All the Heroines are my Ex-girlfriends

"Well then, I'm heading out first."

Though Shinomiya Kaguya was somewhat unwilling, she temporarily held back.

The Shinomiya family's car had been waiting for a long time.

She opened her umbrella, left the school building, and reunited with Hayasaka Ai. The two of them then returned to the Shinomiya estate.

"Ah, my car's here too! Azuma-kun, Suou-san, bye bye~!"

Fujiwara Chika waved goodbye to the two of them before quickly leaving.

That left only Suou Yuki and Yukima Azuma.

"Guhehehe~, onii-chan-sama, now it's just the two of us left in the entire school."

( ≖‿ ≖ )

Suou Yuki let out a strange laugh, as if she had been possessed by some dirty old man otaku hentai.

Yukima Azuma eyed her suspiciously and asked cautiously,

"What are you planning?"

"Nuh-uh, the real question is—what is onii-sama planning to do? A rainy night, an empty school, just a boy and a girl alone… No matter how you think about it, something is bound to happen!"

( ͡º ꒳ ͡º)

"Happen what, exactly!? That kind of thing only happens in 2D worlds! You baka otaku!"

"Eh? But onii-sama is also a high school boy full of youthful energy, isn't he?"

"Can you not talk about high school boys as if they're some kind of horny beasts in heat!?"

"Is there a difference?"

Yukima Azuma's mouth twitched. He flicked his finger against Suou Yuki's forehead.

"Uwaa!" The girl yelped, immediately clutching her head in a defensive position.

Even though he knew she was just messing around,

Yukima Azuma instinctively reached out and gently rubbed her forehead.

"There, there. Enough fooling around—it's time to go home."

Hearing this, Suou Yuki stood up.

She took a small three-fold umbrella out of her backpack.

"Then, I'll be relying on onii-sama."

…

The two of them left the student council room and stepped out of the school building.

Yukima Azuma unfolded the compact umbrella.

But he quickly realized—the canopy was quite small.

It was fine for covering one person, but for two…

Unless they stood very close together, one of them was definitely going to get wet.

Yukima Azuma looked at Suou Yuki with suspicion.

He suspected she had intentionally chosen such a small umbrella.

However, given the usual design of three-fold umbrellas, having a small canopy was normal.

Before Yukima Azuma could say anything,

Suou Yuki had already pressed up close to him.

She directly hugged onto one of Yukima Azuma's arms.

"To keep onii-sama from getting wet, this is the only way."

"This Super-Kawaii Imouto-chan—isn't she just so thoughtful~?"

( • ̀ω•́ )✧

Suou Yuki tilted her head up, her face full of expectation, waiting to be praised.

Yukima Azuma nodded.

And just like that, the two of them pressed close together, stepping into the rain.

Raindrops fell from the sky, tapping against the umbrella with soft, rhythmic sounds.

On either side of the school building, the summer flowers that had bloomed so brightly were now swaying under the downpour.

It was easy to predict—

Tomorrow, the staff in charge of maintaining the Shuchiin Academy gardens would have their hands full.

Then again, it was about time for the summer flowers to be replaced anyway.

As they walked through small puddles, they made their way toward the school gates.

The Suou family's car was already waiting.

Kimishima Ayano stood beside the vehicle, holding an umbrella.

Seeing the two approach, she immediately opened the car door.

"Onii-sama, please get in first. I'll hold the umbrella for you."

Suou Yuki took the umbrella from him, holding it above the car door so Yukima Azuma could enter without getting wet.

Seeing this scene, Kimishima Ayano's eyes blinked slightly.

Normally, this kind of task should have been hers—her duty as the personal maid.

Since when did oujou-sama personally attend to someone like this?

However, as an exceptional maid, Kimishima Ayano quietly suppressed her doubts.

Once her oujou-sama was about to enter the car, she immediately stepped forward to take the umbrella from her.

Yukima Azuma and Suou Yuki both sat in the back seat.

Kimishima Ayano took her place in the front passenger seat.

The Suou family's driver started the car, then looked into the rearview mirror and asked:

"Ojou-sama, where we to?"

Suou Yuki turned to look at Yukima Azuma.

So, he gave his home address.

"Go to this place." Suou Yuki immediately ordered, a satisfied smile spreading across her face.

Keikaku Doori! (≖ᴗ≖ ✿)

With this, she had successfully learned onii-sama's home address.

And knowing his address—what could she do with that?

Well, since they were Brother-sister, dropping by for a visit from time to time was completely normal!

The distance from Shuchiin to Yukima's house wasn't far, so the car quickly arrived outside his house.

Suou Yuki opened the car door first and unfolded the umbrella.

Once Yukima Azuma got out, she held the umbrella and walked beside him.

The two of them walked side by side toward the front door, almost reaching the porch when—

A sudden autumn breeze swept through.

"Ah..."

Along with the girl's soft exclamation—

The umbrella tilted as the wind blew it aside.

The canopy, already too small to fully shield both of them, now shifted further, making it even less effective against the rain.

Both of them got a little wet.

Under the porch—

Yukima Azuma glanced at Suou Yuki.

The hair on her forehead was drenched, strands sticking to her cheeks.

She looked a little pitiful.

Seeing Yukima Azuma looking at her, Suou Yuki immediately put on a miserable expression.

Like a small puppy abandoned in the rain.

(╥‸╥)

"Alright, alright, I get it. Take a shower before you go."

Yukima Azuma shook his head and chuckled.

Hearing that, Suou Yuki immediately raised her hands: "Yay~!"

He took out his keys and unlocked the front door.

After stepping inside, Yukima Azuma switched to indoor slippers, then bent down to the bottom compartment of the shoe rack to retrieve a pair of disposable guest slippers.

Suou Yuki, however, let her gaze linger on the shoe rack.

It had multiple shelves, containing both women's leather shoes and high heels.

She immediately turned to Yukima Azuma with a suspicious look.

As far as she knew, Yukima Azuma had no older sister or female relatives living with him.

"Onii-sama, is there a girl living here?"

She asked curiously while changing into the slippers.

"Umu, there are a few close girls renting rooms here."

Yukima Azuma answered matter-of-factly.

Hearing that, Suou Yuki pouted.

"They must have all moved in within the last three years, right?"

In just a split second, she vaguely understood something.

Why Yukima Azuma had told her to wait three years before coming to find him.

If she had appeared earlier—

It might have triggered a butterfly effect and changed the number of tenants living here.

Yukima Azuma nodded, confirming Suou Yuki's guess.

"Ugh, so unfair! It should've been me!!" Suou Yuki blurted out in frustration.

▄█▀█●

But she quickly put on a nonchalant expression: "It's fine. Even if onii-sama gets momentarily captivated by other girls, as long as he ultimately comes back to me, it's all good!"

"Which badass CEO romance novel female lead did you just step out of?" Yukima Azuma was speechless, casually opening the cabinet to take out a towel.

He handed the towel to Suou Yuki, then led her to the bathroom on the first floor.

"As for clothes..." Yukima Azuma glanced around the house.

There were plenty of girls' clothes here.

From small, petite sizes to mature onee-san styles—he had them all.

But today, the girls hadn't returned home yet.

Even though he had the keys to their rooms,

Yukima Azuma still preferred to ask for permission before touching their personal belongings.

"Would you be okay with one of my white dress shirts?" he finally asked.

"Hum Hum!" Suou Yuki eagerly nodded her head.

(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)

So, Yukima Azuma went to his room and took out a fresh, clean white dress shirt.

Then, the sound of rushing water echoed from the bathroom.

Yukima Azuma also returned to his room.

Each bedroom had its own private bathroom, so he took the opportunity to shower as well.

By the time he finished changing and stepped out—

It just so happened that Suou Yuki was also opening the bathroom door to step out.

"You shower really fast— Put on your shirt!!"

Yukima Azuma was in the middle of speaking when he suddenly changed to a complaining tone.

Because Suou Yuki wasn't wearing the dress shirt he had given her.

She had only wrapped herself in a single bath towel.

"Doesn't it feel more real this way?" Suou Yuki, still wrapped in the towel, struck a pose.

"Put some damn clothes on!"

"Aww, don't be like that! Look, in all those siscon anime, isn't there always a scene like this? The two of them chat while only wearing towels, then whoops— the towel falls, serving up some super deluxe fanservice!"

"That's just a cheap trick to sell light novels with extra illustrations, not a serious plot point."

"Either way, this is fanservice now! Yada!"

"Just who exactly are you talking to?"

"Eh? Obviously, it's directed at the audience perspective—the unemployed, chubby otaku watching from the sidelines!"

"Onii-sama, don't worry, they can only read this, not actually see it. Ehe~"

In the end, Yukima Azuma grabbed the white dress shirt.

And directly threw it over both Suou Yuki and her towel.

Thankfully, his shirt was oversized enough.

After putting it on, all she had to do was pull the towel out from underneath.

With the chaos settled—

Suou Yuki sat on Yukima Azuma's bed.

Holding his hairdryer, she carefully dried her hair.

"Onii-sama, so what do you think about President Shinomiya's NTR move?"

Suou Yuki asked curiously.

It was obvious to anyone that Shinomiya Kaguya treated Yukima Azuma differently.

And with her sharp intuition, Suou Yuki saw even more than that.

She could tell that Shinomiya Kaguya was actively trying to draw Yukima Azuma to her side.

Moreover, it seemed like even Kaguya herself hadn't realized—

That this wasn't just a simple recruitment tactic.

There were feelings mixed in.

"NTR? What are you even talking about..." Yukima Azuma twitched the corner of his mouth. "I don't have any special thoughts about it."

Regarding Shinomiya Kaguya's attempts to pull him in—

Yukima Azuma remained completely unmoved.

If he really wanted to live off a rich girl,

then marrying Eriri or Hinatsuru Ai wouldn't be any different from marrying Shinomiya Kaguya.

In fact, the first two even offered slightly better benefits.

Although the Shinomiya Group held immense power—

Shinomiya Kaguya was still just the youngest daughter in her family.

Meanwhile, Eriri and Hinatsuru Ai were the sole heirs of their respective families.
