I Was Just an Only Child Boy, Now I Became One of a Four Quadruplet Sisters - CH 19
I am placing the daughters + brother here for me honestly but also a reminder, I guess.
Nishi Yotsutsuji daughters.
The first daughter is Asahi (朝日)(Morning sun)
The second daughter is Mahiru (真昼)(Mid day)
third daughter named Yuudachi(夕立)(Evening Shower)Protagonist.(Yuu-chan)
The fourth daughter is Yoru.(夜留)(Night)
The older brother Souji.(奏時)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Summer vacation is over. And the next semester began.Around this time I finally sorted my heart and I(俺) changed now to I(私).
Though recently the gazes from my sisters and Souji are strange. . .
Specifically it started on the last day of summer vacation.Once I saw them at dinner that day.
They gazed at me(私) with bright red faces and smiles.I could sometimes hear whispers like ”I want to see Yuu-chan’s happy expression again. . .”and “I wonder if she will idle again today?”
What are they even talking,perhaps.
Did they see me resting. . . .?
However i thought that the door was locked. . . But if that was the case what are they talking about.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today’s afternoon lessons were held in homeroom.Currently we are being told about what tomorrows athletic meeting is.
We knew about the athletic meeting since three weeks ago.So today it is the plan for that day.
I thought it would be impossible to explain something so complicated to first year students.And by impossible i meant that around 50% the explanation there were then calls like “I will win first prize!” trying to motivate people. That was more than I expected. . . .
And with that pre show the set the athletic meeting began the next day.
I(私) will compete in the 50 meter run.(TN:from now on she uses 私 watashi.)
The 50 meter run is a 4 tier event with a long obstacle course at the end.
( 五十メートル走は四番目の種目なので、今行われている障害物競走が終わればいよいよ私の番だ。 五十メートル走は四番目の種目なので、今行われている障害物競走が終わればいよいよ私の番だ。)(TN:thats a long one, i just need to make sure.)
The teacher went to set up the fifty meter dash.
I recognize that face.It seems like they haven’t noticed me on the opposite side.With a nervous face and sweating palms.
“Asahi!”
I called out to Asahi and she jumped up from the spook.
And then she awkwardly turned towards me.
“Eh,W-what is it Yuu-chan? Don’t scare me.”
“Sorry sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you. . . .Asahi you weren’t in the fifty meter dash, so why are you lined up here?”
(Tn: need to pop in to comment sorry for breaking the pace. But i just need to note that Yuu-chan was able to recognize Asahi and Asahi was able to recognize Yuu-chan. It shows that they all can tell who each other are because of how close they are.Even though they all look exactly the same. That’s cute and subtle.)
She was suppose to be in the ball toss game.
When I asked her that question she lightly smiled.
“The child who was suppose to be apart of it was out sick.So I decided to take their place seeing as I am the fastest in my class.”
I see. So that is the reason.
Thanks to our lineage us sisters have quite good athletic abilities.
Even though we are in the “Girl section” Asahi could compete with the boys instead in a mixed competition. Because as girls and boys don’t have much a difference in capabilities when they are still in the first grade.
“Is that so? However sorry, but I will win.”
“No! I will never lose!”
While giving a happy grin, Asahi has seemed to calm down as expected.
I’ve picked up on the fact but it seems that Asahi is extremely competitive and hates to lose. So I thought that would calm her a bit.
With a snap she pointed at me.
The tension in her eyes are gone.
It seems she truly calmed down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The game ended with Asahi being the victor.
It was a close match with me being only behind by a second.
My body is that of an elementary student, but I ran until I got sweating running at full speed but I couldn’t beat her.
Me and Asahi grouped up and chatted for a bit then Mahiru and Yoru came walking towards us. And for some reason had cheeks pouted.
“Yuu-chan! Next I also run together next year!”
“Me too.”
Well I didn’t expect that. It seems that they became jealous by seeing Asahi and me running together.
However. . . .
“. . . .Ma-chan you are in the same class so isn’t that you can’t compete against each other?”
The atmosphere became awkward. Asahi spoke the truth beside me.
“Uuu. . . .Asa-chan that’s rude. . .”
Mahiru visible depressed. Ahh, I feel bad for her. I’ll help her.
“C-calm down Mahiru. Surely we can’t compete but we are in the same class, so if we can’t compete we’ll team up and challenge Asahi and Yoru. Does that sound alright?”
“. . .! Yea! Yea!”
Mahiru lite up with a smile.
We’ll that was settled.
However it seems that now Asahi and Yoru fell down now. Apparently its seems tough to be unable to team up with me.
Nnn, How did it end up like this. . .
I was at my wits end.
. . . . .And that was the origins of ShiraYuki’s famous quadruplet race.

“No, why aren’t they here supporting me. . . .”
With his sister being not being to his sidelong glance. Contrary to the kya’s* towards him .He looks for them. Please look at me. . . .( ワイワイキャイキャイしている姉妹を横目に一人佇む奏時。誰か一人でも良い。僕を見てくれ……。)(TN:Idk)
Contrary to that thought the whistle announced the beginning of the 100 meter dash, which he was participating in.
