"Is anybody home? Please, help me! I need to speak to Izumi!" cried Satoshi. Megumi opened the door since he saw that he was in poor condition. His head was bleeding, his clothes were torn, and freezing cold outside.
"Why?! What happened?!" asked the worried Megumi. "I should keep this pace. I might be able to get some info from him," she thought. "I-I escaped from the grasp of my evil twin. W-where's Izumi?" asked Satoshi. "Before I will answer your question, answer some of mine first," said Megumi. "Ah, no, go take a shower first and let's treat your wounds," she added. Satoshi then went into the shower. Afterward, Megumi treated her wounds.
"So, who are you? Why are you looking for Izumi?" asked the curious Megumi. "I don't usually help strangers, but I recognized you and your voice is slightly gentler this time," she added. "I'm the real Iwamoto Satoshi. The "Satoshi" you met is my twin, Satoru. I am also the lover of Izumi," said Satoshi. "Sorry to break it to you, Satoshi-kun, but Izumi and I are now dating. It seems that your two completely ruined your relationship with him," said Megumi, melancholy. Satoshi could no longer contain his tears. "D-Damn you, Satoru! I'll get you; I swear!" said Satoshi while clenching his fist. "Wait, before I can explain, let me hear your story first," said Megumi. While stitching his wound, Megumi listened to the story of Satoshi.
"It all started with a game. A game that would eventually destroy my relationship with my twin. He and I attended different schools during our middle school days. I agreed to his proposal that he would take my place and I will take his place. Thus, I became Satoru, he became Satoshi," said Satoshi.
"Woah, such a bold move for twins, huh?" applauded Megumi.
"Then, he met Mitsuru. He fell in love with him and made a move on him during their final spring of middle school. Unfortunately, Mitsuru turned him down and that's the beginning of our turmoil," said Satoshi.
"How did you meet Izumi then?" asked Megumi curiously.
"I met him during our high school days. During our final spring of high school, we had a play, and our genre was romance. He was in my group. Since we're all boys in the group, we went to try the BL genre. Then, Izumi and I were paired. But prior to that, our classmates were already teasing us since our teacher caught us and said 'Do your couple things after my class'. Ever since that play, we fell for each other, and Izumi finally courted me. I made him stop courting me during our sophomore year and we officially dated," says Satoshi as he dresses.
"A typical high school romance huh? I didn't expect that Ikkun would be the one who'll court," says Megumi as she fixes the first aid kit. "I-Ikkun?" blurted Satoshi. "Yeah, that's what we call him. Oh! Silly me! I haven't introduced myself! I am Fuchigami Megumi, the cousin of Haruki" says Megumi. "I suppose that you still have to tell me, Satoshi-kun?" she added.
"Yes. During our freshmen days, Satoru and I got into a fight, and I moved out of the house. I didn't contact him since I was so pissed at him. I thought he was already cured since he underwent rehabilitation when we were in high school. He tried to take my place again in order to take revenge on Mitsuru and to follow our grandfather's wish. For me, it would be irrelevant to follow it since we are out of that topic. But Satoru's rage has driven him to do so," said Satoshi. "You…" said Satoshi as he gasps. He was horrified when he recognized Megumi.
"I am so sorry for what my grandfather has done to you four!" cried Satoshi as he bowed before Megumi. "Ah! No! It's alright, please get up. I am still adjusting here. So, I am not yet accustomed to the culture," said Megumi. "Kindly continue your story," she said. "If you insist," said Satoshi.
"So, before the prefectural martial arts tournament, Satoru kidnapped me and locked me up in our house. He took my place. I heard that Izumi's parents already knew about us. I should've been the one who's there, who witnessed their blessings. Not Satoru! He… He… He ruined it all!!" Satoshi could no longer contain his frustration; he wailed in front of Megumi. Megumi rubs his back and comforts him. "I feel guilty that I said that Izumi and I are dating. I apologize but I am just helping my friend to heal. I thought that you really betrayed him but no, I never thought that you had a twin. We're not dating, Satoshi-kun. You can explain to him after he wakes up," says Megumi.
"What happened? Please, tell me! Where is he?!" begged the anxious Satoshi. "I am so sorry. Izumi is in a state of comatose. It's been three weeks. He's been in an accident," said Megumi as she empathized with Satoshi. Satoshi's eyes dilated upon hearing what Megumi had said. Then the door opens unexpectedly.
"Megumi-nee! I've bought some hot choco! Want to have some?!" yelled Yuuji as he was approaching the sala. Megumi attempted to hide Satoshi, but Yuuji caught them. "Nee-san! Who's that?" asked the curious Yuuji. As Satoshi looked at him, Yuuji was startled. "Iwamoto-senpai?! What are you doing here?!" asked Yuuji frantically. "Calm down, Yuuji-kun! He's the real Satoshi!" exclaimed Megumi. "Huh? I'm not following. Kindly explain, Megumi-nee," said Yuuji. "Ah, do it while I prepare our drinks. It's so cold outside," said Yuuji while shivering. Megumi then proceeded with the explanation. When Yuuji finished preparing their drinks, he moved to drink his portion. He got his tongue burned when Megumi said that Satoshi has a twin.
"Eh?! What?! I thought Satoshi-senpai said that his twin is already dead?" asked Yuuji. "Ow, ow, my tongue!" he cried. "Well, I considered him dead for a long time. I didn't know that he would go this length just to get revenge," said Satoshi. "So, his name's Satoru huh? It reminds me of that famous character," said Yuuji. "So, what's the plan?" asked Yuuji.
"First and foremost, you must not tell anyone about this matter. We'll only tell it to Uncle Akihiko," said Megumi. "Uh-huh, and then?" queried Yuuji. "I'll pretend that I don't know that Satoru has a twin. I'll still address him as Satoshi. With my vile thinking, I can twist and torment anyone's mind. It's all in my hands," said Megumi as he smirked dangerously. Satoshi and Yuuji gulped and began to get nervous. "Oh, you don't have to be so dense! Of course, I'll only apply this to my enemies," said Megumi as she chuckled. "Satoshi-kun will stay here. I'll contact Mayumi-chan and Haruki to stop coming by for a while. I need your help with this, Yuuji-kun," said Megumi. "Roger that, nee-san!" said Yuuji. "Wait, how did Satoshi-senpai know about this place?" asked the curious Yuuji. "Yeah, how did you know about this?" asked Megumi.
"Well, Izumi-kun told me that he is a major stockholder, and we used this house not a long time ago. I figured out that he might be here, but I ended up meeting Megumi-san instead," said Satoshi-kun. "Ah, so that explains it," said Yuuji. "Damn you, Izumi. You move so fast, and it's intimidating, you bastard!" thought Megumi. "Okay, that settles it," said Megumi. I should check Izumi tomorrow. But now, you cannot still see Izumi, Satoshi-kun," said Megumi. "I'm getting anxious, Megumi-san. I just escaped today, and Satoru gets home once a week. That means he'll be home within the next three days. I don't know what he will do once he discovers I have escaped. He might go to Izumi and kill him," said Satoshi. Megumi slapped Satoshi's face with her two hands. "Trust me, Satoshi-kun! You want to teach your twin a lesson, right? You need to be strong! So, be strong for Izumi, okay?!" said Megumi while holding that position.
"Y-yes!" said the muffled Satoshi. "Now, let's sleep. I'll be Izumi's guard tomorrow. If you don't have plans for the next three days Yuuji-kun, kindly accompany Satoshi-kun here. Make sure that he will not be seen by anyone, understand?" asked Megumi. "Understood, Megumi-nee!"
