15. introductions

They pulled up to the house as Akio got out of the car and looked at the house he grew up in and felt nothing towards it but a bittersweet feeling. Aina and Akane head in the house first. Issey, ren, Haruto, Ichiro, and Arata stayed behind and looked at Akio with a serious face. Ichiro looked at this little brother of his that used to have a big happy smile but it was like that person had died. Ichiro said "Akio we know you don't want to be here but  can you be nice to your

nieces and nephews before we get inside?"  All the brothers looked at him waiting for an answer.  Akio looked at his phone and finally looked up at them and said "whatever". And walk towards the house and the brothers follow behind.  Akio opened the door and saw some women, some kids, Cindy, Michael, and his parents. There was a lot of food on the table and it looked like the table had gotten bigger. Akio walked in with his brothers behind. His parents gave him a hug which made him want to hurt them. His brother came one by one introducing their family. First was Issey.  He said, "you have met Aina and Akane but this is your sister-in-law her name is Kimberly ". Akio looked indifferent towards them so then came the next brother. Ren said, "ok little bro this is my wife Simone, and this our daughter her Lexi". Lexi looked up at Akio and said  "hello uncle ". Akio looked at the little girl with the pretty pink dress on and a cute face. He did not want to talk but somewhere in his heart, he knew he did not want his nieces and nephews to think that he hated them so he decided to talk. Akio said, "please meet you, Lexi". Lexi just gave him a big smile which made Akio feel weird but on came their next brother. Arata stepped up and said, "well you know Cindy but this is our daughter's hope ". Akio looked at Cindy who is still his best friend and at hope with her small cute face with a blue dress on. He knew about her marrying Arata and about hope because they talked through letters. Akio said," I still think you could have found someone better but if you are happy ". And gave Cindy a hug which shocked everyone except Michael because he was one of those still talking to Akio through letters as well.  It's just that his family did not know that he was talking to his best friends because he was not talking to them so they thought he was doing the same thing to everyone. And his brothers' wives in kids were just confused. Arata looked over at Cindy and said "do you guys still talk to each"? Cindy smiled and said "yes Michael and I still communicated with Akio over the years. I just felt that the family could not take the news well so I said nothing about this matter ". Akio mom,dad, and brothers  were  very upset by this news but no talked about any further so then came the next brother. haruto said "this my wife Elizabeth and son Maxwell or you just call him max". Akio looked at Max and Elizabeth and said "hello nice to meet you" . And Elizabeth said "you as well Akio".  A  not too big and not too small hand came across and said "Hey uncle Akio I have heard alot about you and I want to join special Forces one day like you".  Akio looked at Max coldly because this kid knew nothing about what it was like. how many Akio  had to kill with his hands and how many comrades he has lost . Akio did not want his emotions to get out of control so he said "mm". Max  had on black jeans with a white long sleeve shirt that white on .Max looked up at his uncle and was confused by his "mm" but on came the last brother. Ichiro said "this is his wife her name Jessica but you can call her Jess and this is daughter  Summer and our son Christopher but you call him Chris .And yes they are twins also are Aina and Akane if  Issey did not tell you". Akio looked at Chris who had the same thing on as Max and at summer who had on a red dress . And Akio said'' please to meet you all'' . Summer and Chris smile at  him and said '' you as well uncle''. Finally last in line was his boy best friend Michael.  Michael said "bring it in here  old friend". And he hugged Akio and  Akio did not push away which did not shock everyone anymore because Cindy revealed the reason already.  Dad came forward and said "now that everyone knows who is who .Let's  all go eat". Everyone walk to table
