"Hey, you guys! Good morning, itâs morning! Wake up⦠GYAAAAAA!!?"
Early in the morning, Angu Ogu's scream echoed through the room.
What she saw in front of her wasâ¦
"Gu⦠canât breathe⦠bu-bu-buâ¦"
"Iroha is foaming at the mouth and dying!?"
It was me, being put in a choke sleeper by a half-asleep Ah-nee.
Panicked, Angu Ogu rushed over and started pulling at Ah-nee's arm.
"Sheâs not budging!? Hey, you idiot sister! Wake up already!"
"Snore⦠Iroha-chan⦠love you⦠mumble mumble"
"Oh, mom⦠Iâm coming to you nowâ¦"
"Calm down, Iroha!? Also, your mom is still alive, right!? Wake up, Ah-nee!"
Angu Ogu slapped Ah-neeâs cheeks back and forth.
Finally, she woke up with a "mumble?" and groggily looked around.
"Yawn⦠Oh, is it morning already? I feel like I had a good dream."
"Ah-nee, never mind that, let go of your arm!"
"I canât hold on⦠any longer⦠thud"
"Iroha~~~!?"
"Uh⦠did I⦠do something?"
As I lost consciousness, I made a vow.
Ah-nee, I will never forgive you! And Angu Ogu, who offered me as a sacrifice, youâre equally guilty!

"Hey, Iroha, cheer up!"
"I-Iâm sorry, Iroha-chan."
The three of us were having breakfast in the living room.
Well, it was technically morning⦠or rather, close to noon after everything that happened.
"⦠Hmph."
I turned away and silently ate my food.
Usually, Iâd sit next to Angu Ogu, but today I placed my chair a bit further away.
Last night and this morning had been a mess.
I couldnât sleep due to frustration, and just as I was finally dozing off, Ah-nee did that.
Thanks to her, I didnât get any sleep.
â¦Well, I did pass out, though!?
"Itâs all your fault, both of you!"
"Donât say that. Thanks for the meal, Iroha. Todayâs breakfast was delicious!"
"Right! When did Iroha-chan become such a good cook? Itâs unfair that Angu Ogu gets to eat this every day! I want seconds!"
"If you think flattery will get you anywhere, youâre wrong."
But, hearing that made me happy⦠wait, no!
Compliments wonât get you anything! Seriously!
"Really? Then how about this, a hug~!"
After finishing her meal, Angu Ogu came around and hugged me from behind.
Instantly, I let out a "Pigi!?" scream.
"Whatâs wrong, Iroha?"
"Agagaga! The muscle pain from yesterday!"
"Oh, sorry about that."
