Whenever I close my eyes, I can vividly recall the days I spent with my beloved brother. I was always following him around everywhere. Back then, I was even worse at interacting with people than I am now, so I was never able to work up the courage to speak to him, but whenever he found me following him, he’d give me a warm smile and beckon me over to his side. That always made me so happy. And whenever I walked over to him, he’d gently pat my head. I loved that more than anything else.
Those days were filled with joy, but as time passed, I came to realize how ignorant and foolish I’d been. All I’d done was greedily devour my brother’s love without giving anything back. Every day, I curse my past self for her selfishness. If I’d been paying any attention, I would have noticed the pain in his gaze. Or the fact that all of our other relatives shunned him. Or the fact that he was always watching the lessons I was able to freely partake in from afar. Of course, whenever he spotted me coming, he’d quickly plaster on a smile, but there was always a darkness behind that smile that I simply chose to ignore.
Ever since he was a child, my brother has always been fighting against the unfairness of the world. At the time, I hadn’t even tried to understand him. I’d just let him spoil me without giving anything back. But things are different now. Now I understand what’s important to him, and what he desires. Most importantly, I know what I have to do to support him. Even if it ends up costing me everything, that’s a price I’ll gladly pay.
“Before today’s match starts, I’m going to attack Shinomiya Amane while he’s in the waiting room,” Shizuku confessed to Alisuin as they were walking back to the tournament venue from the department store. It was right after they’d finished picking out new clothes for Sara Bloodlily.
“What? What do you mean, Shizuku?” Alisuin responded, so shocked that she stopped in her tracks.
