After Coincidentally Saving the New Transfer Student’s Little Sister, We Gradually Grew Closer - CH 36

“Aaaah! Emma is going too!”

Now in front of Charlotte’s room Emma was trying her best to keep me from going to school.

She was pulling my arm with her little body.

Well, it was still easy to shake her off if I put effort into it ,due to the difference in physique, but being pulled like this by Emma, discouraged me from doing so..

I also wanted to play with her, ​​but I can’t take her to school.

And also, I couldn’t take days off just for playing around.

I bent down and gently stroked her head to match her line of sight.

“I’m sorry, Emma. I will play with you again this evening, so will you wait until then?”

Emma looked at my face with tears when I said so.

It seemed like she wanted to say something, but I turned away.

Then I saw Emma gasp.

I guess she didn’t expect me to turn away.

The doorway was silent, as if she was no longer being selfish.

I was relieved that I could go to school with this, but Emma wasn’t so naive.

“Oni-chan … Emma … hate …?”

Through a small but firm voice that reached my ears, Emma asked me anxiously.

It was a tearful voice and seemed that she will cry at any moment, and if I left as it is, I felt that this voice will remain in my head forever.

“No, Aoyagi-kun. If you turn around, you lose.”

When I lost the temptation of Emma and tried to turn around, Charlotte, who was listening to the exchange between me and Emma in front of the entrance, stopped me.

(…… Charlotte is sly …

You said it in Japanese so that she wouldn”t understand …?)

Yeah, she told me in Japanese for not to be disliked by Emma …

“Aoyagi-kun, We’ll be late for school…!”

“No, I know that … somehow this kid …”

“Nope…! she just wants to play with Aoyagi-kun, so she won’t listen to anything …! didn’t you get through her trump card just now ?!”

She’s not going to give up …?

But that’s what her sister Charlotte says …

And also, what is the trump card …?

I was wondering what the trump card Charlotte talked about was and when did Emma use it ?, and I took a glance at Charlotte who still refused to make an eye contact.

Then, for some reason, her cheeks began to turn red.

Maybe she has a fever …?

–Kui kui.

“What’s wrong ?……Ah–”

While I was thinking about Charlotte, Emma pulled the sleeve of my clothes and when I turned around.

My eyes met with Emma, who was staring at me with moist eyes.

“Oniichan…… Emma wants to be with Oniichan……. Please take Emma with you. ……?”

Emma, ​​who said in a sweet voice, hugged me.

(　its okay to take a rest for about a day …….

The perfect attendance award will fly because I can’t take her to school, but Emma should take higher priority.)

“Okay, good–”

“-It’s no good)

When I tried to nod to Emma’s requests, Charlotte immediately pulled Emma from me.

And I tried to take her back to the room as it is.

“Hello Lotti! Don’t mess with me!”

“I am not messing with you! and also you will have to wait until we come back! “

“Wow ah ah! Onii-chan! “

Emma, ​​who was taken away, was crying and reaching for me, I felt like Charlotte would get angry if I say something now, so I put up with it.

“… Aoyagi always listens to Emma more than me…”

Charlotte, who returned without Emma, ​​swelled her cheeks and muttered. I watched her from sideways for a while because of her childish and cute appearance.
