Merry Christmas.

After putting our bags in the room, we grabbed lunch at the hotel and then headed out to do some shopping.

“…… Amazing!　It’s huge!　It’s so big!”

　JK’s older sister, the dark-haired Nanako, was amazed at the sight before her.

　We’re in a huge shopping mall right in front of Karuizawa station, next to the Kid Prince Hotel.

“It looks like they sell not only clothes, but also shoes, accessories, and other things.

　Akari, the blonde-haired gal who is the younger sister of the JK, unfolded a pamphlet and gazed at it admiringly.

” Young lady, are you okay?　I thought you didn’t like crowds.”

　My friend from university, Niekawa said with concern to the white-haired girl next to her.

“Thank you, Ichika. But don’t worry about it. You’re not a bodyguard or anything, you’re just one of the people who came to play with us.”

　The white hair and red eyes of Rushia Kaida , a novelist.

　In addition to the crowds, there was the heat.

　Rushia isn’t a very strong person, so I have to take care of her.

“Hey, hey!　Okarin!　Where do you want to start looking around?”

　Akari grabbed my arm and said with a smile.

Funi, I felt Akari’s chest against my arm.

　She had unbuttoned two buttons, and the top of her breasts were completely visible.

　Her breasts, moist and wet with sweat, sucked tightly against my arm, giving me a pleasant sensation.

“Akari.

“Oops~♡ Okarin, are you melted by the feel of Akari-chan’s big raw breasts?”

“You’ll be seen, so button it up tight. You’re a lady now, remember”

“Oh, yes.”

Isuisu, Akari closes the button.

“…… Yes, that’s right. I have to tie it up.”

Nanako also buttoned up.

“D-Don’t do it, both of you. You should never expose too much skin when you’re young.”

“Ichika. You too”

Rushia says in disgust as she closes the button on Niekawa.

“Everyone should take a lesson from Rushia.”

　She wears a hat and a light cardigan to protect herself from the sun, and she also keeps her buttons tightly closed.

“””Yesss……”””

” Okaya is an adult after all. As expected”

“Is that so?　Well, let’s go.”

「「「「 Oh! 」」」」

　The five of us paraded through the mall together.

　There is a roof over the head, so Rushia will be safe from the sun.

　There are many stores lined up along the side of the road.

　Because it was summer vacation, there were quite a lot of people …….

“Hey, Okaerin, why are there so many people in black?”

“Really?”

　I look around me.

　I think it’s …… where a lot of black-clad sunglasses stand out among the general public.

“I-Ichika, what is this all about?”

“………Perhaps Kogen-sama has also rented out the shopping mall.”

“…… Grandfather. Mou”

“……Saburo and his staff and my family are playing the role of Sakura, so I don’t think they’ll find out.”

Rushia and Niekawa are secretly talking about something.

　The two have known each other for a long time and are quite close.

“…… Waa!　It’s a cute outfit!”

” Oh, that’s a pretty good selection of sandals!”

　The twins’ eyes sparkled.

　The young ones are interested in fashion.

　However, Akari has a part-time job, and Nanako stays at home and does not go out to shop much.

　…… No, I think they’re being reserved.

　Even though the girls and I have a casual relationship, we are still strangers. Therefore, they can’t help but be reserved.

　I think Akari, in particular, is too cautious to vent her own desires.

　I think that’s not good.

　Children are allowed to be more selfish.

“Akari, Nanako. If there’s something you want, just tell me and I’ll buy it.”

“”Eh……?””

　They both look at each other.

“O-Okarin …… is fine, I’ll buy what I want.”

“……That’s right. Just being allowed to live here is enough for me. ……”

　Yeah, I knew she cared.

　I shook my head.

“Listen, we’re on vacation. It’s a good opportunity to buy a souvenir.”

“”But ……””

“Don’t worry about the money. I’ll buy you whatever you want. Don’t hesitate to tell me what you want. …… Or rather, if you do, I’ll mind.”

　Is it unfair to say it this way?

　But …….

“I see. Yes …… Sorry, Okarin.”

　Akari seems to have figured it out right away and lightly lowers her head with a wry smile.

“Sister!　Let’s take advantage of his generosity!”

“……Eeh, but…”

“Just do it, just do it!　It’s the perfect time to be spoiled! What’s ~ that ~?　It’s a present from your boyfriend.

“……!　No, that’s ……!”

“Right~!”

　Akari looks at me and smiles.

　She then bows her head.

“Thanks, Okarin!　Without being reserverd!”

“Thanks you……, Sensei!”

　The two of them laugh innocently.

　That’s right, that’s it. Children should just be selfish and not worry about the adults.

“If there’s anything you want, Rushia or Niekawa, let me know”

“”EEH?!””

　Both of them look at me and roll their eyes.

“O-Okaya ……, That is indeed a bit …….”

“That’s right, Okaya-kun. And are you sure about the money……?”

“Yeah, I’ve got my whole June bonus left over.”

　It would be bad to buy something just for these kids.

“I want to thank Rushia for providing us with the villa. Also, I haven’t been able to give anything to Niekawa. You’ ve been taking care of me since college.”

“Okaya……” “Okaya-kun……”

　The two of them moistened their eyes.

“Mu~……”

“?　What’s wrong, Akari?”

　Behind us, Akari is thinking about something.

“It’s not fair…”

“…… Not fair?”

　Nanako, her sister, tilted her head.

“It’s just Okarin being sly. …… Look, it’s just Okarin who’s always making our hearts so happy and playing with them.”

“…… What’s so sneaky about that?”

” Sometimes I also want to make Okarin happy and surprise him. …… Ah! Nishishi, sis, sis.

“?”

　When I turned around, I saw Akari whispering something to Nanako.

“So I’m going to take …… and give it to Okarin …….”

“!　That’s …… the best!”

“Right!　♡ Akari-chan may be a genius.”

“……. You’re a genius, Akari!”

“Yeah, I know, right?　You know me, sister!”

　Nanako pats Akari on the head.

The younger sister laughs happily, hugging her sister’s body.

“What’s wrong, you two?”

“”Hmmm, nothing!　Hmmm, Fufu♡””

　They both laugh, somewhat mischievously.

　Akari is as usual, but Nanako was unusual.

“Alright, Okarin, everyone. We’re going to the shopping mall!”
