............Hm?
...It's morning already.
I'm still not used to the soft bed in Yuzuki-sensei's house yet...
When I slowly open my eyes...
Nei-san's beautiful face is in front of me.
「...Good morning. Yo-chan」
Nei-san's staring at me with a serious face.
Nei-san and I are at least 30 cm away from each other.
Nei-san who's lying down isn't wearing her contacts...
I'm looking at Nei-san's dark brown eyes.
This is the true color of Nei-san's eyes...
...Err
Last night, what happened?...
After eating dinner at a family restaurant, we returned to the mansion in Katsuko-nee's car...
When I finished taking a shower, Nei-san in her pajamas held a pillow...
Then we slept
Holding hands
We didn't have sex...
I just held Nei-san's right hand with my left...
「...Good morning」
I greeted Nei-san.
Nei-san kept looking at my face.
「Uhm...Could it be that you weren't able to sleep?」
Nei-san's eyes are quite open so I'm a bit worried.
She couldn't sleep because we're in the same bed...?
「...I slept well. It's been a while since I slept peacefully. That's why I woke up earlier than usual」
「Then...What are you doing?」
「...Looking at Yo-chan's sleeping face」
...Err
「...Is it interesting to watch me sleeping?」
「Of course! I found out something amazing!」
Nei-san answered strongly.
「For example...Yo-chan doesn't roll over when sleeping!」
「...What?」
「You did't notice it? Yo-chan had the same posture since you slept last night. I've been watching for an hour long but you don't even move an inch. It's not a level of having a good sleeping posture! You should be moving around usually...!」
...Nei-san
...What kind of research is that?
「You see...I usually sleep on the sofa in the living room」
「...Yeah」
「I would fall on the floor if I move on our sofa. Maybe that's why?」
I think that this perhaps has become a hobby.
That was my life for two months since the graduation from middle school.
「...Oh, I see」
Nei-san nodded.
「Hey...Yo-chan. Yo-chan's living. You're here aren't you」
She said something strange suddenly...
「Eh...What? I'm here」
「...I'm glad」
Nei-san pats my face with her left hand.
「Yup...You're here. You're living. So warm」
Nei-san mutters while feeling my temperature.
「Living is amazing...!」
「...Eh」
「I...didn't dream of Kei-chan yesterday. It's the first time since Kei-chan died...」
...Nei-san.
「Are dead people jealous of living people? Of course, the dead can't do anything right?...They're no match to the living...」
Nei-san's gripping my nose while saying.
...Fuga, fuga, fugagaga!
「N-Nei-han, I canf bweaf...I'm dying!」
My voice got strange when Nei-san pinched my nose.
「Ah...Sorry, sorry」
Nei-san takes her finger away.
She laughed like a mischievous child...
As expected, Nei-san's smile is the best.
