groaned, ignoring the look Samon was giving him, which was heartfelt.
"Oh but Hajime!"
"Not in front of the kids...please..." Said the bald man, following everyone onto the bus.
Jyugo was watching from spot closest from the window, next to Uno. He smiled, and faced Uno and the others again.
