Meanwhile, at the same time.

MORNINGS.

*Step*

Someone stepped up the stairs, walking towards my room.

Wearing a school uniform with an apron on the outside, the man went and knocked on my door.

*Tok-Tok-Tok* Sound knocking.

"Onii Chan, are you awake?"

Today is Tuesday, which signifies that this morning is the day to go to school.

Today is a happy day for Kirino, you can say that today might be a special day because her brother is now starting to talk to her.

Usually he is just moody in his room and rarely goes out of the room except to go to school and just eat if he wants to get out of his room.

But at this time it was different, he was already able to chat with his brother. This opportunity is what he had been waiting for a long time, this is an opportunity to strengthen the relationship between the family.

"If you don't wake up soon you can be late to school..."

There was no reply from inside her brother's room.

This is strange, not usually his brother woke up late, what might happen to his brother?

"Onii - Chan...?"

Still no sound could be heard from inside his sister's room.

Did something happen to my sister? Is brother currently sick so that he cannot return his call? If that's true, he has to make sure.

Ambiguous feeling continued to be reflected inside his head. Thinking too much makes anxiety about her brother's condition deeper in her heart.

Not much thinking for too long, Kirino held onto her brother's room doorknob, then tried to open it.

*Crack*

The door was completely open, at this moment her brother's room door opened slightly, and from here Kirino could see the condition of her brother's room. Although only a little open, he could see the bookshelf behind the door of the room from where he was.

This really surprised him, usually his brother always locked his room. Confining herself while playing games and reading books, it was her brother's daily activities. But this time it was different, it seemed like her brother had forgotten to lock his room, not usually she forgot such a basic thing.

But, after a second thought this unlocked door might have something to do with her brother's current condition. Seeing events like this made him sure that his brother might be lying limp in his bed.

Not waiting for long, Kirino began to hold tightly onto the doorknob of this room, then opened it completely wide.

"Onii-Chan, I'm in...."

A look in her eyes that she first saw was her brother who was asleep in his bed. Looking at him sharply, a snoring sounded in his ears. Hearing from the snoring made him feel relieved. Kirino was relieved that right now the thing she was worried about turned out to be just a lie she should not have thought about. His mind was too exaggerated that the negative effects from inside his head made him feel unwanted from his brother's condition at this moment.

Seeing her brother who was asleep made her sure that her brother was just a bad luck to go to school. Because last night the cause of her brother woke up late because last night her brother helped her to handle her daily homework.

"Onii - Chan, you sleepyhead...."

Fwuh..... Feeling relieved because of her brother's current state, Kirino turned to pay attention to the conditions around her brother's room.

In the room, there are books neatly arranged in place, stickers - Anime stickers that are attached to the wall and there is also a PC that is usually played by her brother.

It was a shocking thing for him, ordinary brother was a person who always ignored the circumstances around. Not usually this room is neat, usually also he who cleans his brother's room, every day also he cleans books scattered on the floor of this room space. And also, it's not usually her brother sleeps too late, either,

did he forget to set his alarm?

That is not possible anyway, although the brother does not like to socialize with friends and even his family, rarely out of the room except for urgent matters and eating. But he is a man who studies every night.

To him, big brother was the one he had always admired. Although he entered this room rarely to chat with her, but she was the only sister he admired.

In the past, the brother was a cheerful person, likes to socialize with his friends, but since that incident, until now the brother rarely spoke to his friend or anyone in this family, he said, he only speaks when something is important, and then uses words that are so formal.

Actually, Kirino already knew that her brother was a quiet person rather than talk a lot, maybe at school her brother did not have friends to chat with. For that reason, Kirino had once approached her brother to tell him about the problems that occurred at his school, but his brother did not answer a word of his question.

Looking towards the left, a bookshelf of many strange books piled up and lined up neatly. At first glance, even though the front is not visible, only the side, he knows that the book is the strange books he has read.

"The book....."

Kirino began walking to the bookshelf where many books were, there were many psychology books and dictionaries - dictionaries related to Formal behavior that were often done by her brother.

It was impossible for Kirino to enter this room when there was the owner of her room, Her sister always forbade her to enter her room as she pleased. Therefore, Kirino entered her brother's room during the day, where she had not yet returned from school. At that moment he entered this room using the spare key given by Father.

Right, Father couldn't do anything more for Big Brother, so he handed the matter over to him by giving the spare key of big brother's room to himself to deal with the matter.

At that time, by gathering information from Mom and her friends, Kirino found out why her brother could change.

That's right, the cause of her brother locked himself in his room is the actions of the woman. Although Kirino still did not know the circumstances of her brother at that time because at that time there was a school tour for several days.

But when Kirino returns after a long time of not meeting her brother, at that time her brother's nature has changed to someone else, and not as usual.

At that moment Kirino tried to chat with him inside her room, but her mind was empty which was soulless, her face was spitting out water in her eyes.

Even until now kirino knew that every night, when the other residents of this house had fallen asleep, she heard the sound of crying from the room next to her which was none other than her brother's room.

Kirino did not know what happened to her sister at her school until it became like this. One thing he believed, bad things always happened to his brother. It was probably something bad that always befell her sister when she was at her school.

Reading and flipping the book the next night, Kirino heard a groan from behind her.

"Sister!"

Starting to turn towards the back, it was the brother who was asleep with tears dripping from his eyes. Cold sweat pouring out of his body, making the sleeping clothes he was wearing wet as a result of the sweat.

"Sister, what happened to you...?"

Kirino started running towards the bed where her brother was, a feeling of anxiety now reappeared inside her head.

It must be a nightmare that is currently being experienced by her brother. Although this was the first time for Kirino to see her brother fall asleep while crying, because she had only heard her crying voice from inside the next room, something very painful must have been experienced by her brother at this time. Bad events experienced by her brother until carried away in the world of her dreams. Right now Kirino could only grieve seeing her brother cry helplessly by looking at her hopeless face.

If there was something she could currently do for her brother, surely Kirino would help him.

Unwilling to see her brother's sad face, Kirino tried to wake her brother up by shaking his shoulders.

"Onii-Chan, wakeup! Comeup! You must be strong! Fight your fear with your strength! Don't let it keep getting into you all the time!"

Gifting a sense of passion to face her fear, that was the current thing she could do by him to help her brother.

Shaking his shoulders many times, it still did not happen any change. At this time Kirino was worried about her brother's condition, now her brother was doing strange while asleep, his hands were strangling his own neck. At this moment Kirino tried to stop her actions from trying to hurt herself, but whatever her power was, her strength was not even able to keep up with her brother.

"Sister, stop! Don't hurt yourself... Please stop....!" By shedding tears.

Even a girl is unable to keep up with a man's strength, so for that there must be another man to compensate for his brother's strength. His father was going out of town with his mother, a precarious situation like this inevitably had him do it.

Kirino repeatedly stopped her brother's hand trying to hurt himself. Kirino continued to hold back from her brother's strength, even if it was unbalanced, this was for the sake of saving the life of her brother. Yes, if this continues to be allowed maybe something bad will happen, even the death he currently fears will be experienced by his brother if it continues to be left.

"Huu...Huo... Please stop! Brother..don't hurt yourself..... Please don't continue... Huo.. Huhuhu...." Kirino could only cry to see her brother's current situation hurting herself, hoping for God to help her brother immediately. Kirino was afraid that the thing she was worried about would really get caught up with her brother.

Withholding it, the strength of her brother began to reduce/sendor and eventually now weakened. This was an opportunity for her, by holding both hands of her brother and moving her side of her bed, suddenly her eyes opened, at this moment the point between her two eyes met each other.

It's too close, you know, right now Kirino's face is flushed red and can't say anything more.

"What are you doing Kirino?"

"Ah... No, I didn't do anything..."

Releasing the two hands she held, Kirino moved away from her brother's gaze that was close to her. He is now away from his brother.

Waking up and starting to sit on her bed, her brother was currently looking at her.

"What's wrong with your face? Why are there tears?"

"No, that...... I thought that big brother was having a nightmare, so I tried to wake up ka-k-kak from that nightmare!"

It was such a shame, saying it quickly stammeringly made her very embarrassed.

"Ohh... I see, thank you for building me, Kirino."

Right now her brother stroked her head, making her even more embarrassed and now staring at her made Kirino and her brother look like lovers. [Eh no, how could I have imagined such a thing. ]Right, although she could not accept that, it was undeniable that this moment of sudden feeling about her brother appeared in her heart. His face that met each other, made his heart move uncharacteristically.

[No....! I just admire my brother, not like I like him, no, no, just stay away from that kind of thought.].

"By the way, what time is Kirino?"

Ah, at this moment Kirino forgot about it, imagining the incident to the point of making herself forget about time.

"Ah... I forgot about it," Looking towards the wall clock that was right in front of him. "Now that it's 08:25, we'll be late for school if we don't hurry, big brother, get ready, I'll wait for you downstairs for breakfast"

In a hurry for Kirino to leave her brother, she currently has to prepare food for her brother, The time is soon the school bell will surely ring.
