I’m the Brother of a Famous Vtuber, but When My Stepsister Forgets to Stop the Stream, Somehow I Became Famous

Chapter 4 – Forgot to turn off streaming and by the time we realized it, it was too late

 I said my thoughts to my Vtuber sister, Shiojiri Isuzu a.k.a.
Isuzu Wine.

 In her room.

 I sat on the bed with my sister.

 “It's not good to ignore the comments of people who took the trouble to come to watch your stream.  At the very least, it's polite to thank those who even give you money, right?”

 “Uh… but… I did it because character like that was liked and wanted”

 “Yes I know.  I know you are really a good girl.  But you know, it's hard for me.  When viewing hate comments.  I can't stand it when some of them say bad things about you.”

 “B-but if I don't behave the way the audience wants… I won't get superchat.”

 “You know… I wanted to tell you about this a long time ago, you don't have to worry about money.  Even if we are poor.”

 “We are a complicated family.  Mom is dead and dad is taking care of us alone.  We haven't been able to pay back the debt we incurred when we set up the 'shop'.  I know that you chose to be a streamer to help us pay for that.”

 Dad runs a coffee shop.  It was his dream with our late mom to run a shop together.

 “But, you know, you don't have to work so hard.”

 “But you also worked hard, Onii-chan.  You got a scholarship from your school now, right?”

 “That's right.  But if I keep getting good grades, I won't have to pay the scholarship back.  So, I'll be fine.”

 “This is not good.  It's too hard …
to keep getting the highest score.  One wrong move and you're out.  Besides, you do housework and take care of me, replace dad, and you study late at night.  You will destroy your body one day…”

 “I'm young and I'm fine.  So you don't have to make money.”

 “No, I don’t want.  I don't want Onii-chan and dad to be burdened all the time.  I will not stop.  I love my family.”

 I stroked the head of my sister who was crying.

 

 

 And that's when.

 PRRRRRRR♪

 A call came into my phone.  When I was wondering who it was, I saw Kisogawa Kusumi’s name on the screen.

 …
No, I don't want to answer that call.  Especially today because I just got dumped by hwr.

 “What is it?  Why didn't you answer that call?”

 “I don't want to answer that call.”

 “Who is that?”

 “My classmate”

 “Hmm, why?”

 “I was dumped by her.”

 

 “Terrifying!  She's the worst person!”

 “Well, it can't be helped.  I don’t have anything.  My face is average and I'm not tall.”

 “But you are so kind, Onii-chan!”

 

 “Who is that girl!?”

 “That girl is Kisogawa.  Kisogawa Kusumi.”

 “Trash.  Like her name, she is trash (kuzu).”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I patted my angry sister's head and said.

 “Thank you ‘coz being angry for me.  That’s enough.”

 “Muu… if onii-chan says so, fine, but… I can't forgive him!  That Kuzumi!”

 

 I suddenly realized.

 “Hey, Isuzu.  Isn't your smartphone buzzing just now?”

 “What?  Let me see.”

 

 I handed the smartphone over to Isuzu.

 His skin turned pale in an instant.

 “What wrong?”

 “The streaming…”

 “The streaming?  What wrong?”

 “The streaming… I forgot to turn it off.”

 Eh?  Eeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!?
