The day before Comiket.

I was on the train, replying to a LINE from Otomizu, which was my daily routine every morning.

–Good morning, Sasamiya-san!

–Good morning. We’re going to Big Site1 today, so get ready.

–Yes!

We were going to check on the progress of the corporate booth arrangements today.

It was Otomizu’s first time working at Big Site, so I could understand how nervous she was.

Oops, I got another line from Otomizu.

–Have you ever been to Comiket, Sasamiya-san?

–I have, as a visitor. My sister wanted to see some cosplay, so I took her there once.

–You must really care about your sister.

–I’m just worried about her.

However, since entering junior high school, she had become more tomboyish, which was troubling.

When I went back to my parents’ house a while back, I was so surprised to see her as a modern junior high school girl.

I hope she doesn’t grow in a weird direction. …

As I stuffed my phone in my bag, the ever-present high school girl arrived.

“Good morning, Onii-San.”

“Yo. Yuika.”

She was in her school uniform again today, so she was probably attending morning practice for club activities.

The CG club is tough.

Oh Yeah. I should report that I made up with Kaedezaka.

Yuika helped me out this time, too.

“You remember the trainee that wasn’t talking to me? We managed to resolve it nicely.”

“Did she laugh?”

“Yeah. I missed the timing to tell the joke, but she thought it was funny to see me in trouble.”

“I agree with her.”

“No way you agree with that.”

Whether Kaedezaka or Yuika, why would they take pleasure seeing me in trouble?

Is this the school culture of Saint Mary’s College? 

“Anyway, with this, the work will go smoothly.”

“Good for you.”

Yuika then broached another subject.

“By the way, you were on LINE earlier, your junior?”

“Yeah. It was a business matter.”

“Houhou. So that’s the nature of the lovemaking business. I understand.”

… This guy…. sometimes uses phrases like a middle aged man.

Couldn’t you do something more like a typical high school girl’s conversation?

And here I decided to ask a question.

“I always wonder, does Yuika have a boyfriend?”

I had not asked her for details about her friendships, but she was a relatively good talker.

She was also a beautiful girl and had large breasts. Boys in her grade would never leave her alone.

Then she revealed something surprising.

“I think someone from another school confessed to me the other day.” She said,

“What!? Seriously!!!”

I was rather genuinely surprised.

No, One would be surprised, right?

Because the girl I saw every day was confessed to by someone.

Reluctantly, I decided to ask her about the guy.

“… what kind of man is he?” I asked,

“Yeah. I think he was comparatively good looking.” She replied,

“Eh….. ehh….” 

“Cheer up.”

“Don’t talk about me like I’m not good-looking.” I said,

Well, you know.

I never considered myself to be good-looking, but it hurts to be called that.

“And what about his personality?” I asked,

“He is a kind man. He always has a smile on his face.”

“I see. ….”

“Cheer up.”

“Don’t say that like I am completely unsociable.”

“You’re always like that, aren’t you?” She said,

“I was.” I replied,

But from what I have heard, the other guy sounded like a pretty nice guy.

A good looking face and a gentle personality. Now that’s cheating, don’t you think?

Ha~. …. A guy for Yuika? ….

I thought it was not surprising that she had one, but to hear it directly from her like this was quite shocking.

Normally Yuika appeared to be indifferent, but I was sure that in front of her boyfriend she would speak with a sparkling expression on her face.

It was not my place to say anything about it, but it was kind of amusing…

“So Yuika is going with that guy?” I asked,

“No. I turned him down.”

“Eh!? Why?”

“Why do you think that is?” She asked,

“I don’t know.”

“Understandable, you are Onii-san after all.”

Yuika was convinced that I was some kind of special creature.

Was it that unusual that I didn’t know why she turned him down?

“But the conditions were perfect.” (T/N: Conditions as in dude was perfect.)

“It wasn’t that I didn’t like the person or anything, but I thought maybe now was not the right  time. ….”

“Is that how it is?”

“I have a lot of things going on too.”

The way she said that didn’t sound like a normal high school girl.

What do you mean by “lot of things”?

Then Yuika said, “Oh yeah,” and turned her gaze to me.

“I’m going out with my friends first thing tomorrow morning, so I won’t be able to see you, but don’t worry.

Speaking of tomorrow, isn’t it the day of Comiket?

I would be going straight to the work site too, so I wouldn’t be able to meet her either.

Friends of Yuika…

I wonder who they were.

Since it was right after she was confessed to by someone, I suspect that there might be a guy there as well.

While I was thinking about this, Yuika suddenly said,

“By the way, they are all girls.”

“I see.”

”Are you relieved?”

“Phew. ….No, I’m not worried about it.”

“I’d love to hear what you really think.”

“I feel only slightly relieved.”
