Two hours later.
　The three of them were enjoying a moment of tea time at a stylish coffee shop. The terrace facing the main street was sunny and lively with a view of the street.

We bought a lot of stuff!
Hmmm. It was quite a good time.
"Yeah, yeah. ......

　The Crawford siblings look satisfied.
　Charlotte, on the other hand, looked unhappy. She looked pale and had barely touched her cake set.

"Mmm. What's the matter, Charlotte? Are you sure you haven't bought enough?
"The opposite!

　Charlotte raises her voice.
　The pile of paper bags behind the three of them. The bags were all of Charlotte's clothes, accessories, and shoes.

　They went to that store and many others to enjoy window shopping.
　That seemed to be the source of Charlotte's confusion.

She said, "I can't believe you bought so many things for me alone. ......!　Please be careful with your money!
"No, because it all looks good on you.

　Allen said matter-of-factly.

　No matter what you put on Charlotte, it always looked good on her.
　Whether it was feminine and soft, casual and easy to move in, or mature and innocent.

I want to see her like that again at home. It's like she bought it for me. So don't worry about it.
"Ugh. Ugh. ......

　For some reason, Charlotte's face turned red and she turned her head away.
　Thanks to her, Allen twisted his head.

"What's with that reaction?
"No, it's amazing how natural you are.

　Eruka chuckles and takes a bite of her crepe.
　It's a hearty crepe with a lot of fruit and cream, but the fact that she doesn't stain her mouth at all shows that she's a girl.

But you don't have much taste, do you? What's with that skirt you recommended? It's too long.
"What?　What's wrong with a skirt long enough to cover your knees? It's too short even for you.
Are you old?　Oh, no, no, no. This is why people who don't understand youth fashion are like this.
It's a lot better than your lascivious taste, don't you think?

　Allen and Eruca stared at each other.
　Charlotte begins to panic thanks to this.

You can't do that, you know. You're brother and sister, you should get along.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, but this is nothing to fight about.

　Allen smiled to reassure Charlotte.
　This is the kind of exchange we used to have when we were at home. Eruka smiles too.

"Yes, yes. If we get into a serious fight, you'll see blood.
I don't want to see that. ......
But fighting, ...... that's not so bad.
Are you saying it's a bad idea?
Mm-hmm.

　Charlotte is not very good at communicating.
　It might be a little better if she did something that mimicked a fight. I thought it might be a good idea to practice abusing Allen, like the sandbagging the other day,.......

No, I don't think we should ...... fight.
"What? Why?

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

It's because I'm going to be really depressed.
You look like a tough guy, but you're a glass heart in a weird way.
"No, I wouldn't!

　Charlotte shouted in panic and turned a serious face to Allen.

"Fighting is not a bad thing, it's a bad thing. Okay?
"All right, all right.

　Allen chuckled and nodded.
