Not a Date

Haruka wore simple slim dark blue denim, white sneakers, a blue bomber jacket, and a white t-shirt. He didn't wear anything complicated since he was only playing on the outside. He was speechless when Sora decided to change her clothes once again. He didn't say anything and only waited in the living room while waiting for a television."

"Sorry for the wait."

Sora walked out of her room after changing her appearance.

Looking at Sora, Haru had to admit that Sora was the cutest girl in the world (based on his opinion).

Sora tied her hair in a ponytail and wore a white dress, denim jacket, and sneakers. She wore the same style of clothes as him.

Haru nodded and praised. "You're very cute." He gave her a thumbs up.

Sora smiled happily hearing his praise. She changed her appearance because she wanted everyone to think that they were a couple. She pulled his hand and said, "Let's go. I want to see a movie first then we can go to the zoo."

"Sure."

Standing up, Haru was being pulled by Sora who seemed happy with their first outing after a while. He was glad to see her smile and felt glad to invite her outside with him two days ago.

---

They used a taxi since it was faster and it wouldn't be too cramped for Sora.

Haru thought about buying a car in the future, but it seemed that he needed to fasten that plan.

They had arrived on the movie threat and could see a lot of people who came together with their boyfriend or girlfriend.

Looking at the crowd, Haru didn't expect the movie theatre to be a lucrative business.

Sora pulled him to see the poster of the movie which would be shown today.

Haru could see the romance movie with the title "I can't see you" which seemed to be very popular.

'Movie and movie theatre, huh?'

If possible he also wanted to enter that business in the future. Though, he might only enter the movie industry since the movie theatre business needed a lot of capital to be made. Waiting for Sora to make her decision, he also felt curious about what kind of movie would be shown today.

"Let's watch this."

Sora pointed her finger at one of the posters in front of them.

Looking at the direction of her finger, Haru was surprised and asked, "Are you sure?"

Sora nodded and said, "Yeah, I want to watch that movie."

"........."

Haru didn't reject her and agreed. "Let's buy a ticket."

Sora nodded and walked while holding his arm.

If someone saw them no one would think that they were siblings. They would think that Haru and Sora were a couple.

Haru bought the ticket and went to the theatre with Sora. He didn't expect her to choose a horror movie, but he didn't really mind it.

Entering the theatre, Sora hugged his arm tighter since she didn't really like horror movies, but since it was quite a popular movie she was quite curious. Looking at Haru's calm expression, she nodded and felt treasure with him. She looked around and could see a lot of people coming either alone, or with their lover.

Her intention to watch a horror movie was also to tempt him since she felt quite threatened when she heard Kasumigaoka Utaha had met him yesterday. She knew that he didn't have an interest in dating Utaha, but she was worried since she didn't want him to leave her.

Found their seating location, they sat next to each other and didn't need to wait too long before the movie had started.

Haru had to admit the movie was quite good and could scare someone. He enjoyed the movie, but suddenly something hugged his arm tighter. He knew that it wasn't a ghost, but Sora. He looked at Sora and had to admit that this girl was so cute.

'S - so cute!!!'

Haru wanted to hug her telling her that everyone was alright, but he calmed himself. He didn't have a sister complex and he shouldn't do such a thing to Sora.

That was why he did nothing in this situation.

Enjoying their movie, Haru could feel Sora hugging his arm tighter and tighter from time to time which somehow made the blood circulation on his arm disturb and almost made one of his arms blue.

Haru thought that it was really hard to become a good older brother.

---

When the movie ended, they went out together.

Sora kept hugging his arm since she was quite scared of the movie before.

"Are you alright? Do you need to take a rest?" Haru asked. He didn't expect Sora would be this scared after watching a horror movie.

"L, let's take a break in the cafe or something," Sora said.

"Alright."

Haru brought her to the nearby cafe and ordered a parfait, a light meal, and orange juice. He knew that something sweet would make Sora calm. He looked at Sora who kept hugging his arm which was almost numb because of her wondering when this girl was going to let him go.

Sora took a deep breath and let his arm go. After the parfait came to their table, she started to eat it before asking him a question, "Did you hide something from me?"

"Hide something? What do you mean?" Haru asked.

"You've been looking at your smartphone for a while. Did you get a new girlfriend again?"

Sora knew that it wouldn't be hard for Haru to get a girlfriend, and he had a lot of girlfriends in the past. She didn't think much since she knew that their relationship wouldn't that long, but it didn't mean that she liked it. She wanted him to become her own and focus only on her alone.

Haru shook his head and said, "No. I don't have a girlfriend and as I've said before that I don't have a plan to make one for now."

"For now?"

"For now."

Haru nodded. He patted Sora's head and said, "You don't need to worry too much. My head is full of you now."

Sora blushed and asked, "Then, why are you looking at your smartphone so much before?"

Haru thought for a while and said, "I want to buy a house." He was quite unsure to tell Sora about the "group chat" and decided to bluff her.

Haruka nodded, "Yeah, you don't need to worry that much."

"Eh?"

Sora was surprised and asked, "Why? Are we going to move?"

Haru shook his head and said, "No, I want to make a cafe?"

"Cafe?"

Sora was surprised but looked at him with a confused expression since she didn't expect him to want to make a cafe. She knew that his food was good, but she only wanted it for herself alone, but it didn't mean that she would forbid him since she knew that his food was very good.

"Why?"

"I have a friend who has a restaurant. I've also thought about creating one for a while. I guess it'll be a good way for me to kill time since I'm quite free now."

Yajima owned a restaurant in his world and Haru thought that he could learn from Yajima later.

Sora nodded and asked, "Have you found the house?"

"Yeah. I've searched for it online before. It's quite good and cheap. But I need to call our aunt before I can buy it later."

"Aunt?!"

Sora was startled and had a quite uncomfortable expression on her face.

"Don't show such a face. We're still minor after all and she's our legal guardian," Haru said while caressing Sora's head.

"But we're alright on our own!" Sora said.

"I know. That's why I'm working hard now. You don't need to worry too much and continue to study since next year we're going to have the same high school," Haru said. Looking at her reaction, he wondered whether he had spoiled her too much.

Resting her head on Haru's shoulder, Sora asked, "Haru... we'll be always together, right?"

Drinking his orange juice, Haru was a bit surprised by Sora's question. He looked at her while looking at him with teary eyes. He knew that their relationship might be quite hard to realize when they were a brother and sister, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, we will."

"Good."

Smiling happily, Sora continued to eat her parfait.

".............."

Drinking his orange juice again, Haru was wondering whether it was a good idea to do this. He decided to not overthink everything and thought about enjoying his day today.
