Ch. 17: Miku

...Forgive brother, yes, Miku? If brother had come sooner, maybe you wouldn't be like this....

...\=•\=•\=...

The sun began to immerse itself. The afternoon orange rays begin to fade, indicating that the day has begun to evening. Rey was driving me home on a green motorcycle.

A gentle breeze blew slowly. I who was now embracing Rey's waist also felt a very comfortable warmth. The road in the city that slowly began to quiet, further added to my comfort.

It was so comfortable that I didn't realize we were both home. "Ai, we've arrived" said Rey softly.

"Eeh .. It turns out that it has arrived. I-I don't know hehe ...." I took my arms off Rey. "Eemm .. a-I go in first, yeah ...." I got off Rey's bike and walked into the house.

"Ehhc ... AI'S!" rey called me.

I immediately stopped my steps and turned around when I heard his call. "What's up, Rey?" my many.

"Helm .. You forgot to take off the helmet," Rey said, pointing at my head, who was still wearing a helmet.

"Eh .. yes, I forgot haha ...." I walked towards Rey while opening her helmet. "This ...," I said, handing over the helmet Rey lent me.

"Josh ...." Rey took the helmet and hung it on the rearview mirror.

I changed my position to turn around. As he was about to step up, Rey suddenly grabbed me by the shoulder. "Wait a minute, Ai! Your backpack is open on the front. Here, I'll fix it!" said Rey.

"Eh really? If so, let me fix it. Besides, it's not that hard" I said, taking the bag off my arm.

"No need. Let me just shut it back down." Rey walked closer to me. Now, he's standing right behind me. If he ... hey, Ai ... wake up. Don't think strangely.

About a few seconds after that. "Well, okay .. already, Ai," he said. He walked back to his bike.

As expected, Rey is not that kind of man. I believe that he is a good man. About, how did her parents look, huh? Are they good as it seems? Hmm .. I'm really curious.

I just realized that he didn't tell me about his background at all. Rey never told me about her parents' work.

"Alright then, Ai. I'll go home first. The day has started in the evening" he said while wearing a helmet and about to start his motorbike.

"R-Rey ...." I called Rey, intending to hold her back in a moment.

"Yes. What's up, Ai?" ask Rey.

I was stunned and silent for a moment. "It's okay, Rey. I-I just want to thank you for everything you gave me today. All of that means a lot. *Arigatou*." I leaned forward to form my right angle.

Actually, I wanted to ask you about Rey's family earlier, but I'm pondering my intentions, I think she wants to keep her privacy.

Rey smiled. "Not to think about. Oh yes, Ai. Don't forget, tomorrow the painting club activities have started. I also have activities at the music club. So, at the time of club activities, I can't be with you" he said, apparently worried about me.

"It's okay, Rey. You focus on doing club music, don't think about me. I'll be fine" I said to calm Rey down.

Rey breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God .. umm .. I said go home first, yeah! The drug!" Rey puts her hand on the gas motorbike preparing to go home. He then waved his hand in the air. After that, Rey runs the bike and goes home. I also waved my hand.

After Rey died, I walked into the house. Just as I opened the door, I suddenly heard the sound of a child in pain.

"HUHHH?! I was shocked when I saw Miku lying on the sofa chair holding her stomach.

I reflexively threw my bag and walked up to him. " Miku, what's wrong with you?" I worry when I see it. Miku's face looked very pale. He was still holding onto his stomach which seemed to be very painful.

"Sir ... hurts ...," he said whimpering in pain as he held onto his stomach.

"I ... la-hungry, Brother," said Miku who turned out to be hungry.

"Hungry? Didn't you cook food for you?" many confused.

"Hm .. hm .. no." Miku shook her head, then continued, "from this morning, mother did not wake up, sister. He said he wasn't feeling well."

"Aah so." I glanced at my mother's room and it turned out to be true. I saw him sleeping with a thick blanket wrapped.

"AAKHH .. pain ...." Miku screamed loudly because her stomach hurt. It definitely made me panic. My attitude became confused and .. I could no longer express it with words.

"Alright well .. Brother will make you food. Wait a minute, yeah!" I immediately ran to the kitchen to make food for her.

I opened the wooden cabinet attached to the upper wall. There, I saw all kinds of food. At the same time, I was confused. What food should I make?

When I was confused, my attention was attracted to an instant ramen noodle. "All right this ..," I said sure. I can't linger anymore, Miku is already starving.

About fifteen minutes later, I came along carrying a tray with a bowl of instant Ramen Noodles served on it. "Miku .. eat this alone, huh? Because you can't make tough food" I said, holding the wooden brown bowl.

Miku nodded her head, obeying what I commanded. "It's okay, Brother ... ouch ...." Miku looks increasingly in pain.

"Eeehhh .. open your mouth. Brother will bribe you," I said as I held the chopsticks and hooked the ramen noodles. "Yes ...!" I told Miku to open her mouth.

My mother complied and opened her mouth. A first bribe landed in his mouth. He looked to chew it very quickly. It seemed, Miku was already very hungry. Hahh .. my poor sister. If only I had come earlier, you might not have become like this. Yumomi, Miku.

"Open his mouth again. A plane would be dataaangg .. hahaha ...." I returned to softly feed him.

"Aaa .. nyam .. nyam .. wahhh .. very good, Brother." Miku smiled happily while chewing the noodles.

"Of course hihi .... All right, let's finish the noodles. There's something I want to give you.

"Umm .. That is, you want to give me a gift?!" asked Miku who looked very enthusiastic.

"Hmm .. You could say so. So let's spend it quickly!" I delivered the third bribe to Miku.

"Yeahayyy! Aaaa!" Miku opened her mouth and devoured the noodles.

I repeated it until the noodles were not left. Tal long ago, Miku had finished eating all her noodles until there was nothing left. In the bowl there is only the sauce.

"Smart child ..," I praised Miku as she stroked her head. I walked to the kitchen to wash the bowl, but Miku suddenly stopped me.

"Hm? Why Miku?" I was confused as to why Miku was blocking me.

Miku pointed at the ramen bowl earlier. "Sister, there's still the sauce in the bowl. I want to spend it." Miku looked up at me with fingers that seemed to open and then close very quickly.

"Hee .. are you sure you want to eat this?" my many.

"Yes, brother" he answered briefly.

I smile. "Alright, but eat it slowly, yes! It's still a little hot." I warned Miku.

"Good ...," she replied.

I put the bowl on the dining table where I fed Miku earlier. Shortly after, Miku climbed up onto the chair. Hee ... It turns out Miku has been able to get on the chair by herself? I didn't expect. My mom is big, yes.

Miku started sipping her noodle soup slowly. While I cleaned up the remnants of the noodles that fell near Miku.
