Episode 25

“Sakuragi-san, sorry. I made you wait for quite a while.”

“Nope, absolutely not.”

During this time, the sports festival was also approaching next week.

Since I was told by Kisaragi that he won’t be able to accompany me while returning home because of his girlfriend. I ended up going home with Sakuragi-san instead.

“Yuugao-kun, are you okay with your leg injury?”

“I’m fine. Thank you for your concern.”

Right after I got hurt, Sakuragi-san started worrying about me various times throughout the day.

Even though It’s not that big of an injury.

After a few minutes, I was walking with Sakuragi-san while returning.

Something out of the ordinary happened.

“Ah, konnichiwa. Nii-san.”

“Eh, Ah, Karen”

I ran into Karen.

Concidingly, Sakuragi-san also heard Karen referring to me as Nii-san.

“Eh? Ah, is this the same girl who is famous at our school, Yuugao Karen-chan?”

“Yes, I am Yugao Karen desu.”

…I guess if it’s Sakuragi-san, it should be fine.

“Sakuragi-san, we keep this a secret at school. But actually, we are siblings.”

“Eh, that was really so!? Count me surprised.”

“I–I’m sorry. Nii-san. My mouth slipped up.”

As if realizing that setting just now, Karen apologized to me in a hurry.

“It’s okay. Can you keep it a secret as well, Sakuragi-san? It’d be a little troublesome if everyone in the school was to find out.”

“I understand. Since it’s a request from Yuugao-kun.”

Sakuragi-san happily nodded in agreement.

“Ah, but it’s hard to tell both of you apart because you share the same last name.”

“Ah, then call me by na—……”

“I would be thrilled if you were to call me Karen.”

Right there, she forcibly cut in.

Did she really want Sakuragi-san to call her by name? Probably they have relatively good compatibility between them?

“W–well then, should I call you Karen-chan then?”

“Please do. Sakuragi-san.”

“Karen-chan, maybe I would like it if you were also to call me by my name as well?”

“Then, Kaede-san, let’s get along well.”

The two of them chat with each other with all smiles.

They really seem to get along quite well.

“Both of you seem to get along quite well.”

“Does it appear like that to you?”

“Un. I’m happy that both of you are getting along so nicely.”

“I see”

The two of them have been smiling since that time. However, for some reason, I feel some sort of uneasiness.

I wondered what this gloomy feeling I was having in my chest.

“Nii-san, let’s get going.”

“Yugao-kun, let’s go.”

“Yeap, let’s go.”

Well, it must be my imagination.

Because they seem so close to each other.

I started chasing after the two, who were walking side by side.
