You're going to kill me with guilt

Ryan looked at Yuki with a sly smile, while tumultuous thoughts crossed his mind.

"Damn, Yuki's really gone crazy after everything that happened."

 In Yuki's head, the chaos was even greater.

"Oh my God, I actually kissed him after calling him Onii-chan! I've become a pervertttt!" 

Despite this, Yuki kept a bright smile on her face, clinging to Ryan's arm. He, in turn, watched her sideways, intrigued, trying to guess what was going on in her head. It was then that Yuki took a deep breath, quickened her pace, and stopped in front of him. Putting her hands behind her back, she leaned slightly towards Ryan, her eyes practically screaming, "Don't you have anything to say?"

Ryan stared at her for a moment, his eyes half-closed, until he finally understood what Yuki expected. A gentle smile appeared on his lips as he placed a hand on his waist. "Okay, okay. I know you want to hear this... Yes, Yuki, you look very beautiful today."

Yuki's face immediately lit up. She puffed out her chest, tossed her hair aside with a smug motion, and declared with satisfaction: "Heheh, your little sister has irresistible charms."

Ryan tilted his head to the side, his voice low and laden with teasing: "Yuki... you're blushing."

She gave a small jump, turning her face away quickly. "Don't start with that, Onii! So, where are we going today?"

Ryan raised an eyebrow, confused. "Well, you were the one who told me you wanted to buy some things and that I should go with you."

Yuki narrowed her eyes, replying firmly: "You're on a date with your lovely sister. Act like you're supposed to."

Ryan looked up at the sky, a little lost, and thought: "And how the hell is a person supposed to act on a date with their sister?"

Sighing, he walked up to her, holding her hand firmly and unexpectedly. Yuki opened a smile that oscillated between satisfaction and despair. Without letting go of her hand, Ryan pulled her closer. "If that's the case, let's act like a real couple. Just like in romantic comedy anime. What do you think?"

Yuki smiled provocatively, her eyes half-closed. "I agree with that, my brother."

Ryan rolled his eyes, still smiling. "If we're going to pretend to be a couple, it's probably best not to call me 'brother' or 'Onii-chan'."

Yuki squeezed his hand slightly and replied in a theatrical tone: "Silly... The best part is that we're siblings."

Ryan felt the weight of the statement like a punch and thought: "Yuki, you're going to kill me with guilt."

Walking hand in hand, the two attracted curious and admiring glances. Yuki was clearly pleased, while Ryan, still a little uncomfortable, tried to ignore the murmurs around them. One sentence, however, made Yuki's stomach clench. "Look at that couple! They're beautiful! They match so well they even look like siblings!"

In Yuki's mind, the thought hammered: "Little do they know that we really are..."

While reflecting on the comments, Ryan pointed to a restaurant. "How about we go there?"

Yuki followed his finger and saw a restaurant specializing in spicy food. Her eyes sparkled as she replied adorably: "Yes! They say the spicy sauce here is the best in all of Tokyo!"

Upon entering, they noticed that the place was relatively empty. They chose a sofa against the wall, sitting side by side. Ryan tried to maintain a polite distance, but Yuki quickly adjusted herself, moving closer to him, resting her head on his shoulder.

He picked up the menu, trying to hide his embarrassment. "So, what are you going to order?"

Ignoring the question, Yuki rested her face in her hands and casually commented: "Grandpa brought me here today."

Ryan froze for a moment, looking at her seriously. "What did he tell you? Did something happen? Do you need me to go back in time? Are you in trouble?"

Yuki let out a light laugh, clearly relaxed. "Ahh, that makes me feel much more at ease!"

Ryan tilted his head, suspicious. "At ease? What do you mean?"

"Yes! Your reaction shows that you can save me from any trouble!"

Ryan frowned, letting out a long sigh. "You drop a bomb like that and then come up with that talk? What did the old man say, anyway?"

Yuki put a finger to her cheek, as if pondering, before smiling smugly. She rested her hand on Ryan's thigh and, in a voice full of mischief, replied: "He supported our relationship."

Ryan, without realizing it, applied so much force to the table that he broke it in half, drawing the attention of everyone in the restaurant. "W-wait! Did he really say that?!"

Noticing the looks around him, Ryan forced an awkward smile, putting his hand on Yuki's hair. "Sorry... I think I lost track because of this revelation."

It was at that moment that Yuki saw time distort before her eyes. The world rewound like a videotape. She was paralyzed for an instant, until excitement shone on her face. "Is... is this what you see when you use your powers?!"

Trying to contain her excitement, she murmured: "Wait. How do I remember this? Last time, it just seemed like you knew what was going to happen!"

Ryan gently squeezed her cheek, interrupting her thoughts with a provocative touch. "I passed some of my energy to you while I was touching your hair. That's why you remember. But I don't like using this often... it's quite tiring."

Yuki clenched her fists, completely enchanted. She looked like a child in front of her hero, her eyes shining. "You're soooo amazing, Onii-chan!"
