"Yayyy theme park!!" Sunday came like a lion. Kazuya had some free time as it was his day off. Usually, he would have used the time to sleep at home, however due to his grandmother's wish, he filled those precious moments by bringing his little siblings to town instead. A new amusement park was recently built and launched last week. It became a new attractive spot for the residents who live nearby. The two siblings were looking forward to the day when their brother would take them on an excursion and finally their patience paid off.
"Look! A roller coaster!! Can we ride it?!" The little boy brimmed in joy after seeing an enormous roller coaster was dashing so fast on the tortuous track meanwhile his sister was already trembling in fear to the point of her face turned pale.
"Too bad you don't meet their height requirement, Kazuki."
"Aw...". "Yay!" They both had different reaction.
"Don't be so sad, you can try many other safe ride here." Couldn't stand seeing his little bro's disappointment, Kazuya invited them to play the carousel. The ride literally needs a person to sit on the pony and feel it goes up and down. Pretty boring for Kazuki. Despite being only 6 years old, he likes a more thrilling ride than that.
"Oniichan, can I get an icecream?" Kazuki's twin, Kaya was allured to the ice cream stall nearby. She pulled her brother's hand leading him over. Kazuya could feel her cute and small hand grabbing his palm.
"I don't want ice cream yet!" Kazuki shouted. He grabbed Kazuya's jacket avoiding him from following his sister. Currently Kazuya was in the struggle of being pulled to both side that were opposite of each other. He could only let out a heavy sigh.
'These two have always been quarrelling... I'm pretty tired of it already.'
"Kazuya?" A familiar voice suddenly called out to him. He turned around and saw a girl who wore a plain T-shirt and short jeans while her head was covered in a cap.
"Nakano-san?" Kazuya was surprised after seeing Hikari in casual clothes without her hoodie on. "So cute."
"E-Eh? W-what's up with you? Uh... I'm cute??" Hikari Blushed. She pulled down her cap to hide her embarassment though deep inside she felt slightly elated to get such praise twice from him, the first was when they're on the rooftop.
"Yeah probably even cuter than when you're in school."
"Huh wha- duh stop the cap!!" Hikari blushed even harder.
Kazuya had no intention of faking his reaction. He was a bold person. All the words that blurted out from his mouth were his true feeling. Hikari's appearance truly left him astounded. Above all, her chest was what caught his attention the most. He'd been staring at them for quite some times.
"What are you looking at, pervert." Hikari covered her chest with her arms while turning her body a bit in order to prevent Kazuya from staring at them for too long.
"Minamoto-kun?" Miyu suddenly appeared from behind. Seemed like she just got out from the toilet.
"Who are these big sisters, Oniichan?" Kaya asked.
"Don't worry they're my friends."
"Ah! Are they your girlfriends?!" Kazuki jumped into conclusion.
"No, we're only friends."
"Aww I thought I'd get a beautiful big sister.." Kazuki said this specifically for Miyu.
"Hehe, now now who taught you about adult relationship. You're still too young to care for that thing y'know." Miyu smiled and gave him a pat on his head.
"Plus your brother has been owned by the big sis here." Miyu pointed at Hikari.
"No way! How can I go out with this gloomy guy."
"Hey that's kinda hurt."
"Fufu just kidding. By the way you can call me Miyu-neechan."
"I'm Minamoto Kazuki!!"
"Um.. I'm Minamoto Kaya."
"Nice to meet you, Kazuki-chan, Kaya-chan."
The ice cream had been forgotten. After that, they strolled around together. Kazuki liked Miyu so much that he always attached to her during the walk. On the other hand, Kaya was a shy girl. She never let go of her brother's hand.
"Miyu-neechan, let's play the dart games!" The super energetic boy dragged Miyu to the game booth leaving the other three behind.
"Don't go too far away!" Kazuya yelled.
"Um... can I get an ice cream?" Kaya was still prioritizing her main purpose.
"I'm sorry, I almost forgot about that." Kazuya looked around to see if there was an ice cream stall nearby, unfortunately there was none.
"Maybe the ice cream stall is only at the entrance. In that case, we need to turn back but it will take some times to be there since this park is unexpectedly vast. Are you okay with that, Kaya?"
"Uhn." She nodded.
"What about you, Nakano-san? We've been exploring straight without rest. You may sit at the benches if you'd like."
"No problem. I've got huge amount of stamina left or... are you the one who can't keep up?"
"You're underestimating me. I'm not that weak."
They continued their walk to the entrance. By the time they arrived, the stall was crowded with people. Approximately about 7-8 minutes for their turn to come. Nearby benches became a resting centre for them to enjoy the ice cream.
"You're quite a responsible person, aren't you?"
"Why?"
"I mean, you do a part-time and you also bring your little siblings here which I believed the distance is far away from your house. What more you even scored in the test. I thought you're a lazy-ass person. Sorry for my quick assumption.." A feeling of guilty was shown all over Hikari's face.
"...Yea it took me about almost 20 minutes to be here but it was all for the sake of my little siblings. I don't want them to feel isolated. They only have me to rely on."
"What about your parents?"
"..."
"They died two years ago due to a car accident."
"Ah- I'm sorry, I didn't know."
"Nah it's okay. Currently we're living with our grandmother whereas why I'm always late to school. The distance between school and grandma's home is farther than my parent's."
"I see.."
Hikari got to know little by little regarding Kazuya. She didn't expect him to go through all that. Compared when they first met, her impression on him had changed 180 degrees.
"Hmm."
"...."
"Hey your ice cream is melting."
"Eh!" Hikari quickly licked the melted cream on her hands. Later she realized the cream had dripped onto her thigh and dampened her jeans a bit. "Ah!"
'Somehow this led my mind to a certain scene...' Kazuya's mind had travelled too far.
"Here, nee-chan." Kaya offered Hikari some tissues.
"Oh, thank you. You're such a kind girl." Hikari gladly accept the tissues and wiped the cream on her body.
"Of course she is. Look who taught her." Kazuya spoke arrogantly.
Hikari sharply glared at Kazuya indicating how much she was irritated with him the moment he said that. "Heeehh, I do agree that you're a responsible person but you have to correct your way with words sometimes you know..." She tightened up her grip.
"Nee-chan, what is your name?"
Hearing Kaya's voice faded away Hikari's anger. "You may call me Hikari, Kaya-chan."
"Then, Hikari-nee!"
"Aww so cute! I feel like I have a younger sister." Hikari's heart filled with jubilation she couldn't stop grinning.
"Can you drop the grin. It's weird to see you react like that."
"Why are you always irritating me dammit!"
"No swearing in front of a child."
"You're the one who started first!"
**Meanwhile at a certain distance
"Look, big bro is there!"
"My my, they're at it again, hehe." Miyu was delighted that she left them together for a moment.
