I just want a single ending

I treated Goto Ichiri as a friend, but she actually treated me as her boyfriend.

It's like repaying kindness with hatred!

"..."

At this moment, Goto Ichiri's mind was in a mess.

Before her sister said that, she thought her welcome ceremony was relatively successful.

At least, there were no accidents.

And now it was all over.

"Um, that boyfriend and girlfriend thing is just something my sister Erli made up. I just told my family that a friend was coming over..."

Goto Ichiri stammered as he explained, trying to prevent them from having some strange misunderstandings about him.

Although I did lie about having a boyfriend online in order to appear current.

But in reality, she never said it, let alone at home.

At most, he just said that he really has friends.

What's more, I already have friends in real life now, so that statement is not a lie.

"I think I understand." Ijichi Hongxia wasn't the type to easily develop prejudice against others. "Anyway, thank you for preparing so much for us."

"Oh, you're welcome. This is what I should do."

Seeing them angry about this, Goto Ichiri was so moved that he almost cried.

"But, can you let us go in first? It's really not good to stand at the door all the time." Ijichi Hongxia reminded in a low voice.

"S-Sorry, please come in."

Only then did she realize that this was the most important thing at the moment and quickly moved aside.

"excuse me."

Kamikawa Suzu and Ichichi Hongxia said in unison.

Taking off my shoes and walking up to the entrance was the only way I could officially enter her house.

"By the way, this is a gift. Please accept it. I hope it suits your taste."

Kamikawa Su took out a box of beautifully packaged snacks from his bag and handed it over.

This was bought by him and Ichichi Hongxia together as a token of appreciation for their visit.

"OK, thanks."

Goto Ichiri took it with gratitude.

Judging from the packaging, it was something she would not normally come into contact with.

The main reason was that she couldn't go to a dim sum restaurant or something like that by herself, and she couldn't even get through the door.

Before they could say anything else, Goto Ichiri's parents, her sister, and a dog came out of the living room.

"Look, they are my sister's boyfriend and girlfriend."

Goto Jiri pointed at Kamikawa Susumu and Ijichi Hongka who had just entered and introduced them to his parents.

"..."

Kamikawa Su could clearly feel the strange and complicated looks in Goto Ichiri's parents' eyes when they looked at them.

So, he hurriedly explained: "Uncle and aunt, please don't misunderstand, we are just friends from the same village, not so-called boyfriend or girlfriend, and we just came here to play today."

"It turns out it's not like that. It really scared us."

"Yeah, that's why it's impossible for Yili to have a boyfriend or girlfriend."

Goto Ichiri's parents seemed to be relieved.

"..."

Goto Ichiri was unable to refute this.

···

After sitting down on the sofa in the living room, Goto Ichiri's father, Goto Naoki, sighed:

"It was so touching. I never thought I'd see friends from a village come to her house to play with her."

"Yeah, when Yili said yesterday that a friend was coming over, I thought it was probably a delusion or a fantasy."

Goto Ichiri's mother, Goto Michiyo, was also deeply moved.

"I already mentioned the name yesterday."

Goto Ichiri was referring to the banner, which she couldn't hang up by herself.

“It’s too easy to just pick a few random names. There’s no credibility.”

Goto Naoki shook his head. He would not so easily believe that his daughter would have a friend.

Ichichi Hongxia said apologetically, "We are sorry for causing you trouble by visiting us without permission."

"No, we're all very happy you guys are here." Goto Michiyo waved her hand. "It's our fault for not hosting you well enough."

"Let me ask, you don't provide a service like renting friends, do you?" Goto Naoki was still a little concerned about this issue.

Upon hearing this, Goto Ichiri's body stiffened.

Although this is indeed something I can do, why do my parents ask this question?

What kind of image do I have in their minds?

"No, we are genuine friends with Yili." Kamikawa Suku quickly denied, "It's definitely not a rental relationship."

"That's good."

Goto Naoki looked him up and down, then said, "What a surprise! Yesterday I thought you were a girl."

"Why do you think so?"

The name Kamikawa Suku sounds like a boy's name, it's impossible to associate it with a girl.

"Because I think it's pretty good that Ichiri has friends of the same sex. I can't believe she also has friends of the opposite sex." Goto Naoki seemed quite relieved.

"I already said it yesterday, Kamikawa is my male friend." Goto Ichiri defended herself weakly, thinking that her parents looked down on her too much.

"I seem to understand why Erli said he was Ichiri's boyfriend." Goto Michiyo suddenly realized this problem.

"Why?" Kamikawa Suzu and Ijichi Hongxia were also very curious about this question.

Goto Michiyo didn't say anything, but just blinked at her husband Goto Naoki. After being stunned for a moment, he also seemed to understand.

The reason for this misunderstanding is very simple. Goto Ichiri didn't know that her video account was shared with her family. Therefore, when she lied on her video account that she had a boyfriend and that he was a super handsome guy, they could all see it.

Coincidentally, Kamikawa Supo was indeed a handsome guy, and she said yesterday that a boy was coming to her house to play, so Erli mistakenly thought that it was really her boyfriend who came.

As for how Ijichi Hongka was mistaken for his girlfriend, it can only be said that it was because of the band.

Goto Naoki naturally couldn't give an answer, so he smiled and changed the subject: "When we heard Erli say that you guys were here just now, we really believed that Yili really had a boyfriend and a girlfriend at the same time."

"Huh? Did you two really believe it?" Ijichi Hongxia was very surprised.

Logically speaking, shouldn't we think that such an abnormal thing is fake at the first moment?

Naoki Goto, a retired guitarist, said this matter-of-factly: "After all, Ichiri has started playing in a band."

"Hahaha..." Ijichi Hongxia smiled awkwardly.

"I see."

At first, Kamikawa Su was wondering why Goto Ichiri's parents actually believed such unrealistic words.

But if this is the reason, then there is really nothing much to say, I believe it is normal.

This is the stereotype of the band!

No matter what you do, it won't feel strange.

It's amazing!

Chapter 42 Why are you coming to help me?

"I'm sorry my parents kept you guys talking for so long."

After bringing them to his room, Goto Ichiri said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, we had a great time chatting."

Ijichi Hongxia doesn't care about such trivial matters.

Kamikawa Suzu deeply agrees: "It's very relaxing to talk, and there's no pressure at all."

She even asked her father to take down the conspicuous banner, and he agreed easily.

"Hahaha……"

Goto Ichiri looked away guiltily.

She could see that they were having a pleasant chat with their parents.

So happy that I feel like an outsider.

I should be outside instead of sitting and chatting with them.

At the beginning, she could still occasionally say a sentence or two to prove her presence, but the further the conversation went, the more she couldn't keep up and had no idea when to speak.

On the contrary, my sister was able to fit in very easily, calling "Brother Shangchuan" and "Sister Hongxia" very naturally, it didn't feel like the first time they met at all.

Even if it was her dog, Jimmy Henry would just bark "woof woof woof" twice to attract its attention, and then chat a few words about puppies.

Goto Ichiri had to admit that his social skills were surpassed by his sister and the family dog.

"This is Pochi-chan's room, isn't it? It's really quite ordinary." Ijichi Hongka surveyed the room's layout. "It doesn't feel like we're in a cardboard box at all."

"what did you say?"

Goto Ichiri didn't quite understand.

Kamikawa explained with a smile, "You said before, 'Playing guitar in a cardboard box is so cramped, but it feels like home and makes me feel safe.' So on the way here, we speculated about what your home would be like, but when we actually got here, it didn't feel like that at all."

"Because this is where I usually play guitar."

Goto Ichiri was silent for a few seconds, then opened the closet door.

"..."

Kamikawa Susumu and Ijichi Kouka looked inside at the same time.

"That would be quite consistent with the environment in the cardboard box."

Looking at the computer and guitar inside, Kamikawa Su couldn't help but ask, "Your room is so big, why do you have to play guitar in the closet?"

Ijichi Hongxia didn't say anything, but just looked inside the closet with a frown, as if she had thought of something.

Goto Ichiri replied quietly, "I got used to playing guitar in there without realizing it."

She really likes those dark places because they give her an inexplicable sense of security.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to accuse you. I asked because we were planning on having you play guitar for us in the place you're most familiar with, but it's clear this closet is definitely not big enough for three people."

Kamikawa Su looked at the closet and explained his reason.

"No, no need. I can just play it here."

Goto Ichiri took his guitar out of the closet and sat down at the small table in the middle of the room.

Just let a shady woman like her stay in that kind of place. How can we let popular people like Kamikawa Suzu and Ijichi Hongxia condescend to go there?

"Then just imagine us as the audience and play guitar for us."

At this time, Ijichi Hongxia finally came to her senses and sat down opposite her with Kamikawa Susumu, acting as the audience.

"What do you want to play?"

Goto Ichiri was ready to play, but was at a loss as to what to play.

"You can play whatever you want, we don't mind."
