23rd of April, Tuesday
Me storm
According to the weather forecast a stor
Ever since
Was she worried about weather? I thought that and asked her It seems like it wasn't the weather but her family hat she was troubled about
Mariko has a a little sister in middle school, Chitose-chan She noticed her little sister's strange behaviour recently and she's worried that she ht have found a boyfriend
The Chitose-chan I kneas a shy and withdrawn girl At least that's the iot because she always hid behind Mariko
So it was a bit surprising toafter its parents and followed her Onee-chan I think Mariko was being overprotective
Back then she was too embarrassed to make eye contact with me, as Mariko's friend
I said a baseless follow-up to her ”No matter how much you worry, it won't help unless you see theht”
Mariko responded with a dispirited ”I guess” She seemed quite overwhelmed by it
No matter what kind of boy it was, it see it was a boy Certainly, if ot a lover I would be worried too
My little sisters too, will one day find someone they love
Although I have to bless them as their brother, that makes me a bit uneasy
I somehow survived the classes and went back hoe of the room's number on the smart key continued
I stood in front of Room 601's door and sounded the chi a little sister's roo was rude There's a need to show some respect
However, the galued to the controller
The door wasn't opening I tried opening it slightly and looked inside
Instead of hearing gunfire and explosion sounds I found Toh clothing comprised of a T-shi+rt and hot pants
”I have awaited you, Nii-chan!”
She looked up at me with a stiff expression and tried to stand up
”Why are you in seiza?!”
”I was looking forward to seeing Nii-chan so ht before the release of an epic gaht, I stood up! Yeahh!”
Because she was sitting in seiza posture, she was unfaile To like a zombie
I've caught her
Theelastic texture press against me
”Nii-chan, I don't feel s! It's super extra numbness!”
”Just how long were you sitting like that?”
”About thirtyfrom Nii-chan”
”Let's go to the living room for now Can you walk?”
”I invoke the right of princess carry”
”Let go of me”
”No no nooooo Tch Nii-chan's stingy”
I lent To roos I also sat down on the sofa The rooe froe TV were still there Plastic models still adorned the shelves
”So, what did Nii-chan come here for? Did you come to be mushy mushy with me?”
”Mushywith Tos”
”I refuse!”
Tohtly I diverted aze away from her chest which shook from the momentum
”Nii-chan, look over here properly”
”Y-yeah, sorry you refuse?”
Shenod
”Does Nii-chan want to make me his little sister?”
”Of course Not only Tomomi, I want all of you to be my little sisters I don't knohat to do yet, but I do have such intention”
”I've already said that I don't want to become a little sister haven't I? Instead, I'h”
”So is there any difference?”
Toain
”Yup I don't want to be protected by Nii-chan At the very least I want to be on equal footing with you That's why I don't want you to makebrother?!'”
As she said that, she downcast her gaze and blushed
”But you see,to bethe tiether, I'ht? The eldest daughter? I'm in a position that requires me to act responsibly”
”Y-yeah, you're right”
”That's why just e're alone together, I want to be spoiled by Nii-chan a lot you see”
A maiden's heart is complex but not as much as Tomomi's little sister's heart
”You don't want me to make you a little sister, but you want to be spoiled by me is that what it means”
”If Nii-chan is all right with it, I'e match or carbonated drink-all-at-once match I prepared a vast menu of matches”
”But that isn't you being spoiled is it?”
Tomomi puckered her lips and twisted her body
”I just want Nii-chan to pay attention toI want I s My status screen has been showing that I'm in 'confused' state for a while now”
She made a troubled face and raised her eyebrows
”C-calm down First of all, take a deep breath”
Suuhaasuuhaa!, even as she took deep breaths Toet
”I haven't won anyof Nii-chan?”
”As long as it's so I can do”
”I-I want a lap pillow”
If she calms down that much, then fine As I nodded, Toht next to me, she put her head on top of my lap
”So this is Nii-chan's lap pillow, a bit high up”
I responded jokingly to her
”Indeed, it seeht adjustment has been jinxed”
While having her head on top of th in her body fade
”Have you calmed down?”
”It feels good, Nii-chan Umm Nii-chan, do you know about Daddy?”
”By Daddy you mean about Jinya-san?”
My recognition of hiuous probably that's the reason I've started to call him 'Jinya-san'
For Tomomi Taishi+do, Jinya was also her father
”Yup I've never met him Did you, Nii-chan?”
”I did However, I didn't knoas my father A kind uncle who co”
”Hee So he was kind”
”He listened to any request I've told him but when I recall it, it didn't feel like a father More like a sorcerer or a Santa Claus”
”What's that? I know that Santa Claus real identity is that of Daddy, but for Daddy's real identity to be Santa Claus?”
”That's a strange way to put it, but it's exactly that kind of ie of father I have is that of a strong and scary person, Jinya-san was far from that”
To a voice full of emotions I continued
”More importantly, is it really true that you never met him?”
”That's right”
She nodded with an careless expression
”Speaking of which, what did you do until you came here? You never came here to meet Jinya-san, did you?”
”I didn't By the way, I've been in the house of Mommy's relatives I don't remember it well, but it seems like I was probleers after all they didn't become my family”
As To her head
”Hey! Nii-chan, that's a foul!”
”S-sorry So you wanted to be tickled?”
”Not that I was just surprised because it was sudden Uht to continue Use surprise attacks all you want! I accept the challenge!”
Tomomi faced away as she lay down on ry voice at all
She continued
”Nii-chan, tell me more about Daddy”
”Even if you ask me, I don't knohat to tell you”
To about Taishi+do Jinya, probably neither has Selene, Sayuri, Yuuki nor Mika I don't knoas the reason, but he only met with me, the eldest son he was a horrible father after all
”Anything is fine How many times did you meet?”
”About once a month”
”What did you do when you met?”
The fact that I was given preferential treatment stabbed into uessed what I thought and said brightly
”You don't need to refrain yourself because of me I was the one who asked”
I nodded deep inside my mind
”Uether a lot Also, he took ht me some toys Just as I told you before, he was like a Santa Claus who came once in a month He listened to whatever selfish request I made”
”Was he a good person?”
”He was a gentle person”
”I see”
Tomomi continued with a lonely tone
”Listen, iven support, it's not only Nii-chan who's special”
She was concerned about me
”Hey Tomomi, about the support and all that's to be from now on I think we need to speak with Murasaki-san”
She raised her head and turned around towards me
”Then let's go right now, Nii-chan!”
”Now?”
”If we're to go, then the faster the better”
”You're right Then, I'”
I rose up froetically
”I won't let Nii-chan go alone”
”You're going to help me persuade her?”
”Yup I'hter, ain't I Since I' with the eldest son, you can rely on th to Nii-chan”
She said so proudly and puffed her chest I nodded while re sound
”Sorry no, thank you To”
”If I' she's in room 202”
”Eh? Why do you knohere Murasaki-san's room is?”
”Umm, look! I've heard from Mika Let's depart immediately, shall we, Nii-chan?”
”But is it fine? Today is Tomomi's day, don't you want to be spoiled?”
”It's fine, it's fine Let's finish the talk fast and as long as you take care of me it's all okaay”
Even so, she won't become my little sister will she
My hand was pulled by Toether
After going down to the second floor by elevator, we stood in front of room 202 which was next to Mika's Of course my smart key didn't react to room 201 or 202
Toht in front of the door
”What kind of ambush would be the best, Nii-chan?”
”Heyy, what ambush can't we just normally sound the chime?”
”But we can't shake her up like that right? If we attack her from the front, we'll encounter her defense We need to attack the enele she doesn't expect and push to win!”
She theory-crafted the tactical approach For her to coamer I was honestly impressed
There was so a feint attack
To break through Murasaki-san's guard, we ht need to take special action But it's best if we don't offend her
Tomomi took a peek at the intercom's camera
”I have an idea”
”Before we execute it, could you tell me what kind of plan is it?”
”The fact that Nii-chan ht come must be within Murasaki-san's expectations First I will call Murasaki-san myself Nii-chan will squat down in front of the door so that he doesn't appear on the camera”
”Oh-ho, I see And then?”
”I will call Murasaki-san by saying 'There's so I want to talk about' When Murasaki-san opens the door, Nii-chan will appear froap of the door so that it can't be closed”
