Chapter 4: My Sister Got Angry Today

Translated by Kamui

Monday. 

The girls gathered next to the class’ window the following day.

 “I just had the best memories of my life!”

 “It was great, Sakino. It was really good!” 

 “Live Shion-kun was amazing~ I might dream about him every day…”

 The girls, who won the bet going to the live surprise concert with the information from Kaminogi, were able to see me safely.

  It’s only been a day, but I’m having tears of joy just by remembering yesterday.

 ― While I, on the other hand.

 “Wow, Kitaro is really moving like a youkai….”

 “I feel sick! I think I’m being possessed by evil spirits….”

 While receiving the harsh words of the girls, my body was shaking while sitting on my desk.

 The reason was yesterday’s surprise concert.

 Held with sudden preparations.

 I express my thanks to everyone who was dragged into the event.

 I’ve already reached the limits of my physical and mental strength.

 But I can’t afford to be absent from school.

 Only for “Today”…!

 “Well then, I’ll be giving everyone a test~” The homeroom teacher distributes the answer sheet in a voice that sounded so unmotivated.

 Yes, today is the Exam Day.

 I couldn’t be absent because I needed to always be 1st place in my grade.

 My main role is just to be a student.

 It’s just that I have to take the test the next day after my side job and music activities.

 My sister stopped me from going to school this morning. She was very desperate.

 “No, Big Brother! You definitely must not go! You’re not sleeping!? You’ll die!”

  “Akane, I don’t know when the boom in my music career will pass! That’s why I need to get good grades!”

  “It’s okay! I don’t need anything else if I have Big Brother! So please!”

  “Currently, we’re fatherless, so I have to get good grades so I won’t have trouble with my work in the future!”

 “Even if you don’t have a job, it’s okay because I’ll feed Big Brother for the rest of my life! So please don’t go!”

 “Let go of me, Akane! I have to go!”

 “Don’t cover your ears and listen to what I’m saying! Waaaah!”

 I, who’s normally calm, said that as she grabbed my hand to stop me. 

 I turned a deaf ear, said my opinion, and left home without looking back.

 If I heard even one word from my beloved sister, I would have stopped.

 Or rather, I think my heart is already broken, and it’s filled with remorse. 

 I have to go to a good university in case of an emergency.

 And I have to get a good job.

 I will protect my family…!

◇◇◇

  “… I’m home~”

 I finished the exam safely and came back from school.

 I was terrified of entering the house. 

 At the entrance, my younger sister, who blushed, sat and waited with an angry look.

 “Welcome back. Here, hurry up and change your clothes then go to bed early.”

  “Oh, ohh….”

 She said it so bluntly and handed over my nightwear.

 I tried guessing my sister’s feelings…

 It was embarrassing to remember the ruckus this morning.

 But I’m still worried about my family.

 — or something like that. 

 Also, she’s probably angry because I went to school after all.

 Here’s a small joke to calm her down.

 “… Akane, do you want to sleep together?”

  “H-Huh!? D-d-don’t be silly! Just go to sleep, you idiot!” Akane’s face turned bright red, and screamed at me loudly.

 And so, I head to my room.

  You didn’t have to hate it so much….

  When I was in junior high school, it was more like she was coming from the other side of a hill. 

  Will my sister, who is always angry at me, like me one day?

  The Siscon road is a steep one.

 I climbed into the bed in my room.

 “It was finally your chance! You idiot!”

 I heard my sister’s voice from the room next door.

 I don’t know what game she’s playing, but she’s not well-behaved enough to shout along with enthusiasm.

 It’s fine for two people to be absorbed in it, when I wake up I’ll ask her if I can join her. 

 I closed my eyes while listening to the rattling noises beside my bed, coming from the room next to mine.
