[BL] I Noticed That I've Become A BL Game Protagonist's Younger Brother!

Chapter 12.4 - Coming Out(4)

After a while, I managed to calm down.

When I say ‘calm down’, I meant that just by staying still, I’d relax and my face would soften immediately.

As I was recalling what just happened and grinning like a fool, I heard a ‘knock knock’ sound.

“Akira.”

It was big brother that knocked on the door.

I heard a soft voice through the door.

It didn’t feel cold anymore.

That alone made me really happy.

“……I’m sorry about that earlier. I’d like to apologize properly. Can I come in?”

He said as he opened the door. There big brother stood, with an apologetic expression.

When he met my eyes, he said, “Sorry,” and smiled.

I had actually been a little worried about whether he would make up with me or not; but when I saw that smile, I realized that I had nothing to worry about.

I felt an urge to hug him, but he’s Haru-nii’s, so I put up with it and invited him into the room.

We sat side by side and decided to talk.

“Have you made up with Haru-nii?”

“Yeah. I’m sorry, Akira. You didn’t do anything wrong. I should be the one to apologize. I’m really sorry……”

It was really difficult when big brother was being cold to me.

But the reward that he gave me at the end blew away all the difficulties that I had till now.

“It’s fine. It was painful when big brother wouldn’t smile, but it’s fine now.”

“Akira……”

The angel’s smile that I’ve been longing for finally appeared.

Big brother reached out his hand and stroked my head.

I was happy to be treated like a kid.

“I wouldn’t come to hate Akira. I was just jealous of you.”

It was strange for big brother to be jealous.

I still can’t believe it.

As I kept quiet, big brother gently began to talk.

“When I was a kid, I thought that Akira was cunning. You’re charming and cute no matter what you do. Everyone likes you. It was something that I couldn’t do.”

I don’t think so.

People usually preferred my brother and I wanted to be like him.

Big brother smiled as I talked about it.

“Are we equally asking for too much?”

That just might be it.

And I laughed too in return.

“Mom and Dad too, they were only worried about Akira since you were little. Even now when they call me, they’re only worried about Akira.”

“That’s because big brother is so reliable that they’re not worried about you.”

“I know. They always say ‘Makoto is fine’, so I’ve been aware of that. I even try to keep that in mind. Even so, I end up thinking that I want them to worry about me sometimes.”

“So it was like that.”

I didn’t know that big brother, who was able to do anything since he was little and is perfect, had such a thought.
