“Um, how far back should we go?”
“Well, let’s see. Start from the first grade of elementary school.”
“Got it ! I was the oldest child in kindergarten at that time, and I used to cry a lot. Onii always came near me and comforted me when I cried.”
Misora is talking about a nostalgic story.
It was a long time ago. It was more than ten years ago.
Come to think of it, Misora used to cry a lot.
I think I used to run to her every time she cried and comfort her.
“It’s just like Sora, isn’t it?”
“Yes, it is. He was always there for me even if I didn’t say anything, and he always stood by my side no matter what happened.”
“That’s normal for an older brother.”
“No, I don’t think so. It’s rare to find an older brother who cares so much about his sister.”
“I don’t know about that.”
Our parents didn’t pay much attention to us at home, so we were always spending time together.
Sometimes I would hang out with Runa too.
Now that I think about it, I’ve been friends with Runa since kindergarten.
“That’s right. At least, no one I know around me is as close as you two are.”
“I also think Onii is kind. He has never really gotten angry at me before.”
“That’s because Misora has never done anything bad. We have always helped each other out.”
The two of us have lived together for the most part of our lives.
My parents were more concerned about Runa.
I don’t really feel like there are three people in my family because of that.
I consider Misora to be my only living relative.
“I always thought Sora was kind, but I guess that was always the case.”
“He has always been kind to me, even after I went to elementary school, he would come running to me whenever there was a problem and help me solve it. I felt a great sense of security when Onii came to see me~.”
“I think I kind of understand that too. I also felt relieved from the bottom of my heart when Sora came to me when I was almost attacked on the rooftop.”
“………”
Please don’t talk about such a story in front of Misora.
It’s really embarrassing !
No, seriously.
I can feel my face turning red.
My face is hot.
My ears are hot, and I’m so embarrassed that I want to run away from this place.
“Onii is embarrassed～”
“Seriously. You’re so cute, even your ears are red.”
“Don’t tease me. I’ll get so embarrassed if I have to hear something like that.”
“I’ve never seen Sora like that before, so it’s nice and fresh.”
I’m being teased a lot, but that’s okay.
It looks like fun.
There is no malice involved so I don’t feel bad about it.
“I’m just glad you’re having fun.”
“I’d like to ask you something related to the old story of Sora, how did they get together with Horii san? I know I should say it, but Sora was pretty shy, wasn’t he? He even tried to keep his distance from me by belittling himself, even though I had shown him my affection for him.”
Towa stares at me with a jealous look and it makes me uncomfortable.
I made a vow in my mind for the umpteenth time that I will really try not to act rashly from now on.
“Hmm. I don’t know much about that part of it. I only heard a little about it from Onii. Runa Nee didn’t tell me much about it either.”
“Then, Sora. May I ask how you met and what you did while you were together?”
“Wait, wait !? Why do I have to tell you about Runa, my ex-girlfriend while we are dating now ! What kind of torture is that !”
As expected, I don’t want to tell you.
I mean, do normal couples want to hear about their ex-girlfriends?
I definitely don’t want to talk about it.
I don’t even want to remember them in the first place.
“Just tell me ! Don’t worry, I won’t get mad at you no matter what.”
“Onii, give it up. I know we’ve only known each other for a short time, but I know. Towa Nee san will never stop.”
“Of course～”
I know that too.
At times like these, Towa will not back down no matter what.
But if I tell her honestly, she’s going to get all sulky.
◇
“You won’t get angry if I talk?”
“Of course not. I may be a little jealous, but I won’t get angry.”
“Got it. I’ll tell you. Briefly”
I remember when I started dating Runa.
I think that was right after I entered this high school.
I had been in love with her for a long time, and I confessed my love to her and she accepted me.
I think we’ve been together ever since then.
Of course, I didn’t neglect Misora, but I think I spent most of my time with Runa.
“It was right after we entered this high school that Runa and I started dating. I confessed my feelings to her and we ended up going out.
“……You didn’t act like that at all when you were with me, but you did that to Horii san. Heh~”
“Wait a minute !? You said you wouldn’t get angry, right???”
“Oh, that’s disappointing. I’m not angry. I just think it’s different when you’re with me.”
It all depends on how you say it.
“So after we started going out, we went to school and went home together, and on holidays we went on dates.”
“Where did you two go on your dates?”
“Just the usual places, you know? We went shopping around the neighborhood, to the amusement park, and the aquarium.”
I think we went to most of the places that normal couples go.
We played together on holidays and spent other times together.
“….I’m starting to get jealous.”
“Now now, calm down, Towa Nee san. First of all, let’s put down that raised fist. Onii hasn’t done anything wrong this time.”
“R-right. I’m sorry. I was a little distracted.”
Saved～nice follow-up, Misora !
I’ll buy you some pudding next time.
“Well, well～Towa Nee san is surprisingly the jealous type. Well, I’ve been seeing glimpses of that for a while now.”
“I guess so. It’s my first time experiencing love myself. Sora is popular with girls no matter what anyone says, so it often makes me feel uneasy.”
“I understand a little. And it’s not good that he doesn’t realize it.”
“I know ! I really do.”
“But I don’t think Onii would ever cheat on you, so I think you can rest assured. He is not that capable.”
I could not listen to her.
That makes me sound like a clumsy person.
Well, I have no intention of cheating on her.
“Is that so?”
“I’m not sure if that’s appropriate to ask, but I don’t think I’ll ever cheat on you. For me, Towa is the most important person, and I can’t imagine being with any other girl besides you. Besides, I don’t wanna betray you or be betrayed anymore.”
“Of course. I’m sorry I doubted you.”
“I don’t mind. If you’re worried, I can show you what’s on my phone next time.”
“That’s fine. I don’t wanna be so obsessive. I just want you to listen to me when I get anxious sometimes.”
“I’ll listen to you as much as you want.”
“Um~ I’m here though??? Please stop showing your natural lovey-dovey ways, okay?”
Misora sighs and stares at me and Towa with a jealous look in her eyes.
I decided to pull my own weight a little.
“Well, if you’re interested, Towa Nee san, the next time Runa Nee gets caught, how about you go on a date with Onii somewhere? Like the aquarium?”
“I like that idea. Is Sora okay with that?”
“Of course. I’m really looking forward to going on a date with Towa.”
I’m so happy to have a date scheduled like this.
The only thing left to do now is to pray that Runa will be caught soon.
