No Way!
I do not own Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Wake ga Nai.
An irritated groan expulsed from the well-formed lips of the young girl as she stretched an arm complemented by her arched back out to the sky while she made way down the street during a nightly retrieval for her older brother, who went missing for the last few hours, and when she considered the events that occurred earlier today, there was only one place that the high-school boy would naturally come to; within the thoughts that sped through her mind during his absence, she recalled that he had a tendency to find himself at the source of his problems whenever he appeared bewildered. She, however, followed through this bewilderment and found the streetlamp that lit the front of the house of the Neighbor Girl, and made out a figure that stood at the gate in the distance. It was her brother, Kyousuke, though something seemed odd about his expression as she observed him, there was a look of surprise that soon led to another figure that clung to him from the house.
It was none other than Manami, who dug herself into the confines of Kyousuke's shirt, who was stunned as his arms hovered over the frail girl. All that the junior high student could see were the enthusiastic words that echoed no sound from the girl who held her brother, while the streetlight reflected the tears on her cheeks. The two settled in their stand, as it may have been a silence that befell them, until the young man abruptly embraced the person before him in an amorous manner, which caused Kirino to skip a beat.
'What's the meaning of this?' she thought, confused of how this progress in their relationship stepped up so suddenly.
Kirino watched as they entered into a deep gaze for each other. The girl's deft fingers caressed her brother's back through the fabric of his shirt, and crept her slender arms to lock on the nape of his neck, followed by a smile that enticed the boy to pull her body against his. The rest that followed occurred in a moment, as his lips first brushed against hers in an attempt, until he pursued and locked their mouths in a passionate kiss under the light.
The young girl a few ways down the street looked in awe, her breath erratic in nature, and her heart on a run as she witnessed this; she never wished to learn of this and ran the opposite direction to avoid a confrontation with Kyousuke.
The following morning was welcomed by a rasp from the door to Kirino's room, with a few words outside from her elder brother, "Mom made breakfast."
She gave no response to the man on the other side, and lingered in bed until the heavy footsteps dissipated from earshot; the girl rose from the rose-pink blanket then curled with the fabric tucked in-between her legs and chest, while her disinterested gaze wandered about in front of her. With a brief push, she reached for the heart-shaped pillow at the end of the bed and hugged it tightly while she hid the melancholic expression that settled on her face. Expecting to be filled with anger, only a state of disinterest in the entire matter remained after the tears dried up through the night.
What transpired last night suddenly caused a rupture in her view of Kyousuke, that to interact with him would become limited… even she was confused as to what she wanted out of this, and tried to decide that maybe to act in modesty was the new route for her interactions with him, interactions that did not appear to cross the existing boundary between siblings. A new slate was presented to the two of them when he discovered her hobby, and now it seemed like she herself was forcing a new slate onto the table, and she herself knows fully well that Kyousuke wouldn't agree to that; however, she just doesn't know how to deal with the fact that he would be going down the Glasses Girl route.
A light chuckle escaped from her lips as she unconsciously made light of the situation, and realized her crying when a tear dropped onto the pillow.
If he does, indeed, seal himself to Manami, then he would naturally set up a wall between himself and his younger sister, and the more Kirino faced reality, the heavier the tears became. Their relationship will go through a change, which may be subtle at first, but she knew that it was inevitable the moment any girl made their move. This entire time, a single kiss would have been enough to change his opinion, but the taboo of such a thing separated their bodies from going any further.
Thrown into a state of unexpectedness, Kirino resolved to see this go through, and even if the amount of special time and actions she's had go away for good, then there is nothing to do but wish for her brother's happiness.
She rubbed the tears with the sleeve of her pajamas, and cursed the young man for having such a large part in her life.
Kyousuke took a plastic food cover with a flattened top and placed it over the seared fish as he began to set aside his younger sister's breakfast, and proceeded to lift the pink mug of sweetened milk to his lips, and drank half through to help with the cleaning. He ripped a piece of cling wrap and tucked it onto the bowl of miso soup, as well as the bowl of already garnished rice and moved them over the cover; he topped the small plastic container that contained the tsukemono, or pickled vegetables, with its lid and wiped the tabletop clean.
The young man looked over to the sink and observed the dishes he had left from earlier, as he eyed the rest of the milk from the cute cup and laid it down on the board, then walked over to turn on the faucet then he rolled his sleeves; from a sliver of a peek in the hallway, his little sister watched him arrange her morning meal, and noticed the milk-marked shape of his lips on her cup.
'I wonder if Kirino is still upset over yesterday,' Kyousuke thought as he applied dish detergent onto the sponge in his hand, 'I haven't talked to her since, maybe I should call her down again.'
She stared at the dazed face that ignored the running water, and the countenance sprung back to reality to wash the dishes. He may be thinking about that girl, she told herself, and turned towards the staircase to make way back to her room. As soon as the elder brother finished the dishes, a determined shine appeared in his eyes to come up to his sister's room; he removed the wrapping from the bowls and organized the food onto a tray.
Another round of knocks came from the door as Kirino huddled even closer in her bed, wishing that he would just ignore her for today, but was persisted from beyond the door, "Pause your eroge for now and have some food," then he added with some enthusiasm, "I even reheated it for you."
Now the girl felt obliged to open the door when he's being considerate, so she swung down from her bed and stepped towards the door, "I'm opening it."
A victorious grin was on the boy's face with the tray in his hands, "I knew you couldn't resist the temptation of reheated miso soup."
Something particular she noticed placed on the tray was the refilled mug of milk, and she could make out the details of where his lips were from before. She gestured him to come into the room, and a desire welled up in her to touch that spot with her own lips, but saw this as 'playing dirty' against what may already be an established relationship between Kyousuke and Manami; however, she was prepared to enjoy the indirect kiss because no one would know but her anyway, and she may as well get some small pleasantries out of him until he's committed to Glasses Girl for good.
A brief smile made way to her face as she sat down, and the other settled the tray on the bed next to her then carried the small table near the door to put in the center of the round green carpet at the heart of the room. Kirino waited for her brother to arrange the dishes onto the low table, and then lowered herself to the carpet and clapped her hands together, "Thank you for the food."
The first thing she did was pick up her cup of milk and placed her lips to where Kyousuke drank, and as she set it back down, a wide grin stretched across her face, while her brother leaned his chin against the back of his hand and commented, "You're in a better mood already."
She let out a giggle, "Of course I am~"
