Tsuki Tsuki - Volume 6 - Chapter Epilogue

Epilogue

A certain day in the later half of summer vacation. When I casually peeked into the living room after coming home from the bookstore, Miichan had come over to play.
I checked upon the situation curiously, whereupon it seemed that Miichan was in a girl’s talk with the girl team (my mother excluded) of our house. I thought about joining in, but a new book that I had been looking forward to had been released today. I would like to read it before my mother snatches it away.
For a moment, I considered just passing by. But that would certainly a bit rude. Thinking that I should at least greet them, I showed up in the living room.
“Welcome, Miichan. Take your time here. Okay, I’m gone again.”
“…You are rather cold today, Shinobu-oniisan. You are rather formal and before I even said anything, you try to return to your own room. Why?”
When Miichan said so painfully, Nazuna frowned a bit.
“Brother, I feel sorry for Miichan. She came here today to consult you.”
“Consult me? I don’t have any money. Though I have unlimited love.”
“Hey, Shinobu, Miichan is seriously troubled here, so stop your jokes and listen to her properly.”
When Machina, who sat on the sofa, reprimanded me, Nazuna nodded in agreement and gently pushed Miichan’s back, so that she stood in front of me.
“C’mon, Miichan.”

“Y- Yes.”
Urged by Nazuna, Miichan reddened her cheeks for some reason and opened her mouth.
“Ehm, you currently don’t have a girlfriend, right Shinobu-oniisan?”
Before I could answer that question,
“Shinobu doesn’t have a girlfriend. Though he’s a former slave, a tsundere, a lover, a maid and a fiancée.”
Elni answered first and the former slave Luna raised her hand happily.
Instantly, Miichan was surprised with “I- Is that so!?”, but
“Heroes are amorous.”
said that and took a deep breath. Then she recollected herself and opened her mouth once more.
“Uhm, I have a favour to ask of the girlfriend-less Shinobu-oniisan…”
“Mh? What kind of favour do you have for the girlfriend-less, lonely Shinobu-oniisan?”
When I asked by cracking a joke, Miichan turned even redder and answered.
“Just for a little while will be fine— Please become my boyfriend!”
