A Small Doubt
1
Lately, a certain suspicion has been growing inside me.
While thinking about it, It felt so obvious that I had a lot of doubts about it on the contrary.
I don’t think so.
I don’t want it to be so.
While wishing that deep down in my heart, somewhere in the back of my mind, I still think that it perhaps might be the case nonetheless.
Although I try to dismiss it as a common occurrence, but then again, I feel sad about it after thinking that.

Wha–What did you say?
I almost dropped the fried bean curd from my lunch box.
“Sa—, safe.”
It only fell on my thigh, so it was just barely safe. For it to be a thigh meat as well.
Mahiru took a sip of tea from the packet,
“As I said, I wonder what Mio was going to do. Since I am of the thought that if I am going to study anyway, I will do it at Yuu-nii’s place—-.”
“I’m also coming along.”
“An immediate answer heh.”
Since at home, Misora is always messing with me and I can’t concentrate, I usually go to the library or the school’s study room to study for my tests studies, but the Moon Night Terrace might be a good place to study after all.
Besides, Yuu-nii is there, too.
“Kuhuhuhu.”
“Then, let’s study there from today on.”
But ……
“Un~, but to think about going into Yuu–nii’s room as a mysterious beautiful girl at that. ……”
“Eh? You are calling yourself a beauty?”
“Shut up.”
If I am going to go into Yuu–nii’s room, I want to go in as Haruyama Miya, not anyone else.
A place which is filled with so many memories, I don’t want a girl whose name I don’t know to come up there. Haaah, I might be already on becoming a really troublesome woman right now.
“As I thought, I’m fine.”
“Just why?”
The eyebrows of Mahiru arched into a figure of japanese eight.
In Yuu-nii’s mind, I’m not yet Mio yet. If a girl other than the three of us: me, Mahiru, and Asaka were to casually go up into that room, I might lose my mind.
“…… I wouldn’t like it either if a girl I don’t know came into Yuu–nii’s room at that.”
“That is why, it’s really okay with me.”
Now that I remember when I was a little girl, I was shocked when I saw Yuu–nii playing with girls I didn’t know about.
Looking back on it now, I guess I was already jealous of him from back then.
“If that’s the case, I’ll go along with you too. It’s safe inside <Moon Night Terrace>, till the middle hall right?”
“Eh, is it really okay?”
“Yeah, it’s really okay.”
“Mahiru, I love that part of you.”
I hugged Mahiru tightly. I could sense a warm soft snuggle on my underarms.

After school that day, I visited <Moon Night Terrace> with Mahiru.
The restaurant was fairly crowded and Yuu-nii seemed to be quite busy.
“Yuu~nii, we’re here.”
“Konnichiwa, Yuu-san.”
“Ou~, welcome.”
That was a somewhat indifferent reply.
“What’s up, Yuu–nii? Why do you look a little down.”
“Ah, no, it’s nothing like that though.”
Does he feel tired from being so busy lately? Or is it perhaps a lack of sleep?
“Do you not get enough sleep?”
“Nope, it’s nothing like that. I’m just the same as usual.”
Even if He says that, but he feels a bit dazed and listless. I wonder if he had caught a cold.
We sat down at a table for two. We order drinks and snacks, and take a breather. I got myself a café au lait, and Mahiru got a Cola.
“Phew.”
“A~h, a Cola at the end of the school day is just the best.”
I worked really hard at school all day after all.
—- Wait no, I had come here to study.
I opened up my study materials and started studying for the upcoming test right away.
Although the scope and subjects of the test are smaller than those of the final competency test, I can’t cut corners.
After about an hour or so, the number of customers had lessened out.
“Uh-waah, I’m taking a small break now.”
Mahiru stretches lazily, as if to show off her voluptuous br—-ts. Was that really a coincidence that it was at the same time that Yuu-nii walked by us?
“Yuu-nii, I want to order~.”
Yuu-nii came to our table.
“What happened, you want another fill?”
“Since the customers have also lessened out a bit, join us for a while.”
“I thought you were here for studying though.”
“I’m taking a break~, a break. See~?”
“Can’t be helped.”
“You look a little tired today as well, don’t you, Yuu-san.”
“You don’t look fine at all.”
” …. is that how it appears?”
“Do you have something concerning you?”
When I asked, Yuu–nii furrowed his brows together,
“Something concerning me? Well, it’s more like, I’m Anxious. But still, No, but, umm… …… hmm…”
“Do you have a stomach ache?” said Mahiru.
” … Obviously not.”
I don’t know, but I can feel that he just doesn’t feel well today.
In times like this,
“Yuu-san.”
“Eh? Wai–“
I took hold of Yuu-nii’s right hand,
“The best way to replenish your energy in times of trouble is to hold each other’s hands you know.”
“N–, no, but ……”
His face turned red, as Yuu-nii’s her right hand trembled.
“Since my actual experience says so, there’s no doubt about it. Here~, go on and squeeze my hand back properly as well.”
Even during the karaoke and even at the festival, we held each other’s hands, but still you feel shy and embarrassed about it. Somehow, Yuu-nii has got some really cute points to himself huh~.
The lady behind the counter was snickering at him. Now I see, … it is because there is the uncle and the aunt over there.
Soon, the once awkwardly trembling hand squeezes me back. After a few seconds, the trembling subsides, and the heat fills the space between our skin.
A comfortable kind of warmth.
It feels so great.
“How do you feel?”
“A~h, maybe, it’s a, good feeling ……?”
I felt relieved to see his expression soften down a little.
“By the way, what were you so anxious about in the first place?”
“Eh? That—…”
Yuu-nii looked at me and Mahiru alternately.
“Is it something difficult to tell me?”
“To keep a secret from me is just so sad.”
“No, it’s just …… uh, yeah. Recently I’ve been losing my hair, and then I was wondering if I’m also getting too old as well. Ha~ ha~.”
“You’ll be fine, since you’ve got a big hairy uncle. I’m not sure what to do about it.
“Oji-san’s hair looks fluffy and thick, so it’s all be fine definitely. Besides—-”
Mahiru took Yuu-nii’s left hand.
“I’ll also hold out onto your hand as well.”
“!?”
Th, this OPPAI! Even though you say that you are going to hold his hand, and here you are actually placing his hand on your cle—-age!
Such underhand techniques ……

In the end, there was no study done after all.
