After delivering the prints to the apartment where Konatsu Mio lives, Kosuke went straight home.
After bathing and getting dressed today, he found his younger sister, Aika, lying face down on the sofa in the living room, fiddling with her smartphone.
“You’re back, welcome home.”
“I’m home.”
His younger sister, now in the first year of junior high school, replied without even looking at Kosuke.
He and his younger sister are not particularly close. They felt a subtle distance between them, but they would at least greet each other.
However, when Kosuke was about to go to his room, Aika unusually spoke to him.
“Ah, Onii chan….Mom said she’s coming home late today.”
“I see, thanks for letting me know.”
Kosuke stopped and went to the kitchen and started cooking.
He is usually the one who cooks dinner on days when his mother is away.
By the time he finished cooking dinner, his sister seemed to have returned to her room. Kosuke puts the dinner he made in front of his sister’s room and goes into his own room.
He then realizes that it was almost time for the song he had pre-recorded to be released on a video-sharing website.
On the day of the entrance ceremony, Akane had sent him an illustration for the music video.
[Oh, it’s about to be released. Today, a new song by Kiritani Kou, who also wrote my original song before, is going to be released～.]
When he turned on Asahina Konatsu’s stream, he saw that she was talking about his music on her stream today as well.
She always looks forward to Kosuke posting his songs, and when he have her stream open, this way they can watch it at the same time.
–Ping.
A notification sound of the chat application can be heard.
<Yukinagi Rei> I’m looking forward to your new song.
Yukinagi Rei is a colleague Kosuke met while working as a web author. They published a book at the same time, and they consider each other as their peers.
She seems to recognize Kosuke’s activities as a Vocaloid P, and chats with him before the release of a song like this.
<Kiritani Kou>Thank you !
～♪～！～♪ ～♪～！～♪
He replied back to Rei, and now a call came in.
[Hello~! Is it okay that I just called?]
“It’s okay, it’s gonna be released soon, let’s watch it together.”
The caller was Enoshima Akane, who is in charge of illustrations. She has been in charge of every PV illustration since Kosuke first asked her to illustrate it, so she is now like a partner.
Therefore, when he would release a new song, they would watch it at the same time in this way.
Eventually, the time for the reserved release approaches, and the countdown begins.
5, 4, 3–
#
— 2, 1, 0 !
The countdown ends, and the intro begins to play from the smartphone.
“Wow, the intro is so good, the divine music has already been confirmed♡”
Aika, who is a big fan of Kiritani Kou, not knowing that her brother in the next room was making that divine song, was already at her limit.
