"Kei, you really like Kaguya-san, huh?" Sakurai Saki asked curiously.
"Yes yes! Kaguya-senpai is really famous in our middle school. Also… she often goes shopping with too!" Kei recalled the ti when she got to know Kaguya.
⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
Almost every month, the two of them would go buy clothes, eat sweets — of course, not just the two of them, Chika and her little sister also joined.
"If Shinomiya can live like a normal person, that's really sothing to be happy about." Shirogane Miyuki sighed.
He felt like a father who had guided that stubborn girl onto the right path.
"Was Kaguya-senpai strange before?" Kei asked. When she got to know Kaguya, it was already the "Kaguya after the ice lted" period.
"I actually liked her more back then."
Sakurai Saki liked the "ice statue" version of Kaguya the most.
And now — this version of "cute silly Kaguya," cute is cute, but it's lost its flavor.
More importantly — now Sakurai can't scold her anymore.
Because Kaguya now no longer uses sarcastic words against him like before.
Sakurai had always believed in the principle of "an eye for an eye."
The ancients once said:
"Question: How to repay hatred with virtue?"
"Answer: Then how do you repay virtue?"
"Use frankness to respond to hatred, and virtue to repay virtue."
aning — when facing soone who irritates you, treat them fairly, without leniency.
Kaguya doesn't scold him, and he can't scold her either, Sakurai thought.
Honestly speaking… it's really frustrating.
It's been nearly half a year since he last had a verbal spar with Kaguya — ah, if you count "sparring with the body," there was one ti, soft… and even a bit sweet.
"Sakurai, are you serious?" Shirogane looked at him, really unable to understand.
(·•᷄ࡇ•᷅ )
Is this guy an M? Does he like being scolded or what?
"This life is way too peaceful, not a single ripple. There has to be a bit of excitent."
"You should focus on sorting out your ssy relationships first." Shirogane Miyuki said irritably.
"Let's stop talking about this. My head hurts."
Sakurai Saki raised his hand to his forehead.
"That's why I said, you really shouldn't—"
"Aniki, what have you two been talking about this whole ti? I don't understand anything." Shirogane Kei cut in.
"We were talking about … umm—?" Sakurai hadn't even finished speaking when Shirogane Miyuki covered his mouth.
"What were you planning to say to my little sister?"
After seeing Sakurai stop struggling, Shirogane Miyuki finally let go of him.
Letting his sister like Sakurai Saki was a no-go, but letting Sakurai's image collapse in Kei's heart was also a no-go! Shirogane Miyuki felt truly stuck — on one side was his best friend, on the other was his most beloved little sister.
In short, this conversation cannot continue!
"...Nothing. It's just that at school, there are always people sending love letters, which is kind of annoying." Sakurai Saki smiled and said to Kei.
"Oh, I see. At my school too, there are often people…"
Kei hadn't even finished.
"Who!?" ×2
( ◺˰◿ )(◣ _ ◢)
Both guys shot up from their seats at the sa ti.
'Which bastard dares to go after my little sister?' Shirogane Miyuki gritted his teeth.
'Middle school boys dare to set their sights on Kei-chan?' Sakurai Saki's anger level instantly rose by 50%.
Kei blinked a few tis, wondering why their reaction was so intense.
She explained, "I didn't agree to any of it. I threw all the letters away."
"Well done! Middle school students should focus on their studies, what love affairs are you talking about?" Sakurai Saki nodded in satisfaction.
"Exactly, Sakurai's totally right!"
Kei looked at the two of them making the exact sa gesture and felt as if she really had gained another older brother.
...
After that, the three of them sat together drinking tea for a while.
When Sakurai Saki looked at the clock and saw it was getting late, he stood up to leave.
"Sakurai, you're really not staying for dinner?" Shirogane Miyuki asked.
"Didn't you say our new houses are only a few minutes' walk apart?"
"Yeah. But there are still people at my place." Sakurai Saki said as he walked to the door.
"Well then, I'll go cook dinner. Co over again next ti."
Shirogane Miyuki said goodbye, then turned around.
Kei imdiately said, "Saki-nii, can I co over to your house and take a look?"
Shirogane Miyuki stopped imdiately.
Shirogane: ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!
"Sakurai, since your place is so close, I'll co take a look too." He changed his mind.
So, the three of them went downstairs together and headed toward Sakurai Saki's new house.
...
Sunlight outside the window shone through the balcony glass, casting its light into the living room.
Nakano Nino, lying on the sofa, turned over. Her sleepy eyes slowly opened, and her long eyelashes trembled lightly.
/ᐠ - ˕ -マ ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁
"...Haa~" Nino lazily stretched on the sofa. Unfortunately, no one was there to see that alluring figure.
She slipped on her slippers, glanced around, then—like a robot—suddenly froze.
Weird.
Where is this?
A few seconds later, Nino finally rembered.
"Right, this is his house."
More precisely, it was the new house of him and his girlfriend.
The reason why Nino was so sleepy was simply because she hadn't slept enough last night.
Once your biological clock is ssed up, no amount of napping during the day can make up for it.
After washing her face and putting on makeup, Nino sat back down on the sofa and opened her phone to text and ask where Sakurai Saki was.
She had only typed a few words when she heard the sound of the elevator.
'Give him a surprise!'
Nino sprang up and walked to the door.
"Ding dong." The electronic lock was opened.
"You bastard! Welco ho!!"
