Shishio didn't expect that he would meet Aki on his way to Sunoharasou. However, this place was too far away from the dorm, and if he didn't call Aki out, he could see that Aki would walk in a different direction from Sunoharasou.
While he wondered why this guy often got lost along the way, which made him like a heroine instead of a protagonist, he couldn't help but glance at the cute girl beside him.
While the girl was the same height as Aki, he could tell that this girl should be older than him.
'Should it be a year older?'
As for how he could tell, it was because of his "Orthopaedics Mastery." While it was mostly used for medicine or treatment, he could tell someone's age from the shape of their bodies and bones.
Many would be surprised by this fact and might ask whether there was a scientific basis for it, but there was no such thing. It was like an instinct, and he could tell the age from a glance.
Besides age, he could also tell how strong someone was from their bodies alone.
He was already like a fighting manga character who could judge someone whether they were strong or not from a glance of his eyes.
It might be too late for him to explain this, but this wasn't too late to get to know Aki's sister, right?
He stopped his car and called Aki out, causing his big sister to glance at him too.
They stared at each other for a moment before he smiled.
Unexpectedly, the girl was dumbfounded. She blushed before hiding behind Aki while peeking at him from time to time.
"......"
"O-Onee-chan, what are you doing?" Aki was speechless by his big sister's action. Still, he had to say his big sister was heavy. While he complained, he didn't realize that his big sister might have a feeling toward a certain someone. However, he couldn't be blamed since his big sister was crazily obsessed with him to the point that he was almost like a psychopath.
His big sister had always treated Aki like an angel. A perfect cute creature that should be protected and doted on. This was how she had always viewed Aki.
She was sure that Aki was the only perfect being in this world!
In other words, Aki is the cutest!
Yet she was wrong.
She made a big mistake.
The world was a big place.
Tokyo was a big city.
When she arrived in this city, she thought that this city was too crowded for her liking and it was quite annoying to see so many people crowded together. It was hard to breathe, and it was hard to walk.
Her short stature also made it harder for her to walk around this city. After all, when one was short, the steps that one needed to take to a certain place distance was more than one who had a tall stature, considering the legs length.
While she had a lot of complaints about this city, she was also quite curious since this was a different place from her hometown in Shizuoka. Naturally, she loved Shizuoka more since she had been living in that city for as long as she could remember, but the excitement from a new environment wasn't bad.
Yet the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
The only redemption of this city was the fact that she was with Aki. They would be living together in this city. In this city, there were only two of them. They would be together, inseparable, forever.
Yet once again, she was wrong.
She might not be able to find an angel, but she saw a fallen angel.
Unlike the angel, who was cute and should be protected, this fallen angel was dangerous, giving temptation to anyone who saw him, telling them to eat the forbidden fruit since its taste was luscious.
When she saw his smile, she could imagine how his lips might ravage her lips, making her stupid and only care about pleasure.
No, she might become an idiot and be cursed by his devilish attractive appearance.
She knew this man was dangerous, yet she couldn't look away.
"Who-Who is this?"
"He is Shishio-nii..." Aki wanted to say that Shishio was the boyfriend of the woman he liked, but he felt uncomfortable saying that. His expression was slightly depressed, and he fell into silence.
Yet his big sister didn't notice that.
"Who is the girl beside you, Aki?" Shishio asked.
"Ah, um, she is my big sister." Aki introduced his big sister. "Her name is Shiina Matsuri."
"I see." Shishio looked at Matsuri and nodded. "Hello, Shina-san. My name is Shishio Oga. You can call me Shishio, like Aki, if you want."
"Ah, yes..." Matsuri was a bit nervous, but she nodded shyly.
"By the way, what are you doing here? Are you two going somewhere?" Shishio asked.
"We-We're going to Sunoharasou..." Aki answered helplessly.
"Sunoharasou? You're going in the opposite direction."
As expected, Aki had gotten lost once again, which made him speechless.
Shishio wondered whether Aki was really the protagonist since this guy was like a heroine. However, while it had been a while, he knew that Aki could trigger his system, so... it was better not to mention this matter anymore.
"....." Aki and Matsuri.
"We're going there too. Let's go together."
Still, he had to say that Aki's big sister was cute.
Aki's genes were good, and he would be mistaken for a girl wherever he went, so naturally, his big sister was a beauty. Her skin was pale white, like snow, and her hair was so long that it reached her knee.
Still, the most noticeable trait of her features was her white hair and green eyes, which were rare.
The hair color in this world is quite unique. Usually, in this country, everyone has black hair.
However, he had a purple color, and this girl had a white color.
However, he didn't intend to do anything to Aki's big sister since he felt this girl was quite dangerous. It felt like he was watching a sexual predator in the girl's clothing. Rui was also right beside him. How could he flirt with others?
Though, if he was alone, it would be different.
Hearing his offer, Aki and Matsuri looked at Shishio's car for a while before they looked at their sweat-soaked clothes for a while before they nodded.
"Please!" 2x
The two entered the car in the backseat together before they realized that there was someone beside Shishio.
"Oh, she is Tachibana Rui."
"Hello." Rui only nodded but didn't intend to talk further. She was exhausted, and she just wanted to sleep. If Shishio didn't stop suddenly, she wouldn't bother to wake up since his driving skill was so comfortable.
"Hello." 2x
'Who?' 2x
Aki and Matsuri thought, but neither Rui nor Shishio wanted to explain their relationship.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes." 2x
"Okay."
Shishio started to drive his car toward Sakurasou while glancing at Matsuri, who kept stealing a glance at him before glancing at Aki, who was oblivious of anything. He shook his head, then asked, "Aki, I have heard that you're going to move. Is that true?"
"Ah..." Aki was stunned by this question. He didn't really want to move, but everything had been decided. This also made him decide to confess to Ayaka today, so they could be together. However, he forgot that Shishio was Ayaka's boyfriend!
When Aki was in Shizuoka, he was still blinded by his feelings, but when he saw Shishio again, he could feel how special he was. When he was in Shishio's presence, he could feel how weak and unmanly he was.
'No! No! No!'
Aki shook his head and tried to force himself to believe he still had a chance.
"Aki?"
"Ah, yes!"
Aki raised his voice, causing Rui, who was sleeping, to open her eyes, then sigh. "Can you talk quietly? I am a bit exhausted."
"You hear her? She's worked hard before, so let's talk quietly," Shishio added.
"Working hard?" Matsuri looked at Rui in doubt since their age should be similar, right? They were students, so why did this girl work hard during summer vacation?
"She is a chef apprentice. It's still summer vacation, so she decided to use most of her time to study."
"Oh!" 2x
Aki and Matsuri were surprised.
Rui only glanced at Shishio for a while before she closed her eyes. She had gotten used to her boyfriend's shamelessness, and there was no way for her to say why she was tired of the two people behind.
"By the way, are you also going to move here, Shina-san?" Shishio wanted to talk with Matsuri.
"Ah, yes, Shishio-kun."
"...."
Shishio glanced at Matsuri and thought this girl was braver than he had thought.
On the other hand, Aki didn't realize anything.
"Is that why Aki decides to move too?"
"Yes." Matsuri nodded. "I am worried about him, so I decided to transfer to Tokyo and let him live with me since he is still a child." Her voice was so gentle and soothing. Strangely, it felt like those words really came from her heart.
"I-I am not a child!" Aki complained.
"You are!"
The two bickered for a while before Shishio stopped them. "Shh! Be quiet!"
"Oh!" 2x
They forgot that Rui was still sleeping.
Shishio checked that Rui didn't wake up, so he continued his conversation. "You have a good big sister, Aki."
"Ah..."
What could Aki say? Good? He felt this was definitely far from something that could describe his big sister. While his big sister was gentle, kind, and good to him, he felt her care toward him was too excessive.
Yet, unlike Aki, who was speechless, Matsuri smiled happily.
"Oh, right. You're going to move to Tokyo, right, Shina-san?"
"Yes. Is there something that I need to watch out for?" After all, Tokyo was different from Shizuoka, so she wondered whether there was something that she needed to watch out for.
"No, there isn't much difference between this city, but I just want to say welcome to Tokyo, Shina-san."
When he said this, he showed a gentle smile, yet he didn't realize that he might awake something that he shouldn't be.
Matsuri stared at his face for a moment, yet if someone saw her, they would notice the strangeness on her face. Her face was reddened, her breathing was haggard, and her eyes seemed like a bottomless abyss in pink color, completely different from her feminine appearance. However, it was only for a moment, and she quickly hid it with a gentle smile on her face.
"Yes, thank you, Shishio-kun~!"
By this point, she was glad to move to Tokyo.
