(**Kaito’s POV**)
“Pardon my intrusion…”
After eating one of the most sumptuous dinners I’ve ever had in my life, I was told that Alice-san had called me to her room.
Honestly speaking, I’m just feeling melancholy and depressed.
I had made another mistake, and I couldn’t face her.
It’s probably because of what I did that Alice-san made me run all morning.
Now it’s hard for me to walk.
But I couldn’t just ignore it if Alice-san had called me.
So I went to her room.
“Nn… this way…”
When I came to her room, Alice-san moved over to the bed, sat down, and patted her side.
I guess she’s asking me to sit right next to her.
I did as she asked and sat down next to her.
It was a bed used by the daughter of the Byodoin Conglomerate.
Not only was Alice’s bed soft enough for me to sink deeply into, but it was also fluffy and very comfortable to sit on.
But that’s not what I’m thinking about right now.
Maybe it was because I felt guilty about what I did yesterday, but I felt uncomfortable.
For some reason, Alice-san, who had seen my expression, came around behind me.
And then― suddenly, she hugged me from behind.
“Alice-san…?”
I was not in high spirits, so I was not surprised as usual.
But I was still puzzled by her sudden action.
“Kai has… too many things to deal with…”
“Too many things…?”
“Yeah… You can… vent your frustrations and anxieties more…”
Alice-san said this in a gentle voice and began to pat my head like she did the last time she gave me a lap pillow.
I thought that she was completely treating me like a child, but for some reason it felt good to me now.
So I just accept what Alice-san does to me.
“…I don’t understand…”
“You don’t understand…?”
“Yes… I don’t know anything anymore… And I feel like I’m losing my identity.”
I let out the anxiety I’ve been carrying around like that.
I’ve been feeling differently since I remembered that I left Kiriyama to die.
I became more aware of this when I saw Aria break down in tears.
And when I saw Sakura-chan being attacked by Kiriyama, my rational mind was completely blown.
I really felt like I was becoming less and less myself.
“It’s all right, everything’s fine… Kai is Kai…”
While I was letting out my anxiety, Alice-san continued to gently pat my head.
I felt a twinge of pain in my chest as she did this, and my eyes began to feel hot.
“Kai forgot himself this time because… his precious sister had been attacked… If someone you care about was attacked… you would be so angry that you would forget yourself… So it’s okay… It’s not like Kai is going crazy…”
“But… it did scare Sakura-chan…”
“No… The little angel was grateful to Kai… she’s not scared of you…”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah… How can she not be grateful to her brother… for saving her life when she’s in danger… I’m sure she’ll be… glad to know that you were angry for her sake… Besides… Kai should be more… confident…”
“Confident…?”
“Yes… Kai is… different… than when he was before… Now there are a few… kids who adore Kai… And he’s the one that… everyone is envious of…”
A person that everyone is envious of huh…
When she said that, the only ones that come to mind are Kirara and Sakura-chan.
And also…Sakihime I guess…?
“What do they admire about me…? I’m such a scumbag…”
“I guess you don’t know… how attractive you are… Kai is nice, you know…? All those girls know that…”
“I’m not sure… And I’m also afraid to be honest with them about the fact that they’re doing me a favor… I’ve talked to Haruka… I told Alice-san about this before when I was in middle school, but I don’t think you remember her. I once confessed my feelings for a girl that I was close to back in middle school, thinking that we were both in love with one another. But she rejected me. Not only that, but I made her cry. To be honest, I didn’t expect her to cry after I confessed my feelings to her, so I was really shocked. To top it all off, the girl who didn’t like my confession moved to a new school a week later without telling me, just to get rid of me. I don’t want to make that mistake again.”
I acted cheerfully as if I were telling a funny story, and told her what I was most worried about.
The reason I said it in a funny way was because I couldn’t face it head on yet and could only say it in a joking way.
“I remember… Kai, you made one big mistake…”
“Big mistake…?”
“Yes… In the first place… common sense dictates that… what Kai thinks is impossible…”
“What do you mean?”
I didn’t understand what Alice-san was saying, so I asked her straightforwardly.
She thought for a moment and then slowly opened her mouth.
“Maybe… she was too shocked… for you to be rejected and couldn’t make a proper decision… But I’m sorry… The answer is… you have to find it yourself… Here’s what Alice will tell you… I feel sorry for those girls…”
“Are you talking about Sakihime and the others…? …Sorry, I’m not seeing the connection…”
“Yeah… I’d like to tell you about it, but… it’s also something that Kai needs to realize on his own… It is also important to understand that not accepting… favors are hurting the other person… It’s not necessary to give an answer right away, but if you don’t… face them properly, it’s not… good, you know…?”
“E-Erm… What do you mean by that? To be honest, I have no idea…”
I had no idea what she was talking about, because her words were out of context and my question was still unanswered.
When I turned around and looked at Alice-san’s face, she was looking at me with a gentle smile on her face.
“You need to… be a cool person in front of those girls. But in front of… Alice, you can… whine…”
“You’ve changed the subject again… But… thank you…”
At that time, I was feeling lighter because of Alice-san’s gentle hug and pat on my head, but I didn’t realize that she was changing the subject so often that she was trying to keep me from remembering the bad things by switching my thoughts frequently.
Honestly, I feel so much better when I’m with Alice-san.
Maybe it’s because the other kids are usually too energetic, but being with Alice-san, who doesn’t talk much and has a quiet atmosphere, makes me feel at ease.
Just as I was feeling at ease in this atmosphere, God played a merciless trick on me.
“Onee-sama~, I want to sleep with you…”
It was Camilla-chan, a silver-haired girl with cat ears, who came into Alice-san’s room with a slightly sweet voice in a sleepy state.
“””Ah.”””
The three of us looked at each other and froze as Camilla-chan suddenly walked into the room.
But we only froze for a short moment.
In the next moment, I wanted to ask her where she got it from, but Camilla-chan said, “This man also needs to be cleaved!” Camilla-chan came at me with a wooden sword in her hand―.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
