My Ex-Elder Sister shifted into the room next to mine - v2 Chapter 8: Other people’s opinion about Kousuke ② Ren’s perspective

Other people’s opinion about Kousuke ② Ren’s perspective

“Fuu~.”

Ren was in Kosuke’s room as usual. After eating dinner and saying goodbye, she went home, got the bed readied, and laid down.

“Ko-kun was so cute today as well.”

She begins to talk in monologue whispers.

“Besides, we were also able to spend our lunch break together today.”

“Haaa~ Ko-kun in his casual clothes is cool, but the Ko-kun in his uniform was a sight to watch, as well.”

“He was so cute in elementary school. But now, he has become such a handsome and cool guy.”

“I’m really glad that you’ve grown up so well. As your Onee-chan, I’m so happy! …… I really should be thankful to you as well, Hina.”

Ren thinks of Hina.

“Hina…… is my best friend. And also Kou-kun’s benefactor. If… she hadn’t been in front of Ko-kun at that time, If… she hadn’t saved Ko-kun… at that time…”

My body shivers as I imagine that worst case scenario.

“I’m really glad, really …… but”

I start remembering what happened at lunch break.

『If that is so, …… Hina-nee!』

*Thud!!

Ren slams her fist on the pillow.

Kou-kun treated Hina as his Elder Sister. Even though his real Elder sister! Is me and only me!

*Thud!!

“Haa! Haaaah… no, calm down, calm down me. I couldn’t be helped, I couldn’t be helped, me.”

I couldn’t be there for him. At that time when Kou-kun was suffering in so much pain. Moreover, the source of all his suffering was… but. ……

I don’t want that ……… No… Just no, no, no, no, no! I should be the one by his side! I am the one who will support Kou-kun, spoil him, and share my love with him!

“So, Ko-kun… please accept me already.”

I … at that time, I realized one thing.

『I will be off then, On–ee.』

……

To the fact that Kou-kun was rejecting me as his Elder Sister in his heart. 

Tear drops fell down her cheeks.

“How can I get Ko-kun to accept me? Even though I worked so hard to have Kou-kun accept me.”

“Just in order to become the Onee-chan you can be proud of. I went on a diet and studied fashion as well, you know.”

Before she and Kosuke separated, Ren was actually pretty chubby and had no interest in fashion at all. But after that separation, she worked hard just to become one of the 12 most beautiful girls in Hoshimi High School.

“Besides, I also became good at cleaning and studying. Above all, I worked hard on my cooking. Didn’t you also say that my cooking was delicious, right?”

I talk to that plushie doll Kousuke standing next to me.

“You know, Ko-kun, I don’t understand. Just what else do I need to do in order to become your Onee-chan once more?”

Ren thinks desperately. But she can’t come up with any good way.

She probably knew in the back of her mind that in the life of Kou-kun, she is reduced to only an obstacle. Just her mere involvement with his life, will cause him to suffer.

I know that, but I still don’t wish to give up. I’m sorry for being such a terrible Elder Sister.

Ren wipes away her tears while making her mind.

I love you Kousuke-kun as your Elder Sister.

That’s why, Hina… To you at least, I refuse to lose!
