Chapitre 16: Mom, Son, adopted Daughter
Year 12 Unknown Month
"Son, this is Chikage. I found her crawling her way out of the trash bin. I plan on making her my disciple and adopted to the kushinada. You don't mind right?" Asked mother while she gently pushed chikage forward. I'm surprised that she asked me whether it's okay for her to adopt Chikage to the kushinada. Probably she still felt guilty for all those years that she was not with me, and probably scared that I will resent her for suddenly taking another child, that is not related by blood to us, as her child. This is when I need to support her.
"Meh, do what you want mom. If you feel this is the right to do, then go on. But she is so skinny mom. Our clan technique might focus more on the technique, but she is still too skinny mom, you need to fill her up" I said to mom.
"I know, I know. That's the plan. Thank you, Genji. Anyway, about your manga, you could publish them at my company. one of my subsidiary companies is a publishing company that specializes in publishing manga and novels. The company is also quite famous, so you don't need to worry that your manga won't be profitable." said mom.
"Ahhhh, thank you, mom, you are the best mother I could ask for hehe," I said to her.
"Of course I am. Even if I'm not, I'm still the better parent compared to your father right? Anyway, Chikage, he is my son, Genji. From now on he will become your senior disciple in kushinada style and your big brother. From now on, you are part of my family, so your name from now on is Kushinada Chikage" Explained mom to chikage.
"Of course mom" I replied her
"Y... Yee... Yes, Ma's" Stuttering and shyly chikage answered mom. From the way she talked, she probably never had someone that teach her how to speak properly.
" Call me mom chikage okay? Now, introduce yourself to him. you can call him brother Genji" Said mom patiently.
"He.. Hello broth... er Genji, my na. I am Kush..inada Chikage, Ple....ase take care of me" stuttering with a red face and teary eyes, she introduces herself to me. I guess she doe not have anybody to rely on.
"Hello, chikage, nice to meet you. My name is Genji. My full name is either Arashi Genji or Kushinada Genji since I came from both clans. When you are Healthy enough, let's play and train together, okay? And you don't have to be shy with me, call me big brother" I replied to her.
"Oka...y Bi..g Br....other" Replied Chikage.
Now she is not hiding behind her, I can observe her, and I realize how bad is her condition
The current chikage look almost look like a skeleton, and I believe she should be around 6 years old, but she is so small. She is far from what a cute little girl her age should look like. This is what happened to most people, adults or children, that lack the necessary nutrients for their body for a long time.
Seeing her like this, I realize that no children should have experienced what chikage did, and there must be a lot more children like her. No child deserved to live like that. If adults live miserable lives, it's either their fault or even if they are not to fully blamed for their condition, they are still partially to be blamed for their condition. But children? it's purely either the parents or the environment they lived in to be blamed. After all, children are in a phase where they still do not comprehend the way of the world.
It's also the reason why I don't like the adults that exploited children for their gain. and unfortunately, no matter what era and country we lived in, there will always be some adults that do that.
I felt blessed that I have my clan and mom now. I know that I had a bad past too from my previous life, but there is nothing that I can do to change that besides embracing them in my heart. And I am grateful for my clan and mom. Especially mom. I know that my dad banged her, it's not out of for love that I wished for my parents to be, but because of the bet they made. But mom has the option to abort me when she is pregnant with me. So I am grateful to her to choose to give birth to me.
This is the moment that made me resolve what I need to do in the future. When I had a lot of money in the future, I will hire a lot of people to help children in need like chikage.
What? I should do it myself? Need, There is only little that a single person can do physically. No matter how strong I became in the future, I cannot save all of them. And if I can help them without doing anything, why not? It's a win-win situation for me. I can laze around, and a lot of children still can be saved from whatever hellish pit they are. So, all the children that I need to personally save are the ones who somehow luckily encountered me.
A lot of things can be done when you had money. Good thing or bad thing.
