My Ex-Elder Sister shifted into the room next to mine - v1 Chapter 17: A discussion with Senpai.

A Discussion with Senpai.

*Gacha.

“I’m home. At last.”

*Patapata

“Welcome back, Kousuke-kun.”

Kousuke kept on wondering what to do from the moment Hina left him and went inside. From then, till some time he constantly contemplated on what to do. However, unfortunately, there was no good idea that he could come up with. 

Well, since there was still time until the weekend, so he decided to think about it carefully later and went on his way home.

“? Is something wrong?”

“Nope, nothing’s wrong.”

“Okay, well, then what do you want to do now? Do you want to have dinner first?…”

Ren blushes a little, remembering what happened just the other day.

“Yes, I’ll have dinner.”

“Okay, I’ll heat it up right away. Please wash your hands and gargle by then.”

After saying that, Ren walks to the kitchen.

“Haaaah, how do I even start with this? If I say it in the wrong way, this will definitely make a scene.”

Kousuke thought about putting it off for later, but after looking at Ren. He could not stop thinking about these things that were still bothering him. And with that troubled state of mind, he went to the washbasin.

        …

        .

        .

“Itadakimasu.”

After washing his hands and gargling, the two of them started having dinner together.

But, as Kousuke’s mind was already very much preoccupied with what to do … so much so that he couldn’t have a good conversation with Ren. 

The meal ended with a somewhat awkward atmosphere.

“The food was delicious. So, shall we clean up for today? Ha ha.”

Kousuke started to clean up, feeling guilty that he had created an awkward atmosphere while eating.

Looking at which, Ren, continued,

“Kousuke-kun, after cleaning up, I want to have some words with you.”

“Eh?”

“It, Is, Okay, Right…?”

“Ye, yes.”

Under the pressure of Ren’s power, I had no choice but to shake my head in compliance.

After cleaning up, we went to the living room and sat facing each other on the carpet. Kousuke and Ren looked at each other directly in front of each other, however, getting embarrassed, Kousuke averted his gaze left and right, wandering.

“Kousuke-kun?……… Kousuke-kun, look at me!”

Ren grabbed Kousuke’s face and forced him to look at her eye-to-eye in close proximity.

“Eeh *blushes*! Ren-senpai, um… What is it?”

“……, did you hear what I said?””

“I, I’m sorry, I wasn’t, actually.”

*Jitoo, 

“Haaaah….. Please listen to me carefully.”

“Yes, I’m sorry.”

Ren removes her hand from her face and coughs 

*Gohon

“So then, Kousuke-kun. Do you have something you are worried about ……?”

“Eh?”

“Kousuke-kun. Do you think I would remain unaware of it? Even though you had such a gloomy expression on your face all the time. Is it something that you can’t talk to me about?”

“Th, That’s ……”

“Is it perhaps a talk that has to do something with me as well?”

“!!”

“I knew it. I’m sure you’re thinking that it will cause me trouble or something, Kousuke-kun? Don’t worry, I’ll take it all in. I won’t get angry at you. So trust me.”

Ren looked at Kousuke with gentle eyes.

“……I understand.”

Kousuke was prepared and began to talk. 

Of course, he thought it would be better to hide Hina, and decided to call them: his family.

“Well… you see, my family… They’re wondering if I was living on my own well enough. And, so they’re coming at the end of this weekend.

“I see. So you don’t want them to know about your relationship with me.”

*Boom.

“I’m sorry! But it’s not that I don’t like you, Ren-senpai, or even hate you in particular or even find you a nuisance!”

*fu~fu

“Don’t worry, aren’t you so kind, you thought of it so much, such that I wouldn’t get hurt in any way. But it’s really okay, Kousuke-kun. I understand that you don’t want your family to get worried about me, don’t you. From the family’s point of view, it would definitely look as if a strange woman is entering Kousuke-kun’s room whenever she likes.”

“Ren-senpai, ……… I’m REALLY SORRY.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Well then, I’ll bring back all my personal belongings that are left at Kousuke-kun’s house by this weekend. And moreover, I’m going home for the weekend to my parent’s home.”

“Eh, Th, that?”

I was about to say that I was really sorry about that. But…

“Fufu, that’s absolutely all right. Originally, I was asked to come home once in the meantime. And it so happened to be the right time for that.”

“Is that so?”

“Un, but more than that, I am worried about Kousuke for this weekend. Will you be able to eat properly without me?”

Ren looked at me worriedly.

“It’s alright, I can make my meal by myself.”

I think I will be all right since there were even instant meals to eat in the worst-case scenario. However, he was seen right through by Ren.

“You are not allowed to eat instant food. AND, If you do, there is a long lecture waiting.”

………

“Your answer?”

“…………… yes.”

Kousuke had no choice but to nod.
