Having placed his belongings in Ryota's room, Haruto waited in the living room with Ryota until dinner was ready. Recently, Ryota had become engrossed in playing samurai duels. Holding a toy sword, Haruto faced off against Ryota, who stood ready with a determined expression. "Now then, Ryota-kun, let us duel with honor!" Haruto said, striking a dramatic pose. "Hehehe, big brother, did you know? I'm a master of the Niten Ichi-ryu" Ryota declared confidently, brandishing two toy swords in both…-

When Haruto returned home, he began the final check of his belongings for moving into the Tōjō household. “Change of clothes, charger, study materials, and… alright, that should do it.” After confirming that he hadn’t forgotten anything in his Boston bag, Haruto slung his backpack over his shoulders, locked up his house, and headed for the Tōjō residence. By the way, his grandmother had gone to the Tōjōs’ around midday and was already working as their housekeeper. Grateful to…-

The buzz about the school idol's fireworks date showed no signs of dying down, even the day after. During breaks, Ayaka was quickly surrounded by a crowd of female students. Haruto, who had yet again been unable to interact with her at school, faced the end of the day feeling dejected about his helplessness. However, recalling that it was Tuesday brought a slight smile to his face. From today, his grandmother would start working as a live-in housekeeper at the Tōjō residence. Haruto himself…-

Monday, the day after Haruto and Ayaka watched the fireworks together. As Haruto entered the classroom with Tomoya as usual and took his seat, he noticed that the atmosphere in the room was more lively than normal. “Seems like there's quite a buzz around Tōjō-san,” Tomoya remarked, glancing toward the commotion. “Do you think they found out about me and Ayaka dating?” Haruto asked, lowering his voice so no one else could hear. “Nah, if that were the case, you’d have been bombarded…-

The quiet of the night enveloped the residential neighborhood. Under the gentle glow of the moonlight, Haruto and Ayaka walked slowly, hand in hand. “The fireworks were so beautiful tonight,” Ayaka said with a smile. “Yeah, they were amazing. Were they always this spectacular? I kind of regret not paying attention to them before,” Haruto replied. Ayaka’s face lit up as she talked about the fireworks they had seen earlier. Haruto, too, seemed impressed, until Ayaka turned to him with a…-

My mom and dad get along really well. Probably better than most couples out there. Having parents who are on good terms is amazing from a child’s perspective, but sometimes their lovey-dovey moments make me want to ask for a little restraint. Still, watching the two of them ever since I was little made me dream of finding someone special to fall in love with someday. Then we’d date, fall deeper in love, get married, and become a couple as close as my parents. Our family would grow, our home…-

After looking around at the lively stalls on either side, Haruto lowered his gaze to his left arm. Since meeting up with Ayaka, his arm had been tightly embraced by her the entire time. "Ayaka? How about walking a little farther apart?" "No way, it's so crowded. We'll get separated!" Ayaka immediately rejected Haruto's suggestion, tightening her grip on his arm as she murmured. "Besides... other girls might start talking to you like earlier..." "That was only because Tomoya was with…-

The sky began to turn crimson, transitioning into twilight. Despite the approaching nightfall, the path Haruto walked was brightly lit by the countless lights of food stalls lining both sides of the road. Energetic voices calling out to customers echoed from every direction, creating a lively atmosphere. The street was packed with people, moving through the narrow spaces between the stalls. This was the largest fireworks festival in Haruto’s hometown. Although it had been canceled once due to…-

Haruto always wakes up early to study in the quiet hours of the morning. This habit is so deeply ingrained that even the morning after spending the night at the Tōjō household, he naturally woke up as the sky began to brighten. Sitting up slowly, Haruto glanced beside him to find Ryota sprawled out in a starfish position, arms and legs stretched to their limits. “Classic Ryota. Bold even in his sleep,” Haruto murmured with a chuckle. He grabbed the crumpled blanket from the foot of…-

I stepped out of my room and stood in front of Ryota's, right next door. After dinner, Haruto-kun had been keeping Ryota entertained the entire time. Ryota was obviously thrilled about it, so I couldn’t really complain. But from my perspective as his girlfriend, I couldn’t help feeling a little put out about having my boyfriend “stolen” by my little brother all evening. That’s why I wanted to have a quick chat with Haruto-kun before bed, just to say goodnight. With that thought in mind,…-
