When Kazuya changed his clothes and went downstairs again, various steaming seafood dishes were already set on the dining table, and Haruko's mother was humming and bringing the last plate to the table.

"Kazuya." Seeing her youngest son enter the door, she waved her hand with a smile, "It's just in time, I was going to ask you and Tatsuya to have dinner."

"Ah, brother, leave it to me." Hearing this, He, who hadn't settled down in the chair, immediately stood up and walked towards the entrance, "He's in the study room with Xiao Nan, right? "

Haruko nodded, "By the way, why don't you invite Xiaonan to come too? It's rare to have so many fresh and good materials."

"I see." Kazuya said as he was about to open the door, but Tatsuya just opened the door and walked in...

"Huh?" Seeing Kazuya's movements, Tatsuya blinked, "Going out at this time? Are you going to have dinner soon?" He asked strangely.

Kazuya took a step back, "I'm not going out, I'm going to call my brother home for dinner."

Tatsuya smiled when he heard the words, "Who do you think I am? Would I, Uesugi Tatsuya, make the mistake of missing the dinner time? I came back on time!"

"Hey. It's amazing." Kazuya "praise" without any sincerity.

Tatsuya looked at him silently for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand, messing up his brother's neat black hair!

"You've been arrogant since morning, Kazuya-san."

Seeing Kazuya rearranging his hair helplessly and embarrassingly, Tatsuya smirked.

"Hey, this is to warn you, I have to respect my elder brother more, otherwise I will give you the punishment of love."

With that said, he left his twin brother who was arranging his hair, and walked into the restaurant swaggeringly.

Kazuya followed behind his brother and shook his head helplessly.But as he bowed his head, the corner of his mouth unconsciously overflowed with a slightly curved arc——

Ahhh.

Great.

I can still feel the temperature that belongs to my brother like now.

***

Dinner at the Uesugi's family went very happily this evening.

The delicious seafood feast made the family of four extremely satisfied and happy, especially the tuna rice bowl cooked exclusively by Haruko's mother. Both brothers Kazuya and Tatsuya refilled their bowls more than once. At the end of the meal, brothers Both of them had small round bellies, and they were rushed to the living room by their mother with a proud and joyful smile to digest their food.

"Speaking of which, your behavior today is extremely strange!"

Lying flat on the tatami with his limbs stretched out, Tatsuya lazily half-closed his eyes, stretched out his feet to touch Kazuya who was lying next to him in the same posture, and said something casually.

Kazuya's reaction was half a beat slow, "Ah... what does brother mean?"

"Stop pretending to be confused with me." Tatsuya turned his head to look at him, "Whether it's not going for a run in the morning, the inexplicable bet afterwards, or the performance at the dinner table just now (and usually even if you meet your favorite dish Shi also only eats [-]% full, saying that a scientific and reasonable diet can maintain the state or something), all of them are strange, okay. What happened? You are very wrong, Kazuya-kun."

Kazuya's movements froze for a moment.

He originally thought that Tatsuya was the same as Xiaonan. Even if he noticed his abnormality, he would probably only think it was no big deal and wouldn't go into it, but he didn't expect that he seemed to be far more careful and sensitive than he thought.

"Hey, brother." He was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth with determination.

"Huh?" Responding to him was Tatsuya's usual laziness with a hint of sleepiness.

"What would you do if one day I was gone?"

"What's missing... Sorry, even in high school we brothers will still go to the same school, for the time being, you still can't get rid of me, the super-beautiful elder brother who makes you feel ashamed."

"... Seriously. I mean it."

While talking, Kazuya turned his head and met Tatsuya's eyes.

The two brothers were lying side by side in the small living room, tilting their heads slightly, they almost heard each other's breath.

In Kazuya's memory, it seems that he has never looked at Tatsuya so closely, for a long time and intently.

Tatsu didn't make a sound either.

Kazuya didn't ask further.

The two brothers looked sideways, almost head to head, until...

"Slap!" Tatsuya suddenly raised his hand, and slapped Kazuya's face with a slap, covering Kazuya's eyes that were too deep - so deep that his heart trembled violently - and at the same time blocked his eyes. He met the other party's faint eyes that seemed to look into the depths of his heart.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tatsuya turned his head and looked at the ceiling with empty eyes, "Even if one day we go to different universities, choose different future paths, get married and leave our parents, maybe even because of work or family problems Even if we live in different cities, aren't we still brothers?"

"Even if we're not by each other's side, we're still together."

"Say something stupid about you not being here."

"We... haven't been together all this time."

And also silent.

He wanted to say what if one day I suddenly died?

Brother, what kind of mood do you feel?

But he suddenly thought about what Da would look like after he died, what kind of reaction he would have, what kind of pain and sorrow he would bear because of his death, and the time when he was by his side after his death in his previous life Li, isn't it... have witnessed all of them with your own eyes?

Now to ask this question again...

He is also really stupid.

only.

Sure enough, I still want an answer.

I still want to ask something from Tatsuya himself.

——He has never been willing to face himself honestly, to speak out what is in his heart, idiot brother...

And also slowly close your eyes.

"Ah."

He heard himself finally respond to Tatsuya, with an unprecedentedly calm and gentle voice.

"You're right, brother."

"We've...been together all this time."

——Never, never separated.

Tatsuya snorted a chuckle.

"Of course, idiot brother."

Neither of the brothers spoke again.

When Haruko and Shingo both walked into the living room, they were surprised to find that the two sons were lying on the tatami mat and fell asleep, head to head.

The two almost identical faces, with the same faint smiles, are close to each other, making people feel a little warm after seeing them for some reason...

"Oh, it's true, I just sleep here, and I'm not afraid of catching a cold."

Saying this, Haruko nimbly pulled out a quilt from the side wall cabinet, and carefully tucked it in for the brothers...

"Good night, Kazuya. Good night, Tatsuya."

—Good night, my darlings.

The couple turned off the lights in the living room with smiles on their faces, and left quietly.
