A/N: First chapter of my first novel, let's shoot it.
________________________________________________________________________________
Rikuro's POV:
Hi, I'm Rikuro Turoru, I'm a 15 year old highschooler, yeah you can't lewd me 'cause that's against the law.
Anyways, I'm your average high schooler, I'm about 5'11, black hair and gray eyes. There's nothing special about me.
(A/N: Rikuro's pic →)
I'm a bit of an otaku, but believe it or not, I have touched grass, I have a little sister, I have good grades and the best of all, my asian parents are actually good and listens to our recommendations.
I had just came home from school at around 12:00, and I took my shoes off and put my bag on my room upstairs. Our house was modest at best, and we lived a peaceful life.
I looked at my sister, Arisu Turoru. She's a 13 year old girl, with black hair that is styled with a ponytail, black eyes, an outgoing personality, dainty skin and that cuteness that rivals anya. Although she's annoying, she actually helps a lot around the house, and I love her for that.
I go and cleaned around the house and finished my homework. When I was done it was already 4:35 pm. I go downstairs and looked aty sister playing on her phone on the couch.
Rikuro: "You done with your homework yet?"
Arisu: " I'll do it later nii-san."
(A/N: Nii-san is a more casual term for older brother mostly used by male speaker while onii-san is more formal and mostly used by female speaker)
Rikuro: "You aren't formal now eh, well whatever just finish it before our parents come home."
Arisu: "Alright, alright I'll do it now.*
Arisu stands up from the couch and walked upstairs to finish her homework, or so I thinl, I mean I don't know what's happening upstairs, I just hope she's doing her homework and not playing games.
Rikuro: "Well, what's next on my agenda*
I looked around the house for things I could do and when I didn't find any, I just go to the couch and watch the news.. it's now 5:00 pm.
News
"There is a massive earthquake that is happening on Hokkaido, it's magnitude has been estimated to be 7.0.
Rikuro: "That's a bit concerning.. well it's far from Tokyo anyways, we should be fine."
I keep watching the tv until it was 6:00 pm, Arisu was already downstairs by then. I got up from the couch and walked to the kitchen.
I took the rice cooker and put four scoops of rice in it before putting in water, I rinse the water and then I put more water, I rinse and repeat this until the color of the water is almost clear.
I put the rice cooker back and turned it on. When the rice cooker was cooking the rice, I pulled some fish out from the fridge, yes from the fridge not the freezer, because you can't cook frozen fish.
I put some soy sauce, salt, pepper and a little bit of that good stuff.. which is MSG!!
I let it marinate for a while, about 5 minutes before cooking it. When I finished cooking it, it's skin was golden and the aroma was beautiful. I turned off the rice cooker and looked back at my wonderful fish. Suddenly Arisu pounced on my back.
Arisu: "IS THAT FISH!?"
Rikuro: "Well thanks Sherlock"
Arisu: "Sherulaku?? What's that?"
Rikuro: "It's a western name, anyways get off my back you're heavy."
Arisu: "That's rude you know, baka nii-san!"
Rikuro: "Well isn't it the truth anyways?"
While I was teasing her, Arisu who is still on my back started moving erratically causing me to lose some of my balance.
Rikuro: "Woah! Hold it there now."
I slowly regained my balance gently put Arisu down on the couch, we both didn't cared enough to actually bicker anymore.. so me being an otaku, I walked upstairs into my room.
The room is a normal room, IF you removed all the anime merchandise, there's a glass cabinet on the side of the door, dedicated to anime figurines. You can see some which are very popular such as Pekora-chan, Rimuru, Veldora, Shiraori, Goku and many more.
Ignoring that one side of the room that is full of anime merchandise, I lay down on the bed and watched some Dragon Ball.
Time quickly passes to those who have fun. It's now about 7:00 pm and our parents came home.
I quickly walked downstairs to go and greet our parents, Arisu did the same.
My mother is the same height as me, her closed eye that seemingly gives comfort, that brown braided her of hers that is slumped on her shoulder, gives her the perfect look of a mother.
Mom: "Ara~ ara~, the house is clean.. and there's food on the table. It seems you two had been a very good child."
My mother patted both our heads, before I could even take her hands off my father talked, letting out his deep voice, scaring those who is not used to it.
My father has that extreme demenour outside that scares mostly everyone, but under that hard exterior is a father who loves his children. His black beard and hair gives him the look that tells everyone he's a dad, his black eyes, his muscular body that even shows through his suit, gives him the perfect look of a working out father.
Dad: "Hmm.. very well, it seems you two didn't laze around."
The extreme demenour my father put up quickly crumbled as his natural soft side came on..
What a happy family it was.
Rikuro: "Are we gonna eat, or are we just gonna stand here"
Arisu: "Yeah!! I wanna eat nii-san's fish!!"
Mom: "Ara~ ara~, it seems you all are hungry, let us eat now then"
Dad: "I also agree on that, I can't wait to taste my son's cooking"
And so we went to the dining table and ate. We exchanged our stories, our mood on the day, what happened to us and what did we do.
After we finished eating my parents told us that they have to sleep early due to there work, we have them a thumbs up of approval like it will do anything. I then go and clean the dishes while my sister watched on the television.
After I clean the dishes, I want and watched with my sister.
I looked at my watch.
It's 11:53 pm.
It's late and I told my sister to go back to sleep and so she did.
I wanted to buy something to eat.. something every otaku eats, probably..well it's called the cup noodles.
I went outside and walked to the nearest store. The store was a side store, like a house with a store, yeah you know what I mean.
I bought a cup noodles and I put it in a plastic bag.
I looked back at my watch.
It's 11:59 pm
I start to walk back to my house.
[11:59:42]
I was getting close to my house.
[11:59:56]
I saw the gates of my house
[11:59:59]
1 more step and I could've touched that gate.
[12:00:00]
But that gate never came.
The ground swallowed me.
Everything went black.
