When I Returned From Another World I Was A Silver Haired Shrine Maiden

The third semester begins and the routine usually passes.

Alicia used to take Wednesdays off as her day off.

It was me who was confused by Alicia's absence at first, but when I got used to it, I was also starting to think it might have been just as good.

Even though I care how much about Alicia, there seemed to be something about being nervous about being seen doing everything I did.

It was such a day off for me to be able to loosen the thread of tension and feel absent, but thus be aware of the size and importance of Alicia's presence.

The month changed to February.

The public was a Valentine's Day, but we had another important event at home.

It's the birthday of our brothers and sisters. February 8th is Yuna's birthday. Every day, February 10th is my birthday. Besides, Alicia was born this year at the same time as me in the other world.

We have a birthday party every year on February 9th, the middle day of our two birthdays.

I plan to do that again this year. Last year I was missing and couldn't celebrate, so this year my mother has been sticking around for a long time to prepare to celebrate.

Wednesday, February 8

It's Yuna's birthday. But today is her day off from work with Alicia. After school I came shopping all over the city by myself.

To buy Yuna and Alicia's birthday present.

Even so, the shopping is generally eye-catching when Alicia and Yuna went out with each other throughout the city last Sunday. That's a pair of big penguin stuffed animals about fifty centimeters that were in the grocery store. I was going to give one of these to Yuna and Alicia.

Alicia seemed to like the next dolphin when she saw the penguin walking around in the aquarium.

And there is a reason that I wanted to give Yuna the same thing.

Yuna didn't want a stuffed animal because she wasn't a child in the aquarium. But every time Yuna came to my room, she held a dolphin stuffed animal and buried it in her face, and I thought there might have been something really untrained about the stuffed animal.

Later, apart from that, I bought a tartan check stall I found at the clothes store as a gift for Yuna, who Alicia asked me to.

I guess Alicia is asking Yuna for a present for me in the same way. There are surprises in the familiarity.

"Oh, not Alice."

I finished buying the gift and was inadvertently called out as I walked around the city.

Turning around, there was emerald and ethereal.

"... wow"

"That's unusual. I can't believe you two are together."

Isn't it about the first time you've seen this sibling walk away together in elementary school? These brothers and sisters don't hate each other, but they didn't seem to care much, and it was extremely rare for the two of them to act alone.

"Well, a little..."

And Ethereum, who for some reason seems to be making a lot of bad.

"It's like you've seen it every other time."

"Ah, meet me!?

Emerald answers to the panicking Ethereum with a face that seems sincerely unpleasant.

"Alice, that kind of joke isn't a bit funny. I'm just dating you because Ethereum says she can't think of a gift for you."

"... don't tell him about the gift."

"I didn't tell you what I was going to give you, and it's fine... because I can raise my gift budget with Ethereum, so to speak, it's like being with a walking purse."

"Isn't that a little too harsh for you, brother…………?

"I'd like to give Alice a pure white underwear for her birthday present, I honestly think these words are raw and warm for what a pervert to say...... really disgusting"

Jade told me to throw up.

"That's right……"

I respond with a bitter smile.

Ethereum wants to give it to her, but she doesn't have the guts to go buy it by herself, so she has the courage to talk to Emerald. You're making a mistake about being brave, that.

"... Ethereal wants me to wear white underwear that much?

"Chi, Chi!? Because that was just a joke and I'm not serious!

"……… Is it true?

The cold gaze of jade pierces the Ethereum.

"As it is, well... I don't care about anything, so I'm fine."

I already know all about Ethereal sexuality.

... Well, even if it was a gift, I had no intention of making it look pale where I wore it.

"That's why I misunderstood..."

Yeah, because I know.

"Speaking of which, is Alicia here today……?

Emerald asks when she notices that Alicia is not responding.

Emerald had a far-sighted gaze and somehow found out she was looking at our souls now.

"Alicia's off the hook."

"With that said, it was Wednesday... are you okay?

Emerald asks me worried.

Big deal…………

"Yeah, I'm fine. Only once a week, and now I'm used to it."

"Yes..."

Jade severely distorted his face. Did it sound like I was being strong? Nothing like that...

"Are you leaving already?

"Yeah. After that, I'm going home when I do the shopping my mother asked me to do in the supermarket."

"…… Are you okay with such big baggage?

"If you like, let me help you hold it Ethereal to Alice's house?

All my brothers and sisters will worry about me. They seem to feel good about places like this.

"It's just bulky and the contents are light, so it's okay. Besides, I can be stronger than Ethereum in the first place, right?

"... I know from my head, but I really don't think it looks that way."

"You and I are going to be shopping, aren't you? I don't care. Have fun. It's weird what I say when I'm in a position to get a present..."

"... Whether or not you can have fun with this guy, okay."

I'm looking forward to the party tomorrow.

In addition to my family, these two people will come to my birthday party tomorrow.

"It's been a long time since the Ethereals have come to visit us... when were you here before?

We used to visit each other's houses when I was a few.

I went to see Ethereal House a few times since I became this body, but I was emotional because Ethereal people never came to us.

"……… You don't remember?

I return Ethereum as if he was confused by my reaction.

"We didn't go to your house before at the funeral."

... it was.

"…… I'm sorry about then."

"That's enough. He was safe."

"Nevertheless, I never thought I'd be celebrating my birthday after the funeral."

"Right."

All three laugh at each other.

I'm glad we all had a funny day back this way.

"See you tomorrow, then"

Say hello to your aunt.

Saying so, I broke up with Ethereum and the others heading all over the city.

"Welcome home."

My mother, preparing for tomorrow in the kitchen, called out to me as I entered the living room.

"I'm home, Mother. This, the shopping I was asked to do"

"Thank you, Alice... you were up in your room first?

"Yeah, because I wanted to get rid of the gift you bought me... Mother, can I help you with something?

"It's okay. We're still just getting ready down there today."

"Oh well... it smells kind of good, but what are you making now?

"Cake."

"Wow! Mom, I can make cake now, too."

"That's why I made it. Because this year is special. It's an important birthday for you to come home and celebrate with Alicia."

"Can I have a look?

"Fine. Unlike the store's, it's not dressed………………"

"That's not true at all. Wow, that looks delicious!

A slightly smaller hall cake lined up with two. Yuna's favorite strawberry cake and Alicia's favorite chocolate cake.

The plate had Alicia, Alice, Yuna, and a few names.

"Mother, this..."

Unexpectedly finds an unexpected name and feels emotional.

"A few of them are my precious sons. We need to celebrate properly."

"Mother..."

"You're Alice now, so you usually try to deal with her as a daughter, but you don't forget she's a few."

My mother touches my cheek. Tears were spilling at some point.

I'm not sad, but I can't stop crying. Is it the effect of this body that made me cry?

Until I settled down like that, my mother gave me a gentle hug.

Next day, February 9th, birthday party day.

But Alicia and I stayed out of tune.
