Children Reason (6 page)

"I……….. kinda hate the city."

"I see. but since you’re already here there’s no choice you gotta cope with it"

Hiyori who was taking a cute sunshade without a single  perspiration on her, said with a flawless pokerface.

So this is the severe test of the city huh….. This sentence that had already appeared four or five times in my brain today just appeared again.

Still, since I had determined to live a happy city life with Hiyori, how can Hiyori turn back to look at me just because I say discouragements about these things, if I give up now I’m afraid I can’t even go back alive.

That’s right, forget those negative thoughts. From the moment when this big door opens our unforgettable life together will be about to began.

That’s right, later on in the 2 week’s time, if I still cannot get Hiyori to turn her head at me, there won’t be a second chance for me anymore.

Not only that, my remaining long life will be all wasted by the useless exploration of India tradition. 

About this I really need to avoid it.

I have to use up all my ideas to catch her heart during the stay, in the future she’ll be my bride, then we’ll live our life at India together as monks.

Just that only.

"Uhm~ Excuse~ me"

While I was drowned in my lame imagination, Hiyori started to call the interphone without caring anything.

"No, you don’t need to press a lot of times…….."

"Eh? That’s because no one comes to open the door. There isn’t any choice right. Hell~lllooo!"

Stubbornly ringing the doorbell without stopping, she looked exactly like a Yakuza who came to claim debt. 

If it is such a small and cute Yakuza comes to claim debt, I’d totally want her to look for  my house. Then, if can I’d like her to claim me away.

"Hey, hey Hiyori, did he went out or something?"

"Impossible. Unlike you, he wouldn’t mess up the date and time we’ve promised."

"No, I’m not saying that………"

Hiyori kinda ignored my advice and kept on furiously calling, at that moment the opposite of the door came an unlocking sound.

"Ah. I knew that he’s in isn’t he. Speaking of it it’s been a long time since I ever met brother-in-law."

"U-uwahh….. I suddenly feel nervous"

After all it was going to be the first time meeting up with my possibly-future-brother-in-law.

And of course my heart started to pump loudly. I have to give an awesome look as good as possible.

I straightened up my body, even the tip of my toes were infused with power i waited for the door to open for around 30 seconds. 

I could still hear unlocking sounds from the door, but the door didn’t seem to open at all.

"……………….What’s going on"

The power in my body was slowly reaching the limit, as a result because of the side effect my body started to shiver.

Don’t know because the power infused into my face or not, when Hiyori who was standing beside me looked at me she gave a surprised look as if she wanted to say “uwahh…..”, I saw this scene with peripheral vision.

Patience, be patience. Don’t give brother-in-law a bad impression. MUST STAY AWESOME TO MEET HIM.

"Ka-cha" as the carefree sound came by, the door slowly opened.

"Huh. I don’t know what’s going on but the door finally opened. Seriously brother-in-law what’s up with you……….."

Behind the ajar door, there stood a white-haired teenager with perspiration on his forehead as if he had achieved something, he gave a happy look.

His looks looked younger than I heard of.

I remembered that the difference of age between Hiyori and her sister was suppose  to be quite an amount. If that’s the case, if the guy in front is her brother-in-law means that it was a pretty distanced-aged marriage.

"S-sorry. I didn’t know how to unlock….."

Didn’t know how to unlock? whatthehell? Was that something a person who lived here for a long time will say.

Questions started to appear in my brain one by one. No, nonowait. Stop thinking about that. 

What if he’s really Hiyori’s brother-in-law?

If I use a rude attitude towards him it might affect my future.

"Y-your brother-in-law is really young, Hiyori….."

I smiled and looked at Hiyori, but I saw Hiyori made a face that I had never seen before.

Her eyes were glowing like small diamonds, and her cheeks were red like being dyed by plum pigment.

"SO COOL……"

With what Hiyori said and the envy gaze she made, it was obviously towards the white-haired guy.

"w-wwwwhhhHHHYYYY HIYORI?! EH? SAYING HE IS COOL?! B-BUT ISN’T HE YOUR BROTHER-IN-LAW?!!!"

Facing my question, she shook her head without leaving her sight at the guy.

"Nope. First time seeing this guy. SO GREAT……….."

PA-CHA, I heard a ceramic furnisher dropping down, breaking into pieces. Long time no see those Asahina mad fans who were buried by Hiyori’s own hands, after a long time they once again came down from the sky naked and wanted to bring me away. what the hell is the problem now. 

This is definitely Hiyori’s sister’s house.

Then why, is there someone Hiyori had never meet before in the house?  No, This guy totally looks suspicious.

Or to say he IS.

Anyway, if I don’t quickly eliminate him in front of Hiyori……!

"I-I say who are you! This is Hiyori’s brother-in-law’s house isn’t it?! Why are you here?!"

Being roughly questioned, the guy just made a confused look.

A tall long body with good looks, the more I looked the more it pissed me off.

"Eh? Hiyori is…….. ah, teacher had once mentioned."

The guy made an understood look, and walked toward Hiyori from the entrance without his shoes on.

"Nice to meet you. My name is….. uhm, I think it’s Konoha."

"Ehhhh….. oh my, what to do…..! Ah, nice to meet you! I’m Asahina Hiyori, teacher…….. are you saying that you are my brother-in-law’s student?"

"Eh? Hmmmermm…… you can say that"

"I knew it! So you have been staying in the house watching the door all the time? Looks like brother-in-law is really busy………"

"Yea, since you are here then come in"

No, wait. Why did it turn into a happy atmosphere so fast. After talking to the guy named Konoha, as if she had met her prince charming, Hiyori’s face once again shone.

And I’m afraid that in her eyes,  I don’t even exist anymore.

gutsugutsu, my heart boiled because of anger and boiling sounds echoed in my head.

"A-about that Hiyori. Isn’t he suspicious~……. I feel that everything he said are all fake….."

"Huh??!! Watcha’ saying??!! There’s no reason for such a hot guy to lie to us right?! Are you stupid?!!"

"Eeekk…!"

Every single word from Hiyori pierced into my heart. I was totally defeated by her ultimate capricious theory.

Before that pressured attack, my old theory defences all became useless, nothing could help but to just shrink into a small lump.

"Nee, Konoha. Ignore this boy here, let’s go in kay?"

"Eh? No, I was also told to kindly welcome this boy here."

As he said the guy again, this time he walked towards me.

"Uhm I’m Konoha. that, best regards?"

"……….I’m Amamiya Hibiya. yoroshiku……!!"

I tried my best to refrain furiously mad flame of jealousy from my chest, and used up all the effort to say these two basic lines.

"Wow~ this is great Hibiya. He greeted you with such a friendly manner! Then, let’s go in kay? Right Konoha!"

"Ah, yea"

Without faking, I glared at Konoha who his back was pushed by Hiyori and walked into the house.

what’s with this dude?

Calling Hiyori’s brother-in-law as “teacher”, also been told to welcome us into the house, I guess he was a student or something after all.

No, even if it’s that.

Now the important thing is to get rid of this guy from the house ASAP, then figure a way to make Hiyori’s eyes turn at me.

I pointed the middle finger towards the Asahina mad fans who were teasing me in the air, then I went into the house, and slammed the door using backhand.

CHILDREN RECORD PART TWO

(translated by
Diagonal
)

In the room echoed tick-tocking sounds of the clock.

The time, was  almost 9 pm.

Bulbs were hanged everywhere on the bald ceiling, creating a perfect living space that wasn’t over-bright.

In the kitchen stood Kido who was deftly washing 6 person’s dinnerware for a few minutes. A mountain of dinnerware was neatly stacked in the cupboard.

At the opposite of the sofa which the table was placed between them, Konoha who just finish his meal had a fight with his eyelids, drowsily as he was gonna sleep, he even said “nopenope” and continue his combat to open his eyes.

"nnnnyyaa…… can’t eat anymore……… ah, can’t eat enimurr………"

While at my left side, my pathetic lil sis slobbered while she was deep in her sleep with a happy face on her.

…………. wait a sec. whattheheck are we doing. are they children. or is it Kido  remarkably looked like a “mother”.

seriously, I don’t know when did this totally felt like a sleepover at some friend’s house.

This morning I even frowned and said  those Mekakushidan people “Who are these people? So suspicious”, but after only a day I can already get along with them.

Even me who hadn’t been talking to someone for a while, can even get along with them easily, these people can be really friendly at this kind of standard.

"She even eating in her dream wow that’s really lil sis…… but speaking of it she immediately slept just after her meal, whatisthemeaningofthis master"

"Just ignore her. I think she’ll become some sort of cow?"

Maybe because she was pretty tired, after finishing her meal Momo slept just within a few minutes.

"She was even so angry when she was called fat, what’s wrong with this kid here………"

I’m afraid that she herself had completely forgotten  that. It’s  been a while since the moment she noticed that even if to think “I haven’t even marry yet you’re too exaggerating…….”, it’s still useless.

"Ah, it isn’t that bad. Perhaps she’s too tired. Hey Kisaragi, wake up. If you wanna sleep come to my room."

After washing the dishes Kido took off her apron that had a “
技
” in front which gave a carpenter feel, and walked towards towards Momo.

She gently knocked Momo’s face, but Momo only said “Ehh~, surprisingly still can eat…….”, and continued her happy feast in her dream.

"Ah~ sorry. Once this girl sleeps she’ll never wake up till the day comes. Just ignore her she’ll be okay"

"Still it isn’t good. No choice I have to carry her…. Hmm!?"

Just when Kido wanted to carry Momo, her expression slightly twisted as she didn’t expect something.

"S-surprisingly…… much from Kisaragi…….!"

Kido tried to carry Momo, but compared to how she can easily carry Hibiya, her breathe became rapid.

Speaking of that I once read Momo’s profile that was uploaded in the idol dictionary, there wrote her “weight” which couldn’t refrain me from laughing at the moment.

 
Seeing how Kido breathlessly carried Momo and moved forward, this time it was Konoha on the sofa snoring.

This dude is pretty unbelievable. From his dumbfounded look, it’s really hard to understand what is he thinking.

He’s now in someone’s house who he met for the first time yet he take no caution, and just slept soundly like that.

………………….. pretty much like a child who immediately grew big.

From Hibiya’s behaviour, these two people seemed to be involved in some complicated “incident”.

No, not just these people, Ene too, Mekakushidan too, have something happened to them that was unexplained too.

I kinda forgot about it, but when I looked at Ene’s face back then I remembered, that this girl might also had something that happened in her past. Even hiding such a special identity, it is pretty incredible.

"Just before I came here, what on earth happened to this girl" Not  that I’ve never considered things like that, but even if I question her, she’ll just hesitatingly fudge over it.

Suddenly, when I slowly looked at my phone screen, Ene who couldn’t know my thoughts, was excitingly preparing a blanket.

"………………………What are you doing" 

"Eh? what I’m preparing to sleep"

"Ah, aahh I see"

I remembered Ene once boasted saying “I am highly powered so I’ve no problem even if I don’t sleep at all!”…………………

Fine, if I insult her it’d be troublesome, it’s best to just ignore her.

"Huu, sorry for waiting"

Along the closing sound of the door, Kido said while turning her shoulders.

"Speaking of it, it’ll be better if she can slightly reduce her appetite."

"Haha, I’m really sorry. for disturbing you all these days"

"No, it’s all our doings. Please don’t mind. but today………… this situation is totally done"

Kido murmured as she looked surprised, and sat on the sofa opposite me.
