"How did Yamazaki ..... meet you?"
It's a name I don't want to remember. It was the name of someone I used to hang out with when I was a delinquent. After I stopped being a delinquent, I barely saw him anymore.
Since I didn't want to see Yamazaki, I stopped hanging out near my house. When I got out, I got on the train and went somewhere. At best, I walked around the neighborhood just to shop.
Even if I see his face once in a while, I will go unnoticed.
"...... I don't know. Suddenly, he spoke to me, saying, 'You're Naoya's sister, aren't you?'"
"...... Then?"
I don't know what's going on with Yamazaki now. But when I met him before, his appearance didn't change much. Her red hair was still the same, and she was still wearing the same clothes. She's my age, so she must be sitting in high school.
"And I said, "Yes, and so?". Then he said, "I understand," and left. I recall. That guy must be my brother's annoying friend."
"Are you sure there's nothing more than that?"
"Yes." Yeah."
I thought back to when I was hanging out with Yamazaki.
I didn't do anything good. I always fight with other students I don't know very well. I even got into a fight late at night and was arrested.
I was always with him.
Back then, being with Yamazaki was the most fun.
"Stay there for a minute."
I rushed to the front door and opened it.
I just pulled out my face and looked around.
There's no one there. There is only the darkness of a silent night.
Relieved, I closed the door. I wondered if he was still standing in front of the house.
This time, I headed to the living room. I looked out the window.
There's no one there either. Only a gloomy sight lay before me.
When I returned to Sayaka, she told me.
"Are you not being too careful? You guys used to be friends, right?"
"Yes, but..."
Not that he's the bad guy to watch out for. He has some good points. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to become friends, even if only for a while.
"So annoying sister, you have a scary face"
"......"
"He's very tall, isn't he? When you look at him up close, you can almost see that he is about 185 years old. He's very handsome, and he's not the kind of guy you'd expect at our school."
The more I heard about him, the more I was sure. That must be Yamazaki.
The question is, why now? It's been four years since we dated.
"By the way, where is he talking to you?"
In response to my question, Sayaka pointed behind her.
"There, to the station. It's about a hundred yards from here."
The house is not identified.
"Is he alone...... The yamazaki? Is there anyone else with him?"
Sayaka shook her head.
"Nobody's there. She's alone. No one looks like a delinquent, not even from a distance."
"alright. Just be careful, okay? If you want, I'll take you home from now on."
"No, thank you. You don't have to do that much."
Even if Yamazaki himself is not that bad, I cannot guarantee the quality of the people who are with him.
"By the way, if anything happens, call me. I'll be there soon."
"You're exaggerating. Okay, okay, I get it."
I'm glad I have a day off tomorrow and the next day. In addition, I have a midterm exam starting next Monday. I usually go home earlier than usual when I have exams. That way, the chances of meeting Yamazaki and the others would decrease.
"Don't hang out too much on the weekends. Stay home as much as possible and, yes, learn."
When I said that, Sayaka looked unhappy.
"Eh~ why? Is your friend dangerous?"
"It's not like that, but..."
No, but I was wondering how he was doing right now.
At that moment, Yamazaki was rude, but he did not do anything rash. At least, her being my sister won't make her do anything wrong. But that was four years ago. The Yamazaki at that time may have changed.
"If you go on Saturday or Sunday."
"What's? I don't want to."
" I'm worried about you. You have a pretty face, at least"
"Oh, that's a very disrespectful thing to say. If this is a battlefield, you'll be marked for death."
"Don't kill people without permission."
Whatever the case, we cannot leave the situation as it is now.
In some cases, I may have to speak to Yamazaki directly. But for now, there is no specific damage. After all, my priority is to ensure the safety of my family.
"It's not the first time you've been worried, is it? Yes yes. I'll do what you say~"
Saying that Sayaka walked up the stairs.
He swore a lot, but it turned out he was very straightforward. I always took care of her, but she rarely refused to do anything. I guess she got used to it and gave up on the idea that her brother was a troublesome being.
I let out a loud sigh after confirming that Sayaka had left.
Yamazaki's. Hiroyoshi Yamazaki's. At the time, he was a student at a nearby state junior high school.
We may meet again soon. I have a strong feeling that we might meet again soon.
–Anything, let's take a shower.
I opened the bathroom sliding door.
