Vol 1 Chapter 4 (2/2)
I ended up to be my own friend. No no, it can’t go on like this.
“My brother is not back yet, so please come in.”
“O… OK…”
…
Although this is my house, I feel very constrained…
Is it because my organs are different, so my feelings are different too?
It can’t be that complicated…
“You need something to drink?”
“Oh… Yes please.”
Since when have Rin-ichi turned this nice?
Normally, other than ordering me around, I had to do everything myself. Now she’s pouring tea for me. Is having a nice body and face that important? Was my face that bad?
Although I know Rin-ichi is this nice to pretty much everyone else, I’ve never experienced it.
You could say that, getting served by my own sister can never happen to me.
Was I too stupid?
Ah, maybe, people always say that I’m very slow.
“Why hasn’t Jin-ichi come back yet, it almost 7.”
“Ah ha ha…”
This is bad, this can turn really bad if I don’t come back soon...
Ain’t I already back!
But the problem is this body…
I accepted the cup of tea that was handed to me by Rin-ichi, holding it, I can feel the weight of the cup. My strength has noticeably decreased.
“Does he want to experience one more day of no food?”
Growl growl~
“Uwa…”
My body reacted itself when it heard the word food. I only ate a piece of bread today, that is far too little.
“Are you hungry? I have some food here, you need some?”
“... Yes please…”
There’s actually food. As a teenager that needs a lot of nutrients, I accepted without thinking.
…
Rin-ichi gave me a bowl of rice that was steaming. I starting eating like there’s no tomorrow when I saw such beautiful thing.
Ahh… First time thinking that it’s great to have a sister.
”Don’t eat so fast, I still have a lot. Looks like you’re really hungry. And Jin-ichi is not back yet, I was thinking to forgive him tonight and let him eat.”
Rin-ichi forgave me?
She really forgave me?
“But in the end he’s not back yet, and I haven’t eaten yet either…”
Rin-ichi hasn’t eaten yet?
This can’t wait any longer, I won’t be able to say it like this.
So I’m ready to tell her what happened to Jin-ichi. Even if Rin-ichi doesn’t believe me, I will make her believe me.
“Ummm…”
“Yes?”
“...”
I got nervous at a moment like this? I suck so much!
“Yea? You want more food?”
“It’s not that…”
“Hmm?”
“It’s that…”
Come on, come on, I’m a man, I can’t get nervous right now.
“I am Azumabas.h.i.+ Jin-ichi!”
Ahh… I said it…
Why do I think that this is harder than asking someone out? Is it because I suck that much? If it’s really that, then doesn’t it mean I suck at having a relations.h.i.+p too…
“Ahhhh?”
“I’m saying, I am Azumabas.h.i.+ Jin-ichi.”
Rin-ichi show a face of surprise. She's not just surprised, but very surprised.
Who would think that a girl would randomly come to your house, then after she ate some food in your house, she told you that “I am your brother”. Stupid things like this, would anyone believe it?
“You’re my brother?...”
“Yea… Yes.”
But then Rin-ichi calmed down.
“Liar.”
And showed a face of despise.
“You don’t believe me!”
“You do sound a bit like Jin-ichi, but, I will never believe that Jin-ichi has turned into a cute loli.”
Now that’s just hurtful… But I did turn into…
“But, I turned like this.”
I stood up, did a 360 degree spin. Showing Rin-ichi that this is not my body.
“I thought this was impossible too at first. It’s all because of that shooting star.”
“You’re talking about the shooting star yesterday night? So Jin-ichi really got hit… But, that happened yesterday… But..., but I didn’t see my brother… Is it really you?”
Rin-ichi is starting to believe it. Sometimes an otaku is easy to work with in a way.
“Yes it’s me.”
“...”
Rin-ichi suddenly jumped up, scaring me.
“Jin-ichi!”
“Yes?!”
I answered instantly, this is muscle memory…
“So it is my stupid brother.”
You confirmed like this..?
“Well, whatever you turned into, in the end, you are still Jin-ichi, right?”
“Ye… Yes…”
I then have a really bad feeling about this…
This is bad this is bad this is bad this is bad.
“You dare to pretend as a cute girl, and ate right under my nose…”
This is bad…
“No food for you tomorrow either!”
“What!?”
Noooooooooo!
…
Mukomi’s point of view:
Azumabas.h.i.+-kun actually turned into a little girl.
What happened?
I don’t know, I have no idea.
Azumabas.h.i.+-kun will turn back, right…?
I hope so…
Is Azumabas.h.i.+-kun alright…
Rin-ichi’s point of view:
Stupid Jin-ichi.
Although I don’t know why he turned like this.
But, he made me worry again.
He was like this yesterday too, right?
Why didn’t he just tell me…
Stupid onii-chan…
