Chapter 1

Touma-kun Peaceful Daily Life

Translated by AmaLynne

 

Beep-beep! Beep-beep! the sound of my alarm…

 

I stop it and wake up.

 

「Whew…I slept well. Yeah, today is going to be a good day.」

 

Today is a Saturday in mid-May, when I’m a sophomore in high school and getting used to my new life.

 

Of course, the school was off, but I had set my alarm for 7:00 AM.

 

Because today, the long-awaited new edition of the novel will be released at the bookstore, which opens at 10:00 a.m.

 

For this reason, it would be courteous to get enough sleep and be in perfect condition.

 

That’s why I put up with staying up late last night…!

 

If truth be told, I wanted to play some online games or read my accumulated online novels…!

 

But as a fan of the writer, I can’t!

 

I’d like to read it with a proper schedule and in perfect condition.

 

「Okay…time is finite. Let’s get up and get ready.」

 

I left my room on the second floor and headed downstairs.

 

I went straight into the living room and found my younger sister, Marina, who is now in the second year of junior high school.

 

She’s getting taller and taller, maybe over 150 centimeters.

 

She is starting to look more and more like my mother and a little more girly.

 

Today, she wears her trademark long hair in a ponytail.

 

「Oh! My brother! What is it!? Usually, you stay up late and don’t get up at all!」

 

「You’re in high spirits this morning, aren’t you? I think we should greet each other first. Good morning, Marina.」

 

「Ah! Oh, right! Good morning, brother! So, what’s up?」

 

「Oh, nothing. Today is the release day of my new book.」

 

「…Oh, it’s that time of year already, it’s only every three months or so, so I forgot all about it.」

 

「Hey, hey, hey, it’s important to me, okay? You’re in the club, by the way?」

 

「Yeah, I am. Gotta go now. Brother, I’ve prepared breakfast there, so you can eat it. Okay, I’m off!」

 

「Okay, have a good day. Thanks for breakfast. This brother is lucky to have a sister.」

 

「Hehehe, I’m happy to have an older brother too! Well, I’ll be back around 3:00!」

 

The younger sister hurriedly ran out the front door.

 

「She’s a restless one, even though she’s already 14 years old. But she’s a good sister. You’ve grown up to be a good girl even though you don’t have a mother…」

 

I don’t have a mother.

The reason is quite simple.

She was born weak and died at the young age of 38.

I was 12 and my sister was 9.

Since then, my sister has been taking care of the house.

Of course, I also help her.

It was a normal thing for me to do since I was little because my mother was frail.

Even though I am a child who loves to spend time on my own, I can’t help but devote time to this.

I have to do what my mom tells me to do…

 

My father, who will turn 45 this year, works as an office worker.

His annual income is fairly high, but he is in a middle management position, so he seems to be working very hard.

He is being poked and prodded from above and below, and he seems to be very tired.

He wakes up early in the morning and works on his day off.

Because of this, my sister and I try to do what we can by ourselves.

We are being supported, so it is only natural for us to do what we can.

 

「Well, for now, brush my teeth and eat my breakfast.」

 

I turn on the TV while brushing my teeth.

 

Oh? The weather is nice today, and my luck is good.

Yes, it’s going to be a really good day.

 

I finish brushing my teeth and gratefully accept the breakfast my sister has prepared for me.

 

「Phew, that was a treat. You’re getting better and better at this…the first time was terrible.」

 

Well, it can’t be helped…she was nine years old, after all.

I cook too, but it was hard at first.

It’s an example of how great a mother is.

 

I quickly washed the dishes and put them away.

After that, I sit down in front of the Buddhist altar in a Japanese-style room.

 

「Good morning, mother. Father is working hard for us today. My little sister is doing well, and she’s working hard in her club activities. She’s getting better and better at cooking, which is a big change from the first time. I’m…well, I’m the same as usual. I’m playing games and read my novels. Don’t worry, I’m doing what I need to do. I’ve been following my mother’s instructions to the letter. So, please don’t worry. I miss mother, but my family and I are living happily.」

 

I finished my daily routine of reporting to my mother.

I checked the clock and found that it was eight o’clock.

 

「Okay, do the laundry first…and go for a walk while I’m at it.」

 

I made it quick and went out for my daily walking routine.

 

Hmm? You thought I might be an indoor nerd. You would think so.

But indoor activities are more physically demanding than you might think.

Your posture becomes bad, your shoulders stiffen, and your eyes get worse.

If you do it all the time, you can get a headache and gain weight.

To have a healthy indoor, you need a healthy body!

This is my theory.

 

Then I walked for about 40 minutes and came back home. 

Then I take out the laundry and hang it up to dry.

 

「Well, that’s all right. The time is…9:20. Let’s go out sweating.」

 

I took a quick shower and changed my clothes.

Then I left my house 15 minutes before 10:00 a.m.

 

My favorite bookstore was about 10 minutes away by bicycle from here.

I pedaled my bicycle nimbly and felt the breeze as I basked in the sunny weather.

 

Well, I slept well, the weather was nice, and I had good luck.

Best of all, today is the long-awaited release day, and it’s going to be a good day.

 

But I had no way of knowing at the time…that something like that would happen.
