I did 11 pages for TsukiTsuki earlier and I got through them way faster than these two pages, sigh...
…Still, they’re cute.
Not the appearance alone, but their aura and casual behaviour made him excited. Specially Mio, who apparently was also a first year in high school just like Basara, albeit with a later birthday. In other words, right now, where their parents hadn’t remarried yet, she simply was a girl of the same age as him. Of course that accelerated his heartbeat. Then,
“---But, I’m glad that you’re a nice person, Basara-san.”
Maria, sitting diagonally opposite to him, faced him and laughed with “Ehehe”. She looked very young for a girl only one year younger than Basara and Mio and in her third year of middle school. Her cuteness stimulated a boy’s protection instincts gravely.
“As a boy of your age, I was worried about what to do when you were a guy sharp like a knife.”
“Ha, Haha…”
An age where you were sharp like a knife, just what kind of age was that? The one of a national reaction entertainer? [Note: Tetsurō Degawa is a reaction entertainer and says that he was a ‘sharp knife’ in his youth.]
“No need to worry. I mean, he seems to fancy a cute little sister.”
“Seems so. I mean, he came into the toilet occupied by a girl.”
On Jin’s light joke, Mio in front sent off a cold glare.
“I said, that was a misunderstanding, an accident. How often do---”
“Hmp, still making excuses?”
When Basara declared with a sigh, Mio bended slightly forward.
15/21 Pages.A distance that made his heart skip a beat unmeant. She looked at him with superb upturned eyes that emphasised their height difference.
“…..I’m sorry.”
So weak. When Basara, unable to endure her destructive force, apologized, Mio nodded “Mm, I forgive you” satisfied and finally brightened up her expression. Basara made a sigh of relief.
“Oh right…ehm, excuse me, there’s something I want to ask.”
There Basara suddenly spoke out a simple question.
“Where’s your mother? Will she come later?”
The prospect of getting a little sister, and even two this cute ones, had surprised him.
But well. Jin never had said that it would only be one.
However, their mother, who Jin was going to marry, was absent, which made this meeting pointless.
“Yeah, reminds me, I didn’t tell you…”
Jin said.
“Their mother--- Chihaya-san is currently overseas for her work.”
“……………Huh?”
Wait a moment. What did his father said just now? As bad as it sounded, the marriage partner was currently overseas?
“…. Aw… Dad, lend me your ear for a sec.”
