Kenkyo, Kenjitsu o Motto ni Ikite Orimasu

This is my final Christmas present to you, and Id be really glad if you gifted me back with a review on novelupdates! Share the love! Glory to Reika-chan!

These are Reikas last moments in Suirans primary section! Thanks for reading my translations so far, and if you love Reika like I do, I hope youll look forward to her life as a middle schooler too!

In j.a.panese, the two main characters for flower(hana) are and . The latter is rather more poetic/fanciful, and is actually used in Reikas name. Specifically, Reika means beautiful flower, graceful flower, lovely flower etc. The characters can also be as urara.

An ephemeral-type beauty in j.a.pan is somebody thats typically delicate, very fair-skinned, slender like a willow, and generally soft or fragile somehow. Like, somewhat fairy or sylph-like, with an atmosphere thats faint and somewhat unreal. Like a beauty that you might see in a pa.s.sing dream or something? Well, it sounds a bit exaggerated, but if the description wasnt then it would be a bajillion-times harder to explain.

The day of the graduation ceremony came. Everybody is going up the escalator together, so well all meet again in Suirans middle school section. Although well be in a different building, were all on the same property, so Im not really feeling lonely about it. Maybe everybody else was thinking like me, because n.o.body cried. Only, this would be the last time we would be wearing this navy uniform to school, so everybody was busy taking photos. Of course, I took some with my friends too. Because today was a happy occasion, Okaasama was more fired up than usual, and had my hair even curlier today. Also, both Kaburagi and Enjou have been surrounded by girls since this morning. Heaps of boys from the lower grades who went out of their way to attend were also photographing and filming the Hero of the Cavalry Battle .

*imouto*

Besides my parents who were here, Oniisama brought me a bouquet of flowers! There were pink roses, carnations, garberas, and a bunch of other really cute flowers. Thank you, Oniisama! As for not just giving me a bunch of bright red roses, as expected of you! In Oniisamas mind, my image is more like these cute pink flowers, isnt it! Or so I was thinking, feeling deeply moved, when Oniisama pointed at a deeply coloured rose and said,

These flowers are called Urara, you know. Theyre your flowers, arent they, Reika?

-ZUKKYUUUUUUN!!-

Oniisama! Just what manner of being are you!? My flowers! My roses! My maidens heart is so moved that I dont think itll hold! It looks like today, with just Oniisama, Im already feeling totally popular! His smile is so dazzling-!

Or so I was thinking, as I writhed about in happiness on the inside, while my friends around me were also saying Reika-samas Oniisama, so dreamy&h.e.l.lip;, spellbound. Isnt he! Isnt he! My Oniisama is the best in the world! Still, although theyre minors, theyre still maidens and Oniisama pierced right through their hearts. I was actually a little nervous, secretly wondering where on earth he learnt this skill.

Oniisama doesnt work any strange jobs, does he?

Watching Oniisama, Okaasama looked satisfied and said as expected of my son while Otousama looked a little ashamed and embarra.s.sed for not bringing anything. Its fine, Otousama. For things like this, its your feelings that count. Rather, if the chubby Otousama did the same thing as Oniisama, Id be a little grossed out.

While I was happy about the roses with my name, and getting photos under the sakura trees with my family, a parent and child group came along.

Congratulations on your daughters graduation, Kisshouin-sama.

Oohh! Why if it isnt Kaburagi-sama! Congratulations on Masaya-kuns graduation, I should say!

UHIIIII! Its gone from heaven to h.e.l.l! Why did they come talk to us!?

Reika-san, congratulations on graduating. What beautiful flowers you have. They fit you perfectly.

T-, Thank you very much.

Today Mrs. Kaburagi was wearing a vivid, deep blue suit, and was even more beautiful than when I met her in the restaurant. Quite a contrast to the elegant white suit that my Okaasama was wearing.

Reika-san, please do get along with Masaya in middle school.

My! Our Reika as well! We certainly hope Masaya-kun gets along with her. Right, Reika-san?

Without affirming or denying Okaasama, I simply smiled away. What a horrible development. A horrible, horrible development. Please, just go away without causing any trouble. My prayer bore no fruit, because our parents just continued to chat, and chat. When I happened to look forward, I met gazes with the bored-looking Kaburagi. Hmm, he huffed, as he looked away. Uwah~ Totally indifferent to me. Dont think I want to get close to a guy like you, either!

Reika-san, do you remember what we spoke about earlier? Please do come over to play.

Hah?

Kaburagi wrinkled his nose in displeasure and looked at his mother.

Thank you very much.

For now I just smiled. Im definitely not going, okay. Look, Kaburagi is looking all unhappy about it. Hes got a Why the h.e.l.l is she coming to our house? face on. Wah-, hes glaring!

My, myy! Reika-san, you must definitely visit them!

Isnt that greatt, Reika? Ahaha, our Reika adores Masaya-kun, you see.

I dont adore him! Why the h.e.l.l are you spouting bulls.h.i.t, Otousama! Okaasamas eyes are sparkling! Aahh, what do I do&h.e.l.lip; Why dont they notice Kaburagis displeased aura!? I dont adore you, okay! I have no intention of going, okay! So please just stop glaring at me so angrily! I entreated the nearby Oniisama with my eyes, but he just made a troubled expression and seemed to decide on watching things pan out. Somebody save meeeee!

Mum, Shuusuke and the others are here, so Im going.

My, Shuusuke-kun?

Enjou and a person who seemed to be his mother came out from the school building. Its my first time seeing her. Such an ephemeral-looking beauty~

Oohh, Enjou-samas! I certainly do wish to greet them.

GYAHHHH! Otousamas words just made things even worse!

Dad, Mum, I think Reika wants to spend the last moments of primary with her friends. Would it be okay if she went? Its her graduation ceremony, after all.

Oniisama!

However&h.e.l.lip;

I also wanna walk around the place with Shuusuke.

Kaburagi got on board.

What a helpless boy, you are. Very well, go have fun. My apologies, Kisshouin-sama. Masaya is quite a wilful child.

No, no, not at all. The rumours of Masaya-kuns excellence have reached my ears, you know.

After saying his goodbyes to my family, Kaburagi immediately headed off to Enjou. I need to leave now as well!

Well then, I shall also be heading to my friends. Kaburagi-sama, please excuse me.

Giving a small bow, I hurried over to the ring of girls. Ill leave the rest to you, Oniisama!

*imouto*

Just as I thought I had finally escaped from my parents, Serika-chan and Kikuno-chan had been lying in wait to get stories about the Kaburagi family from me. Please, just give me a break~

Since its our precious graduation ceremony, I wanted it to end more enjoyablyy. Even though the incidents lasted just a few minutes, Im dead tired. Or rather, if things fall into the same pattern at the middle section entrance ceremony, what am I going to do&h.e.l.lip; I hugged Oniisamas bouquet tightly.

But uraras, huhhh? I had no idea roses like that existed. Rococo and roses. Kuh-! Its way too fitting, if I do say so myself. Isnt this exactly a shoujo manga development? But its a little sad that things only happen with my blood-related brother. But well, thats good in its own way too. This is also part of the future blessing curse, after all. Im sure once I enter middle school, a wonderful lovey dovey development will await me too.

*imouto*

When I got home, my excited parents pestered me about visiting the Kaburagi house, but I gave excuses and told them that Kaburagi hated women, and so going would actually bother him. But looking at these two, theyre deeefinitely not gunna give up, are theyyy? Honestly, I wish they would just stop with their weird ambitions already.

Oohh! Why if it isnt Kaburagi-sama! Congratulations on Masaya-kuns graduation, I should say! (said Reikas dad)

My! Our Reika as well! We certainly hope Masaya-kun gets along with her. Right, Reika-san? (said Reikas mum) Her mother refers to her as Reika-san, but her father doesnt.

Oniisama doesnt work any strange jobs, does he? e.g. host, gigolo etc.
