77 Cruelty (2/2)

”Charlotte?!?!”

My exclamation jolted everyone awake.

”Mugyuu?!?!”

”M-Meow!”

”O-Onii-chan?!?!”

Not caring about their reactions, I immediately grabbed Charlotte's shoulder and shook it, just to confirm that she is really there.

”Charlotte! I-It's really you, right? You're finally back right?”

”O-Of course, Onii-chan!”

”I-I'm so glad...”

Feeling relieved that nothing had happened to Charlotte, I immediately pulled her into my embrace. Tears flowed down my eyes and landed on Charlotte's cheeks, but I don't really care, though. I'm just relieved that she is fine, however...

”Yuuji...”

”Nii-sama...”

Hanako and Mio were glaring daggers at me. Somehow, they reached a mutual agreement and pulled my ears from their respective sides and dragged me away.

”We need to talk, Nii-sama. You already have a bride, you know? Learn to respect her. And also, don't forget about me. I'm also somewhat like your secondary wife. Now... Let's give you a nice, long lecture. If you will, Hanako Nee-sama”

”Sure thing Mio.”

They both pushed me onto the ground in the next moment. Then, Hanako stepped on my back while she gave me a long lecture about respecting your partners.

*Sniff* Why are they so cruel...?
