小嫂子的味道

And like that, Ron left, and we had to live on our own for a week.

Ron's carriage was gone and now I turned back and then walked inside the hotel.

I don't think I will face any problem since I am used to living alone, after all, in my previous life I lived in an apartment for three years all by myself.

The problem here is Anya, according to what I know, she is not used to living alone and maybe that will cause some issues here.

Well, I'll just have to somehow deal with it if a situation like that knocks on my door.

I returned to my room, my moves were moving faster than normal because I had something to do.

Now that Ron is gone and I don't have anything else to do, 'I CAN FINALLY SLEEP ON THAT HEAVENLY BED!'

I opened the door and entered inside; one can easily tell that I was in a hurry just by looking at me.

Entering my room I saw that Anya was doing something, she now wore a different dress and from the looks of it…maybe she was planning on going somewhere?

That I can understand but why in my room huh? Can't I even have the least bit of privacy here?

I pondered over it for a while and then remembered something that directed my rage toward Ron.

'HE FUCKIN FORGOT TO BOOK ANOTHER ROOM!!!!!' I screamed inwardly.

According to the plan, we were only going to stay in this hotel for a few hours before I and Anya shift to the dormitories of the academy, but that was when we didn't know that we'll have to wait a week here.

Now the situation was different! Don't tell me he FORGOT this!

'Ahhhhh! Why a cliché novel situation is happening to me right now?!? Whenever I read these kinds of things I thought it was pure fiction, I never ever thought that something like this can happen in real life!'

No wait, wait, wait for a second, calm down.

I am a calm and rational person, so there's no need to panic over this. I have to think things objectively here.

First of all, this is not a rom-com anime or novel, nor are I and Anya unrelated by blood.

We are real siblings so the possibility of a you-know-what situation happening is ruled out. There's no need to worry about that.

The problem I am worried about is...how will I sleep now?

There's only one bed in this room and it's barely the size for two people to sleep on it comfortably. The money Ron left us with was for buying some daily use things so we can't book another room with it.

"Oh, you are back?" asked Anya when she noticed my presence.

"Huh? Oh, yes. Ron has left so I…am back," I replied.

No point in overthinking it now, I'll deal with the problem when the time to sleep comes. And it seems like Anya hasn't realized this situation yet so I think it's better to just play along here.

"Are you going somewhere?" I asked.

I noticed this right after I entered the room but from her dress code, it was not out of the syllabus to think that she is going somewhere.

I that's the case then it will I'll probably get some alone time to sleep so I just asked her directly.

"Yes, since there is nothing much to do, so I thought I'll go see this city and do a bit of shopping," said Anya.

Shopping huh, well, despite the usual serious behavior, she *is* a girl after all. This is normal I guess.

"I see, enjoy then," I said and carefully made my way toward the bed.

"What do you mean by that? Are you not coming as well?" she asked, in her eyes, it seemed like the most obvious question of all time.

"…..Why would I?" after a brief pause, I replied back with a question of my own.

I mean, come on now! I am sleep-deprived right now and all these things that are stopping me from having a good sleep are just piling up one after another.

"Well, since you are not from this world, I thought you will be willing to explore this city because it's a new place. Is that not the case?" she furrowed her brows and asked.

Yes, I admit I want to explore this city, but not right now, not RIGHT NOW OKAY!

"Uhh, no you are right…it's just that."

"It's just that?"

She looked right into my eyes; her gaze contained a shine of innocence as she waited for me to give her an answer.

This was something that happens every day, then...

'Am I being emotionally blackmailed right now?' I thought. It was like she wanted me to go with her, but why though?

The way she is looking at me, I can't ignore her now, ah this is bad. Hence, I decided to give her an answer.

"Actually I would have loved to go with you but right now I am tired, sorry but I just want to sleep for now."

"Oh, I see."

What? Did she think it'll work on me? It would've been a possibility if I had any other thing to do but I can't compromise my sleep now, since I don't know whether I'll be able to sleep on this bed next time or not.

After that Anya left and I quickly went to sleep.
