CH 37

“―Ehe, ehehe.”

Sakura was now sitting in her seat in the classroom looking at the photo album she had taken with her Onii-chan.

This photo is Sakura’s treasure, taken with her Onii-chan.

The picture shows her brother with his eyes properly visible, his clothes and hair styled perfectly, and Sakura dressed as a maid with cat ears.

Sakura knew that my Onii-chan was cool, and I never really cared about his appearance, but I still thought that Sakura’s Onii-chan was also very cool.

Sakura’s Onii-chan was the one that Sakura’s eyes had judged to be a good person.

Just because he is a good person, doesn’t mean he is a kind person right? (EDN: Fate reference kekw)

That person was said to be always thinking about her and scolding her, although Sakura gets scared by it, he was still perceived as a good person by Sakura’s eyes.

But Onii-chan is also a very kind person.

He loves Sakura very much, and Sakura also loves him very much.

He’s also the one who saved Sakura from trouble, twice.

―That’s why I love him so much!

Sakura was so happy when the person who was the Onii-chan of my dreams in the past became my real Onii-chan!

So Sakura tried to stick to him very tightly.

But lately, my Onee-chan has been monopolizing my Onii-chan ever since she came home every time.

It’s true that Sakura takes him from school to home, but since she’s in a different grade and can only spend a little time with him, I don’t think it’s fair that she takes him all the time at home.

But… Sakura still loves my Onee-chan too, so I don’t want to get in her way…

Hmm… What should I do…?

Maybe the three of us can play a game together…

…But, it’s a little too much for Sakura to play that game…

I wonder if Onii-chan noticed…?

Even if you turn the volume down, you don’t have earphones in, so if you listen closely, you can hear them in the hallway…

Sakura hopes that the two of you don’t do anything weird together…

…That said, the cat-eared maid was embarrassing~

Sakura turned her gaze once to the purikura she was holding in her hands and thought so.

But Onii-chan was really happy, so she was glad that she had tried it.

What should I wear for him next time…?

Should I dress up as an anime character next time?

“―Momoi-san, may I have a word?”

As Sakura was thinking about what to wear to make her brother happy, a boy from her classmates spoke to her.

Jiii―… (TLN: gaze / stare)

Sakura looks at the boy’s face.

The boy had a gentle smile on his face.

“Can I talk to you for a―”

―Out…!

When Sakura made that decision, she got up from her seat and ran out.

“Ah― wait a minute! …She got away again…”

As soon as Sakura ran out, she heard a boy’s voice coming from behind her.

Sakura felt sorry for him, but Sakura kept running.

I’ve never told this to my sister, but―I don’t know why Sakura’s eyes have always been able to tell what people are thinking and whether they are good people or not.

Until now―Sakura doesn’t think she’s ever been wrong in that judgment.

And the person who just talked to me clearly had ulterior motives.

That’s why Sakura ran away.

I don’t want people to look at me strangely, and I’m afraid to say anything to them…

“Ah― Momoi’s imouto, it’s dangerous to run quickly you know?”

Then a blonde haired lady appeared in front of Sakura.

“Are you going to Kaito?”

“Yes…”

Sakura nodded at Onee-san’s question and gazed at her face.

…Maybe she’s an okay person…

This Onee-san is always beside my Onii-chan, Saijo-senpai was said to be the richest senpai in the school.

The first time Sakura saw her, Sakura thought she was weird―maybe even broken.

Hatred, regret, joy, bliss, and disgust hidden behind her fondness for my Onii-chan.

All of these emotions seemed to be swirling around inside this Onee-san.

The most intense however, was hatred.

But, it was not directed at my Onii-chan.

―Who in the world was this person pointing at―Sakura didn’t know, but she did know that this person was dangerous.

But I can’t feel that right now.

…Unn, Sakura sees a little bit of hatred and disgust.

However, I thought that everyone has such a thing.

Even Sakura’s beloved Onii-chan sometimes shows these colors.

Even so, Sakura decided that it was okay because my eyes told me that this Onee-san was a good person.

The last time I saw her however, she was clearly a bad person.

Sakura doesn’t know what happened to her, but I’m pretty sure that my Onii-chan was involved.

Onii-chan said, “If you want to be by my side, you can stay.”, was what he told this Onee-san…

Even though Onii-chan’s side is Sakura’s special seat…

But if this person doesn’t do anything to Sakura or her friends, then it’s okay.

If everyone gets along well一It’s when I’m the happiest.

But… I wonder why…?

When my Onii-chan is talking with this Onee-san or Sakura’s Onee-chan, my heart throbs a little…

Onii-chan and the Onee-chans are just talking nicely, so there shouldn’t be anything to worry about…

Sakura wonders if it’s some kind of illness…?

…I’m scared…

But the pain doesn’t bother me at all when Sakura talks to Onii-chan.

Besides, Sakura’s Onii-chan spoils me just by being around him, which makes me feel very happy.

That’s why Sakura is going to see my Onii-chan again today.

―Sakura thought to herself as she and her blonde sister headed for her brother’s place.
