The next thing I knew, the clock had struck midnight.

 

After watching the movie, we both fell asleep and seemed to have let go of our consciousness for a little while.

 

“Did you fall asleep? …”

 

“Looks like it.”

 

Perhaps it was because I had fallen asleep in a strange position, but my back and neck were sore.

 

“Do you want to sleep?”

 

“Of course. We have to start school tomorrow.”

 

“Yeah.”

 

We both took a bath, brushed our teeth and went to bed.

 

“Good night.”

 

“Yes, good night.”

 

We went into our respective room, and I collapsed onto my bed.

 

 *****

 

“Morning, …”

 

The alarm set for 6:30 woke me up.

 

I realized that it had been a long time since I woke up to an alarm at this time.

 

“I have to get up.” I rubbed my sleepy eyes, but woke up.

 

I went straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

 

After a while, Sara also woke up.

 

Recently, she had been waking up by herself. Sometimes even earlier than me.

 

“Good morning.”

 

“Good morning, Nii-San.”

 

She helped me arrange the breakfast on the living room table.

 

For breakfast today, we had toast and a fried egg with a salad.

""

 

I had coffee and Sara had orange juice as usual.

 

“Itadakimasu!”

 

We clasped our hands together and started eating.

 

“It’s delicious.”

 

“Ma~, it’s pretty simple.”

 

Thus, eating together became a regular occurrence.

 

“We have to get dressed.”

 

“Right.”

 

The time on the top right corner of the TV read 7:30 AM.

 

It was time to get dressed and leave the house. We went back to our rooms and put on our uniforms. It had been almost a month since we wore our uniforms.

 

Even the uniform I was used to wearing felt fresh after a month of not wearing it.

 

The ridiculously hot weather of summer had calmed down, and the temperature was just right for autumn clothes.

 

“Now then, shall we go?”

 

“Hai.”

 

By the time we finished getting dressed and was ready to leave the house, it was showing a little after eight o’clock.

 

I turned off the TV, the lights and headed for the front door.

 

I put on my loafers, which I was used to wearing, and walked out the door.

 

“It’s kind of refreshing after so long.”

 

“Yes, it is.”

 

We smiled at each other and walked together all the way to school.

 

I felt that even an ordinary day would become something special with Sara.

 

“You two have been hot since the beginning of summer vacation. …”

 

As I was approaching the school, Rio started teasing, which had become a standard.

 

“Good morning, Rio.”

 

“Good morning!!”

 

She was already being energetic.

 

Well, if she was not in good spirits, I’d be worried about her.

 

“I haven’t seen Rio since the barbecue, so it’s been a while.”  (Sara)

 

“Yeah, right. Let’s work hard in the second semester!” (Rio)

 

“Yeah.” (Haruki)

 

I walked with Sara and Rio all the way to school.

 

As a man with two beautiful girls in his arms, I was getting used to the painful stares. No, familiarity was truly a terrible thing.

(T/N: Yeah the title is same I checked the raws twice.)
