I was asleep in my futon, and the first thing I said when I woke up was that question.
âGood morning, Onii-sama.â
Rin replied to my question with a cute smile and a cheerful voice.
So I asked her again.
âNo, what are you doing?â
âIâm nursing.â
Rin replies in a pleasant voice.
âI see⌠so this is nursingâŚâ
âYes, Iâm nursing.â
ââŚâŚâ
The two of us stare at each other in silence as Rin answers my question by saying she is nursing.
Then I held my head.
âYou⌠where have you found someone sleeping with the person theyâre nursingâŚ?â
The reason why I said such a question when I woke up was because Rin was sleeping with me on the futon, arms attached to me.
It was such a surprise that my mind went blank for a moment.
âI thought it was Onii-samaâs dream to have a beautiful girl sleep with him.â
Rin said to me with the same smile as ever.
No, certainly itâs true that I would like to have a beautiful girl sleep with me, and Rin is undoubtedly a beautiful girlâ but where have you heard such a person say they are a beautiful girl?
âŚNo, come to think of it, I remember a girl who would say that quite a bitâŚ
But I didnât want Rin to be that kind of personâŚ
âOr rather, what happened to Sakihime and Sakura-chan?â
Iâve been looking at those two lately, and Sakihime doesnât seem to allow Rin to sleep with me, and Sakura-chan seems to be worried about me and staying by my side, but I canât see them.
I was shocked to see that Sakura-chan wasnât there, let alone Sakihime.
I wondered if they were worried about me.
No, Iâm not going to say that I want them to worry about me or anything creepy like thatâŚ
âI donât know about the one who poisoned Onii-sama, but Sakura-san is changing her clothes right now.â
ââŚChanging her clothes?â
The person who poisoned me, huhâŚ
W-Well⌠it did have the effect of making you suddenly unconscious, but the poison was pitiful.
âŚThe color was also purple, like poison, butâŚ!
âŚHuh?
Just now, did she call Sakura-chan âSakura-sanâ?
Iâm pretty sure she called her âlittle girlâ when I was awake beforeâŚ?
When did they become friends?
âI thought it was about time for Onii-sama to wake up, so I asked Sakura-san to go change into the clothes I had prepared for her. In the meantime, I slept with Onii-sama and waited for you to wake up.â
ââŚYou really knew I was going to wake upâŚ?â
âOf course! A little sister knows everything there is to know about Onii-sama! Itâs a given!â
âNo, donât of course me, Iâm afraid that you might be right! And youâre not my little sister, youâre my cousin!â
This girl has always been like this. Sheâs got some kind of psychic powers, doesnât she!?
I didnât have to tell her the name of the girl I was playing with, she knew who I was playing with, she knew my hobbies, and she even knew I was playing eroge even though I never told her about it!
âŚEven if sheâs just randomly saying when Iâm going to wake up, the fact that he knows about eroge and stuff means sheâs not snooping on me, right?
Well, Rin entered my house a few years ago, so I donât think itâs anything to do with batteries or anythingâ but with this person, you never know what sheâs going to do, so itâs not inconceivable that itâs without my knowledge.
When I get home, Iâm definitely going to check my roomâŚ
ââR-Rin-chaaaan⌠No matter what, this is just not possibleâŚâ
While Rin and I were talking, Sakura-chan sounded like she was about to cry.
Whatâs wrong with her?
âDonât worry, Sakura-san! Iâm sure theyâll look great on you!â
âI-Iâm not happy⌠to be told I look good in thisâŚâ
The one who appeared with such a tearful voice was Sakura-chanâ dressed as a kindergartnerâŚ!
ââ!â
When I saw Sakura-chan, I froze, unable to speak.
Sakura-chan is currently dressed with a kindergartner uniform, and her eyes are teary with embarrassment.
And even though she looks great dressed as a kindergartner, because of her small stature and young face, her large, and unbalanced breasts make me feel immoral.
Rin you bastard⌠What a great job you just didâŚ!
âOh, youâre really awake, Onii-chanâ but donât look!â
Sakura-chan shouted and hid behind the sliding door fusuma, looking embarrassed.
Then she glanced at us, peeking out from behind the sliding door.
Iâm not sure what to do⌠Sheâs always been as cute as an angel, but now Sakura-chan is several times cuterâŚ!
âHow is it, Onii-sama!? Wasnât my assessment perfect!?â
Rin, who is standing next to me, looks at me as if to say, âPraise me.â
âWell done Rin! As expected of my cousin!â
I was so excited that I praised Rin loudly.
[EDN: UUUUOOOOHHHH SEEGGGGS!!!]
Sakura-chan was watching the exchange between us with a shy look on her face.
âSakura⌠is not this youngâŚ!â
No, she seemed to be sulking a bit, and instead of her usual smiling face, her cheeks were puffed up like a balloon.
However, her appearance is not scary at all, and she looks even more adorable because sheâs so young.
âSakura-san, itâs a great talent to look good in that costume!â
âIâm not happy at allâŚ!â
Sakura-chanâs eyes tear up even more as Rin looks at Sakura with sparkles in her eyes.
Oh no, Sakura-chan is too precious and Iâm going to lose my mindâŚ
But there was one thing that bothered me.
âHey Rin, when did you become so close to Sakura-chan that you even lent her your cosplay outfit?â
When I asked Rin that, she looked me straight in the eye and opened her mouth.
âIt seems that Onii-sama has misunderstood something.â
âMisunderstanding?â
âYes. Onii-sama probably thinks I hate all the women around him, right?â
ââŚArenât you? Because you used to drive away all the girls I play with behind my back.â
âThat was because they were all lousy people who came by Onii-samaâs looks. I canât let those people get close to Onii-sama, the supreme being, and defile him! Thatâs why I was chasing them away!â
Rin explained to me forcefully.
I stared at Rin for a moment and thenâ
âSo, whatâs your real intention?â
âIs what I asked her.
âAny woman who comes near Onii-sama will go to hell!â
Iâd like to ask what the hell she was talking about earlier, but Rin simply flipped her hand.
Yeah, thatâs rightâŚ
This is the kind of person she isâŚ
âBut is Sakura-chan good?â
When I heard Rinâs true feelings, I returned to my original question.
Rin looked at Sakura-chan, who was still hiding behind the sliding door and glancing at us, and mumbled in a low voice so that only I could hear.
âThat womanâsheâs mysterious. Even though she is supposed to be a hindrance to Onii-sama. In fact, she even seems to like me.â
Rin replied, tilting her head.
A-As expected of Sakura-chanâŚ
My angel is even liked by this yandere cousin who only sees other than me as an insectâŚ
âWell, just looking at Sakura-chan is soothing and sheâs a cute girlâŚâ
When I told Rin what I thought about Sakura-chan, she shook her head.
âNo, that may be part of itâ but I think sheâs more like Onii-sama.â
âSimilar to me? You mean Sakura-chan?â
âYes.â
ââŚNo, sheâs the exact opposite, isnât she?â
First of all, I donât have to tell you how I look, but I donât have the same personality either.
I can only study math, while Sakura-chan can study so well that she ranks third in her grade at our school.
In addition, I am good at sports, but Sakura-chan is probably not good at sportsâŚ
Ah, no, Iâve heard that she can run away very fast, so maybe sheâs actually good at it?
Even Sakihime has the ability to exercise.
But⌠thereâs nothing else that comes to mind when I say theyâre similar, right?
âIâm not saying sheâs a supreme being like Onii-sama, but she sees things differently than we doâ thatâs how I feel about her.â
ââŚâŚâ
I couldnât help but fall silent at Rinâs words.
âWell, itâs just my womanâs intuition, but when I talked to her while Onii-sama was sleeping, I thought she might be reading my thoughts.â
âI seeâŚâ
I nodded curiously at Rinâs wordsâ but in my mind,
âRinâ youâre too much of a chuunibyouâŚâ, is what I thoughtâ. [TLN: Please donât tell me I have to explain what âchuunibyouâ means. I swear you wouldnât be reading this far into this series if you donât know this xD]
