I am placing the sisters + brother here as a reminder.

Nishi Yotsutsuji daughters.

The first daughter is Asahi (朝日)(Morning sun)(Friendly Athletic,Ponytail

The second daughter is Mahiru (真昼)(Midday)(Independent,Shoulder length bob haircut)

Third daughter named Yuudachi(夕立)(Evening Shower)(Long Hair)

The fourth daughter is Yoru.(夜留)(Night)(Aloof, Shoulder length bangs waved.)

The older brother Souji.(奏時) Btw she is always using (私) from now on.

Also Tokiwa Tenjouin, the weird girl that has the hots for “Asahi” and is a weird smell person. Her sister’s name is Kizami (刻)

Sakadera Shouko,Asahi’s friend. Family is loyal to Tenjouin’s family

And Yonagi Sakura Kojii, the weird rich kid that has this weird fascination for “Yoru” and can tell the sisters apart by the light in their eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was certainly in a pinch.

In front of me is Yoru, who came back with some clothes for me to change into.

The problem was what she brought.

It was the clothes she just worn.

“- – -Eh, wait wait. You want me to wear these?”

“It can’t be helped. Those two already saw me in these clothes. So it’d be weird if I’d just change.”

I was a bit annoyed about how naturally she was dealing with this. It’s even giving me a slight headache.

“No. . .But wearing fresh clothes. . .I have some reservations about that.”

“It’s fine, we’re sisters. Moreover, I haven’t worn them for that long.”

“That’s not the problem. . .”

I said but Yoru wasn’t convinced.

“Why do you hate wearing my clothes?”

“. . .It’s not that I hate. Or that it’s because it’s Yoru’s. I just find it rather embarrassing to put on clothes that were just worn.”

“Listen, just get dressed quickly. You’ll be fine.”

Does she have no shame?

I wish she’d just bring me a new one.

While blushing I turned away from Yoru.

“Well, if Yoru is doing it too. . .Then I won’t complain anymore. But please, next time get me some new clothes.”

I’m embarrassed, but I’m not unbearably embarrassed.

I gave a huge sigh and took Yoru’s clothes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“It really looks. . .Like looking into a mirror.”

“I agree.”

We finished exchanging clothes and were both amazed by how uncannily similar we were.

It’s me.

No matter how you look at it. I can only see me.

And it is weird. I wonder if a person who sees a doppelganger feels this. But there was some legend. Like if you see it, you’ll die. I don’t remember the exact story.

But it doesn’t matter.

The point is, you can’t tell the difference.

I’m still doubtful if this could trick my sisters, but maybe. I’m not confident in this charade, but it could work.

“Speaking of which, what kind of errand did you say you were going to do?”

I asked, but for some reason. Yoru had a troubled look.

“Eh. . .Well, that’s right. Uh. . .Study! Yes, studying! I told them I was studying.”

“Studying, I see.”

Based on her reaction something is obviously wrong. But I’ll leave it alone for the time being.

Studying is a pretty solid excuse.

So I can relax, and then immediately pretend that I’m studying. It’s simple because I can just leave a reference book by the bed, and it will excuse me.

“Roger that. Then I’ll head to your room, Yoru.”

“Oh, please come back here before dinner time. I think it will be tough to disguise myself in front of our parents.”

“Understood. Then I’ll see you later.”

After that, I left my room towards the hallway.

Yoru’s room is actually not that far from my room.

Well close is a relative term. Because each of our rooms are large. It’s not that close. Also we can’t hear each other’s voice because the walls are thick.

By the way, her room is to the right of mine. While Mahiru’s room is to the left of mine. And then Asahi next in line to that. So the likelihood of us bumping into each other is high.

So therefore I need to quickly get in Yoru’s room and lock the door.

“Okay. . .So far so good.”

I was relieved there was nobody here.

After that, it’s a straight shot to Yoru’s room.

Once I entered it was all clear.

Okay time to set up the perfect study facade.

Studying supplies. . .Studying supplies. . Where are they?

I looked all around the room, but I couldn’t find anything. There were only light novels.

Are you for real? Does she have nothing. . ?

I think I can maybe find it if I rummage through the room more, but it would mean a breach of etiquette. Even though we are sisters, it’s still rude.

There are some things even a sister shouldn’t see.

With that, I have no choice but to go directly to Yoru. . .

It’s awkward to just re -enter the hallways, but it’s unavoidable.

Although it wouldn’t take more than five minutes to go in and out.

With that in mind I unlocked the door and peaked out.

Then I immediately closed and locked the door.

“Are you serious?”

What I saw in my quick glance was my room. . .And that Asahi and Mahiru entered it.

Yoru. . .Your sacrifice will not be forgotten. . .

I put my palms together and gave my thanks.

Now then, what to do?

If I don’t have some kind of prop, I’ll be discovered instantly if they force their way in here.

I couldn’t show my face to Yoru if I did that to her.

. . .Is this okay?

With great regret, I picked up one of the light novels and brought it to the bed.

The illustrations were cute and the letters big.

It was obviously a novel for a child.

Well. For the time being, I can say I was studying Japanese. So maybe I can brush it off that way. . .

Though I’m not confident in that excuse.

Hah. . .Well I’ll worry about that later. . .

I went to bed with the novel in hand.
