Yoshibia (unrated)
by Philip Harris

Chapter 3.  Yoshiba's Brother.

Yoshi told her family the same lie that all her friends
used, that she got the money for her new clothes and other
things by taking an after-school job at the big
International Arcade.  At least a hundred high school
students really did work there part time; it was a huge,
noisy place crowded with young people; no parents ever went
in there.

When Yoshi gave this excuse at the family dinner table her
second-oldest brother made a disbelieving noise and opened
his mouth to say something, but her oldest brother, Tobi,
cut him off with a fierce look.  As the eldest son, Tobi
was responsible for his siblings, and he wasn't going to
allow anything to be said that would upset their parents.
That settled the matter for the moment, because now it was
a matter between Yoshi and him.

After dinner Tobi took Yoshi aside and demanded the truth.
Any modern Japanese girl might lie in a situation like
this, but Yoshi loved Tobi and all of her family and so she
confessed the truth to him.

"That is a very bad mistake," Tobi told her.  "What you are
giving up is far more precious than material things."

"It is not about the material things," Yoshi explained,
"you know that.  It is the social standing that those
things can bring me with my peers.  I have to be someone,
and to be someone I have to have the things that my friends
have."

"What about later, when you marry?" he asked.

"What about Sheng-Sheng?  You will marry her.  Were you her
first boyfriend?  Would she be a good girlfriend if she
came to you knowing nothing?"

"Everything Sheng-Sheng knows is from me," Tobi said.

"My husband will believe that everything I know is from him
too," Yoshi retorted, but she immediately felt terrible for
saying it.

"I am very sorry Tobi," she said at once.  "I am very
sorry.  Sheng-Sheng is a good girlfriend to you."  Yoshi
began crying, ashamed for having said cruel words about her
brother's fiancée.

"I have to do it, Tobi," she said through sniffles.  "I am
sixteen and would have a boyfriend anyway.  Why not a
boyfriend who can buy me nice things?"

"You will have to move out of the house if Father finds out
about this," Tobi said.  "We are a very traditional family
because Father believes in old values.  He will send you to
live with relatives far away.  You will not see your sister
Chen grow up.  You will not see your brother Lu's
graduation.  You will not see my wedding with Sheng-Sheng."

"Father will not find out," Yoshi said.

"Do you think he is blind?  Do you think he didn't see the
new bracelet that he asked you about tonight?"

"I will keep everything with my boyfriend," Yoshi said, "in
hat boxes at his home.  I'll change my clothes there, and
in the family's presence I will only show what Father and
Mother give me."

"You did not do that tonight, with the bracelet."

"It was so pretty and so new and expensive that I forgot
myself.  I wore it home so that I could show it at school
tomorrow.  I won't make that mistake again.  I'll keep
small things for school in my school bag, and I will only
dress in the clothes my boyfriend gives me when I'm with
him or my friends."

"And will you keep your baby in a hat box too, if you have
one of those?"

"I will be careful Brother," Yoshi said.  "I will not have
a baby.  I will go with my boyfriend to the doctor and tell
the doctor that we are married and the doctor will give me
birth control to prevent babies."

"Listen to me Yoshi," Tobi said, taking her hand and
kneeling to her eye level.  Yoshi's eyes were still wet
with tears, and even though her brother was a man it looked
like he had tears in his eyes too.

"Listen to me.  You don't even love this man.  Don't you
see how important that is?  Of course you are old enough to
have a boyfriend, but he should be a boyfriend from your
own school, a boy who you've known for many years and who's
family you know."

"He should be a boy who you can tell our parents about, who
can come and eat with us and be a part of our family."

"You don't understand," Yoshi pleaded, crying again.  "You
don't understand how it is in school today.  Our life in
this family is not normal.  Our mother doesn't even work
full time, so she cannot afford to buy me normal things.
She bought me a new pocketbook last week, but it is a
pocketbook from last year."

"I do understand Yoshiba," Tobi said.  "It has been just a
few years since I was in high school."

"Do you remember Sheng-Sheng's sister?" Tobi asked.  "She
became an enjo kosai girl.  Now you do not see her around
the neighborhood anymore.  All of her family still love
her, but she does not show her face here anymore."

"Sheng-Sheng's family and our family are too traditional,
Yoshi said.  "I don't want to live in this neighborhood all
my life Tobi.  I need to have a life of my own."

"You would not like to live where Sheng-Sheng's sister now
lives, Little Sister," Tobi said.  "You would not like to
live the life that she now lives."

"I have my own body," Yoshi replied.  "It is not up to
anyone else to tell me what I can do with my body."
