Chapter 15 – My Little Sister Can't Be Ignoring Me!
"Ugh..." Kyosuke groaned.
He rose from his bed feeling awful. He can't remember what happen last night at all but he feels like he did something he shouldn't have.
"What happened last night?" he asks himself.
He scratches his head and forces himself out of his bed. He falls back onto is bed because he is unable to stand up. He shakes his feet to wake them up. He once again tries to get out of bed and is successful this time. He walks out the door of his room and follows the smell of good food down the stairs and into the kitchen.
Gumi is making breakfast like usual. Gumi sits next to Miku, Kyosuke sits next to Kirino. Rin, Len and some of the others are in the living room watching TV because there isn't enough room at the table. Kyosuke then realizes a table between the kitchen and living room. There MEIKO and KAITO sit eating there breakfast. Kyosuke feels as if someone is missing.
"Good morning!" Gumi calls out to Kyosuke.
"Good morning." Kyosuke responds as he sits down.
Gumi places the food in front of him. Steamed rice, natto (fermented soy beans), broiled fish and nori (dried seaweed). Instead of nori Miku has leeks. Rin has an orange and Len has a banana. KAITO, MEIKO, and Neru have nori. Gumi sits down with her meal and she has carrots instead of nori.
Gumi gives Kyosuke a weird look. "Kyosuke, are you okay? You don't look so good."
Miku looks guilty all of the sudden.
"I don't feel so good either and I can't remember anything from last night." Kyosuke responds.
"You too!" MEIKO calls out.
"Sorry Kyosuke I might have forced you to have some sake last night. When I'm drunk I tend to become very forceful." MEIKO explains.
"It's okay. I don't blame you." Kyosuke tells MEIKO which fills her with relief.
"I just hope I didn't do anything I'll regret later while I was drunk."
"You're a teen you probably pasted out after having a few drinks." MEIKO says.
"Maybe."
The room is then filled with an awkward silence. Everyone, then, continues eating. Miku is the first to leave the breakfast table.
"I'm done." she says.
She quickly puts her empty dishes in the sink and runs up stairs to Kirino's room.
"Why is she in a hurry?" Kirino asks.
"I don't know." Gumi answers.
Why do I feel like what I forgot involved Miku? Kyosuke asked himself in his mind.
They finish up breakfast and the table that MEIKO had placed remained where it was. Kirino had gone up to her room to play her new little sister came. Neru is texting while Rin and Len played video games. MEIKO and KAITO were playing cards on the table MEIKO had placed. They made bets. Gumi was in Kirino's room reading a manga book she recently bought. Kyosuke found himself having nothing to do. He decided to take a nap. He went back up to his room. He hoped to not be disturbed by Kirino. As he opened the door to his room he found Miku waiting for him on his bed.
This morning she had seemed to be ignoring Kyosuke.
"We need to talk." She says but she doesn't look at Kyosuke.
"Okay." He responds seeming confused about the current situation. Kyosuke places himself next to Miku on his bed.
"What did you want to talk about?" He asks.
"It's about last night."
Last night? He questions himself.
"What about last night?" He asks.
Miku grasps onto her skirt squeezing it tightly.
"Well...um...you see..." Miku could not get the words out of her mouth.
She took a deep breath and looked directly at Kyosuke. She then soon lost her confidence.
"Last night, Kyosuke when you were drunk you..."
"I what?" Kyosuke wonders aloud.
"You..." Miku whispers into Kyosuke's hear. "kissed me."
Miku sits waiting for his reaction.
"What?"
"You just grabbed me and kissed me."
So that's what I forgot. He thought.
They look at each other for a second then turn red.
"Sorry." he says.
"It's okay." Miku answers.
They stare at each other for a few minutes. Kyosuke leans a little closer to Miku.
MEIKO and KAITO continue playing cards.
"Huh, I win again KAITO that means you have to buy me sake. How much sake do you have to buy me now?" MEIKO says.
"Ten." He responds in sorrow because he wanted to buy ice cream instead.
"Hey, KAITO can I ask you something?" MEIKO asks.
"Sure what is it?"
"Why do you hate Kyosuke so much? I mean I know you like Miku in all but Neru said that she lied in her text and that they didn't kiss."
"I know but I feel as if he's taken Miku away from me." KAITO answers.
"You know that if it wasn't for Miku I wouldn't be here. Because of the idea of Miku and I dating they didn't cancel me even though I was considered a failure as a Vocaloid. If it wasn't for Miku I wouldn't be alive." KAITO bites his lip.
"KAITO..." MEIKO mutters his name knowing that being considered a failure must cause one to be depressed.
"So that's why..." She mumbles.
"Miku is mine and only mine. Not Len's and definitely not Kyosuke's."
"But the question is KAITO does Miku want to be yours. She could think of you as her perverted big brother, you know." MEIKO giggles a bit.
"Perverted?" KAITO questions that single word.
"Oh come KAITO don't deny it." MEIKO says.
"Oh, really!" KAITO turns to the others.
"Hey Rin am I perverted?" KAITO asks.
"Yes." Rin automatically answers.
"Neru?"
"Yes!" Neru answers.
KAITO flops back onto his chair.
"See told you so." MEIKO laughs.
"Oh really, I'll ask Miku and Gumi!" KAITO marches up stairs to Kirino's room.
KAITO slams open Kirino's door.
"Miku, Gumi I need to ask you something!" He yells.
But he only sees Gumi.
"Miku isn't here." Gumi says as she stops reading.
"She isn't down stairs." KAITO says.
"Maybe she's in Kyosuke's room." Gumi suggest.
"Why would she be in there?" Kirino says pausing her game.
"I'll check there after I ask you something." KAITO says.
"Gumi am I a pervert?"
"My choices are Yes and Yes. No is not an option." Gumi points out.
KAITO leaves the room with the smell of sadness following him. He opens the door to Kyosuke's room.
Creak.
He finds Miku and Kyosuke kissing.
