Prologue

On the night of March 4th, after returning from the hot spring, in the Kiryuu Family’s living room, Keiki and Mizuha sat at the dining table, facing their parents who had come home after a long time. Across the table from Keiki’s seat sat a middle-aged man with average stature and muscles, wearing a polo shirt with long sleeves—Kiryuu Makoto. Next to him sat their mother Touko, who was wearing a casual shirt with pants, her semi-long glossy hair hanging down her shoulders. Upon returning home, the two took off their coats, and while Keiki and Mizuha fixed their disarranged clothes, prepared some tea.

This is so awkward.

Keiki felt an uncomfortable bead of sweat run down his forehead amidst this oppressive atmosphere. He felt like the defendant in a courtroom, waiting for his guilty verdict to be pronounced upon him.

Right as I got into a good mood with Mizuha, they had to come home…

Shaken by Mizuha’s approach, Keiki lost against his feelings and pushed down Mizuha in this very room. That’s when the tragedy happened. As they both laid on the sofa, kissing each other, he grabbed for her chest and their parents came home and saw it. The sight of that battlefield is what created this current situation. Mizuha sitting next to him, wearing her sweater from before, equally seemed like she was feeling awkward, as her face was downcast.

I never would have imagined there would be a family meeting because of an incident like this. Keiki thought to himself. His father put down the teacup and opened his mouth with a humble expression.

“Well, what should I say about this…? I’d like my first grandchild to be a girl.”

“You’re jumping the gun!”

And yet, after her husband stepped on the gas pedal with no brakes, now the housewife continued.

“We could hold the marriage ceremony in a more western style? In front of a shrine is nice and all, but I’d love to see Mizuha-chan in a wedding dress!”

“Hold your horses, okay?!”

Keiki knew this, but his parents went at their own pace as always. Naturally, Keiki also wanted to see her in a wedding dress.

“Now, now. Don’t be like that. We do feel bad for interrupting your fun like that.” Makoto argued.

“Phrasing!”

“If you’d like, we could always spend some time outside the house?” Their father continued.

“Great idea, Darling.”

“Don’t support her!”

Keiki just wanted to forget about all of this and vanish from this cruel world. Even Mizuha was still blushing brightly, her face downcast.

“You don’t need to be this embarrassed, you know? Wanting to touch the person you like is something completely normal.” Touko argued.

“R-Right…” Keiki still felt awkward.

“What’s that reaction for?”

“I mean, I was prepared for a lecture, so…”

“We’ve accepted the fact that you two are dating, so we wouldn’t comment on every small thing. Seeing how serious you are, we won’t get in your way.”

“Mom…”

“Though maybe don’t do it in the living room? You’ll never know when we might come home to interrupt you, right?”

“That… we’ll be careful about from now on.”

Touko brought flawless logic to the table, so Keiki could only nod. Next time, even if such a mood came up, he would consider time and place.

“More importantly, there is something your father and I are even more curious about…” Touko said, and glanced at Mizuha. “That ring on your finger. Is that an engagement ring?”

“Hmmm? Engagement ring?” His wife’s words caught Makoto’s attention, and he leaned forward.

Mizuha put her hands together in front of her chest, showing off the ring.

“Yep. Nii-san gave it to me on my birthday.”

“Going with a ring immediately? Not bad. I’m seeing you in a new light now, Keiki-chan! Don’t you agree, Darling?” Touko turned towards Makoto.

“You’re right. I still remember how you were bawling your eyes out after wetting your bed.”

“How far back are you going…?” Keiki really didn’t appreciate stories from all the way back then.

“My son.”

“What now?”

“This is just my earnest question, but when have you two gotten so close? You sure didn’t seem that way the last time I saw you.”

“That, well… a lot happened this past year.”

Such as that whole Cinderella mystery, for example. Or how she stole his first kiss at the pool. And you can’t forget the time she assaulted him naked during the calligraphy club’s summer camp. Many more events could be named here, but these are better left a secret, as none of these episodes were anything their parents would need to know, and they didn’t even know about Mizuha’s exhibitionistic fetish. Thus, Keiki simply played it off.

“What about you two, anyway? Why did you suddenly come home without even telling us?”

“Ahh, that’s… it’ll be a longer story.”

“Huh? Is it that important of a reason?”

“Well, both me and your mother happened to get a vacation at the same time, so we decided we might as well come home.”

“That wasn’t long at all!”

Why was he acting like that, anyway?

“I mean, you know, we thought we might as well visit our dear children.”

“We would have loved to make it home in time for Mizuha-chan’s birthday, though.” Touko said with a saddened tone.

“I know how busy you are, so I’m happy you tried, really.”

“Even if you made it, we weren’t home yesterday. We stayed over at an inn during our trip.”

““Stayed over at an inn?””

Their parents tilted their heads at the same time, so Keiki explained everything. About how they got a double ticket from a senior at school which took them to a hot spring district, how they encountered the girl, and how they were forced to stay over because of the severe snowstorm. Thanks to the snowstorm clearing up today, they had made it home a few hours ago.

“So that’s what happened? I see. Going on a hot spring trip sounds wonderful~”

“You’re a full-fledged couple now, huh? When I got the call from Keiki saying that he wanted to marry Mizuha, I was a bit dubious, to be honest.”

“That’s right! Keiki-chan was so smooth back then! Saying stuff like ‘Please give me your daughter’s hand in marriage!’, you know.”

That was around the time there had been weird rumors of them dating despite being siblings. He told Mizuha about said phone call, but left out the details for obvious reasons.

“Is that true, Nii-san?”

“Well, yeah… I am pretty serious about you, after all…”

“I’m so happy…” Mizuha blushed ever so slightly, as she reached for Keiki’s hand, gently holding it.

Met with this sweet sensation, Keiki’s heart frozen by the previous tragedy now warmed up again.

“Mizuha…”

“Nii-san…”

Holding hands, the two looked at each other, and right as they entered a mood allowing for another kiss, that atmosphere was destroyed because their parents were excitedly watching over the two.

“Going for a kiss? In front of your parents? Ahh, so exciting!”

“Phew, phew!”

“The audience sure is noisy tonight!”

They barely started dating, so naturally they wanted to be as lovey-dovey as possible. Especially with a cute girlfriend like Mizuha, Keiki was brimming with excitement to continue where they had been previously interrupted. More honestly, their parents were in the way, and Keiki wished they would just go back to work, but saying ‘Leave’ to their faces was too cruel. So he decided to ask them indirectly.

“So, how long will you be staying this time? Even if you two got some time off, you won’t be able to stay long, right? I know that you both work at pitch-black companies after all.”

Since they worked at black companies, even if the pay was good, they had to work overtime a lot and even come in during their days off, so they couldn’t even use much of their salary. As a result, they both had rented rooms near their respective companies and mostly went right back to work the day after they visited. Hence, Keiki innocently assumed they’d be gone the following day, but…

“We rarely get a chance like this, so we’ll be taking it slow here for the next two to three days.”

“…Huh? Two to three days?”

As it turns out, their parents would stay much longer than he had wished for. In other words, it would take that long for him to be alone again with Mizuha…

So we can’t be lovey-dovey that entire time…?

After all these trials, the suffering had yet to stop. The unbearably-sweet atmosphere from just now had vanished entirely, as Keiki slumped his shoulders in defeat.
