The next morning, I woke up just as if it were reality. To be honest, this world to me already seemed real, and I even found myself conveniently interpreting it as if the original world was just a bad dream.But there was no guarantee that this was correct. All I could think about was trying to live just a little, just a little bolder in this situation.In the morning, Mom and Yuki were relaxing in the living room as usual, and in the kitchen, Yukari was making breakfast. Considering what had happened yesterday, I was worried about how Yuki and Yukari were doing, but nothing seemed to have changed.They returned my greeting in the same way, and as I sat next to them at the table, Yuki seemed to be looking at me with more amusement than usual. It's possible that I'm being self-conscious, but given that today had come after yesterday, I was also relieved.Yukari also smiled a little as we ate together, but I must have noticed that I was a little embarrassed by her unexpected smile, as Mom, who was sitting diagonally across from me, saw that."Everyone seems to be in a better mood than usual today, don't they?"Mom didn't look angry or anything like that. I didn't see Yuki's expression at the time, but Yukari was so shaken up that she nearly dropped her chopsticks. Of course, I was frozen for a moment as well.Yuki also came with me to school today. I thank her every morning for this and today was another day when I enjoyed going to school with her.In fact, I cherish the fact that I can walk with Yuki every morning, who is attractive not only as a sister, but also as a girl. Still, every time I see her in her casual clothes, I remember the shape of her body that I saw in the bathroom.In the end, even though I know I shouldn't be attracted to my sister, I immediately have erotic fantasies. That's what I'm, a useless man and an older brother. This is something I need to face or rather think about.Arriving at school, I say goodbye to Yuki and head to the shoe lockers. Yuki's cram school is closed today, so she'll come to pick me up when I get home. Anyway, today is the start of club observations, so I'll let her know depending on the situation.Today, there are classes until the fifth period, including lunch, and then after school, there is optional club observation time. In other words, today is the start of school for current students, so the school will become more crowded.I'm not really interested in club activities. In reality, I was persecuted for being a nerd because I was in the computer club in middle school, and while I wanted to join the literature club in high school, I couldn't stand the stares of the girls at the provisional joining stage.At the time, I felt that my presence was making the atmosphere unpleasant, so I didn't officially join, and in the end, it became a club that only went home after school.I still sometimes regret that I might have grown into a decent person if I had continued in some club activity. But I shake off the regret, thinking that in the end I wouldn't have been able to do that because I'm so bad at building relationships with people.Anyway, that way of thinking hasn't changed much even now. I'm aware that if I join a club activity, the atmosphere in that club might become unpleasant, and I even feel guilty.Even in my class, although I can talk to Sasai-san and Yamamoto-san, that's still not yet established. I'm not confident that I'll be able to build relationships between seniors and juniors.However, I do think that if it's a cultural club, I might at least go and observe, and I feel that it's a waste to spend the long trial period doing nothing. At this school, you're allowed to join multiple clubs, but you also have the option of not joining any clubs, so there's a lot of freedom.A list of clubs and societies was distributed by the student council. I'll aim for clubs that don't seem to be strict, like the literature club, astronomy club, or manga club, but I intend to go and see them in person to make a judgment.The classes that began today were all first-time classes, and each one started with a greeting from the teacher. All of the teachers for today's subject were women, and they ranged in age. The youngest teachers were in their mid-20s, while the more experienced ones seemed to be in their 50s or older.Then, after the fourth period, it was lunchtime. I had planned to quietly eat Yukari's lunch somewhere out of sight.However, just as I was about to take out my lunch and get up from my seat, Sasai and Yamamoto walked over to my seat. Both of them were holding cute-looking lunch boxes in their hands."Sato-kun, if it's lunch, we could eat it together... if you don't mind."Sasai said this a little shyly but looking me in the eye. Yamamoto, who was next to me, didn't move, with an anxious expression on her face.
