Volume 1 Chapter 3.4 (1/2)
I’m looking at a dream.
Though it is a dream, it is a settlement of my past memory.
The dream is the event when I was in my original world.
However, the memory is not showing clearly. As expected of a dream, it is like noisy sounds of a damaged tape.
However, I could understand it clearly.
This dream is about the memory on that day.
The dream is about me who was still in my original world decided how I will live.
Kanami Aikawa’s root memories.
On that day, in the hospital room, I met face to face with my beloved little sister.
In the dream, my sister is smiling gently.
She is my only sister in the world. Her name is. .h.i.taki Aikawa.
She is my proud little sister who has long jet-black hair like a graceful j.a.panese woman.
Hitaki who has a white body is sitting on the pure white bed. She moves her white body, she is looked as in pain and the clean hospital bed is bent because she is sitting.
Her jet-black hairs pushed back her slender arms. Her white body and pair of unkempt jet-black hairs are filling the atmosphere of hospital’s room. Her long straight black hairs are enough to make you think hard to harm it.
At the moment, I hear the voice of Hitaki.
?Big brother……Did you come to visit me today too??
?Of course. From now on, I’m going to visit you everyday?
That’s obvious.
Hitaki has a disease.
And, the cause of her disease is me. It’s obvious I have to visit her.
?Big brother? Everyday? Maybe tomorrow is going to rain?
Hitaki is laughing with her sarcasm towards me.
?Ah, from now on we are going to be together always……?
I seriously promise her without losing her sarcasm.
?But, you will not be able to play your favorite game, you know? Even so, you don’t mind??
?Certainly that’s too bad. But, I will endure it. I don’t have time to play the game anymore since for Hitaki only have n.o.body but me. From now on, I will protect you. I will definitely protect you?
On that day, our parent’s existence disappeared from family. ?We erased them. And, the Aikawa family members are only us. Therefore, we decided to treasure and to take care each other.
?From now on, Big brother is……??
?Yup, I will protect you and always be together?
Until that day, I wasn’t even able to do my role properly. I went away from the Aikawa family, and my little sister has been treated as nothing at all by our parents. My little sister was doing her best but all I can was just run away. That is my miserable and sinful story. I have to make a redemption.
?I’m happy…… Finally, at last……my brother do care about me……?
Hitaki’s hands are trembling with teary eyes and her tear falls on her chest.
It is painful to see her weak appearance. However, I can’t look away. I have to look at her. With no one else but our bond as brother and sister.
I hug her trembling body.
I’m hugging her until her tears stop and her trembling stops.
And, my little sister lets out a voice slowly while hearing my beating heart.
She let out words in the state while she is weaving.
?We will always be together……? I’m really happy……?
