Extra: Perhaps, in the new world, she can find a place for herself (37)

Carrying my shopping bag, I slowly walked down the corridor on the second floor of the special school building. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it is the first day of the sports meeting, there are too few people here. The classrooms were mostly empty, and even the staff room was nowhere to be seen, so maybe they were all gathered in the playground. Well, at the beginning of this kind of group activity, there will always be a feeling of empty alleys.

At this time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun on the horizon was gradually turning red, and the residual temperature did not feel hot, and the occasional breeze blowing through the window was very cool.

When I arrived at the door of the student council classroom, I put my hand on the handle, but I hesitated.

――Will there be anyone else in the student council? or... I'm a little early, aren't I? It's ten minutes before the appointment.

Forget it, since you're here, there's no need to go anywhere, even if you don't come, just wait here. After all, not everyone can show up at the agreed place on time and on time.

When I opened the door, I was greeted by a classroom dyed red by the setting sun and desks arranged in a circle in the middle.

However, after these unchanged scenes, I saw the figure of a girl standing alone in front of the window looking into the distance, her hands gently resting on the windowsill, changing the double ponytail hairstyle that had been in her old form - the hair was now scattered behind her back, and a few strands of hair occasionally fluttered with the breeze.

In the slanting sun, it was so focused that my presence was not noticed.

I let out a soft breath in my heart, and couldn't help but rejoice that the awkward scenes I had expected had not come to fruition at all, and that it was a wonderful mistake to be so peaceful.

I let out a pretended throat-clearing sound like "uh-huh" as I walked over, which was probably the most unreliable opening line.

Liu Wei noticed such a sound, slowly turned around, and after confirming that it was me, he also responded

[Here it is..]

[Hmm.]

[... The distance is said to be a good time.. Ten minutes to go.]

As if wondering when I appeared, she asked, with a strange expression on her face.

[Ah.] Hawkers, generally, it's etiquette to arrive at the agreed place ten minutes early.. In the past, it was often said that .]

As I spoke, I scratched my head a little embarrassed and sat down at a table near her, and by the way, the shopping bag was also placed on the table.

In this regard, Liu Wei smiled lightly and nodded as if he was deeply touched by this

[.. What I heard was twenty minutes..]

With that, he walked over to the table and pulled over to a chair and sat down.

In this way, like the classmates who are side by side in class and keep a little distance, there is still a table between me and her.

Hm... That's fine

After a brief moment of silence, I broke the silence by glancing at her out of the corner of my eye

[... Actually, you still like to draw, right?]

[Hmm..]

[The.] Sorry for the painting you had at the time..]

[No need to apologize.] I probably, already know the reason for this.]

Liu Wei slowly turned around, turned around with the chair, faced my side, paused slightly, and continued

[... Actually, even if you don't need these, just tell me the reason..]

[But facts are always more convincing than words..]

I also turned it around with a little sigh

[If you just said, "You need the affirmation of others", you wouldn't accept it, right?]

When you need to be affirmed by others for your talents and what you like, you will have more or less another kind of resistance, but... For her, there will probably be no resistance, because from the beginning there was no need for others to think like this... There's no way you'll be able to listen to it, right?

However, it seems that Ichishiki did have a good review, those comments about the page design were conveyed to her...

No one can live in criticism and denial all the time, even if he is just a person.

Perhaps, this simple way won't do much, but if you can make her understand some of it... Even a trivial "reason" is enough.

Because.. She's stronger than anyone else.

I really think so, after the page is designed, the site is public... This year, the number of comments is much higher than the previous ones, because people are used to seeing the kind of computer-drawn pictures or simple photos as backgrounds, and once they encounter a slightly impactful picture, they will have the urge to find out... It's not all, but it seems to be the majority...

With a simple sketch and a realistic campus environment as the background, this is the first time this school has come.

Therefore, most of the comments are full of praise and support. There are even some students who rumored to the mailbox of the student union that they wanted a character sketch like this...

All she saw was these simple things.

That's enough, obviously you can say it in a few words, but you spare such a big circle.

Liu Wei shook his head.

[Actually, even if no one is sure.] It's the same.. I love to draw.. That's not going to change. ]

[Probably.] However, I think if I am praised like this... Let's be happy with the metropolis. ]

[... There's nothing to be happy about...]

I said this with a half-joking and half-sighing words, and Liu Wei shook his head and softly denied it without hesitation.

Don't do that... In this case, even if you are not convinced, don't deny it so bluntly...

I chuckled a few awkwardly times, slightly staggering my eyes from her

[Hm... I'm so happy..]

This is the truth, even if those praises do not belong to me, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart... Wonderful feeling too.

[Yes, yes?]

Liu Wei blinked, showed a curious expression, looked at my side, and then stopped talking

[...]

[Ah.] Anyway, I think it's a joy to be praised by others.]

[... Thank you. ]

... was thanked inexplicably.

For a period of time, there was silence in this inexplicable atmosphere.

Sitting still, both of them began to look out the window, but there was nothing.

[――I... There's something for you. ]

Now that I've made up my mind, I don't need any excuses or regrets, and I can only judge whether it's wrong or right or not, so I said the first thing in the direction I decided.

Liu Wei also withdrew his gaze from the window, looked at me calmly, and then shifted his gaze to the shopping bag that had been on the table from the beginning

[Is it..]

There was no direct refusal and no question why... Is it a tacit acquiescence?

Before I could move, though, her voice rang out again, and a rare smile appeared on her face

[I have something for you too...] It's a gift. ]

[Huh?]

What a gift?

Curious and surprised, she slowly pulled open the drawer in the center of the table and pulled out a box-shaped wrapped gift box, not very large, probably like a book.

Then, I stood up from the chair with it, and I nervously stood up and took the contents out of my shopping bag - it was a pair of pure white headphones, which were customized on the third floor of the shopping plaza with the appearance in memory and described in words as much as possible.

However, I can't tell what it is from the outside, because it is perfectly packaged, because it is said to be a gift, and the clerk wraps it in a beautiful box.

... In the end, it can only be regarded as an exchange of gifts... Christmas party...

I walked over to her with this while thinking about such a strange thing.

Just like the meaning of "exchange", when one hand hands out the gifts, the other gift is also received.

[[Thank you.]] ]]

After two different but synchronized thanks, they each smiled again.

Whenever people regret some decision they have made, even the one that makes them happy at the moment...

But who knows - if a person can't make a decision and act for it, that... Won't you feel regret and pain for this?

No, absolutely not, what you will suffer after doing so is definitely not just the pain caused by the "mistake", but the pain of losing everything.

So, even if you will regret it... I will continue to implement every decision I make.

Because ah... It is precisely because you don't want to lose it, you have to act on it and bear the awareness that the pain that may come later.
