Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 112. The Most Valuable People. 1
Tokyo, Japan in 2018.
Yuki Family Residence, in the morning during the summer.
“Kino, Ryou! We have to sooner or later the beach is full!”
The figure of a woman who put a lot of canned drinks into a large ice box and the figure of a man carrying a dozen bottles of water placed in the trunk of a car.
On the second floor, in a room belonging to a child.
“Ryou, father and mother have already called. Otherwise sooner we will be late to go to beach”
“Patience first, Kino! I have to put my PS Vita in the bag!”
“Haaa, yes already. I got off ya”
The boy left his sister and went downstairs.
“Eh!! Waitme! Why did you leave me alone! Cinema!”!
In a hurry, the child stuffed many things including a game-shaped long object into his bag. In a hurry, something fell on the floor of the room without the child being aware of it.
The family finally got into the car and left.
“Ryou, don't tell mom that you're long for entering your game” asked the mother who sat in the front seat with her husband
“I haven't finished the next level to fight the last boss, mother” Ryou replied while looking for something in her bag
“Other times, prepare first before going to bed. I told you before, right?”
“Umm” Ryou replied briefly as if he didn't care
Kino saw the sister who was busy with her bag and went back to see the beach brochure to be addressed.
“Dad, we will stay at a hotel near the beach today?” ask Kino
“Hmm, had wanted to book a hotel room, but since today we will only play until the afternoon maybe next time. I'm sorry, Kino” replied the father who drove the car
“It's okay. I'm just asking. In addition, today is the second day in the summer so we still have a lot of time with” Kino giving response with a smile
Both of their parents smiled hearing him and were suddenly startled by Ryou's screaming voice.
“No!! PS Vita that I should have put is not in the bag?!”
“What's up, kids?” ask the mother with a panicked face
“Ryou?”
Kino looked at the younger brother sitting next to her with a confused face. After putting the brochure back in her bag, Kino asked her sister.
“Are you sure there really isn't inside? Didn't Ryou already enter it before leaving?”
“But this is not inside!!”
Ryou answered Kino with emotion and panic. However, the older brother tried to calm down and help him find the object in his bag.
“Let me find it. Hopefully just tucked inside. Give me your bag, Ryou”
Ryou gives Kino his bag and carefully removes the items in his bag.
“Have met the game?” ask the father who is driving
“Not yet. Still wanted. Hopefully not left behind” replied Kino while looking slowly
After taking out and tidying up Ryou's belongings, Kino had to sigh because the item was completely nowhere to be found in his bag.
“Sorry, it really doesn't exist. Looks like it's left at home, Ryou. I have fixed it back”
Kino gives Ryou the bag, but the younger brother's reaction is unexpected. He pulled her with emotion and was angry at her brother.
“This is all because you left me earlier! I told you to wait for me but you got off first! This is all Kino's fault!!” ryou exclaimed with a tone of emotion and an angry face
“Ryou! You can't say that to your sister! I told you to prepare the things you want to bring before you go to bed but you didn't, did you? You mustn't blame Kino for your carelessness!”
The mother is angry with Ryou but Ryou does not care. She ignored the mother's words and refused to see Kino. Kino who received such treatment could only look at the younger brother with a sad and regretful look.
“I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Na–later my juice can Ryou drink. Chocolate too. Don't get mad ya”
“Whispering!! Don't talk to me!” Ryou yelled at Kino
“Ryou..”
The surprised Kino could only be silent and sad. The mother tried to advise her son but all was unsuccessful. On the way to the beach, the two brothers just kept silent without having any conversation.
Arriving at the beach, it looks a very crowded atmosphere. Many families are joking and spending time like a family enjoying the summer, except for the Yuki family now.
Under two large beach umbrellas, the two brothers did not talk to each other. The sister, who chose to sit far away from her brother and the mother, tried repeatedly to advise her son when the father went to pick up a large ice box in the car.
“Listen, we're here for fun. I don't want you guys to shut up like this, especially you Ryou! You can't yell at your sister like that! After all, it's all your fault, not Kino's!”'s fault
“Hmph!” Ryou ignored the words of his mother
“This child!!!” the mother tried to hold back her emotions
Kino approached her mother and tried to calm her down.
“Mother, it's okay. I was the one who was wrong for leaving Ryou earlier. Don't be mad at Ryou again ya”
“Kino, don't spoil your sister too much. I don't want her age of 10 years, she's still being selfish like this to her brother”
“It's okay. Let me talk to him ya”
“Ya. I'll help you first. You guys don't go anywhere ya”
“Ryou, this is my juice. I'm sorry I left you. Don't be angry again ya”
- Plaac
Ryou refuses by hitting Kino's hand and making his apple juice fall into the sand of the beach.
“Whispering! Don't come any closer! Go there!”
“Ryou..
The sad Kino took the juice of the box and sat down on the other side of their place with a sad look on his face. Not only are they far apart, but they don't talk at all. Ryou who ignores Kino for blaming the brother and Kino who are silent despite trying to make up with the sister.
Both of their parents came back and really couldn't do much except persuade their two children to each other.
The sun was getting higher and the hot weather was getting hotter. It was getting late and the Yuki family was enjoying swimming time on the beach like everyone else.
The father and Ryou play ball on the watery beach while the mother and Kino stand while looking at the shells in the water.
“Have made up with Ryou?” ask Kino
“Not yet. She was really mad at me, bu” Kino replied sadly
“Do not think. He was like that. Later if he needs something, he will definitely ask his brother” for help
“It's okay. I was wrong to leave him down. If only I hadn't left him, Ryou would probably be playing his favorite game” Kino still blamed himself
“If he's playing a game, then what's the point of us playing to the beach? That kid was stubborn a long time ago. I wonder if your father used to be like that”
“But the one who gave birth to Ryou and I was a mother. It's possible that Ryou's nature is declining from mother when the children used to” Kino replied innocently once
The mother who heard his son's answer immediately invited him to play by tickling his stomach and neck. Those who are playing water on the beach look very happy.

From the other side, Ryou sees the older brother having fun and laughing with his mother. The father smiled and asked him.
“Sorry to have yelled at your sister, Ryou?”
“.....” Ryou just silence while holding the beach ball in his hand
The father approached his son and said while rubbing his head.
“You better apologize to your brother”
“I don't want to! Kino was wrong for leaving me! Because of that, my game so left at home!”
“But, isn't the one who cleaned up those things Ryou?”
“....” Ryou pouted
“You must not blame others for your mistakes, Ryou. After all, if the game was in your bag, would Ryou choose to play with that game instead of playing with us?”
“Of course I will swim on the beach and play ball with dad like this, after that play water with mom also”
“Just play with mom and dad?” the father asked in a soft tone
“...Main..with Kino also”.
Ryou started to blush as he held back the crying. He dropped his beach ball and started to shed tears. Little ryou cried. The father quickly held her and hugged her.
“Have, don't cry anymore. I'll accompany Ryou to apologize to Kino ya”
Ryou just nodded while crying in his father's arms. The father walked over to the mother and Kino who had gone to their place first to sit in the shade.
“It's better?” ask mom
“Already. Thank you for coming with me to play ya bu” Kino smile sweetly signifies he is better
The mother saw her husband coming to hold her other son. Suddenly, the woman immediately stood up and approached the two. Kino, who had initially sat down while drinking her apple juice box, stood up in panic.
“Honey, what's wrong with Ryou?” ask the mother with a worried face
“Ryou, are you okay?” Kino asked Ryou with anxious feelings
“You don't panic like that. Ryou's okay, isn't he?”
The father lowered his son and wiped away his tears.
“Remember, I will accompany you. Your brother is already here and he is worried about you” once
“....” Ryou is silent
Kino who saw that only looked at the sister in confusion. When the father accompanied the second son to approach the brother, suddenly the sister went to run to their place and sat there without seeing the brother's face.
“Ryou!” Kino called his sister
“Haaa~” dad sighed long while shaking his head
“Why with the kid?” ask mom
The father knelt down and approached his first son who was still confused to see his sister's attitude.
“Kino, please accompany your sister for a moment. He's just sad so don't put it in your heart. It's not all your fault”
“I understand. I'm not mad at him, dad. Later, I will try to apologize again to him and will invite him to play” Kino replied with a smile
“Good. Dad and mom are gonna buy some snacks for you. Do not go anywhere ya” orders the father while rubbing his son's head
Kino nodded and went to accompany her sister who was sitting by herself.
