The Sweet Taste of Obsession

Like a withered log, I pulled out the last candy and placed it into my mouth.

Sigh. The gentle sweetness of the candy made a stark contrast with my current state—one sweet, one bitter.

“Big brother~ I didn’t bring the stun gun today.”

A breeze swept by, causing my sister’s skirt to flutter. Her lithe figure basked in the sunlight, her pale hands clasped behind her back. She stood with her back to me, her little head seemingly gazing into the distance.

“Don’t tell me you brought a restricted knife!?”

“Nope~ By the way, big brother, what are you doing with your mouth?”

“Eating candy.”

“Heh~”

My sister turned her head forty-five degrees, her lips curling upward slightly. Her hands hung naturally by her thighs, and her eyes, half-lidded, stared straight at me.

I felt that if she were wearing a hooded coat and the wind were a bit stronger, she’d be the epitome of a cool, stylish girl.

“Big brother, stand there and don’t move.”

“Okay!”

Hearing the command, I straightened up and stood motionless like a pole. My sister chuckled softly, turned around, and walked toward me.

Then she stopped in front of me, reached out her hands, placed them on my chest, and murmured softly.

“Kneel down, big brother~”

“Huh?”

Puzzled by her behavior, I hesitated. But to avoid a blade-wielding bad end, I obeyed and slowly knelt down.

“Hehe~”

Another ambiguous whisper escaped her lips. She also crouched down. Her sky-blue eyes, as calm as a placid lake without a single ripple, looked at me. She then brushed my cheek with her right hand.

What was happening? Seeing my sister act so strangely made me uneasy. Yet, at the same time, I found myself anticipating her next move.

I didn’t know what she intended to do, but the throbbing in my heart was impossible to ignore.

“Open your mouth, big brother~”

She placed her hand on my right cheek and gave me a smile—sweet, intoxicating, irresistible. A perfect smile. Slowly, I opened my mouth. My sister’s smile widened.

Then, with lightning speed, she thrust three fingers into my mouth and swiftly retrieved the candy. Sticky strands of saliva trailed behind. She parted her little lips, placed the candy—snatched from my mouth—inside, and extended her tongue to lick the three fingers that had touched it.

Seeing my sister behave like this, all I could say was: ‘Doc, doc, doctor! My sister is broken! Though, somehow, I found it incredibly cute… unbelievably cute. I couldn’t help it.’

(=ω=;)

“Mmm~ So sweet.”

She pressed both hands against her cheeks, looking as if she were overflowing with happiness. She closed her eyes in satisfaction, and the sound of the candy clicking against her teeth came from her mouth.

Sister, sister dear, you’re happy now. What about me? That was my lunch! My last remaining candy!

“Sis, sister, what’s gotten into you all of a sudden?”

I reached out and felt her forehead.

No fever. She didn’t seem sick. Could it be! The yandere has been cured!

“I’m not sick. Ah, no, actually, I am sick.”

“What do you mean?”

“Hehe, it’s a disease called happiness. A disease called love. I’m so happy right now, big brother. Your saliva tastes sweet~”

She placed her right hand over her left, slowly moving it toward her heart. Lowering her head, she continued, “My heart is pounding nonstop right now. Do you know why?”

“Wh-why?”

“Hehe, for two reasons. One is the candy. And two… Hoo, big brother, you guess.” She raised her head and stared at me silently.

Hmm… Let me guess.

I closed my eyes and thought for a moment, then opened them and looked at her, saying, “Because you’re with big brother?”

“Big brother is amazing~” She didn’t deny it.

“It was pretty easy to guess.” After all, that was the most likely possibility.

“Then does big brother know why sister isn’t angry today?~”

“Because of what happened this morning?”

“Mmhm~ That’s right.”

Wait! Seeing her like this, I suddenly had an idea: what if I just accepted my sister, then openly chased after other cute girls? Then she’d forgive me, right?

“Well, of course, if big brother’s gaze lingers on other women for too long, even if you give me a kiss, I’ll still stab out one of your eyeballs~”

“What if I give two kisses!”

“Boo-boo, tw-two kisses? Then I’ll definitely kill you, big brother~” She suddenly looked up, her eyes sharp as blades, staring at me without any attempt to hide it.

“Wh-why!?” ‘That disparity is too big!’

“Because I’m dependent on you~ If even then your heart doesn’t belong to me…” She paused and continued, “Then it’s useless for me to destroy, snatch, or scheme… because your heart is no longer here. I’d just be someone who was toyed with and abandoned.”

She ran her hand through her hair and gritted her teeth. “If big brother uses such despicable tricks to deceive my heart temporarily, ha, haha, then I’ll kill you. Drain your blood and gulp it down—the feeling of my throat mingling with your blood should be great. Then I’ll cut off your head and put it on the bedside table. That way, every morning, I’ll see your pale, snow-white face. Hehe.”

“Though that would be nice too, I really don’t want a puppet big brother. You’re best like this, full of life and vigor.”

She knelt down, wrapped her arms around my neck, and gently traced my ear with her tongue. Warm breath swirled around my ear as her soft whisper sounded again.

“I’ve worked so hard to get you, big brother. Don’t I deserve praise? Heehee. The one who made me this way is you, big brother.” She hugged me tighter, making it hard to breathe.

“Oops, I talked too much. Sorry. You lost one candy to me. Today, Xiaohai went to practice piano, so she’s not here for lunch break. Let’s eat together, big brother~”

She gently released my neck, walked to the railing, and sat down. Beaming, she said to me, “I made bento today, a love bento. Come, lie on my lap, and I’ll feed you~”

“Ah, no need for your lap. I’m coming!”

Sitting dazed on the floor, starving to the point where my stomach was sticking to my back, I heard those words. My hope reignited. Finally, I wouldn’t go hungry! I was truly scared just now, but I can get used to it, right? Right? Food! That’s the priority now! Oh, I’m coming, sister dear~
