“Hey, that’s not true.”
“What the! Just looking at them, they seem like they’re barely old enough to enroll in school, and with talent like this, you could easily say it’s a divine gift!”
“Ugh!”
Seeing the Goddess of Time grinning broadly among the adults weirdly makes me feel bad.
I used to not understand people who felt good about other people’s misfortunes, but if this is the kind of emotion, I think I could definitely get it.
“When I see her happy, I get all gloomy.”
I unknowingly nodded at Sen, who was mumbling while sipping her drink.
“Is it because she’s your younger sister? We think alike.”
Whenever the Goddess of Time is happy, it just makes me feel bad. And a hand chosen by a god? What kind of nonsense is this?
Especially since she is a god herself.
“Hey, let’s go.”
As soon as I said we should leave since we finished eating, Time wore a clear pouty expression. With her lips poked out, she looked like she wanted to talk more with the artists.
“I want to have a deeper discussion with the professionals.”
“What do you mean…?”
She’s really good at dressing up the fact that she just wants to hang out. I tried to glare at her with a frown, but the Goddess of Time had a little trick up her sleeve.
“Or how about I draw with these people! How about you and Sen go together?!”
“Great idea!”
Sen immediately gave a thumbs up in agreement. Before I could even respond, she paid the shop owner and pulled my wrist, heading outside.
It all happened so quickly that I turned my head to check on the Goddess of Time, but seeing the painters welcoming her and laughing heartily didn’t seem dangerous at all.
“Good deal.”
With a faint smile, Sen linked her arm with mine.
Watching that made me loosen up a bit too, and I smiled back, absent-mindedly giving her a head pat.
“I like this.”
Sen let her head sway naturally to my touch, eyes closed as if savoring the moment. Though our relationship was an awkward mix of being siblings and lovers, for now, I decided not to think about it.
‘How am I going to explain this to Diana later?’
I seriously worried she wouldn’t turn me into a dragonkin and drop me from a high place. She said she’d come home just in time for my vacation.
‘Wait, what if that kind of situation happens with the others then?’
Like the past month when groans never left my house. What if it happened again?
Diana would be here this time.
“Ugh!”
“Oh, sorry.”
I must have squeezed her hand a bit too hard out of tension, and it seemed to hurt Sen a little. Seeing her cheeks puffed out as she patted her own head made me feel unnecessarily guilty.
“So, what should we do first?”
We still had plenty of time today.
Even if nothing specific popped into my head, we could just take a walk and decide as we talked.
Though I was thinking leisurely, Sen suddenly turned her eyes wide and pointed without hesitation at one spot.
“Theater?”
I heard it recently opened, showing content that’s been recorded in advance using a magical projector onto a big screen. It was said to showcase direction and stories not found in plays, and Eve had recommended it. She mentioned she was preparing to have her own work turned into a film and wanted to go see it together.
I never expected Sen would want to watch a movie.
“Let’s go!”
“Okay.”
At the theater entrance, posters were plastered everywhere. There was more than I expected, and with various showtimes, it was quite interesting.
‘If it’s here, I might be able to come a few times.’
In a flash, I remembered that Mei had said to go on a date later, and I thought I could use that, but then immediately cursed myself for that trashy thought.
“You pick what you want to see.”
Sen pondered for a moment in front of the posters, resting her chin. There were movies about combat, ones that looked like romances, and films related to murder incidents.
Surprisingly, they all seemed like they could be fun, but…
‘Maybe Sen won’t pick the romance?’
Since she didn’t want to remember her past as an assassin, I thought she’d probably pick romance.
Honestly, being someone who doesn’t read romance novels much either, it sounded like the least interesting option, but…
‘Well, it doesn’t really matter.’
If Sen liked it, I could just go along with it.
That’s the classiness of being a big brother.
“I picked one! I’ll buy the tickets.”
Feeling a bit proud of herself, Sen dashed off to the ticket booth to get the tickets. I tried to offer to pay, but I realized my money was essentially Sen’s money at home, so I just let it go.
I thought we’d have some time before the movie started, but Sen ran back holding the ticket and grabbed my hand.
“It starts right now! Let’s go in!”
“Huh? This fast?”
Did she pick the movie that starts soon because she didn’t want to waste time? I thought maybe I should’ve insisted she watch something she really wanted, but we were already through the turnstile.
Since it was still morning, there weren’t many people.
We were in the back row, so there were even fewer people around, which was pretty nice.
Seated, I asked Sen,
“So, what movie did you pick?”
“Hmm? Hold on… it’s called ‘Exploring the Mysteries of the Continent.’”
“……You wanted to watch that?”
It sounded really boring just hearing it.
Sen looked perplexed and replied, “What? No, I just picked the fastest one.”
“Haah.”
Just as I suspected.
I realized she picked whatever was quickest without thinking, so I got up to suggest we watch something else, but—
Thunk!
The lights went out, and the movie started.
No wonder there were so few people; who would want to watch something like ‘Exploring the Mysteries of the Continent’?
“Get up and watch something you want to see…”
Crash!
As I was about to stand, Sen grabbed me and roughly pushed me back into my seat. She expertly climbed onto me, turning her back to the screen while looking down at me.
I couldn’t see the screen because of her face.
Her face, illuminated by the screen’s light, turned slightly pink as she breathed heavily.
“I, I’ve really tried to hold back. I actually wanted to continue back in the room, but the goddess woke up.”
“…Huh?”
“So it’s fine, right?”
Squee!
Covering my face with her hands, Sen leaned in to kiss me. In no time, her tongue pushed past my teeth, intertwining with mine.
“J-just! Slow down!”
I tried to push her away, telling her to calm down, but Sen, perched on top, wrapped her legs around my waist and gripped the backrest tight.
“Mmph! Mmph!”
No way to escape now.
After a while, I just breathed through my nose while Sen finally pulled back.
“Phew!”
“Hah! Hah! Hey, is that enough…!”
Taking a deep breath, Sen seemed satisfied and came right back for another kiss. My tongue ached, and my mouth felt numb.
Like devouring food ravenously, Sen continued to forcefully explore my mouth.
But that was where it ended.
Sen seemed to prefer kissing above anything else and kept yearning for more.
Thanks to that, even though my lower body felt incredibly rigid, I only felt her butt slightly, with no other actions happening.
Sen had a look as if she were under a spell.
Sometimes her eyes were closed, but later, she seemed to be making direct eye contact with me, wearing a blissful expression.
As she licked and cleaned up the saliva trickling down her chin, a myriad of thoughts crossed my mind.
‘They say late-learned theft is the scariest.’
With our bodies pressed together, the kisses continued.
Eventually, one and a half hours passed.
When the movie ended and the lights came on, and people began heading outside, only then did Sen pull away from my lips and rise off me.
“Hah, hah.”
Red-cheeked, she looked at me.
I wiped away the drool from my lips, making a grimace at the tingling in my mouth.
“You didn’t want to watch a movie; you just wanted to do this, didn’t you?”
“Uh? Yeah. Of course.”
“……”
She was so shamelessly straightforward that I was left speechless. My lips felt swollen; it felt like I was bleeding inside.
Maybe because she hadn’t received much affection compared to others, her desperate kisses were quite intense.
“Hah, I can’t eat any more today.”
As we left the screening room, I mumbled, and Sen nodded as if it were obvious.
“Yeah, there’s no time for food today.”
“Hmm?”
What the heck did she mean? I looked at Sen, who pulled out a wad of paper from her pocket. To my surprise, they were all movie tickets.
It was enough for us to watch movies all day long.
“……”
I couldn’t help but drop my jaw.
Sen held up the one at the front and linked her arm with mine.
“This next movie is this one. Let’s go in right away; it’s already started.”
“Wait, just a moment.”
“Let’s hurry!”
Forcing me along, Sen was still bubbling with excitement, her cheeks flushed as she breathed heavily.
