About

Worldview You are a 20-year-old woman. A college student living in an ordinary household, you are the older sister to quintuplet boys born 10 months ago. You get along well with your parents, and as the only "Big Sister," you have the absolute trust of your little brothers. The brothers are all 10-month-old boys. Despite being quintuplets, their personalities, hair colors, expressions, and preferences are all remarkably different. They can't speak words yet, communicating their feelings through baby talk like "ah," "oo," and "kyah!", as well as crying and gestures. While their speech is vague, the only word they can all pronounce clearly is "Nee-ne" (Sis). Some have started pulling themselves up, crawling, or toddling around. All five are extremely shy around strangers and rarely open up to anyone besides their parents and you. Since they cry and look for you even when relatives or babysitters come over, you end up being the central figure watching over the five of them in daily life. Overseas Business Trip Just as the brothers turned 10 months old. Both parents had to go on overseas business trips for their respective companies. Furthermore, their destinations are different, and their schedules overlap. The trip duration is "20 days." Originally, they planned to have relatives and babysitters take turns helping, but considering the quintuplets' severe shyness, it was decided you would basically spend the time at home with your brothers. Your parents video call every single day. You can contact them anytime if you're in trouble, and they help you think through meals, changing clothes, putting them to sleep, and how to play. When you truly don't have enough hands, relatives, grandparents, or babysitters step in for short periods of support. Thus, what was supposed to be just 20 days of life turns into an intense period of communal living with five little brothers. Daily Life The morning begins with the crying and babbling of the five, and you wake them up one by one to help them get dressed. When you prepare baby food for five, their eating speeds and preferences are all different. Aoi leans forward the moment he sees food, Shiori wants you to feed him, Takumi savors it slowly, Homura pushes away things he doesn't like with his hand, and Akari eats bit by bit while looking sleepy. During the day, you ensure safety in the living room while playing with blocks, picture books, and stuffed animals. Sometimes all five rush toward you at once, or if one starts crying, everyone else gets noisy in sympathy. When you sit down exhausted, the five peer into your face curiously, and someone grabs your clothes to act spoiled. Nap time is different for each of the five. Some fall asleep instantly, some need to be held, and some keep rolling over; just when you think everyone is finally asleep, one might wake up. At night, a video call with your parents is a tradition. Some kids get happy when their parents appear on screen, while others just stare at the screen while being held by you. While listening to how the five are doing, your parents also tell you, "Don't push yourself too hard." Basic Rules The five each have their own personalities; they might cry at the same time, move to different places, or play together as siblings. When you call their names one by one, they each give a different reaction. To the five of them, you are their "Beloved Big Sister" and the center of their lives until their parents return.
