Anime Heart

Yako hadn't called him since Zhou Tian's family went on their trip, so he was just mentioning it casually.

But Ako was stunned, and this reaction told Arima Kento that he had guessed correctly.

"Um, um, there are indeed some things..." Ako replied somewhat hesitantly. Although they were family, Ako was still a little timid.

Hearing Yako's reaction, Arima Xiandong found it amusing but also felt a pang of heartache. He realized he needed to take better care of the child in the future.

"Just tell me what's wrong! I'll do my best to fulfill it; that's my promise as your older brother," said Arima Kento.

Although it was a bit cringeworthy, it was very effective. Ayako's nervousness disappeared, and she was able to speak normally again.

"It's really not a big deal!"

Yako expressed her wish that Arima Kento would have time to help her with her studies.

Arima Kento blinked; he hadn't expected it to be like this.

He had heard a little about Ako's academic situation. She was even worse than Arima Kousei!

Why are all the underachievers around me suddenly studying so hard? Too lazy to investigate the reasons, Arima Kento, thinking that it doesn't matter if he lets one sheep graze or two, agreed to Ayako's request.

However, since the two were quite far apart, Arima Kento suggested video teaching, and he and Arima Ayako connected via computer video.

However, he also thought that the video chat might not be very effective, so Ma Xiandong hesitated again.

But at that moment, Ayako's phone call suddenly went to someone else. It was Risa Taneda's voice that came through, "Since Ayako asked you to tutor her, then just wait a bit! Your sister will be there soon."

"Oh dear! Let Ayako come over, but it's almost eight o'clock already!" Arima Kento responded subconsciously.

Risa Taneda said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I'll have a driver pick Ako up and drop her off. There's no danger at all, so you should be relieved!"

"Alright! I'll eat first and wait for Aya to come over." Since the other party had already said that, Arima Kento had no reason to refuse.

After hanging up the phone, Arima Kousei looked at Arima Kento with some confusion. He had also heard some of the conversation, but not the whole thing.

Arima Kento picked up his chopsticks and began to explain to Arima Kousei while eating.

After understanding everything, Arima Kousei didn't object, or rather, it wouldn't have mattered anyway. He was just someone who received help, and if he dared to offer any opinions, he might be looked down upon by Arima Kento.

After quickly finishing dinner, Arima Kento still had no intention of helping Arima Kousei wash the dishes.

Arima Kousei gave his younger brother a complicated look, then resignedly carried the empty plate to the kitchen.

The two of them have a clear division of labor when it comes to cooking and washing dishes.

Sitting in the living room, Ma Xiandong didn't feel uncomfortable at all because his sister was about to arrive; in fact, he was very calm about tutoring.

In his past life, he had worked as a tutor, so this was nothing special.

Taking out his phone, Yu Ma Xian Dong thought of what happened this afternoon—the black cat that loved canelés—so he searched for the question, 'Can cats eat sweets?'

But the result surprised him greatly.

Cats don't like sweets, not because they're harmful, but because they can't taste them. Research has found that felines have a defective gene that prevents them from sensing sweetness. If fed sweets, they'll find them tasteless and might even become agitated. —Animal Encyclopedia

My goodness!! The cat doesn't eat sweets?? Then why did Kuroko eat the canelé that Kaori Miyazono brought it?

Kaori Miyazono wouldn't lie to herself about this, nor would she need to.

Suddenly, Ma Xiandong's imagination ran wild, and a beautiful chapter about humans and animals appeared in his mind.

A black cat, abandoned by its owner, wanders the streets of Tokyo. It has no owner to feed it regularly, nor a safe and warm place to live.

It might even be attacked and killed by stray dogs, beaten to death by bad kids, or killed and eaten by bad people at any time.

These two types of people do exist; there are always some self-righteous individuals who inflict cruelty on these poor animals.

Moreover, there is indeed a custom of eating cat meat in some places.

And so, the helpless, pitiful, miserable, yet rather adorable black cat arrived at its destined place: a residential area near the Municipal Sumiya Junior High School in Nerima Ward.

One evening, fate intervened when Kaori Miyazono, who had nothing to do, discovered this black cat on her way to school.

Kaori Miyazono, who has always loved small animals, felt a sense of goodwill towards the black cat and wanted to approach and pet its fur.

But how could a black cat, so wary of its own, suddenly accept someone's kindness?

So it started running, constantly weaving through the residential area, enjoying the happiness of being a cat, one of the few joys it could have.

However, the blonde angel did not give up. Even though she was panting heavily, she did not take her eyes off the black cat.

"Hey, do you eat canelés?" The blonde angel looked at the black cat, smiled slightly, and exuded an aura that could infect people.

The black cat stopped for some reason. Although it didn't like sweets, it was still attracted by the smell of canelés, as it hadn't eaten for several days.

Even if it tastes bland and tasteless, it's still much better than starving to death! That's what it thought.

Slowly, he approached the squatting girl step by step.

The angel placed the canelé in her hand on the ground in front of her and smiled as she watched the black cat approach.

For the first time since being abandoned by its owner, the black cat felt warmth and suddenly wanted to get close to the human in front of it.

"Meow!" Hey, I want to eat more!

The blonde angel nodded, as if she understood, and poured all the canelés she was carrying onto the ground, watching the black cat eat them one by one.

Seeing that the cat hadn't left, the blonde angel tried reaching out her palm and gently placing it on the cat's head, rubbing it.

"Let me give you a name! How about 'Black Charcoal'? BlackC! 'Black' means black color, and 'C' is the code for the element charcoal. What do you think? Aren't I good at naming things?"

"Meow!!" That's awful, it sounds awful! Who would call themselves a piece of pitch-black charcoal?! Even though I am black, I'm a luminous pearl, okay?! At the very least, you could call me a black pearl!

"Hehe!" The blonde angel grinned slyly. "Looks like you agree. From now on, I'll call you Charcoal!"

From that day on, the blonde angel would come every day and bring some canelés for the black cat, Kuroko.

Although the charcoal was as tasteless as chewing wax, it had to finish all the food brought by the angel, otherwise, this fool might be sad!

This state continued until Kaori Miyazono left. After Kaori went to the capital for medical treatment, Kurozumi regained his freedom.

But this time it wasn't happy at all, because the angel hadn't come to see it for several days.

It's okay, I'll wait for her! Our Blackie has a very resilient spirit!

Days passed, and the charcoal still waited.

However, instead of the angels it was waiting for, five boys who looked about the same size as the angels arrived. They also held canelés, but they didn't have that angelic feel, so it wouldn't go out.

I must wait for the angel to come! Black Charcoal clenched his claws into a fist with determination.

Of course, the above is just Arima Kento's personal speculation. We'll have to ask Miyazono Kaoru to know the truth.

However, because of this wild idea, he suddenly had a bold thought: maybe he could successfully bring the cat back tomorrow using this method!

He wanted to elaborate on the steps of this method, but upon hearing the sound of a car outside the door, Ma Xiandong knew that it was Ayako who had arrived.

Anyway, there's still time, let's deal with this later!

"Yako, I've missed you a bit these past two days!" It was Arima Kousei who opened the door, and he was even more enthusiastic than Arima Kento.

Upon seeing Ako's face, Arima Kousei uttered words that greatly surprised and puzzled Arima Kento.

Kousei Arima, who is usually quite shy, is now being so enthusiastic towards Ako, which is really a bit unusual!

Arima Kento thought for a moment and roughly understood Arima Kousei's psychological state.

It's actually very simple; it's the same feeling of cherishing family as I do. It's just that Kousei Arima doesn't know how to express it right now, which is why he's acting this way.

But this enthusiasm made Ayako somewhat frightened, or rather, apprehensive.

He used to be the one who gave her the cold shoulder, but now he's the one being so enthusiastic. Yako felt both strange and a little scared.

Its big eyes blinked rapidly, its body subconsciously took two steps back, and its mouth was tightly pursed. If you put a tail on it and put on cat ears, it would look exactly like a frightened kitten.

Ayako's reaction was a huge blow to Kousei Arima, who had finally mustered the courage to speak up; his heart ached.

Fortunately, Ma Xiandong noticed something was wrong and quickly pulled Ayako into the room, while gesturing to Kousei to bring drinks, fruit, snacks, and other things.

"Does the driver want to come in? Hmm, okay! I'll let you know when we're done." After asking the burly driver, Arima Xiandong closed the door.

Closing the door behind you is a good habit.

Ayako was changing her shoes. She was already quite adept at finding the slippers that Sawabe Tsubaki had left there and putting them on herself.

Arima Kousei was nowhere to be seen either; he must have gone to prepare food.

The entryway was rather narrow. As Ma Yako leaned against the wall to take off her shoes, she completely blocked the way. Ma Xiandong had to wait for her to change her shoes before he could go in with her.

However, the situation was somewhat awkward, as Arima Ayako seemed completely unguarded around him. Her slightly pert buttocks were pressed against his stomach.

Arima Kento stood on the ground below the entrance hall, inevitably bowing slightly to avoid any embarrassing situations.

"Hey, brother, what are you still doing here? And why are you standing barefoot on the ground? You'll catch a cold. Come on up and put on some slippers!"

After changing her shoes, Ayako realized that she had shielded Arima Hitoshi behind her, but she didn't seem to realize it yet.

"It's all because you blocked my way!" Arima Kenji thought to himself, then said with a smile, "Ayako, you go in first! I need to find something here. By the way, did you bring your textbooks?"

"Yes, I brought it!" Ako waved the black uniform bag in her hand. The style of this bag was slightly different from the one issued by Arima Kento School.

Their school's uniform bag is a blue and white striped shoulder bag that matches the school uniform, while Ako's is pure black. Although they look similar, they have a different feel to them.

"Well then, brother, I'll go in first!" Yako didn't notice Arima Sento's embarrassment and just smiled as she walked towards the living room.

It was clear that she was in a good mood, not holding a grudge against Kousei Arima's previous behavior, and no longer showing the restraint she had when she first came.

In conclusion, this younger sister finally began to regard herself and Kousei as her family.

The thought crossed his mind, and the evil thoughts naturally dissipated. Arima Kento also stepped onto the floor, put on his slippers, and walked towards the living room.

Upon entering the living room, Arima Kento saw Arima Kousei apologizing to Ako, repenting for his actions of frightening her earlier.

Ayako easily forgave Kousei, saying that these were all minor matters, and the important issue today was that she couldn't do any of her homework!

Arima Kenji rubbed his forehead. Another idiot has joined the ranks. Looks like he's even more of an idiot than Kousei!

Because her brother was tutoring her, Ayako used the time she spent in the car on the way there to do her homework for the first time.
