Hime and Shinyo seemed to get along surprisingly well.
"So, Hi-chan is Yo-chan's 'friend'."
"Yes. He's always been kind to me as a friend. I think he's a wonderful person."
"Yes! Yo-chan is wonderful. After all, he's Koharu's future husband ♪"
Well, I think there are more attractive people out there.
I'm not as great as these kids say I am. I think I'm just an ordinary high school student.
Of course, it's not normal (self-proclaimed).
He is a genuine "ordinary man" with no secret story behind him, such as being ordinary but actually handsome, ordinary but actually good at studying, or ordinary but actually good at fighting.
The only good thing about him is that he's "kind," a common trait among people of this type. Well, it's precisely because he doesn't have any outstanding abilities that he tries to be kind to others, but he's not that great of a person.
So, being loved by both of them makes me feel really embarrassed.
How should I put it, she was just embarrassed.
(...What should I say?)
If I were a stronger person, I would be able to act more calmly.
It would be too difficult to get someone who is genuinely happy with the compliments of two eight-year-old girls to say something witty in this situation.
So all I could do was watch the two of them interact in silence.
"Your future husband... how wonderful. In the future, my sister will be marrying Youhei-kun, so I think I will become your younger sister. When that time comes, I hope you will treat me well as your sister-in-law."
"...Ah! That's true, if Koharu marries Yo-chan, then Hi-chan will be my cousin."
First of all, I would like people to feel uncomfortable about the situation that is leading to polygamy, but that's beside the point.
If I were to print out the conversation between the two of them, my legal wife would be Shinyo-chan, my second would be Hijiri-san, and her sister would be Hime... so is it correct to say that Hime would be Shinyo-chan's sister-in-law?
But is it okay for an older sister to exist? As an ordinary person, I didn't really understand this. Naturally, I've never been married, so I've never looked into it.
So, without even knowing what the mistake was or how to correct it, I ended up keeping quiet.
"That's right. In the future, Koharu will be my big sister."
"Nihihihi♪ I see, I see, Koharu is your big sister...!"
Shinyo-chan seems to be in a really good mood.
It's probably because Hime praises her a lot. It's rare... Even though he's a very possessive child, he was very tolerant towards Hime.
Shinyo is a heavy-hearted girl who doesn't even want her sister to get close to me.
She is a jealous, selfish type who will throw a tantrum if no one pays attention to her, but Hime seems special to her.
"That's right! What if Hi-chan becomes Yo-chan's 'wife'? Koharu, I like Hi-chan, so let's be brides together."
He must have really liked Hime... I'm surprised that Shinyo would ever allow me to marry another girl.
Well, it's really strange how it's turning into a harem, and it feels like it's not about me.
"That's impossible. I don't deserve to be Yohei's wife."
"Eh! Let's do it together? We can have lots of fun together!"
"...It certainly looks like fun to play."
"Then let's do it! Hi-chan will join us too♪"
"That's right... Then please sit at the end of the table with your wife."
No no.
To begin with, I can't marry multiple people, and the basic premise is that I don't have the capacity for it.
Also, Hime... you're mistaken.
(I'm the one who's not a good match for Hime though.)
Why does he have such low self-esteem?
That was the only thing that bothered me a little.
