《》Chapter 17

Rantaro was waiting.

He had already rang the doorbell twice. His sisters were probably shouting at each other to open the door. The last time Rantaro called them, they were planning to have a nail polish day.

Since it was usually Rantaro doing that, ever since he left for Hope's Peak they were stuck doing it themselves.

Chuckling at the thought Rantaro rang the bell one more time.

Soon the door was opened by a wavy green haired girl wearing very much her usual goth clothes, Rantaro's 2nd oldest sister.

"Did you forget to bring your own keys?" said the girl with a frown on her face.

Laughing a bit Rantaro answered "I missed you too Amane." and hugged his sister "aslo I lost my keys. Again."

Amane hugged back. She did miss her big brother, she was just shy to show it openly "Seriously, I still wonder how do you keep losing everything you touch brother. Come on in."

As soon as Rantaro got in the house he was jumped on by his 4 little sisters which weren't older than 6. Since they were so young, they saw Rantaro as more of a father figure than a brother. Hugging them back tightly "I missed my sisters soo much!" said Rantaro ruffling his 4th youngest sisters hair.

While "We missed you too!" and "You should visit us more!"'s were being said, Rantaro heard the outside door opening. He looked up to see his oldest little sister, Yuri. She was dressed in her usual school uniform, a pink skirt paired with a white button up and a pink ribbon around her neck. She putted down a bag of groceries and turned to his brother.

"Seriously! You are always late! You were supposed to be at home wayy before I arrived. You better make some delicious desserts or I am not forgiving you!" said Yuri with a pout on her face.

"Okay, Okay I will." said Rantaro getting up from the floor to give her a hug too. "You know I dislike cars so it took time to get here on my bike."

"Yeah yeah." said Yuri and then gave a big gasp "Brother! You totally ruined my nails! They were just about to dry too."

"Don't worry I'll re-do that for you. Just wait for me in the living room okay? I'll unpack the cookies I brought."

"Hell Yeahh! you are the best brother!" said Yuri then turned to Amane "Come with me sis!"

Rantaro was now left alone with his little 'little' sisters. After giving them a few extra candies, The Ultimate Adventurer was on his way to kitchen with a plastic box full of cookies.

Rantaro was glad he decided to ditch the school for his sisters. He was always worried about them feeling lonely or neglected. He knew the 2 oldest sisters of his would take care of the others well, but that didn't change the fact Yuri was only a 8th grader and Amane was a 7th grader.

Rantaro didn't want to make them feel pressured under responsibility. He was even planning to hire few people to manage the house but Yuri and Amane were both against it saying "We don't want them to feel like a burden", "How are we supposed to trust an outsider with our precious sisters." or "It's because brother took care of us that we can keep being a whole as a family. So we will do the same for our little sisters."

Rantaro had nothing to say on that. He still made sure to be at home when it was their exam week and visiting frequently. He was glad he could be of help to his sisters in any kind of way.

Pouring milk into 7 glass cups Rantaro placed the cookies on a plate and went to the living room.

Yuri was watching a tv drama while Amane was playing a board game with others. Rantaro placed the tray on his hands to the coffee table taking a cup of milk to drink it himself.

Sitting next to Yuri he asked "You already started a new drama? That was fast."

"Well I got too bored. But this drama isn't half bad!"

"Really? tell me about it."

Yuri, a total Korean drama junkie, started to explain excitedly to her brother " So there is an app called love alarm and it beeps when there is someone who loves you in 10 meter radius..." Yuri kept explaining as she ate her cookies "... and now the female lead can't choose between the two! Seriously what is she even thinking! She should obviously go back to her old lover and apologize for cheating!"

"Well that girl sure is a toxic one to cheat on a guy who actually loved her. Not just interested because she didn't beep."

"Right!! Well my every other friend says she should end up with the rich guy. Just how more boring can they get!? Since she certainly isn't going back to her old lover, she should either choose the rich's servant or both."

"Both? Really?" said Rantaro grimacing.

"Of course! if you can't choose then just don't! Also that's like the only non-boring way."

Rantaro couldn't help but to think of his own situation when Yuri said that. Both huh. That didn't sound bad when Yuri said it like that. After all it was hard to choose between two people you loved so why not both? Maybe that's how Kokichi was thinking too...Maybe Rantaro really should give it a go.

He was pulled out of his daze by his little sister pulling his hand, asking if he could join them on the board game. Rantaro similed and did so.

He was going to talk with Shuichi tomorrow but today, it was family time.

Re-doing his sisters nails, Rantaro didn't know that Shuichi had came to the same conclusion with him.
