pieces of youth

Summary:

A small history of the Itoshi siblings' childhood told through drabbles.

Notes:

I'm trying to write drabbles for an ongoing writing game in a Discord server and that what came out of it. I might write more since it's a good exercice, so feel free to tell me what you want to see!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1

Notes:

First up is a double drabble!

Chapter Text

   Changing countries doesn't seem as hard as everyone makes it out to be. While his parents run around, making sure all his papers and belongings are in his bag, Sae is on his phone, looking at photographs sent by his manager of his future training center. With his chin resting on Sae’s shoulder, Rin comments on everything he sees with a growing enthusiasm that almost infects Sae – an outsider might even mistake him for the brother going to Spain.

   The next image, far from being one of a football field, shows a restaurant. Clicking his tongue, Sae swipes right, and of the dozen following pics, all of them show restaurants, museums, and historical monuments that don’t interest him whatsoever. If his manager thinks he's going to do anything other than train, he's sorely mistaken… Unaware of his brother's annoyance, Rin points to the phone.

“Nii-chan, take me there with your first paycheck.”

   On the screen is a pic of an ice-cream shop – at least, that's what Sae understands with his basic Spanish – which Rin looks at with stars in his eyes.

“If you catch up to me by then.”

   It’ll be a nice reward for when they reach the top.
