Its not that I hate it, its just. Its hot.

Struggling to overcome this sudden rush of fatigue, Reina tried to smile as she usually did.

Thats all? Really?

Yes, really.

As a matter of fact, no, thats not all. But she couldnt very well say, Im getting dizzy because youve changed, too.

Reina looked away and feigned innocence.

Just in time, she saw the tea table thats been prepared in advance, and she found a face she hadnt seen before.

Hm? Who?

Ah.

At Reinas question, he lowered their hands together and naturally interlaced his fingers with hers.

Shes my sister. Let me introduce you to her.

For a moment, she felt flustered by how Eli so smoothly held her hands as though they were boyfriend and girlfriend. But Reina soon widened her eyes at the word sister.

Oh my

Were the genes of the Jehardt family embedded with cuteness?

Still glancing down at Reina, Eli smiled as if he knew shed react this way, then led her to the tea table.

Ellie, stand up and say hello.

As he talked to his four-year-old sister, his tone of voice changed compared to when hed talk to Reina.

Standing up from her seat now, Ellie soon ranor rather waddledover to Eli and clung to his right leg.

Omg Crazy

Just saying shes cute wasnt enough to encapsulate just how cute she was. She was so adorable as she hid behind her older brothers legs while mumbling something.

Ellie, say hello.

With dark gray hair that was close to black, Ellies hair was tied up in two pigtails. Even at Elis urging, she only clutched his pants tightly and further hid behind him.

Shes a bit shy, Noona.

The same time he said this, Ellies plump little cheeks popped out slightly as she peeked up at her.

Ppa-bam

Whoa.

Ppa-bam, huh. She went ppa-bam!

So cute! She went ppa-bam?! You heard that too, right, Eli? That adorable sound effect, you heard, right? Right? I heard ppa-bam just now a sound effect definitely went off!

Giving her a small smile in response, Eli shook his head slightly as he watched the young woman beside him become an Ellie-holic in real time.

Indeed, youd wonder who could have heard the sound effect shes talking about. Its something that only Reinas ears could hear.

Come, Ellie.

Eventually, Eli reached down to carry his younger sister, who only kept hiding behind him until now. She immediately clung to his neck and buried her face on the crook between his neck and shoulders.

Hewwo

Reina smiled brightly at Ellie and picked up a cookie from the tea table.

Can I give this to Ellie?

Yes, of course. Ellie, look over here. Big sister Reina wants to give you a present.

Furtively turning her face slightly to glance at the cookie in Reinas hand, she immediately buried her face in her brothers shoulder again and murmured.

Awmond cookie.

Hm?

Ellie want awmond cookie

She likes almond cookies, Noona.

Ah! Yes, of course! I got it, I got it! Tell me everything you like! Ill get it all for you!

Reina set down the chocolate cookie she was holding and quickly picked up a diamond-shaped almond cookie.

Then, little Ellie reached out with her chubby hand carefully.

This one, right?

Nod, nod.

Ellie, you need to say thank you, right?

Thank yew.

Reinas the one whos thankful. Shes thankful that little Ellies adorable face existed in this world.

Ellie munched on the almond cookie right then, and Eli set her back down in her chair.

Reina went right ahead and sat down next to her.

Omg Weve got a rice cake here, and we also got a mochi now, too.

It felt as if Ellie was an angel who had directly descended from heaven to soothe Reinas sadness about Elis sudden growth spurt.

But were her thoughts obvious? Eli, who had suddenly taken a backseat in Reinas mind, narrowed his eyes.

Hmm Noona. Youve pushed me aside, havent you?

Reinas expression quickly became full of awkwardness as he pointed it out astutely.

Haha No way.

Reina sat up straight and faced Eli again, taking a sip of tea and looking guilty for no reason.

We cant see each other in the academy these days, and you dont contact me very often either.

She kept her eyes averted from him, but she knew that there was a sullen expression on his face even without looking. That strange feeling of guilt kept nudging her conscience.

And you wont even look at me now.

Somehow, his sudden growth spurt just felt overwhelming to her.

I mean, its kinda awkward

You were always so happy to see me before, and you always gave me hugs, but you dont do that anymore.

Umm Its just

He was so bulky now that it would be him wrapping her in his embrace rather than the other way around. How could she initiate a hug with him now?

However, Reina quickly went on to apologize because it felt like hed cry if she said that.

Im sorry. I was too insensitive.

Is it because Ive gotten too big?

If she were to say yes here, what was this strange certainty that hed cut off his legs from the ankles just to lower his height

Did I grow too much?

Do you feel overwhelmed because of my growth spurt?
