2 Meters per Second
Meaning of crying


Although the nurse said, Lia needs a lot of care here, just in case she is still taken to the control check room and rest back. But, I would rather willingly stay with her while taking care of her.


Before long, the nurse had to go to attend to something, and left my sister Lia and I alone in the room at this time.


“Kakak…? Ahhh... I messed it up again, right?”


He seemed to connect his memories, with a moody expression.


“Yes, check your blood to find out your condition completely. Huge failure that could not be easier and clearer.”


“Kakak is very evil... Humps…! Shouldn't big brother encourage and comfort me at a time like this? Evil brother!”


Lia said that while turning her face away, then pouted in annoyance.


Eat, shower and rest, that's what my sister does every day in this hospital, while being monitored by her doctor.


“You intend to reply about my reply earlier, Lia?”


“How do I say it…? Actually, I don't have any negative feelings like hate in my heart... But, I think I have to step forward to survive. For that reason I want to heal.”


Looking at me, Lia's eyes shone with a strong determination.


Looking at his firm eyes, I could not help persuading him. At the time when Lia said I would protect this feeling for sister, she also showed the same eyes.


“... That means you still don't intend to give up, do you?”


“... Huh?”


Lia opened her eyes wide as she felt a little surprised.


“Even though you just said, I thought I'd live here my whole life. Accompanied by brother. So, that word you don't intend to give up on your health condition, do you?”


“I-that's of course! Even if I get sick, I'll work hard!”


Hearing the expected answer, I smiled with relief.


“Hmm... I understand about this logic, but, even if I already understand, still, I still can't do it..”.


Seeing Lia get discouraged, I made a decision in my heart. Think rationally, pick up a good topic of conversation, and then ask.


“Lia, how many holiday sessions before the blood test starts again?”


“Uh, I don't think there's any more chance for a longer holiday session, we can only do a light holiday starting tomorrow week, that's it kak.”


“Hmm... That could be good. We run out of options if there is no time for a vacation. Is here own holiday out of hospital allowed?”


“Visiting another place for the holidays requires approval from the side of this hospital and someone to


watching us, brother.”


“Oh... Okay, then, I'll discuss it with the doctor first. If that approval is allowed, then, starting tomorrow week let's go on holiday together at the nearest playground from here only, huh?”


“Eh... Sister's holiday…? Old-faced…? What is it called, dating?”


Lia's mouth was wide open and shocked, it seemed like she was very happy.


“Yes, twosome like a pair of sister and sister, join hands.”.


“Kakk... Thank you, I love big brother.”


Tears welled up in Lia's eyes, then fell down on her cheeks.


“H-hey, sister! Why are you crying?”


“I... I don't know..”


Seeing her tears flowing endlessly, I quickly calmed her down while gently stroking her head.


But, Lia could not stop crying for a long time…
