"I understand, Mom." Upon hearing her mother's words, Yui stood up and suddenly thought of something, so she went over to Mrs. Yuigahaima.
"Hmm? Yui, what's wrong? Aren't you going to take a bath?" Mrs. Yuigahaima looked at Yui, feeling a bit puzzled.
Approaching her mother, Yui hugged her and rested her chin on her ample chest, looking up with a silly smile. "Mom, can you do me a favor?"
Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Yuigahaima was both amused and puzzled.
"What is it? Tell me."
"Hehe, it's... it's about... Mom, can you make a bento for Hikigaya tomorrow morning?"
"Hachiman never brings a bento. He can only eat the bread from the convenience store for lunch. It's so pitiful."
"That's why, Mom, please." Yui pleaded, looking at her mother with puppy dog eyes.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yuigahaima couldn't help but feel both exasperated and amused. When Yui was little and wanted a doll, she often had the same look in her eyes. She never expected that even when she grew up, she would still be the same.
"Alright, Mom promises you. Now go take a bath." Mrs. Yuigahaima patted Yui's forehead and smiled indulgently.
"Yay! Mom is the best! I'll go take a bath now." Yui cheered upon hearing her mother's promise, then quickly ran towards the bathroom.
Watching her daughter's figure, Mrs.Yuigahama shook her head.
It seemed that her silly daughter was really serious about this "Hikigaya" person.
Since that's the case, let this mother help her out.
------------------------
Early the next morning.
Hachiman and Komachi sat at the dining table, having breakfast.
After taking a sip of milk, Komachi suddenly thought of something and said, "Onii-chan, how are things going between you and Yui-neechan?"
Swallowing the food in his mouth, Hachiman looked puzzled. "What do you mean? Yui and I are still the same."
"Ah, Onii-chan, you're so clueless." Komachi sighed as if she couldn't stand his ignorance.
"It's been so long, and you still haven't won over Yui-neechan. What if someone else snatches her away? You have to work harder, Onii-chan."
Hearing her words, Hachiman felt a bit helpless.
Has it already been that long?
It has only been a month since school started, and I've already been on a date with Yui. That's not slow progress, is it?
"I've already been on a date with Yui last week. I don't think my progress is slow." Hachiman protested.
I don't want your opinion, I want mine.
Hearing him say that, Komachi became even more annoyed.
"You still don't get it, my foolish Onii-chan."
"You went on a date with Yui-neechan for a whole day and didn't even get a kiss. It's really a failure."
Tch, if it weren't for Haruno interference that day, I would have kissed Yui long ago.
"Based on Yui-neechan's current situation, her liking for you is definitely not low."
"According to my analysis, you should go out with her again this week and make sure to seize the opportunity to kiss her. You must kiss Yui-neechan." Komachi analyzed confidently, planning everything.
However, Hachiman listened with a vein popping on his forehead.
Kissing is not something you can easily do to a girl. Can you just kiss someone as you please?
"Oh, Onii-chan, you're so clueless." As if she knew what he was thinking, Komachi continued.
"If you can't kiss her, then why not force a kiss? If you manage to kiss her, it will definitely leave a deep impression on Yui-neechan."
"If one time is not enough, then try again. Show her your domineering side. Nowadays, girls fall for that."
Hearing these words, Hachiman rolled his eyes.
"Forget about forcing a kiss. I don't want to end up in jail."
"If you're afraid of going to jail for Yui-neechan, can you really claim to like her?" Komachi looked at him with disdain and continued.
"Don't worry, Onii-chan. Based on Yui-neechan's personality, she won't send you to jail. Instead, there's a higher chance she'll be all shy and flustered."
Wow, you seem pretty experienced at this.
Seeing his sister analyzing everything so confidently, as if she were an expert in love, Hachiman felt a bit terrified.
Could it be that my precious little sister has been taken away without me realizing it?
Komachi is only 14 years old. Who the hell would dare to make a move on her?
"Komachi, tell me honestly. Are you in a relationship?" Hachiman looked at her seriously.
If someone dares to make a move on Komachi, I'll call the police and send them to jail.
"Oh my, Onii-chan, you're so silly. I'm only 14 years old, how could I be in a relationship?" Komachi rolled her eyes, feeling speechless.
"Phew, as long as you're not in a relationship." Hachiman breathed a sigh of relief.
"Seriously, Onii-chan, don't change the subject. What do you think about my suggestion? Invite Yui-neechan out again this week and try to win her over."
"Why are you in such a hurry for this? Besides, I have other things to do this week."
"Hmm..."
Hearing his words, Komachi pouted, looking a bit unhappy.
She had worked so hard to arrange everything for him, but this foolish Onii-chan of hers didn't seem to appreciate it.
However, when she heard that he had other plans this week, Komachi became curious instead.
She felt that her Onii-chan had indeed changed quite a bit.
He hadn't been staying at home on weekends like before.
It should be noted that Hachiman used to never leave the house on weekends.
"Oh, Onii-chan, what are your plans for this week?"
Hachiman took a sip of milk and explained, "I've joined the school's kendo club, you know."
"Ah, I see," Komachi nodded, encouraging him to continue.
"In the club, there's a senpai whose family runs a kendo dojo, and she invited me to practice at her place this Saturday."
"Wow, a senpai from the kendo club! Is she pretty?" Komachi suddenly got excited at the thought of a senpai inviting Hachiman.
"Well, she's quite attractive, but why do you ask?"
"Come on, Onii-chan, do you think this senpai could become my future sister-in-law?"
"You're getting ahead of yourself. We're just club members, nothing more," Hachiman rolled his eyes at her persistent question.
Hmm, wait a second.
Why does this conversation feel familiar?
"Oh, being in the same club is even better, Onii-chan, it's a great opportunity for you." Komachi didn't seem to mind.
You're overthinking it. If I were to make a move on that senpai, Saeko-senpai would probably break my legs with a wooden sword.
Her family runs a kendo dojo, and they are from the Busujima Clan, and they might even have real swords.
Even though I've improved my physical fitness to level three, I'm not invincible.
As they say, even a skilled fighter fears a sharp kitchen knife.
I'm not at the point where I'm immune to blades.
And even if I have delusions of being able to win over some girls, that's just my imagination.
Besides, if we're talking about club members, isn't Kotonoha a better target?
Maybe ''''...''''
