Chapter 102: Chapter 101: Kotori’s Closet

“Alright, we’ll need to take some quick measurements, so we can go buy you some panties and a bra. I’ll be right back.”

Heading downstairs into the living room, I catch Mama’s attention and wave her over to me. She gets up and comes over. “Mama, we need to take Honoka’s measurements like we did for me. Her bras and panties don’t fit anymore, so we need to get her some temporary ones.”

She shakes her head. “No need for that. Let me call Kotori and have her meet us at the shop. Am I to assume her changes are finished?”

I shrug. “I’m not 100% sure, but they should be since Chinatsu’s were rather quick as well. She’s also going to need a couple outfits. She lost some height and it looks as if her breasts lost at least 6 to 8 centimeters and a couple of cup sizes. Her hips by the same amount, so everything simply hangs off of her. We might be able to salvage her skirts, but her dresses and blouses are lost causes.”

Mama shakes her head again. “No. There’s little point in trying. We’d be better off starting over on her wardrobe. A lot of it was bought to match other things she can no longer wear. Let me call Kotori and I’ll get one of my dresses for her to wear to the shop since nothing you girls have will come close to fitting her. She’ll simply have to go commando until then.”

I follow Mama to their room and she calls Kotori to arrange for her to meet us at her shop. She then finds a knee length one-piece for Honoka to wear and hands it to me.

“I’ll get dressed and call the driver. Get everyone else dressed and meet me down here when you’re ready.”

I nod and say, “Okay, thank you Mama.”

Heading upstairs, I enter Honoka’s room and hand her the dress. “Put this on. Sorry, but you’ll have to go without lingerie for the moment. Mama's taking us to Kotori’s shop to get you measured, buy you some lingerie and a couple of outfits. I’m going to make sure Sofi is ready too. I’ll be back soon.”

Knocking on Sofi’s door, I hear her say, “Come in.” Opening the door I find her in the middle of changing, so she’s in her panties, bra, and stockings, which makes me think, ‘She truly is adorable’ and I have a sudden urge to cuddle with her… What’s with me lately? I shake my head to clear away the thought.

You might have noticed that she never asked who it is. That’s because Dad never comes upstairs unless he absolutely has no choice. Normally, when he needs one of us he sends Chiaki or one of us girls to get them, so we don’t worry about it. Mama would have been included in that, but with her being pregnant she tries to limit climbing stairs as a safety measure.

“What’s up Sora-nee?”

“Nothing much, but you need to get dressed again. We have to go shopping for Nee-chan.”

“Okay, but isn’t it a little late for that?”

I shrug as I tell her, “Yes and no. Mama knows a shop owner near here, so she’s calling her to have her open her shop for us.”

“You folks live in a totally different world than I did.”

“You live in this world now too, so you’ll have to adjust your way of thinking. Lil’ sis?”

“Yes?”

“I don’t see a way to say this other than being blunt. You’re a beautiful girl so you’ll have a lot of boys chasing after you, but you’re also Daddy’s daughter and people might try to use their son to get close to you in the hope of getting into his good graces that way. Unfortunately, it happens all the time in this world. That’s one of the reasons I was pushing you and Nee-chan to allow me to find boyfriends for you. Even if you do have boyfriends, it doesn’t mean that boys won't approach you and Nee-chan.”

“Alright, I’ll keep that in mind.”

I smile at her. “Don’t worry about it too much since it’s not like I’d ever let some boy bother my lil’ sis.” She grins at me. “Okay, well, get dressed and come over to Honoka’s room when your ready.”

She nods and says, “Sora-nee?”

“Yes?”

She nervously asks, “Is it alright if I hug you?”

I don’t know exactly why, but I’m fairly sure this isn’t a good idea. However, I smile and tell her, “Of course it is.”

She steps close to me and I slip my arms around her as she does me. Holding me close and burying her face against my neck as I softly stroke her hair, she quietly says, “I love you Sora-nee.”

I murmur, “I love you too Sofi.”

A minute later, she kisses my neck, releases me and steps back to say, “Thank you. I needed that.”

“You never need to thank me for something like that. You’re family.”

“That’s why I’m thanking you. I finally have one for the first time in my life.”

“I’m happy you’re my little sister too, but you need to get dressed because we need to leave soon.”

She nods and steps over to open her closet as I head back over to Honoka.

Back in Honoka’s room, she has her back to me as she is getting dressed and it hits me how long her hair is now. Look, I normally would have noticed it sooner, but lately I’ve had a lot on my plate with Chinatsu and Ryo, my boyfriend - I mean, our boyfriend now - work and sundry other items I deal with. Now it goes down to her lower back and I have to say it looks damn good on her.

Walking over to her, I help her situate her dress, move her hair out of the way and zip it up for her. She looks over her shoulder and smiles at me in thanks.

When she turns around, I notice how perky her boobs are now and say, “Damn Nee-chan, you almost don’t need a bra now,” which makes her grin as she lifts and drops her boobs.

Smiling even bigger, she says, “I haven’t had boobs like these since I was 12. Frankly, I’m happy to be rid of those monsters.”

Chinatsu and I chuckle and I say, “I can imagine. Mayumi complains about her boobs too and she is smaller than you were. Of course, she can’t say that anymore… Not that it makes a huge amount of difference, but you look much more like a 14 year old now. I know…”

I trail off as Sofi knocks and comes in. Turning to look, I say, “Okay, I suppose we are ready to leave then. Come on ladies.” Taking Chinatsu’s hand I lead us downstairs to meet Mama. We meet Mama at the foot of the stairs. After we put on our shoes she leads us out to the car. As is normal, Mr. Okami is holding the door for us, but then I notice the other car a few meters back from ours.

I grab Mama’s arm and ask, “Are they here for us too?”

She nods. “Your father insisted we have extra security since we are all together.”

“Dad might be going a little overboard. We have Sofi, Nee-chan, and Chiaki with us, not to mention the people on backup for each of us and the heavy weapons teams on top of that.”

“Young lady, it wasn’t that long ago that you had all of those around you and they still tried to kidnap you. Imagine what could happen since they have the opportunity to take all of us at the same time? Your father isn’t willing to take that risk.”

After we enter the car and we head off to Kotori’s, I say, “I suppose I can see that, but if they only know about me why is he worried about the rest of you being kidnapped?”

“Sora… Sweetheart, your father and I know all too well how you think. If Chinatsu or I was kidnapped and they demanded that you turn yourself over to them to free us, you’d do it in a heartbeat.”

“Of course I would! I love my family!”

“That’s exactly why he added the extra security.”

Honoka leans forward to join the conversation, “Mom, you are going to have to be far more direct with her. She doesn’t see how important she is.”

Mama sighs and looks at me again. “Sora, your sister is right, you are too important to risk. There are maybe 4 or 5 people in the world at the level of genius we believe you to be.” She leans forward and taps my forehead. “That right there could very well find solutions to the many problems the world is facing.”

“Mama, I’m not all that special. Merely a stupid boy who drank some nanites and turned into a pretty girl. I will admit that I’m smart, but in the top 10 of geniuses? I think not.”

Honoka asks, “Sora, who taught you about genetic engineering, biotechnology, nanotechnology or any of the other subjects you can not only talk about in-depth, but probably teach?”

I shrug. “You know very well no one taught me about the subjects. Like any other person with interests, I read up on them.”

“Exactly. No one ever taught you anything about them. How many 2nd years do you believe could grasp more than the basics of the subjects you know so much about?”

Chinatsu says, “I understand a little more than the basics, but I have Sora to explain it all to me. Most of them don’t have her, so probably a millionth of a percent, if that much.”

Mama leans forward again and takes my hand while looking intently into my eyes. “Sora, I realize you don’t see it, but you are so important to so many people. First among them is your family. Your father told you the other day. You have so much potential and we want to see you reach it and even go beyond that. For that to ever happen you have to stay safe. Okay, last try here and then we’re dropping the subject. Sweetheart, if something happened to you, what do you think it would do to the rest of us?”

“Airi and I talked about this when I woke up in the hospital after the attack on the house. I know it would devastate Chinatsu and at the very least, the rest of you would blame yourselves.”

Mama nods. “Precisely, and that’s why you have to protect yourself. Keep that in mind before you do something reckless.” She leans back in her seat and closes her eyes.

I lean back in my seat as well and Chinatsu snuggles closer to me. She then whispers, “Mama’s right, you have to take care of yourself. If anything ever happened to you I’d kill myself. You’ve said it many times, we don’t exist without each other.”

My eyes widen as I turn to look at her. She smiles at me, but I can tell she’s serious about it. Kissing her cheek, I firmly whisper back, “I promise.”

She nods at me and says, “Good” and rests her head against my shoulder. We spend the rest of the ride in silence.

Mr. Okami parks directly in front of the store and comes around to open the door for us. We get out, go to the door and Mama knocks on it.

A few moments later Kotori opens it and says, “Hi Haruka. You’d best be glad we’re friends because I wouldn’t do this for just anyone.”

“I know, and I appreciate it more than you know, but this is an emergency.”

“I assumed as much. Well, don’t just stand there, come on in.”

Once we’re all inside, she shuts and locks the door.

When Kotori turns around, Mama tells her, “Kotori, you already know Chinatsu and Sora.” She moves over to Honoka and places her hand on her shoulder. “I’d like to introduce Honoka, Sora’s actual older sister, it took us a bit of time to track her down so we could adopt her as well.” She then touches Sofi’s shoulder, “and this little one is Sofi, we adopted her a short time ago. Honoka, Sofi, this is my friend Kotori.”

They both say, “Pleased to meet you Kotori.”

“Pleased to meet you girls… Haruka, I know you didn’t call me to come in simply to introduce your other daughters.”

Mama laughs. “No, you’re right. You wouldn’t believe what they had her dressed in when they turned her over to us. Can you believe they didn’t even provide her with a bra and panties?”

Kotori snorts and shakes her head. “Oh, I’d believe about anything when it comes to the government.” She looks at Honoka. “Come on Honoka, let’s get you measured. Then you can pick out some things to wear.”

She takes her back to the dressing room. They come out a few minutes later and Kotori is shaking her head.

Once they get to us Kotori says, “14 years old and built better than I am.” She hands Mama a slip of paper.

Mama reads it out loud, “Bust 84, waist 56, hips 90 and you’re a C cup. You’re almost as big as I am. Honoka we’re going to have to hire a bodyguard to follow you around to keep the boys off of you.” Everyone chuckles. “Well, you know your measurements, so pick out what you want and bring them to the register. I’m going to sit down and talk to Kotori, my feet are killing me.”

Honoka nods and says, “Okay Mom.” She turns to look at me and asks, “Sora, would you mind helping me pick out a few things?”

I smile and say, “Not at all Nee-chan.”

I’ll spare you the full details of this. We ended up getting her 7 silk bra and panty sets, several sets of stockings, 5 mini dresses, 5 blouses and 5 mini skirts to go with them. We assume that will be enough to wear until we can take her shopping for everything she needs. After we check out, we head home.

At home, Chinatsu and I retreat to our room, lock the door and undress. In bed, we kiss each other and say, “Good night.” After she cuddles up to me, I doubt it took more than 30 seconds before the both of us fell asleep.
