Chapter 30A Little Sis Who Is Willing to Take Risks
"I want to eat Häagen..."
(TL Note: Häagen-Dazs. Ice cream brand.)
"Oh, if you're shorten the name like that, it sounds cool..."
When you feel bad, aren't you quite happy even if it's something cheap? Why would you bother saying something that is two ranks higher than usual...? Isn't it okay to eat cheap ice cream?
But wait a minute... ...why is it that the Häagen bowl gets thrown into the garbage can in my kitchen on a regular basis? Even though I haven't had any...
I knew it was a sin to eat Häagen.
It's better to eat watermelon popsicle. This is an ice cream that is full of childhood memories and has a nostalgic taste. It makes you feel warm. Yeah, I mean, even if it's just ice cream. I haven't had it in years.
It was Ashida who said so while resting her head on the table. Even though we were in the middle of class, she kicked the back of my seat and sometimes indirectly my butt, and she kept saying 'hot, huh' or 'really hot'. Even though it was my ass that was hot.
But still, instead of using your feet, I wish you would just use your hands and care for me like other normal people do...
Teacher, there is bullying in this school... SOB, SOB...
Then after the lesson ended, I went to buy myself an ice cream and brought it back to the classroom. When I got back to the classroom, I threw the ice cream pack that came from my ice cream at Ashida's back. And, I got a strong spike on top of my head.
Ugh, I knew it, Volleyball Club member, her spike knocked me to the floor.
Until the next class started, I played with my smartphone alone. Then I could see the image at the far corner of my field of vision. As I directed my consciousness to the end of my field of vision, I immediately realized who it was.
"─Hey!"
Hoho... ...Goddess... ...Did you come down just to see me?
Oh, yeah, that's right, this is the first time I've been approached by her so far since our uniforms changed to summer uniforms.
D*mn it, I want to turn around and look at her right now. But I can't look straight at her, because my eyes will shatter! (No, they won't shatter.)
"Hey, you!"
"Shattered already ─Huh, me?"
"...Y-Yeah, you."
I noticed Natsukawa's hand that was placed on the desk. But since it's about Natsukawa, I guess she wasn't calling me but Ashida, who was sitting behind me.
I put aside the joke that popped into my head and directed my body towards Natsukawa.
Even so, the stimulation was quite strong, huh... ...Ugh!
"Um... ...what?"
"Sajocchi, your behavior is suspicious."
"Natsukawa, tell me what do you want quickly. My body won't last that long."
"I'm not an insecticide, you know?!"
"I'm not an insect either..."
I thought it was a reasonable 'tsukkomi', but it wasn't. Moreover, her words were quite sharp.
They were so sharp that I almost laughed. I mean, how could she treat people as insects so calmly?
But, even if it's just a joke, why does it sound like she's saying it on purpose.... ...Hmm? So, you're not pretending, huh? Yeah, never mind, more than that, I'll stare at you...
"...560 points."
"Then, you get 49 points."
"Oh... ...at least add one more point, please..."
Why does it look like she just wanted to kill me... ...Normally, wouldn't you want to make the most of it?
Just now... ...Feeling like there was a cliff in front of me, I hit the front brake very suddenly, and it seemed like I stopped at the edge of the cliff, but I fell anyway.
Hey, why are you giggling like that? D*mn, you're so cute... ...Okay, 600 points.
"Yeah, never mind. So, what's up, Natsukawa?"
"Huh...?!"
"...?"
The Goddess' smile had changed completely. And Natsukawa became somewhat panicked.
Um... ...I wonder if I made a mistake in time... ...If I keep quiet, Natsukawa will keep giggling.
If I had known beforehand, I would have kept quiet... ...D*mn it.
"Well, Natsukawa...?"
"Um, that's... ...Y-You, so, well..."
"Yeah?"
Natsukawa seemed to be agitated. Natsukawa was like that, her behavior was much more suspicious than mine, who saw it with an impure heart.
What is this —Hmm?!!! Natsukawa's face... isn't it getting red?!! What's wrong?! Seriously, what's wrong?!
"After this─ ─Well... I'm, ugh, hmm..."
"..."
"I-I'm, hmm..."
"...???"
I ended up getting really confused. The moment I realized that, I tried to tilt my head and tried to guess.
Wait, wait, think again. My brain, try harder!
What did Natsukawa want to tell me... ...If it was me, I'm sure I would've guessed it.
Remember how many years I've been with Natsukawa...! There's nothing that I don't understand! Actually... ...I'll reveal it!
"─D-Disgusting."
"Ugh..."
"Aichi?!"
"Oh, no, that's not what I meant─."
"Sajocchi?! Are you still breathing?! You're not dead yet, are you?!"
I can understand that I've lost consciousness. Oh, that's how short life is... ...If I had any regrets, it would be the computer in my room. I wonder if it will explode along with my body. If that's the case, I can travel to Hell or something without worrying about that... ...Huh, Heaven? Am I allowed to go there? God?!
"Hey, hey, Aichi...! Sajocchi is, even him like that, a human too, you know?!"
"Yeah, he's a complete human being. Why did you say, 'even him like that', hey?"
The moment I heard those words that I couldn't forget, I took another breath.
What's wrong with this girl? Is she a genius at making people put on a straight face? And, what's with the 'I'm giving you support from here!' face? Don't smirk at me! Stop, stop that smug face!
"Natsukawa, please forgive me... ...I won't bother you anymore."
"N-Nobody said you were annoying, though..."
What?! How is that different? I thought you came all the way just to get back at me for what I did to you... ...Oh? Maybe that word 'Disgusting' that you just said, you meant to give it as a gift to me?
If that's the case, I feel like I can't live anymore... ...I can't help it...
"U-Um..."
"..."
I held back the feeling where I wanted to say, 'What is it then?', and waited for Natsukawa's words without saying anything. I thought that if I listened to her without joking, I would be able to hear her someday. So being surprised by the beautiful girl in front of me, my face became ridiculous. I did try to hold it in but... ...Natsukawa looked at me and took a step or two back with an 'ugh' face.
"...Should I just let her die?"
"What are you muttering in a whisper! Hey! Aichi?!"
"Oh, Oh?! Wait! Hey, Kei...!"
Ashida who stood up vigorously. She grabbed Natsukawa's shoulder from the front and pushed her out into the corridor. I could hear Ashida saying something out loud and Natsukawa sounded like she was in a hurry.
What the heck is going on?
"What happened just now?"
"...Oh, Sasaki...? Oh, aren't you Sasaki!"
"What the heck was that? Why are you saying something like when you meet an old classmate for the first time after a long time..."
It's not limited to Sasaki alone, but lately I've been trying to make myself not stand out, so it's rare for boys to do stupid things. Especially Yamazaki, I feel smarter than before just because I haven't talked to him in a long time. His influence on others is really great...
"It seems that the Soccer Club has been having a hard time lately in the summer. Did you and Yamazaki do something stupid?"
"Don't equate me with him. I'm different."
"Poor Yamazaki..."
Poor Yamazaki. Even Sasaki, who is good friends with him, would say such things. I think he's really sorry, therapy when I think back about the things that happened recently between me, Big Sis, Natsukawa and Ashida. I'm the one who's really sorry.
I who humbly feel proud to be normal, but why am I treated less than a human? Could it be that I'm a primate? Yeah, I'm being compared to a gorilla.
"Sajou."
"Hmm...?"
"Airi-chan, she's cute."
"Wh-What were you talking about just now...?"
I thought, 'who is he talking about?' for a moment, but it was about Natsukawa's little sis.
...Oh, Natsukawa's little sis?
Yeah, Sasaki likes to show off, so I guess he said something about his girlfriend. Wait, he already has a girlfriend, right? ...No? But, I guess it's a handsome jock type of boy. If I had the same face as him, I wouldn't hold back like this anymore!
Just as I was overreacting, a message suddenly appeared on my smartphone.
What the heck is that... ...Sasaki?
Sasaki sent me a photo of him with Natsukawa's little sis.
Oh, she's so attached to Sasaki! I guess the fact that he's a real big bro isn't just for show off. Moreover, Airi-chan looks cute. I'm sure that she'll be as pretty as Natsukawa when she grows up.
Ugh, I see... ...that's how you play with me, huh...
"I'll send this photo to Yuki-chan."
"Oh! Don't, you idiot! Please don't do that! Hey, don't save that photo!"
"You misunderstood about your little sis being a brocon, Sasaki! Yuki-chan is a sincere person and will exchange messages with me and Yamazaki, if it has anything to do with you!"
"Oh... ...Oh...!"
Y-Yeah, even if she's just messing with me, does she need to react like that? I mean, I'm not saying this just to bully you.
You see, she's cute, right? And she's a brocon...
I want a cute little sis like Yuki-chan too, I want her to sneak into my bed at night... ...Oh, I got a reply.
[Thanks for the photo. I'll be a little girl too, from now on.]
Hoho, I-I see. Being a little girl─ Hmm?
What does that mean? Did she just swallow an apotoxin pill?
(TL Note: Detective Conan reference.)
Didn't Sasaki say that she was already in middle school? If she took the risk of swallowing that pill, she would most likely turn back into a baby instead of a little girl...!?
(TL Note: In Detective Conan, after Shinichi Kudo swallowed the apotoxin, his body became 10 years younger, from 17 years old to 7 years old. Well, this Yuki is in the third-year of middle school, or about 14 years old so if she swallows the apotoxin, she will be 4 years old.)
And, if she ever talks to a body like that, their parents will run away in bare feet.
I'm not sure, but it's a possibility that would happen to Sasaki with that level of family gathering. Besides, that topic doesn't seem good. Did he realize it would end like this? Yeah, what can I say other than, his little sis is that type of girl, huh...?
Sasaki Yuki: "Fufufu. Big Bro..."
Author Note: Once again, the Main Character is not Sasaki-kun, hey!
