I Was Just an Only Child Boy, Now I Became One of a Four Quadruplet Sisters - CH 7

My sisters have been making up for the loss time. Ever since we got accepted they have all been playing non-stop. Literally everyday they would turn up muddy from playing. Our parents looked at us with troubled faces but come next year we’ll have much less play time because of the lessons. So it doesn’t look like they will criticism us.

Playing until you get all muddy they don’t look like their from distinguished family. . . . . They just look like normal little girls.

It’s been three months and the graduation ceremony for kindergarten is quickly approaching. Recently the atmosphere around the bear club is really bad.

The reason for that is us leaving school.

This kindergarten is public, so everyone is supposed to go to the same elementary school which is close by. But we are different. We are going to an entirely different place.

The thought about losing your friends that you just made is unbearable.

That was the thought going around.

However it’s impossible to refuse to leave though.The enrollment fee to Shirayuki has already been paid and can’t refuse after taking the exam.

The adults explained that but the mood didn’t improve.

There is nothing I could do.

My sisters and I do recognize the source so we don’t often bring it up.

The strained atmosphere continued until finally the day before the graduation ceremony came. On that day after the 4 of us decided to not hold back.To talk to our classmates and play.

“I wonder if you’ll play with everyone again?”

“Even if you go to a different school, are we going to still be able to play?”

I had to harden myself when I heard those words.

Apparently it seems that our classmates think that if we don’t go to the same school, we already can’t play anymore.

Certainly with more studies next year there will be less time to play. But if we ask our parents they are nice enough to allow us to play.

As soon as I noticed my sisters were gazing as me all together. It seems like they are waiting for my judgement.I am often shaken when this happens. It’s nice to be counted on, but in this way my older sisters are depending on me and it could leave to separation in the future difficult.

“Of course we can play again.”

“I-is that true!?”

“Wooo!!”

I smiled with a bitter smile.Our classmates smiled at us and brought out a joyed voice.

After that I decided to spend my last recess time with the classmates and cheer them up.

It seems that our playtime isn’t going different from usual. We are playing tag today.

“Hey Yuu-chan! Do you remember the first day we met and we played tag?”

While I was stretching to prepare my body a girl called out to me. It was the girl who got me to let loose and play tag.

“Ahh. I remember.”

“Is that so?. . .Do you remember when you were it?”

“Of course I do.”

There is no way I could forget the day I played with this child.

When I nodded the girl had a bright smile.

That smile is so shiny, I remember. . . . . I have a bad feeling about this.

“Don’t tell me you are going to make me IT again?”

“No.It’s a bit different. You have always find me ! This time it’s only 1 person not IT!”

“. . . . Eh?”

“Today will be the opposite of that day! Everyone!Yuu-chan will run away, Let’s chase her!”

“””Oooh!!”””

“No,. . . .Eh? Ha!?”

10,9, 8,. . . . Everyone began counting numbers.

This child will be a big thing in the future!!

Although I fled with full power, I could not escape from the myriad of ITs chasing me. I was caught in about five minutes. On the contrary though it was a good fight, because I managed five minutes in a disadvantageous situation.

After that we played tag as usual, with normal rules. Then our final recess came to an end.

The next day we had the graduation ceremony and we finally left kindergarten.

My sisters and classmates said goodbye with tears in their eyes.

Even though it was only one year they were shedding tears in our parting.Oneyear for a child is so important , the thought of that echoed some feeling in my rotted heart.

I don’t know what that is. It doesn’t feel like a bad thing though.

My second time through kindergarten was really fun. . .
