Looking at Mai Shiraishi, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, the two people in the ward were all confused.

However, Sakura Inoue, who is also a woman, saw some clues.

As soon as Mai Shiraishi entered the door, she focused all her attention on the man, and you could know that she didn't seem to be suitable to continue to stay here. . .

"Uh... Let's talk, I'll go out and buy some drinks. ”

After saying that, Sakura Inoue picked up the bag, pushed the door out as if she was running away.

In the ward, only Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Mai Shiraishi remained.

"Uh... Mai, sit down first. Pointing to the chair next to the bed, Kiyoshi Sakamoto greeted.

"Hmm. ”

Maybe it was Inoue Sakura's going out, maybe it was seeing Kiyoshi Sakamoto who was alive and well, and Mai Shiraishi's tears that kept flowing because of worry were also slowly drying up.

The girl came to the bedside, and as soon as she sat down, she found a hand holding a tissue in front of her.

"Wipe it off. ”

Mai Shiraishi raised her head and met in the air with Kiyoshi Sakamoto's gaze full of tenderness.

At this moment, Mai Shiraishi suddenly realized that she was crying like that in front of him!

It's so shy!

"Hmmm... I saw the girl stretch out her hand, take the tissue, turn her head, and carefully wipe away the tears on her face.

After watching the girl wipe all the tears on her fair little face, Sakamoto Kiyoshi asked, "Mai, why are you here?

Hearing this, the girl paused, and an embarrassed expression suddenly appeared on her face.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto naturally sees all this in his eyes.

He looked at Mai Shiraishi with some suspicion, and his tone was a little surprised, "You... You didn't tell Konno-san and came by yourself, right?"

“。。。 Well. The girl gently pinned the hair on her forehead with her hand, pinning it behind her ear, and her tone was a little erratic, as if she was not very confident, "When people saw the news of your injury, they didn't think too much... ”

Really!

Looking at Mai Shiraishi sitting in front of her, Kiyoshi Sakamoto couldn't cry or laugh.

"Let's not talk about that, how do you know that I'm in this hospital, this ward?"

"Uh... That one... The name of the hospital, the ward number is written in the newspaper, I asked the nurse outside, she happens to know me, and she also knows that I am your junior, so... There seemed to be a hint of joy hidden in the girl's voice.

Maybe it's because the nurse recognizes her, or maybe the nurse connects her with Kiyoshi Sakamoto...

"Oh, that's right... Kiyoshi Sakamoto was stunned.

Speaking of which, Mai Shiraishi's reputation today is not high.

The movie "I Heard that Kirishima is going to retire" has been well received since it was released at the end of September last year, and the release time has been continuously extended until March this year, when it was officially released.

And the screening time is as long as half a year!

The final box office figures are also very amazing.

6.5 billion!

This number directly made "I Heard that Kirishima is going to retire" successfully sit on the throne of the annual box office champion.

This is also the second film directed by Kiyoshi Sakamoto that can win the box office champion of the year!

In the declining year of the film that suffered a major earthquake, it can also achieve an impressive result of more than 6 billion, and I am afraid that the whole of Japan is the only one!

Therefore, "I Heard That Kirishima is going to retire", which coexists with box office and word-of-mouth, also won a number of honors in the awards season not long ago.

With this film, Kiyoshi Sakamoto almost won the best director and best film awards in the four major film awards!

As a beautiful flower in the movie, newcomer actor Mai Shiraishi also made her debut with this movie and won several newcomer awards.

Coupled with the scandal with Kiyoshi Sakamoto before, and Nogizaka 46, which attracted much attention as soon as he debuted, with multiple bonuses, Mai Shiraishi became the most dazzling and eye-catching newcomer in the first half of 2012!

Not one of them!

Therefore, it is only natural that the nurse will recognize him and come to the ward under heavy protection...

However, what Kiyoshi Sakamoto wants to know now is not how Mai Shiraishi got here, but why she came here!

After all, even if he was injured and hospitalized, Mai Shiraishi had no need or reason to leave his work and members behind and immediately rushed over from Tokyo, more than 500 kilometers away, to visit him.

She is neither his family, nor his girlfriend, nor a doctor, but just a junior who can be regarded as a close relationship.

Then why did she rush over in a hurry, and cry like a tearful person the moment she saw herself?

Thinking of this, Kiyoshi Sakamoto seemed to guess something, "Unless... ”

He looked at the girl, stared straight at the big bright eyes, and said nothing.

Under Kiyoshi Sakamoto's scrutinizing gaze, Mai Shiraishi didn't last long before she was defeated.

The little face flushed slightly, and his eyes were a little wandering, and he didn't know where to put them, but the lovely eyelashes that blinked seemed to tell the man in front of him the joy in his heart.

The girl's shyness was not expected by Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

However, it is this expression that makes Sakamoto Kiyoshi once again sure that a very important thing:

"Sure enough... She really likes me!"

On the plane back to Japan from Italy, he was somewhat aware that Mai Shiraishi seemed to have different thoughts about himself.

It's different from the respect and worship of the predecessors, and it's also different from the longing for idols and goals, but it's more about the kind of love for the boy you like.

This can be seen from the way Mai Shiraishi looked at him, as well as her attitude towards him.

It is precisely because of this that Kiyoshi Sakamoto consciously distanced herself, this girl who has "non-divisive thoughts" about herself, trying to let distance and time dilute her love.

The effect is there.

However, I didn't expect that an accident that I accidentally caused the love hidden in the girl's heart, and it instantly became out of control!

Coming to Osaka from Tokyo, this is very clear proof ...

Just when Sakamoto Kiyoshi was worried about how to respond to the girl's wishes, Mai Shiraishi, who was sitting on the chair, seemed to have secretly made up her mind.

She looked around and saw that the door to the ward was still closed.

At this time, in the entire room, there were only two people, her and Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

This is a very good opportunity.

An opportunity to pour out your truest emotions to the person you like!

That's it!

I saw Mai Shiraishi stretch out her hands, grabbed Sakamoto Kiyoshi's left hand, and then responded with a smile that was enough to overwhelm all beings with a surprised expression on Sakamoto Kiyoshi's face:

"Sakamoto-kun, I... ”
