234 Recollection 12 Loretta



It's flying!
 It's flying!

 Tacos are selling like hot cakes!

"Loretta! Here are four tacos!"
"Then I'm five! Loretta, as soon as possible."
"Haha! Ketch! Ketch! Loretta! I have ten!"
"Ah, gentlemen," Can you eat that much?"
"""I'll eat! As long as it's made by Loretta!"""
"You've got enough of them to make me sick!"

 a main street in the 42nd Avenue
 The three handsome old men are in agony pretending to be cute.
 Honestly, I'm scared.

"Ojisan, you always buy only one."
"I'm going to buy a lot today because I have an older sister."
"Sister, popular".
"Hey, sisters!? What are you saying, Ojisan? I'm so hungry today..."What?"
"Oh! Oh! That's right! I'm hungry."
"I don't mean to eat the tacos that Loretta made while gloating!"

 I'm embarrassed by Ojisan.
 Hmm...it's kind of cute.

"Then I'll do my best to make it!"
"Loretta! We woodcutters, when we say, 'Let's do our best!' put 'Pep! Pep!' on the palm of our hands, and spit and sip!"
"Hey, hey! You can't do that, can you?"
`No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I can't help but look forward to it!'
"Right! Right!"
`Oh, my God!'
"Spitting is not allowed for hygiene reasons."
"'Right~'"

 These old men are cheerful.

 He once told me, "I use the 42 wards because I want to see you."
 It's kind of ticklish.
 I can't believe I'm being liked... ...by people.
 Of course, I don't want to do that at all, but I don't want to make a profit by taking advantage of them, and I don't want to get carried away by them and get carried away with them.

"My sister!"
"Oh, my neighbor!"
"Hi!"
"Hello!"

 I'm happy to hear from you with a smile.
 because we...

 I was originally a slum.

 In the past, everyone looked away, looked displeased when they spoke to me, and had no work to do.
 I tried my best to make a smile, and at least when my younger brothers and sisters grew up, they were treated unfairly.
 I thought you'd think that if I worked hard, the hamsters would be useful.

 But it didn't work at all...

"Yes, Ojisan, Takosu."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Extra charge!"
"Oh, my God! I'm a shrewd fellow!"
"That's not right, is it, my sister?"
"Yes! I'm not sure about that's right.

 --the fact that the sisters are laughing like this now, and the younger brothers are allowed to take part in a relatively large task????

"Well, you're doing your best."
"Oh...!"

 --all thanks to your brother.

"My brother!"
"Old man!"
"I'm doing my best, praise me!"

 My sisters flock to my brother.
 Our boys, male and female, love their brother.

 ... of course. My eldest daughter, too.

"Look, look, don't keep the guests waiting. Customer service!
"Yes!"
"You'll see me doing my best!"
"I feel like I'm going on.
"It's coming out,"

 My sisters are going to go crazy and start making tacos.
 Huh!? I have to do my best too!
 The old men wanted to eat my tacos.

 ...but my brother came all the time... with a flash.

 When I looked at him, he closed his eyelids for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, he opened his eyes.

"Will you show me your skill?"

 It was a bit strange to say it off like a martial arts master. It was dignified and dignified.
 That's it!

"I'll show you! My magnificent taco...!"

 When I tried to get the seasoned meat between the tacos, the chopsticks slipped and the meat popped...Catch it with your left hand without thinking you should waste it!
 ...oh!? I can't give the customer anything I touched with my bare hands!? And he said, "Oh!!"

"Oh!"
"A splendid snack!"
`Oh, my dear!'
"Good nerve in front of your brother!"

 Huh!?

"No, no! This was an accident and I had no choice but to... Oh, my gosh! Don't pinch me silently! I'm sorry! I'm going to stop doing splendid tricks and make it normal!"

 an older brother who burgles ...I'm scared of my face.
 "Ojisan gazing at it as if ""Niyaya, Loretta's half-crying face is healing…""… In a different way, my face is scary."

 Then I made the tacos I ordered and left the rest of the service to my younger sisters to have a little time to talk to them.
 It's my sister's authority. It's a privilege.

 ...it's time to play.

"Oppa, ... well, what do you think?"

 Did you remember me?"
 I wanted to hear that, but I was scared, so I didn't know what to say.

"Oh, that's all right."
"...what? Well?"
"The quality of the finished product is fine, but it's a little tricky. There's still a lot to waste, you know."

 ...what!?
 You're answering about my work!?
 Not there, when I asked, "How's it going?"

"Well, there's a customer coming for you, isn't there?"
"Yes! There are still a lot of fans!"
"You're a hidden fan."
"Why are you hiding? I want you to be confident about your fans."
"Stupid, you! What would you do if you were bullied?"
"You can't be bullied!"

 Everyone's cute Loretta!?

 That's not the case!

"So, um... uh... the name, and so on."
"Are they younger sisters? Don't be silly. Please make a list."
"Don't be silly!?"

 If you write a list of the names of your brothers and sisters, it will surely be a thick book like a blunt instrument.
 And it will continue to increase before it's finished!?

 that…
 I'm sure you haven't remembered your brother's evasion.
 You're playing around like that on purpose so as not to hurt me.
 He's a kind brother.

 ...it's kind of lonely, though.

"Well..."

 There was a gentle voice, and when I looked... my brother was looking over here.
 I might have seen your sunken face...

"Don't look like that, Chikubina,"
"That's not me!? Defamation is a good thing! I don't have a nipple image!"
"Oshirina".
"It's not your buttocks!"
"Occirina,"
"What kind of medicine is it? It's definitely good for hemorrhoids, isn't it?"
"That's you,"
"No! I've always denied it!"

 and it seemed to me that he was deliberately flirting with me to hurt me!
 He's such a big brother!

"Poooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Oh, as expected, cheek-bags!" Don't be so puffy."

 My brother is going to poke my swollen cheeks.
 No, it's not a cheek bag. It's just a cheek.
 I won't be in a good mood if I do that...... well... I'm in trouble because I'm kind of happy with this kind of contact.

"Why don't we talk about the past?"

 Old story...
 Talk about the past... talk about a lot of memories with me... will you try to remember me? Big brother...

There used to be Jizo called Kasa Jizo.'
"Wow! That's a crying guy! I won't listen to it today!"

 When I hear about Kasa Jizo, my eyes swell red for half a day. I'm crying a lot.
 I'm at work, so that's a problem!

"I want you to talk about something else."
"Another story......."
`You know, some memories or impressive scenes with me!'
"………………...especially."
"There must be something!? I'm desperately looking for it!"
"Oh! The rice balls at that time were delicious.""I don't know when! I'm eating rice balls!"

 Oh, my gosh!
 My brother bullies me like that right away!
 I wonder if my reaction was funny, but I'm holding my stomach and laughing.
 Mmm! I'm mean.

 ...but as usual, I feel a little relieved.

`There is!'
`My dear!'
"Dear me!"

 My sisters are serving customers happily.
 I'm not allowed to work until I'm nine years old.
 Everyone in the single‐digit age group wants to be nine years old soon.
 Until then, I can only help you with church or Yodamari-tei.
 It's like cleaning and weeding.

 So, everyone works hard when they turn nine years old and get a job.

 And at the age of twelve, you can get a more advanced 'technical' job.
 Now that I've come this far, I've got a look of respect. It's the object of admiration. I'm a senior citizen.

 There are only a few people over the age of twelve, so that's more of a necessity.

 And my eldest daughter, who is turning sixteen this year, is the regular waitress of the Yodamari-tei!
 I'm the main member!
 You and Magdachy can run the restaurant together!
 It's amazing!

 ...and yet they don't respect me very much.

 I'm sure my brothers and sisters are following me because they're playing with me. ... well...

"Don't work happily."
"That's the only advantage,"

 My brother looks at my sisters with his squinted eyes.
 with an overprotective eye like a real brother

"I didn't have a job until a year ago."

 It wasn't just a job that didn't exist.
 There was no money, no hope for the future.

 My brothers and sisters didn't laugh like that.

 In order to protect their own homes, they dug pitfalls, trained themselves, and carried dangerous weapons to 'eliminate the enemy'

 But now I hold mulberry and carpenter's tools in my hand, and I'm engaged in good work.
 As an elder, I am very happy to see this change in my siblings.


 That's all thanks to my brother.


 Because my brother spoke to me... because he saved my brothers and sisters... because he protected us, we have now.
 The present opens up the future.

 So my future is all for my brother.

 Even if my brother forgets me... I'm ready to live for him.
 I've already decided.

 I had an incredible, unbearable, immeasurable happiness from my brother.

 This time I'm going to return my happiness to my brother.

 No matter how many times you start from scratch.
 Even if I were to become a man of no value to my brother...

"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Oh, my gosh... Well, in fact, Pow... the girl who is the shop's signature is in a strange good mood, and I'm sure something good has happened."

 I'm a liar.
 My heart and mouth talk about different things.

"Oh, then you mean fruity beast sausages."
"Fruity? Interesting!"

 I'll tell you a silly story.
 Loretta-chan can be what everyone thinks if you just laugh.

"Oh my gosh! After hearing about it, I want to eat it! I'm going to buy it right away.
"I suppose you're still at work.
"It's over in no time.
"It's not released yet."
"If you ask the master to do it, it's one shot!"
"... he'll get in trouble again, not the master."
`Well... that's a little scary,'

 Pretend to cover your ears and close your eyelids. in one's arms

 When you're about to cry, you can't cry if you make a mistake like this.
 No matter how much your heart cries, if you smile with your face, no one will realize.

 That's right
 It's good to keep me in this dark place.
 I'm sure you'll hate it if your brother finds out loud.
 I don't like being disliked more than being forgotten. ... in my case


 I don't like... ...it's really hard.
 But I still had to force myself to smile... ...in fact, quite... it was hard.

 I felt like my shoulders were losing strength... I couldn't help but bow.
 at that time...

"Oh, there's trash on it."
"Huh? Where is it?"

 Suddenly, my brother pointed to my head and said,
 Garbage shouldn't be on the heads of restaurant idols. If you don't remove it immediately...

"Don't move. I'll get you one."
"Yes, yes,"

 Keep your head down a little and stop moving as I was told.
 It's a bit of a tough position, but it's just a little patience.

 My brother came one step closer to me...I patted my hair.

"Are you thinking about anything else?"

 he said, stroking my head.

"He... oh, uh... oh, brother?"
"Well... Is it around here?"

 I patted my head, patted my cheek... gently touched the back of my head... ...and hugged me."Oh, my gosh!"
"Don't force yourself to speak strangely."

 No, I don't want to overdo it...

"I know most of what you're thinking."
"What...?"

 Do you know...?

 No, no, that's impossible.
 I'm a master of smiling. No one can read my true heart...

"You did a great job, sir. Alone, hide your true self... so that you won't find out that you're a hamster. so that I may not realize my true feelings..."

 I can hear your brother's heartbeat.
 And mixed with that'

"That's why I've worked so hard. So you don't have to force yourself to laugh anymore."

 That's what I said.

 It's . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
 I was forcing myself to smile... all of them?

"Don't sacrifice yourself for me. You must live for you."
"But..."

 What? Already... My brother is sloppy.
 At this time of year, in this outfit... you're hugged, you're warm, you know... you're spoiling things like this.
 I'm the eldest daughter, so you know I'm not used to this kind of thing... it's sloppy.

"That we can be like this... that we can laugh... that we can live and that we can be... that's all thanks to my brother. No matter how hard I try, I'm so indebted to my brother that I can't repay him."

 Was it frustrating or upsetting...
 I've done the kind of bullying that my sister sometimes shows me.

"It takes my whole life to return it, but it's not enough." So I want to be of any use to my brother. I'd like to think of my brother. I'll treasure it. What's wrong with that!?"

 I take it out on you.
 It's disgraceful.

 What's more, I don't know how to convince myself, and I'm bending my bad nature.

 I don't like it.
 It's kind of disgusting!

 My brother is to blame.
 I was laughing myself convincingly, but I'm going to take it away.
 He's kind in this position...

"I want to repay you! I'll live for my brother whatever it takes! My life is only for my brother!"

 ...I'm in a bad mood.

"Because I had a brother, we are who we are! Thanks to him, we are happy now! So if it's for him, I'm for him..."

 with a jerk in his arms, interrupting my words.
 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Because... because... because I had a brother..."
"You were accepted by the city because you worked hard."

 Those words don't resonate with me.
 Because I can say it with firm confidence.

"It was my brother who gave me a place where I could do my best."
"That's not the case,"
"It's not different."

 My brother immediately assumes that he didn't do any credit.
"By chance,"
"By the way,"
"It's no big deal,"
"I didn't do anything," he said.

 But this is the only thing I can't give up.
 We wouldn't be able to live with laughter every day without him.

 That's the last thing I'

"It's all thanks to you! This is absolutely true!"
"Oh, that's why."

 ...... to...?
 That's why... what?

"I worked really hard, didn't I? I ran around in the heavy rain and twisted my head. I brought you to the lord, and I gave you a job."

 Oh, yes... Yes.
 That's exactly right.

"That's your credit,"
"...? Well, I don't know, you know?"

 When I looked up, my brother smiled confidently.
 How can it be my credit that my brother worked so hard?
 It was my brother who worked hard... I...

"That's why I did my best."
"……………………………………?"

 I... "That'said I.

"Because they were you and your brothers and sisters, I wanted to do something about it."

 My cheeks were plucked away.
 Still, there are '?' flying around in my head.

"Basically, I don't care whether others are unhappy or not, and even if someone is starving in front of me, I can ignore them without a second thought."

 It's... as if it were right or wrong...

"But you guys couldn't leave me alone,"
「…………」

 My mind went blank.

 I think I knew more than enough that my brother was kind.
 But.........

 I almost cried when I was told that in such honest words.

"It is certain that he has made me think this far, and that he has managed to do something about it."

 He puts his hand on his head, looks at his face with his eyes fixed on him...
 My brother's face is right in front of me... and a kind word comes from it......

"It's you, Loretta,"Large drops of tears fell down.
 a drop so large that you could see it clearly...

"Be more proud of yourself. There aren't many people who can make me say so much. about five in the world."
`Well... well, that's... that's great, you know.'

 I try to make fun of myself, but it just doesn't work.
 Tears clog my voice, runny nose stops breathing, and my eyes become distorted.

"Hehehehe... Am I in your top five? Uh... I'm happy."
"... Oh, sorry. I recounted it, and it was seventh."
"I don't want to! Drop two of you! I'm trying to make you one of the top five!"
"Oh, look, look. The seeds have come off."
"Now I'm relieved! I'm talking about a lower rank than that'said he.

 I can't accept this kind of downgrade!

"You were thinking, "You could forget me, but stay with me -- you know?"

 How sharp are you, my brother?"

"Don't give up, just so easily."
"But I... don't want to bother my brother..."
"You may call it," Hang it up."

 It came so suddenly that there was no time for it to...


"I want to protect you,"


 you've killed my brains.

 Well, what is it... ...that... ...that's too sloppy.

 I want to be a good sister... ...but I want to be a good sister."



 That's what I'm falling in love with......



"Oh, my! My brother is going to smash all my plans!"
"Haha! You're to blame for only planning to be destroyed!"

 so
 That's right
 I can't stand the silly arguments like this.

 So I want to be with you forever.

 with one's brother


 ......Mr. Jiro.


`--?!?'

 That's not good!
 I can't imagine that!
 My nose is bleeding!

 It's too embarrassing!

`Come on!'
`Come on!'
"Oh, my God!
"Come on!"
"Why, you two!"

 Looking back at the voices of my sisters, I found them in a line.

"Hold me!"
"Order!"
"Hurry up!"
`There's no time left!'

 Oh,......hugging......!?

"Oh, you guys, have you been watching!"
"I was watching!"
"Ossans were watching, too!"
"Here's the main street!"
"The audience is full!"
"Oh, my God!"

 This is embarrassing!
 I spoiled myself in public! My eldest daughter's honor is completely ruined!

"Oh, me! I'm going back to the Yodamari-tei to help the manager!"

 Thirty-six is as good as running away!
 ......about twenty-eight? Thirty?

 Anyway, run away!

 Fortunately, my brother was stuck when his sisters jumped at him.

 ... now, if I were to say something nice, I would blush in front of my sisters!
 My sister's love path is too early! I mean, I can't show it to my younger sisters! I'm embarrassed!
 It's a top secret like the older sister's part!

 I left the place and ran away down the main street.

"Loretta!"

 There's a voice calling me in the back.
 The owner of the voice was my brother, who said this to me with his usual, unchanging smile.

"Cheer up!"

 That's a kind word.
 And comfortable words.

"Yes! Of course I'll do my best!"


 I like my brother.
 But now I still want to do my best at work.

 and if I were to grow up to be as breast-feeding as the manager --"

 In that case, you should feel free to take care of your brother.

 I'm sure I'm going to be cuter now than I am now an adult!
