Chapter 34 "Reversal of Position"

"I’m sleepy ..."

Waking up from the sunlight shining through the gaps in the curtains, I was preparing to go to school while trying my best to open my heavy eyelids.

After brushing my teeth, taking a shower to get rid of my sleep, and washing my face, i was still drowsy.

( it would better to start running again.)

--Ping Pong!

"Hmm ...? Who is this early in the morning ...?"

No one had ever come so early in the morning before , so I opened the door with suspicion.

Then--

""Good morning, , onii chan .."(in Japanese)

--A very cute angel smiled and greeted me.

"Oh, Emma-chan? Can you speak Japanese?"

I inadvertently spoke in Japanese to Emma who greeted me in Japanese.

"...?"

Of course, Emma, who didn’t understand Japanese properly, tilted her head for not knowing what I was saying.

After that, she nodded with a smile and spread her arms all the way to stare at my face.

Apparently, she was asking for "Dako".

( TN: dako" can be translated from Japanese to mean "to hug a child or carry a child in your arms" in English)

I don’t think she understood what I was saying, but she nodded anyway . ......

It was my fault for speaking to her in Japanese to begin with, so I stopped worrying about it and bent down.

When I adjusted my eyes to the height of Emma, She also slowly greeted me with a smile, "Goo..good morning ."

It seemed that she remembered Japanese greetings, so I thought I’d help Emma get used to Japanese quickly.

"Ah-good morning, "(in Japanese)

I guess she was happy that I greeted her in the same way

The appearance of her smiling happily was very cute.

Then I decided to fulfill the request that Emma first requested.

As i reached out for her small body, Emma’s eyes shined with happiness .

I hugged her tightly so that she wouldn’t fall, and then lifted her up, and Emma also clinged to me with her arms around my neck.

Then, she gave a cheek kiss as usual.

(This girl really is a spoiled child .)

But thats what makes her so cute ...

When she said "Onii-chan" in Japanese, I really wanted her to become my sister.

She said a while ago that she wanted to be able to speak Japanese, but I was also impressed by how hard she was trying to remember it properly.

(...... By the way, why did Emma come to my room so early ?)

When I was wondering, I felt a sign of a person from the door.

When I looked up, I saw Charlotte, who was looking at me with only her head out of the door.

"Ah ... good morning ..."

Charlotte greeted me with a faint voice.

Her face gradually hid behind the door.

...... Charlotte said she wasn’t scared, but after all it looks like she’s scared ...

( She’s trying to hide behind the door Because she’s scared of me...?)

"Good morning"

Although I was shocked in my heart, I greeted her with a smile so that she wouldn’t realize it.

"Oh, I’m sorry to bother so early in the morning..."

"No, it’s okay, but ... what up?"

I stared at Charlotte as I dealt with Emma, who was being spoiled in my arms.

Then Charlotte came out of the door, but for some reason, she mumbled something in a small voice while fidgeting with her fingers together.

It was so small that I couldn’t make out what she said at all.

"Excuse me, what did you say?"

I thought it was bad to ask back, but I couldn’t reply appropriately in this situation.

Besides, She came all the way early in the morning, so I thought must be a very important task.

"That ... breakfast ... can we eat with you ..."

"……e?"

"So ... breakfast ... together ..."

"What?"

"So ............... Aoyagi-kun, Stop messing around ... You can definitely hear it ..."

When I listened to it many times, Charlotte, who had been moody, swelled her cheeks.

No, I was sure that I heard her the second time, but my brain just couldn’t catch up.

If it was just for breakfast, she had asked me yesterday.

But the reason she asked me yesterday was because we were together in the morning.

But today she not only came all the way to my house, but also invited me with an embarrassing attitude.

This is-isn’t it too good to expect?

Maybe Charlotte was just shy, not scared?

...... No, calm down me.

It is really too convenient for me, I cant just say “yes” straightout .

If I make a mistake here, I may be regarded as an embarrassing narcissist.

Maybe she wasn’t scared of me, she was just shy, but it was quite possible that she wasn’t shy out of fondness for me, but just shy because of yesterday’s incident .

Anyway, it would be embarrassing to invite someone of the opposite sex to eat, especially in the morning.

"Oh, that ... Aoyagi-kun you told me that you want to eat my food every day ... E, Emma also wanted to eat with Aoyagi-kun ... So ... that ... …that……"

When I was late in replying because I was thinking, Charlotte hurriedly spun out these words.

Gradually, she was in tears.

"I’m sorry, I was thinking a little. I’m very happy that you came all the way to make breakfast. Thank you."

I thanked her with a smile so that she could be relieved.

I was really happy that I was invited by her.

Perhaps no one could have refused such an invitation from her.

( If people around me know that I\"m in such a situation, everyone will be hostile  due to jealousy ...)

After that, I have one thought.

Until now, I would have been nervous when she invited me to eat or if her face came close to me.

But now, for some reason Charlotte is so nervous that I was able to calm.

I thought that people could stay calm when someone is more nervous than they are.
