"Looks like i win~" [Nana] she's saying this while spinning the car key around her finger and grinning toward me
"guh.. it doesn't matter, I'll win next time!" [Nashi]
"........." [Riku]
"*psst* Yu... Sada, i never know that he's a competitive type" [Riku]
"Yeah, he quite competitive sometimes" [Yuki]
just like this each of us heading toward our home, there's no problem at night, no stalker, no fireball killer, the one that heading the same direction as me are Yuki, Nana, and bad luck charm, of course, Ume heading the same way as me too.
after 15 minutes walk, it's already 7.30, and the three of us reaching our destination, Nana continue walking for a bit... looks like the bad luck charm don't activate it's ability tonight, but still
"..... what are you doing at my house?" [Nashi]
"!?, nothing i just want to play a little bit, ah Yuzu~ you want to play with me right?...eh?"[Riku]
"looks like she's tired of playing the whole day at Yuki house, i hear Aunty bring her to the playground at LL department store" [Ume] when did you hear that? i stay with you all the time, but i never heard something like that..
i changes her clothes, prepare her bed and put her down, so there's only three of us this night then
"as you can see, Yuzu is sleeping right now, just go back already to your house" [Nashi]
"aw~ then i want to play with Ume~" [Riku] she says this while flying toward her, you know Akamine, from the way you say it, you give a vibe that Ume is your second choices
*brug* good job at evading that Ume
" I'm tired, i want to sleep after i take a bath and eat, well... i guess that's okay if big sis want to talk with me for a bit" [Ume]
"right, what movies do you watch tomorrow? Revengers: Endless war?" [Nashi]
"no... it's the continuation, what was it called again.. ah right Beetle-man and the Bee, i never watch the first part, but both Kyoko and Misaki force me to watch this, anyway i can't stay late this night, so sorry big sis" [Ume] she says this and heading toward the bath, yup each one of us really bathe in sweat right now
"....hey, Kamiya want to watch it tomorrow?" [Riku]
"no.. i never watch the first part too, so it's just a waste of money" [Nashi] my personal opinion though
"hee~..........hey this is might come out of nowhere, but where are your parents?" [Riku]
"ah! you don't need to answer it if you don't want" [Riku]
"are you stupid or what? just see that place over there" [Nashi] i pointed the direction where my parent's altar is located
"hee... sorry.. i never sees that" [Riku] (ugh.. stupid girl.. how can i not notice something like this)
".....may i ask what happened?" [Riku] (...... wait that just peeks into his problem right, why i say this, urg!! stupid brain and mouth!)
"Hm? nothing special, a robber came, in the process, he killed both of them, you know, the place where my old man dies? you're standing above it" [Nashi] definitely a lie, both of them died near their room, well Ume and Yuzu room right now
"eh!? sorry, am i supposed not doing that?" [Riku]
"... don't worry, I'm just joking about it, it doesn't matter that much anyway" [Nashi]
"..........." [Riku] (i want to ask what happened after that, but he doesn't seem to want to explain more)
"i don't mind to explain if you're going to ask" [Nashi] i say this while preparing some coffee, right
"oi, do you drink coffee? only an instant one though" [Nashi]
"i actually like tea better" [Riku]
"hm.. i make the coffee then" [Nashi]
"what was the point for you to ask then.." [Riku]
she must be sulking again right now.. while i making the drink, she just stays still on the table, looks like she really wants to ask about what happened after that
after i finish making it, i walk to the table and gives her the drink
"hey... it's a tea, i know you're a nice guy" [Riku]
"hm.. yeah maybe" [Nashi] ....... i feel like a jerk, I'm only nice to her because she's basically a living money maker, from the last week i got how much again? 200.000 from her manager, 290.000 from the first kobold quest ah i forget to split it with those two, 206.615 from tuna incident, 34.800 today, if i calculate it...
"Hey, so what happened?" [Riku]
"ah.. sorry just lost in thought, let see.. nothing special happened, i heard some noises, peeked from that room, and i saw my ma got hit on her head, while my da already laying on the floor, with blood coming out from his head.. maybe since it's dark, but from mini-map i knew my da already dead, anyhow immediately after that Yuzu's crying, from mini-map i knew Ume walked out from her room, maybe that robber saw her and tried to kill her, i reflexly ran out, took a knife, and stabbed him in the back... oh maybe a stomach? i don't remember that much, since i just moved on reflexes, anyhow after i stabbed him, that robber dropped down and just died" [Nashi] ..... actually i stabbed him many times more after he dropped down

"o...oh" [Riku]
"anyway don't bring the parents topic in front of Yuzu and Ume, Ume's pretty sensitive with that topic and it's a bother to explain to Yuzu" [Nashi] after i say this, i took a sip from my coffee, this brand tastes bad.. let's not buy from this brand again
"Ye-yes... urm.. sorry if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the relatives or someone like that took care of you guys?" [Riku]
"oh.. looks like my ma relationship isn't that well with her family, and da doesn't have living relative left, ah from the way ma family says at funeral, looks like she got cut off because marrying my da, anyhow ma big-sis is taking care of us, only on paper though. after she signed the paper , i never see her again until now and that's all" [Nashi] ...... actually if i tries to remember hard , i know ma is still alive, but i somehow just stabbing that man again and again and again..... if only i stop stabbing him and go get some help....
"he... sorry i don't know what to say anymore" [Riku]
"drink your tea then.. I've already made that one for you" [Nashi]
"Oh right... *ouch* " [Riku] she takes a sip, .. ah she's burning her tongue.. it's been quite a while since that tea is done.. so she has a cat tongue huh
" haaah... seriously, wait here I'm going to get some water" [Nashi] ... wait, why would i do that? ah.. whatever I'm already standing.
i walk again to the kitchen and pour some water on the glass, and bring it next to her, after i do this , she says something
"hey,hey Kamiya, look at this" [Riku] she shows her phone to me... to close girl.. i can't even see a damn thing
"so.. want to try this? i wonders if it's true that a man likes to sleep on girl lap" [Riku] .... that only happen if the man likes the woman... and not only that
"rather than sleep on girl lap, I'm one of the types that like it back to back" [Nashi]
"i see back to back huh..." [Riku] oh she's standing, walking to my back and.... huh? ah... she's taking it wrong
"..... you know Akamine, what i mean is I'm the type of man that like it when a girl watch my back, it's a metaphor, a metaphor" [Nashi] yup... i should've used more direct approach when talking with her
"oo...ooh.. i see" [Riku]
"........ mind if you move away? your clothes are wet from your sweat you know" [Nashi]
"If you are disturbed by this, why don't you move away then?" [Riku] (i see.. he may like this too, i actually likes it, the feeling of our back touching each other, even while i don't see him, but i can.......... wait a minute, why am i thinking like that, heck did i just say i like this!?)
"my legs are inside the table, no matter how you look at it, it's better if you're the one that moves away" [Nashi]
"..... i see... so you two flirting around while i was taking a bath.. i see i see, don't need to mind me, just keep continue what you two doing right now" [Ume]
"what are you saying!?, ah you two haven't eaten yet, right? how about i cook for you two while you taking a bath?" [Riku]
"Oh, good idea.. well mind if you move away from my back?" [Nashi]
"ah... sorry, i go the the kitchen then" [Riku] she says this, stands up and go toward the kitchen... she'll be staying until late again huh
after she goes away, i stand up, and heading toward bath, after cleaning myself I'm now bathing inside the tub... that was actually pretty nice, feeling her existence even though i can see her, a somewhat different feeling when i go back to back with Morio or Bando.. like with them i feel safe because i know they are dependable, while with her rather than feeling safe... i feel...nothing.. just feeling her......
"......zzz...." [Nashi]
.......i
"hm...?"
"oi big bro, are you sleeping inside? the food is here" [Ume]
ooh i fell asleep, i finished my bath.. right .. i forgot to bring shirt again.. meh, whatever, i walk topless again to the living room, or that was i planning but Ume already standing in front of the bathroom and give me some shirt, and both of us walking to the living room
"...oi Akamine, why don't you take a bath too? how can it feels good, eating with your clothes wet from sweat?"[Nashi]
"eh!? ... don't need, I'm fine like this, and i don't bring the change clothes too" [Riku]
".... just borrow mine, ah Ume don't eat yet, just wait a while till she's done" [Nashi]
"..... okay then, I'll take a bath, ah can i have some paper bag too? you know about my clothes... ah and Ume please choose some clothes for me...." [Riku]
"ou~ don't worry I'll pick the best clothes from big bro wardrobe for you big sis~" [Ume] she says this while saluting... and don't pick my best clothes again... she'll just ruin it again!
even though i protested in my mind, i don't say it... more like she's already gone and give Akamine my clothes...
"...haaah, hm? when did we buy this?" [Nashi] ............ now that i think about it when she came this morning, she brings some kind of plastic bag?
"...... i see, she's already planning to come over huh" .... but still when did she put it in the refrigerator? I'm making a breakfast, no the bag still there i remember it, after that, we just go studying? ..... so when i was concentrating, she walks away and put some stuff in huh..... oi this is someone house, not yours
"huh? what's that big bro?" [Ume]
"nothing just speaking alone" [Nashi]
"........." [Nashi] a katsudon, with cabbage and hot rice, and she makes quite some too... I'll forgive you this time
"ah.. big sis hurry up and finish your bath i can't stand it anymore" [Ume] yeah me too.
".. how about we take a bite first?" [Nashi]
"...where's our manner, big sis is the one making this you know?, but i still like your idea" [Ume]
after we take the first bite, she comes out, protesting at us, after finish eating i clean the dishes, Ume and Akamine talking, after a while Ume goes to the bed, i take a good luck charm, and taking Akamine home...... yup nothing happened , i know it that a bad luck charm can be repelled with a good luck charm
