Chapter – 71 Sisters Attack.

A week had passed since the Enka Disappearance.

We had entered the second semester of university exams.

During this exam period, we study together every day.

We usually go to the library or coffee shops.

Today, we are at a coffee shop near the university, both of us spreading out our textbooks.

I’m good at specialized subjects such as electromagnetics, digital circuits, and computer theory.

However, I completely suck in law and philosophy, which are compulsory subjects for general education.

Furthermore, I’m not good at Chinese as a second foreign language.

Although I am a science student, I am not good at chemistry either.

I’m also not good at maths subjects (linear algebra, differential, and integral calculus, etc.), which I was good at until high school.

However, Touko-senpai helped me a lot.

She got almost all SS in her freshman year and her freshman year GPA was 3.7, which is quite excellent.

If she can keep up these grades at our university, she can get into most of the companies, can’t she?

“Hey, Yu-kun.
Look at the material over here.
You’ll find how to solve it here.”

She pointed this out when she saw that I was holding back for a long time.

With a dedicated and excellent tutor like this, I managed to get credits in my weakest subjects.

Next week, exams will continue for another week, but this kind of time with her is not so bad.

The most important thing for me is that it is a precious time for me to monopolise Touko-senpai.

If I had made a mistake, I might not have been able to spend this kind of time with her.

I thought back to that moment, and it occurred to me.

***

That next day, Sunday.

I called up Touko-senpai and told her everything.

About the first time I met Enka.

She told me she lost her phone, and when we were looking for it together, she said she felt sick, and when I took care of her in the public toilet, she took that photo of me.

Afterwards, she told me that she broke up with Touko-senpai and asked me to go out with Meika Ishida, using the photo as a story.

And that I met with Meika Ishida twice, just the two of us.

“Jeez……”

Touko-senpai said it disappointedly.

“Do you do that whenever a girl tells you she’s in trouble?”

:… No, I didn’t mean to be strange at..Really.
And when she asked me for my contact info, I didn’t mean to give it to her either.”

“I know that.
That’s what Enka told me too.”

“She did?”

“Yeah.
She said, “At first I was going to ask him for his contact information and go on a date with him without telling me.
I was going to use that as proof of cheating, but when Yu-kun didn’t show any signs of giving me his contact information, I suddenly changed the method.”

“I see.”

I was a little relieved.

“But your behavior is too rash.
To walk into a place like that alone with a girl.
You remember Tetsuya and Karen too, don’t you!”

“….
yes”

“And what I’m most angry about is that “Yu-kun didn’t trust me”.
Why didn’t you tell me about it as soon as it happened?”

I didn’t know what to say to that.

No matter how I said it, I felt like my feelings would not be conveyed to Touko-senpai.

“I’m sorry.
I don’t know what to say.
I felt like Touko-senpai might hate me.”

“I wouldn’t hate you if you were honest with me.”

But then she continued in a low voice.

“That’s right, I might get a little angry.”

“I’m really sorry.”

I bowed my head.

“That’s enough.
This whole thing was caused by my sister, but you have to promise me one thing.”

She then came at me with a swoosh.

“From now on, whenever you meet or go out with a girl alone, you must contact me in advance!”

“Yes.”

“When, where and with whom.
You have to explain to me all.”

“Yes.”

“Of course, if I go out or meet a boy alone, I’ll make sure to tell Yu-kun about it.”

“Understood.”

If this is the extent of the conversation, all the better.

Thus, a rule was established between us.

“Ah, We have to go now.”

Touko-senpai looked at her phone and said so.

I also look at the time on my phone.

It’s 4pm.

“Right, should we leave now?”

I said the same and put my textbooks and notebooks in my bag.

We left the store together and headed for the station.

We are meeting at Funabashi station at 5:30pm, after all.

This was told to me this morning when I was on my way to school with Touko-senpai.

“This evening, Enka wants to apologise to Yu-kun for what happened the other day.
Can you go out with me for that?”

..
Apologies? For realz?.

I looked at Touko-senpai with surprise.

“She’s reflecting on the situation in her own way.
She wants to talk to you about something then.
So I want you to come with me.”

“Well, tomorrow is Saturday and Sunday and there’s no school, so it’s fine.
But is Enka-san’s health OK now?”

She had spent a long time under the winter night sky wearing only a jumper and a sweater, and as expected, she caught a cold.

I heard that she had a fever and was absent from school for about two days.

“Yeah, she’s fine now.
She’s been going to school normally since Wednesday.”

“I see.
I’m glad to hear that.”

I was thinking, “Why don’t you just be a little more mature?” even though I said so with my mouth closed.

But thinking about it, it might be just the right time to meet with that maverick white gal, just after a sick day.

.Today, I’ll be with Touko-senpai, and it won’t be weird.

I thought so and looked at the profile of Touko-senpai.

…… It’s true, Touko-senpai and Enka do look a lot like each other.
……

I remembered how Enka was the other night.

The Enka who was crying in the car surely looked like the Touko-senpai, who was crying in front of Kamokura’s apartment before.

On the train to Funabashi, Touko-senpai said to me.

“After that, I think Enka’s attitude towards me changed a bit.”

“In what way did it change?”

I prayed that it had not changed for the worse.

“Before, she used to be a bit reserved towards me.
Even if she had something to say to me, she seemed to swallow it..”

I remember what she said to me that night.

“It’s still there, but I can see that she’s trying to ‘say it to me’.”

“Is that a good thing?”

I’d like that girl to refrain from it forever if she could.

“Yeah, that’s right.
I don’t want her to be reserved between sisters after all.
I don’t want her to be reserved between sisters.
It would be lonely to be treated like that by your only sister, wouldn’t it?”

‘Oh, is that so?’

As I gave such a curt response, Touko-senpai looked at me.

“Yu, what did you talk about with Enka that night?”

“Eh? ”

I was a bit nervous.

I don’t think I told her anything that would be bad for her to hear.

“I guess we still have a lot of catching up to do.”

She looked at me with a stern stare.

I felt my stomach churn.

We arrived at a cake store in Funabashi.

I had been to this store with Meika before.

And to my surprise.

Not only Enka, but also Meika was there with us.

“Oh, Meika-chan was here too?”

I was nervous when I saw the two of them, but Touko-senpai just looked surprised and said without any hesitation.

“Yes, I think I have done something insincere to you as well, so I came here to apologize for that.”

“You’re very disciplined, aren’t you? I can’t get angry if you say so.”

Touko-senpai said this with a smile and sat down on a chair.

I sat beside her, too.

In front of me was Enka, and in front of her was Meika.

“Well then.”

Enka looked at me and Touko-senpai alternately.

“Isshiki-san, sister.
I’m really sorry about this time.
I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”

Enka bows her head deeply.

“Me too.
I’m sorry to meet Yu-san in secret without your knowledge.”

Meika-chan also bows her head.

“Meika-chan is fine.
I don’t think it’s something you should apologize for.”

Touko-senpai looks at Enka as she says this.

“You have other things you need to apologize for, don’t you? To Yu-kun.”

She looked at him and said, “Yes.
……”

When she answered, she raised her head once with a sullen expression on her face.

“Isshiki-san I am so sorry for trying to trap you.
I apologize again.”

Once again, Enka bows her head deeply to me.

It’s weird to be treated like this by her, who until a few days ago was all bossy.

“Isshiki, I apologize for this as well.
I’m sorry that my sister has caused you a great deal of trouble.
She’s sorry enough, and I hope you’ll forgive her.”

Saying that, even Touko-senpai bows her head to me.

“No, no! It’s outrageous.
I can’t believe you’re apologizing to me! I’m the one who should apologize! In the first place, it’s because of my thoughtless behavior in the first place, it’s my fault for not telling you properly, and I didn’t even tell you that I met with Meika-chan..”

I had always thought that I was quite at fault for this incident.

Even if the reason for this was that “Enka was acting out of line” and “I was afraid of being disliked by Touko-senpai,” I still can’t help but be blamed.

The only thing that really saved me was the fact that she believed that I had no cheating heart at all.

The waitress who came to take our order stood there, not knowing what to do.

Noticing this, Touko-senpai said, Okay, everyone, that’s enough apologies.
Let’s have some cake to mark our reconciliation.
It’s my treat.
and she ordered a cake and stuff.

As expected, I said, “I’ll pay for half,” but she replied, “It’s okay, at least for today.
Don’t worry about it,” she replied.

In the end, all four of us order a rare cheese cake, following Toko-senpai’s example.

The cake was served immediately.

In the meantime, I and Touko-senpai talked about various topics, but aside from Meika-chan, even Enka was quiet.

She responded only when conversed, otherwise, did not try to say anything on her own.

The atmosphere is getting darker and darker.

…… What is this eerie silence?

I was feeling uneasy.

When everyone had finished eating the cake.

“Sister …”

She muttered in a low voice.

“What is it? Enka”

“You’re dating Isshiki-san, right?”

“Of course I am.”

“But from my point of view, it just doesn’t seem that way.”

The expression on Enka’s face when she said this was serious.

The color of her eyes was like that of a cat aiming for its prey.

“Why do you think so?”

“From Isshiki-san’s attitude.
Isshiki-san said, ‘I sympathized with you about one thing.
It was that ‘your sister is too much above me and I can’t feel equal to her.”

“Did you talk about that?”

Touko-senpai looks at me.

“No, no, I didn’t mean that..”

“Even now.
Isshiki-san calls you ‘senpai’ and uses honorifics.
It’s obviously not a conversation between lovers.”

“It varies from person to person.”

“Even though Isshiki-san calls my sister with honorics but calls me ‘You’ but front of sister ‘Enka’ It means Isshiki-san is psychologically closer to me, right?”

What is she trying to say?

I looked alternately at Touko-senpai and Enka.

But both of them are only looking at the other.

“I don’t see you two as lovers.
That’s why I’m making a declaration.
I’m nominating myself for Isshiki-san’s lover!”

“Ghetto?”

The unexpected words caused a strange sound to come out of my throat.

Then Meika-chan, who had been silent until then, opened her mouth as well.

“Me too.
I don’t want to give up on Yuu either.
Besides, to me too, they don’t look like lovers.
I’m also nominating myself for candidacy!”

“Wait, what are you doing?”

I was about to say so when Meika-chan glared at me.

“I heard Yu told En-chan that ‘my feelings are an illusion’! That’s rude! My feelings are not an illusion! I really do love Yuu!”

“No, that’s..
I said, but … more importantly.
The basic premise is that I’m already dating Touko-senpai.
Besides, I’ve told you both how I feel, right?”

“We know that.
That’s why we say we are ” candidating” too.
But no matter how much you say you are in a relationship, I don’t think so when I look at the two of you.”

Enka.

“I’m with opnion as same as En-chan.
Besides, if my feelings are ‘illusions’, aren’t Yu-san’s feelings closer to ‘brainwashing’?”

Meika-chan said.

Today’s Meika-chan is very aggressive not the usual meek-self, and asserts herself very clearly.

Hey, what the hell, here.
You two are absurd.
If Meika-chan wants to be my girlfriend, that’s one thing, but Enka-chan too?

“I’m not going with–.”

“I think it’s fine.”

What interrupted my words was the cool voice of Touko-senpai.

“They’re not saying ‘I’m your lover,’ they’re just saying ‘I’m nominating for lover.”

“Yeah, but I’m..”

“It’s Yu-kun, you who chooses that, isn’t it?”

Then she looks at me with a smile like an angel.

But it’s the smile that scares the hella out of me…

“That’s my sister for you.
I knew you would say that.”

Enka smirked.

“Well then, now that the “apology” and “declaration” are over, we’ll leave you to it.
You two, please enjoy yourselves.”

“Thank you very much.”

They said this and started to get up with their stuff.

Just as I stood up from my chair, Enka turned to me as if she had just remembered.

“Oh, yeah.
I had something else, I wanted to say to Isshiki-san too.”

I braced myself.

I didn’t know what she was going to say, but I’m scared.

“You like virgins, don’t you, Isshiki-san? I’m still a virgin too.
So!That means I’m qualified!”

“Omak, I didn’t do that!”

Enka, what are you doing?

Meika pushed her back with a “thud.

“Let’s go, En-chan!”

“I’ll take that as a yes.”

Enka laughed and left.

We left the cake store late.

Then, Touko-senpai said, “I’m sorry, but could you follow me for a minute?”

“Yes….”

When I replied, she started walking ahead of me.

Oh no, she seems to be angry.
But what happened today is really not my fault.

I think to myself and follow behind her.

The first time I saw her, she was a little nervous.

It’s the Funabashi Grand Shrine.

It was surprisingly close to Funabashi station….

When I was thinking that.

“Hmm, Is it alright around here?”

As Touko-senpai to herself.

She turns to me.

“Um, what is it?”

She approached me with a smile on her face.

“I have something to add to the previous rule.”

Then she came so close that she was almost touching me.

The scent of Touko-senpai’s hair flowed into my nostrils and I could feel her breath on my face.

She gently cupped my cheek between her hands.

“Stop calling me ‘senpai’ from now….”

“Yes, sir.”

“And stop using honorifics.
It’s too formal.”

“Ha, ha.
But that may not change right away.”

“It doesn’t have to be right away.
But try to change it little by little.”

“Yes.”

“And …….”

She suddenly pinched me on both cheeks.

“You have to take the Punishment!”

“Yeass”

“This is for not telling me about what you did with Enka.”

She then put more force into her right hand, which she was pinching.

“Yikes.”

“This is for keeping it a secret that you were seeing Meika.”

This time, the power is put into the left hand.

“Imfowyy”

I thought I said ‘I’m sorry,’, but did I convey it properly?

Then she took her pinched fingers away, and I thought she had her palms between both of my cheeks again.

She kissed me as it was.

In the winter sunset, in the quietness of a vacant space in a bustling city.

I kissed her on the lips for the first time.

I unconsciously put my hands around her body and embraced her.

I wonder how long we stayed like that.

After a while, we both pulled our faces away from each other.

I looked at her face up close, and saw that it was slightly moist and had a sultry look in her eyes.

“This makes me the last person Yu-kun kissed, right?”

I can feel her hot breath.

“Yes.”

“If you kiss someone else after this, I won’t forgive you!”

She muttered with even more sultry eyes and a blush on her cheeks.

“Yes.”

I put my arms around her and pressed my lips on hers again.

 

Tl Notes~

 

And that’s the end of ARC 2, this arc was little too Dramawish but it’s all good when the end is well.

 

It also, brought Yuu and Touko lot closer then before as well as Creating strong bond betweem them.
In my oponion, This was necesary drama to Drag, bc Yuu is Typical japanese with little confidence, Unless guided he wouldn’t take a step.

 

Although, Touko has a strong personality, She wouldn’t not push her oponion on Yuu, bc she’s respects one’s privacy/Thoughts.
In the end Author had to involve 3rd Character.

 

We also see, Meika’s growth, As well as Enka, Who always felt inferior to Touko.
She somewhat almost overcome her Wall and Begins a new start with her Sister.
There’s lot more then what it looks if you look closely in the story.
I was kinda little dissaponted at the middle.
and almost dropped but continued anyway, Thinking, Since i’ve all the here, Why not go for a few more chapters.
and in the end i’m happy i didn’t drop.
(I would have been more happy, If that Author showed Karen b***h and Kamokura’s suffering, .)

 

That’s my opinion of the ARC2, How about you?

 

And will i be Continue Translating? Yes There’s 5 Side stories left to translate yet, And in future if the Author continues further, I will.
