When I Comforted My Sickly Stepsister, She Couldn’t Live Without Me - 07 - Class Representative’s Duty

After school.

As I was about to head straight home without any club activities, I noticed Imari receiving papers from our homeroom teacher.

As the class representative, it seems she’s been entrusted with some work… It looks like quite a lot for one person to handle.

I set my bag down on my desk and called out to Imari.

“Something you’ve been asked to do?”

“Yeah. I’ve been asked to put these documents in envelopes to send to the parents.”

“Seriously that Sensei…”

Our homeroom teacher is lazy and always seems to dump work on Imari.

“You should learn to say no, Imari. He just pushes people who are easy to push. A little pushback and he’ll back off.”

“But, I’m the class rep, and since I don’t have much to do usually, I guess I should do this.”

“You’re really diligent, Imari.”

“It’s not like that.”

Despite Imari’s denial, I don’t know anyone more diligent and responsible.

I sit in front of Imari and start folding the documents into thirds and putting them in envelopes silently.

“Man, you’re such a casual guy, Miyoshi-kun.”

“Casual? What do you mean?”

“Well, maybe you’re just pretending to be casual.”

Imari chuckles softly, and we both continue our work.

Our classmates who remained in the classroom gradually leave, and soon it’s just the two of us left.

“Come to think of it, how are things with your little sister lately?”

“How do I put it… Well…”

I carefully choose my words, feeling like if I convey the situation too bluntly, Imari might be put off.

“Well, she’s been warming up to me quite a bit. Sibling relations are going smoothly.”

“Hmm, I see. For you, the siscon Miyoshi-kun, that must be the best development.”

“Imari, seriously…”

“Come on, have you been told ‘Onii-chan, I love you’ yet?”

“She hasn’t said that! Well, I mean, I wouldn’t mind if she did.”

“See? You’re definitely a siscon!”

“…Well, I won’t deny that.”

I want to argue that it’s not unreasonable for me to become a siscon.

After all, due to my family circumstances, I’ve always wanted siblings but couldn’t have them.

When something you’ve longed for but never could obtain suddenly comes into your life, you’ll naturally cherish it immensely.

So, being a siscon isn’t my fault. It’s just human nature.

“But, at this rate, you’ll never get a girlfriend, right?”

“Why’s that?”

“Because you’re living with a cute, affectionate little sister, so you’ll be satisfied with that, won’t you?”

“S-She’s my sister, not my girlfriend!”

“Well, true. You can’t do ‘naughty’ things with your sister, huh?”

“Wh-What… I mean…”

Hearing the word “naughty” from someone as serious as Imari is quite erotic. Also, Imari has my ideal figure…..even today, she has her big b*****s laid on top of the desk.

“Hey, just now you peeked at my b*****s right?”

“I-I di-did not!!”

“Yes you did.”

“Da-Damn it….”

It seems I can’t quite beat Imari after all.

As we continued talking, we finished the task assigned to Imari by the teacher, and after taking it to the staff room with Imari, we finally left the school.

Since our way home was partially the same, we walked side by side.

Suddenly, something about Imari crossed my mind.

“Come to think of it, I still haven’t returned that manga I borrowed from you.”

“Oh, that shoujo manga, right?”

It’s been about a month since I borrowed it for the Yukine Operation and never returned it.

“My bad. When should I return it?”

“Hmm, let’s see… Oh, how about I come to your place right now, Miyoshi-kun?”

“Huh?!”

Imari at my house?!

I swallowed hard, and Imari squinted her eyes.

“I won’t do anything ecchi, you know?”

“I know that!”

Just how much does Imari think of me as a pervert?

Clearing my throat, I responded to Imari’s proposal.

“It’s fine, but I might not be able to let you stay long.”

After all, Yukine is at home, and she might not be comfortable with strangers coming over.

“Yeah, no problem. I’m just returning the manga. Plus, I’m a bit curious about your room.”

“Sure, but… wait, my room isn’t some kind of theme park or anything. It’s just a typical high school boy’s room.”

“Doesn’t matter! Come on, let’s go♪”

“… Sigh, fine then.”

And so, it’s been decided that Imari will come to my house.

Meanwhile, at the Miyoshi household…

A girl stood nervously at the entrance, stealing glances at the clock.

“(…Nii-san should be back soon. What should we do today?)”

More than playing any game, she looks forward to relaxing with her brother, the overwhelmingly beautiful girl who is his step-sister, still sporting a face she hasn’t shown to her brother yet.

“…Ehehe, Nii-san.”

Already, glimpses of the potential this girl holds are visible on her face.

Imari, the well-endowed Class Representative, and her brother headed to the Miyoshi household.

Conflict is―inevitable.
