After the Evacuation: Sister’s Jealousy

Chapter 5 • 1,283 words • 11 min read

Phew, the evacuation’s over. Time to go home and eat.

I put my burning phone into my pocket and walked back.

My hundred million dollars! What a loss! Even after returning home, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I felt like my heart and liver were being torn apart; the pain was killing me. Even the hand that opened the door was so weak. Damn it, you have to be honest with yourself.

“Big brother~ you’re home. And what’s this about a hundred million dollars?”

My little sister came out of the kitchen as usual to greet me. On her face was the quintessential newlywed smile, and in her hand was a gleaming kitchen knife. She stood in the hallway, looking at me.

“Well… just thinking about it makes me want to cry. Where are Mom and Dad?” I dragged my heavy body, haggard, into the kitchen.

“They went out to play, so they’re not eating at home.”

“At their age, still so fond of playing around.”

With that, I collapsed onto a kitchen chair. Then my sister set out the dishes, sat down beside me, and leaned in with a curious face.

“So, explain the details. I’m all ears~”

“It’s like this…”

And so I explained everything that happened today, my expression animated, spittle flying. But I didn’t exaggerate—it was all true.

Hearing my impassioned account, my sister’s expression gradually darkened.

“In other words, my brother returned the amount that would allow him to be with his little sister every night, day and night, having s*x forever and ever.” My sister gritted her teeth, terrifyingly, as she looked at me.

“Wait, what the hell is ‘every night, day and night, having s*x forever and ever’?!”

“That’s not important. You saved that person, right?”

“Yeah, I saved her.”

“And you flirted with her! Fine, losing a hundred million is one thing. But what makes me most angry is—you flirted with that woman!!!” My sister’s face darkened as she stared at me, leaving me utterly baffled. Where did I flirt?!

“Wait, that’s taking things out of context! Where did I flirt?” I was very confused, scratching the back of my head as I looked at her.

“The words you said to her when you stretched out your hand!!! That’s a plus-point phrase for women!!! Though it’s a minus-point phrase for your little sister. Hmph~ Big brother has already lost one point in little sister’s heart!” My sister put her hands on her hips, looking displeased.

Huh????? I don’t get it. Even though I feel that what I said to her was indeed quite pleasant to hear.

“By the way, in your heart, how many points does big brother still have left?” I was a bit curious about my score in her heart, so I asked.

“Several hundred trillion mega-points.”

“That’s a lot… So how can I add points?”

“Seeing big brother every day adds ten thousand points; big brother calling me ‘little sister’ adds one hundred thousand points; entering big brother’s room adds one million points…” She rattled off a list of point-adding options without any intention of stopping.

“Stop, stop, stop. Don’t worry about adding or deducting points. Anyway, my connection with her ends here. We probably won’t have any further entanglement.” I waved my hand at her.

“Ha, big brother, you don’t understand this. I bet she’ll transfer schools tomorrow, come to our school, and then be in the same class. That’s how it works! The tricks of the tropes!” My sister looked at me as if disappointed in my lack of understanding, very angry.

“Although that’s a classic anime trope, it can’t be that coincidental.”

“I don’t care! Anyway, no matter what, you can’t flirt with anyone tomorrow!”

“Ow, ow, ow, I get it, let go of my collar.”

My sister suddenly lunged, grabbed my collar, and shook me vigorously, making it hard to breathe.

“Hmph~ Now let’s eat. Today’s dishes are all your favorites~”

“Okay, let’s dig in.”

I picked up my chopsticks and grabbed a piece of pork belly, putting it into my mouth. I had to admit, my little sister was really skilled. The food was fragrant and delicious, melting in the mouth without sticking to the teeth, making me wolf it down.

“Since Mom and Dad aren’t here, I’m in luck. I can have two servings of such delightful food. Another bowl, please. Truly, I’m proud to have you as my sister.”

“Sure~ Thanks for the praise, big brother. But before you fill your bowl, wipe your mouth—you look like a hamster.” My sister was very cheerful, humming a tune, and filled my rice.

“Hey, aren’t you going to wipe it for me?” I smiled lightly and joked with her.

“Eh?” My sister suddenly turned her head, looking at me shyly.

“What’s wrong?” I was a bit surprised at her reaction and asked in confusion.

“Nothing. It’s just that big brother suddenly flirting gave me a start.”

“Does that count as flirting?”

‘Of course it does! Idiot! Don’t know how to increase points!’

“By the way, what was the thing that added the most points so far?”

I took the bowl of rice and asked curiously.

“It was in elementary school.”

“Oh, that incident. You know who the ringleader was, right?”

“Yeah. Mainly because of what my brother said that time.”

Suddenly, my sister’s face flushed bright red. She didn’t dare look up at me. What did I say? I really forgot.

“Um, what exactly did I say…”

“B-Big brother said…”

My sister twisted the hem of her skirt, her face shyly turned away, and she hesitated to speak.

“Don’t be scared. Spit it out. It’s not like it was something perverted.”

“It was something perverted!!! Idiot!!!”

My sister suddenly shouted, startling me. I hadn’t seen her so shy in a long time. I was at a loss.

“Then, what did I say…” Really, my curiosity was piqued, so I pressed on.

“Y-You said, ‘Ahem. She is my twin sister! Whoever makes her suffer, I’ll send them to meet God! Forgiving sins is God’s business; my job is to not let anyone involved off the hook, then send them to meet God! You dare make my little sister cry? Tired of living, aren’t you?!'”

“…” That really was some thuggish talk.

“That’s not all. After you said that, you smashed the desk in front of the ringleader’s face with your fist and raised your fist to punch him.”

“…” And very streetwise, me back then.

“Then he peed his pants on the spot. In the end, you only let them go after everyone involved knelt down and apologized to me. I still remember that day after school vividly! The moment the teacher left, you rushed over to the ringleader and forced him to confess!”

“R-Really? I truly forgot. I guess mind-reading was somewhat useful.”

“Huh? Are you kidding me? You forgot that in elementary school, no one dared to be around you?!!!”

“I forgot. It’s no big deal.”

“Sigh, let’s eat. Let’s eat.”

“Ah, yeah.”

After an awkward meal, I was about to go upstairs when my sister grabbed the hem of my shirt. I turned around and looked at her.

“Remember, tomorrow you can’t flirt with any women, got it~” My sister smiled at me playfully. This time she didn’t hold a kitchen knife but scissors, which went *snip snip*.

“O-Okay…”

“Big brother belongs to little sister, right?”

“Y-Yes!”

“Then~ I’m relieved. Good night, big brother~”

“Good night…”

Back in my room, I collapsed directly onto the bed. I let out a sigh. Phew, today was exhausting. I hope tomorrow I get a decent ability.

Time to sleep. But man, my head hurts!!!
