We slept in the guest room.
Three people in a small room. The family, sleeping shoulder to shoulder like the 川 character.
... And, Aisha's body is already that of an adult.
The bed is small, it can't fit three adults side by side.
So we left the bed to Zenith, Aisha and I slept on the floor.
We made a makeshift bed out of blankets and cushions we borrowed from Cliff.
Because there's carpet on the floor, it isn't exactly camping out.
It's time to go to sleep.
Then, I noticed Aisha looking at me.
"Ehehe, Oniichan, I wonder if Sylphy-ane would be jealous..."
"Well, during this journey, it was fine right."
"Yeah, but somehow, ehehe..."
Aisha laughed and huddled next to me.
She has a cute smile.
If it were Sylphy, I would already be past my limit.
Sylphy, too, would have...
But I don't feel that way about Aisha, and she doesn't particularly draw close to me too.
I like Aisha, but it's a familial love.
But, it's fine without physical contact.
It's a strange feeling.
She's still cute...
"I have an abrupt question, you, about what Lilia said, what do you think now?"
"Okaasan has said a lot of things?"
"To be a maid, and work for me, stuff like that."
When I asked that, Aisha had a blank look.
Then, she put her hand on her chin and had a look like she was thinking intently.
"Hmm, it's not disagreeable... but, perhaps, for Sylphy-ane, it's different. Something like this... I wonder if it's selfish..."
"No, I understand. It's different."
It was a fuzzy conversation, but something clicked.
It felt alright.
"Nfufu, well it's a given, that Oniichan is loved."
While saying that, Aisha curled next to me and pressed against my body.
Warm and soft.
A good holding pillow.
"... Someday, when you find someone you love, you can start a family of your own."
As I said that while enjoying my new pillow, Aisha suddenly sat up.
She seems to have taken my comment seriously.
"So. Have you given it any thought?"
"What kind of person would that be I wonder..."
Aisha's lover.
It's hard to imagine.
An excellent-type, or an unreliable-type.
Aisha can choose who she wants,but I don't like the idea of arranging a match.
Aisha normally hangs out with a certain crowd.
The mercenaries... there are a lot from the Beast race.
Would one of those guys fall for Aisha?
My little sister isn't a bone for some dog to chase after!
If I ask Orsted, he should be able to tell me about the type of guy that Aisha marries...
Now now, let's just forget about that.
If I heard something like she's single for the rest of her life, it would be pitiable.
Oh, that's right.
I need to confirm something before going to sleep.
"Aisha, tomorrow, when I bring Zenith to her parents' house... what do you want to do?"
"......"
Aisha inched away from my arm.
But returned.
"I will go. Okaasan, because she asked me to earnestly."
"I see..."
"Yeah."
