I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo-Chapter 656: Fatamorgana 1
Chapter 656: Fatamorgana 1
“Onee-chan, where are we?” Aki Shiina asked his big sister helplessly.
“You-You don’t need to worry! Leave everything to your big sister! I will lead you to your dorm!”
Aki looked at his big sister for a moment, hesitating, before he let out a long sigh since he didn’t know where he was. He knew that from the beginning, he should be the one who led his big sister to the Sunoharasou, so they wouldn’t waste their time.
However, his big sister was too forceful and told him to leave everything to her.
It was like how she decided to transfer to Tokyo, so they could live together. She told him to move with him without hesitation.
Being asked that, Aki couldn’t reject his big sister and only nodded since he knew that he couldn’t fight his older sister. Yet deep inside, he also wanted someone to take him away.
‘But…’
He also didn’t want to go away from Sunoharasou. He wasn’t sure why, but this was his feeling that made him far more than comfortable.
No, it was uncomfortable!
He wasn’t sure how to explain this feeling with his limited vocabulary. However, he felt like something that should be destined for him should be gotten by him and should be for him slowly vanished like a morning mist. He could feel it since it was in his surroundings, but as he tried to touch them, they disappeared, and like a morning mist, as the sun grew higher, it disappeared, and nothing remained.
When he woke up, he realized that everyone was just an illusion.
This was something that he couldn’t accept for a while, and it made him depressed for the entire summer.
Yet even if it was only small, he still had hope. He hoped for Ayaka to call him during the summer to ask how he was doing. This hope might be small, like a spark, but the more he thought, the bigger it grew, almost burning his body. He felt that he was haunted, wondering what Ayaka was doing.
Naturally, this was impossible to hide from his big sister.
“What’s wrong with you? Did someone bully you? If so, then tell me, and I will beat them up for you.”
“No, no. No one is bullying me. I am okay.”
While Aki wasn’t someone that was bullied, his expression said otherwise. Yet it was true since he had never been bullied. Instead, he just had a broken heart. It was his first time feeling something like this, so he didn’t really know how to explain this feeling.
“So what’s wrong?”
However, his big sister couldn’t accept such an explanation, urging him to explain what was happening. Unlike the others, she didn’t want Aki to move to Tokyo and live on his own. If possible, she wanted him to stay with her all the time, be spoiled and stay cute all the time.
Yet when her little brother returned, he was far from cute.
If it was before, Aki always had this flustered expression that made people want to tease him. His appearance was also good and was quite feminine, which was cute, and he sometimes misunderstood him as a girl.
She also often dressed him like a girl because of how cute he was, and she even had ten photo collections filled with Aki in a girl’s costume.
This was also why Aki decided to move to Tokyo since he didn’t want to be mistaken as a girl anymore. However, living as a man was harder than he had imagined. Watching the woman that he loved with someone laughing, smiling, and showing love to each other was tough.
While Aki wanted to hide everything, his big sister stayed and urged him for the past summer vacation. In his sleep, bath, dinner, toilet, all the time, she had never left him and kept asking him why he was sad.
Her presence calmed him down, but he had to say it was quite annoying.
Still, with his weak personality, he finally talked about what had happened.
Instantly, she knew what had happened, and she was speechless since she didn’t expect her little brother to fall in love with someone. Unfortunately, his love wasn’t appreciated, and that person already had a lover.
“You’re in love.”
“Eh?” Aki was dumbfounded.
“Have you confessed to her?
“No, no! It’s impossible, right? She-She has a boyfriend…” He became depressed once again, but soon, he became spirited.
Yes, he didn’t confess!
If he confesses, would something change?
Suddenly, the fire in his body didn’t burn his body painfully anymore. Instead, it lit the spirit on his body. It made him so excited that he wanted to go to Tokyo right away since he realized that he might have hope!
He was like someone who had been trapped in the desert for so long and finally saw an oasis. He wanted to jump into the water and drink all he could to satisfy his thirst.
However, his big sister was far from happy!
While she felt happy that her little brother had regained his spirit, this was different from what she imagined.
Also, she was afraid that the woman that confessed to Aki would really agree to his confession!
By so, she wouldn’t be able to monopolize him anymore!
As for being rejected, she didn’t think about that possibility at all since she knew how cute Aki was.
Aki was like an angel that was born from this world. He was cute. He was simply an angel.
Naturally, this was only her opinion.
Some might have a similar opinion, but many would doubt it.
As for whether the woman that had made Aki fall in had a boyfriend or not, she didn’t think it was a problem since she had read many romance books and shoujo manga. She also watched many romance tv dramas and movies.
She might not have experience in love, but she felt her knowledge was better than that of a love master.
“No, you can’t.”
“Eh?”
“You can’t! You can’t! You can’t! I won’t allow you to confess to her!”
“EHHHHH?!”
Aki was dumbfounded when he saw his big sister suddenly throw a tantrum. She rolled around on the ground and waved her hand, legs, and head like a child who begged her parents to buy her a toy.
Her eyes were red and teary, and she screamed as loud as she could, causing Aki and her parents to be dumbfounded.
Aki was helpless, but the parents were confused, wondering what was happening.
Still, while she threw a tantrum, she kept thinking about how to stop Aki. She kept thinking until she suddenly stopped since she had a good idea.
“….what’s wrong?”
“Are you okay?”
“Onee-chan?”
Aki and the parents wondered whether she had hit her head. They felt worried and wanted to check on her, but she suddenly stood up.
However, Aki was so close that when she raised her body, their foreheads knocked against each other.
“It hurts!” 2x
They covered their foreheads with teary eyes.
“…….” Parents.
“Why did you stand there?”
“Ah, sorry! Sorry!”
“That’s not it!” She suddenly stood up, looking at her parents with a cute expression.
“…….” Parents.
“Mom. Dad. Aki is still a child. He needs someone to stay with him all the time, or else he might be hurt in Tokyo. You can see how depressed he was before, right? If it isn’t because of me, he will stay depressed even if he returns to Tokyo. However, if I am there, it is different.”
“What do you want to say?”
“I want to go to Tokyo too! We’ll live together there!”
“…….” Parents.
Aki was dumbfounded and opened his eyes wide.
“Eh?! Eh?! EHHHHHH?!”
While it was so sudden, his parents also could see how depressed Aki was. They were also worried, wondering what was happening, but it was hard for them to ask him, so they left to their daughter, who was also Aki’s big sister. When they saw that he was alright, they also felt happy, but then, they knew that he would return to Tokyo.
Ayaka might be able to help with Aki’s food and place to stay, but it was a different matter with the heart since they also had heard that their son was heartbroken.
Unlike their daughter’s confidence, they knew that love wasn’t so simple, and in case that Aki was rejected…
They looked at their daughter, who still maintained a cute and well-behaved expression.
“Okay.” 2x
“Yay!”
“……” Aki.
Aki couldn’t say anything, and he was in a daze. Everything happened so fast, and his big sister decided to move to Tokyo and also forced him to stay with her since she didn’t want him to stay in the dorm anymore.
His parents also agreed since it was better for the two siblings to stay together. Their family also lived close by, and they could ask them to check on their two children.
However, Aki hardly felt happy and felt quite complex by this change. He thought that he had a chance with Ayaka since, as long as he confessed, everything might change. As long as he told her the feeling inside his heart, they might become lovers.
If he stayed on the Sunoharasou, he might be able to do something that a lover could do there.
Yet suddenly, he had to move in with his big sister, and he had no way to say “no” in this matter since he also knew that his parents were worried about his big sister. While his big sister seemed reliable, she was quite childish, and something might happen to her.
However, he was also far from mature.
If the two of them had stayed together, they might create a more chaotic situation, yet it was like a storm when the feeling everyone was strong, no one dared to say no, and everyone was forced by the atmosphere toward their destination.
In the end, his big sister moved to Tokyo, and they decided to live together.
Aki knew it was his last chance to confess to Ayaka since he might not be able to meet her anymore if he lived in a different place. It was his last chance, and it was impossible for him to waste this chance.
Yet unexpectedly, when they were about to go to Sunoharasou, they were lost.
“Leave everything to your big sister!”
When they arrived in Tokyo, his big sister told him that she was the one who tried to lead him to Sunoharasou. Yet, unfortunately, they got lost along the way and didn’t know where to go.
Aki was also unfamiliar with the place, and he didn’t know where he was since he was still unfamiliar with Tokyo. What was even worse, they had been walking for a few hours without seeing their destination.
“Onee-chan…”
“It’s… it’s okay. Leave it to me.”
“………”
When they were about to fall into despair, the voice of an angel suddenly descended.
“Aki, is that you?”
“Eh? Shishio-nii?”
Aki was in a daze and realized this wasn’t an angel but a devil.
