I really don't want to be reborn.

"Ah...we'll probably be eating out today."

He pushed away his mother's gossipy face and said helplessly, "Yes, I went out with her today. We were together from morning to evening. I have to take her home in the evening."

Jia Nai's mother was relieved and delighted. With a wave of her hand, she said, "Then I'll make it for you again when I get back tonight. Dad doesn't mind, does he?"

Mr. Daisuke, who was reading the newspaper, had no objection.

He had remained silent since his son returned home last night, trying to preserve his authority as the head of the family. But when he glanced at his daughter, he noticed that Kirino's expression had suddenly turned quite unpleasant.

He frowned.

Kirino was unhappy for a simple reason.

Kyosuke, who only goes home during holidays, went out with Kasumigaoka Utaha today, so naturally she wasn't happy.

Kirino is too attached to her brother.

This is not a good thing. Sigh, I can only hope that Kyosuke can handle it properly.

The television was still playing programs, filled with laughter because of the holiday, but Kirino became absent-minded.

After quickly finishing her meal, she suddenly put on her shoes and gave an apologetic smile: "Mom, I'm sorry, there's a special effects shoot today, so I have to go."

It's a very common and lame excuse, but it's very useful.

She would make an excuse to go out, and then follow Kyosuke either secretly or openly when he left.

She's his sister!

What's wrong with walking together?

If we can't sleep together, does that mean we can't even walk together?

She knew perfectly well what her actions meant: she was ruining her brother's relationship, which was immoral and extremely wrong, and her conscience was constantly condemning her.

but……

An inexplicable force was driving her, as if she were caught in a storm, watching herself turn bad but powerless to stop it.

The mind cannot control the body, so the body experiences a kind of traitorous pleasure!

But today, her go-to excuse didn't work. Her mother stared at her menacingly: "Say it again, what are you going to do? You just said last night that it was a holiday..."

"It's true!"

"Give me your boss's phone number, I'll ask him."

After her mother took it seriously, Kirino immediately backed down and obediently stayed at home. She had no choice but to change her clothes and go out with her mother to go shopping, where she was praised by the ladies in the neighborhood.

What's the point...?

…………

The restaurant where I had lunch with Kasumigaoka was near McDonald's.

The sunlight was intense; in Hai Zi's words, it was like a whip and blood that spurred the growth of all things—and as May approached, it grew even stronger, and the weather became increasingly hot. At this time of year, young people began to wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts, looking lively and enthusiastic.

It's just like a bustling ukiyo-e painting.

Meanwhile, Kyosuke Kousaka and Utaha Kasumigaoka strolled through the streets, their figures appearing faint, as if they were merely insignificant details.

"It's strange."

"what?"

"I was already prepared for your sister to come along. Didn't she come? Or is she following us somewhere?"

Kyosuke paused slightly, a hint of annoyance in his voice: "I always felt that you had some kind of prejudice against my sister. Kirino's bad personality is only because she's going through puberty; she's actually a good person."

Kasumigaoka pointed to herself: "I'm going through puberty too."

"How can you be so shameless?"

As soon as you push open the restaurant door, a wave of heat hits you, with steaming hot food everywhere. Sitting in your seat, Kasumigaoka's face is enveloped by the steam from the hot pot, making it appear blurry.

In that instant, the girl turned her face slightly to the side, and her profile was beautiful, reminding him of a rainbow that briefly appeared after a heavy rain.

"Would you like some twisted dough sticks?"

"I'm easygoing, I can eat anything."

Kasumigaoka Utaha ordered food with her head down, casually talking about school: "Um... the student council came to see me yesterday and asked if I wanted to do a well-prepared broadcast next week?"

"What do you mean?"

The girl's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Didn't we have a fight in the broadcasting room last time? They thought it was very interesting."

Although it's a very niche literature department, there are always people who care about it.

Kyosuke Kosaka was surprised to find himself like a married woman in his workplace, still being thought about by his male colleagues even while on maternity leave.

"What do you think?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't say anything. Of course, she had refused outright yesterday because Kousaka Kyosuke's illness hadn't fully healed and he couldn't overexert himself.

"You refused?"

"Ah."

Although it wasn't something to brag about, it wouldn't hurt to talk about it. Kyosuke seemed to have read her mind, and his mood, mixed with his appetite, became very good. He lowered his voice and leaned closer to her.

"I also find arguing with you quite interesting."

"..."

"I want to argue with you every day."

—The word "天天" is used quite cleverly.

…………

After having lunch, they spent the afternoon strolling around, and before heading back, they went to the hospital.

"Did you follow my doctor's orders from last week?"

The female doctor on duty in the duty room waved to Kyosuke: "If not, you'll need an injection today."

The boy shook his head abruptly, then nodded quickly: "I have it, I have it."

"Lie down obediently!"

The doctor made him lie face down, and Kyosuke Kosaka felt a strange sense of fear. He wasn't even afraid of death, but now he was afraid of injections...

"Relax, it won't hurt this time."

"I believe it."

The female doctor looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha: "You take his pants off."

The girl got to work with great enthusiasm. She wasn't interested in his buttocks, so she went around to the front and began to appreciate his expression of shame, indignation, and nervous clenching of his teeth. She breathed a slight sigh of relief—he wasn't actually as aloof and indifferent as he appeared; he was a normal person.

Half an hour after the screams, the boy and girl walked out of the hospital together. The girl was so happy she could hardly contain herself, and suggested, "Want to get something to eat first?"

Kyosuke Kosaka hung his head and asked, "Was what I did just now embarrassing?"

"hey-hey……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha, unusually, burst out laughing. She tried to hold it in but couldn't, and after laughing for a while, she said, "I rarely see you make a fool of yourself. At least I haven't seen you make a fool of yourself this year."

Hearing this heartfelt laughter, Kyosuke couldn't get angry, so he could only say helplessly, "I don't think there's anything funny about it."

"Yes, you must have had more embarrassing and stupid experiences in your life than this."

He nodded.

"What...is that?"

She turned to look at him excitedly, like a little girl experiencing love for the first time.

Kyosuke smiled and shook his head.

The most embarrassing things happened when I was a child, and the most foolish thing was breaking my heart into pieces—how can you even say that?

"Hey, Kasumigaoka."

"Ok?"

The tram sped past the two of them.

"Let's stay together in college, okay?"

------

I feel like slacking off, but my body is honestly typing away.

This creates a sense of pleasure in betrayal.

The pleasure was so intense that...

I'm out of toilet paper, so could you please give me some money to clean this up?

Chapter Twenty-Two: The emptiness is gone, but the river still flows.

"What's wrong, Mom? You sound like you're in a good mood. Did you accidentally bump into a lamppost again while walking?"

"Oh dear, Kyosuke, I didn't hit my head."

One day at the end of May, he was talking on the phone with Jia Nai's mother.

Kasumigaoka moved back two weeks ago and left.

Firstly, because he had recovered from his illness and no longer needed anyone to take care of him; secondly, because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself...

Make sense.

So, if a beautiful girl with a great personality, great temperament, and great looks sleeps with someone every night, no more than 20 centimeters apart, who could resist?

It's only because Kousaka Kyosuke has a strong will and is currently ill that he hasn't done anything outrageous so far.

But that's about it.

He didn't know if he could continue living together with his wife.

Or rather...

He didn't know if Kasumigaoka Utaha would be able to hold back.
