Chapter 35 - Worried Little Sister 2_2

[Kimi POV]

"Big sis! Big sis Eclaite!"

None, none, none! There is no answer. With this, I'm sure, big sis left the house without telling me, Again! Even though I warned her many times, Big sis should not go out of the house if the medicine given by papa Wielth has not run out.

It's frustrating, she never heard my warning.

I left the house for two reasons. Looking for big sis and scolding big sis after I found her.

Finding my big sis is easy. That's because big sis won't go too far from home.

Although big sis hates Papa Wielth, she never ignores what he says. Big sis always obeyed him. Therefore, when papa forbidding my big sis not to go further from the market, I'm sure big sis must have obeyed it.

I went around the complex and accidentally met my best friend Chloe and her brother Alan.

Realizing where I am, Chloe smiles and waves her arms. "Kimi! Kimi! Want to play?"

Chloe invite me to play. It's feels so fun and so tempting. I want to accept it. But unfortunately, "I can't play right now. Maybe after my mission is done."

"Ohh..." A strange noise comes out of Chloe's mouth, who feels sad.

I feel bad for Chloe. But now, finding my big sis is more important. I'll cheer her up later.

"I'm sure the mission you said just now was to find sis Eclaite."

"Huh? Alan, how do you know?"

"That's because I saw sis Eclaite."

"Really? Where?"

"I saw sis Eclaite in the park. For a while, she stand under a big tree in the center of the park"

My ears twitched when I heard Alan's answer. Big sis must be transfixed again. "Thank you, Alan. Chloe, we'll play later. I want to pick up my big sis first."

"Okay."

"Need help?"

I shook my head slowly. "No Alan, I'm fine. I'll see you later."

"See you later," they reply together.

With that, I go to the park. I went around the place for a while before finally, I found my big sis.

I gave big sis her medicine. And after big sis woke up, I forced her to go home.

Once again, I remind my big sis not to get out of the house alone. I didn't scold her because I couldn't bear it.

After big sis fell asleep, I went to play with Chloe, Alan, and the others.

-----[✥]-----

A month passed.

The medicine left by papa Wielth ran out. Big sis's condition is improving slowly. Big sis has rarely been transfixed again. She can do daily activities without hindrance.

Unfortunately... Big sis lost some of her memory again and she… she's become weird.

"I'm late for school. Kimi! Where are my books? Did you also see my smartphone?"

That's it! Big sis did it again. She said strange words that I didn't understand.

A smartphone? What is that?

"Calm down big sis. You don't have to go to school. Besides, what is a smartphone?"

Big sis turned around, she looked at me and put on a confused face. "A smartphone? What's that thing?"

"How do I know! Big sis who said it!"

Big sis tilted her head a little. She put on a thought-in look. Her ears twitch while her tail swings awkwardly. A while later she shook her head.

"There's no point thinking about things we don't know. Now and better yet, let's make breakfast. What dish do you want, Kimi?"

"Grilled sausage," I replied without hesitation.

Big sis nodded and stroked my head. "Let's make a delicious grilled sausage."

That way, our day starts with making breakfast together.

And of course, big sis's weirdness continues.

-----[✥]-----

Almost two months have passed since papa Wielth left. I'm sad that papa hasn't come home yet. At the same time, I'm glad big sis's condition is getting better.

This opposite feeling makes me restless.

"I'll be home when the third bell rings."

Those words were said by a beautiful golden-haired Fox-kin girl when she goes out this morning. The girl's ears and tail are so beautiful. And this beautiful girl I'm telling you about is my big sis Eclaite! She is my pride and I want to be like her.

Beautiful, kind, and compassionate.

But... I don't want to be weird like her.

Right, I did say "weird" and it's the fact that Big Sis is weird.

Hmm... How do I say it? Big sis's weirdness... she um... sometimes she doesn't understand the common sense that people used.

For example, when bathing. As people get used to using cloths and a bucket of warm water to wash their bodies, big sis Eclaite bathes using artificial rain. She named the way of bathing like that 'Shower' really, the name and way of bathing she uses are strange.

Big sis's other weirdness, she often says strange words. Internet, manga, VR online games, television, smartphones, videos, and many other strange words that I don't understand the meaning of.

And you need to know, those words are not part of a Spell. Papa Wielth is a mage. He knows dozens of Spells and he doesn't know what big sis's words mean. Therefore, I'm sure that the strange words that big sis sometimes says are not part of a Spell.

There's one other weirdness that belongs to big sis. This one also I don't want to copy. That weirdness is the hate that big sis Eclaite has for papa Wielth.

In fact, Papa always spoils and almost fulfills big sis's wishes. Papa also goes to great lengths to heal big sis. Therefore, I don't understand big sis's unreasonable hatred. I don't like that weirdness.

And oh! We're out of topic!

I don't want to talk about big sis weirdness! I want to talk about a promise she broke!

Big sis promises to go home before the third bell rings! And now, the afternoon is coming! Big sis's figure has not been seen at home. This means she's not home yet. It means, "she lied to me." I said that phrase and left the house.

My goal is only one. I have to find big sis Eclaite.

Big sis says she wants to visit the Adventurer's Guild. So, there I'm going. I'm an adult, I was thirteen, so I could go around the city all I wanted.

I'm not afraid to go alone either. And more importantly, I'm not blind to directions. I won't get lost easily like my big sis!

Oh! And that, getting lost easily is also one of Big Sis's weirdness. That's right, big sis is so weird, she knew that the place she wanted to visit was obviously at the end of the road. And spectacularly, big sis will end up in the opposite direction.

Now... I'm worried, did big sis make it to Adventurer's Guild?

Minutes passed. When I got there and I didn't find big sis. As I thought, big sis is got lost!

Ugh... I get dizzy when I think about how long and how hard it is to find my big sis in this town. Of course, I won't give up. I'll find big sis by the end of the day.

In the middle of the search, I met Chloe. With her help and some other kids, I managed to find my big sis. I never thought that all this time, big sis was adventuring with Alan!

Then, I was so shocked and saddened when big sis Eclaite forgot about me. Luckily, big sis regains her memories immediately.

And the days after that incident became more colorful and fun. Unfortunately, papa Wielth hasn't come home yet.. I want him to feel this happiness too.
