Juvenile Period: ¿Why do I have to explain it?

With my breath hitching I watched the cold breath coming out of my mouth as I began to calm my breathing.

-*ahg* How tired

Looking around I started to walk

- "This year will be different, my grandmother will be staying with us until the new year arrives, everything changes but I'm still worried."

-*Sigh* I haven't seen him yet....

Trembling from my shoulders I rub my hands very carefully

- "I worry about my nightmares, in this case one of those involved in my misfortunes my uncle, my father's older brother has not shown up."

-"The strangest thing is to be able to see Saeko's father at this age."

Stopping in front of a vending machine, I looked at the contents of the items.

- "It was mentioned that her father was never at home came back in Saeko's teenage years after she started to become more submissive."

Sipping the can of coffee I start to feel the heat on my face again.

- "Every day I feel like I'm at fault for something and I feel like apologizing but I still don't know why...."

-¡¡¡Niinii!!!

Turning to the direction of the cheerful voice I see my little sister Masaki smiling with a knitted bag in her hands, wearing a pink coat with a scarf folded in the shape of a heart, long black hair with a square fringe tied with a red ribbon.

-Always the early riser as always.

As you approach in front of me, you notice our similar heights.

-Maki-chan you shouldn't be up so early.

-But I like to run errands

Pointing to the bag that had a pack of tissues in it 

-So everyone is awake already?

I pursed my lips like a duck squashing my cheeks with my palms.

-They're still having dramas.

Masaki pressed his nose with his hand making a funny face.

-They are funny Niinii

When we laughed we stopped making funny faces.

...

Holding hands, we were in front of the door of our house.

-Maki-chan, do you want me to prepare breakfast?

-Don't worry, grandma already prepared it for us.

Opening the door was standing a girl with white hair and a smile.

-Welcome Masaki-chan, Kiri-sama.

Lowering her head, the girl bowed her body slightly.

-Saeko? why?

-We will spend Christmas with you.

Raising her head Saeko stopped bowing her body and put both hands against her cheek.

-So you want to...

-Kai-chan....

-Kyaaa

Appearing behind a surprised Saeko my grandmother was with her usual expressionless face, however her eyes were full of tears and she had a handkerchief in her hand wiping the left side of her face.

-Oba-sama, what's wrong?

-Spouses...must be happy...without...matter.... *sniff*

-Must...let them be....

Appearing next to my grandmother Kizuna's face was expressionless with her eyes watering with tears.

-Kizuna, I've already told you that these stories are too mature for your age.

-But...I have...12

-*sigh* You're 11 don't fool yourself.

Leaving my shoes at the entrance I went to Kizuna to hug her.

My grandmother took the opportunity to hug us at the same time.

-I'm... a... mature... woman...

-Of course, you are very mature, Kizuna.

-Kai-chan give us love....

Caressing the head of my grandmother and Kizuna I felt an uneasy look in my direction.

-ehh....k...k

-I brought the tissues

Masaki pulled out a pack of tissues from his bag and hugged me from the side.

-Now my turn

Paying my cheek against Masaki's she began to rub against me.

-ehh..e...h

-You can also come Saeko 

-Who told you? that this...

Hearing the short steps I felt Saeko's warm body hugging my waist.

-I wanted to...

Sticking her body slightly dropping her weight to cover her face in my back

-...do it...

- "You don't get to be Tsundere Saeko" I still don't bathe Saeko is better than....

-...I... *sniff*...not...*sniff*...you...*sniff*...anything...*sniff*

- "A new strange situation and again taking advantage of this" Saeko....

Unable to stop the women around me I felt Saeko's breath on my back.

-*sniff* I'm *sniff* reloading *sniff* allergies *sniff*

~*Grrrg*~

The women around me stopped looking at me confused at the sound of my stomach.

-Can we continue after breakfast? please?

~It's a promise~

- "How do they get in sync?"

.....

-It's already nighttime

-The day goes by fast when you're having fun Kiri-sama.

Looking at Saeko she was smiling as she removed another piece of the wooden tower without dropping it.

-Mom and Aunt Himejima will come after shopping.

-But daddy no....

Saeko looked down and held the piece of wood in her hands.

-Saeko how did you used to spend these days, you know we always go to my grandmother's village and I don't know what your family is doing

-We are having a little dinner, mommy and me.

- And by yourself?

-I don't think we have much to do, it's just the two of us, during the new year we only went to the temple once to watch the sunrise.

-It's just like any other day always?

- Yes, it is.

The tower is wobbling a little bit as the wooden piece of wood is being arranged.

-Daddy always has work and goes on a business trip, we wait for her until she comes back.

Clasping her hands together she looked a little uneasy at my comment.

-Kiri-sama...

-I'm listening

-May I ask you a question?

-You have the right to ask me whatever you want, I also asked you something.

-Then answer me....

Taking out a piece of wood from the tower, he staggered a little...

-Do you think my daddy doesn't love me?

Stopping my movements I turn to look into Saeko's eyes looking more and more uneasy.

-He's always out these days besides....

-Yes?

-He only sends me greetings on my birthday.

Touching my chin with my left hand I look into Saeko's eyes.

-I think I just annoyed my daddy but I want to know your opinion Kiri-sama.

-"How should I tell him this? Maybe he is a man who likes to work hard nothing has happened just like in the game" But why me?

- It's simple only between men they know how to express their affection.

Putting both my hands on the table I look directly into his eyes.

-"You have a good reasoning but, you should never answer to women, they get angry because they already have the answer, they are just looking for someone else's approval, that's why many couples end up in serious arguments or so I remember".

-Kiri-sama is everything alright?

Looking more restless Saeko starts to move her legs reflexively her expression starts to become more somber.

-Excuse me I get distracted very easily but the answer, it depends on each man Saeko.

-Ohh, how would I change?

-I don't know, my father liked to play with my hair doing strange hairstyles in the bathroom, and he also liked me to call him a rooster.

-*Pfss* That sounds strange

Letting out a giggle she quickly calmed down the movement of her feet relaxing her face.

-That's true, but everyone is different Saeko.

-You're right

Smiling he covered his mouth with both hands, averted his gaze as he tried to see me again.

-But that doesn't answer my question Kiri-sama.

-So, do you have another question?

-Yes 

Pulling out the wooden block again Saeko got up from her seat to stand next to me.

-Where do the babies come from?

Falling down the wooden tower, I statically held a piece of wood between my fingers.

-Saeko... it...

-There is a rumor that they are the parents who create the baby tell me Kiri-sama where do they come from?

Saeko bringing her face closer, I move my face a little bit away from my place.

-"Aunt Himejima, I need help, I don't know what to tell you right now".

...

Walking under the tori* my steps were slow going up a long staircase in the direction of the temple, I shake my blue coat while my icy breath came out through my nose and mouth.

-How cold

-Kai-kai happy new year

As I turn to see the blue-haired boy with a friendly smile come running up the stairs.

-Happy New Year, where is your family?

-They don't want to go upstairs, it's too much work to climb these stairs, they're too steep.

-Really?, my grandmother climbed up at the top very easily.

The blue-haired boy came to cling to my shoulder as we climbed the stairs.

-Everyone in your family is great, Kai-kai.

-You're so right

-By the way Kai-kai could you answer me a question?

-I'm listening

-Where do babies come from?

Looking at the blue-haired boy I was astonished with his question, I didn't stop my step even when I was looking at the boy.

-Where ....?

-It's a rumor that a lot of guys are saying these days but you could answer me? my cousins just scolded me.

-"I swear I'll find the one who starts the rumors and I'll beat him up".
