Sunday. Nothing much to do in this free day. Unfortunately for the twins, they won’t get leisure time as much as they got in the previous week. That morning they had to get up early, Kei forcefully dragged them into her room.
As Kei had said, she won’t let things go easily. So, the dawn after that night Kei intend to tie her brothers with another pact.
“Don’t ever interfere with my privacy ever again.” She started the speech, wearing her poker face. Unfortunate for the brothers, it’s not work at all.
“We can’t do that neechan. You’re our precious and only sister. How can we let someone hurt you?” Daiki spoke wisely, as if he was talking to her daughter.
“I can protect myself Daiki, I’m an adult.” She defended herself. Seriously, what can a 16 years old boy do to protect her?
“Yes, but there always a chance that you will get hurt.” Daiki insisted. “I won’t let anyone break your heart.” Again, he sounded like a father.
“I know how to…”
“Neechan, please don’t retort anymore. You know, you’re too naive. You can be deceived easily. We proved that.” Ryosuke spoke out, revealing that bitter memory. Kei bit her lower lips. “Who knows what man outside there could do to you.”
“You’re worried too much.” She lost her sentence. What her brothers said indeed right.
“Yes we are. We have the same reason as mom. That’s why she forbids you to dating anyone.” Ryosuke added, acting all cool. Don’t ask where his crybaby image had gone that time.
“You know that Kota-kun is a nice person, so don’t get involved in this anymore.” She pleaded now, it had turned back than her plan in the first time. She had to scold them, not begging like this.
“An angel can turn into a wild beast in anytime neechan.” Daiki refused her wish. He still clearly remembered what Yabu said to them in the car yesterday. ‘Don’t bite Kei. She’s my share’. Although Yabu was just joking that time, he realized it might really happen someday. That’s why he felt really upset and strangled him.
“You don’t believe me?” Kei look disappointed.
“We believe you, but not him.” Daiki ended the conversation and dragged Ryosuke to exit the room with him. “Jya, we want to continue our napping time.” Daiki smiled before he closed the door. Kei sighed heavily, disappoint.

Sunday had gone. The busy days of the week had also passed. In the weekend, the twin would spend their spare time in Kei’s room. They got back their ‘normal’ life after agreeing Kei’s only rule, which she offered that Sunday afternoon. Never stalk me again! Then I would let things pass like nothing had happened. Out of prediction, the twin agreed.
“Neechan, who is your favorite actress?” Ryosuke who was laying on Kei’s bed suddenly asked. Bringing the weird question out of nowhere.
“No one.” Answered Kei flat. That’s right, she aren’t the type who crazy about entertainer.
“That’s good. I’m happy to hear that.” Ryosuke smiled brightly and back focus on magazine he was reading. Female magazine.
Daiki who was watching anime on Kei’s tv paused for a moment, turning to Kei who was doing the same. They glanced at each other, confused with the youngest statement.
“Why?” Kei took initiative to ask. She was curious after all. It’s not the usual topic for them.
“I’ve read all of mom magazines collection. I watched tv almost every day.” He put down the magazine he was holding and sat up at the edge of bed, facing Kei who was working on her study table. “Every girl in my class talks about their favorite artist at break time. They would say that the actress is the most beautiful girl on the earth,” He stared at Kei deeply, causing the latter worried about the continuation of his sentence. “But honestly, I never saw someone who is more beautiful than you, neechan. I love you.”
Kei blushed. What the hell you just said Ryosuke? “You’re good at saying sweet thing, Ryo-chan.” She turned to hide her redden cheeks. Daiki hold his laughed witnessing the scene.
“I’m good at proving it too.” Ryosuke get up from bed and approaching Kei, he leaned down and peck at Kei’s cheek. “I love you neechan. Since the day I born, my favorite actress is you.” He grinned while hugging his sister as Kei clear her throat.
Kei smiled. She turned back and gave a peck on Ryosuke’s cheek.
“Huh, Ryo-chan. You make me jealous.” Daiki pouted. Why he has to kiss neechan in front of me?
“Come here Dai-chan, I’ll give you one if you want.” Kei signaled the younger to come closer. Daiki accept the invitation gladly.
“I want two!” He protested when Kei released him after giving a peck on his right cheek.
“Greedy.” Kei slapped him playfully. But she did as he ask, giving another kiss on his left cheek.
“Me too. I also want more.” Ryosuke now clinging on her arm. Waiting for Kei to kiss him too. Kei has no choice but to give him what he wanted.
“Neechan, speaking of whom, where’s your prince? You haven’t meet him for a week. It’s really strange.” Daiki started another topic, distracting Kei and Ryosuke who was arguing about ‘give me more kiss’ and ‘you got two already!’
“He said he has some urgent thing to do. Maybe his father asked him to help with company matter.” Explained Kei. She knows that her brothers didn’t care about that, they just curious why he never appeared within a week, since they almost every day witnessing Kota sent her home.
“Hm… whatever. I hope he do it forever. I don’t like seeing him around you.” Daiki smirked and silently pray in his heart. Kami-sama, don’t let him come here ever again!
“I know you would say this.” Kei said emotionlessly and turned back to do her assignment.
***
“Ryo-chan, isn’t that Yabu-kun?” Daiki pointed to the tall young guy across them. They were on the way home from school and passed by at a convenient store. Ryosuke’s gaze followed the direction. “What is he doing here?”
“Who knows? Buying some snack maybe…” Answered Ryosuke flatly. He wasn’t in the mood to care about what the guy doing. As long as he doesn’t involved around Kei, it’s enough for him.
“He? Hikaru?” Daiki eyes widened as he noticed the skinny man who stand beside Kota. Ryosuke immediately sharpened his gaze and look at the said guys.
“Seriously, what are they doing? Yabu-kun said to neechan that he has an important work to do. So why is he here right now?” Daiki became furious. “Don’t tell me the important thing is traveling with Hikaru?” Daiki was pissed off with his own thought.
“Sshh… calm down, Dai-chan. We don’t know what actually happen. Maybe they just doing some work together.” Ryosuke tried to distract his twin. “For now, let’s just go home.” Ryosuke was trauma with past week incident. He don’t want to be scolded by Kei again.
“You right, Ryo-chan. We don’t know what happen, then why don’t we track them?” Daiki smirked evilly. I can’t forgive him. He lied to neechan. I’ll prove to her that you’re the worst man, Yabu Kota!
“Daichan, mom will be worry. Let’s just go home…” Ryosuke whined, clutching on Daiki’s sleeve. He just want to go home, playing with Kei. They already got their sister back. Who cares what that Yabu doing?
“Ah, okay. Let’s go home and changing shirt. Then permit to mom so we can go home late.” Daiki pulled Ryosuke hand and walked hurriedly. Ryosuke followed him while pouting. I won’t come with you, Daichan, I won’t go!
***
“Hayaku!” Daiki glared to Ryosuke who was lying on sofa. Daiki had prepared everything on his small backpack, while Ryosuke didn’t even change his uniform yet.
“I don’t want to go… It’s hot outside.” Ryosuke made an excuse. He can’t say his reason straightly, Daiki would mad at him.
“You can wear a hat or bring umbrella.” Daiki forced Ryosuke to stand up and pushed him to his room. “Change now!” He demanded.
“Don’t want…” Ryosuke retorted. He wasn’t in the mood to do anything. They were just came home and tired. All that he wanted to do is lazing around. But Daiki…
“If you won’t come with me, I’ll eat your last strawberry.” Daiki shouted his last effort, threatening Ryosuke with his favorite. He turned and walked towards the kitchen, wanting to take strawberry from refrigerator.
“No!!!” Ryosuke ran out of his room and chase Daiki. Kei who heard the commotion went out from her room.
“What’s the matter?” She asked to Ryosuke who was gripping hard on Daiki’s arm, while Daiki just turning his face from the youngest.
“Daichan want-“
“Ryo-chan doesn’t want to accompany me walking, neechan. Mou~” Daiki cut Ryosuke’s words. He changed his usual way of speaking, imitating the youngest spoilt dialect and set his expression as frowned as he could. Ryosuke glared at him.
“Ryosuke, don’t be like that. He is always with you. What’s so wrong with just coming with him? Aren’t you like to spend time together?” Kei took the bait. Daiki smirked.
“Mou~ neechan. You don’t-“
“Just come with him. Don’t be stubborn. He’s your twin.” Kei turned and entered back her room. Ryosuke sighed.
Neechan, you don’t know anything…
“Ikou!” Daiki cheerfully said, pulling the pouting Ryosuke with him. Didn’t even bother that he still wore school uniform.
***
“Did you save Yabu-kun’s number?” Daiki asked to Ryosuke who was eating ice cream. Daiki treat him because Ryosuke didn’t stop whining along the way. Saying he wanted to go back because he afraid Kei would scold them like the previous time.
Ryosuke nodded and passed his mobile to Daiki.
“Good boy…” Daiki patted his head and smiled. He checked on the phone for minutes until he finally sighed in relief, found what he had searched.
“Ryo-chan, you don’t know what I am thinking, do you?” He stared deeply at Ryosuke. The youngest replied with ‘don’t-talk-about-anything’ looks.
“I suspect both Yabu and Yaotome.” Daiki spoke out his mind, making Ryosuke stop licking his ice cream.
“Why?” The first normal word that come out from his mouth ever since they exit the house.
“You really inherit neechan’s slow mind!” Daiki burn up again. “You know, last week we spotted neechan went out with Hikaru, now Yabu and Hikaru. Who is next week? You and Hikaru?” Daiki eyes almost pull out from its socket when he said that. He was glaring widely to Ryosuke.
“It’s wrong, Daichan…” Ryosuke answered scarily. “That must be Daichan and Hikaru, because he only know you, not me…”
“Hah, now do you get the point?” Daiki pray in his heart that we won’t need to explain the detail. Ryosuke rolled his eyes, thinking. Daiki snatched ice cream from his hand and eat it before it melt. That thinking mode will be long. He tought.
“Yabu-kun going out with Hikaru… That’s mean they’re know each other?” Ryosuke was snap with his thinking result. Then it’s mean… Yabu-kun lied to us? Why he acted like he didn’t know Hikaru last week? “Daichan, we should investigate this!” Ryosuke became high spirit in sudden.
“We are! That’s why I drag you along.”
***
“See, they look so close to each other.” Daiki clenched his fist. Feeling so irritated with the view. They were at a game zone in mall. You don’t need to ask what they were doing. Of course, stalking Kota and Hikaru.
“Daichan, they’re so sweet… Like me and Daichan.” Yamada tugging on Daiki’s shirt, slowly hugging the older from behind. He was imitating what Hikaru did to Kota. Hikaru didn’t actually hugging Kota though, he was just gripping on his shirt. Instead of being irritated like Daiki, Ryosuke was mesmerized by the guys’s intimacy.
“Ryo-chan, it’s not the time for that…” Daiki patiently repeated his words for nth times. He realeased Ryosuke’s arm from his body and explaining to Ryosuke that their purpose is to stalk them, spying on them, not to admiring their act. They should suspect it instead!
“Wakatta… I just suddenly feel jealous because they can act that intimate in public. Mou~ they’re almost beat us in this matter.”
“Don’t you feel something suspicious with that?” Daiki asked straightly. Ryosuke isn’t a dense person. But sometimes his brain would give a wrong reaction towards information that he received.
“Yeah, they’re look like a twin. But no… they’re not alike to each other. Then… a couple.” Ryosuke tried to process Daiki’s word. “Eh??? Couple?!?!?!” Like before, he was shocking by his own conclusion.
“Yeah… what else can you think after seeing them like this?”
“I see… Yabu-kun was really shock when he knows Hikaru has a crush towards neechan. Rather than worrying about neechan, he was thinking how come it be Hikaru.”
“Once more, he never acted this lovey-dovey with neechan.” Ryosuke added, just realized the main case.
“So, what we should do now?” He asked his twin who usually has a brilliant idea.
