The weekend arrives, bringing with it an air of spontaneity and togetherness. Futaro is greeted by the familiar chaos of the Nakano household, each sister bubbling with excitement over their individual plans. Yet, the underlying tension of jealousy lingers in the air, like an uninvited guest at a family gathering.
“Alright, everyone! Let’s brainstorm ideas for our weekend together!” Ichika announces, clapping her hands to gather attention.
“Can we do a movie marathon?” Yotsuba suggests eagerly. “I’ll bring the snacks!”
“Or we could go on a picnic!” Nino interjects, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “I can make my famous onigiri!”
“I like the idea of the picnic,” Miku adds, glancing at Futaro. “It would be nice to spend time outside and enjoy the fresh air.”
Itsuki, feeling competitive, raises an eyebrow. “What if we combine both ideas? A picnic with a movie marathon afterward!”
The sisters begin to argue playfully over the logistics, each trying to outdo the other with creative ideas. Futaro watches with a smile, feeling a warm sense of belonging. The way they interact fills him with joy, despite the subtle competition that simmers beneath the surface.

An Afternoon Under the Sun
The picnic is set in a beautiful park, the sun shining brightly overhead. Futaro lays out the blanket, and the sisters begin unpacking the various dishes they prepared. Ichika’s homemade sandwiches, Nino’s onigiri, Miku’s delicious pastries, Yotsuba’s fruit salad, and Itsuki’s carefully prepared tea—all of it a feast fit for a king.
As they settle down, the atmosphere is filled with laughter and chatter, the earlier tensions dissolving into the joy of togetherness. “Futaro, try my onigiri!” Nino insists, nudging a piece toward him. “I promise they’re the best!”
“Don’t forget to try my pastries, too!” Miku interjects, her competitive spirit shining through.
Yotsuba giggles, reaching over to grab a fruit slice. “You’re all amazing, but we all know I’m the best cook here!”
Futaro laughs, feeling the warmth of their camaraderie wrap around him like a comforting blanket. As he enjoys each dish, he looks around at the sisters, appreciating the unique flavors they bring to his life.
“Seriously, I’m so lucky to have all of you,” he says, a smile spreading across his face. “You each make my life so much brighter.”
The girls pause, their teasing and banter momentarily forgotten. They all beam at him, their hearts swelling with affection. “We’re lucky to have you too, Futaro,” Ichika says softly, her eyes shimmering with sincerity.

A Moment of Connection
After the picnic, they settle down on the blanket, the warm sun casting a golden glow around them. The atmosphere shifts as they relax, and the sisters start sharing stories from their childhood, laughter filling the air as they reminisce about silly moments and shared experiences.
Futaro leans back, listening intently, but he notices the occasional glance exchanged between the sisters. A hint of jealousy flares up as they remember moments where one sister outshone the others, but it quickly dissolves into laughter again.
As the sun begins to set, casting vibrant hues of orange and pink across the sky, Futaro pulls out his phone to capture the moment. “Let’s take a picture!” he suggests, and the sisters quickly gather around him, posing with wide smiles.
Just as he snaps the photo, a playful moment unfolds—Yotsuba suddenly shoves a piece of fruit into Ichika’s mouth, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
“What was that for?” Ichika squeals, her cheeks full, and the playful banter erupts again, lightening the mood.
Futaro smiles, feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude for these girls in his life.

Returning Home: A Heartfelt Confession
As the sun dips below the horizon, they pack up their things and make their way back home. The laughter and chatter continue, but as they enter the house, Futaro feels the weight of each sister's emotions return. He knows that despite their fun-filled day, the undercurrent of jealousy still lingers in the air.
That night, as they all settle into the living room, he gathers the sisters around. “Hey, can we talk for a minute?” he says, his tone serious yet warm.
The girls look at him, their expressions shifting to curiosity.
“I just wanted to say how grateful I am for each of you,” he begins, looking from one sister to the next. “I know this arrangement can be challenging, and I appreciate your understanding and patience.”
Nino crosses her arms, a hint of playful defiance in her eyes. “What are you getting at, Futaro?”
He chuckles softly, trying to lighten the mood. “What I mean is, I want you all to know that you are each special to me in your own ways. No one can replace the others in my heart. I promise to keep doing my best to balance my time with all of you.”
Ichika leans forward, her eyes glistening with emotion. “Thank you for saying that. Sometimes it’s easy to forget.”
“I know it can be tough,” Miku adds softly. “But it helps to hear you say it.”
Itsuki nods, her expression thoughtful. “We’re all learning together, and I think that’s what matters most.”
Yotsuba smiles brightly, her infectious energy returning. “We’re a team! Let’s support each other!”
Futaro beams at the sisters, feeling the warmth of their bond strengthening. “Exactly! We’re in this together.”
As they share this heartfelt moment, the lingering jealousy begins to fade, replaced by understanding and love. Each sister feels a renewed sense of belonging, knowing they are loved for who they are, and their hearts brim with hope for the future they share with Futaro.

As the evening unfolds, they settle back into the familiar rhythm of their lives together. The competitive spirits fade, and the bond of sisterhood shines brightly, reflecting in their laughter and playful banter.
In this world of intertwining feelings, jealousy and love dance hand in hand, but together they forge a beautiful tapestry of connection that only grows stronger with each passing day. And Futaro, standing at the center of it all, feels truly blessed to be loved by all five Nakano sisters, each a vibrant thread in the fabric of his heart.
