Episode 173. At Yuri’s sister’s house (6)
White noona went like that, and we ate while trying to create a bright atmosphere.
But it was quieter than before, probably because we were talking amicably among ourselves.
It was the same as touching me.
“Oh, wait.”
When Kahi noona called, she went to the hallway to answer the call.
I heard my parents calling from afar.
“It is very late. The older sisters have to go back soon.”
“Yeah, I just got a text message from my older sister.”
It seems that my parents are worried about my older sister as well.
Well, it’s natural for her to be worried if her daughter, a high school girl, doesn’t come home late at night even though she went out to play.
“Then go in first. Kahi noona also seems to have to leave.”
I couldn’t see Kahi noona’s face, but when I heard her voice from afar, she seemed to be at a loss.
“Can we sleep over at a friend’s house?”
“Ah, Tae, you are not with Taeyang!!”
“Ah, Dad~!”
I should just send it when I get back from the call.
Otherwise, my image will only get worse.
“Taeyang, can you take your sister home?”
“Huh?”
“It might be dangerous because it’s dark.”
The older sister in the lead suggested it with a smile.
Well, that’s manners.
Since I’m leaving right away, I’ll have to wash the dishes.
Just in time, Kahi noona returned from the hallway at the entrance.
“Ah, sorry guys, I think I need to go soon.”
“Yes, I know. I’ll take you.”
“Really?”
Gahi noona, who was at least comforted, stroked my hair as I sat there with a moved face.
“Thank you Taeyang.”
“It’s dark, so let’s go quickly.”

After sending the older sisters away, I returned to Yuri’s older sister’s house.
Now I need to sort things out.
I was dipping the dishes in the sink and putting on her rubber gloves when Yu-ri came and dried them.
“Taeyang, you went through a lot today, so leave it to your noona now.”
“It’s okay, it’s not that much. My sister should go and get some rest.”
I owe you two days at home.
Perhaps the favor was burdensome, Yuri noona was watching her next to her, so I asked a sneak peek.
“Then can you help me a bit?”
“Yes, go, do it together.”
There was no such thing as common dishwashing, but when I washed the dishes with dish soap, Yuri noona rinsed them with water.
As she worked while handing her plates one by one, Yu-Ri noona started talking to her.
“Because of this, they are like a married couple.”
“The couple…… “
“Huh? Sun.”
“What kind of couple are friends?”
“We can be friends too~”
And then, she was Yuri noona who quietly came closer to me.
Isn’t this how you gradually become aware?
No, if you look at it, wouldn’t she already be aware of it?
When I glanced at Yuri noona, Yuri noona looked at me happily and smiled.
“Do you still want to see my sister?”
“Oh, no.”
Let’s finish washing the dishes first.
Even after that, I could feel Yu-Ri noona’s gaze subtly.
“Why are you staring at Yuri-noona like that?”
“…… There you are.”
She started with those words. There was something in Yuri’s older sister’s voice that was smiling but not laughing.
She seemed to want to talk about something important.
By any chance, would you like to confess to me now?
How should I accept it if Yu-Ri noona confesses again like when she was with Juyeon noona?
Unlike the other older sisters, Yuri has to be careful. She
Even if she doesn’t hurt me or anyone else, she can be abusive to herself.
No matter how much psychological counseling improves the condition, it cannot be said that the Menhera attribute has completely disappeared.
While she was seriously thinking about how to answer in her head, Yuri noona finally opened her mouth.
“That… I mean white.”
“White sister?”
I was taken aback by the sudden word, but I also felt shaky.
“Could it be because of the fight?”
“Yes.”
When she thought about it again, she felt bad, but she couldn’t be angry with Yuri noona, who worried about her.
I said calmly.
“It’s a sibling affair, so don’t worry too much about it. I’ll apologize for causing such a nuisance at your sister’s house today.”
“Oh, that’s not it… What a waste.”
Sister Yuri said she glanced at me one more time and then looked away from her.
“I just wondered if Taeyang didn’t notice White’s heart.”
“A white sister’s heart?”
Anything to notice?
From noble mtl dot com
I thought about it for a while.
All I can understand is that the atmosphere around my sister has become chaotic because her friends like me.
Even if we’re on good terms, if we sometimes see quarrels over me or jealousy, it’s not strange if we fall apart at any time.
So I wonder if she’s mad at her for doing this to her friends.
If at first he thought of his younger brother and was worried that I might get hurt, now he might feel like giving up because he has created a lot of things that need to be sorted out.
But Yuri noona seemed different.
“Isn’t that actually why White is complaining about being lonely?”
“What? My older sister?”
What is there to be lonely about?
She rather acted as if she had told her younger sister not to come home.
I didn’t understand.
While I was organizing my thoughts in my head for a while, the dishes were finished.
“Taeyang, why don’t you take a shower and go get some ice cream with your sister?”
“Okay, I’ll wash first.”
Sister Yuri smiled and nodded her head.
“You can’t steal it this time either. Then I will leave the house.”
“Ugh… Who, who stole it… “
“Don’t you remember what happened yesterday?”
“…… But wouldn’t it change if I saw it one more time?”
“I will go home too.”
“Sorry!! It was a joke!!”
With that uneasy feeling, she accepted Yuri’s sister-in-law’s promise not to peek this time and went into her shower room.
————
After taking a shower, I waited for Yuri noona to wash up.
Meanwhile, she sat on the sofa in the quiet living room.
“There is no television.”
Maybe that’s why it was even quieter inside the house.
From long ago, Yuri noona lived alone in a house like this, with no one around.
She’s probably been living alone ever since her mother died.
She hadn’t known anyone at school, and hardly any relatives or acquaintances.
Grass Leaf Middle School and Grass Flower High School are well connected, and at least the teachers take care of the situation and help.
It’s a setting I already knew from the game, but I understood the reason Yuri noona became a Menhera character again.
“Whoa~ It’s hard to go out strong if you only think of this kind of story.”
I quickly forgave him for coming up on the bed in my room without permission.
Just, Yuri noona wanted to do that.
Well, I’m afraid that I’ll end up with a yandere character who’s an extreme menhera when I say I won’t forgive him.
“Whoa~”
“Did you wash everything?”
“Yeah~”
Without much thought, I turned my head and returned to the original direction.
“Why, you’re not wearing anything!”
“Yeah… Is it a house?”
“I am here! There is a man in the house!”
“It’s okay. Sister doesn’t matter Wherever Taeyang looks.”
“I care!”
“Huh? Taeyang, your face is red. Do you have a fever? Have you been in hot water too long?”
“Don’t come close!”
“Eh?”
“…… It’s embarrassing, so wear clothes!”
“Ah… hahahaha, I see.”
Seriously, White noona and Yuri noona are too defenseless.
I can’t believe the white older sister…… Aren’t you naked like this even when other guys come home?
I felt embarrassed for no reason, but I quickly shook my head.
“What do you know? I have another boyfriend, so whether I show it or not.”
It’s a story that doesn’t matter because it’s a ‘younger brother’.
After cooling her face for a moment, Yuri noona changed into her street clothes and came out.
“Is it that outfit again?”
“What’s wrong?”
Wouldn’t everyone stare at you if you went around town wearing that in the middle of the night?
Well, I’m sure no one will see it. Besides, maybe the people in this town are used to it.
“It’s okay. Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Shall we say Menhera’s fashion? She nodded as she looked at Yuri noona wearing a pink shirt with a frill and a black skirt.
“Hey, clothes… Can you give me an honest evaluation?”
“This is a new purchase.”
“Yes, I was really excited to show it to Taeyang.”
Actually, in terms of Menhera fashion, I wonder what the difference is with other clothes.
More than that, is it okay for Yuri noona to keep buying things like this?
“Yuri noona, are you working?”
Unsurprisingly, Yuri noona shook her head.
I know.
The fact that most of Yuri’s sister’s wealth is her mother’s and her death insurance money.
Because of Yuri noona’s personality, she wouldn’t even be able to work part-time.
“Where does the money come from?”
“That…… With the property you left behind.”
“Are you saving money properly?”
“Huh? Ah… that is… ha ha ha.”
“Don’t try to pass it off with a laugh.”
“Ugh…… “
There’s no way you can save money.
Because when Yuri’s sister graduated from high school, she tried to commit suicide.
The nagging she heard from her mother before she died.
With the words ‘go to school’, the purpose of life became to graduate from school as per the will.
Instead, on the condition that she die after graduating from school, she spends her fortune with no one to pass it on anyway.
Mainly Menhera fashion clothes, accessories, and pink character phrases.
Well, Yuri noona doesn’t seem to be able to waste a lot of money due to her personality.
“It’s better to save it for the future.”
“Because the motto is to enjoy the present.”
I can’t.
Leave this sister as it is, she really doesn’t have an answer after graduating, so if she commits suicide, I can’t stand my spirit.
At least the suicide plan should be thwarted.
“I can’t. Next time, let’s go to the bank with me and raise the deposit first.”
“Huh?”
“Besides that, there are many other banking products. Even if you don’t have a guardian, you just need proof documents.”
I don’t know if that’s true.
Yuri noona is underage, so she must have a lot of restrictions.
However, if possible, I would like to be forced to sign up for a banking product with the words ‘dream, future, hope’ in it.
So you can dream of the future.
“Taeyang, you don’t have to be so serious.”
“This is a request as a best friend.”
“I… best friend.”
As expected, I thought I would be shaken.
“Your friend is so worried about you, will you continue to do so?”
Looking at her sincere expression, Sister Yuri nodded her head as her eyes fluttered.
“If Taeyang talks that far… Huh! Okay. I’ll try putting it in.”
……… It’s good that you listen to me…
I’m afraid that this sister will be scammed later.
Isn’t that too naive?
“Oh, shall we go sooner than that? I think the ice cream shop is closing.”
“… Uh? It’s already time to go to sleep.”
“Ugh… “
“Because there is an unmanned ice cream store. You can go there.”
“Ugh… I was going to share peanut butter flavor with Taeyang.”
Sister, are you still trying to buy it at the deadline?
————
With ice cream in one hand and each other’s hands in the other, we walked down the street at night.
By the way, it seems like holding hands would be misunderstood, but Yuri noona seems to be okay.
I want to walk hand in hand with my friends…
It’s an incomprehensible request, but I decided to accept it.
“Taeyang, would you like to sit in the park for a while?”
“Huh? We can talk at home.”
“That… “
Yuri noona looked up at the sky.
“Huh?”
And the result of raising my head.
It was a pitch black sky without a single star.
“I thought there were stars.”
“There he is. Look, sun.”
“Huh?”
There was a really finely shining star where Yu-Ri noona’s finger pointed.
“Shall we sit down to see that little star?”
“Do you hate poetry?”
“……… There is nothing that can’t be done.”
“Let’s sit down for a bit and then go.”
“Yes.”
I think you have something to tell me.
Since I came out to buy ice cream, Yuri noona seemed to notice me.
It’s nice to go home and talk, but I guess I’d rather talk outdoors.
We sat on a park bench.
At the entrance to the park, the dimly lit streetlight flickered.
The light from the street lamps did not reach the benches we sat on.
Dark and gloomy bench, empty park.
For a moment, I thought that even if I did something insidious here, I would not be caught.
But you can just do that at home.
Of course, I never said I would.
“Yuri noona, so what do you have to say?”
“Huh?”
Even while I was engrossed in useless thoughts, Yuri noona’s gaze, which had been staring at the sky, caught me.
“Isn’t that what you called because you had something to say?”
“Ah… hahahaha.”
Yuri noona said with a smile.
“As expected, Taeyang knows my heart well.”
I don’t really think so.
Before long, Yuri noona looked at me for a long time while maintaining a smile.
She brought up a funny story.
“Just… If it’s Taeyang, I’d like to be able to tell him about my past.”
When Cho Yu-ri was alone with Choi Seon-wu, Yu-ri noona said exactly what she said in the scene before she told her about her past.
“I finally got that kind of courage after seeing the white teeth.”
But the reason was subtly different.
