The faint chirping of birds could be heard.
My consciousness, deeply submerged, gradually surfaced, and I slowly opened my eyes, basking in the brand-new sunlight.
“Mm, already morning?”
Since the alarm hadn’t gone off, it seemed I had woken up early. However, until the alarm rang, I wouldn’t be late even if I slept in, so I decided to roll over and go back to sleep.
Just as I reached out, there was something there, so I thought it was my body pillow and pulled it closer.
“(It’s so soft… and it smells nice. Did I have such a comforting body pillow to make me feel this happy just by holding it?)”
My consciousness was fuzzy, and I didn’t want to open my eyes, so I just hugged it tightly.
“Mm, ngh…Nii-shan… Sto… op…”
“Mm… Feels good… Mmm…”
“Nii-san…you perv…”
“…………”
“…………”
……………..
“(…Huh? Did I… have a body pillow?)”
Blinking slowly, three times.
Looking at what I was hugging, another three times.
“What the…?! Y-Yukine?! Why are you here?!”
Quickly distanced myself from Yukine.
“Mm, ngh… Huh? Nii-san… morning.”
“Don’t ‘morning’ me! Why are you in my bed, Yukine?!”
“But didn’t you just hug me now?”
“That’s for later! Answer my question first!”
“You’re so impatient, Nii-san.”
Yukine scratched her head as she sat up.
“Why? I just snuggled into Nii-san’s bed, that’s all.”
“Just ‘snuggled in’? There’s no way it’s that simple!!”
“But isn’t it fine? It’s a double bed, after all.”
“It’s not about the size! We’re siblings! And teenagers at that!”
“…So, Nii-san doesn’t want to sleep with me?”
Yukine’s eyes welled up as she spoke.
Caught off guard by her emotional appeal, I found it hard to argue back. (Tl/n: this guy’s so gullible)
“It’s not like that, but… You can’t just sneak in without saying anything.”
“Ehh…”
“No ‘Ehh’!”
“…Fine. I’ll tell you beforehand from now on♪”
“That’s not the issue here…”
As I frowned, Yukine spread her arms wide and hugged my back tightly.
“Stop lecturing me and let’s cuddle, Nii-san~!”
“W-Wait, stop it! Not so early in the morning!”
“Even though you say stop, Nii-san who doesn’t forcibly push me away is so kind. I love you.”
“Ugh! You…!”
It seems like Yukine was cleverly taking advantage of the fact that I’m her older brother.
She’s incredibly cunning.
“Hehehe, I love you, Nii-san~♡”
“Ugh…”
While groaning in agony, I couldn’t help but feel somewhat pleased to be loved by my adorable little sister this morning.
Lunch break.
Today, unusually, I was having lunch in the courtyard with Imari.
We sat on a bench big enough for two, basking in the approaching summer sunlight.
“Um, how do you think I should go about distancing myself from my sister?”
“Huh, are you trying to break out of being a siscon?”
“No, it’s not like that… more like trying to make her less , if anything?”
“I see, got it.”
Imari seemed to understand my few words properly.
“It seems like your sister is being quite assertive.”
“Well, yeah.”
Imari was there at the time, so he’s the only one who fully understands the situation between me and Yukine.
Because of that, I ended up wanting to discuss Yukine with Imari, so I continued.
“Actually, this morning, when I woke up, she was in the same bed.”
Imari dropped his chopsticks in surprise.
“W-What…? So, Miyoshi-kun isn’t a virgin…?”
“Don’t say it like that! And no, it’s not like that.”
“I see. Well, that’s a relief.”
“Yeah.”
Considering that intense atmosphere Yukine gave off, it’s not unreasonable to think that something might have happened.
“But, you know, Yukine seems to have completely figured out my weakness… Well, it’s a weakness for guys in general, but she comes at me with pretty sexual advances…”
“That’s no good. You can’t waver. Understand?”
“Yeah, I get it! I want to remain Yukine’s big brother.”
“That’s right. You’re the kind of person Miyoshi-kun is, after all. Yeah, that’s reassuring.”
“If you say so.”
If Imari says it, then I feel like everything will be okay.
“But, if Miyoshi-kun ever finds himself unable to resist, tell me then?”
“Huh? Why?”
Imari said it without a hint of joking, but straight to the point.
“Because then, I’ll be there for Miyoshi-kun.”
“Huh, what? What are you saying, Imari-san?”
“I-I mean! Otherwise, Miyoshi-kun might not be your big brother anymore, right? So, I’ll calm you down…”
“Hey, Imari! You’re going off the rails!”
“M-Maybe! W-What am I saying! Haha…”
Imari flapped his hands against his face, turning red, while I, similarly sweating, looked up at the sky.
“Man, it’s hot today.”
“Yeah, it is! It’s almost summer, after all.”
“Yeah, you’re right…”
“…”
“…”
Blaming the heat for the warmth on our faces, we were just two youths in the midst of their youth.
