"[Name]-chan, will you take us to the park?!" the ever-so excitable Shun clung to your arm as he pleaded to you. It had been a little over two months since you arrived and met Matatagi along with his younger siblings, and in that time; you had grown surprisingly close to his little brothers more so than him. But, the two innocent children never had an older sister, or motherly, figure in their life and you might've been the closest thing they were going to get.

Your sweat dropped, Matatagi wasn't here, and he'd flip out if he found his brothers missing when he came back from the store. "We have to wait until Matatagi-kun comes home!" he doesn't even know you're here right now, either.

Both Yuuta and Shun gave a groan of disappointment, and you felt the mood being dampened so you quickly opted for another activity to occupy their boredom. "Why don't we play hide-and-seek?!" you suggested, and that seemed to put smiles back on their faces.

"Yeah! And, I'll even be it!" Yuuta offered, and you and Shun both agreed to that; and just like that, Yuuta began counting down and merry laughter filled the shabby home again.

"Ten, Nine, Eight!"

You rushed off somewhere opposite to Shun, it looked like he was headed upstairs, and you stayed on the first floor. You decided that hiding in the kitchen might be a good idea, so you went there in a flash.

"Seven, Six, Five!"

As Yuuta continued counting down, you felt that surge of desperation course through your veins, unsure of what hiding spots would be essential; something easy, but not too easy would be preferable. You made your way over to the counter, opening a cupboard and removing a few items from it and laying them on the counter before climbing up and fitting yourself within it;

Slowly closing the door, and being enveloped in darkness.

"Four, Three, Two, One! Ready or not, here I come~!"

From your spot you could hear those final words being chimed, and the scurrying sound of running footsteps. You put a hand over your mouth as a failed attempt to stifle your giggles, playing with these guys was too exciting, and a string of angelic giggles slipped past your delicate fingers.

A couple of minutes had passed, and a certain someone finally got home. "Yuuta! Shun! I'll make dinner," he hollered as he closed the front door behind him. He entered in the kitchen, unbeknownst to you that it was him, and you felt your heart drop into your stomach.

Ah, were you found already...?!

"Why did they leave these boxes out?" a voice asked to themselves, and you blanched when you heard it. As light flooded the newly opened cupboards, your sight was a deadpanning Matatagi Hayato, who didn't seem too happy with finding you stuffed in his cupboard. "What the hell are you doing in my cupboard?"

"Oh, Hayatonii-san found [Name]-chan!" Yuuta and the found Shun both proclaimed with excitement, and awestricken filled tones. "We were playing hide-and-seek, and it looks like she won!"

Matatagi felt his eyebrow jerk upwards suddenly, who did you think you were? Just walking into his home unannounced whenever you pleased, and entertaining his dear brothers? Nonetheless, Matatagi opened up his arms, beckoning you to come into them and let him help you down. He didn't need you messing anything up more.

Cheeks tinting pink, you nodded your head in approval and let him rest his hands at your sides and use his strength to ease you back down on flat ground. You fumbled a bit, holding onto him for support for a moment, before recoiling away from him in embarrassment. "S-Sorry!" you murmured out quickly.

"It's fine. What did you come by for anyway?"

"I just wanted to see you!"

Unbelievable.
