Gravity Girl Shining

How is this going?

Shiina Maki's mind raced, memories of last night flashing through her mind like a kaleidoscope.

Last night, Shiina Riki went home angrily and left a message for himself.

"Sister, if that guy Uehara Hibiki comes looking for you, tell him to get lost."

Immediately afterwards, Lixi hid in the room and saw no one. The sound of her throwing things could be heard through the wall.

Then, around ten o'clock in the evening, Uehara Hibiki came and knocked on the door. After being politely declined, he wandered downstairs of Shiina's house for a long time before leaving.

Then, around a little after dawn, I heard Lixi still angry in the middle of the night, so I advised her to go to bed early and not to hurt herself.

At that time, I was still worried that my sister's first love would turn into a big failure and whether she needed her sister to have a life conversation with her.

Finally, time went back to the present. Just one morning had passed, and the sister who had wanted to tear Uehara Hibiki into pieces yesterday was actually following him back home like a docile kitten, and she looked so embarrassed that she had never seen her like that before.

It is clear.

Riki has reconciled with Uehara-kun.

As expected of young people, they quarreled violently but made up quickly.

She originally thought that her sister was so angry because she found out that Uehara Hibiki was cheating on her. After all, Li Xi's condition last night was like the end of the world.

Now it seems that I was overthinking it. It was just an ordinary quarrel between lovers.

Mostly just minor conflicts.

"Hey, brother-in-law, welcome, welcome."

Maki quickly adjusted her expression and put on her usual mischievous smile.

"And Lixi, do you want me to go out for a while to give you some time?"

"No!!!"

However, unlike the previous times, Riki's reaction was unexpectedly intense. She practically jumped out from behind Uehara Hibiki to protest, her eyes frantically shifting between Uehara Hibiki and Shiina Maki. Maki keenly noticed that Riki even subconsciously took a half step back, putting some distance between them.

It was as if she was afraid that Uehara Hibiki would actually do something.

This reaction... is wrong.

Shiina Maki narrowed her eyes, examining the two men. Riki's lips were redder than usual, and her lipstick was the wrong color. As for Uehara Hibiki, his collar was buttoned tightly, as if he was hiding something.

Another point is, today is Sunday, where have they been all morning?

As the older sister by four years, Shiina Maki understood something instantly and then looked away nervously.

"Then please come in, brother-in-law."

Maki stepped aside to make way, trying to maintain a calm tone.

When the door to Riki's room was quietly closed, Shiina Maki covered her face with her hands.

"Father, Mother, your eldest daughter has actually been overtaken by Li Xi in finding a man."

The older leftover woman (self-proclaimed) Shiina Maki lost to her own sister for the first time.

Albeit in weird territory.

……

"It's all your fault, sister must have misunderstood something!"

As soon as he closed the bedroom door, Li Xi angrily threw his shoulder bag at Uehara Hibiki. The white bag drew an arc in the air and was easily caught by Uehara Hibiki, and even spun it beautifully in his hand.

"It's not my business?"

Uehara Hibiki sat directly on the bed, put his shoulder bag aside, and a subtle curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You reacted too much, and onee-sama saw that you had something to hide."

"That's your fault, actually. You actually let me use my hands this morning..."

Shiina Riki only managed to finish her rebuttal halfway because she was too shy to continue. Those blushing memories flashed back in her mind, making her want to find a hole to crawl into.

"In short, it's all your fault!"

Shiina Riki decisively used her girlfriend privileges and started to act unreasonable.

"Okay, it's all my fault. Get ready to compose the music, Lixi. Where's the lyrics book for Deng?"

"It's in my bag, you can find it yourself."

Shiina Riki turned and walked towards the computer desk, pressing the power button with extra force, as if this could vent the shame and anger in his heart.

Uehara Hibiki shrugged helplessly, opened her bag, and quickly found Deng's notebook, but other than that...

There was also a familiar small pink package lying quietly at the bottom of the bag.

Shiina Riki, you tsundere woman.

You say you don't want to, but you've already prepared the props in private.

"what are you doing?"

Shiina Riki turned around and asked, "Why are you taking so long to find a note?"

"nothing."

Uehara Hibiki smiled brightly, then shook his right hand lightly, and the small package fell from his bag onto the bed.

Shiina Riki's brain suddenly crashed.

"No... no... it's not what you think! My sister forced this on me the last time you came to my house!"

Huh? The intuitive skill prompt is actually true!

Uehara Hibiki felt very sorry. He originally thought that Riki was about to come to his senses, but... it would be nice to take the opportunity to tease him.

“I understand—”

Uehara Hibiki deliberately dragged out the tone.

"It was all forced upon me by my elder sister. It has nothing to do with Lixi. After all, Lixi has been carrying this thing with him and has never been willing to throw it away."

"I just...!"

Shiina Riki was in a state of shame. After all, so many days had passed, she could have just thrown it away, but for some reason... just...

Looking at the girl sitting motionless in front of the computer desk, Uehara Hibiki took the opportunity to step forward and hold her face.

"Lixi, you're not good. As punishment, I'm going to kiss you hard, the same way I did last night."

"!"

Now there was only fear in Shiina Riki's eyes.

The memories of last night came flooding back like a tide. The kiss that made her legs go weak and her mind go blank, the kiss that she had been secretly savoring all morning...

I can’t kiss you anymore. If I get kissed again, my brain will go crazy.

But, at that time, it was so comfortable! I wanted to continue!

Two conflicting thoughts were fighting in his mind. Shiina Riki was unable to respond and could only watch Uehara Hibiki's face getting closer and closer.

Until their lips touched.

then.

My brain starts to race...?

Didn't fly.

Shiina Riki blinked her eyes desperately, feeling the warmth on her lips. Although it was very comfortable, it did not have the magical power that made her soul leave her body.

"Lixi, what are you thinking about? Didn't you ask me to temporarily suppress that foul kissing skill?"

"But the way you said it last night."

"Because we kissed more than once last night."

Uehara Hibiki grinned and bit her ear.

"But Li Xi said no, but is he longing for it in his heart?"

Realizing that he had been fooled, Shiina Riki once again burst into a shameful cry, which caused Uehara Hibiki to laugh triumphantly.

Delicious, so delicious.

After a few minutes, when she regained her senses, Uehara Hibiki handed her a tissue in time so that she could wipe the moisture from the corners of her eyes.

"It's all your fault! I thought you were going to..."

Okay, blame me again.

Uehara Hibiki pleaded innocence.

"Lixi, you don't understand me yet. Although it's very embarrassing, it won't delay business. What we need to do this afternoon is to compose music well. As for the rest... kissing is enough."

"Will you be so easily satisfied?"

Instead, Shiina Riki felt aggrieved and looked at Uehara Hibiki as if he was looking at a sweet-talking liar.

"It's so satisfying. After all, victory is the most important thing to me."

As if by magic, Uehara Hibiki produced a notebook from behind his back and handed it to Riki. His tone instantly became serious.

“So, my first LIVE must be a grand victory!”

He was a frivolous playboy just a second ago, and turned into a serious musician in the blink of an eye. Shiina Riki couldn't help but be dazzled. Both looks of Uehara Hibiki made her heart beat.

Don't let your imagination wander! Focus! Prepare to compose!

After Shiina Riki forced himself to calm down, he took the notes and discovered...

Three books?

Shiina Riki opened the book with suspicion. One of the books had lyrics for "Life-saving," another had lyrics for "Wheel Fu Yu," and another had...

"Actually, I've already finished composing one-third of the music for Lun Fu Yu. After all, Deng finished writing the lyrics three days ago."

"Huh? You didn't tell me!"

"Uh, so much has happened in the past three days, and you're in that state again..."

Shiina Riki thought back to the past few days. Indeed, first he met Xiangzi in Asukayama Park and angrily scolded Su Shi. Then, he was reminded by Hai Ling that Uehara Hibiki was having a harem, causing a lot of trouble...

There is absolutely no time or attention for composing!

"Okay, I won't bother with it."

But Shiina Riki seemed to have thought of something and suddenly started hesitating again.

"Speaking of Su Shi, there is actually one more thing..."

"what?"

"Actually, the first time Su Shi found Xiangzi, it was me who told her that Xiangzi might appear in Fujimizaka. That was before Golden Week, when we met Xiangzi."

Shiina Riki's eyes wandered, but he finally decided to face Hara Hibiki head-on.

"At first, I thought that as long as Su Shi met Xiangzi and Xiangzi rejected her, she would completely give up. I didn't expect it to turn out like this... It was all caused by me."

"that's all?"

Seeing Shiina Riki's uneasy look, Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but hold her hand. He and Xiangzi had known about this for a long time. After all, it was impossible for Xiangzi not to be suspicious when Suyo rushed directly to Fujimizaka to block people.

"It's okay, it's happened, and it has a happy ending, that's all."

"Thanks... No, it's nothing!"

Shiina Riki pulled her hand out and turned it aside to prevent Uehara Hibiki from seeing the blush on her face, but her earlobe, which was also covered in blush, revealed it.

Li Xi blushed.

"Stop nagging! Let me take a good look at your new music score!"

After a while, Shiina Riki put down his notes.

"This song has such a strong bass... You actually used it this way."

"After all, it's a song written for Su Shi, so the bass should be a little stronger. I think she's happy to express all her feelings in the song."

Uehara Hibiki looked at the music score and couldn't help but smile.

"We've had enough bass jokes, it's time for everyone to hear some serious bass."
