Can I Still Be Your Heroine Even Though I'm Your Teacher?-Chapter 1Volume 2 . - My First Love Turned Out to Be My Brother

My First Love Turned Out to Be My Brother 1

I stopped Tenjō-san to explain the situation once again.

Kaguya and I were sitting in seiza across the table from each other.

The room is filled with a slightly ‘shuraba’ atmosphere.

Tenjō-san’s expression was stern, her arms crossed in front of her.

“Yuu-kun, my legs hurt, can I sit differently?”

“Just stay put!”

“Don’t you think your pizza will get cold?”

“Introductions first. Clear up the misunderstanding quickly! Now!”

Kaguya pouted but quickly shifted her gaze to look up at Tenjō-san.

“Nice to meet you, I’m Yuu-kun’s ex-girlfriend!”

“Don’t lie at a time like this! I’ll kick you out right now!”

I lost my temper at her harmful remark.

Ahh, Tenjō-san’s eyes look dead.

“It’s just a joke. Don’t be mad, okay?”

Kaguya pleaded while grabbing the hem of my shirt.

“That’s not something to joke about. Start over!”

“I’m Nishiki Kaguya! Yuu-kun has been in your care.”

Not intimidated by the stunning beauty Tenjō Reiyu, my sister greeted her with a casual attitude.

I was impressed by her bold attitude without any sense of propriety. No, maybe it’s simply because she’s still young.

Listening to her made me nervous.

“She’s your stepsister, right?”

Tenjō-san was still not convinced.

“Yes. Legally, she’s my sister. She’s not an ex-girlfriend or a fling.”

I emphasized it as much as I could.

“I can understand that you don’t look alike because you’re not blood-related, but… aren’t you strangely a bit too close?”

It would be a pleasing scene if a toddler was the one who clung to me, but it’s a bit much for a high school sophomore brother and a middle school third-year sister.

“That’s something I’m also very concerned about. No matter how many times I warn her, she doesn’t listen.”

“Ehh, we’re siblings, so it’s fine, right?”

Kaguya clung to my arm, unconcerned even if Tenjō-san is there.

“You seem to be quite affectionate with each other.”

Tenjō-san frowned but seemed to be holding back her true feelings.

I unwrapped Kaguya’s arm and faced Tenjō-san.

I ignore Kaguya who’s complaining next to me that her legs are numb.

Close your legs properly, your underwear is about to show.

“Then, why did your stepsister suddenly come to visit?”

There’s a thorn in her words.

“She brought souvenirs from a family trip. Without an appointment.”

Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.

I point to a paper bag of sweets.

If I had known from the start that Kaguya was going to show up unannounced, I would have asked to change the pizza delivery time to avoid running into her.

“It’s not some elaborate alibi scheme, is it?”

“Look, I wouldn’t stoop so low as to pretend she’s my stepsister just to cover up a lie. She’s genuinely my family! Besides, do I look like an idiot who would bring her along knowing you were coming?”

I give a sincere explanation with all my heart.

“Maybe you’re the type of person who enjoys that kind of thrill.”

“Too skeptical!”

“People have all sorts of hobbies, you know.”

She has quite the imagination.

Maybe she’s unexpectedly very curious about that sort of thing…

That in itself is quite ‘thrilling’.

“What would you do if I were someone with such peculiar tastes?”

I ask back with a mix of exasperation and a serious face.

“Everyone has their own tastes, so I wouldn’t blindly judge them.”

Her attempt to maintain a neutral stance is very teacher-like.

“And what would you do if I were that kind of person?”

“That, well, I would be, um… first, I would carefully examine the requests and consider what could be done within reason.”

She answers in a muffled, small voice.

Her lack of confidence is the complete opposite of her usual clear and assertive way of speaking at school.

Wait, does this mean she’d be willing to accommodate depending on the request!? No problem even if I go for a direct attack with a man’s desires!?

This is dangerous. Just letting my imagination run wild is enough to get me——excited, but I must restrain myself in front of my stepsister.

After all, I have to maintain some dignity as a brother.

“Do you still not believe what I’m saying?”

I ask again, relaxing my tone to a more neutral one.

“Your stepsister is supposed to be a junior high schooler, right? Doesn’t she seem too mature?”

“That’s what people often tell me!”

Kaguya cheerfully admits.

Tenjō-san is considerate, wrapping her words in euphemism.

As a teacher who has dealt with many teenagers, Tenjō-san wouldn’t normally be so guarded with most girls.

I understand what she is trying to say in a roundabout way.

My stepsister Kaguya is, how should I put it——a very cunning girl.

The reason lies in the gap between her inside and her appearance.

She appears to be a beautiful girl when she’s silent but she’s thoughtless and foolish inside.

She’s moody and acts impulsively, often doing unexpected things without hesitation. She doesn’t know the meaning of restraint and talks to anyone and everyone as if they were friends with no sense of personal space.

Inherited from her late mother, her face is well-defined yet still retains some childlike innocence.

Her limbs are slender, befitting her age, and her physique is quite average.

Yet, every gesture she makes is seductive, giving her a sultriness uncharacteristic of a third-year junior high schooler.

She stirs men’s hearts with her childlike innocence and bewitching gestures.

At best, she’s someone who is easily liked and doted upon by others. At worst, she’s an indiscriminate heart-stealer.

Any man who talks to Kaguya even once might mistakenly think she’s fallen for him.

With that suggestive demeanor, she continuously lures people into the swamp of love.

As far as I know, there was a time when she received confessions from five people at once, and without her knowledge, a hellish scene unfolded.

Since she herself has no such intentions, there has yet to be a victor.

Nishiki Kaguya is a troublemaker who stirs up men’s pure hearts, and to those close to her, she’s someone who constantly keeps us on edge, worrying she might get involved in some strange trouble.

Her preference for adult-like, gal-style clothing with exposed necklines and shoulders also makes her an easy target for pick-up attempts when walking in the city.

I can’t count how many times I’ve had to hurriedly chase off someone who approached her the moment I looked away.

“Your concerns are certainly valid.”

My expression distorts as memories of past hardships resurface.

Determined to clear my name, I take out my smartphone and show a family photo taken when Kaguya entered junior high school.

My stepfather, mother, I, and Kaguya are lined up in front of the school gate.

“So she really is your stepsister. Wow, junior high schooler Yuunagi-kun looks so young and cute.”

Upon accepting that Kaguya is my stepsister, Tenjō Reiyu visibly relaxes.

My homeroom teacher, neighbor, and the object of my affection finally regains her dazzling smile like the sun.

“I’m glad you believe me.”

I feel relieved to have proven my innocence.

“Hey-hey, Yuu-kun. You said earlier you don’t have a girlfriend, right? Aren’t you making a really big excuse for this Onee-san? Could she possibly be your lover?”

“Unfortunately not. Though—it would be great if such a beautiful girl would become my girlfriend.”

Glancing at Tenjō-san, I see her shyly looking down.

“—Eh, don’t tell me, friends with benefits? Did you have an erotic Golden Week!?”

” “Wrong——!!!” “

Tenjō-san and I simultaneously deny it.

Besides, you’re just a junior high schooler, so don’t use words like ‘friends with benefits’.

Our parents would foam at the mouth and faint if they’d heard that.

For them, Kaguya is a precious treasure.
