Chapter 13: A Normal Dinner… Not Quite!?

“Yes?”

When Umi responded, the door opened, and mom appeared.

“It’s about time for dinner, don’t you think? Shigure-chan, you’ll be joining us too, right?”

“Thank you! I’d love to!”

“Oh, it’s fine, it’s fine! After all, you’re the future wife of my son!”

“Yes ♡”

“Well then, come on down.”

The door closed, and the footsteps faded away.

“So, shall we call it a day for now?”

“Let’s play again, Yuki?”

“Ah, yes, let’s do it again sometime.”

“Why are you using formal language? You’re so weird, Yuki.”

Shigure and Umi laughed as they started to leave the room, and I hurriedly followed… while still hiding my tent with both hands…

As we got closer to the living room, a delicious smell started to tickle my stomach.

This smell… Hamburger steak!

“Alright, everyone, take a seat!”

Prompted by Mom, we each took our seats.

Along with the hamburger steak, there was salad and soup too, making it a perfect meal!

“Thanks for the meal!”

Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I’ve eaten food made by someone else besides at a restaurant…

First, I take a bite of the hamburger steak.

It’s delicious! The juicy hamburger steak is amazing!

As I was happily eating my meal, I felt three pairs of eyes on me.

“W-what’s up?”

“We were just watching because you looked like you were enjoying your food.”

“Yes, don’t mind us.”

“Yeah, we’re just watching.”

“Being watched is embarrassing though…”

“Is it good, Yuki?”

“Yeah, it’s really good, Mom.”

“Oh, I’m glad!”

Since there’s no point in worrying about it, I decided to continue eating, but then I was interrupted.

“Come on, Onii-chan, let’s do the usual thing.”

“What’s with the suddenness?”

Saying that, she brought a bite-sized piece of hamburger steak towards me.

“Here, big brother, say ahh.”

“Eh!?”

“There’s a rule in the Oyodo family that when eating, everyone feeds and gets fed by Onii-chan.”

“What kind of rule is that!?”

“Just do it, here, say ahh?”

“Ah, ahh.”

I ate the hamburger steak that was offered.

“Is it good?”

“Yeah, it’s good.”

“Now it’s your turn, Onii-chan! Come on, come on!”

I still had doubts about whether we really did this before, but if they did it for me, it’s only polite to reciprocate the gesture.

I cut a piece of my hamburger steak and offered it to Umi.

“Ah, ahh?”

“Ahh♪”

She took the hamburger steak from me and responded with a big smile.

“It tastes even better than usual, big brother♪”

“Is that so? I’m glad.”

“Yuki! Me too!”

Naturally, Mom and Shigure followed suit. Not doing it wasn’t an option, so I fed them the same way I fed Umi.

The three of them continued eating with big smiles.

“By the way, does school start tomorrow?”

“Yes. Although, Yuki, you don’t have to go to school tomorrow, just work on the assignments given to you in your room.”

“Got it.”

“I’ll come over to play again after school, okay?”

“Yeah, I’ll look forward to it.”

“Mom’s going to be late tomorrow, so you can have dinner as usual without waiting for me.”

“Okay! I’ll eat with Onii-chan. Onii-chan, what do you want for dinner tomorrow?”

“Huh? Is Umi making dinner?”

“Yes?”

“Well, can I cook tomorrow?”

“What!?”

“No way, I’ll be at home all day anyway, and Umi, you’ll be at school, right? It would be tough to come back from school and still make dinner.”

“Onii-chan, can you cook?”

“Well, maybe not as good as this hamburger steak, but I can cook normally.”

I lived alone during my university days, so I can manage normal cooking.

“What are you planning to make?”

“Well, I’ll check what’s in the fridge and decide. I’ll look in the fridge later.”

“Let me know if anything’s missing. I’ll buy it on my way home.”

“Got it. By the way, where’s my cell phone?”

“It should be in your room, I think?”

“Hmm, I’ll look for it later.”

We continued eating while having such conversations.

“Thank you for the meal!”

“You’re welcome.”

I stood up and took the dishes to the sink.

“Just leave them in the sink. I’ll wash them later.”

“Got it. Thanks.”

After placing the dishes in the sink, Umi hurriedly came over with her dishes.

“Onii-chan, what are you going to do now?”

“I thought I’d go check out my room.”

“Can I come with you?”

“Can I come too?”

Shigure arrived a bit later with her dishes.

“Yeah, sure.”

Then, the three of us headed upstairs and stood in front of Yuki’s room door.

“Wait a second, Onii-chan.”

Saying that, Umi went back to her room, grabbed something, and quickly returned.

“Here, Onii-chan.”

“A room spray? Why?”

“Big brother rarely went outside, and he didn’t take baths often either, so he smelled a bit… So the room might too.”

“Come to think of it, Yuki rarely went outside. What did he do for lunch?”

“He ate store-bought bread and instant noodles, but I’ve never collected trash from his room. What did he do with it?”

Suddenly, I felt scared to enter my room.

“Is my room a mess…?”

“I’ve never been in your room, so I wouldn’t know…”

“I went in when I was little, but I don’t know how it is now…”

“…”

“Well, standing here won’t solve anything.”

I reached for the doorknob.

I don’t have spiritual sensitivity, but I felt a heavy air. Not because the room might be messy, but because I sensed an image of rejecting others through the doorknob.

While I was frozen, hand on the doorknob, I felt warmth from both sides.

“Onii-chan”

“Yuki?”

Both of them were looking at me while hugging my arms.

Well, with them here, it should be fine.

Thinking that, I opened the door.
