I have pure love with them

"Want to go out?"

When he walked down the stairs, his mother, who had already returned home, was preparing dinner. She saw Quan coming down from upstairs, and as she watched him walk towards the door, she couldn't help but ask him.

"Well, let's go to the convenience store. Do you need me to buy anything?"

Quan, who had already walked to the door, stopped when he heard Mrs. Chihaya's question, turned around to look into the living room, and asked casually.

"Well, I don't need anything for now, but dinner will be ready soon, so remember to come back early."

"Ah."

Looking at his mother preparing dinner in the living room, Quan put on his shoes, went out, closed the door, looked up and glanced at the setting sun.

At this time in March, it was already pitch dark, but now it was only dusk. It was already spring, and another summer was about to come. He didn't know if he would be able to see Aine in a swimsuit this year.

"It depends on whether mother can bring Aiyin back next month."

There is a convenience store on the street where Izumi lives, but thinking about the conversation with Nagasaki Shoyo today, Izumi felt that he needed to pay a little attention to Toyokawa Shoko's situation, so he took a detour and deliberately passed by Toyokawa's house.

But perhaps because he was still working, Quan did not see Shoko when he passed by Toyokawa's house.

When I got home and just entered the house, I felt the quiet atmosphere in the living room seemed a little heavy. My father, who had just got off work, had returned home and was sitting in the living room with his hands clasped under his nose like Commander Ikari. My mother, Mrs. Chihaya, was also sitting at the dining table with a worried look on her face.

"I'm back, what happened?"

Got laid off?

The inexplicably heavy atmosphere made Quan involuntarily look at his father. The majority of the family's income basically depended on his father. His mother also had a job, but it was just a sinecure and the income was not much and could not support the family.

Looking at the sticky atmosphere in the living room that made it difficult to breathe, Quan couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his father's work.

"Would you like to confess my secret stash?"

For the sake of his family, he didn't mind taking out his private stash of cash, and with his father's legal identity, it would be more convenient for him to operate 'FX'.

The man, the head of the family, remained silent, while the mother slowly raised her head with a look of sadness on her face.

"Welcome back, Quan... Do you know anything about your sister?"

“Aine?”

Quan, carrying a shopping bag, walked slowly into the living room. When he heard his mother's question, he couldn't help but feel confused.

"What? What happened?"

As it concerns Aine, Izumi, who had only been muttering in her heart and suspected that her father's unemployment was not a big deal, became serious, put the shopping bag on the table, stood beside the table, and asked with a frown.

"Aine, she's coming back."

“Aine…”

Repeating his father's words, Quan frowned and his thoughts were stuck for a moment.

"return?"

"He said he couldn't adapt to life abroad and was going to come back and continue his studies in the country."

Mrs. Chihaya looked at her son, supplemented some omitted contents for her husband, and explained to Izumi.

“Things like this…”

Looking at his son who wanted to laugh but was trying to hold back his smile, with his expression distorted, the man sitting at the table couldn't help but cover his face, and the woman couldn't help but sigh.

"No, hold it in, don't laugh, don't laugh yet..."

Even though he tried his best to restrain himself, Quan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. His deliberately pretended annoyance and distorted expression made his two parents turn their heads away and not want to look.

Although they knew that their son and daughter had a good relationship, seeing their behavior at this moment still made the two parents feel helpless.

"This is a serious matter, please take it seriously."

67. Strategies are naturally formed and are occasionally obtained by skillful hands.

"When are you coming back?"

After adjusting his mood, Izumi looked much more natural. He sat down at the table and asked his parents about his sister Chihaya Aine's return to China.

"She was the one who was going to study in the UK, but she has been there for a short time and is returning home. Don't you think she is going too far?"

Facing the look his father gave him, Izumi didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. His sister Chihaya Aine's decision to go abroad was a bit sudden for the family, but for the sake of their daughter's future, everyone except Izumi was willing to support her.

However, the school year in China had just started and she was already preparing to return home. As a parent, I felt like I had been cheated and was somewhat dissatisfied with my daughter's decision.

"Although it's excessive, she can no longer stay there. We still have to let her come back. Forcing her to stay in an environment she can't adapt to will only add to her psychological and physical burden."

I understand the truth, but I'm a little dissatisfied emotionally, especially when I see how happy Quan is. As the head of the family, I feel helpless.

"Then let her transfer to a school in China. School has only been open for less than a month. With Aine's grades, she should have no problem passing the school's entrance test. The only question now is whether or not to go to England to bring her back."

Tapping the table, the three of them looked at each other.

As the head of the family, the man has to work and has no vacation to go to England to pick up Aine. Izumi has to go to school, and as a mother, Mrs. Chihaya has time, but she cannot communicate with the locals verbally. At most, she can just look at the menu.

"Let her come back on her own. Just consider it as her punishment."

In the end, it was the man as the head of the family who made the decision. The family members would not go and let Aine come back alone.

After making the final decision, the family who had already gathered started to enjoy the still warm dinner. The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Quan, who was sitting at the table, was thinking about things related to his sister. He didn't really care about the atmosphere at home. After dinner, in order to make up for his previous gaffe, he took the initiative to take over the task of cleaning up the mess.

"Are you coming back?"

After the meal, Quan rested for a while and went into the bathroom alone. He soaked in the warm water, feeling his body wrapped, and squinted his eyes comfortably.

I originally thought that Aine would come back in winter, but I didn't expect that she would come back in April.

“Gurgle, gurgle…”

Blowing out bubbles, Quan reorganized the things about his sister in his mind.

"She enrolled in Yugaoka Girls' Academy in the spring. I only remember that when she came back, the temperature there was low and she had to wear thick clothes, but I forgot that at that time, everyone else had just entered the first year of high school, so... I misunderstood. Was she supposed to come back in April?"

There was a mistake in memory, or rather understanding, but it was not a bad thing. For Quan, it was an unexpected surprise.

As he sorted out his thoughts, Quan also thought of a troublesome thing.

"After returning, Aine will tell Nagasaki Shoyo that Shoko is in Hanega. By then, my existence will be... No, with Aine here, I will definitely be of no use!"

Considering Aine's personality, she is not good at playing the guitar. Maybe when her band is about to perform, she will have to find me to help her with special training. There will still be opportunities for contact. And Nagasaki Shoyo currently doesn't know where Toyokawa Shoko lives.

It's safe!

Back in the room, Quan thought about contacting Aine, but was worried about upsetting her, so he decided not to contact her for the time being.

"I don't know if her body has developed well during her stay in the UK, and I don't know if her clothes will fit her. I'll go shopping with her and buy her clothes. Then we can have a cup of coffee together and go to the Sky Tower to see Tokyo, which she hasn't seen for a long time. The cherry blossoms are blooming right now, so I can go with her to see the cherry blossoms... and the Meiji Shrine and Disney."

Once his younger sister Chihaya Aine was involved, Izumi's subjective initiative was naturally aroused, and he began to prepare for the "date" after Aine returned home... a shopping plan.

“…There shouldn’t be any traces of Gotou-san left in Aine’s room, right?”

Izumi hasn't told her sister yet about Goto Ichiri staying in Aine's room for a night.

Izumi, wearing pajamas, stood up and went to Aine's room. Under the pure white moonlight, even without turning on the lights, the room was still clearly visible. On that rare bright moonlit night, Izumi stood at the door of the room, looking at the quiet room, and a smile appeared on her face when she thought that the owner of the room would be back soon.

"Well, you can't forget your purpose."

After turning on the light in the room, Quan entered the room. The first thing he did was to confirm whether there was any hair of Goto Ichiri left in the room. The two had the same hair color, but some differences in hair quality. To be on the safe side, he spent half an hour carefully tidying up the room and sprayed air freshener to ensure that no traces were left before returning to the room.

'Did you forget something?'

I returned to the room, lay down on the bed, and after closing my eyes, I always felt that there was something bothered in my heart.

But when I think about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing I haven’t done.

"...Ah, Goto-san."

Today, Goto Ichiri did not send him a message.

He opened his eyes, fumbled around his pillow for a while, found his cell phone, then opened his Line account, and found that he had indeed not received any contact from Goto Ichiri.

21:23

At this point, others may have already rested, but Goto Ichiri should be preparing to rest.

"Come to think of it, before this it was Goto who basically took the initiative to send me messages, which felt a little weird."

After you get used to a person, if that person suddenly changes, you will indeed have some special feelings and feel uncomfortable.

"Is there any reason?"

Goto Ichiri was indeed a little strange today, and his attitude towards him had changed a lot.

It seems that after talking about Aine, Goto Ichiri's attitude has changed a little. She doesn't seem to like listening to him talking about Aine?

“So you’re really concerned about Aine?”

The last time we talked about Aine, we said that the two of them were somewhat similar, and this was probably the reason.

“…Forget it, wait until Aine comes back and let her play the guitar once in front of Gotou. Then Gotou will know that she and Aine are different.”

Aine will be in the same class as Takamatsu Tomo, which is probably due to the number of people. As long as Aine enters Hanegaoka Girls' Academy, there will be no change. Sitting behind Takamatsu Tomo is based on height, so there won't be any surprises. As long as the two know each other and get close, and notice that people around them care about Takamatsu Tomo, it won't be surprising for Aine to invite Takamatsu Tomo to form a band given her personality.

Aion had the idea of ​​forming her own band, and inviting Takamatsu Touma was inevitable!

So, it is a foregone conclusion that she will learn guitar!

When the time comes, he will invite Goto Ichiri to 'RiNG', and the two will meet. After that, Goto Ichiri will understand the difference between her and Aine, and even gain confidence!

Strategy is naturally formed, and is occasionally obtained by a skilled hand.

68. Isn’t that good?

In the early morning of the next day, I learned from my family that Aiyin would take a flight in the afternoon and return home the day after tomorrow.
