Chapter 116: Why Did It Turn Out Like This

Michako fell silent for a moment, her head hung low, making it difficult for Yagi Miyuki to see her expression. After a while, she raised her head and smiled as if nothing had happened, asking, “Brother, you’ve read the manga I gave you, right? How did you find it?”

Yagi Miyuki responded with a strained expression, “From a brother’s perspective, I really can’t say it’s good.”

Michako seemed taken aback and Yagi Miyuki continued, somewhat exasperated, “I won’t ask how you even know about my collection, and for the record, I don’t have any brother-sister themed books! Also, Michako, you don’t have that kind of experience, right? How could you draw something so… vivid?”

Michako puffed her cheeks and said earnestly, “As for my first experience, I’m saving it just for you, brother!”

Yagi Miyuki was taken aback and exclaimed, “What nonsense are you talking about?!”

Michako met his gaze firmly, “It’s not nonsense. Such matters can only be with my brother. Whether it’s marriage or spending a lifetime together, no one but you is in my consideration.”

Yagi Miyuki was visibly flustered and realized the severity of the situation was far beyond his initial thoughts. Michako seemed determined to pursue him relentlessly.

“Brother, you need to stop,” he urged.

But Michako, fueled by her emotions, stood up abruptly and slapped the table, her eyes reflecting the same coldness Yagi Miyuki recognized from the past. However, her actions were far from cold or distant.

“Brother, you dummy…” Michako’s voice trembled, her lips quivering as if she was on the verge of tears, “Haven’t I been gentle, understanding, and caring enough? Why can’t you understand my feelings? I know I’m being selfish, but please, brother, don’t just look at other girls. Look at me too…”

“You got sick taking care of Ninomiya-senpai and then I took care of you, but all you ever talk about is Ninomiya-senpai. I just can’t take it anymore, brother…”

Tears welled up in Michako’s eyes, her voice choked with emotion. She had changed her once self-centered ways for her brother, learned Chinese cooking for him, and since rebirth, she had dedicated herself wholeheartedly to making him fall for her, acting like a faultless wife.

She didn’t expect recognition for these small efforts, but she at least wanted her efforts to feel worthwhile. She couldn’t complain about him caring for Ninomiya-senpai, but did he have to lie to her? Didn’t she deserve at least a thoughtful lie for all her efforts?

After venting her frustration, Michako lost the courage she had mustered up. She turned away, not daring to look at her brother, afraid of seeing a look of despair.

In the future, she had confessed to her brother without holding back, but it only drove them further apart. Remembering this, her newfound confidence crumbled. Clenching her fists, then quickly releasing them, Michako hung her head and broke the tense silence, timidly apologizing, “I’m… I’m sorry.”

She thought she could face her brother’s rejection or disappointed gaze and boldly declare she wouldn’t give up. But faced with the reality, she realized she couldn’t do it. Even now, a single word of reprimand might make her break down in tears.

“Michako…”

Yagi Miyuki looked at his sister, standing still, head hung low like a defendant awaiting judgment in court. He opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words.

Should he be angry? As a brother, he should scold her for her misguided views and correct her way of thinking. However, Michako’s hysterical confession had indeed conveyed her feelings, leaving him somewhat stunned.

At this point, how could he not understand the depth of Michako’s feelings for him? Feelings perhaps too heavy for him to bear. But accepting them wasn’t an option either.

A cute, gentle, caring girl who makes lunchboxes every day, waits at the door for you to come home, asks if you’d like dinner or a bath first, and takes meticulous care of you when you’re sick – what man could refuse such a perfect girl?

“But all of this is based on one premise – Michako… is my sister!”

Despite the lack of blood relation, family isn’t defined by blood. In his heart, Yagi Miyuki only felt sibling affection for Michako.

Yagi Miyuki covered his face.

There was no need to ponder; this was clearly not a matter of choice. As her brother, what he needed to do now was to firmly decline Michako.

“Michako…”

Yagi Miyuki took a deep breath, steeled himself, and spoke with the same tone he used to decline all the girls who had confessed to him since he crossed over, “I will pretend I didn’t hear what you just said. And please, don’t say such things again.”

“Is it still the same, after all?”

Michako’s body trembled, her fists clenched, her vision gradually blurring.

She regretted it.

If she could do it over, she wouldn’t have shown that comic to her brother, wouldn’t have confessed her feelings under such inappropriate circumstances.

Things were fine as they were. Even if her brother and Ninomiya-senpai got together, at least they could maintain their current relationship. But now… things couldn’t go back to how they were before, could they?

“Let’s leave this matter here.”

Watching his sister standing silently, head bowed, Yagi Miyuki sighed, “Come on, let’s eat.”

“I’m full.”

Michako’s voice shook noticeably. She picked up the half bowl of porridge left on the table and walked towards the kitchen, her steps unsteady, as if escaping.

“Michako…”

Watching his sister turn around, a tear falling from her eye, Yagi Miyuki’s heart skipped a beat. He opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.

“Why did it turn out like this…”

As Michako disappeared around the corner, Yagi Miyuki tugged at his hair, feeling somewhat helpless.
