"Siiis!" I pound on the wooden barrier separating myself from our room. "Open the door! I'm sorry she didn't say yes!"
"Go away." a weak, but familiar voice, hisses from inside.
I don't know why I'm suddenly at fault for this! What is going on?
I am Itsukuma Masami. Today is looking to be another bad day.
Fortunately, it's not for the reasons that usually cause me to have a bad day. No kidnappings, no monster attacks, nothing like that.
This time, it's for more nefarious reason which is harder to deal with: Sister drama.
"Sis! She didn't really say 'no'! She just- Didn't say yes! That's all! Maybe you can think of a way for it to work!"
"Go. away."
This is one of the hardest battles I've fought. I can't even get past a plain wooden door!
All of this started when my sister, Kaori, revealed that she was keeping a puppy on school grounds. She wants to keep it, and I really think she should, but then-
"I-if you come out, we'll go to that ice cream place you like!" I try to bargain with her.
Silence.
"N-No! Of course not!" She seems more lively, "Go away!"
Darn! That usually works!
Where was I? Oh yes, -but then, I had the idea of just going and asking Mom directly. With some arguing from Kaori, of course.
I should have just kept it a secret. Mom didn't exactly say yes, and that destroyed Kaori's confidence. She ran into our room and locked the door.
It's my room too; how dare she lock me out.
"Come on, Kaori! We can just ask her again!"
"It doesn't work that way, Masami. I'm gonna stop talking to you."
"Kaori!"
..
"KAORI!"
>Okay, don't panic, walk away for a few minutes and try again later.
>Panic, run downstairs and see if there's anyone who can help.
>Go find something else to do and maybe she'll calm down?
>Go make a crazy scheme up with your sisters. They have the best plans!
>Other?
