I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

The word "fate" has no origin.

This sentence could not be more suitable for Sakura Matou.

Looking back now, the girl still smiles knowingly and feels a little baffled at the same time.

That year, she was five years old, still a child who didn't understand anything. She was adopted into a new family by her father for an incomprehensible reason, and her young heart was full of uneasiness.

And in this new home, there is no warmth as before, and everyone is cold to each other. The so-called grandfather and father, after the adoption ceremony, stopped caring about themselves and allowed themselves to stay in this strange home, confused and helpless.

The one who walked into him at that time was the only exception in his family, Matou Shinji, a boy one year older than himself and who was about to become his brother.

He said to himself with a sunny smile that was completely different from this gloomy home:

"From today on, you are my sister and I am your brother."

"From now on, my brother will protect you."

Who would take seriously what a six-year-old said?

Five-year-old Sakura didn't have it, and even if she were now sixteen years old and traveled back in time, she wouldn't necessarily believe it.

After all, it was just the first time we met, and we had no interaction at all before. Based on the relationship between brother and sister in name only, why should I pay so much for you?

But soon, Sakura realized that she was wrong. That child, his brother, Shinji Matou really did it.

From the first night after arriving in the new home, from the hands of that monster grandpa.

That bright silver light cut through the overwhelming tide of insects, shattered the despair about to fall into darkness, and was forever imprinted in the girl's heart.

And this is just the beginning of everything.

For the next eleven years, he never broke his promise.

She thought the home was gloomy, so he cleaned it to remove the stale musty smell.

She felt that this home was cold, so he used his own efforts to shorten the distance between people and make the home truly warm.

She missed her sister and mother, so he cleverly created opportunities for them to meet.

Unknowingly, all the factors that made her uneasy were eliminated, and she was even happier than before.

After she became sensible, she once asked him: Why should he be so kind to himself?

The answers I got were the same: Because you are my sister, and my brother treats his sister as a matter of course.

It’s still that ridiculous, even a little perfunctory, reason that makes people unable to believe it.

However, what if you don’t believe it once, don’t believe it twice, and persist in it for one or two years? Do you still find it perfunctory and ridiculous?

To this day, Sakura still can't understand what her brother originally thought, but she no longer wants to understand, because things like fate are difficult to understand, let alone someone who holds her in the palm of his hand. What else does brother have to be dissatisfied with?

Well...if I have to say I'm dissatisfied, I still have some, that is, my brother is not only so kind to me, but also to other girls.

He seems to always meet those ill-fated girls, save one when he sees one, and take one home after saving one. But she couldn't say anything, because even she would feel heartbroken by those girls' experiences.

Although this is the case, but...

It would be nice if my brother only stayed by himself.

She had said this quietly countless times over the years.

At first, it was because of the child's desire for exclusivity, but when he grew older, he had a strange feeling for his brother, which was beyond that of brother and sister.

Girls tend to mature earlier than boys. Starting from the upper grades of elementary school, the whispers between girls change from new clothes and dolls to love between men and women.

Many bold girls have begun to fall in love, and it is not impossible for the older ones to take it a step further.

Every time classmates and friends around her talk about such topics, Sakura always agrees on the surface, but secretly disdains it in her heart.

What does your boyfriend mean? Can you compare with your brother?

Handsome? Is there a handsome brother?

Gentle? Is there a gentle and considerate brother?

Pamper you? That's because you have never seen how my brother dotes on me.

Are you complacent about giving you a gift? The gifts my brother gave me can pile up into a mountain.

The more they compare, the more Sakura realizes how good Shinji is.

He can do anything his boyfriend can do.

He can do things that his boyfriend can't do.

He can give whatever his boyfriend can give.

He can also give what his boyfriend can't give.

Therefore, the concept of boyfriend \u003cbrother is deeply ingrained in Sakura's cognition.

Either don't marry, or marry your brother, so that you can stay with your brother forever. There is no blood relationship anyway, and there are no ethical issues.

However, achieving this wish is by no means an easy task.

The elders can see her little thoughts to some extent and will not stop her, but it is hard to say for the competitors who are in the same position as her.

Asagami Fujino, Ujo Kirie, later Arquette, and Lorelaiya who couldn't tell and always felt a little weird, these were all his competitors.

Each of them is outstanding, and each of them has a deep bond with their brother.

Can he really win the competition with them?

Even if they really win and successfully marry their brother, can they guarantee that they will not interact with him and nothing will happen?

No, not to mention those who are not sure, just the two sisters who have been with him for a long time, it is impossible.

Because like themselves, their feelings for their brother are mixed with family affection, friendship, and love. Such deep emotions have almost become a kind of belief, deep-rooted and unshakable.

She once heard Fujino secretly say:

"It doesn't really matter whether I can become his wife, as long as I can stay with him, well, if I go a little further, I hope I can have two children with him, a boy and a girl. The boy will be like him, and the girl will be prettier than me. .”

So humbling. Sakura thought so, but it was a reality that she had to admit.

Fujino, who has the most tragic past, is actually the one who sees things most clearly among them.

This man is emotionally greedy but timid. He doesn't want to give up any of them, but he can't say it outright. He can only delay and leave the choice to the girls.

This man can give you everything except the love you yearn for.

No, maybe he can also give that love, but he will also share this love with others.

If you want to get stuck deeper and deeper, get out in time.

If you don't want to leave, then accept the reality.

Pull away? Sakura couldn't do it because she was the first person to fall in love with him.

Accept the truth? She was also a little reluctant.

She hasn't decided yet what to do.

But there was one thing she had already decided.

When she figures it out and is ready, she will muster up the courage to walk to him, hold his arm and say to him: "Brother, I love you."

Until then, she will continue to play the role of younger sister.

Whether she is a sister, a lover, a wife, or a lover, she is the one who loves her brother the most.

Who wants to hurt my brother?

Okay, step over her body first!

PS: I always say that there is no role for Sakura, but this time I finally have it. I’ll give you a wave of candy first, and follow the advice of another author, which is to open chapters, add extras, and open an IF world line. If it doesn’t work, I’ll do twenty chapters every day. Add sugar until it becomes greasy.

PS2: Hey, yesterday the author group was discussing how to retaliate against society by giving out dog food, so the treacherous young man foolishly uploaded the scheduled chapters. He regretted it so much that he decided to make up for it. Starting from today, I will update a dog food chapter from time to time, above.
