"Don't you think it's too early?" Ah Wei, who had gotten up ten minutes early, felt groggy and asked where she was going to take a detour at the beginning of the summer, but she kept silent.

"Dangdang!" As he passed by the park, the boy finally learned his sister's intentions. I saw a girl squatting in the middle of the park, smiling brightly while feeding the pigeons.

"Eh, what are you going to do?"

Chu Xia didn't speak, with an expression of "do you still want to ask".

"Okay, I'll go say hi. For his sister wanting to bring the two of them together, Ah Wei felt crying and laughing.

"Good morning. ”

The boy deliberately made a detour to approach Nana in order not to scare the pigeon, but he didn't want to startle the other party, "Hmm...... Good morning. ”

"Why do you smile so happily. He asked casually, but unexpectedly, Nana's mood remained at a high point, and a comfortable smile was always on her face, "Look at that one, isn't it fat?"

"It's a little. ”

"Yes~"

In the end, Ah Wei didn't understand the reason why she laughed, but since she could make Nana feel so good, she still had to treat the fat pigeon.

"Can you give me a piece?"

"Hmm. ”

Ah Wei spotted the position of the fat pigeon and threw it away.

"I didn't get it. Nana said and threw a ball there, "How did you get fat?"

On the way to school, the girl suddenly stopped, "This is for you." As she spoke, she took out a bento from her bag and handed it to Ah Wei.

Actually, I have enough money for meals now. The boy wanted to say that.

“...... Thank you. ”

But it's okay to be greedy, right?

......

"I'm back. ”

"Early summer is back too. The company of his sister made the moment he stepped into the house not so painful, and after washing, Ah Wei found that it was already time to sleep.

"The tanuki it's gone. ”

"Is it the cat at home?" Although they are all ghosts, they can't see other of the same kind in early summer.

According to her sister's inference, Tanuki should have been crushed to death by the starting car while resting on the tires of the car, "Poor cat." ”

Ah Wei looked out the window, searching for the tanuki's figure, "Could it just be that he went out?" The kitten had been living in this house since he could see the ghost, and the sudden disappearance made him feel a little lonely.

"When will the early summer disappear?" The night wind was very comfortable, and Ah Wei kept looking out of the house, as if talking to himself.

"I don't know. My sister looked at herself in the mirror, obviously worried about her brother, there are many, many places, why is her body gradually becoming transparent?

......

Due to the fact that the school could not provide enough funds for the team, and only five members of the team agreed to pay for it, Inuyama Junior High School was unable to participate in the high school soccer tournament.

On the same day, the football players spontaneously organized an intra-team game, and the captain rarely did not go to work and joined the game.

The game was a bit bleak, with only 12 men on the pitch. The scattered audience was left after a few minutes. As time went on, even though no one wanted it to end, as darkness took everyone's attention, the game ended with a score that no one remembers.

Didn't make it to the tournament – everyone knows that there will be no competitions in school for a long time to come, and it won't be long before there will be a few people left who will continue training after school.

"Fortunately, Okami was able to go to the city high school and continue to play football. ”

"yes, that's amazing. ”

Ah Wei received an invitation from the city high school a few days ago, and the coach said that he could provide him with the opportunity to start, in addition to the school will also provide accommodation and a considerable scholarship.

I don't know how many times I was tapped on the shoulder, and a group of people from the football team began to leave one after another. Even though most of them can't name Ah Wei, they are all happy for themselves from the bottom of their hearts.

When he came to the goal, he touched the net hung up by the iron gate, and the boy thought: Inuyama's team should be disbanded like this......

"Have you handed over your duties to someone else?"

"Not yet. ”

"Don't give it to anyone. The teacher smiled wryly and said as if pleading, "Originally, this game was also won by two boys who love football, which caused a lot of trouble to the school......

"Let's go. Early Summer's voice pulled Awei back to reality, "Go home early, brother." ”

"Wait. The boy clicked on the screen of his mobile phone, and it turned out to be a message from his part-time worker, "The cold is fine, what time are you on the train tomorrow?"

"Rest well, don't send me. ”

"I'm going to send it, after all, we're colleagues who have been working for a year (≧∇≦)ノ"

"Nana's cold is fine, after all, her nose was so red yesterday. As soon as Ah Wei finished speaking, he found his sister staring at him with a dark face, "Yes, and suddenly my nose is red, it must be the flu!"

"What's in the words?" the boy noticed the abnormality in his sister's tone.

"Why, you're too sensitive. Although Chu Xia's tone returned to normal, he still made a grimace while the other party was not paying attention.

"National Competition ......" A Wei's eyes flashed with a strong light, and Chu Xia shook his head helplessly and sighed several times, but finally squinted his eyes and smiled comfortably.

As a ghost, the world she sees is becoming more and more blurred......

Following.

"Here's to you. The girl held a brand-new soccer ball in her hand, "I've been thinking about what to give for a long time...... That's all I can think of. Nana kept watching the football, and her voice became softer and softer, "I was so angry that I didn't know if it was enough......"

Knock, knock.

The boy flapped the ball twice, then held the ball in his arms, "Just right." ”

"Great. Nana's smile was exactly the same as Ah Wei's initial impression.

"It's okay to have a cold. ”

"Hmm...... It's okay. ”

As the train entered the platform, the girl's hair fluttered in the wind.

"For a year, my brother has been taking care of you. Hatsu bowed to Nana in thanks, while her brother had already turned around and was ready to get into the car.

"Give Nana a hug. ”

"Eh, why?"

"Really. Chu Xia pouted, very unhappy, "Anyway, if I'm Nana, I must hope that my brother will give me a hug!"

Looking at his sister's transparent eyes, Ah Wei hesitated for a moment and put down the football and luggage in his hand. He ran to the girl's side and embraced her with open arms.

The strange thing is that he was going to do what his sister said, but when he came back to his senses, his hands were tightly clasped around the girl in his arms......

Finally, the boy left the town where he had always lived, and the changing scenery outside the car window was completely occupied by the football in his hand.

"Sent by my girlfriend?" The uncle on the side just witnessed the scene where the two were separated.

It's not a girlfriend, Ah Wei wanted to answer like this, but when he thought that there would be more questions when he said this, he said lightly, "That's right." ”

"It's okay to make such a lovely child cry like that. The uncle pointed to Ah Wei's shoulder with his mouth, and he realized that his clothes were soaked with Nana's tears.

Did she cry?Avito thought for a long time, motionless, "She likes me?"

"Huh?" the uncle looked at the kid next to him with a surprised face, "Isn't it?"

"Nana likes me?" Ah Wei slowly got up and took off his luggage, "It turns out that Nana likes me......"

Looking at the back of the young man slowly walking away, the uncle muttered, "The children are so strange now. Then he moved his butt and spread his legs comfortably......

Why is she in the suburbs now? Ah Wei, who has returned to the town, has no clue.

"Shoes. The younger sister reminded that she noticed that her brother looked confused, and she continued, "Nana is wearing sneakers today. ”

"So she's going on an outing?"

Hatsu glared at each other, and then said, "If I were Nana, I would be dressed beautifully with my brother for the last time." Since she wears sneakers, it means that she will definitely go to a difficult place to walk next. ”

"So she's going on an outing. Ah Wei opened his mouth wide, looking like he suddenly realized.

"Stupid brother, shut up!" Facing her brother who had been thinking about her, my sister finally couldn't bear it anymore, "You forgot that she told you that there was a stream in the suburbs last weekend?"

Ah Wei realized that the girl had indeed invited him.

The surrounding area of the town is full of greenery, and although it is not a beautiful scenery, it makes the teenager feel very comfortable.

"This way. "There was early summer to lead the way, and after a few steps, the boy heard the sound of flowing water.

In the distance, a girl squatted beside the stream, occasionally dipping her fingertips into the water and drawing a line in the stream. But most of the time, she just looked at the water streaks like that, and there was no movement.

"Squatting all the time is not good for your knees. "That's what a former middle school coach used to say. Hearing his brother's opening remarks, Chu Xia covered his face, full of helplessness.

Nana's eyes widened, looked up at the other party, and then turned her head away and looked at the stream angrily, "I want you to take care of it." ”

......

After being silent for a long time, Ah Wei suddenly said, "Let's date." ”

"Huh?!" Nana forgot to wipe away her tears and stared blankly at each other with her glowing eyes.

"Be my girlfriend, okay. ”

“...... Well. ”

Watching his brother reach out and take Nana up, the younger sister in the distance showed an extremely satisfied smile.

The end of the dream.

"What would have happened to you if I hadn't turned back?" Ah Wei wondered what would have happened if he hadn't gotten out of the car.

"It's enough to see my brother win a game. "The figure of early summer is like an illusion, as if the sun shines a little stronger, it will completely engulf her.

In that case, will you stay a few more days?" Ah Wei thought to himself.

"But for my brother, I'm not completely reassured. Chu Xia stretched out his right hand and listed them one by one, "Can you eat well, can you graduate successfully......

“...... Do you feel lonely when you enter the house alone? ”

Turn right ahead to Inuyama Middle School, Ah Wei's footsteps are already slow and unnatural, "Is there a place you want to go, do you want to take a detour?"

"It's okay, just be by my brother's side. "Early summer finally told my brother to get along with Nana.

"But she's a good girl, and there's nothing wrong with her brother, so he'll make it to the end. ”

"Married?"

"Hmm!" Hatsu nodded vigorously, "How many children does my brother plan to have?"

"Please, I only confessed yesterday. ”

"Hee-hee, it's also ......"

Last night, the boy stayed awake all night, and every time he opened his eyes, his sister was like a kitten, lying on the head of the bed and looking at him.

Maybe she'll sneak away if I'm asleep?

......

"I'm not going in. In the end, his feet did not cross the school gate in the early summer, and the smile he barely squeezed out made Ah Wei's throat hurt very uncomfortably.

Faced with his sister, Ah Wei found that he couldn't do anything. He wanted to wipe away the tears of early summer, or touch his sister's head.

Thinking back to the season spent together, the only thing that brother and sister can do for each other is companionship.

"It's late. Hatsu Summer's palms swayed in front of her chest, and she said her final goodbyes to her brother.

"Thank you. After softly thanking him, Ah Wei turned around, he tried his best to maintain a normal walking posture, and even wanted to hold his head high, at least he wanted to leave a reliable back for early summer.

Only tears, as if to drain him dry, kept pouring out.

Before entering the school building, the boy turned his head and looked at the place where his sister was supposed to be, and finally burst into tears.

On the back of the wall, as the cry of his brother came to his ears, Hatsu Xia seemed to have fulfilled his last wish and left with peace of mind......
