I Am Not a Sis-Con! ~ All the People Around Me Call Me One, but Isn’t It Just Because My Sister Is T

After the four of us finished our meal, we turned towards the exit to leave the restaurant.

 

“Well, we’re going home.”

 

“Yes, we should. …”

 

The two of them walked towards home.

 

At that time, I felt that Sara was somewhat lacking in energy.

 

“Sara? Are you okay? You look a little pale.”

 

“I’m fine. …”

 

“Really? But I think you should go home and get some rest.”

 

“Thank you.”

 

I walked while paying attention to Sara.

 

I reached the front of the house and took the key out of my pocket.

 

“Are you sure you’re okay?'”

 

She took off her shoes at the front door, her breathing seemed to be ragged.

 

“I knew I couldn’t hide it from you, Nii-San.”

 

“Of course. I’ll go get a thermometer now, so go to your room and rest.”

 

“Okay.”

 

She nodded weakly and went upstairs.

 

I took out a thermometer from a drawer in the living room and knocked on Sara’s room.

 

“Come in.”

 

Hearing those words, I stepped into Sara’s room.

 

Sara had changed into her pajamas and was lying on the bed with the covers over her head.

 

“Here, I’ve brought a thermometer. Take your temperature.”

 

“Yes …”

 

She took it and tucked it under her arm.

" "

 

A few minutes later, the thermometer beeped.

 

It read 37.8℃. (Editor: 100.4F)

 

“It’s 37.8℃. It might go up in the future.”

 

“I knew I had a fever. …”

 

“Yeah. I’m going to the pharmacy. Can you wait for me?”

 

“Hai.. is fine” (TLN: NOOO SARA IS ILL, AHHHH)

 

I checked my pocket to make sure my phone could do QR payments.

 

“All right. I’m going to go get medicine for you, so go back to sleep.”

 

“Hai, …”

 

After saying that, I locked the front door and ran to the drugstore.

 

I wanted to get back to Sara as soon as possible.

 

When a person felt sick and weak, they would feel unusually more helpless.

 

The drug store was less than a ten-minute walk away, but I hurried and arrived there in five minutes.

 

I entered the store and threw sports drinks, cold pads, masks, over-the-counter1 cold medicine, ready to eat rice porridge, and jelly into the basket.

 

“I guess that’ll do for now.”

 

After putting all the necessary items in the basket, I queued up at the cash register.

 

“That’ll be 2,800 yen.”

 

“Yes, QR, please.”

 

“Okay.”

 

I took my phone out of my pocket and displayed the QR code on the screen.

 

“Yes, thank you.”

 

When I heard the sound of payment completion, I picked up the plastic bag and hurried back the way I came.

 

As before, it took me about five minutes to get home.

 

I unlocked the door and went to Sara’s room.

 

“I’m back.”

 

After saying that, I entered Sara’s room.
