Miku lowered her head, nervously fiddling with a strand of her long hair in her other hand.

She was incredibly excited, but when it was actually her turn, she didn't know what to do.

Because the images that flashed through my mind were things that absolutely could not be done in this situation.

It has to be somewhere deserted, even if it's just an empty alleyway connecting to a bustling main street. I just don't know if Kira-kun would like that...

The girl's cheeks grew increasingly flushed, and even her fair earlobes and neck gradually took on a rosy hue.

"Hmm~"

Nakano Satsuki was still unwilling to give up. She picked up her fried noodles and prepared to go around to the side, thinking that she should at least let Kira-kun have a bite.

Everyone else can do it, so why can't she?

and so……

"Snapped!"

Ichika gently pulled her arm and softly warned, "Don't disturb Miku, okay?"

"Why should you be allowed to do it?!"

Nakano Satsuki glared at Ichika with a mixture of shame and anger. You guys were just watching like crazy when it was her turn!

Now it's her turn but not hers, isn't that a double standard?

I never expected you to be like this, Ichika!

"They're different."

Nakano Ichika's expression was incredibly gentle. "Miku has endured and given far more than we have. This is what she deserves."

Miku is someone who has died once.

Although they all believed they could make sacrifices for Kira without hesitation, only Miku actually took action.

In any case, at least for the time being, let her and Kira be alone together.

However, it only lasts for ten minutes.

If they were to hold an impart event, they would still participate without hesitation, at most letting Miku lead the way.

Anyway, Miku's abilities aren't enough to satisfy Kira-kun, so what can she do but let her sisters help her out?

Otherwise, we can't let outsiders benefit from it, can we?

Nino Nakano smiled and whispered a threat in her ear:

"If you keep causing trouble, you won't be allowed to participate in the inpart tonight!"

Satsuki Nakano's eyes turned indignant. This was bullying! Blatant bullying!

hateful!

Am I not your youngest sister?

Why is it that no one gives in to me at all?

It was the same before; it was clearly her ability, but the one who stole it was Ichika.

He was clearly in the same class as Kira-kun, shouldn't she be far ahead?

But why is it that in practice, she is the one who suffers the most?

Rather, why is it that she's always the one who suffers the loss?

Yotsuba Nakano gently comforted her:

"May, don't you really like fried noodles? Let us feed you."

"Hmm~ Four Leaves!"

I shed tears of emotion in May; it turns out, only you are truly good to me!

They are not their biological children; they were raised by their stepfather. Only we are their biological sisters!

So, do you want to eat?

Nakano Ichika blinked, picked up a scrambled noodle with her chopsticks, parted her cherry lips slightly, and pretended to eat it. "If you're not going to eat it, then give it to me!"

"Awoo~!"

Nakano Satsuki quickly took a bite of the fried noodles and glared angrily at Nakano Nino.

Not only did she steal my man, but now she wants to eat my fried noodles!

Unforgivable!

I'll remember this grudge!

-----------------

"Kira-kun,"

Nakano Miku, holding a bag full of ningyo-yaki (doll-shaped cakes) in one hand, suddenly whispered:

"The fireworks festival is a very important day for us."

Yoshikage Kira led the girl by the hand as they strolled along the path, where pedestrians were becoming increasingly scarce and the lights were dim.

Is it because of your mother?

"Hmm~"

Nakano Miku nodded gently, her eyes filled with nostalgia. "Fireworks are a memory of my mother. She loved watching fireworks, and we would go together every year. Even though she's no longer here, we still go together every year. For us, fireworks are just that kind of thing."

The girl stopped, tilted her head back, and her eyes softened even more:

“My mother once told us that perhaps one day she would no longer be able to watch fireworks with us, but we would eventually meet someone who would watch fireworks with us, and he would accompany us to watch every fireworks display for the rest of our lives.”

The girl paused slightly, then mustered her courage and opened her cherry lips:

"So, I..."

Excuse me.

Two women wearing name tags appeared before them, interrupting the girl's preparation:

"We are reporters here at the fireworks festival to conduct a questionnaire survey. May I ask what your relationship is?"

"Hmm~"

Nakano Miku immediately deflated, losing her previous courage.

As if to give her courage, Yoshikage Kira raised his hand, which was intertwined with the girl's, his expression calm and natural:

"We are lovers who will watch fireworks together for the rest of our lives."

Nakano Miku looked up in surprise, her eyes softening, and softly replied:

"Yes, we are lovers."

Their gazes finally fell upon the two men's intertwined hands, and smiles of blessing appeared on their faces:

"Ah, congratulations! We're sorry to have bothered you, we'll take our leave now."

Kira Yoshikage watched the two reporters leave, and when he looked down, he realized that Nakano Miku was still looking up at him, the girl's gaze seemingly never leaving him for a moment.

Yoshikage Kira took the girl's hand and whispered:

"Let's go."

"Mmm~"

Nakano Miku gently shook her head, loosened her grip on his small hand, and gently smoothed out the wrinkles on Kira Yoshikage's clothes:

"Kira-kun, ten minutes have passed. Are there other people waiting for you? Then please don't keep them waiting."

In the distance, the four Nakano sisters had been watching quietly. Seeing the two separate, Nino immediately waved to them:

"Miku! It's time to go~!"

Nakano Miku reluctantly took a step back and whispered a word of advice:

"Kira-kun, remember to find us!"

The girl smiled and deliberately didn't tell Kira Yoshikage where the rooftop they had booked was.

So, this can be considered a little test she gave Kira-kun!

"Yes, it definitely will."

After all, they had made a promise to watch the fireworks together.

-----------------

At the intersection where they met up with the five sisters, the nine μ's, dressed in yukatas, stood gracefully under the streetlight.

Rin Hoshizora whispered to herself:

"Hanayo-chan, don't keep staring at your phone!"

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Koizumi Hanayo blushed slightly and whispered, "The ranking is rising too fast, I can't help but want to keep an eye on it."

Minami Kotori asked curiously:

"Hey~ how many cats are there now?"

Koizumi Hanayo held up five fingers.

Honoka Kousaka asked somewhat uncertainly:

"Fifty?"

μ's was previously ranked outside the top 100, so a jump of nearly 50 places was already quite remarkable in her eyes.

"It's fifth place!"

Koizumi Hanayo corrected, her expression incredibly excited, "And the rankings are still rising! This is only one afternoon, in a few days we might be able to break into the top three, no, even first place isn't out of the question!"

Sonoda Umi's small mouth opened slightly into an "O" shape: "Is it that exaggerated?"

"Hmph! That's not an exaggeration at all!"

Yazawa Ne snorted and proudly put her hands on her hips. "This is what we deserve!"
