Bab 12: Chapter 12: Shouko's decision
1 month later,
It's currently the end of a school day, and I had just walked Shouko and our sisters home. She's a lot better now, but she seems to stick close to me a tad too much...not that I mind.
After reaching home, I realised that I still have the two tokens available for spins. 'System, use both gacha spin now.'
[Spinning...]
[Host has gained basic teaching proficiency (0/100)]
[Host has gained intermediate swimming proficiency (0/300)]
"Huh..what do you mean by teaching? What am I teaching?" I asked the system curiously.
[Host is able to teach more efficiently in any subjects. Be it normal academic subjects such as mathematics, Japanese or history, or sports related subjects such as basketball or swimming. The proficiency increases the more you teach in a subject, the greater the variety of subjects you teach, and how well you can convey your teachings. As the proficiency increases, the better you can convey your teachings, and the easier is it for your students to learn from you.]
"Tsk...it's not really useful for me right now. What am I supposed to do with his skill?" It seems that my luck is not really good today. 'Maybe I could teach Shouko to increase my proficiency? Would it work?'
The rest of the day went past as usual, and soon came tomorrow with the school day going by in a breeze. The only thing that I noticed was that Shouko kept glancing at me, more than usual this time. 'She's got something to tell me...' I thought to myself.
She didn't say anything however, until the end of the day, during our usual walk home, after sending our sisters home, she stopped in her tracks outside of our houses. 'It seems it's something important. However, it seems that she's happy though?'
I was surprised, as I overheard the conversation between her mother and mine, wanting to move overseas due to having a higher pay. I thought Shouko would be moving together with her mother. 'Seems like she's really happy to be together with her mother.' I'm glad that her relationship with her mother had improved to this point.
Shouko: "Fuutarou-kun, I've got something to tell you..." Her body was trembling, with a slight...anticipation in her eyes?
Fuutarou: "Sure, go on..." I encouraged her softly. I was about to cry from happiness since her relationship with her mother is getting better everyday, something that didn't happen in the anime..
Shouko: "Well...my mother got a better job...she says it pays better...but...its far away, and...and..." She stop her sentence halfway.
Fuutarou: "It's ok Shouko-chan...I'll always be here for you whenever you need me..." I walked towards her and gave her a light hug, which she reciprocated but a lot tighter.
Shouko: "Thank you...and so I'll..."
Fuutarou: "Don't worry, no matter how far you will go, I will always..."
Shouko: "So I'll be living in your house from now on!!" She gave me a bright a smile and didn't wait for my reply before skipping back home.
And so our dear mc is still frozen outside his own home, with his brain frozen.
"EEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Our mc screams his lungs out before rushing to Shouko's house. "Shouko-chan, what do you mean living in our house? I thought you would be following your mother overseas?" I rushed straight to her room and saw her in the middle of ...

Studying. (Psych! What do perverts and lolicons think she, a 11 year old is in the middle of?)
"Eh? I didn't say anything about moving overseas with my mother though?" She tilts her head sideways trying to figure out what I mean.
"Isn't it common sense to follow your only parent overseas? Don't tell me she was just going to leave you here alone." I asked her with slight anger. How can any parent be so irresponsible?
"Oh, my mother gave me a choice since your dad gave us permission to live with you guys if we choose to since she trusts your father. Plus, your mother can take care of us as well." Shouko replied.
"We? Don't tell me..."
"Yep! Both Yuzuru and I will be staying in your place."
"And my parents never told us any of this!"
"Ehh...so you don't accept us staying in your place....?" Shouko asked me with tears brimming in her eyes.
"Oh no no no, of course not. I will always accept you in my place." As I quickly denied her claim.
Shouko: "Yay! You can't go back on your words! Promise?" Here eyes immediately dried up, making it seem as if there was never tears to begin with.
'Damn, why am I so weak against her puppy eyes' I grumbled to myself as I promised her.
And so 1 week after she told me that the siblings were going to live with us, Shouko's mother went overseas for her work, accompanied by my dad who was also going away for another 'business' trip. My mother didn't care that her husband was going on a trip with another woman. Maybe she trusted her husband that much?
Raiha was very excited as she could now spend time with Yuzuru 24/7. Since we didn't have enough beds, Raiha and Yuzuru shared the bed since they were small enough to do so, while my mother, Shouko and I got 1 each.
Our house has 1 living room, 1 kitchen and 4 bedrooms. Nothing special about it. Each of us got bedroom for ourselves (except Raiha and Yuzuru since they shared a single bed).
I think Shouko is getting smarter, she knows all of my daily habits and my likes and dislikes. She even knows about my strengths and weaknesses. So most of the time I spend with Shouko will just be her talking while I listen. I'm more of a listener rather than a talker anyway.
They managed to sell their house for a decent amount of money, and they left my mother some of it to take care of the three girls. And so from today onwards, the Nishimiya siblings had officially moved into my house.

-----------------
A/N If you guys didn't know or realise, proficiency can be raised by doing the specific action or getting it from gacha. So for example, the more you practice the piano, the grandmaster piano proficiency can be raised or you can get 200x proficiency points in piano to increase it as well.
The higher the proficiency, the harder it is to raise it and the greater the difference. That means 10 peak master proficiency can't play as good as 1 grandmaster proficiency.
