【Asongichi Kara】Grow up

02

Before falling asleep completely, Yisong's arm always hugs him tightly, he has little strength, but the joints of his limbs under the T-shirt are distinct, which often makes Kongsong feel flustered.

At times like this, he never fell asleep.During all the time with Yi Song, Kong Song always kept his eyes open in the dark, turned his cheeks to sniff the scent in Song Song's neck, and carefully tucked the corner of the cup for him.This cheap hotel that Kazumatsu likes is decorated with a row of brightly colored neon lights. Sometimes, through the closed windows and thin sheer curtains, the lights are projected on the sheets, constantly intertwining red, green, purple, like A noisy and messy tune.

Kong Song closed his eyes, trying to echo that tone and beat, he hadn't touched his guitar for a long time, if it happened to rain at this time, he would secretly sing along to the sound of the rain in his brainwaves a few songs.

I love you

今だけは悲しい歌

don't want to hear now

闻きたくないよ

sad song

Yisong turned over.

"Yisong?" Kong Song carefully called his name.

"It's okay," Yisong replied vaguely, "I just heard the sound of rain suddenly, and now I feel sleepy, but I can still fall asleep, as long as you are by my side."

Kong Song nodded dully, his body stiffened in the quilt and he didn't dare to move more.He knows how precious it is to Kazumatsu to slowly enter the state of sleep like this. This is Kazumatsu's secret. I felt that the depths of my body were filled with warm emotions.

It's good, he said silently to himself, it's good to be needed.

Like stretching out his hand, stroking the cheek and forehead hair as if to test whether the other party is asleep, Kong Song had never dared to do it to Yi Song before.It's just that recently, this guy seems to have become less barbed. Why?

His hand hesitated, trembling slightly, and finally landed on the top of his brother's earlobe, sticking to the hot and soft skin, and slid along the arc there to the neckline.

Izumi didn't open his eyes.

"If you can't fall asleep, brother, I can sing a lullaby."

But Yisong didn't answer, he fell asleep.No matter how long the night is, Kong Song always spends it with him like this.

Early the next morning, Kong Song opened his eyes before Yi Song.He crept out of bed, took out the fresh-keeping box he brought yesterday from the small refrigerator in the room, put on his shoes and left the room.There were several unread messages displayed on the phone in his pocket, all of which were sent easily, with an interval of about an hour.

22:36 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

Brother Xiaosong is a little drunk tonight, I may have to go back very late, pack your lunch box yourself, go to bed early without waiting for me.

23:20 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

I'm probably going to be here all night, and I can eat the cheesecake in the fridge for breakfast tomorrow without having to save my share.

00:08 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

If you see Yisong, tell him that he is very worried that his brother can't find him.Seriously, this guy has been drinking crazy all night.Ah...seems very late, sorry this is the last entry.

00:09 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

Forgot to say good night.

07:15 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

Work hard.

Kong Song looked at the phone screen, it was 26:[-] in the morning, less than an hour before the official start of work.He sat in the hotel lounge, listening to the ding of the microwave borrowed from the staff, and took out the hot lunch box.

Yesterday's green vegetables have changed color, and the shiitake mushrooms have become a little listless, and they have lost their Q-bomb texture. It's a pity that they smelled so delicious when they were freshly made yesterday.Kongsong thought like this, and slowly swallowed the meals made by his younger brother. If Yisong didn’t want to eat them, he had to eat them himself. In the relationship, as an elder brother, the reward he can give is nothing more than staying by their side and watching each other fall asleep-compared to other elder brothers in ordinary families, it is really shabby and rare.

Kong Song borrowed the staff lounge to finish his meal, and took out his wallet as he passed the front desk to thank the hotel.

"Last night's room rate..."

He estimated that there should not be many.After all, it is a hotel that Yisong has to use for emergency and needs to be rented frequently.In the past, in all likelihood, Yisong was responsible for booking and paying the bill, but this time Kongsong wanted to bear this part of the expenses himself.

"The cost of that room was settled in advance yesterday." The staff member replied to him.

Huh?Kong Song blinked his eyes, then shoved the wallet back in embarrassment.Has it already been paid, he thought, although he has never asked, but where did the money Kazumatsu use come from?Can't it be taken from brother Xiaosong again?The other party has already worked very hard driving a taxi, so how can we ask him to bear this part together.In the final analysis, the heavy burden on the eldest man's shoulders was also caused by the uselessness of the second man.

In the middle of the work, Kong Song stopped what he was doing as if suddenly falling into a sluggish state, thinking:

The six of them live separately for the purpose of "growing up". As the eldest brother, Xiao Song is making money and taking care of Yi Song's life. Among the three brothers, now it seems that I am the only one who has not fulfilled my due obligations.

Kong Song sighed, holding the refueling gun and fell into a sigh.

His cell phone vibrated suddenly.Kongsong picked up the phone and found that it was Yisong calling, his tone sounded a little annoyed.Judging from the degree of hunger in his stomach, it is almost time for lunch. It seems that Yisong slept until noon. If he sleeps for twelve hours, I hope his spirit will be better.However, what greeted him was not a satisfied and comfortable voice after a good night's sleep.

"What do you mean?" On the other end of the phone, Kazumatsu said to him in a gloomy and depressing tone.

Kong Song felt a little panicked, he held on to the mobile phone sandwiched between his ears and shoulders, and responded with a short interrogative particle.

"I'm talking about putting money on the bedside table, what do you mean?" Yisong said again.

"Ah, that money..."

That money is the room fee, Kong Song originally planned to explain it this way.It is to repay the trust in me all the time, and the part that I should bear for you as your brother.He intends to tell Yisong that no matter when, for any reason, as long as there is a need, he can come to him at any time.

But a breath of relief sounded like a look of rage.

"Do you think it's great...?" he asked, "I've always paid for what you never asked. Wouldn't it be better to just be a useless smelly pine? Your only value is nothing more than Is it the same function as a humanoid pillow when I want to sleep, and I can’t get anything from it, so why pay this money? Or is it because I started working, so I also have the value of existence with those who deceive myself Do you think you are great like people in society?"

"I didn't—I didn't think so, Yisong—" Kong Song wanted to explain.

"Next time I do this kind of unnecessary thing, I will get out of my life like everyone else!"

But Yisong did not give him such a chance.After putting down the exasperated words, he hung up the phone with a snap.

Which link went wrong? No matter how hard he racked his brains, Kong Song still couldn't find the answer to this question.A new message popped up on the phone.

11:42 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

There seems to be an extra pot of vegetables in the bento box. Didn't you take away your lunch before going to work in the morning?

Kong Song hid behind the tanker, wiped his eyes against the light.He pursed his lips and wore an ugly grin when he replied to the message.

11:43 Sender Matsuno Koratsu

No, it's easy. Today I made an appointment to eat bread with my colleagues at the gas station.

11:43 Sender Matsuno takes it easy

Brother Kong Song, can you make friends too?I feel a little suspicious, but congratulations.

11:44 Sender Matsuno Koratsu

What's so suspicious about it!I am a person whose heart is full of love for the world!

Full of love for others, everyone wants to give it a good care, especially the most important brothers.However, because he didn't know how to use force, the 27-year-old Matsuno Karamatsu wet his only clean work uniform with tears like a useless high school girl.
