People in Tokyo, the world is clear

In fact, that day, putting aside other so-called hypocritical emotions, he really wanted her to stay.

Want it so so much.

At that time, I thought it was just a simple impulse, hoping that a dream chaser would give it another try. But now, in the silence between us, I gradually formed a new judgment.

In fact, at that time, there was probably a more complicated emotion.

In other words, the fact that "I wanted you to stay at that time" becomes extremely inappropriate at this moment. If it is said, it will cause unpredictable consequences.

So, based on my final judgment, I realized that there is only one answer to the previous question:

"I can't remember clearly."

"so."

"that is..."

Lin Sen admitted that this was the first time he felt torment since his rebirth.

It's a feeling of being suffocated by something.

I really want to escape immediately.

But in the end, I still chose to be upright.

Turning around, he looked straight at the woman who was slowly pushing herself up against the bed.

"Really, I'm sorry."

The smile on her face had faded a lot. However, this time, it gave people an inexplicable feeling of being more sincere.

"It's okay if you can't remember."

She waved her hand, "Well, can we see each other tomorrow?"

"Okay. Get some rest."

"Will do."

However, at the moment he turned to leave, Lin Sen heard another sentence, which was quite soft and seemed to be just a soliloquy, but it was like a thunderclap in the captured last message:

"If you're only staying out of sympathy, then I'm only staying out of a dream."

"..."

Lin Sen had some difficulty remembering how he got home.

The journey was a bit confusing.

This is probably a very, very rare phenomenon for him.

However, there are similar experiences.

That's how I spent about ten days at the end of March.

But this example is something that is increasingly disturbing and even frightening.

It almost makes someone fall into confusion where they can't think or analyze themselves, and they are completely unable to extricate themselves.

In other words, I no longer have enough control to deal with reactions such as facial expressions and body language.

"Meow~"

When I came to my senses, I was already sitting cross-legged on the bed. In front of me was the orange cat, which had rarely been quiet. It quietly came over and took the initiative to pull up my pants.

"Meow~"

The orange cat looked up at its owner's face, then lowered its head and searched for his palm spread on his thigh.

Push your head forward and pretend to lift up your downward-pointing palms.

After someone obeys its action and turns over the palm, it will actively twist its neck, rub the palm of the hand with its ears and head, and actively ask for caress.

The humming sound coming from his throat was obviously a very proactive gesture of goodwill.

This reminded me of a long-held rumor: It's said that animals that spend a lot of time together gradually develop the ability to detect the mood of the person inside.

So, you want to express comfort in this way?

Lin Sen raised his hand, smoothed the fur on the orange cat Orange Juice's back, and then gently scratched its chin and head with his knuckles.

The little guy has always been very timid and not very friendly.

Perhaps influenced by its experience of wandering in the wild, it rarely takes the initiative to seek people to play with it.

At this moment, it takes some courage to take such an important step.

Lin Sen certainly understood this:

"Thank you."

I wanted to get up and go to the cabinet in the outer hall to get some cat food as a reward, but then I heard the sound of the fire being turned off.

"hiss..."

When I rushed out of the house, the girl with short hair had already placed the bowl on the table.

"Ito..."

"Kurosawa asked me to buy some pork and put it in her refrigerator. It's about to expire."

There were fried eggs, miso, boiled shredded radish and pork stew on the table.

It is considered to be the simplest, easiest to prepare and lightest food, and is also a common dish for home-cooked dinners and midnight snacks.

In fact, Lin Sen also didn't like the dishes ordered by Ms. Shiye, who had a unique taste, at the dinner just now. Probably except for the female host who was happily immersed in the food, the other three people present had similar perceptions of each other.

Therefore, the current scene should have been a warm aftertaste -

However, the original atmosphere was completely lost in an inexplicable feeling of guilt.

The young man sat down stiffly, looking away.

It's definitely a rather unusual performance.

Both people present knew it well.

However, the girl seemed to be acting the same as usual.

Sitting on the adjacent chair, she leaned slightly and put her arm around his left hand.

Leaning on his shoulder, I stared at him as he held the chopsticks stiffly in the air without making any move.

She didn't react at all, just gently ran her hand down his back.

Doing almost the same thing as the orange cat Orange Juice did just now.

But obviously, although it was a similar action, it brought completely opposite effects to the little guy.

It might even cause someone to have a faint look of shame on their face.

Take a deep breath and put down your chopsticks:

"Ito...don't you have anything to ask me?"

"I will only listen to what my seniors want to tell me."

That is to say, this performance was a bit too foul.

This even caused some surging emotions to stir up in the heart that was originally filled with sadness and silence.

But what follows is more complicated emotions.

Complex and profound confusion.

As a result, someone's already abnormal control tonight was further weakened.

He turned his head, hugged the girl as she moaned softly, and buried his head in her hair on the side of her cheek.

At this point, even a fool could probably figure it out.

Lin Sen knew that Miss Ito must have discovered that some accident had occurred in a rented house.

In other words, you may be able to confirm it the moment you return home dizzy and open the door.

But at this moment, she still said nothing, just put her arms around her waist and gently stroked the back of the person hugging her.

It is said that a hug is the best way to give peace of mind and strength - especially a hug this close.

So much so that after a while, the girl squinted her eyes because of comfort and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Finally I couldn't help whispering:

"This is the first time you've taken the initiative to hug me like this."

"Yes."

This answer could have been followed by a lot of conversation and questions, but Ito Nishika fell silent again.

Just wait quietly until he takes the initiative to initiate the topic:

"I feel a little uncomfortable."

"I know. Or rather... even Orange Juice noticed it."

"I don't know if it's okay to talk to you about this, Ito."

"What consequences are you afraid of, Senior?"

"You have a grudge."

"Do you think I would?"

"Yes."

The girl clenched her hand behind his back into a fist and tapped him lightly.

"Don't forget what I've always said. I'll never hold anything back from you. From that day on, I won't hide any of my feelings or thoughts from you."

"That's why I'm afraid and feel guilty."

"If I'm angry, I'll say it directly. If I'm dissatisfied, I'll tell you directly. But after I express it on the spot, everything will be over. I've told you, right? Whether we're lovers or friends, in the end, your choice will always be the most important."

The girl really acted as she said - she had been acting without reservation since some time ago.

Of course Lin Sen still felt hesitant and worried, but some things had to be faced.

I don't know if this decision is right, but I have a feeling that if things continue to pile up, it will get worse.

Are you ready to accept any outcome and punishment?

Action answers:

"Maybe I'm just feeling good about myself or something...but I've noticed that Qingshan seems to like me a little. I mean...you know."

I always feel that it is ugly when I say this.

But, in the end, I still have to be honest.

Gently releasing the long hug, Lin Sen stared into the girl's eyes.

She didn't seem surprised. In fact, she had already realized the implications of what he said, and just looked up at him.

However, it is clear that I am still a little nervous about the unknown content.

She pursed her lips slightly.

This expression made people want to retreat further. However, her words just now were obviously more powerful.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Then, I found that I also had some complicated feelings towards her."

"Does Senior like her too?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure. But on the way back from her house, I felt like I had let her down. Because..."

In the sudden chaos, it was suddenly difficult to organize my words.

Suddenly, he felt weak and his body was shaking.

"Well, Ito. You still allowed me to hold you... Yeah."

At this point, I suddenly couldn't help but hum.

Because, the girl threw herself into her arms, straddling his chair and body, giving her another hard hug.

The most obvious answer.
