Chapter 25 (Finale)
Chapter 25 Perfection with Flaws may be the beginning of what he and her are looking for (the end)
As I walked through the hustle and bustle of the streets, I felt that the weather was even colder today than yesterday. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since the beginning of the apartment building, the Christmas music that has been surrounding the ears has never been interrupted, as if it is thought that as long as there is this music, the holiday atmosphere can be fully reflected, and then bring a little traditional decoration and so on, basically every store is like this, but no, I don't know who is seriously looking forward to enjoying this holiday. After all, many stores have already started New Year's promotions.
The snow on the streets has been largely removed, leaving only some traces of the snow that remained, and I think it was probably cleared by the hard-working workers in the early hours of the morning, so as not to disturb the festival.
The snow has stopped, and there is no thick snow, but the temperature is not very pleasant now, it is still very cold, and I even think that if I am not fully armed now, it will definitely be colder than yesterday. Not only coats and sweaters, but also leather gloves on their hands and scarves around their necks.
And next to me, walking side by side, side by side, was the Night Moon, who was almost equally equipped.
After breakfast today, Yono gave down the mission order for Christmas, referred to as "Holy Order"... Actually, at first I was absolutely against going out to shop or anything in this weather. But after all, it is a "holy order" ... Yezuki and I were assigned to buy Christmas trees and hats and costumes, Yono and Hayama were in charge of food, and Yukishita and Yubihama were the decorations.
That's how it was distributed, no one disputed it ... Probably, no one will be able to mention it.
[Last night...]
When I was still thinking about some messy things, Yeyue opened the topic, and there was silence all the way, suddenly breaking the silence, and when I looked back at her, her eyes dimmed a little, and she skimmed away like an evasion, pursed her lips, and continued to speak softly
[You are... Together...]
[Ah, slept together.]
Before she could finish speaking, I gave the answer.
Then there was a brief silence, and the silence was accompanied by the inconsistent footsteps between me and her.
[You... When you're together, is it all like this?]
[Hawkers, occasionally...]
It's just occasional... Limited. No, no, if it's often, probably ... Is it the end of the world... After all, it's not good to keep your heart racing.... Does she care about these things?
I glanced a little away, just in time to see Yeyue's somewhat absent-minded appearance, which had been the case since this morning.
[Occasionally... Also, too... After all, she is at the University of Tokyo, so we can't see each other every day...]
While nodding his head to himself, he was talking to himself about this pile of unauthorized explanations...
No, is it ....
After suddenly thinking of something, I suddenly stopped thinking about it, and then I felt as if my face was burning with fire, and I quickly turned my head away and looked into the distance while scratching my head with my hand and deliberately raising my voice
[Ah.] Well.. It's occasional, but it's just a simple sleep together, you see, I... No, I've been said before that I'm a "little rascal who abides by the law and the bottom line of morality"...]
Now it seems that this sentence is simply correct and cannot be refuted... So, as long as you define yourself as a little rascal, you don't have to worry about that.
[Oh, ah... Hmm...]
She seemed to be surprised by my answer and explanation, and she looked at me obliquely as she walked, her big eyes full of surprise and bewilderment, but after a moment she turned into curiosity, her lips moved, and she asked a few seconds later
[You... Has it always been like this?]
[It's said occasionally...]
Under the snow.. Occasionally, it will come down like a tiger and say a bunch of irrefutable things, and then it becomes the habit of a cat and occupies other people's positions and falls asleep peacefully. Sure enough, they're all felines, so the habits are basically the same, is it wrong?
[You... Didn't mention anything... Requirements?]
Night Moon looked at me with a stunned expression, as if she had discovered something new to be surprised by. Anyway, it's the appearance of high interest.
[What is the request?To whom?]
[Of course....]
Suddenly, Yeyue suddenly stopped her voice as if she realized something, then lowered her head, skimmed to the other side, and spoke intermittently
[No, no, nothing..]
Although that's the way it is said ... But what is it? His face became a little red.
After walking like this for a short while, about two minutes, Yeyue finally cast her eyes on me again, and squeezed her body to this side, and gently took my arm in an easy-going way and with a smiling face, her dexterous and slender hand quickly passed through the crook of my hand, unaffected by the heavy winter clothes, and when she came back to her senses, she had already completed the state of holding hands.
[What's wrong...] You..]
Now that we've come to this, is it necessary to hold hands together? And... It's a little tight. Glancing at that position, the pressure coming from me is no longer just holding on to this level... It's exactly the kind of force that prevents prisoners from escaping, right?
Yeyue shook her head gently, revealing a bright smile, and the wonderful smile was like the moment when the snow lotus bloomed, and she said happily
[I remember that before, when we went to buy stationery together, we also held hands like this.Obviously it was raining but there was no umbrella, and I was scolded by my parents when I went back, but then I was anxious to let us take a bath...]
[.... I can't remember anything so far away..]
In my mind, it's not like that at all... Sorry, I've done the same thing lately... But take a bath .... With her...
No, no, no, I was young and ignorant at that time, so...
I shook my head, put all these things behind me, took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed down.
She took her so far and kept going, and I don't know how long it took, Yeyue stopped, and it was a store that operated Christmas tree sales.... Ahhhh Anyway, our mission is to buy a Christmas tree.
Looking at it, she asked back
[Now take a look here?]
[Oh... It's all Christmas trees anyway.. It's the same everywhere. ]
The varieties are all the same, and the quality is almost the same, so the only thing that can be judged is the size, because there is no store you want to go to, so it looks almost the same anywhere.
[Let's go.] ]
After giving me a smile in return, she let go of my arm and walked into the store.
Ah, it was walked in, before I could react. Although there were not many people in the store, Yeyue still walked in confidently with a smile.
I looked at her in a daze for a few seconds, looking at the back that had become a little smaller, it seemed... Something was perceived.
It turned out that she... I'm always changing, I'm working hard.
Fate has added shackles to her, she has been desperate and lost, but who can completely deny this? Those who deny fate are stupid. But it doesn't mean that people who accept fate are smart, really smart people, only those who accept fate while seeking ways to change their fate, and make great efforts and sacrifices for it, even if they lose everything, they can persevere.
So, she is a smart person and a strong person.
But I also know that that's not all... Because at this moment, I have a sense of responsibility that she has given me - I firmly believe that as long as I turn back, I will definitely find that I will be standing not far away, so I can rest assured to hand over my back?
Probably.
If she and I were to put an end to what we had done before, it would be now.
But... Does the full stop have to be the end?
Answer: False.
That must be... The beginning of another story.
