I arrived at Rika’s house.

Ding dong…♪

Rika…I wonder if she’s okay.

She hasn’t returned my LINE messages either…what if something happens…

I want to see her healthy face soon.

Clink.

“Rika!”

It was my sister.

“Dahlia…”

My step-sister Dahlia opened the door and appeared.

“Where’s Rika?”

If Rika hasn’t shown up, does that mean something terrible has happened!?

This is terrible!

“Calm down, Onii-chan. Rika-tan is safe.”

“Ah…ah.”

I was so exhausted that I collapsed on the spot without thinking.

I’m glad… nothing happened…

“You must have been worried.”

“Yeah… I was relieved to know she's safe.”

“…Onii-chan,” Dahlia said with a slightly serious look on her face.

“Do you believe she’s safe?”

“Why? Dahlia said she was safe. So she’s safe, right?”

If Dahlia says so, I can believe her.

Dahlia then makes a sad face, then…

She smiles.

“I’m glad you believe me, Onii-chan.”

Dahlia somehow emphasizes the “Onii-chan”.

I wonder what that’s about.
