Chapter 320. [On A Melancholic Night]

“Hey, you guys! Good morning, it’s morning! Wake up… GYAAAAAA!!?”

Early in the morning, Angu Ogu’s scream echoed through the room.

What she saw in front of her was…

“Gu… can’t breathe… bu-bu-bu…”

“Iroha is foaming at the mouth and dying!?”

It was me, being put in a choke sleeper by a half-asleep Ah-nee.

Panicked, Angu Ogu rushed over and started pulling at Ah-nee’s arm.

“She’s not budging!? Hey, you idiot sister! Wake up already!”

“Snore… Iroha-chan… love you… mumble mumble”

“Oh, mom… I’m coming to you now…”

“Calm down, Iroha!? Also, your mom is still alive, right!? Wake up, Ah-nee!”

Angu Ogu slapped Ah-nee’s cheeks back and forth.

Finally, she woke up with a “mumble?” and groggily looked around.

“Yawn… Oh, is it morning already? I feel like I had a good dream.”

“Ah-nee, never mind that, let go of your arm!”

“I can’t hold on… any longer… thud”

“Iroha~~~!?”

“Uh… did I… do something?”

As I lost consciousness, I made a vow.

Ah-nee, I will never forgive you! And Angu Ogu, who offered me as a sacrifice, you’re equally guilty!

***

“Hey, Iroha, cheer up!”

“I-I’m sorry, Iroha-chan.”

The three of us were having breakfast in the living room.

Well, it was technically morning… or rather, close to noon after everything that happened.

“… Hmph.”

I turned away and silently ate my food.

Usually, I’d sit next to Angu Ogu, but today I placed my chair a bit further away.

Last night and this morning had been a mess.

I couldn’t sleep due to frustration, and just as I was finally dozing off, Ah-nee did that.

Thanks to her, I didn’t get any sleep.

…Well, I did pass out, though!?

“It’s all your fault, both of you!”

“Don’t say that. Thanks for the meal, Iroha. Today’s breakfast was delicious!”

“Right! When did Iroha-chan become such a good cook? It’s unfair that Angu Ogu gets to eat this every day! I want seconds!”

“If you think flattery will get you anywhere, you’re wrong.”

But, hearing that made me happy… wait, no!

Compliments won’t get you anything! Seriously!

“Really? Then how about this, a hug~!”

After finishing her meal, Angu Ogu came around and hugged me from behind.

Instantly, I let out a “Pigi!?” scream.

“What’s wrong, Iroha?”

“Agagaga! The muscle pain from yesterday!”

“Oh, sorry about that.”
