TS reincarnated in Harem text

*Fuu*

"So cold"

I rubbed my hands together to seek warmth in a white city that welcomed a new day in a low-temperature season. However, the cold and frosty snow couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the youths who were excited about this religious day of Christianity. The colorful neon lights flickered dazzlingly on the street and weren't suppressed by the white snow at all, but they painted more for the atmosphere of a big festival. The sky was dyed bolder than ordinary with a navy blue.

Although it was early in the morning, people had crowded and occupied many empty places, making it hard to walk casually on the streets of this big Tokyo City. Some were on the way to their workplace. Some figures of underaged teenagers walked hand in hand to date each other. Children were following their adults to play on this day.

The phenomenon only in the winter could occur. The white smoke came out from everybody's mouth on the street, and I was no exception to this phenomenon.

"Hah~"

A white smoke exuded out of my mouth. Despite just an evident operation of creatures on the Earth, I couldn't help but feel emotional toward it. After all, it proved that we were still alive. We had our temperatures on our bodies. Every single being had the heat to operate their functional body to live...Yes, live on...

How could a paper figure breathe out of white smoke?

"Oujo-sama, you can use my mini heat bag to warm your hands"

A red-haired girl suggested to me.

Why?

I wasn't the protagonist you were looking for. 

Why did you smile like that? Were you still an emotionless Kuudere woman in the novel?

Almost 3 years...

I finally realized...

Heroines...

I didn't know them at the slightest point.

I thought I thoroughly knew their personalities through the description of the text...I was wrong. I didn't know them at all...Their existence was still a question in my mind. Did they have the luck of this world like Chinese novels? Or the world's will didn't exist in the first place?

"Thank you"

"But I don't need it"

I replied emotionlessly.

I raised my head to observe the navy blue sky on the humans' heads. It was so tranquil that I wanted to lie down on the street to enjoy it. I wanted to leave this noisy city to escape to a peaceful place. 

Such a thought I came up with in my mind.

Run...

Run away again...

Escape...

How many times could I eventually stop running? I doubted my life for Nth times.

In my heart, I had already known this place was my reality. No matter how I closed my eyes, I couldn't return to my previous world. I didn't have any sense of belonging to this place.

"Hah~"

A white smoke escaped from my mouth once again.

It was a lie...

How could I not feel my tie to this world?

Maria-Onee-sama, Natasha-Okaa-sama, Shiori-Okaa-sama, Rei, Aunt Mei, grandpa Souji, grandma Hiyori...My small family in this world...They trusted me unconditionally and loved me wholeheartedly. They knew my problem but respected me to not dig too deep into my wounds.

They waited...

They waited for my trust...

They waited for my honest answer...

Natasha-Okaa-sama had waited for my answer, but I ran again...

Was I worthy of their love?

Why did I feel hesitant?

I knew that...Suddenly, a matching event occurred and the initiator was my strict grandma...I couldn't believe it.

I thought she would be a person who respected children's choices. However, I'd never imagined she would stick me into this event.

"Nee...Mizuno-san"

I involuntarily called out to her, the closet heroine of the character 'Hoshiyuki Suiri'. I didn't know why I called her.

She was completely different from the original plot for now.

I remember that she would keep her short hair throughout the plot, but when I looked at her at this moment. A long straight crimson hair stood out in this flow of people. She actually nurtured her hair long. Her style had been put in a ponytail style.

"Yes, Oujo-sama?"

Mizuno-san replied.

She showed a confused look, making her face lively, which went against the character's design in the novel.

I was quite amused and said.

"If one day...One day, you open your eyes"

"And you realize that you wake up in another world...Completely unfamiliar"

"What will you do?"

"???"

I asked her sincerely. Ahem...My question seemed to have put her brain in a state of overload. Our walk stopped mid-way to the breakfast restaurant near the appointment place of my group. She tilted her head and had a big question mark on her face. To be honest, she was no longer to be qualified for the position of Kuudere heroine. Would the male protagonist contact her and drag her into his harem?

Only the melody of people walking and chatting with each other could be heard. Realizing that I got no response, I got called by my enthusiastic Rei-chan.

"Onoe-chan!!!! Let's go! What're you doing?"

She screamed out loud to get my attention...Such an energetic child.

I turned my back to look at my new sister in this world. She had some resemblances to Haruka when she was young. Or should I say that the white paper hadn't been tainted? Every Christmas, I would lead Haruka to play and have some good food in the shopping district. Our family in this life wasn't much different despite a huge gap in financial resources.

Wasting no more time, I said to Mizuno-san.

"Let's go. You can consider that I've not said anything"

"Yes,. Oujo-sama"

Mizuno-san could only nod her head obediently.

Geez~

My image of Mizuno Sasaki had already shattered into many shards. I didn't know many details about the background of this Heroine, but it should be in a wealthy circle.

"I'm coming"

I yelled emotionlessly to my sister. Speaking of which, my mom was right. My voice was so weird while being monotone.

We headed toward the family restaurant near the Shibuya district.

"Ugh"

I involuntarily let out a weird noise when looking at the scene in front of me.

Maria-Onee-sama was hand in hand with Tenonji-senpai...My eyes got itchy for no reason.

Every eye was glued on this public dog food and I felt uncomfortable in my heart.

When she wasn't acquainted with my Onee-sama, she completely stuck to me and took care of me in every way. Only getting accepted by my sister, threw me away like a used tool. I knew that she didn't mean that...

When in love, no human is normal.

My heart felt at a loss for some unknown reason. It was like my Maria-Onee-sama going away from my hands, but I didn't have the right to stop her from loving others.

I also wanted someone to stand by my side all the time and didn't betray me...Except for Hyouri, who else? There was always a risk to outsiders. The realm of love...How could it be so abstract and incomprehensible?

In romantic movies and novels, it is described as mutual love from both sides. 

Definition is a thing, practice is another thing.

No matter how I looked up and tried to define it, it would be no dead end in that realm.

"Mariri, is it warm?~"

My senpai acted shamelessly in the public place.

It seemed that I wasn't the only one who had this indescribable feeling. The surroundings also looked at them with a strange look.

She snuggled my sister's arm into her bosom. I also wanted that...Kuu~ So jealous~

"One-chan, hug"

Rei spread her hands and requested me.

There should be no problem in hugging a child. My physical problem was no longer as weak as a snail in the past.

This little brat also threw herself into my bosom. I wondered if Rei would be a breast hunter in the future but she also began to compare the breasts of women of the Hoshiyuki family. Of course, she also sexually harassed female workers in the mansion. However, no one complained due to her being a child. Apparently, mine should be on the top list of Rei.

Soon, we arrived at the appointment restaurant.

The shop was also the coffee shop in the morning.

*Keng Keng*

The doorbell rang to announce our arrival in this shop.

I could see a standard Western arrangement in the furniture but I didn't have any surprises because I had been there several times. The shop was large and had enough private space for guests, so I quite liked this shop. In addition, their food was also yummy.

"Ara~, Sui-san, you're here again, welcome"

A middle-aged woman greeted me with an excited expression on her face.

Her name was Amanagi Tomoko-san. She was a kind auntie with a good taste of music. Of course, she also knew my identity in the music field.

Her identity was the boss of this cafeteria. If I remember our conversation correctly, she said that she had built this shop for two decades so it could take the shape of it for now.

"Only you two?"

She asked and paused for a while.

"You have a daughter already"

"???"

I showed a confused look on my face while Auntie was speculating nonsense.

"Hahahaha"

Onee-sama, please stop laughing and help me explain! No, Tenonji-senpai, not you too...Both of them laughed at me...

Geez~

"No, auntie, this is my sister"

"Hahaha, I knew...I'm just joking"

She wore a business smile and said to me.

"Oh, understood, and this young couple?"

"They are my sisters"

"Ara, Welcome, sisters of Hoshiyuki-sensei"

She did a casual greeting as the boss of this shop.

"Yes"

The shop was also different from usual. A large Christmas tree with RGB color was put at the center of the shop and there was a piano instrument placed beside it. This was a unique way of doing business in this shop. Many musicians often found this place to show off their skills in public instead of using speakers to turn on music. What a genius businesswoman.

I found this shop by chance when buying books and instruments nearby. After all, the Shimori family had their branch near the house of the Shimori sisters. Akane-sensei also once recommended this place to me in the past.

Rei's gaze swept around the shop while keeping silent in my chest. She was on guard in the unfamiliar place. It was like she was a lion when stepping into the territory of her enemies.

That was my thought about her at that moment.

"Onoe-chan, what was with those colorful on the shelf?"

Oh, it turned out she was curious about cakes in the self of the shop. Today was a Christmas day, so the cakes were all designed to fix the atmosphere. It was designed strangely, and Rei didn't even realize her once-eaten food. Rei was somehow in contrast to me as she didn't have a sweet tooth. In the past, she once spewed out the cake.

"Oh, they are cakes for Christmas"

I explained to her carefully and taught her some of my knowledge pool.

"Oi! Student Sui-san"

A loli voice called me from the table near the end of the shop.

It was so familiar that as soon as I heard the voice, I knew who she was.

"Akane-sensei, Good morning"

"Akari-sensei, too"

"Good morning~, Hoshiyuki-sensei"

She bent down in front of me like that, which was quite weird. She didn't even cover her bocchi personality anymore. However, she called me 'sensei' outside the school...It brought me an awkward atmosphere. I didn't know why she suffered from the symptoms of being afraid of communicating with people. If students in my school witnessed this scene, they might've thought that I abused my power to make the Emperor of the Stardust Academy bend down herself like that.

Her affection toward me should be called Admiration.

By the way, I also shared my experience when performing on the large stage, but no matter how hard I tried, she couldn't perform like the original plot. It meant that we lacked a certain factor, which was an antagonist to present the urge for the development of the plot. Akari had no one to stop or antagonize her, so she didn't pull out her full potential as a musician.

Then, how could the male protagonist change her? I was quite curious about the power of the child of luck in this world.

"Maria, and Miwako, long time no see, Maria"

Akane-sensei spoke like an Obaa-san near your home.

I meant she was almost 30 already, but she hadn't had anyone yet. The folding on her face was no longer invisible to the naked eye. This was a cruel truth of human beings. Time could mercilessly kill you before you realize it. I also worried and was on guard against time. I knew how precious time was.

She and the two had a talk with each other after a long time.

"Sui-chan, good morning"

Charlotte here again.

"Um, Good morning"

I replied casually. Truthfully, I hadn't known her purpose of being friends with me. I thought that she needed my family's connection to do business, but...After those years, she didn't even call me for help once. My knowledge about this world was out of my grasp, but since when? It seemed that my previous thought was correct. I didn't know them at all.

Other members were sitting at the table as well. Our club just had 7 members at most, the rest were the ghost members. They just joined the club for fun, but it turned out that they found the music field so boring that they quit halfway. There were 3 male members and 4 female members. I, Charlotte, and Tenonji-senpai with the cute female sister of Vice-President Hanayama. He should be the President because my Onee-sama had graduated. It was ridiculous when I saw the scene of my Onee-sama giving the golden stick to him in the ceremony.

"Sui-senpai, Good morning"

She excitedly called me.

"Good morning, Nagisha-san"

"Geez~, don't use 'san' anymore, we're familiar with each other, right?"

"I'm your kouhai, at least, call me a nickname or change it to 'chan'"

She pouted childishly.

"Wow~, your relationship was as good as ever"

The male classmates commented as they discussed their topic that only men knew. I meant the strong gender was interested in. Some of them were alpha, the rest were beta. However, I knew that they wanted to pursue Hanayama Nagisha in the club.

"Rei-chan, greet everyone"

I called out to Rei, who was guarding me from those strangers in her eyes.

"First time, meet you...Take care of me"

She said loudly although her words lost some words due to being too young. Then, she hid her face in my chest again.

Heh~ she seemed to be embarrassed.

"Cute~"

Nagisha was the one who jumped out and approached Rei with the speed of light.

"Senpai, can I hold her?"

Nagisha spoke fast and her breathing became disordered.

Stop! Don't act like a lolicon. Otherwise, as her sister, I would call the police uncle to arrest you.

"Rei-chan, do you want to hug her?"

I asked for Rei's opinion. And then, I saw Rei speculating something, and she sneered in a domineering way.

"Don't want"

"Onoe-chan is the best"

She rubbed her small face on my chest again.

"???"

At first, I didn't understand her behavior. After minutes of thinking, Rei was a child who loved something soft like my chest. Hence, I came to a conclusion when I looked at my junior's bosom. Hummu...

I nodded my head in an understanding way.

Then, I caught my freezing junior in front of me.

"Sorry, Nagisha-san"

"She seems not to want you"

I apologized for my sister's rude behavior and carefully taught her.

"Rei...That was rude, you shouldn't do that in the future, you know"

Like an abandoned puppy, she used her cute technique against me when I scolded her, but her attack was somehow effective.

Geez~

"Sorry for not being big"

My junior murmured depressively.

After that, we had breakfast with traditional meals of Japanese. Udon, Omurice, Curry rice, etc...

When everyone filled their stomach, we casually went to the shopping mall and game arcade to play. Rei was the most enthusiastic person in the group when she arrived there. Luckily, no one realized me in the crowd due to the thick clothes outside.

Because my sister and Tenonji-senpai...my sister-in-law stood out in the crowd, they didn't realize I was there.

Rei was playing shooting fish to get coins despite her body being small. She could only play with my help from the other side. Then, Charlotte called out to me.

"Sui-chan"

"Can you have a minute"

I showed a puzzled expression...no...it should be my expressionless face titling to the other side to show my puzzle.

"Oh, you two have something to talk about? Sui-chan, go"

"We will take care of Rei-chan"

Maria-Oneesama and Tenonji-senpai suddenly appeared out of nowhere at the same time as the heroine Charlotte.

I smell a conspiracy, or could I just overthink the problem?

Mizuno-san's expression turned cold for some reason but I didn't know why. Her brows could be said to be knitted together, which was amusing to see the Kuudere girl having a lively expression.

It seemed that she finally wanted to use the connection of the Hoshiyuki family through me, huh?

Maria-Onee-sama also paved the way for her. It meant that it would be for business.

---

We arrived at the small milk tea shop in the shopping mall, and I ordered a milk tea cup with matcha flavors.

What was wrong with Charlotte?

I could sense the tense nervousness in her atmosphere.

You called me out to have a private talk, weren't you? Why hadn't you spoken yet?

I took a sip of milk tea through the straw.

I crossed my legs and sat easily without obstruction from my past little brother. I meant I understood why women like to sit in this pose. It was quite comfortable and I could kill time while being in the conversation.

*Splurt, Splurt*

I continued to taste the bittersweet from Matcha milk tea while waiting for Charlotte.

"Sui-chan..."

She murmured weakly, but I could catch her words.

"Yes"

I replied to confirm that I could hear her voice.

"Can you not attend the blind date?"

She asked me strangely.

"Eh?"

"How did you know?"

I was confused as I stopped my leisure behavior. And then, looking at her, I asked seriously.

How could she know?

"I heard from my parents"

She replied honestly. Was that so?

She used both of her hands rubbing to ease her nervousness.

"Then, what do you want to talk about?"

I said.

"Sui-chan, are you an idiot?!!!"

Her facial expression turned into a grievance...Her eyes locked me in her grasp. I didn't know what she meant. Why did you curse me? Did I do something wrong?

I temporarily put the milk tea cup on the table.

Soon, I was surprised by the transparent crystal condensed from the liquid from her eyes. Were you serious? Were you crying?

Why? Why? Why?

Although I was expressionless, my heart began to panic when I saw the tears from a woman. In my previous life, the biggest sin was to make a woman cry. What did I do wrong?

Many questions ran through my head as I wanted to find the reason...the answer for her behavior at this moment.

*Sniff*

She sniffed her nose. Then, she used her slender hands to swipe away those seemingly painful liquids in her eyes.

I was startled by her sudden behavior.

"Um...What did I do wrong?"

I asked puzzlingly.

"Sui-chan..."

She said my nickname in a disappointed tone.

"How can you not know my feelings???"

What?

Charlotte asked me in a condemned tone.

My brain got trapped by her question.

"Hah~"

She took a deep breath while I was carefully observing her behavior.

"What do you mean?"

I asked again...

"You're an idiot!"

She cursed me again...

"Hoshiyuki Suiri...From the beginning, I have liked you for a long time!!"

"How could you not know this!!?"

She said in one breath which made my brain stop working.

My mind suddenly went blank as I couldn't respond to her question.

So...

So.......

So..........It turned out that she approached me forcefully because she liked me? Were you kidding me? Impossible! I didn't do anything like the male protagonist. How could I achieve her full affection? However, this was reality, not the second-dimensional work, nor the fiction of some authors. My eyes widened in disbelief as my milk tea cup could only smell the bitterness of matcha flavors while the sweetness from the milk had disappeared.

"You mean...love?"

I asked again in disbelief.

"Yes"

She nodded her head as her expression was in despair. It was like she went to the battlefield with only one life.

There was a saying that 'Confession from true love' took a lot of courage more than usual to confess to the other party. I meant she had loved me from her heart. There was no way to explain why she was crying...

"Since when?"

I absentmindedly asked.

"When I was 9 years old..."

"Sui-chan, I knew you would forget that we'd met at the Piano competition 5 years ago"

"I remember you deeply and like you at that time"

"So long..."

I exclaimed...

"..."

I was speechless.

It meant that the wing of the butterfly effect took off from the beginning.

There was silence taking place instead of continuing to have a conversation.

I wanted to run away from this place as soon as possible. After all, I took too much from her without knowing it.

Maybe I would come up with a solution when I came home. Therefore, I needed to stay away from her...

Run...

I wanted to escape...

'Hyouri'

'Can you swap...'

Before I knew it, my hand was grasped by Charlotte and she looked at me angrily.

"You want to run again...Sui-chan"

"I won't let you escape until I hear your answer"

"How many times do you want to stay away from reality and let your other self decide for you?!"

My struggle stopped when I heard she expressed her truthful opinion about me.

I was so shocked and my feet were frozen in place.

My escape intention was extinguished before I knew it.

"You knew?"

I was surprised...and could only mutter a question.

"Yes!! I knew you had a second personality"

"I knew you liked sweet food"

"I knew your favorite chorus when composing a song"

"I knew you liked to wear well-dressed clothes instead of exposing your body"

"I knew you always pushed the problem for the second personality"

"I knew you hid yourself under the cold mask"

"I knew you liked women"

"I knew it...I knew everything about you through 5 years"

I slumped down to the chair and watched her expressions and emotions bursting out.

"And I knew you were afraid of relationships"

She stopped her voice and looked at me emotionally.

I didn't want to face her, but there was no response from Hyouri...

"Don't you dare to switch with her"

She said seriously and warned me.

She knew...

She knew all of my problems...

"I want to talk with Hoshiyuki Suiri, not the mask!"

She made a clear statement...

She blocked all the escape routes and locked me in her palms. How could she know? My family didn't even realize that I had a second personality. How could she know?

I was panicked...

"Sui-chan, face me"

She held both my cheeks to look directly at her eyes. 

It was scary...

No.

No...

I didn't want this!

I didn't want this to happen!

Why did you pull me out of my comfort zone again? Why?

I didn't want to!!!!!

Yada!!

'Hyouri'

'Help me!'

I yelled hysterically in my mind and begged for her help.

"Sui-chan, escape won't help you"

"I love you"

"And..."

"I want you to love me...trust me"

"I promise that I won't hurt you"

She said while convincing me in my ears.

My mind went blank as I didn't know how to deal with the situation.

"No, I don't love you"

I reconfirmed my statement.

I wanted to escape...

"Are you serious?"

Charlotte asked me in disbelief.

"Do you reply that to escape or from the bottom of your heart?"

"I..."

I couldn't answer because her points were right. Moreover, I also knew my problem the best, and she could pinpoint it exactly. As expected of the main heroine of this novel...a hammer.

There was no time to appreciate her insight.

'Hyouri, why didn't you answer?'

No matter how hard I called, Hyouri didn't even give me a signal. Why?

Why?

Don't tell me...

Don't tell me...

Did I lose her?

Recalling our past parting away, she said 'I'm always by your side'. Was it a lie? How could she lie to me? Did she betray me? If so, what was the point of her existence? How could I live without her?

I tried every means to enter our mindscape but it was no use. As if it wasn't even there in the first place. Why?

So many questions 'why' popped up one after another.

"I don't know"

"I don't know anything"

My madness occurred when I realized that Hyouri was no longer there...

Someone...Help me!

"What're you doing to Oujo-sama?"

A familiar voice echoed as I realized my attendant was still following behind me...

"Mizuno-san?"

"Yes, I'm here Oujo-sama"

"I remind you not to use force against her"

Charlotte released my hand as my mental energy was exhausted quickly.

"What are you? Do you think that you help her? You just harm her instead"

She said to my attendant reasonably which made Mizuno-san's face ugly.

Then, Charlotte turned back to me and spoke.

"Sui-chan, you can answer 'no', but I won't give up"

"I will teach you how to love and give you a sense of security in the future"

"So you will trust and love me back"

Charlotte swiped away her tears and boldly declared her intention.

How could she change so much? From a little timid from the beginning to this domineering Alpha...I could smell a strong rose fragrant in the air.

*Thump Thump*

My heartbeat got accelerated as an instinct of Omega...My gland reacted strongly with her pheromone...

I didn't know if I could love her and take away the position of the male protagonist, but it shouldn't be...

Since the moment she declared that she loved me, the plot was useless.

What was with the feeling inside my heart?

Did I love her without knowledge through 3 years together with her?

I didn't know...
