"...

"

Looking at both of her siblings, who showed a stunned expression, Miu was a bit amused and asked,

"What's with your expression? That's very rude, you know?

"

"Ah, well, I have wondered what kind of buy that Nee-chan would bring back home, but...

" Haruma looked at Miu and asked,

"Nee-chan, this isn't your boyfriend, right?

"

"...

" Miu.

Shishio looked at Haruma amusedly and asked,

"Why do you think so?

"

"Well, you're so handsome, after all, and Nee-chan...

" Even though Haruma had to admit that his sister was on the cuter side, but... well... there were a lot of beautiful girls in this Tokyo, and his sister was on the plain side, looking at Shishio, he had a feeling that this guy was very popular at the school.

Miu wanted to get angry at her little brother, but somehow, she knew that his words were quite right, but...

"That's not true, Miu-senpai is very gentle and kind, but more importantly, she's adorable. She's quite popular at school, you know?

" Shishio said while looking at Miu with a smile.

Miu blushed instantly, and when she was being praised, she didn't dare to look at him at his moment, lowering her head under his gaze, showing how shy she was.

"...

" Miu's little brother and little sister.

Haruma looked at Shishio and Miu, and somehow he let out a sigh since he knew his big sister was at his mercy, but he quickly bowed his head and held his little sister's head to bow her head toward Shishio.

"My sister has her share of flaws... but please take care of her for the rest of her life.

"

"....

" Shishio.

"Don't make such a strange greeting!!!

" Miu quickly retorted with a red face. She then coughed and said,

"Now that you mention, it is rude that I haven't introduced both of my siblings. I'm sorry, well... This is Haruma. He just started middle school.

"

"Evenin'!

" Haruma greeted Shishio with a frivolous style.

"And my sister Miya, a second-year in an elementary school,

" Miu introduced her little sister.

"Evenin'!

" Miya also followed her brother, but at the same time, she kept looking at Shishio with a red face.

Shishio nodded at both of them and said,

"Nice to meet you. I'm Shishio Oga. I'm Miu-senpai's junior. By the way, I have brought a cake for you two. Do you want to eat them?

"

"Cake!

" 2x

Haruma and Miya quickly turned their heads toward Miu with an excited expression, then looked at the box of cakes in her hand.

Miu let out a long sigh and said,

"Don't eat them too much, alright? We'll have dinner later.

"

"Yay!

" 2x

Haruma and Miya cheered at the same time.

Miu then looked at Shishio and asked,

"Shishio-kun, will you join in the dinner?

"

Shishio was a bit stunned. In truth, he wanted to eat in Wagnaria, wondering whether he could get more rewards, but he didn't expect Miu to invite him to eat.

"Is that alright? Won't I become a bother to your family?

"

"No, it is alright. You bought a cake for my family, so at least this is the hospitality that I can return to you,

" Miu quickly said.

"But I might meet your parents, you know?

" Shishio asked.

".....

" Miu's face was reddened when she thought Shishio might meet her parents, but...

Shishio felt that his leg was being hugged and looked down. He saw Miya hugging his leg.

"Onii-chan, can you stay?

" Miya asked with a puppy-like expression.

Shishio looked at Miya for a moment, patted her head gently, and said,

"I don't mind, but you should ask your brother and sister first.

"

Miya then quickly turned her head, looking at both Miu and Haruma.

"Nii-chan... Nee-chan...

"

"Ugh...

" 2x

Looking at the cute expression of their little sisters, they couldn't help but admit defeat. After all, even though they hid it, they really doted on their little sister.

"Well, I don't think it is a problem,

" Haruma said simply and didn't think too much, even if Shishio stayed at his apartment or not. After all, he could tell that Shishio's relationship was very close to Miu.

Miu was still blushing, but she also nodded.

"Well, we can eat later, but for now, how about we discuss the novel in my room, Shishio-kun?

"

Shishio looked at Miu with a meaningful smile, but he nodded.

"I want to come to~~

" Miya raised her hand without hesitation, but...

"NO!!!

" Haruma quickly stopped his little sister and started to preach to his little sister.

"We shouldn't get into their way, or they can't do what they can do. Got it?

"

"...

" Miya only stared at Haruma with a blank expression, clearly not understanding what her brother was saying.

"Stop with the needless consideration, will you?!!

" Miu only realized how tired she was when she needed to handle both her little sister and brother at the same time.

---

Inside Miu's room, Shishio sat on the tatami floor, looking at her room curiously. He had to admit that there was this sweet smell and thought this was really Miu's room since he could smell the trace of her smell everywhere.

Miu, who was about to take her story, looked at Shishio and asked,

"Shishio-kun, isn't it hot? Don't you want to take off your jacket?

"

"Well...

" In truth, the temperature of this country was still quite cold for him, but it wasn't on an unbearable level for him. He then took off his jacket and showed off his perfectly fit t-shirt, showing off his muscles perfectly.

".....

"

Miu felt that her face was quite hot, and it might be her imagination that she felt like she was a boy who asked a woman to take off their clothes so he could see her body, which somehow made her feel that she was perverted for some reason. She quickly shook her head and tried to look away, taking two of her stories and said,

"Here, a short detective story and ghost stories.

"

Shishio also took out his manuscript and gave it to Miu.

"Here's my story.

"

"Oh!

" Miu quickly took Shishio's manuscript with interest and read the title immediately.

"5 Centimeters per Second?

" She then looked at Shishio with a curious expression.

"It's a romance,

" Shishio said.

"Romance!

" Miu was surprised and became more interested.

"It hasn't been completed yet, right?

"

"There are three parts, but I have only written one,

" Shishio said.

"Then, I'll read ---

" Miu wanted to read Shishio's story then look at the entrance of her room.

"By the way, will you stop peeking so obviously?

"

Shishio and Miu saw two hands holding a mirror and came out from the other side of the room.

"Tsk!

"

"See? I knew she'd find out~.

"

Haruma and Miya entered the room and showed both different reactions.

"It surprises me that you believed you were hidden like that...

" Miu stared at both of them with a speechless expression.

"But it's troubling for us! This is your first time bringing a boy back, you know? We are puberty, you know?

" Haruma complained.

"You know?

" Miya chirped.

"...

"

Miu let out a sigh and said,

"Then, why don't you just stay here? We're just talking about novels.

"

Haruma and Miya then looked at Shishio, and their eyes brightened.

"Oga-san, how did you have such a body?

" Haruma quickly looked at Shishio's body in amazement. He could see that even though Shishio's body wasn't particularly huge, he could feel a pack of power inside Shishio's body, and more importantly, it was very handsome.

Miya didn't care much about her brother and sat down on Shishio's lap directly.

"I can sit here, right, Onii-chan?

"

Shishio patted Miya's head which caused her to show a blissful expression since it was so comfortable, then looked at Haruma and said,

"You should eat a lot of protein such as meat or milk. You're still in a growing period. So as long as you eat them, you'll grow as big as me.

"

"Really?

" Haruma, after all, didn't really want to become a shorty, so he quickly made a note, then he asked,

"By the way, Oga-san, did you walk to come here? You didn't wear your uniform. Do you live nearby?

" He had been curious for a while and wondered why Shishio didn't wear his uniform.

"No, I rode a motorcycle,

" Shishio said.

"Motorcycle?!

" Haruma was dumbfounded, but then his eyes shone excitedly. However, he frowned and asked,

"But Oga-san, you're Nee-chan's junior, right? Can you ride on a motorcycle? You need to have a driving license, right?

"

Miu almost forgot since Shishio was too handsome before, but when she thought about it clearly, wasn't it a crime for him to ride on a motorcycle when he was the only freshman in high school.

"Shhh!

" Shishio made a gesture for them to be quiet and said,

"As long as you don't report me, then I'll be alright.

"

"Shhh!

" Miya laughed and followed Shishio's gesture, but Haruma and Miu were dumbfounded since they didn't expect Shishio to be a bad boy!

Miu felt complex, but Haruma was excited and asked,

"Oga-san, can I see your motorcycle?

"

"I parked it in front of the apartment building. You can see it there,

" Shishio said.

"I'll go there!

" Haruma quickly left and ran to see Shishio's motorcycle.

Shishio then looked at Miu and asked,

"Senpai, don't tell the school, alright?

"

Miu somehow understood that Shishio wasn't as perfect as he seemed.

"Well, I won't tell anyone, but careful, alright? You don't have a driving license, right?

"

"No, I have one,

" Shishio said and showed his driving license to Miu.

"....

" Miu.

"I want to see it too!

" Miya also looked at Shishio's driving license curiously.

"How did you get one?

" Miu asked.

"It's a secret,

" Shishio said with a smile.

"....

" Miu.

"Well, Senpai, why don't we read each other's stories first?

" Shishio asked.

"Ah, that's true!

" Miu nodded and started to read Shishio's story since she was very curious about what kind of romance story he had written.

"Onii-chan, are you writing a story too?

" Miya asked.

"Um.

" Shishio nodded and started to talk with Miya.

While Shishio and Miya talked to each other, Miu was absorbed in Shishio's story as if she was one of the characters inside. She could feel the shyness, happiness, and even the ache and painful feeling of the characters inside the story.

They were very harmonious until they heard Haruma's voice and a woman's voice.

"I'm back!

"

"Oga-san, can you let me ride on your motorcycle?

" Haruma quickly said and was ready to bow his head, but before Shishio answered, his head was knocked by an older woman whose face was similar to Miu's.

"Haruma! What are you saying? You're still a middle school student! And can you even ride a motorcycle?

"

"It hurts!

" Haruma held his head and was on the verge of crying.

Shishio looked at this older woman and thought instantly that she was Miu's mother.

'Wow, a cutie!'

Shishio didn't expect Miu's mother would be so cute, and at the same time...

"Zone

">

".....

" Shishio.

"Oh my, Miu, you have brought a boy home!

" Miu's mother was so excited.

"M - Mom...

" Miu's face was very red, and she wasn't sure what to do.

"What's your name?

" Miu's mother ignored Miu and looked at Shishio.

"My name is Shishio Oga, aunty,

" Shishio said.

"Oga-kun, how about you have dinner with us, and tell me how you meet Miu?

" Miu's mother asked.

"MOM!!!!

"

Shishio looked at Miu, and somehow he couldn't wait for her growth.

---

After an embarrassing dinner moment, Shishio decided to go home, and Miu would also send him back.

"Oga-san, please come again!

" Haruma really wanted Shishio to come again since that way he could ask him to teach him how to ride on a motorcycle.

"Onii-chan, please come again, alright?

" Miya was already very sticky toward Shishio.

"Yes, you can come again to play, Oga-kun,

" Miu's mother said.

".....

" Looking at how eager they were, Shishio wasn't sure how to describe his emotion and wondered what would happen if he told them that he had a girlfriend. He just came to let Miu read his story but didn't expect the development would turn into this.

"Then I'll visit you in the future.

"

Mui's face was already burning red, and she said,

"I'll send Shishio-kun first.

"

Shishio and Miu then left together, while Miya, Haruma, and Miu's mother looked at their backs with a thoughtful expression.

---

Walking next to each other, they didn't hold hands at this moment. Miu was very shy, but she still said,

"Your story is amazing, Shishio-kun. You might be able to publish it directly as long as the development is good.

" She really thought that Shishio's story was very amazing. It was so romantic and sad at the same time.

"Thank you.

" Shishio nodded, but then he remembered something and said,

"By the way, Senpai, I might not be able to come to the club tomorrow.

"

"Eh? Why?

" Miu asked in surprise.

"I have something to do tomorrow, so please tell Sensei about it,

" Shishio said since he had a feeling that Kiriya might cause him a lot of trouble if he didn't come to the club twice, but he had made a promise with Rui to help her, so there was nothing that he could do.

Miu nodded with a smile and said,

"Don't worry, I'll tell him.

"

"Thank you.

"

Looking at his expression, Miu looked at Shishio for a bit, and somehow, she wasn't sure why, but she remembered his story that she read before. It might not be related, but a writer often wrote stories based on their experience.

'Was that Shishio's experience?'

Miu wondered, but then, she just asked casually,

"Shishio-kun, can I ask something?

"

"Yes?

" Shishio looked at Miu curiously, wondering what question that she wanted to ask.

"Do you have a girlfriend?

" Miu asked, but her heart was beating very fast, and she felt that she was very bold at that moment. Her face flushed in shyness, but she still stared at him shyly at this moment, waiting for his answer. She just felt comfortable with him, and it was very nice to be with him. Her world was bright when she was with him.

Shishio looked at Miu for a moment before he nodded.

"Yes, I have a girlfriend.

"

"....

"

Miu felt that the world became dim at this moment, and she felt weak all of a sudden.

"Senpai?

" Shishio looked at Miu worriedly.

Hearing Shishio's voice, Miu took a deep breath and forced herself to smile.

"Shishio-kun, can you walk by yourself? I feel a bit tired now.

"

Shishio looked at Miu for a moment and also let out a sigh.

"Well, be careful, Senpai.

" He wasn't blind since he knew that he had hurt her, but it was something inevitable. He couldn't date Miu by pretending that he didn't date anyone. He wasn't sure whether their relationship would develop further, but the first obstacle between their relationship had been passed, and now, whether they would part or together, it depended on his next action.

Miu looked at Shishio's back and slowly walked away. She wanted to reach him, but she knew that she couldn't. Standing in the middle of the stairs, she just didn't know what to do until she could only squat down, sobbing there quietly.

'Why?'

Miu thought about that question, and the memory of when they met for the first time, being together until now, appeared on her mind. She wanted to have more memories again with him, but now, it was impossible since they had drifted away, and she couldn't stop him.
