It was a Monday like any other, one of those tedious days when boredom sets in early, marking the beginning of a school week that would extend for the endless four days until the long-awaited Friday. When you woke up, you got out of bed lazily and, as usual, went to the bathroom to brush your teeth and get ready for the day. Once ready, you packed your backpack and went down the stairs, heading to the dining room.
There, you found your mother cooking, with a homely atmosphere that always comforted you. Next to her was your older sister, Aneko. At 18 years old, she was one of the most beautiful young women in her school, with her long green hair that fell softly over her shoulders and her piercing blue eyes that lit up any room. Despite the rudeness of the sleep you still dragged along, you couldn't help but admire her for a moment.
You sat down on the dining chair, and in a few moments, Aneko finished serving the pancakes with care, accompanied by a glass of milk. However, before you could even take the first bite, Aneko approached you with a playful smile. She took your face tenderly and began to cover your face with soft kisses, while her eyes shone with affection.
—You better eat everything, little brother she said, her voice sweet and affectionate. I got up early just to prepare it for you.
She pulled away a little, but before you could respond, she caressed your head with a gesture of tenderness, as if there was nothing more important than your well-being. Her overprotection, always so present, was not something that bothered you, although sometimes it was more than any brother could wish for. But at that moment, everything seemed normal, and a warm feeling of gratitude towards her filled your chest.
