Falling in Love with a Sick Girlfriend Twenty Years Younger Than Me

"I didn't come back until this time after working overtime. Is this the tone? I really don't know how to understand the feelings of my sister who has been waiting for you alone, idiot brother."

"Ahaha, that's not it."

I quickly ran to the sofa and squatted down, flattering Meiling: "I'm not blaming you, I'm dissatisfied with the guy who left you alone at home and went to the hotel by himself. Now, don't be angry, okay?"

"Hmph, I'm not angry..."

Meiling snorted disdainfully, then threw the handle and stretched out her hands to me.

"Hold me to the bathroom, I'm going to relieve myself, and then go to bed."

"Okay, my lord sister!"

Picking up Meiling swiftly, she let out a coquettish complaint.After waiting for her to finish her toilet at the door of the toilet, I sent her back to the bedroom.

"Ah, yes, brother."

Just after turning off the light in the guest room, Meiling who was already lying in bed suddenly said to me.

"Dr. Ji and I went out for a trip today. When we came back, we received a courier from you in the management room. It has been placed in your room for you. Go and see for yourself."

"Huh? Express delivery?"

Meiling waved to me, indicating that I should go and see for myself.I didn't want to disturb her rest, so I decisively retreated from the guest room.

I didn't buy anything online, where did I get the express delivery?

Turn off the light in the living room, go back to the bedroom, and turn on the light.

A small square cardboard box about [-] centimeters was lying quietly on my desk.

I walked over curiously to have a look, picked it up and tried the weight.The result, however, was surprisingly light.

What... who played a prank?Send me an empty case?

I opened the drawer casually and took a look. I took out a utility knife and aimed it at the tape on the box, and gently cut it open.

Chill-

The box was opened.

Lifting the lid, I finally saw what was inside.I finally understand why it is so light.

——In it, there is only a transparent glass figure that is less than the size of an egg and is as clear as crystal.

The rest of the things that occupy most of the capacity of the entire box are just foam inside to prevent the portrait from being broken.

The weight of this box is naturally not very heavy.

As for why I was sure at a glance that the portrait was not crystal, but glass.That's because I know whose portrait it is.

"Kaori..."

I silently read out the name of that glass figure.

The body of that portrait is none other than Kaori, my ex-girlfriend who broke up with me at the end of last year.

Why send this thing back, that guy...

Didn't you agree to give it to her?But now I sent this back, still by express delivery... Does this mean that we can't even be friends in the future?

I was in a pretty good mood, but fell silent in an instant.

Ahh, really... so annoying.

Gently put the glass figure on the table, I walked to the bed and lay down heavily on it.

Taking out my phone, I opened the address book, intending to send an email to Kaori, asking her why she returned that to me.

But while opening the address book, I suddenly stopped the movement of my hands.

——What right do I have to ask her this?

Out of nowhere, I had this thought, and stared blankly at the phone screen for a long time.

Finally, I gave up on the idea of ​​emailing her and threw the phone aside.

Her meaning is already very clear, and the result is not far from what I expected... If I continue to pester her, I don't know what to say.

Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of a girl who still needs me to contact.Quickly took the phone over again and clicked on the email editing page.

Since we parted ways last time, Asuna's... I haven't contacted her yet.

Although I can't be his lover, but if it's just a friend, I can still do it.

But don't let her think that I completely hate her just because of her past.

[Asuna, I'm sorry about what happened last time.

It may be that Meiling doesn't know you very well, and she can't accept your past all of a sudden. Her attitude towards you may be a little bit bad, so please don't worry about it.

Personally...although I can't be your lover, but if it's a friend, I welcome it.

So, if you don't mind, we can still be friends in the future. 】

After editing, I sent this e-mail that was nothing even if my sister found out. I finally exhausted all my strength this time and sighed deeply.

"what......"
