I really don't want to be reborn.

Chapter Thirty-Four: The triumphant sound of a violin in the morning light

Right hand: I am bearing friction that should not be present at my age.

Right Hand Sauce was very well-behaved this morning.

Kyosuke Kosaka looked at his right hand, where there was a faint tooth mark.

Although the teeth marks weren't as distinctive as those of Index from "A Certain Magical Index," they were still quite delicate, clearly made by a girl.

"Shino, do you think it's appropriate to wake me up by 'biting' me? Don't you feel bad about it?"

"Then...drag him out?"

Was it when you were dragged out and fell off the bed that woke you up, or was it when you were bitten?

He was still unsure of what to do, because none of those were pleasant experiences.

"What should I do? How can I avoid being woken up by you in a rough manner?"

Sinon tilted her head and thought for a while: "Then... we won't sleep?"

"..."

That makes a lot of sense.

Oscar Wilde said that the main factor leading to divorce is marriage, and I suddenly realized how true that is.

"Please be a little more understanding, Shino. I was actually quite tired during the day, so what's wrong with wanting to sleep a little longer?"

Kosaka Kyosuke was quite dissatisfied.

Sinon was also quite dissatisfied: "You're lying!"

She's been by his side the whole time, and all she's done is eat and drink with some people, yet he still has the nerve to say he's tired?

Shi Nai was no longer willing to be understanding towards him.

Although a woman's deepest understanding of a man is to allow him to occasionally retreat into his own cave, my brother-in-law seems a little unaware of this when his sister isn't around.

(Does the "self" in this passage refer to a man or a woman?)

She was a little worried about her sister's future marriage—could these two really get married, and would their marriage last?

Shi Nai wasn't sure, but she felt that one of George Bernard Shaw's statements was true.

—If you want to get married, then get married; if you want to stay single, then stay single. In the end, you'll all regret it anyway.

"I wasn't lying!"

He quickly retorted, "I wasn't lying."

Which sentence is missing?

"I really like Shino, just like I like my little sister."

"..."

They have a strong will to survive.

But that's all there is to it.

No matter what kind of liking he had, he dared not act recklessly.

As a die-hard lolicon who absolutely refuses to admit he's a lolicon, he's like someone who hasn't played PUBG for six months, drooling at the sight of a feather duster, yet terrified of being whipped.

However—I really like Sinon??

In light of this, Miss Shino agreed with him that if he wanted to stay in bed, it would only be for half an hour, no more.

Shina's current mood is very simple.

When I sat down for the exam and looked at the questions, I knew the answers. I was so excited, yet at the same time, I felt a strange sense of calm.

"Isn't that blond guy coming today?"

Sinon always refers to her sister's best friend, Eriri Sawamura, as "Golden Hair," though this is usually in private. In Eriri's presence, Sinon is generally quiet and reserved.

Just as her sister's boyfriend wasn't her boyfriend, her sister's best friend wasn't her best friend, and she couldn't learn her sister's teasing and flirting skills, Miss Sinon couldn't replicate the way Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri interacted, so she could only remain silent.

"Eri? She can't possibly come here every morning."

Moreover, the ethical issues within the Sawamura family were on the verge of erupting, so she was naturally in a bad mood. Although she had known for a long time that this day would come, seeing her parents, who had been loving for many years, arguing was still incredibly painful for her.

And this discomfort, like menstrual cramps, is something that friends can't help alleviate.

Her parents' families probably wouldn't mind showing Eriri a ruthless side, after all, emotions are an artist's treasure and a politician's enemy.

“The family members who used to greet me with smiles have suddenly become indifferent—and Eriri Sawamura, who has been subjected to such malice, will probably cry… She probably won’t be coming again anytime soon.”

"It's better if you don't come."

Sinon stood up from the sofa: "Then let's go out for breakfast. I want to eat barbecue."

"No, that golden retriever asked me to wake up Touma every day—I'm a man, is it really appropriate for me to always wake someone up in bed?"

"Touma?"

Shi Nai couldn't understand what nonsense this person was spouting, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of her neighbor.

"Speaking of which, Sawamura asked me a question last time. She asked me what I thought of Touma Kazusa. What do you think, Shino?"

This was a rare evaluation of a person, and Shino thought for a while before nodding: "She's a lot like her older sister, and even easier to bully. I don't dislike her."

Are they easier to bully?

Kyosuke Kosaka asked curiously, "Do you often bully your sister?"

Shina glared at him, raised her chin, and refused to answer.

"You did get one thing right: she and your sister are both lazy. They could easily do the housework themselves, but they insist on waiting for others to do it."

He can't stand anyone being lazier than him, except for his girlfriend. But he absolutely can't tolerate Touma's laziness; he has to correct her: "I asked her to cook you something delicious for lunch, so I'm here to wake her up now..."

After struggling for a while between the delicious food and the "new friend who looks a lot like my sister," Shino, true to her conscience, chose the former and tacitly accepted her brother-in-law's rude act of waking up Touma.

"Sleeping in late should be resisted, right, Xiaoshina? Diligent people should get up early and go out to buy groceries and cook delicious food!"

Shino puffed out her cheeks; she was easily swayed by this kind of thing and nodded in agreement: "That's right, hunger is a great enemy."

Once he received permission, he stood on the balcony next to the music room, holding a violin he didn't know when he had bought it.

"Touma Kazusa! Are you still alive? Make a sound!"

Touma was woken up by the shout, cursed angrily, and then curled up under the covers: "So annoying, so annoying..."

After a long silence, he began his morning music presentation.

To be honest, Kyosuke Kosaka wasn't like Eriri Sawamura, a commoner who didn't understand music. Even if he wanted to make the music bad, he couldn't, so the violin music was very melodious.

The early birds were startled away by the sound, and the spring morning light turned into a warm white, with the occasional glimpse of cherry blossom red in my eyes.

Such beautiful morning light, paired with such beautiful music, could be better than anything else.

However, some people didn't appreciate it.

About forty minutes later, Touma Kazusa stormed onto the balcony again, roaring, "Are you ever going to stop?! Are you ever going to stop?! Has your brain circuit turned into a loop?! You've played this rondo over and over again twelve times... twelve times! Are you trying to pick a fight?"

"fourteen."

"..."

Kyosuke calmly corrected her mistake and changed the key from G major to C major: "Fourteen times is your limit... Whenever I repeat it close to fourteen times, you will appear in front of me like a bear, looking extremely agitated."

"..."

"No need to recall, this is the third time already."

"Okay, I'm up now. Please stop playing your weird music, okay?"

He laughed merrily, continuing his violin melody, which grew increasingly cheerful: "This is actually an original melody inspired by Eriri Ri-chan's piano playing! How about it? Does it help you wake up?"

Get up!

Laundry, cooking, and cleaning!

Uncle Spencer's request was really simple.

Therefore, this smile is the smile of a victor.

However, people often can't see who is truly the winner. For example, drunk people often act like winners, but in reality, it's the alcohol that wins and the person who loses.

For example, the various emotions between men and women, those who are intoxicated by their little moments of pride usually lose in the end.

Kyosuke Kosaka may have some experience and expertise in "sexual incest," but ultimately he doesn't understand "between men and women" very well—just as his mother said when he was in junior high school.

If he continues to treat relationships with a utilitarian mindset, he will inevitably suffer an unimaginable defeat sooner or later.

Miss Touma laughed in fury, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked: "Well, I really should thank you! You—"

"You're welcome, it's my pleasure."

"..."

She stared at the elegant young man for a long time, then slumped helplessly on the balcony, her expression resembling the four of bamboo in mahjong.

There's a line from an American movie from the last century: Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.

This is used to describe how life is full of surprises.

Touma Kazusa was pleasantly surprised to find a different flavor, although she didn't quite understand why pistachios had popped out of the chocolate box.

She didn't experience the joy of the pistachio in the metaphor; she only knew that she had probably met her nemesis in life.

Chapter Thirty-Five: Instant Familiarity, Eyebrows Read a Book

Since I live in Tokyo, how could I not visit Ogiso's house?

Actually, I'm not afraid of being laughed at, but he hadn't seen Setsuna Ogiso for two months and actually missed her a little.

It's not surprising that Kyosuke Kousaka, as a male, would be interested in beautiful things.
