Chapter 65 Sister's Intuition

"Ilya-nee, toile..."

Oh, Yuika-chan has fully recovered her consciousness, she was just still half asleep a minute ago.

"Alright, let's go"

I reach Yuika-chan's hand and help her to get off the bed, I think she's still hasn't fully gathered all her consciousness, she still looks sleepy and tying to rubbed off her eye dropping, she looks so cute walking with her eyes still closed like this.

"Ah, Ilya-sama, Good morning, you and Yuika-sama seems to wake up pretty early today"

Someone suddenly called my name, I look up in front of me and see Marina-san is walking in the hallway, she looks so mature and elegant, her curly long white hair reminds me of Erwin, the way she ties it with a ponytail style makes it looks simple but still elegant.

"Marina-san, Good morning, Yuika-chan said she wanted to go to the bathroom"

"Then, may I accompany her to the bathroom?"

"Ah, it's fine Marina-san, I will accompany her, I also wanted to look around the house so it's fine"

"I see, then Ilya-sama, please take your time, I will be in the kitchen preparing for the breakfast, if you need anything, just call me anytime"

"Ah, yes"

"Then, I shall take my leave"

Marina-san gives us a bow before she left, Yuika-chan is starting to tugging on my sleeve, I think she's trying to tell me that she really wanted to go to the bathroom now.

"I'm sorry Yuika-chan, let's go"

I accompany her until we arrive in the bathroom, I wait outside and let Yuika-chan take her time in the bathroom, I lean onto the wall and watch around me, this house is so big no matter how I see it, the first time I came here I lost when I wanted to go to bathroom, that time I was lucky Marina-san found me and accompany me to the bathroom, I guess nobles world are different than us commoners, but even though I'm not a noble, Marina-san keep calling me Ilya-sama, it's a bit embarrassing to be called like that, I had told her before to just called me Ilya but she instantly said "It's against the etiquette code of maid to call young lady's friend without any honorifics, please forgive me, but I have to kindly refuse it" to me.

Yuika-chan comes out from the bathroom and it looks like she's fully woken up now.

"Ilya-nee, can we have breakfast?"

Yuika-chan's belly already growling asking for a morning dis, she looks so cute when she's trying to rub her belly and nervously laughing.

"Marina-san is still preparing for the breakfast now, should we go and help her?"

"But I can't cook..."

Yuika-chan looks down and a bit sad, I know she's not really good with cooking so I wanted to teach her a bit, but I think it's not the right time to do that now.

"How about we make cookies? Elis-san said we will have a little tea party later so let's make cookies for everyone, Ilya-nee will teach you how to make it and Yuika-chan can show it to Erwin later once we return home"

Yuika-chan looks a bit happy and nod, her face is really a picture of young maiden in love, I can't really remember when did exactly she fall for Erwin, they've been together since they're still child and I always been there around them, but I still can't remember when exactly Yuika-chan started to have special feelings towards Erwin, a maiden in love is like a gem in this world, they will constantly blush and red tulips start to blooming all around them, I gave Yuika-chan and Erwin my bless once they get older, they will be a love bird couple in the future, I'm sure of it.

Or so I thought...

Erwin is visiting today, it's something unexpected, Elis-san said to uncle Alto and Erwin they should visit me and stay in her house after their finish with their errand, I believe it's to meet someone named Rosaku-san? uncle Alto said he was the one who gave the books about magic that he ended up giving it to Erwin in the past, Erwin always saying that he wanted to meet Rosaku-san to thank him, Erwin seems to take a liking to this person, he keeps saying that Rosaku-san must be a very talented magician since he was a Royal magic researcher, thinking about that makes me wanted to grit my teeth and bite my nail, thinking about what the kingdom did to us commoners in the past sliced my heart into pieces, but I can't do anything about it, a daughter of a bakery owner doesn't have any power to go against the kingdom.

Erwin is visiting us, and the first sight of him coming is Yuika-chan who's crying, I don't know what happened, but I did something terrible to Yuika-chan by not caring about her at first and just hugged Erwin because I missed him so much, I can't stop myself from hugging him, I let my selfishness won against me.

Once I got back my sense, I let go my hug off Erwin and calmed Yuika-chan down, what surprised me is Erwin brought a really beautiful girl with a long black hair with him, I was so dumbfounded once I realized there was a girl behind Erwin, but I keep myself down and not mention anything about her to our conversation.

Erwin is actually bringing a beautiful girl with him when he visits us, and what bothers me the most is my sister intuition that Erwin and the black-haired girl has some kind of special bounds.

"Who is your name girl?"

"I-I'm Aura, p-pleased to meet you..."

So her name is Aura-chan, I feel like something bad is going to happen, I can understand with just her behavior that she likes Erwin too, it's bad news for Yuika-chan that now she has a rival, I can't help just between one of them as Erwin's big sister, I have to act like a real big sister and treat them fair without giving support only to one of them, at least that's what I thought.

When I saw Aura-chan, I don't know why, but, something in my heart is saying I can't just give Erwin to them, I want to keep Erwin all to myself forever, he's my only reason to live, I can't give him to anyone just like that.

Wait, what am I thinking about, we're siblings, I can't have any thoughts like that, I promised to mom already, I will protect those who weak and my heart flare up when I first met Erwin, something is telling me that I have to take care of him and raise him.

"What's wrong Ilya?"

"Ah, nothing, I just mused a bit"

"What happened? did you still shocked that Erwin-kun brought a beautiful girl with him?"

"Well, that's one thing that was bothering me"

"Hahaha, I think you must be happy that your brother actually popular"

"Well, I think so"

We left Erwin with Yuika-chan and Aura-chan in the front yard, I think Elis-san takes intuition and let them make up, at least that's before Yuika-chan runs to us while crying and tell us something that makes me shocked.

"Erwin-kun.... *sob.. fainted... *sob"

I quickly get up from my seat and run to see what happen.

"Ilya... Wait..."

What happened to Erwin? is it something bad? I can't calm myself down, the apprehensive I feel right now won against my sense.

"Hey, why are you guys running like this"

Ah, uncle Alto, I know Erwin must have come with uncle Alto.

"Erwin..."

Seeing my face full of solicitude, uncle Alto didn't say anything and just followed us from behind.

"I will carry him, hey red-haired girl, show me where to take him to, we have to treat his wound quickly"

"How rude, call me by my name, it's Elis"

"Whatever, we need to help Erwin quickly"

"Just follow me"

I was so shocked that I can't even let out a single word once I saw Erwin laying down on the ground with a wound on his temple, I look at Aura-chan and Yuika-chan still crying and Aura-chan won't even move an inch and looks so gloomy, a guilt was written all over their face so I decided to calm these girls down and let the treatment for Erwin's injury to uncle Alto and Elis-san.

"Erwin will be alright, don't worry, he won't get mad or anything, let's apologize to him later"

I need to remain calm and cool down the tension here, I hug both of them, I need to be a real big sister right now, I can't just let them got eaten by the guilt, I can't let their beautiful face got corrupted by their tear and guilt, I can ask them later to tell me what actually happened once they calmed down and apologize to Erwin.
