She Was Actually My Stepsister. ~Recently, The Sense Of Distance Between Me And My New Stepbrother Is Incredibly Close~ - Chapter 5.5

August 11 (Thursday)

It has been three weeks today since I came to this house.

Ojii-san is out for work today and mom won’t be home until midnight. 

I was eating pizza and playing games with Aniki and he told me he was happy that I became his sibling.

At first Aniki asked me to befriend him and I found it difficult to do that with a man other than Dad. But then I realized that I was the one approaching Aniki.

I feel like this is a great change.

Aniki said he wants to get closer to me.

I was happy, or at least embarrassed, to think that my brother really cared about me like this.

But I do think it’s unusual to take a bath together…

He told me he was just going to wash my back.

How often do siblings take a bath together? I mean, we’re just stepsiblings…

I thought it was strange, and then I found out why…

What a surprise, Aniki thought I was his younger brother all along…

How is that possible even after living together for three weeks?

I’ve always thought Aniki was a little weird, but I knew something was off about him.

He looks a lot like my Uncle. A bit of a disappointment. How am I going to look at him tomorrow?

Aniki, is he still depressed when he found out that I’m his little sister?

Will he be more concerned about me tomorrow?

I don’t want that. I want to stay with Aniki like this…

No, I want to be closer to my Aniki…

Translator’s Afterword:

I bolded out that one line even though it’s not like that in the raws because that’s exactly my thoughts for chapter 5 lmao.
