“……Sleepy.”
I checked the time and it was 5:20 in the morning. It seems I woke up at a strange time. No, it would be more correct to say that I was woken up.
I can’t say that it was a refreshing wake-up call.
“Hikari……”
I can see Hikari’s slender arms entwined around her torso. It seems that Hikari is lying on her back, asleep in my arms.
When I was listening, I heard a faint, regular breathing sound, [Zzzzz……zzzz……]
I had promised to sleep with her, but I didn’t expect this to happen.
“……Well, there’s no point in getting angry.”
It’s clear that I woke up because I was hugged by Hikari, but no one can control the way you sleep.
Let’s just accept this with my heart, which is wider than the Pacific Ocean.
I was thinking about it, and I didn’t want to go back to sleep. I thought I’d take this opportunity to make breakfast for my parents, who both have work to do today.
Then they should be able to go to work with time to spare.
Thanks to the long vacation, I can do this. I gently pulled away from Hikari and stepped out of bed to go wash my face while thinking.
“Ng……Onii chan good morning,…….”
“….Shoot. I thought I was being gentle, but I guess she woke up.
“Morning. But it’s about 5:30, so you should still be in bed.
“……Let’s go to bed, Onii chan…….”
“No, I’m going to go make breakfast for Mom and Dad, now that I’m up early.”
“…..Let’s make it together.”
“You don’t have to do that, okay?”
“…..I want to be with you.”
Hikari comes out of the bed while rubbing her sleepy eyes. There was no way I could refuse since I was shown the act of getting out of bed right after waking up, which is said to be difficult for all human beings.
“Okay. Let’s make it together for the first time in a while.”
==================================
“What are you going to cook?”
It was good that the two of us came to the kitchen together, but we hadn’t decided what we were going to cook at all.
I opened the fridge, checked the ingredients, and thought up a plan in my head.
“Let’s see,……I could make egg toast with bread, eggs, mayonnaise, and cheese, and soup with consommé……,and various vegetables.”
It doesn’t sound like much, but it’s still morning, so that’s what I’ll do.
“Okay ! Then I’ll make soup ! And toast for Onii chan !”
Since my parents come home late, they often cook dinner together, so both of them can cook, but I’m not as good or as fast as Hikaru.
Originally, when Hikari was at school, I used to cook because she was on the track team, but now that Hikari is cooking, she and I have successfully reversed our cooking skills.
It’s only fair that she put me in charge of the simple egg toast.
“Okay. Just make sure you don’t hurt yourself.”
“Onii chan, how many years do you think I’ve been cooking !”
“Right. Well, just in case.”
Even though Hikari only recently started cooking in earnest, she seems to have absolute confidence and pride in her cooking, and gets angry when she gets worried about.
I had forgotten about it because I haven’t been cooking with her recently, since my mother cooks for me on long vacations.
I don’t think I’m being unreasonable here, but I’m convinced that it’s part of Hikari’s nature.
“Okay, then, let’s make it!”
I put out the bread and squeeze out the mayonnaise so that it opens up the center.
I really wanted to use bacon, but I can’t help it if I don’t have it.
Crack an egg in the center, put a slice of cheese on top of the mayonnaise and put it in the toaster and set it for 5 minutes.

“………It’s done already.”
……Well, it’s better if it doesn’t take too long, right?
==================================
“Thank you both. It’s really helpful.”
“I really appreciate it”
‘No no, this is just breakfast !”
“Well, I guess it’s only natural that making breakfast is breakfast itself.”
“Geez ! Onii chan, read the air !”
After a while, my parents woke up and were thoroughly pleased, so it was worth the two of us making it together. Hikari was also in a better mood than usual, perhaps because of their appreciation.
“Onii chan.”
“What’s wrong?”
“It was worth cooking !”
Hikari said that with a big smile on her face.
“…..I guess so.”
My little sister is really cute and innocent.
