Yeah so I'm just gonna write a new scenario for our troubled teens. I'm inspired by the new amount of Oregairu fanfictions. Anyways I'm praying that I don't lose my motivation to write this new one again. Anyways let me try something new.

Instead of leaving the narration to Hachiman or Yukino as I've done so before I'll start off with the highly ominious big sister of Yukino: Haruno. Mind you this is my take on her character.


One Year

January-Even if Haruno Yukinoshita isn't God…..


I've always wondered.

It's strictly a fun question of course, seeing as I don't really believe in a higher power.

But...

If he was real.

Why would God even create us?

Why would God a perfect being need to create humans?

People claim that's it's all because of his love. But you know I kinda wanna call BS on that.

I mean its not really possible to love something without existence right?

Maybe he wanted to prove his love? But even so he is the most powerful and superior being at the time. He doesn't need proof.

So I began to think. What is God exactly?

And really only one word comes to mind.

Perfect. A being of pure perfection. A being with the power to do anything he wanted.

So what was it that God sought?

What was the thing that was even beyond God the perfect being?

I find to my surprise that the answer is in 'perfection'.

By being perfect there was only one thing that God was not; imperfect.

I think that at some point that things were getting boring with perfection in his life.

So along his lines of thinking he must have sought fun to do.

Particularly a tiny little experiment.

What happens if I bring imperfection to the world?

What will change? What will eventually happen to the world that I created? How much fun was I going to get from this? What different types of imperfection can breed without my help?

I bet you that this and many other questions ran through God's head as he made humans the imperfect beings.

What sort of new entertainment am I going to get this time round?

God must think of this every day.

Of course that means that he doesn't like things going on for too long.

Too much despair.

Too much happiness.

Too much grief.

Too much hope.

Too much hatred.

Too much of any emotion.

All these things God must hate because it gets boring.

But I suppose if there is a key emotion that God does love forever it must be...

Love.

Just think of it. Add a drop of love to a person with differing personalities and then a new differing combination of situations of love arises.

New emotions.

New frustrations.

New misunderstandings.

New interesting samples.

And now I as continue to ponder the makings of the universe I manage to find an irony in my thoughts.

That amongst all of the humans in this earth that I find more kinship with a being that doesn't really exist.

Though to be honest with you I wouldn't mind believing in a God that toys with human's for entertainment.

After all I can sympathize. What's a perfect person meant to do?

Okay I'm not perfect. Me thinking like this is full proof of this. But still managing to handle all the situation given to me and then fulfilling all the expectations of me with a genuine smile what's left to entertain me?

Well the answer to my own question is obvious.

Love of course.

And snow, piles and piles of snow under snow.

And I simply can't forget the 80000 points left in store.

"Happy New Years everybody! How are you going to entertain your Onee-san this year?!"


Shopping districts are fun.

I'm of the belief that if you pay close enough attention to people for an extended period of time you could understand what were by what they buy and how they buy it.

For example. The guy that goes straight to the department store, leaves the store in 5 minutes max and returns home all within 15 or so minutes must be a pratical guy.

And the girl who spends her time window shopping with such longing is probably a girl who wants to be noticed but doesn't have the means herself to do so.

So what does that say about the clearly distressed boy I see several metres in front of me?

I mean the presence of such an entity, a lonerish one at that, in a crowded shopping centre was very rare.

I mean rarer that finding a metal king slime.

I bet you the only thing with that level of rarity was Raku actually confessing to a girl.

Now the normal process would to be to shock him by calling him out.

But since this time he came here of his own accord...

I'm curious!

Now he might pride himself on not being noticed but it's not really effective if someone actually was stalking him.

What was he was going to buy?

Who was he going to buy it for?

Was he meeting someone? If so who?

All these questions surged in my head.

Seeing him turn into the boy's toliets made me lose my intial vigour. Waiting outside was boring but it couldn't be helped.

"Can't follow him in there can I? I don't really want questions."

But the world tends to like me.

I mean what other explanation I am going to get for seeing his own very little sister stalking him.

And like a bored student who was hit in the face by a paper ball she turned her immediate attention to me.

"Ah Yukinoshita-san right?"

"We've never really met in a while have we?"

She shook her head.

"Well in that case just call me Haruno. Or prehaps you'd like to call me Haru-nee?" I teased.

I suppose that I said the right thing since her eyes lit up as if she found herself the ally she'd always wanted.

"Ah in that case I'll be in your care in law-san!"

The way she made that mistake was kinda cute.

"Just so we're clear, I'm not accepting anymore application forms past this month so please voice your interest in him before this day ends." She brazenly declared.

"Holding your brother's life in your hands huh? You're reminding me of myself."

Well perhaps not to the full extent.

"You flatter me, Haruno-san. But you really don't like him right?"

"Like him? Of course I do?"

"What does that mean I have to add you the list of potentials?!" She exclaimed loud enough to get a few heads turning.

"Whilst the opportunity for fun here is self-evident, I've got a policy of keeping my interference on an indirect level. Still he might grow to the point where he might get interesting enough…."

"Okay, well then. I'll add you to the list as 'undecided'."

She pulled out her phone and began to take something down. I glanced over her shoulder and saw the title.

List of Onii-chan's potential girlfriends.

Yukino Yukinoshita (Yukino-san)-interested party-Komachi approves! Nice match, will probably shape Onii-chan well. Recently acting odd (source; me).

Yui Yuigahama (Yui-san)-long time admirer!-Komachi approves! Really nice but Onii-chan will need to learn how to cook. Yui-san been kinda fidgety lately. Is it because graduation is coming up?

Kawasaki Saki-(Taishi's Onee-chan)- If all else fails she might not?

Isshiki Iroha (Isshiki-senpai)- 2nd year high school student. Student Council president. Claims to like some else but her interactions with Onii-chan tends to contradict that statement.

She began to update her list with a new entry.

Haruno Yukinoshita (Haru-nee or in law san). I can't tell whether she's an ally or an interested party. She seems nice enough and really pretty. As expected of the Yukinoshita family.

It was a rather cute description of things but who knew that a loner could have so many admirers.

She began to grin. And pointed her finger to the boy's toilet several metres ahead of us.

Our prey had emerged.

Seeing as we had the same goal we decided to follow him together.

We spent several minutes following him. He was wandering aimlessly judging by his direction.

Was he really just wasting time?

"No he isn't wasting time. Onii-chan wouldn't put this much effort to leaving the house if he wanted to waste time!" She declared as if reading my mind.

"Besides he's been looking intently for something for the past day or so! And he's been getting more agitated by the day."

"See he's looking at another shop!"

But apparently he wasn't going to find what he wanted in that shop.

Damnit what was he trying to find?

He spent another boring 15 minutes searching the large shopping mall. Until he found himself sprawled on the nearest bench.

"Ah it seems that Onii-chan's getting tired! Ah I wish I could help him! But he needs to experience things on his own!"

But perhaps luck was shining on him that day.

With a look as if he found thing he was searching for he rose from his seated position and ran!

Naturally we followed him.

To the Destinyland shop.

Grinning was one of my favorite skills. Out of all my talents my favorite skill was my ability to smile.

Evil, happy or polite I was a master of all of them.

99% of people would probably think I'm smiling genuinely all the time. And 99% of people are correct.

I can say for certain that 100% of the times I smile are generated through genuine reasons.

The best of intentions? Perhaps not. Interest most definitely.

So it's no wonder that I felt face stretch to its utmost limits.

Especially went he came out clutching a small brown bag, looking at it nervously.

Putting two plus two together is always a fun occasion.

"Say little sister-san? You mind updating that list of yours?"

She smiled too.

But if someone asked who smiled the hardest then the answer was most certainly me.

There was no chance that anyone could smile harder than me.

After all there wasn't anything else I had such passionate feelings for.

Well this was gonna be fun!


The next day. 3rd of January.

Normally today would be a day where my parent's would interfere and drag Yukino around somewhere.

But today they were on a business trip overseas.

Lucky!

I really didn't want them interfering.

But right now things were boring. Sitting in a coffee shop waiting was boring. Was this how it felt to be scientist waiting for an experiment to have results?

I had no choice but to rely on my new information source; Komachi.

Things this year was very interesting.

Usually What-its-gahama would be here. But as luck would have it, she isn't here. Family trip or something. Either way that isn't the main point of interest.

This means that any outside interference in influencing him to celebrate Yukino-chan's birthday were zilch.

That meant that he was doing this out of his own volition, not out of being nagged to death.

Whether that meant he had feelings for her or not.

Whether that meant he was obligated to come out of guilt.

Whether he was merely bored and wanted a chance of pace.

Whether they were friends.

Whether they were lovers.

Whether she wanted her company on a cold day.

Whether we're planning something.

Whether they we're crying their eyes out.

Whether they we fighting to save the world or even attempting to destroy it.

I really don't care. I just want to know. I don't care about the consequences of their actions.

Hell even if they're trying to plot my death.

Hell even if they're making babies right now.

Hell even if they were planning to run away.

Hell even if they planned to go off in a shotgun marriage.

I really wouldn't mind.

Of course reality isn't so exciting so I calmed myself.

My phone rung.

"Ara! Haruno-san? It seems that they've met up. Yeah they're headed in your direction."

"Say little sister? Are you happy?"

"What with these questions?"

"Just answer. I would like to know why you're so intent on matchmaking your brother.

"Couldn't this apply to you as well? Ah well."

"I just wanna see him happy is all. Seeing him happy gives me the satisfaction that being a little sister must bring. Really it's a selfish wish I presume. I have no idea whether onii-chan even wants to date anyone."

"Self-satisfaction huh? Makes sense. Not so removed from my own reason…."

"Still headed to this place huh? I'd best retreat from this place. Say little sister was that recording device working?"

"The bluetooth one? Yeah it is. They're just bantering as usual."

Komachi had secretly installed a three way conversation recorder/listener on the both of them. It could pick out their voices but anything else was impossible.

"Ya know Haru-nee? I kinda feel like a spy."

"Well in most countries this would be considering spying. But hey you're his little sister he ain't gonna be too mad if he finds out."

"That's not really assuring."

I could almost hear her sweat drop.

"Still they're relationship must be close right? I mean a gift exchange in public?"

"You know. I don't really think they're here for the express purpose of a gift exchange or celebration. Those two aren't so brazen that they'll go outside even if they were intimate."

"So what the operation is a bust then?"

"No it isn't. It just means that they have some express purpose in coming out. Most likely to meet someone seeing as those two wouldn't like people entering their homes and that they wouldn't be as impractical to go off to places with no reason."

"Ah they're at the coffee shop. You should connect to the blue-tooth thing as well Haru-nee!"

I did as I was advised and retreated to an obscure corner of the coffee shop.

"Hikigaya-kun. Why did you choose this place for the meeting?"

"No choice really. She wouldn't meet anywhere else, seeing as a ramen stall was forbidden."

"If you seriously thought ramen stall was a great meeting place then you're solely mistaken. Besides that wasn't what I was asking. Why choose this place? You should know it right? Nee-chan frequents this place."

It's too late Yukino-chan.

"Well it's too late to change. Besides here they are."

"Fine."

And right on time came Isshiki Iroha and Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"So what plans do you have in mind?"

"16th of February huh? Oi oi, this thing is meant to be month away right?"

"Why now of all times?!"

He seemed pretty pissed. The girl seemed to have shocked him.

"Third years last ball huh? All years invited? Don't tell me…."

The girl blocked his mouth. Seems like she can be pretty threatening.

"Say Haru nee. Doesn't Yukino-san look a bit flustered?"

"Flustered? Well she's probably pissed that see isn't getting a chance to speak….."

Hey, hey was this really my sister? Wouldn't she be interjecting at this point?

"So you guys just need help in promoting the thing right? Is the student council that understaffed?"

"What are we the school journalists?"

"Well Hikigaya-kun, there is probably no point in arguing. At least we've had fair warning this time."

"The overall structure is to be decided with the Council correct?"

And so as expertly as they entered they left the coffee shop.

"That's all? I was hoping for more….."

"No it was an interesting little tibit. Things are heating up. If anything we know that Yukino-chan is flustered by this idea of a ball of sorts. Plus the day isn't over yet."

So we followed them all the way to Yukino-chan's apartment.

Oh what was this?

Ah the gift.

"Just so you know. This isn't because I wanted give you one, it was err Komachi and Yuigahama…They insisted so…."

"Thank you Hikigaya-kun. I s-suppose th-hat it'll be too rude of me to ask you to watch this with me?"

"Well no its not but?...Asking a boy to watch a movie?"

"You should be pleased that a girl like me even considered the offer. If you don't want to…"

"No it's fine but."

"It's just Pan-san the Panda movie requires more than one person to watch it at a time.

He rubbed his head. He hadn't heard of that excuse before and either had I.

But he nodded in agreement.

And so they entered the apartment. To a place where I had no power over.

And so on that oddly chilly January evening. An evening which even skies began to react to as it began to snow interesting developments began to talk hold.

And on that evening where everyone cheered in delight in the snow, I cheered the loudest.

Whatever was to happen was of no concern to me.

Yet I smiled.

I wouldn't trade this for all the power in the world.

Being able to see into the future was boring.

And so I laughed.

Whether it was happiness or sadness that would befall on them, I wished them luck.

"Say little sister. Give them my regards kay! I've got things to adjust."

On this day I couldn't help but wonder about God once more.

Was he pleased today?

Even if he wasn't I certainly was….


Well that the end of the first chapter. Man I like using Haruno. I seem to relate more to Haruno that any other character though Hachiman and Yukino are still my favorites. Expect her to comeback and expect other people's POV for things to come.

I don't own Oregairu.

Please review and like at your leisure.
