【MIYU】Silent Lover

The next day, before Mikael came to his house, Yuichiro rushed into his house impatiently. Who told Mikael to leave yesterday while he was asleep, and he hadn't taken him to play yet.

"Yu, why are you here so early?" Micah's mother was surprised, and said with a smile, "Micah hasn't woken up yet."

Yuichiro scratched his head and said, "Then I'll wait for him here."

"Is there something you want to do with Micah?" Micah's mother asked curiously.

"It's nothing..." Youhe smiled, "He agreed to hang out with me yesterday, but I fell asleep, and he didn't wake me up."

Micah's mother patted his head and said, "Then you wait for him at home, I'm going to work with Micah's father."

Yuichiro nodded, but he was extremely depressed, why did everyone like to pat his head?

Mika's mother and father went out soon, and Yuichiro ran into Mikael's room directly, intending to wake him up fiercely, so he didn't want to wait for him to get up, when will he wait.The black-haired boy carefully opened the door of Mikael's room, and Yuichiro successfully invaded. Since he was eight years old, he has rarely entered Mikael's room. Micah really rarely took him in to play anymore, even when he was doing homework, it was just done in the living room of Micah's house.

His room must be messy, so he didn't let himself see it.Yuichiro always used this reason to comfort himself.

But after entering Mikael's room, it was different from what I had imagined. Mikael's books and clothes were neatly packed, and even the birthday present Yuichiro gave him every year was neatly arranged on the side of the table.Mikael turned on the air conditioner, and the cool air felt extremely comfortable on his skin. It was slightly cool. He was sleeping on the bed, with a thin blanket covering half of his body. His pale golden fluffy hair was somewhat messy, and his eyes were natural. Closed tightly, slept very peacefully.

Yuichiro quietly squatted down beside his bed, propped his chin with his hands, and looked at the boy in front of him seriously.Compared to before, Micah looked more handsome, and he squatted beside the boy's bed, watching quietly.

The room was quiet, but it was so beautiful, Yuichiro suddenly wanted to look at the beautiful, angel-like boy in front of him quietly like now, even at the last second of the end of the world.

When Michael woke up, the first person he saw was Yuichiro.Mikael was not surprised that Yuichiro came to his house, because he didn't take him out to play yesterday, and he would definitely come to "seek revenge" today, but he didn't expect Yuichiro to come to his room.

Mikael yawned lazily, straightened up, and found that Yuichiro was still looking at him, showing signs of being in a daze, so he pinched his face amusedly, and laughed in a hoarse voice because he just got up :"so early?"

Yuichiro, who came back to his senses because Mikael pinched his face, gave him an annoyed look, suddenly remembered his purpose, and angrily accused: "You didn't take me out to play yesterday! "

Michael said unhurriedly: "Who told you to sleep like a pig."

"You are like a pig!!"

After changing his clothes, seeing Yuichiro still puffing his cheeks, frowning, exuding an air of "I'm very angry", Mikael smiled, stroked his black hair, and said, "Little Yu, don't be angry." , how about I treat you to a lollipop?"

"I'm not a child!" The black-haired boy gave the blond boy a fierce look.

Seeing that Yuichiro's anger showed signs of rising, Mikael thought for a while and said, "Don't be angry, how about I promise you one thing?"

Yuichiro raised his head immediately, and asked half-believingly, "Really?"

"Really." Michael nodded helplessly.

"Then... I want you to kiss a boy!"

"Bai, idiot, this won't work!"

"You said you promised me, but you go back on your word and ignore you!"

"..."

Stars filled the dark night sky, the nose was filled with fresh air, and the sound of cicadas fluttered in the forest leaves. Mikael took Yuichiro's hand and walked to the park. After a long pause, he said: " Xiaoyou, although I haven't kissed a boy, but..."

"I can also play with you tonight, there is a surprise."

Yuichiro didn't answer, just turned his head awkwardly and snorted.

The park at night is very lively, and it is very noisy between people coming and going.

"Xiaoyou, hold my hand tightly, and be careful not to get lost." Michael whispered.

"..."

Some people fly Kongming lanterns in the open space, and the Kongming lanterns with people's wishes written on them are all released into the sky and float to places that no one knows.

Yuichiro raised his eyes and stared at the countless Kongming lanterns emitting candlelight in the night sky. The crowd was getting bigger and bigger. Mikael and Yuichiro were stuck in the middle of the crowd, and it was very difficult to get out.

"Micah, I hate you!" The crowd made it very difficult for Yuichiro to breathe, and Yuichiro was so angry that he slapped Mikael on the back a few times.

"Be patient a little longer, there will be surprises later." Mikael's smiling eyes were bent, and his tone was much gentler.

Facing his words, You really calmed down, as if something was buried deep in his heart, and then slowly took root and sprouted after being watered.

The two finally rushed out of the crowd, Micah and Yu looked at each other's distressed appearance, and both laughed, but Yuichiro had stopped being angry a long time ago.

"Surprise?" Yuichiro asked awkwardly.

"Hush, wait, luckily it's not too late." Michael took his hand and counted down to three in a low voice. Just as he finished speaking, there were one or two explosions from somewhere, and the fireworks exploded in the night sky. In the picture, the pattern is Yuichiro smiling, and there is a big word "Xiaoyu".

Yuichiro's heart was inexplicably moved, and his eyes widened as he watched the fireworks continuously blooming in the night sky.

"Don't be too touched. I just went to try it after hearing from Xiaoya that there was a very good fireworks shop nearby. Are you not angry?" Mikael's tone was a little stiff, but a smile appeared on his fair face. Suspicious blush.

"Well, I'm not angry anymore."

Michael was very grateful for being able to cheer him up with such beautiful fireworks when he was angry and unhappy.

…………

On the way home, Mikael suddenly suggested to catch fireflies, Yuichiro was very excited to try.Although there are fireflies in the grass in summer, there are also many mosquitoes. Because the two caught fireflies, the result can be imagined...

"Ding-dong-" the doorbell rang.

"Here we come." Micah's mother responded, and hurried to open the door, but couldn't help laughing when she saw the person in front of her. "What did you two do? How did you become like this? Hahaha..."

Michael touched his face helplessly, the uneven feeling made him suddenly want to hit the wall.It's so itchy... Yuichiro wants to cry but has no tears. If he had known earlier, he would not have gone to catch fireflies with Micah. What a pity.

On the day Yuichiro was admitted to the best middle school in the market, Yu's mother was very happy, saying that she asked Yuichiro to call all his classmates and friends to the house to celebrate.Celebrations must be prepared. You were sent by his mother to the store early in the morning to buy tools and food for the celebration. He didn't want to go alone, so he woke up Mikael ferociously, and went to the store together.

Michael put on a blue and white plaid shirt and black jeans today. His hair, which he has been too lazy to cut, has grown a bit. At first, Yuichiro helped him tie a short ponytail as a prank. Michael didn’t mind it, but just yawned. Complaining again and again: "Wake me up early in the morning, can't you go in the afternoon?"

"No way." Yuichiro shook his head and said, "They will come tonight."

Mikael sighed helplessly: "Aren't you going to celebrate in a few days? Celebrate before you're ready..."

"My mother is in a hurry." Yuichiro said with a chuckle.

The store is not very far away, as long as you go downstairs and turn a few turns, you can see the entrance of the store.The store was opened by Ichinose Guren, and Yuichiro and he had known Guren since childhood, and the store had been open for many years.

"Ring, ring, ring—" The moment the door was pushed open, the wind chime was picked up by the wind, and there was a crisp sound.

A man with black hair, a handsome face, and an ordinary white shirt was standing on a ladder, changing the light tubes on the edge of the ceiling.

Hearing the sound of the wind chime hanging on the door ringing, the man stopped what he was doing, turned his head, and saw two regular customers.

"It's the little ghosts, welcome." Guren greeted, Michael and Yuichiro often came to his shop as guests, and they were used to it.

The corner of Michael's mouth twitched slightly: "Can you stop acting like a bustard, it's really disgusting."

"You brat is still so poisonous." The black-haired man shook his head.

"Facing you, I don't want to speak softly at all." Michael rolled his eyes and said, "I want to go shopping with Xiaoyou. Is the food in stock?"

"Of course." Upon hearing that Mikael and Yuichiro were here to buy something, Guren pointed towards the distance with her dusty index finger.

Michael habitually held Yu's hand and walked towards the food area. The two began to pick out snacks. The boy reluctantly took the snacks from Yuichiro's hand again and again, and gently threw them into the shopping cart. In the end, Yuichiro felt that he had bought too much.

"Will it cost too much money?" Yuichiro asked worriedly.

Mikael smiled and said, "Don't worry, I still have money after you run out of money."

So the two snapped up a lot of snacks, threw them into the shopping cart, and walked to the cashier.

"Guren, we have to pay, come down quickly." Yuichiro called out to Ichinose Guren, who stood on the ladder and painted the paint after changing the light tube with innocent eyes.

"I chose it so soon? Wait, brat." Hong Lian's face was stained with a little red paint, which looked very funny.

After the two paid the money, Yuichiro picked up the snacks and strode home. Mikael sighed helplessly again, carrying the full snacks in his hand like Yuichiro, and walked behind the black-haired boy.

After returning home, Yuichiro was going to help his mother cook. The smell of the food wafted through the house, making mouth water. After Mikael returned to his home, he came to visit him again.

"Micah, you're here, do you want to eat?" Yuichiro held the spatula in his hand vigorously and waved it at him.

"Be careful." Michael couldn't help but said.

"Got it." He put down the spatula, ran to the blond boy, and said, "Mom has prepared curry, cola chicken wings, grilled fish and many other delicious meals today. It's still noon, do you want to eat first?"

"No, my mother has already cooked, and I'll go back and eat later." Michael sat comfortably on the sofa, "I just want to ask you, who did you call here today?"

Yuichiro said with a smile: "Yoichi, Crowley, and a few classmates in the same class, I don't know many people well."

"Crowley?" Mikael frowned slightly, he knew Yuyi, he was a good friend with You since elementary school, but Crowley... had no impression.

"Yeah, Crowley." Seeing Mikael's question, Yuichiro became even more excited: "Michael, do you still remember when I drowned in the river when I was a child?"

Michael nodded. He remembered this incident very clearly. At that time, he almost thought that he would lose him.

At that time, Yuichiro was only nine years old. He was playing for a while, and he was going to swim in the river with Saotome Yoichi and a few classmates. Mikael didn’t know about it, because he was arranged by his mother to go to a cram school during the summer vacation. .Fortunately, the river was on the way to the cram school. After finishing the cram school, the sun was setting. Michael was carrying his schoolbag, and suddenly saw Yuichiro playing in the river with a few classmates in swimming trunks.

Mikael's face turned red slightly, and he was about to say hello, but he saw Yuichiro's body suddenly disappear in the river, his hands waved a few times on the river surface, and then slowly sank to the bottom of the water.

Mikael's face changed suddenly, and he ran to the river in a hurry, with an anxious expression: "Xiaoyou!!"

He saw Yuichiro's classmates and Yoichi swimming up from the river, before he could ask his classmates why they didn't save him, Mikael threw his schoolbag aside and was about to jump into the river, another The fast figure jumped into the river first, and within a few minutes, that figure suddenly surfaced again, holding the unconscious You in his arms and ashore.

"Xiao Yu!" Mikael hurried to Yuichiro's side, but seeing Yuichiro's eyes closed tightly and his face turned pale, he was also a little frightened.

"Don't be in a hurry, put it on the ground quickly, you don't want him to live?" A cold voice sounded in his ears, Mikael raised his head, but saw a very handsome face, with black braids tied low and wet The young man looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he was as calm as an adult at this moment. That was the first time Mikael saw Crowley, and he was also the one who rescued Yuichiro. people.

Afterwards, Michael saw that Crowley was doing Yuichiro's chest and heart squeeze. In short, the atmosphere between Michael and Crowley was very disharmonious. Although the young man was doing good deeds at the beginning, his tone was bad , So, to Michael, Crowley was a person he was grateful for, but also hated.

Crowley often lives abroad, and at that time he only returned to China for a summer vacation. Later, after getting acquainted with Yuichiro, Yu often used chat software to chat with Crowley on the Internet, but in recent years Michael has also slowly I didn't see Yuichiro surfing the Internet anymore, so Crowley was gradually forgotten by him.

Now that Crowley is coming back, it means that Mikael will have to live a life of being bullied by Crowley and ignored by Yuichiro again.Although Michael's mental activities were very complicated at this time, he still calmly asked Yuichiro as usual: "I remember, how long will he be back?" Please, it's just a few days, don't take too long!

"I don't know, but he seems to be planning to live in the country for a long time." Yuichiro thought for a while and replied thoughtfully.

"..."

In the evening, friends rushed to Yuichiro's house one after another, and Yu's mother was very busy. She planned to treat everyone to a sumptuous dinner and barbecue tonight.This house is actually the house that Yuichiro's father lived in before, and it has a balcony. It is very big. After the divorce, the custody of this house and Yuichiro were handed over to Yu's mother.

Thinking of his father, Yuichiro lost his mind for a moment. After his father and mother divorced, he never saw him again, and even his father's appearance was gradually blurred in his mind.In fact, it's not that Yuichiro didn't want to see his father's photos, but that his mother burned everything about his father, even the photos, as soon as he moved here, and the things that smelled like his father slowly turned into flames. Black, finally turned into smoke and dust, disappeared into the clear sky.

If he hadn't loved him and is still in love now, how could his mother care so much about the existence of his things?

Does love bring happiness or pain?

"You-kun, congratulations on being admitted to Digui Middle School." A male voice rang in his ear, and Yuichiro came back to his senses, and found that the person talking to him was his best friend Yoichi.

Yuichiro hummed subconsciously, but saw a trace of jealousy suddenly flashed in Yoichi's eyes, but it was only for a moment, and that trace of jealousy disappeared like a hallucination without a trace.Yuichiro even felt that it was definitely an illusion, how could such a good Yoichi be someone who is jealous of him?

"I'm not as lucky as you. I just got into an ordinary middle school." Saotome said with a smile, "But we can still be good friends in the future."

"Of course." Yuichiro nodded, "You are my best friend."

"That's good." Hearing this, Yuyi smiled as if relieved.

"You, can you come here?" His mother called him not far away.

"Understood! Come here now!" Yuichiro replied, and comforted Yoichi again, telling him that the food was all on the balcony, and if he was hungry, he could eat some by himself.Yoichi didn't even have a chance to respond to him, and saw Yuichiro's short black hair flicking in the air, gradually going away.

Cursing his lips bitterly, he recalled Yuichiro's passion and dullness when he first met him, and all the kindness and love for him, even God favored him, his grades got better every time, and finally surpassed him as a good friend, He was admitted to Digui Middle School, but he failed, and was even severely reprimanded by his parents.

Why, obviously I am no worse than You...

Yu Yi clenched his fist tightly, and finally let go again helplessly.

He remembered that when Yuichiro drowned a few years ago, he was familiar with water and could save him, but selfishness and jealousy grabbed him tightly.He chose not to save him, pretended to be flustered, and went ashore in a hurry with a few classmates, but saw Mikael calling the boy's name on the bank, and even prepared to go down to the river to rescue him. Such concern is really enviable.

Seeing something wrong with his mother's expression, Yuichiro asked worriedly, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Youmu pinched the corner of her skirt helplessly, and after a long while, her lips that had been pursed all the time opened slightly: "You...your father will come to see you later..."

dad? ... Words that I hadn't thought of for a long time exploded in my mind, and then became clearer.

"Xiaoyou, why are you in a daze?" Michael's worried face suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

Yuichiro laughed a few times unnaturally, saying that he was fine, but Mikael sighed, pointed to the grilled chicken wings that were almost burnt in his hand, and said, "What's wrong with you? The chicken wings are almost burnt."

"Chicken wings!" Yuichiro immediately moved the chicken wings away from the fire pit, but the skin of the chicken wings had already been burned black.

The young man snatched the chicken wing from his hand, picked up the large piece of blackened skin with chopsticks, and asked in a somewhat forceful tone: "Xiaoyou, what's the matter with you? You are very wrong." Then he handed him the chicken wing, Beautiful blue eyes as clear as the sea stared at him closely.

Yuichiro turned his head, pretending nothing happened and said, "It's nothing, eat quickly, it will be snatched up by others in a while."

Seeing that he insisted on refusing to speak out, Mikael had no choice but to stare at him seriously: "Xiaoyou, I don't care what's wrong with you, but if it's really uncomfortable, I can consider crying on your shoulder." Growing up together, Playing together, how could he not know how the other party is feeling now?

"I won't cry." The black-haired boy lowered his head awkwardly, but his face turned red like a fire.

"Ding dong——" the doorbell rang, and Yu's mother ran to open the door, and the heat from the barbecue fire pit rushed towards her face, which made Yuichiro's mood even more difficult and tense. ...Is it Dad?

All the sounds around him were reduced to zero, and Yuichiro no longer heard any sounds. The only thing he heard was the sound of the leather shoes of the person who stepped into the door pattering on the ground, which was clearly audible.The mother's cry sounded at the same moment, but it was suppressed and extremely loud.

Yuichiro stood up from the seat suddenly, and the chair was pushed by him inadvertently, and fell to the ground.Everyone who was eating to their heart's content also realized that something was wrong, and Crowley, who was full of greasy mouth, rarely asked with concern: "Yu, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, you guys eat first, I'll go and have a look." Yuichiro smiled stiffly, and then rushed into the living room from the balcony.

Mikael also pulled away the chair and ran out after him.Yu Yi watched their backs going away worriedly, feeling very complicated in his heart.

The person who stood at the door and handed his mother a handkerchief to wipe his tears in a graceful manner was the father whose face was gradually blurred in Yuichiro's mind.As if aware of someone entering the living room, Yu's father raised his head and saw Yuichiro looking at him in astonishment, and smiled politely: "Are you Yu? Long time no see, I'm Dad."

"What are you doing here?" Yuichiro calmly looked at the man who already had some wrinkles in front of him very rarely.

Mikael was standing behind Yuichiro, looking at him worriedly.He finally understood why Yuu was so unhappy. He had seen Yuichiro who was joking and laughing many times, but this was the first time he saw Yuichiro who was so calm and calm now. He was afraid that the other party would collapse.

The man's smile faltered a little, but he still tried to say kindly: "You passed the God's Ghost High School, I'll come and see you, let's celebrate by the way..."

The black-haired boy tightly pinched the hem of his clothes, Yuichiro lowered his head, his mood was a little unstable, as if he was holding back something, he said, "Will you come to see me? But I really don't need Dad to come and see me."

Youmu quickly scolded: "You! What are you talking about? He is your father!"

At this moment, he only felt that his eyes were sore, as if some liquid was about to fall, but Yuichiro still held back, forced a smile and said: "But, did he fulfill his duties as a father? I was bullied when I was young." Has he ever appeared before? The only ones who have been protecting me are Micah and my mother.” As he spoke, his voice choked up: “This kind of father appears and disappears for a while, never protects me, and never teaches me what I don’t know. , won’t take me out to play, even after the divorce, I never blamed you, but it doesn’t mean you don’t come to visit me, I don’t need such a father!”

The scene froze for a moment, and the people who were lying on the roof door and eavesdropping also fell silent.

"Guren, is Yu really alright?" Midnight, who had been Guren's friend since high school, kicked the man's leg and asked.

"How would I know." Honglian scratched her head irritably, and said angrily.

"He will meet this kind of thing sooner or later, and his father will never stop looking for him. It doesn't matter whether he comes sooner or later." Crowley, who was wearing a gray vest and white jeans today, calmly analyzed.

"excellent!!"

Yumu's once gentle voice turned into a fierce voice at this moment, Yuichiro wiped the tears on his face indiscriminately, and rushed out of the house.The atmosphere at home suddenly cooled down, and Mikael frowned and said helplessly to You's mother: "Auntie, don't talk about Xiaoyou, if you look at it from your perspective, you must also love Xiaoyou's father for many years." Feel dissatisfied if you don't care about it, not to mention, you are still in love with Xiaoyou's father..."

"..." Youmu fell silent immediately.

What a headache, he really guessed it.As soon as he finished speaking, Mikael continued to say to You's father: "Uncle too, no matter what your reasons are, your concern for Xiaoyou is nothing more than that, you haven't visited Xiaoyou once for so long, You should also reflect on it."

Afterwards, Mikael also ran out of Yuichiro's house.

While eating melon seeds, Hong Lian sighed: "When will this kid Micah play cool? How courageous."

After Yuichiro ran out of the house, he didn't think about where to go at all. After running for a while, he was so tired that he gasped and lay down on the chair downstairs, and then he didn't move.

It was already night, the moon like a jade plate passed through the heavy clouds, hung high in the starry night sky, passed through the dense leaves, and gently fell on his face, the sound of cicadas singing suddenly and far away close.Yuichiro, who was still very excited just now, suddenly calmed down, and even regretted contradicting his mother.

Yuichiro sighed slightly, and then started talking to himself, obviously he wanted to see his father very much, but why did he accuse his father so excitedly?Feeling that it was still cold outside the house at night, Yuichiro pulled up his clothes, regretting his actions just now.

It was as if someone's laughter came to his ears, it was the warm voice he was familiar with: "Xiaoyou, do you want to lean on your shoulder?"

Yuichiro quickly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was someone's smiling face, who was familiar with him, bent down, and smiled so warmly on his face, that even made him forget those unpleasant things things.

Yuichiro straightened up from the chair, sniffed, his voice softened from crying just now: "Mika, don't you want to barbecue with everyone?"

Mikael replied with a smile: "Some idiot is crying outside, I won't ignore it."

"...I don't know how to cry!" Yuichiro glared at him angrily, the corners of his eyes were obviously red and swollen from crying, the boy shouted dissatisfied.

"Got it, idiot."

Michael’s laughing voice rang in his ears, but his soft body was gently embraced by the person in front of him, and the fresh scent of mint-scented laundry detergent surrounded Yuichiro’s nose along with the soft summer night wind between.Even though we have known each other for many years, this is the first time for such a beautiful hug. No matter what the result is, Yuichiro will never forget that the man once chased after him anxiously, comforted him softly, and hugged the still struggling Own.
