I knock on the door first to make sure my sister inside"Please come in" a soft voice can be heard from inside.
I opened the door and come inside. Inside the room, I see a girl in her twenties is basking in the sunlight near a window. She sits on the chair and sewing something. She looks glad when to see me.
"Henry! Thank G.o.d you"re alright. I"m so worried when to hear you got accident"
"I really have an accident but I"m okay now sister"
She put what she sewing on the table and walk approaching me finally she give me a hug. I can feel a warm feeling from her hug, so I hug her back until she releases her hug.
"C"mon Henry let sit and talk. I feel like it"s been ages since our last talk"
Her tiny hands drag me to sit near her. After we"re sitting down I take the chance to look at her thoroughly.
Her skin which already white is pale like a plant that lack of water, her cheek is sunken and some faint black circle also appear in her eyes. Her body looks so thin and frail that wind can blow her away. Just from this feature, I know there"s something wrong with her body.
"Sister, you look thinner, are you sick?"
"I"m alright Henry like you see I can sit and talk with you now"
"But your body looks like…um…did sister does not eat properly? It seems you do not eat a lot lately"
She sighed before answer it
"Nothing can"t escape from your eyes, huh? Yeah, you"re right. I don"t eat much lately"
"But if you don"t eat, you"ll get sick easily sister"
"I try to eat but the food is barely palatable in my mouth. I"ve tried to force it but ended with throw it up"
My sister is already picky-eater since child age, in addition to this cost-cutting policy from my father make her more difficult to eat.
"Is the taste not suitable for you, sister?"
"Hu um. The taste is so plain that I feel like eaten fabric"
"If I bring delicious food, will you eat that?"
She"s smiling hearing that.
"Do you want to spend your money to buy me food Henry?"
"No, I do not buy food for you. I make delicious food for you"
She"s laughing when hears that,
"You make food? Really?"
"What? Don"t you believe in your brother words?"
"But you hardly come to the kitchen, Henry, it"s hard to believe if you can cook"
"What if I can?"
"If you can do that, I swear I will never be doubted your words again"
"Okay, deal"
I"m still talking with my sister for some time later. While talking I take a glance at my sister to make an a.s.sessment. I think my sister is not bad looking, only because of she"s lack of nutrient that makes her like a sickly person. I wonder what she would look alike if she able to eat properly and have enough nutrient to nurture her body. If I can access my backpack maybe I can cook something for her that can raise her appet.i.te. But to do that, I must learn how to pull it out from my inventory.
When I bade her goodbye to continue my visit to my other sisters, she gives me a hug again and asks me to visit her often, which I promise her to do that. Hey, don"t think something wrong with me hugging my sister. It"s different from when I"m hugging Clara or Claire, it"s a pure and sincere hug between sister-brothers. After that, I"m visiting my step-mother with my step-sister. Although I"m not that close with them compared with the relation between me and my sister Eliza, they welcome me and receive me warmly. Although they"re my step-family I don"t feel much distance from them, which make me think my father has a good eye for choosing a woman for his wife. My step sister is still a kid, the oldest, Mary is 9 years old, Karen is 7 years old and Christine is 6 years old. Look at them with their kid"s cuteness reminds me with my own sister Miyu, I wonder if she will feel lonely after I"m gone. Unconsciously I start to treat them like I used to treat Miyu. I spend some time to play with them until the time show time for lunch which makes me have to say goodbye to them. Like my sister Eliza, they also ask me to visit them and play with them again.
