Today is the wedding of Tsukijo Chizuru and her fiancée Sakuraba.

We became friends when we were in the same class in junior high and eventually became lovers.

Since that time he has been a one-way type and has taken great care of me. I said I would be sunny and married with such a lover...... for some reason I didn't feel sunny and in a complicated mood.

How can it be that my heart is so much longer...?

After all, I wonder if that's the reason.

I have a twin brother named Hope.

It must be my brother's fault that my heart doesn't clear. Even so, it doesn't mean that my hopes did something to me or had a fight.

Of course, I did report the marriage to him, and he's supposed to be at the wedding today...

As the wedding day approached, things were getting weirder and weirder. I often jump up calling my name like a rumor or or stare far away with my vain eyes......

I return to my brother as usual, as I have returned to him when I speak, but I am somewhat distracted.

We twins lost our parents at an early age. Then my aunt and I picked them up, and even the high school students looked after them there - sometimes they were still narrow shoulders, and after going to college, they rented an apartment and lived together.

I can feel free to take care of my aunt and wife from what to how much, so the rent and living expenses were manageable while the two of us worked part-time.

Nevertheless, I only got tuition money because I know how much students could earn part-time...

The tuition was meant to be reimbursed at the same time as the job, but our aunts declined our offer by saying, "Don't worry about it."

That's my nephew and niece friendly aunt, my uncle... but my sister and brother don't have very good memories of my adoptive parents.

Because... my aunt and I ran a company and were basically busy, but they didn't show interest in their children even after subtracting it.

When I and I decided to get a job of hope, I must have been annoyed about us because I was relieved by the look on my shoulder that said "I finally got a load off my shoulder" of something I wouldn't put out in my mouth.

Hope seemed very happy when we decided to live together with me. It's been about six years since me and him started living together.

My brother has been quite a Ciscon for a long time, he's overprotective, and I can understand how it makes me feel to miss him when I think about the current situation where I can't leave my sister when I'm twenty-five.

Even me, I'm sure I'll feel like they took my brother when I get married from now on. But... it's unusual to be depressed because of how close my sister is getting married.

After the wedding, as soon as I have naturalized, I plan to leave the apartment where I now live and move to my new home.

Hope said he wasn't willing to leave the apartment. I work for a big company, not that I don't have any money... but still, my hopes refused to move by saying "I'm not leaving this house packed with memories".

"Still, I'm nervous..."

Unexpectedly, the solitaire leaks.

Soon, the ceremony will finally begin. Originally, I'm pretty asthenic. So I'm anxious to be able to behave well as a bride in public.

I'm alone in the room right now because the groom and I are in a different holding room. Being in a quiet room makes me feel extra nervous.

With that in mind, I suddenly heard a knock on the conn and the door.

"Go ahead."

After I replied yes, it was my hope that I came right into the room.

Somehow, he looks terribly screwed. Seems even more grumpy this morning than when we met face to face.

Wondering, staring at the hope of walking toward this one, he smiled all the time when he saw me in a wedding dress.

"Happy marriage, Chizuru. That dress looks great on you. It's beautiful."

"Look...... thanks! But what's wrong? A meeting or something when you get in?

Virgin Road on admission is to be escorted to the hope.

I could have entered with the groom from the start, but I still want my favorite brother to escort me because it's a sunny stage because of it.

With that in mind, I nominated my hopes... but when I received the nomination, it was clear that he looked unfloated.

"No, it's not..."

"So, what's going on?

Looking into my face as I asked, my hopes looked at me with a look of terrible loneliness.

"Finally, if you think you're going to nest from me, you can't stay or stand... Well, it's called payback."

"Yeah!? I'm already exaggerating... Because we're getting married doesn't mean we won't be able to see each other. We're good friends if you need us, and you don't mind coming to our house anytime?

"Oh yeah......"

I didn't say goodbye for the rest of my life... but my expression of hope has never changed. The point is that we are also common friends of our sister and brother. Between middle school and becoming a member of society, the three of us acted together, as we did every day. So now you don't have to shy away...

"Chizuru...... it's really beautiful. As beautiful as I want to keep taking it away."

That's what the hope said and put his hand on my cheek with some vain eye.

"Eh heh...... thanks. But don't really take me away, okay? Until this point, I don't care if they play Cisco."

"Why not me?"

"Huh...?

"Why can't I marry you?"

"Look...? What are you talking about...? Marriage... what's wrong with you!?"

I accidentally grabbed and shook his shoulders when I realized there was something wrong with my hopes.

"How can we be sisters and brothers?"

"Hey, look! I'm listening!?"

"─ Why do I have to be the only one to see this?"

Hope quietly murmured like that, suddenly grabbed both my arms and cornered them to the wall.

As the hope pressed my body against the wall as it was, I restrained my hand with strong force. As soon as that happens, my back slapped against the wall and my grabbed wrist hurts, and I accidentally distort my face.

What the hell happened to him?

Never before have you ever behaved violence against me...

!?

"I knew it, no. I can't stand you being another man's."

"Look...? What did you just say?"

As soon as I tried to say that, suddenly the look turned to me and blocked my lips forcefully. As I was even surprised by the feel of those soft lips, my hope slowly opened my mouth away from me.

"Let's go, Chizuru. Me and you can't leave each other. We have to be together all the time. I have always been and always will be..."

"Wait, look! Where are you going...?

Without answering the query, Hope put on the long coat he was wearing and took him out from somewhere like the back door. Probably to get out of the ceremony to keep it out of sight.

I was drawn to the desire to walk slowly, walking all over the city without knowing why. Fortunately, it is seemingly inconspicuous because I weave a long coat, but if I could see at my feet, I would have walked in a wedding dress.

Because of this, people seem to see it twice sometimes with a slight look. Walking too far down in shame, he came all the way to the front of the car where his hopes came in at some point.

And he stood at the entrance to an apartment that he didn't recognize if he sat in the passenger seat as it was and noticed.

"Hey, look. Where am I...?

I'll visit, but my hopes are as silent as ever. He pulled my hand as it was and went inside the apartment.

"What are you going to do by bringing me here? I need to get back to the ceremony..."

I was largely confused when they brought me to a strange room, but now I was more in a hurry than that. By the start time, we need to get back somehow... Otherwise, there would be a fuss at the ceremony about the "bride disappearing".

"Hey, please"

"No."

"Hey, why...?

Hope looked back at this one with a terribly lonely face as he ignored my question and walked to the center of the living room.

"Fine, nice room, huh? I wanted to see your happy face, so I took the time to find it. The truth is, I was going to say that day, 'I found a good room, so I'm moving to a new house soon'"

"Huh...?

"Yet... that day you reported to me that you were engaged to me with a happy face. That's why I wasted the room I was looking for."

"... sorry, look. I don't know anything about that..."

"You're an idiot, me... When I decided to live with you, I was really happy... and I always thought I could be with you. You only look at me while I'm home, so that was enough. I was too happy every day to even think about you leaving the house."

"Look... I'm glad to hear that feeling. But you know... no matter how close your sister and brother are, you can't stay with them forever. It may be hard right now, but if one day I can have someone important to my hopes, I'm sure I'll find out."

"Don't you get it yet"

"What do you mean...?

I can't love a woman other than you.

The hope that stood in the center of the room looked straight at me. The soft sunshine from the window illuminates him, sparkling with light brown hair of pigment that suits him well for a flat face.

I was hearing the phrase "I can't love a woman other than you", which I had hoped for, as if I were someone else. I'm sure it's because I didn't want to believe it was a word I said to myself.

"When you were a kid, you promised? 'Let's get married when we grow up'. Ever since then, I've only seen you. No... you were the only one I could see."

"What are you talking about...?

"In kindergarten, you would have come home crying when your friend told you, 'My sister and brother can't get married'? That's when I gave it back." It's okay. I'll definitely have Chizuru as my wife. "

"Look...?

"So I have to keep that promise.... Let's live here together, Chizuru. If I were here, no one would bother me anymore. I'll take care of everything you need to live. You just wait for me to come home every day in this room."

Hearing the words, I gradually understood what my hopes were about to do.

Hope has always liked me as a heterosexual since I was a kid. And suppressing that feeling until my wedding day broke my heart of hope... I'm sure he's going to keep me locked up here for the rest of his life. Suddenly I can't keep up with my thoughts, but I think this is probably the case.

Perhaps he's been planning this for a long time, around finishing the contract for the apartment he was going to live in with me. It's just... was it because my conscience was blaming me for not doing it until my wedding day?

"Yes, I don't like it..."

Hope drove me back to the wall. Oh, what am I going to do...... it's the same schematic as earlier.

When I realized, it was morning. As soon as I woke up in a hurry, a dull pain ran in my lower abdomen.

I know what caused the pain. Last night, Wang held me to bed to resist in the name of 'First Night' and mausoleum many times. I'm sure it's because of that.

Good morning, Chizuru.

"Hih..."

When I looked up, at some point my hopes in a suit stood by the bed.

I recall a lot of the acts that were done to him last night, and I accidentally scream small.

"I'm going to go to work, but are you okay on your own?

……

"Wait with the good boy."

Hope said so, stroking my head as if to abandon the baby.

As I couldn't think of anything and stared behind my expectation of stunning support as it was, I was concerned about the sound of the television coming from the living room.

From earlier on, some announcer called my name frequently. I thought maybe I jumped out of bed and rushed to the living room.

"─ There is a sighting of a man in a mask in his twenties or so seeing a scene walking with a woman like Mr. Moon Castle, and police are searching for Mr. Moon Castle, considering that he may have been involved in some kind of incident."

The news was definitely about me. Oh well... am I supposed to have been kidnapped by someone?

"I'm fine. If you're about to find him, you just have to run away again. I won't let anyone get in our way anymore."

The hope did not move at all, he said so in a calm manner.

……!?

"From now on, don't worry about being with me. Oh, and... we're not sisters and brothers anymore." Couples. "Isn't that right, Chizuru?"

I was asked to agree, but I can't shake my head vertically or horizontally, not much of a fear. Hope held my shoulder like that and gently dropped a light kiss just touching my lips.
