Anime: Desolate Darkness

"Brother Kimura! I thought you ran away secretly!"

When Izumi Sagiri pushed the door open and saw Kimura Takumi, she pounced on him directly.

"Who do you think Sagiri is me?" Kimura Takumi caught it steadily, chuckled, and then rubbed the back of her head.

Izumi Sagiri felt the touch of the big hand, smiled happily, and rubbed her little head against the other's chest again.

The two of them were happy, but Izumi Riko was not happy watching from behind, as if she was jealous...

No, no!

She shook her head, denying her feelings, thinking: That's my daughter, Qiaojun's daughter. It's normal for a father and daughter to hug each other! How can I be jealous? !

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of love as she looked at Izumi Sagiri.

Sure enough, once people put themselves in other people's shoes and think about things in a positive way, their mood will change drastically and their ability to accept will improve a lot.

A quarter of an hour later,

After being with Kimura Takumi for so long, Izumi Sagiri finally remembered that there was a third person in the room besides them.

"Ka-chan, are you sick? Why do you need Kimura-nii to send breakfast to your room?"

What does that blaming tone mean? !

Izumi Riko internally broke down and screamed.

But she didn't know how to explain it for a moment. She couldn't tell the other party that she had just lost her virginity and it was inconvenient for her to move around, right?

Fortunately, seeing that she did not answer immediately, knowing that she could not think of an excuse, Kimura Takumi immediately helped her out.

"Ms. Riko is not sick. She was just too tired from working all night to finish her manuscript. She didn't have the energy to prepare breakfast for Sagiri, so she asked me to come and help."

Taking advantage of the opportunity, he explained all the questions that Sagiri had just asked him in the kitchen.

"Eh~? Is that so? Kaka-chan could have asked me to come over and help, so that you wouldn't have to work so hard." Upon hearing that it was because of the rush to finish the manuscript, Izumi Sagiri said dissatisfiedly.

It was bad enough that her abilities were immature before, but now her level is on par with his, enough to take over as the second generation "Eromanga Sensei".

Why doesn't the other party know how to rely on her a little?

Izumi Sagiri doesn't want to be a useless child.

"Well... after all, this is Ka-chan's own job. How can I trouble my daughter?" Not knowing what she was thinking, Izumi Riko scratched her cheek and said awkwardly.

"Ka-chan, you big idiot!" After saying that, Izumi Sagiri buried her face in Kimura Takumi's chest.

It looks like he'll be hard to appease.

At this time, Kimura Takumi was also speechless by Izumi Riko's self-defeating answer.

Why can’t you change the way you say it, like “I don’t want to disturb your rest” to ease the atmosphere?

Or you can say “I know I was wrong this time, and I will definitely not forget you next time” to show weakness.

Izumi Riko anxiously patted Kimura Takumi's back, signaling him to think of a solution quickly.

Kimura Takumi nodded and walked out holding the sulking Izumi Sagiri.

Izumi Riko rolled over helplessly on the bed, grabbing her hair with both hands, muttering, "Ahhh~ I screwed up again..."

Walking towards the living room, Kimura Takumi changed his route when he noticed that the breakfast on the table was still untouched.

"Sagiri, why didn't you have breakfast?" he asked when he came to the dining table.

"Because I was thinking about eating with brother Kimura..." Izumi Sagiri pouted and muttered softly.

But those thoughts before, now because of the quarrel with her mother, she has lost her appetite.

"Then let's have breakfast first? Don't be angry with Miss Shengzi, she is doing this for your own good." He put the girl in his arms on the chair and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"I'm not mad at Ka-chan... I just don't like her treating me like a child all the time, even though I'm 13 years old and can help a lot..."

Izumi Sagiri kicked off her slippers unhappily, and lifted her two delicate and small feet onto the chair. She hugged them tightly with her arms, buried her aggrieved little face in them, and curled up into a ball.

This is obviously anger, right?

Besides, isn't 13 years old a child? Kimura Takumi pulled a chair over and sat down.

A long time passed.

"Brother Kimura, why don't you comfort me?"

Looking up, she saw Kimura Takumi calmly eating breakfast beside her, and Izumi Sagiri questioned with shame and anger.

If it were in the past, when she was so sad, the other party would have tried every possible way to please her.

Unexpectedly, Kimura Takumi just swallowed the food in his mouth slowly after hearing this, and then asked as a matter of course: "Sagiri is not a child anymore, right? You have to learn to endure loss on your own, right?"

!!!

Hearing this, Izumi Sagiri became even more excited than when she was treating Izumi Riko just now.

"No! This has nothing to do with growing up or not, right? I have always been my brother's sister, and that hasn't changed, so isn't it normal for a brother to comfort his sister?"

She stood on the ground with her bare feet, holding onto Kimura Takumi's arm tightly with both hands, her eyes were red and a thin layer of mist appeared in them.

Seeing this, Kimura Takumi felt a pain in his heart and subconsciously raised his other hand that was not caught, but was immediately pressed down again.

It's not time yet...

"Ms. Riko's thoughts should be the same as yours now. No matter how old you are or how capable you are, she still treats you the same as before."

"I don't want you to get into trouble, and I don't want you to worry about her problems... Because, you are her child, and that has never changed, right?"

“How many mothers in the world want to throw their responsibilities onto their children?”

Izumi Sagiri was stunned for a moment, turned her face away, thought about it, and nodded reluctantly.

"Um..."

"Sagiri, where are you going?"

Seeing her turn and leave, Kimura Takumi asked in confusion.

"I want to go and apologize to Ka-chan..."

"Why don't you finish your breakfast first? Ms. Riko might be having breakfast right now, wouldn't you be disturbing her if you go over there?"

If you delay eating it any longer, this breakfast will become lunch.

Izumi Sagiri was silent for a while, felt the same way, and immediately turned back.

"Then I want Brother Kimura to feed me!"

The feeling of loss disappeared in an instant, and she regained her previous liveliness. Without asking, she simply sat on Kimura Takumi's legs.

Even Kimura Takumi was stunned by the speed of his expression change.

……

In Riko Izumi's room.

"Ka-chan!"

"Eh?"

When her daughter suddenly broke in and hugged her, Izumi Riko couldn't help but lose consciousness for a moment.

How is this going?

Sagiri was angry with me just now, why is she coming here to act like a spoiled child now?

"Sagiri?" She called her daughter's name softly, but she just hugged her tighter and didn't say anything.

???

This made Izumi Riko even more confused.

She shifted her gaze to Kimura Takumi who was standing at the door.

Receiving her inquiring gaze, Kimura Takumi shrugged, smiled, and turned away.

He knew that the silence was only temporary. Next, the mother and daughter would probably have a lot to say, so there was no point in him staying.
