Before I Knew It, Things Had Gone Too Far While I Was Playing Around With My Big Sister - Chapter 13-15

Chapter 13: What Am I Doing?

After a while, I lay on the sofa, and the heat in my face and body finally cooled down.

But when I calmly thought about what happened earlier, my face heated up again.

What am I doing? Sniffing each other’s scents is weird. It’s totally perverted. Sisters don’t normally do that.

“Big sister…” I muttered.

I said it unconsciously.

“Miha, what’s wrong? Already missing me?” she asked.

She smiled happily as she spoke.

“Big sister!? What about dinner?” I asked.

I tried to cover up muttering her name by asking about dinner.

“It’s fine to come here now. So, I’ll ask again, are you already missing me?” she said.

“No, that’s not it. I just said it unconsciously…” I said.

I spoke to her while enduring the embarrassment heating my face.

“You’re thinking about me so much you call my name unconsciously,” she said.

“No, that’s not… I just remembered what happened earlier, and…” I said.

As I spoke, my voice got quieter, and I hid my teary eyes from embarrassment.

“So, you missed me?” she said.

“No, that’s not it! Why do you keep saying off-the-mark things? Just go back to the kitchen!” I said.

Missing her? That makes no sense.

Sure, if I didn’t see her for a week, I’d feel lonely and miss her, but we were just together, and she’s only in the kitchen now.

“Alright, I’ll go back. I’ll make it quick so you don’t get lonely, Miha,” she said.

“I’m not going to get lonely that fast!” I said.

When I said that, she returned to the kitchen.

Maybe I’ll take a bath.

It’ll take a while for her to finish dinner. Unlike yesterday, she probably won’t barge in. Just in case, I’ll tell her I’m taking a bath. I didn’t do anything wrong, but she might say it’s punishment and do something weird again.

I kind of want her to wash my hair, just a little, but today, punishment or not, she’d probably do something weird.

With that thought, I went to the kitchen where she was.

“Big sister,” I said.

“Miha? What’s up? Don’t tell me you really miss me already?” she said.

She looked surprised as she was making something.

“No way! I just came to tell you I’m taking a bath,” I said.

“No way, that’s not allowed,” she said.

“Just for today…” I said.

I added that I’d bathe with her starting tomorrow to convince her.

Taking a bath alone is normal.

“Not okay?” I asked.

“Just for today,” she said.

“Yes!” I said.

I did it! How many years has it been since I bathed alone? Maybe it’s the first time. I don’t have any memory of bathing alone.

“Oh, big sister, about sleeping alone tonight—” I said.

“That’s not okay,” she said.

“Okay,” I said.

I thought the momentum might let me sleep alone too, but as expected, it didn’t work.

Well, bathing alone is a step toward the future, right?

Like when she or I get married and don’t live together anymore. Right now, she seems to like me… but over time, she’ll realize I don’t feel the same, and she’ll give up.

“Miha, it’ll be ready in about 20 minutes,” she said.

“Okay, got it!” I said.

I replied to her and headed to the bathroom.

Chapter 14: Cooking

“Big sister, I’m done,” I said.

I got out of the bath and spoke to my big sister.

It was my first time bathing alone, but it felt more spacious than usual. And my big sister wasn’t there. Well, that’s obvious since I bathed alone.

“It’s just finished now,” she said.

“Okay,” I said.

“Miha? What’s wrong? You seem down,” she said.

“Nothing’s wrong! I’m fine! Anyway, I’ll grab the chopsticks!” I said.

I said that and took our chopsticks to the table.

“Is it delicious, Miha?” she asked.

“It’s delicious,” I said.

“Good,” she said.

She heard my words and smiled happily.

I always say it’s delicious, but she always gets happy when I do.

Doesn’t she ever get used to it? Maybe if I cooked, I’d understand her feelings.

“Hey, big sister,” I said.

“What’s up, Miha?” she asked.

“On the next day off, I want you to teach me how to cook,” I said.

I thought that and told her.

“I know you’re busy, so only when you’re really free!” I said.

“That’s fine, but who are you cooking for?” she asked.

I answered without thinking much.

“For you, big sister,” I said.

Who else would I cook for?

“Hehe, that’s great,” she said.

She heard my words and let out a happy smile.

At first, I didn’t understand why she was so happy, but I soon realized.

Is she expecting me to like her romantically? I need to deny it right away, but… seeing her so happy, I couldn’t say it.

“Thanks for the meal,” I said.

I put my hands together, took the dishes to the kitchen, and sat on the sofa.

She was still eating, so I lay on the sofa.

Of course, when she finishes, we’ll sit next to each other. Not that I want to sit next to her, but she’ll probably sit next to me like always.

Chapter 15: Just a Little Bit…

My big sister finished eating and, as expected, came to the sofa.

I confirmed she was coming, stopped lying down, and sat up on the sofa.

“Thanks, Miha,” she said.

“Yeah,” I said.

She said that and sat next to me, so close our shoulders touched.

“Big sister, it’s hot,” I said.

Last time, we were eating ice cream, so it was fine, but now we’re not, and it’s just hot.

So, I moved away from her a bit, but she closed the distance again.

“Aren’t you hot, big sister?” I asked.

I couldn’t help but ask that.

I was so hot, but she kept closing the distance like it didn’t bother her, so I wondered if she wasn’t hot.

“I’m hot too, but being close to you makes me happier, Miha,” she said.

“That makes no sense!” I said.

If she’s hot, she should move away.

No, I mean, just a tiny bit, really just a tiny bit, being close to her feels nice… No, that’s not it! It’s just hot!

I resisted the urge to accept it and moved away from her again.

But, as expected, she closed the distance, and I ended up pushed to the edge of the sofa.

I could push her to the other side, but if she got hurt, I’d regret it forever, so I didn’t do that.

“Big sister, the bath! Why don’t you take a bath?” I said.

“You’re right. It’ll be my first time bathing alone too, so I’ll feel lonely like you, Miha,” she said.

Oh, right. If it’s my first time bathing alone, it’s her first time too. We always bathed together.

No, wait! First time or not, I didn’t feel lonely!

I was about to tell her that, but she had already left the living room.

Since she went to take a bath, I’ll go to my room. I want to watch TV with her, though.
