(A/N Notes: So... Are we going to get 2nd American Civil War for the opening event of 2021?)
"She's my sister, as you can see Yuriko-san"
"Yeah, I noticed that, Takeru-kun"
"So... Would you mind telling me what brings you here?"
"Huh?... Ah! S, sure... W, well... I, Aki and Ayano are planning to go to the beach, but... ... ... I need a new swimsuit since I grew more..." *Blushing*
"I see..." *Looking away*
Yuriko found it really embarrassing what she said, but she couldn't help but be honest about it, while Takeru only looked to the side to not get flustered
"I don't know what's happening between you two, but... Can't you let go of my face already, Ta-chan? Your grip is starting to hurt"
"Ah! I forgot you"
"How cold!"
Akari who was more worried about the pain she was starting to feel on her face, asked for Takeru to let go of her face, that he did as he hurt her feelings in exchange
"Oooowww... I hope there isn't any mark left... Ah! That's right! You still haven't introduced yourself to me!"
"That is true... I'm Nanami Yuriko, Takeru's friend and it's my pleasure to meet a beauty like you, ms. Akari"
"A, ah... Y, yeah... I, it's my pleasure to meet, Yuriko-san..." *Flustered*
Even Takeru's sister wasn't spared of Yuriko's princely charm, but different from other girls
"Ah! That's right! How's a beauty like you, friends with this plain and boring guy that's my brother!?"
"Do you want to go to your photo session with a hand mark on your face?"
Akari ignored Takeru's comment on what she just said about him, as she forcefully tried to make Yuriko answer her
"Aaaaahh... A, about that... It just happened by chance and... T, Takeru is actually p, pretty interesting to have as a friend..." *Flustered*
Yuriko got pretty flustered as she tried to answer Akari and she who already had a lot of love experience easily noticed that Yuriko likes Takeru romantically
"I see, I see... *Grabs Yuriko's shoulders* Please give up on my brother, you definitely have better options out there"
"Huh?"
"Alright, time to give you a lesson" *Grabs Akari from the collar*
Takeru began to drag Akari to a more empty place so that he could give her an iron grip at full force on her face
"I'm sorry! I'm sorryyyyyy! So please not my face! Not my breadwinner!!!" *Aqua's crying face*
"Tch!" *Let's go of Akari"
"Ow!" *Hit her head on the floor*
And while that happened inside the store, Aki and Ayano were very confused at the course of the events that happened inside the swim shop
"... Sooooo, what happened in there?"
"Dunno, should we go inside?"
"Yeah, I think we should"
And they both entered the shop and went to ask Yuriko
"Hey, Yu-chan. What just happened in here?"
"Huh? Ah! Well, basically Akari-san is Takeru-kun's older sister, and she ended up irritating him unconsciously, Aki"
"Eh? Takeru-kun and the actress Akari are siblings?"
"It appears to be so"
The three looked at Takeru who was looking angrily at Akari who was sitting straight, then he sighed and turned back to Yuriko
"Ah! Hello, Aki-san, Ayano-san"
"Yeah, hello Takeru-kun"
"Good to see you, Takeru-kun"
"I heard from Yuriko-san that you three came to see for a swimsuit for her... So I'll go somewhere else and take this idiot *Points at Akari* with me"
He then turned and once again grabbed Akari by the collar, but this time was to make her stand up. And while he was busy dealing with his sister, Ayano and Aki had an idea
"Nee, Takeru-kun"
"Hm? What is it, Ayano-san?"
"How about you choose a swimsuit for Yu-chan?"
" "... ... ... Eh!?" "
When both Yuriko and Takeru heard Ayano suggesting that, they both went silent and got flustered
"If I was you I wouldn't let pass the chance of picking the swimsuit for the girl I like, Takeru-kun"
And Aki swiftly made a follow-up, to only make it harder for Takeru to refuse
"... Well..."
"This might be your only chance of doing that, you know right?"
"..."
And Ayano finalized the trap, by making as if it was a once in a lifetime opportunity
"... Well... If Yuriko-san doesn't mind..."
" "*Turns head to Yuriko* So Yu-chan?" "
"Eh!? Ah! Hmmm... Ermmm... I, I don't r, really see a, a p, problem..." *Blushing*
"I see... Then... I'll go pick one..."
And With Yuriko's flustered agreement, Takeru went to choose a swimsuit, and after a few minutes, he came with some and handed them to Yuriko. Ayano and Aki looked in anticipation for what his taste was, and when they saw that he only picked sport swimsuits, they got taken by surprise
< <...> >
<... This... I really wasn't expecting this>
And with that set, Ayano decided to ask Takeru while Yuriko went to prove the swimsuit
"So Takeru-kun, why a sport swimsuit?"
"Huh? Well... Because it appears to fit really well with Yuriko-san" *Scratching cheek with a troubled look*
"Yeah, that's true, Yu-chan would look really good in a sport swimsuit"
"Yeah... But this is not the only reason, right?"
"!" *Twitch*
<
"So, what's the true reason for it, Takeru-kun?"
"I don't want to say it"
"Aw C'mon, Yu-chan isn't here, so there isn't any reason for you to not say it"
"I don't want to"
"C'mon just tell us"
"Yeah, tell us Takeru-kun"
And the two kept annoying Takeru to tell them his true reason, and luckily for them, they managed to annoy him enough to tell them
"Argh! Fine! I'll tell you two!!!"
"Hm? So what do you guys think?"
And Yuriko came out right when he was about to say
"I picked the sport swimsuit because I don't want to have Yuriko-san exposing most of her skin to other guys at the beach!!! Am I being jealous, yes I am! but I still don't want to have other guys looking at the exposed body of the girl I like!!! Are you two happy now!?" (A/N Notes: I did my best here to make as embarrassing as possible for him and for everyone else)
" " "*Heavily blushing*..." " "
Aki and Ayano who weren't expecting him to say all that was taken by complete surprise that they couldn't help but feel embarrassed. And Yuriko who heard was the one who took the most damage, as her whole face and ears were beet red as she felt extremely embarrassed, so embarrassed that she felt like dying. Takeru had his cheeks blushing somewhat, but when he turned to leave the shop with his sister, he saw that Yuriko was there, and he saw that she blushing really hard
"... ... ... *Intensely blushes*"
And he was quick to get that she heard what he said moments ago, making his face turn red, then he covered his mouth with one of his arms as he looked away, then he picked his sister by the collar and left the store in a hurry as he still covered his face
"..."
Yuriko then fell to her knees, as she covered her mouth and nose with both hands while looking down. Aki and Ayano who managed to recover then saw something red falling to the ground right in front of Yuriko's knees, and they both understood that it was blood
"!? Yu-chan are you okay!?"
"What's wrong Yu-chan!?"
Yuriko was having a nosebleed because when she saw Takeru blushing like that and trying to hide it, she couldn't help but find it really cute, making even more blood run to her head, that was already filled to the brim, and it ended up going out from her nose
Various minutes later
It took quite some time for Yuriko to calm herself down, and right now she was sitting down inside the changing room with a handkerchief on her nose
*Removes the handkerchief* "The bleeding stopped... Gosh, I never want to pass by a situation like this again... But... I could see a very rare sight of Takeru-kun... I better just hurry up, and pay for the swimsuit already"
From the swimsuits that Takeru chose for her, she chose the one that was black and white with stripes of blue. Then she got up, ready to pay and leave, but when she picked the other swimsuits to return, she dropped one
"Ah!... Huh?"
And she saw that it was a purple two-piece swimsuit, she then put the other swimsuits down and picked it up
"... I see..."
And again she began blushing as she found his way of doing this really cute, then she decided to prove the swimsuit before she left the changing room
A minutes later
"... You have been looking awfully happy, Yu-chan"
"Yeah, especially after all that worry you made us pass"
"Ehe! Is that so?"
Yuriko was carrying her shopping bags of the stores they passed, and one of them was the swim shop they had left a few minutes ago, and inside it, there were two swimsuits
(A/N Notes: Because if we get one it's better to be just like the one in Kaiserreich)
