"Hey... hey, hey, hey, hey, hey...?

Sitting on the couch reading a book I love, Emma pulled my clothes quicker.

And you'll look up at my face with your would-be eyes.

Emma, who thinks Aoyagi will play again today, can't seem to wait to hear about him.

I'm sure you think you've got a sweet brother.

'I'm sorry, Emma. Aoyagi said you were going to be late, so I don't think you're coming yet.'

Aoyagi said if you could be late at night, make a promise to me.

I haven't heard exactly what time you can play, but I'm sure you haven't.

"Mmmm......"

'You can't even swell your cheeks so much, can you? Aoyagi, you're busy. "

"Uuuuuuuuuu!"

When I said no, Emma swelled her cheeks even more and pressed her face against my stomach.

Maybe you're going to protest.

The strength is weak, so it doesn't hurt, but my chin hits grime and it tickles a little.

"If Emma is a good girl, Aoyagi will be here soon, so wait for me, okay? Right? '

I try to get Emma off my body and gently stroke her head to say it.

Emma didn't seem convinced yet, but she nodded cocklessly.

Aoyagi, it may have been a little cowardly to let you out, but it seemed to work for Emma.

Emma became a good girl, so I stroked her head okay and praised her.

"- Emma, Aoyagi, let's have dinner by the time you get here, shall we? Let's go shopping together now '

'Yeah......!

Emma nodded happily as she rang to go shopping.

You must be happy to be out there.

Emma will be attending preschool starting next week, and I'm stuck alone in the house during the day because I'm not around.

That's why I must have missed you yesterday and left the house.

This morning, when I told her, "If you wait with a good girl, Aoyagi will play with you," Emma waited properly at home.

I really appreciate Aoyagi listening to what Emma has to say so honestly.

When we changed into outdoor clothes, Emma and I left the house amicably holding hands.

Sometimes it's dangerous to look away, but you simply want to connect because you want to.

If you hold hands from me, Emma will look very happy.

This kid is a basic sweetheart, and he loves having his hands held and hugged.

However - in the UK, it was exclusive to me or your mother......

Emma doesn't like it when others try to hold her hand or hold her.

I thought you hated me because I'm not family, Aoyagi, but I wanted you from me.

Apparently in Emma, Aoyagi, you are a special treat.

He's a very sweet guy, so maybe it's natural to think of him as special.

I'm sure Aoyagi raised you dearly by your kind family.

It is my desire to raise Emma dearly so that she can grow up to be a kind person like you, Aoyagi.

"Ah - stay...!

As I stared at my little sister walking next door, Emma suddenly sounded happy.

What Emma called "brother"...

I turn my gaze forward from Emma.

Then there was someone walking there who just came to mind earlier.

Even though I live in the same town, I just went shopping and I stumble upon you. You feel some strange edge.

But - who is walking next door...?

Aoyagi, the girl who walks next to you.

She has beautiful dark hair tied behind her, and she has a cute face that you can see from a distance.

Is he about 140 cm tall?

He's a little guy, but he's very cute with his face's youthfulness.

And - Wow, Aoyagi seems to be close to you.

I was worried about the girl walking next to you with a nice smile on her face.
