Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 912 - 535: Christmas Eve Approaches (Part 3)2

"I still rember the smile you had when you agreed to my confession, the happy yet shy smile during our dates, and the trance and longing on your face when we watched the fireworks festival together... I know how much you wish that ti could stay forever at the mont the fireworks blood..."

Hanamaru Hanabi listened to his gentle voice and thought of many things. She t his gaze and took over his unsaid words:"Because she really liked holding Sakura’s hand back then, feeling his warmth, and witnessing a firework bloom brightly in the night sky together."

Uesugi Sakura smiled at her gaze and said:"In the past, during the fireworks festival, I was so clueless. I didn’t understand what you ant when you gave the candied apple."

Hanamaru Hanabi muttered softly:

"Because back then, Sakura was just a fool who only knew how to study and read books, a big fool!"

"Actually, not a fool, just didn’t understand the feelings of a foolish little sister."

"A fool indeed..."

"A fool, Hanabi-chan has always called a fool. Hanabi-chan... Sakura has been called this all the ti, actually... it doesn’t feel great in the heart..."

Uesugi Sakura lowered his head and slowly placed the lunchbox on the small table beside him.

Then waiting for Hanamaru Hanabi to show concern and ask what was wrong, he suddenly lunged and pinned the girl on the big bed.

"For calling a fool!"

"Sakura!" Hanamaru Hanabi laughed loudly, "What are you doing... hahaha, it tickles~ so itchy~ don’t tickle."

"Humph," Uesugi Sakura directly kicked off his slippers and knelt on the bed, continuously launching tickling attacks under the girl’s armpits, "Take this, take this, take this!"

"Sakura~! Sakura~~ hahaha, don’t be so childish~~ hahaha." Hanamaru Hanabi quickly laughed herself breathless.

"I want to be childish because Hanabi always calls a fool, always calls a fool, always calls a fool!"

"Haha~ Sakura~~~ hahaha..."

"Sigh~~" Uesugi Sakura suddenly let out a long sigh, then fixed his gaze on the girl in disarrayed pink pajamas, "Hanabi-chan, you know, if a person is constantly called a fool, it might lead them to mistakenly believe that they really are a fool."

"Sakura, Sakura wouldn’t think like that, would he?" Hanamaru Hanabi finally caught her breath, her chest heaving heavily with her breathing. Her face turned red again, and her cherry-colored navel was half exposed, exuding the enticing fragrance unique to young girls.

"Why wouldn’t I? To make smarter, from today onwards, Hanabi must say he’s smart, understand?"

"Hmph~ Sakura, you’re too childish."

"What?" Uesugi Sakura inserted a hand into her armpit. It must be said, Hanamaru Hanabi’s skin was very soft, whether it was the skin on her arms or the skin beside her bust, it was comfortably soft and smooth.

And she was most afraid of being tickled here.

"No! Don’t! Sakura—get away!" Hanamaru Hanabi quickly closed her eyes, reaching out both hands to push him away.

"Hmm~~" Uesugi Sakura squinted his eyes, his four fingers hooking in her armpit.

"Haha~ Ayada~~ Sakura, Da, it’s ticklish there~~ haha~" Hanamaru Hanabi squird, trying to escape his grasp, and attempted to pry his arm with her other hand.

But she hadn’t managed to pry one side open before Uesugi Sakura’s other hand reached under her other armpit.

Thus back and forth left and right, Hanamaru Hanabi twisted and turned in all directions echoing laughter, unable to say a word.

"Was it wrong?" Uesugi Sakura with a smile, grabbed one of her feet.

"Wrong! Wrong! Truly wrong!!"

"Alright then, this ti I’ll let tiny Hanabi go."

After Hanamaru Hanabi sat up, instead of apologizing, she imdiately hugged her shark plushie, curled towards the bed head, her face blushing, and called him a "big bully!"

"Oh, it seems you haven’t learned your lesson! Well, then I must teach tiny Hanabi what surrender ans! Take this!" Uesugi Sakura laughed, rushing towards her.

"Ugh! Sakura don’t co over!"

Hanamaru Hanabi also smiled, using the shark plushie to block her face, discovering as he approached she used both hands and feet to hinder his tickling.

"Your toes, don’t kick my nose."

"I want to! Sakura, get away!"

Uesugi Sakura was kicked multiple tis in the face by her foot, yet instead of feeling pain, he beca even happier and lunged at the delicate girl again.

"Sakura the bully!"

"What, clearly Hanabi said it first, how co you’re accusing now?"

"You’re a bully indeed, ahaha~ stop stop~ bad Sakura."

...

Outside the tightly closed bedroom door.

Hanamaru Yuuki listened to the ruckus inside, also smiling, thinking her sister and brother-in-law must be laughing very joyfully now, must find this kind of teasing fun.

Thinking this, she couldn’t help but move her ear closer to the door, spreading her fingers on the door.

Inside, the sound of play and teasing was unceasing, with her sister calling her brother-in-law a bully, and her brother-in-law ceaselessly tickling her sister... they laughed together, teased together...

Hanamaru Yuuki joined in their laughter, revealing a sweet smile.

Yet as she laughed, she suddenly realized that there was only her standing alone, turning to see just an empty living room and bedroom.

Empty.

Hanamaru Yuuki’s energetic smile gradually dimd, placing her right hand in a fist over her heart, gazing at the bedroom door, thinking of much, of diverse thoughts.
