Calm before the storm
After finishing interrogating the Private investigator Eguchi Adachi, Kaneki destroyed his blood clone and continued house work with his sister before going to bed.
Kaneki: hey Miku, let's start our cooking lessons tomorrow after school.
Miku: it was supposed to be today after all!
Kaneki: I know, I'm sorry but do your best tomorrow.
Miku smiled and replied.
Miku: thanks, I will.
Seeing her smile made Kaneki happy, it even made him smile as well.
Miku: Onii-chan looks so happy!
Kaneki: of course I am, anyways go take bath and go to sleep.
Miku: yeah... Hey Onii-chan what about we bathe together?
Miku suddenly made a sudden request to Kaneki to bathe together.
Kaneki: huh? Why?
Miku: I mean we used to bathe a lot back then.
Kaneki: Miku, were kids back then, when we entered middle school we stopped doing that.
Miku: I know, I just want to have a bath with my Onii-chan again after a long time.
Kaneki: I'm against it, but knowing you you'll still bug me until I agree right?
Miku: yup! You know me very well!
Kaneki: I guess I have no choice huh? Fine.
Miku: yay! I'm going to prepare the bath.
Kaneki: okay~
Miku then went upstairs and started preparing the Bath.
Kaneki: seriously, what's with her recently?
Kaneki was still puzzled with Miku's current behavior, to him it's as if he's seeing the old Miku before meeting Ryueki.
Kaneki: well whatever, it's great to see her happy.
20 minutes later*
After finishing the bath, Miku came down stairs to call Kaneki.
Miku: Onii-chan, the bath is prepared you better come in soon.
Kaneki: I will, I'll just go get my clothes.
Miku: I'll be waiting.
Miku then went to the bath.
Kaneki: alright, time to get my clothes.
Kaneki then went to his room to get his clothes.
In the bathroom*
Miku: hehe~ I can't wait.
Miku was patiently waiting for Kaneki to come in.
And then.
Kaneki: I'm coming in.
Miku: enjoy the bath Onii-chan.
Kaneki came in the bathroom without clothes.
He first rinsed himself and after that he joined Miku in the bath.
Miku: Onii-chan can you wash my back?
Kaneki: yeah sure.
Kaneki took the soapy cloth and began washing Miku's back.
Miku: Haa~ it's so relaxing, you're really good at this Onii-chan.
Kaneki: thanks, umm.. you can wash your lower parts and front now.
Kaneki handed Miku the cloth.
Miku: thanks.
Miku then cleaned the parts Kaneki left out.
Miku: you want me to-
Kaneki: No.
Miku was going to wash Kaneki's back but Kaneki immediately rejected her request.
Kaneki: okay, here then wash yourself.
Kaneki then started washing himself.
Miku: I'm going to drain the water.
Kaneki: huh? Why?
Miku: well the water is really soapy now, it would be better if it wasn't.
Kaneki: Ahh~ I see. Okay then
Miku removed the bathtub's plug and removed all the water, she then turned of the warm water and waited it to fill up the bathtub.
After 5 minutes the bathtub was full again.
Kaneki: Haa~ this is relaxing.
Miku: yeah, it is.
Kaneki: hey Miku.
Miku: what is it?
Kaneki: I forgot to wash my hair, can I get out of bath and was it?
Kaneki forgot to wash his hair and he really wants to clean it.
Miku: sure, you do have long hair after all.
Kaneki: thanks!
Kaneki got out of the bathtub and began washing his hair in the shower with warm water.
After washing it he join Miku in the bath again.
Miku: you take really good acteof your hair huh?
Kaneki: yup, I use your shampoo after all.
Miku: what?! Is that why my shampoo runs out all the time?!
Kaneki: yeah, sorry.
Miku: no wonder everyone mistakes you for a girl you use girls shampoo.
Kaneki: shampoo is shampoo if I see it I'll use it.
Miku: really?
Kaneki: yup.
Miku: hey Onii-chan.
Kaneki: what is it?
Miku: I'm honestly surprised when you used that gun yesterday, seriously and it wasn't like guns that look high tech or anything it looks like a real gun.
Kaneki: that's because it is.
Miku: eh? Seriously? Well you did say it was from your senpai but who exactly is this senpai?
Kaneki: oh she's... I don't want to talk about it.
Miku: huh? Why?
Kaneki didn't respond.
Miku: oh... I see, sorry.
Kaneki: it's alright, anyways do you think mom and dad will bring souvenirs when they get back?
Miku: probably, also it's great to see you call them mom and dad now.
Kaneki: what are you talking about?
Miku: well you have been calling them mother and father all the time since Sachi-Oneechan left.
Kaneki: for real?
Miku: yup.
Kaneki: ... I have to apologize to them when they get back.
Miku: yeah you should.
Kaneki and Miku the went silent for a while and then.
Miku: hey Onii-chan.
Kaneki: hmm? What is it?
Miku: thank you for being my brother.
Kaneki: oh you're welcome.
Miku: you've been taking care of me this whole time and always helped me, thank you.
Kaneki: well I am your Onii-chan so of course I'll help even now I'm helping you by finding that bully.
Miku: yeah, thank you... Hey Onii-chan.
Kaneki: ?
Miku: I-
Before Miku could tell Kaneki something she got up.
Miku: I'm done I'll be going to dry up and get changed for bed.
Kaneki: oh okay.
Miku got out of the bath and dried herself and got changed.
Miku: well let's do our best tomorrow in our training.
Kaneki: let's do our best!
After that, Miku got out of the bathroom and went to her room.
Kaneki: what's with that kid? She's acting strange.
In Miku's room*
Miku: Ahhhh!
(I can't believe I almost confessed to Onii-chan!)
Apparently the reason why she left early was because she almost confessed to Kaneki which made her embarrassed.
(Now isn't a good time for that! Thank goodness I was able to stop it)
Miku: sigh~ what do I do now?
Miku was wondering what she'll do so she could get closer Kaneki so she could apologize.
Meanwhile in the bathroom*
"She got the information"
Kaneki: good, now go get me information about her and her family.
"Got it"
With getting notified by Eguchi, Kaneki began talking to himself.
Kaneki: this is a horrible plan but I'll do anything to help Miku and I'll make sure they don't get hurt too.
What is Kaneki's plan? And what is he up to?
