Yawn
Ah… turns out a good sleep is all I need.
"Sister… Can't… Breath…"
"Eh?"
I quickly released my body pill— I mean little Zarya from my embrace.
"Bosom of doom… Grip of death… Never sleep with my sister again…"
"Oh come on! Don't be like that! It was an accident, promise!"
"Hmph"
Awwww she even looks cute when she's pouting!

"Ugh, Councilor Sigma is right when she said that I'm unorganized… But I don't think it's that bad!"
I complained to no one in particular as yesterday I almost pulled an all-nighter trying to get a manuscript. Dad only gives me 8 months to try to pursue my dream….
"Sister, Zarya thinks that Sister should get more organized."
"Whatever do you mean?"
She picks up a few papers from the floor and neatly arranges them on to my study table. Thanks little sis! Love you!
"Oh, and sister, instead of staring at Zarya tidying up Sister's mess, Zarya thinks sister should be taking a bath and getting ready for school."
"Yea– WAIT THERE'S SCHOOL TODAY?"
nod nod
Zarya cutely nods her head, a shame I didn't see it as I rushed towards the bathroom to get ready ASAP!

"Woah, that's quite a sandwich you got there! I didn't know you could cook!"
On my way to school, I rushed as fast as my legs would take me, and I met Hilfrigr Thorson along the way. She has blond wavy hair, an enviable sized chest and figure in general, cute round green eyes. But don't let the looks fool you, as she can send a tractor flying at lightspeed before you can say 'haleluya'.
"Ah Hil!"
"How's your father? It's good that we found him yesterday, amidst all the rubble."
"You said it Hil, it was good that we found him on time…."
"Ummm did I say something wrong? You looked down all of a sudden."
"No… it's nothing."
"Hmmm… if you say so… but if there's something wrong, I'm always ready to listen."
"Yeah, thanks Hil! I know you'll get it!"
Hil has always been the caring type, her gentle and motherly aura can be felt by everyone. But under that lovely demeanor lies an insatiable bloodlust for battle.
"Are you thinking about me again?"
"Ah! What give it away…"
"The strange look you're giving me!"
"Mou… I should keep my looks in check shouldn't I?"
"Hehehe you can always try a darker shade of eyeliner—"
"Oh, did you find something good?"
And that's how my day started. A little sister at home and a friend on the way to school….
—
"I'm sorry about yesterday!"
… now a certain idiot hotheaded teenager is in front of me, I wanted to smack him so badly… doing this in front of a crowd.
"Hey what do you think Edward is apologizing for!"
"Don't tell me even edward is shot down, Damn Kelly sure have a high standard."
chatter chatter
"Tch."
"I said I'll forget what happened yesterday, so get your act together, Don't you have a club to attend to right now?"
"Oh really? Wait, now that you mention it, the soccer club has it rough and wants me to help them practice, I'm off then!"
… this Dense M**** F***, I'm even manlier than you you F**** P****, where did all those brain cells go you piece of—-
boing boing
Suddenly my head is engulfed in bountiful mountains of softness.
"There there… He's a dense man, we all know…"
WHAT DO YOU KNOW! YOU'RE DENSE! YOUR WHOLE FAMILY IS —-
CHOKING! I'M CHOKING!!!!----
GASPPPP
Exhale
Sigh
"There, feel better yet?"
"Thanks HIl… although next time you can try not to choke me out."
"Fu fu fu… I'll try but I have no promises."
"One of these days I'm sure my eventual downfall is not KIA, but it's friendly fire."
"Don't be like that Kel !"
"Ugh…"
"So… how did the little Zarya sleep last night?"
"Ah! She's the cutest! My sister is the cutest!"
"Hehehe, I would love to meet her someday."
"SURE! Are you free today?"
"... sadly no… I'm not the daughter of a conglomerate nor am I someone free enough to do whatever I want after school."
"..."
"But… I can come for a sleepover after I'm done with helping my mom."
"Oh! How's aunt Sif been? I heard that she's been trying to cultivate some tea leaves! My dad's a huge fan of tea!"
"Hehehe, I love your enthusiasm Kelly, but I can't say for certain how fast it can be ready, and we're also not able to produce a high number of them."
"I see… How's your old man?"
"Ah my old man? He's fine, just like usual, always tending to his goats. The wool we sell does keep us afloat in these trying times after all."
"... if you ever need help you kno—"
Before I can continue, a warm hand is placed on top of mine.
" I know you mean well, and I will keep that in mind, but where's the girl that dislikes people that uses her family or her status for personal gain."
"But this and that is different!"
"Or so you say… Anyway lunch is almost over, and I'm practically drooling right now looking at your food!"
Huh? My food?
"Oh yeah this is what Zarya cooked."
"... if it's not for the height I might have thought that Zarya is the older one…"
"HEY WHAT DOES THAT MEAN!"
—-
"Zarya I'm Back— Why is everything so polished?"
"Ah sister, you're back. I've prepared food. You can eat it once you've taken a bath."
Zarya said as she sat down on the billiard board, holding a billiard stick with a small body. Honestly that looked cute.
Snap!
I took a picture of Zarya trying to fiddle with a stick clearly meant for people larger than her.
Zarya looked at the snap, tilted her head, and just continued to play, as I heard a familiar sound of billiard pool balls hitting one another.
tak tak tak
"So… what have you been doing while I was at school?"
"I've been studying."
"Eh?"
"I looked at the books you collected, compiled necessary information from them, and committed them to memory, and as you can see I'm applying physics and angular calculation towards this ball."
Huh? And then she hit the ball.
Tak
And with one shot, all the remaining balls went into the hole…
clap clap clap
That's awesome, I don't understand but that's awesome!
"But sister."
"Yes?"
"I have a few questions about the books found under your bed, why are men with men—"
"CHOTTO MATTE KUDASAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I guess I need to bust out the birds and the bees!
