“Onii-chan! Onii-Chan!”
“Hah!”
I found myself standing in the middle of nowhere.
In front of me stood a familiar and somehow nostalgic figure.
“What’s wrong, onii-chan? Suddenly you’re all dazed…are you sick…?”
“Eh…you are…”
I looked around.
This is not the celestal sphere.
This is my apartment in Japan.
This is where I used to live with Miku… this is where I used to go home.
And in front of me is my only family.
The most important person in the world.
The person I want the most in the world to be happy.
My sister, Miku.
“If you’re not feeling well, why don’t you take a day off from your part-time job…?I’ll call the sh—”
“Miku! I missed you so much!”
I found myself hugging my sister.
We haven’t seen each other in over ten years.
I let out all the feelings I had for Miku that had been building up.
“Hey onii-chan you’re hurting me!”
“I’m sorry…”
I realized that I had hugged Miku very tightly.
I hurriedly released her.
“What’s wrong with you suddenly?”
Hmm?”
Miku looked at me and her eyes widened.
She slowly traced my cheek with her index finger.
“Why are you crying…? Onii-chan…?”
“What… am I…?”
That’s when I realized for the first time that I was crying.
“What… is this…? Why am I crying…?”
Once I became aware that I was crying, tears flowed one after another, as if a dam had burst.
Even if I tried to stop it, it wouldn’t stop, I embarrassedly turned my face away.
“Onii-chan!”
Then Miku hugged me from behind.
“Mi…ku…?”
I was so embarrassed that I turned away from her.
“It’s going to be okay.”
“yes…?”
“I know you’ve had a hard time, haven’t you? I’m fine. Miku is here… please, talk to me…”
“…”
“Miku will bear all of your pain together with you. Let think about it together, is it Miku’s fault? Is it because of Miku that you’re having a hard time?”
“No…! I’m…!”
“Hey, onii-chan …! Listen to me…! If Miku’s presence is causing you pain… then Miku will leave. Because if onii-chan isn’t happy, Miku isn’t happy either. If Miku leaving makes onii-chan happy, then Miku will leave.”
I involuntarily turned around and hugged Miku back.
“No…! It’s not because of Miku…! I’m not in pain! Please don’t tell me you’re leaving! Being with Miku is what makes me the happiest!”
I speak my true feelings without any pretense.
Then, Miku’s face broke into a smile.
“Really? I’m so glad… Miku doesn’t need anything as long as onii-chan is with Miku!”
“…ah…”
That’s when I finally realized.
I wished for Amaterasu to make Miku happy, and somehow I ended up back here.
It was because…
I myself am Miku’s happiness.
