This sister had asthma. I was wheezing all year round. Even so, she was born very irritable, she never kept still unless it was very painful. She was not satisfied unless doing something and walking around the small house all the time. Kenzo felt sorry her lentless and raoughness. His sister was also a very talkative woman. And then, there was no grace in the way he spoke. Kenzo, who sit face to fece with her, had to glower and shut up.
"This is my sister."
After talking to her, Kenzo always had this kind of recollection in his heart.
That day, Kenzo found this older sister, who was rummaging around the cupboard with her sleeves tucked up as usual.
"Well, it's rare that you visit me. I am happy to see you. Come on, please."
My sister recommended Kenzo a floor cushion and went to the veranda to wash her hands.
Kenzo looked around in the drawing room while she was away.
There was an old picture frame hanging over the fanlight that he had been familiar with since he was a child.
He remembered that he was told by the master here when he was fifteen or six years old, that the name Ken Tsutsui written in the seal is probably a Hatamoto calligrapher or something and he is very good at writing. He used to call this master his brother at that time and went out to play all the time even though there was age difference like uncle and nephew. They made his sister angry by wrestling in the drawing room, and they were asked for responsibility for throwing the skin into the garden next door after climbing to the roof, picking and eating figs. He sometimes felt very resentful for the master had deceived him to buy a compass in a box and never bought it. I had a quarrel with my sister and decided that I wouldn't forgive even if she apologized. However, no matter how long he waited, his sister won't apoligized, so he has no choice but to go vist her from his side. Since he didn't have anything to do, it was humorous that he was standing at the gate silently until she call him to enter.
Gazing at the old picture frame, Kenzo clearly started to search his childhood memory. He felt uncomfortable with himself who are not able to have much of favor to his sister and her husband now, who had taken care of him so much in the past.
"How are you feeling lately? Do you not get mad so badly?"
He looked at his sister's face sitting in front of him and asked.
"Yeah, thank you.Thanks to you. The weather is so nice. Somehow I'm only doing household chores, but I can't work like I used to because I am old. A long time ago, when Ken-chan came to play, I rolled up the bottom of my kimono and fixed it behind the obi. I used to wash up to the bottom of the pot, but I don't have that kind of energy now. But thanks to you, I also drink milk every day like this..."
Kenzo did not forget to give his sister some pocket money each month, albeitlt's a little.
"You seems to lost some weight."
"I'm originally like this, so it can't be helped. I'm a woman who never gained weight since long ago. Because I am irritable. I can't gain weight because I am irritable. His sister rolled up her sleeves and showed Kenzo fleshless thin arms. A dark semi-circular halo with her loose skin melancholily colored under her big depressed eyes.
Kenzo silently gazed at hear dry palm.
"It is excellent that you, Ken-Chan, become prominent." When you went abroad, I thought it would be difficult to see you alive again, still you came back alive and well. If our father and mother were alive they would have been much pleased. At some time or other my sister's eyes were filled with tears. When Kenzo was a child, my sister used to became the habit of saying, "If I make money, I'll buy you, Ken-Chan, whatever you like." On the other hand, she also said "If you are obstinate like this, you can't be that successful". Kenzo smiled wryly in his heart, remembering his sister's words and tone of voice of the past.
