Chapter 138 (2/2)

“Ririna”

“Mao!”

I was about to chide her when she suddenly stepped forward, pushed me aside, and put her hands on her hips

“Y-Yes…?”

“So your nae of being my little sister!” Ririna announced

“Eh!?” Mao-chan exclaimed

“Haaah!?” I blurted

It was so shocking that I couldn’t helpMao-chan her little sister!? What the hell was she on about!?

“Ummm…”

“If you’re Reika-san’s sister, then you’re as good as mine Call me Ririna-oneesama from today onwards!”

“Eh… Ririna… oneesama…?”

Ririna gave her a contented nod

“Wai-, Ririna…”

“So you’re from our primary section, Mao I see, and you’ve co over!? Then I’ll stay over too”

I called out to stop her but the conversation was progressing quickly withoutalong Wai-, and it was settled that Ririna would be staying over too!?

Just like I had yesterday, Ririna was enjoying the feeling of being an oneesan She told Mao-chan that she would teach her, and then began helping her with hoood at teaching And she was s in her exa truth that she ranked 20th in her last one!

“Wahh! You’re so smart, Ririna-oneesama!”

“20th place isn’t much I actually dropped ranks compared to my mid-terms”

I had lost… Mao-chan’s eyes were filled with complete respect for Ririna I quietly left the room

“Oh? What’s up, Reika? Where’s Mao-chan?” asked Oniisama

Today was his day off, so he had just been leaving his roolum face

“Ririna came over…”

“Ririna?”

After a quick peek into my room he muttered “I see”

Even from outside, I could hear their excitedly voices

“So Ririna stole Mao-chan from you”

“Yes…”

“Well, just try to have fun, the three of you When I’m back I’ll join in”

“Truly!?”

Oniisa to come home early then I saw Oniisama out and then headed back to the storehouse by myself

The other day I discovered so when I cae wooden box in the back of the room Out of curiosity I opened it up,

Inside was a bobcut japanese doll in a red Kimono

“Gyaaaaaahhh!” I had screamed

I hated dolls Worse yet, it turned out to be one of those mechanical chahakobi dolls that could walk and carry tea Despite knowing better, I wound up the spring and it began walkingnoises Scaaary! Dolls were scary already, but dolls that could move on their oere too much!

Behind rew In front of me was a creepy chahakobi doll who could ht ht

I had quickly returned the doll into its box and thenat the worry of those dolls visiting ht…

Noas the time to reawaken her

I took the chahakobi doll out of the storeroo When it was ready, I put it down in the gap between my opened door and the doorframe

It didn’t take long before the whole house heard the screams of Ririna and Mao-chan Uhehehehe This was punish away my position as oneesan~

Afterwards, Ririna furiously de, and I ended up apologising over and over as Mao-chan was half in tears

Later at night when Oniisaa It was nice having the nus like these

My bed wasn’t huge so I told Ririna so uest roo to sleep with us as well In the end the three of us ended up glued to each other in bed Cramped…

When Ririna heard about Mao-chan’s family situation she was infuriated

“What’s wrong with the! You should have just co off!”

“But…”

“Ririna, Mao-chan is not like you She is a gentle girl,” I objected

“H to tell them off she should just snatch the heirshi+p off her brother Show everyone just how much better she is Huhuhu, fool brother You’ll rue the day you made an enemy of us”

“Eh… U… And I don’t really want the heirshi+p either”

“Really?” asked Ririna

“Yes,” replied Mao-chan

That’s right That’s because Mao-chan was the successor to the Rococo throne instead

“Huh Then all you have to do is start laying the groundwork so that you can marry the man you hen the time comes”

“Where did e come from” I commented

The conversation wasso many leaps that I couldn’t keep up

“Obviously because if we don’t pay attention we’ll end up in soe chosen by our parents If she already has so now”

“Hahh… You are still just a child and you already think about these things?”

“Of course I’s I’ too carefree, Reika-san You never think about anything, do you”

“…Sorry”

That night I realised that for all that she acted spoilt, Ririna had a serious side to her that was already prepared to take a husband

I only ever thought about hoould live my life after my family fell to ruin, but if I continued on the way I ould I eventually end up in an arranged e as well…?

No, no, I had to ! Not that I had a partner in h!

While I wasto myself, Ririna and Mao-chan had fallen fast asleep,

I had once heard that sleeping in a symmetrical pose made you ently s so that they matched
