She certainly does look similar, but...

Judging from her age, it must be coincidence.

Thinking about it normally, yes.

She doesn't recognize the name Yoshino?

No. She said she never heard of it.

But...

I can understand how you feel, Kiyotaka.

Wh-What's wrong?

Right here and now? Kiyotaka-san, you're being too daring.

Just like I thought. You have an awful fever, don't you?

You caught me, huh...

You can't push yourself like this.

Kiyotaka.

I think it's great that you realized she was feeling bad,

But suddenly pressing your forehead against another girls' is...

It's dirty.

Um, I don't mind. I'm actually kind of happy...

A Place Where I Can Rely on You

I'm sorry, Kiyotaka-san.

It's fine, don't worry.

Ricca-san even gave her permission.

Now I'm causing problems for the others at work, too.

You're working too much, Aoi-chan.

Well, you need all kinds of things when you live alone.

That, and I love working.

But you need to take care of your health, too, or...

Yes, I'll be careful.

But how did you find out I had a fever?

Well, you weren't acting like your usual self.

I wasn't? I'm pretty confident in my perseverance, though...

Plus, no one else noticed anything today.

And that kind of perseverance only—

I know.

I won't hide things from you, Kiyotaka-san.

Besides, you've already figured out my other secret...

Huh? What secret?

The fact that I...

That I actually have big breasts.

Wha—?! Aoi-chan?!

I can't do anything else to thank you,

so I hope you'll at least enjoy this soft, womanly touch.

Wait! Hold on!

What are you doing?

Sakura?!

No, it's not what you think!

I'm, um...

She has a fever!

She caught a cold, so I was just carrying her home!

So that's why your face is so red.

No, I'm not the one with a fever.

Hello, Sakura-chan.

I'm Hinomoto Aoi. Nice to meet you.

Um, I'm Sakura.

And this is Utamaru!

Is she one of your friends? Will she play with me, too?

Sorry, Sakura. Today, we can't.

I see... Not with a cold, I guess.

I'm sorry, Sakura-chan.

Will you play when you're better?

Yeah.

Yay! It's a promise!

Bye-bye, Aoi! Onii-chan!

"Onii-chan," huh?

Are you alright?

I just pushed myself a bit too much.

Come on, let's go home.

And this time, behave yourself on my back.

Yes.

Do you have medicine?

Yes. It's in the medicine box on the dresser.

It might be good for you to eat something first, though.

I don't want any.

You need to eat something. Does rice porridge work?

Will you blow on it,

and feed me?

If that'll get you to eat it, sure.

I'm borrowing the kitchen.

Kiyotaka-san's so nice. Just like an older brother.

Hm? Did you say something?

Oh, um, uh, I have a request before the porridge, but...

You should get some rest.

I'll help you out any way I can.

Then... please help me change.

Wh-What?!

I said, please help me change.

My pajamas are in that basket there,

and my underwear is in the dresser,

in the second drawer from the bottom.

Wait, wait, wait! Change?!

And did you just say underwear?!

I can't help it, I can't move.

It's not good for my health to go to sleep sweaty, so...

That's true, but...

But Aoi-chan, you're a girl.

You need to change yourself...

You just said you'd do anything to help, didn't you?

Take full responsibility for your promises.

Half-hearted kindness isn't very nice.

Besides, I trust you, Kiyotaka-san.

Is Aoi all right?

Nii-san's with her.

I want Aoi-chan to get better too...

But still!

I know how you feel...

Uh-huh.

This is a bit embarrassing, isn't it?

Um... Can you lift your body?

Doesn't seem so. I can't get it to move...

Will you hold me up?

S-Sure...

I'm sorry for all the trouble.

My underwear too, please.

A-Are you really... sure?

I'll close my eyes for you...

I don't...

Um...

Could you pull your legs out of them?

Y-Yes!

They're out!

Uh, and now...

U-Um! C-Can I actually have you turn the other way for me?!

I-I'll do my best with the rest!

C-Certainly! Will do!

I'm sorry about today.

My mind kind of went blurry, and I wasn't thinking straight.

No,

I think I let myself go along a bit too far...

Sometimes moods are scary, aren't they?

I let the fever take control and relied on you too much...

I think it might have gone up another 10 degrees.

If it went up that much, you'd be dead.

I just wanted to be a little selfish with you,

but I failed, big time...

Then just relax and get some rest for today.

Yes. I will.

It's time for me to go home too.

I'm sure Lulu-nee is worried.

U-Um...

No, thank you very much for today.

Take care, okay?

I will.

I overheated today...

The stairs to adulthood are long and hard...

Huh? Aoi-chan's not here?

No. Apparently she took the day off.

Sara, can I ask you to pass a message

on to Ricca-san and the others?

All right, I'll them know, so please go.

Uh, but I haven't told you...

Don't worry.

I'm not dense like you, Sempai.

Um, may I ask you something?

If I was the one in trouble, would you be just as kind to me?

Of course I would.

I see.

Please hurry up and go.

Oh, yeah. Thanks, Sara.

Ah! Kiyotaka-san!

What are you doing here all of a sudden?

I came to pay you a visit. Here.

I'm sorry. I guess I made you worry about me?

I'm relieved, though.

You look a lot better than yesterday.

I'm sorry for letting you see me at my worst yesterday.

No, that's not true...

B-But you even came all this way to cook for me...

That's because I didn't get to make anything for you yesterday.

How's your appetite?

Great!

Oh! I'll help with the cooking.

I'm here to look after you, so go ahead and rest.

No, no, I can't do that!

I'll get my battle outfit on!

I'm glad to see Aoi-chan's feeling better.

"Battle outfit"?

Sorry for the wait!

How is it? How is it?

To thank you for coming to visit me,

I literally stripped down to help!

Are you actually ignoring me?!

If you ignore me, then even I won't know how I'm supposed to react!

Oh... Well... I think you should just put clothes on.

Wha—?!

What's with that reaction?!

The things men dream of are right under here!

I doubt they dream of them...

Oh-ho?

Can you say that after looking directly

at my tender naked apron figure?

Can you say you don't lust after it?

Come on, Kiyotaka-san!

O-Oh right, need to make that stew.

Food before romance?!

Are you saying I have less sex appeal than a stew?

That's not what I mean...

Come on, if you're in an outfit like that, I'll be too distracted to cook...

It draws your attention?

Yes, so could you please put some clothes on for my sake?

I guess I'll have to then.

All right. Hinamoto Aoi will go get changed!

Oh, right... Hold on a second.

Here you go, Aoi-chan.

You're not going to feed me?

Yesterday you said you would, right?

But that's just a little... too embarrassing...

You're right. In that case...

Would you mind if I called you Onii-chan sometimes instead?

I don't mind, but...

Really?!

Y-Yeah, I don't mind that at all.

Yay! Now my childhood dream is fulfilled!

I was an only child, so I always wanted an older brother!

But, are you alright with me?

Yes!

Kiyotaka-san, you're just like my ideal older brother!

Thank goodness.

I should have asked you this sooner in that case.

And here I've just been spinning my wheels since yesterday...

Less spinning your wheels...

And more running wild, right?

I, um, I don't mind, but...

When I'm by myself I get lonely...

and I just wanted to try being selfish with you...

I thought that way we could be like real siblings...

Aoi-chan...

Can I ask one more thing from you?

Huh?

Afterwards, would you mind sleeping beside me until I fall asleep?

No, that's going a bit too far!

Just until I fall asleep!

Would you, please? Onii-chan?

People really grow nervous when they're sick, don't they?

We want people to be by our side,

and we want to feel someone's warmth.

So, thank you very much for listening to my request.

Well, um...

Kiyotaka-san, where you by chance thinking something dirty?

I wasn't!

If I were thinking dirty things,

wouldn't you be the one in trouble, Aoi-chan?

Well, I guess that's true.

I guess it's just, you know?

I'm a woman too, after all.

And one who hides her big breasts well.

And yet you keep ignoring me, right?

That's because, well, I can't betray your trust in me...

In that case!

As thanks, you can do whatever

you want with me after I fall asleep, so...

H-Hey, Aoi-chan!

Being like this puts me at ease.

Do you mind if we stay like this a while?

I-It's all right, but...

Good night, Onii-chan.

Is she asleep now?

I need to get home.

Onii-chan...

Oh well.

I'm home.

I see. The student council, huh?

Where were you last night?

Himeno?!

I asked you where were you last night?

You didn't come home until this morning,

and you never gave anyone a call.

Were you worried, by chance?

Of course I was!

Obviously, I'd be worried if you didn't come home!

Um, I was taking care of Aoi-chan,

and then I sort of drifted off...

I'm sorry.

Taking care of her is well and good,

and I do trust you, Nii-san, so I'll forgive you for now.

Thank you...

But!

Charles-san was incredibly worried.

She said she was going to look for you in the middle of the night,

and it was hard stopping her.

I'll apologize to her later...

As many times as it takes...

Then, hurry up and change. The bus is leaving soon.

Huh? Nii-san, aren't you a bit lightly dressed?

Huh? Oh, yeah...

Well, it's been getting warmer lately.

Has it?

I don't think so, but...

Taka-kun, you're going out of your way

to make me worry about you, aren't you?

No! I promise I'm not!

Are you being rebellious?

I'm not, there really wasn't anything I could do about it...

Charles, I think it's about time you forgave him.

Taka-kun, we're continuing this when we get home!

It's not over...

Everyone, I'm sorry for making you worry!

I'm fully recovered now!

Aoi-chan!

That's great. You look a lot better too.

Are you feeling good now?

Yes! I received lots of power from Kiyotaka-san!

Right, Onii-chan?

"Onii-chan"?

You received power from him, huh...

Ah! That's how Taka-kun acts when he's dodging the subject!

I wonder if anything foul happened.

It seems you were awfully nice to that little sister, Nii-san.

So, what happened?

Nothing happened.

We just shared the same bed.

How dirty.

It would appear

that we need to be discussing something else

at today's meeting.

The Place Overflowing With Love, Dreams, and Hope

Hinomoto Aoi-chan, your naked apron was amazing!

Thank you very much!

That part of a woman is filled with love!

No, dreams! No, the romance of all men!

"That part" is where?

Next time: The Place Overflowing with Love, Dreams, and Hope!

Paradise, no, Shangri-La, is so close!

Here's some service!
