The voice sounds a little distant. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because Mariko twisted her head to the side and wiped away her tears with her hands indiscriminately.

Twisting his face, Ah Chan couldn't stand on tiptoe to help Mariko wipe her tears, and when she turned her face to look at Ah Chan once, she only had a smile on her face.

What's the height, what's stubborn, the most annoying!

This stubborn person always keeps his sadness in his heart and doesn't say anything. At A-chan's suggestion, A-chan and Mariko went to the supper stall near Mari again, and bought wine again.

Mariko was drunk.

Fortunately, Mariko's thin body has always been the benchmark for AKB, and although it took a little effort, A-chan reluctantly moved Mariko to the bed.

By the time A-chan brought back a glass of boiling water, Mariko had curled up in the corner of the bed and seemed to be asleep. If it weren't for the tears that kept flowing, A-chan would have preferred to believe that she had entered a sweet dream.

“mariko。 "Ah Chan tried to call Mariko's name, but Mariko didn't react at all, it seems that she was indeed asleep, but she didn't dream of a sweet dream, maybe she dreamed of something similar to tonight.

Sigh inaudibly. A-chan returned to the bedroom again, with an extra hot towel in his hand, hoping to use it to wipe away Mariko's tears. Unexpectedly, as soon as she got close to Mariko, Mariko shrunk herself tighter and buried her face deeply, as if she could retract into the protective shell, as if she didn't have to face the whole world anymore.

A-chan's hand holding the towel suddenly stopped in the air and cried. Mariko wakes up to the smell of food.

How can there be a smell of food at home? Maybe it's a hallucination caused by not getting enough sleep. While reminiscing about today's trip, I put on my sweater and walked to the living room in a daze.

"Ahh Sauce?"

Blinked in disbelief. That's right, Ah Chan is wearing her blue printed panda apron and smiling at the dining table, her bright eyes reminiscent of clear spring water.

Mariko hurriedly put on the half-worn sweater, and didn't know why her face was flushed. Looking at the red ball's face, A-chan let out a chuckle of "poof", such a mariko is really cute.

Mariko scratched her hair in some embarrassment, not paying attention to the strand raised above her head, only thinking about how to change the topic:

"Arnold, Ah Chan really looks like a virtuous wife, blessed are those who marry Ah Chan in the future"

Hiding the sweet smile after hearing this, Ah Jiang lowered his head and pretended to be calm and put the dishes and chopsticks in his hand on the dining table:

"Well, let's cook for Mariko every day. ”

"Huh?" Before he could understand the meaning of Ah Chan's words, he was already beckoned by Ah Chan to sit down at the table. Mariko, who hadn't eaten all day yesterday and hadn't touched any food at all, felt hungry at this time.

Compared to Mariko, who chews on food heavily, A-chan, who regards breakfast as half of his life, does not move at all, and all of A-chan's attention is focused on picking up vegetables and adding rice to Mariko.

"Arnold," Mariko's voice was slurred, and Mariko struggled to swallow the food in her mouth before she continued, "Why don't you eat A-chan? ”

Unexpectedly, Ah Chan, who heard this, was silent.

[Eh~ Could it be true?] Mariko, who was wide-eyed, conveyed such a cheating daddy's complaint with her eyes, but she didn't stop stuffing new food into her mouth.

Ah Chan bit her lower lip, as if she was making some important decision, and suddenly raised her head, and her cautious expression almost made Mariko choke on food.

Mariko hurriedly swallowed the food, and politely looked back at A-chan with the same serious expression, and A-chan slowly spoke:

"Does Mariko like me?"

The first reaction was that A-chan was joking. However, A-chan's serious expression makes Mariko realize that this is not a joke.

A-chan nervously grabbed the corner of the tablecloth in her hand, and if Mariko found that her exquisite tablecloth was ravaged like this by A-chan, she might be distressed.

Before A-chan completely tore off the tablecloth, he finally waited for Mariko to answer:

"Like. ”

Before answering this sentence, Mariko recalled the minutes and seconds with A-chan, every heartbeat, and involuntarily doting on A-chan, yes, it turned out that this kind of feeling was like.

The accumulated courage seems to have been encouraged, Ah Jiang used his best strength to look directly at the person in front of him who has loved him for so many years, he didn't want to escape at this moment, he just wanted to be brave for the person in front of him at this moment, and he only waited for this person's response at this moment:

"I want to be in a relationship with you, Mariko. ”

However, Mariko's eyes didn't look at A-chan, but just stared at the water cup in front of A-chan in a daze.

This water cup and the water cup in front of him are a set, both of which are sent by Yangcai, and Mariko seems to be able to hear Yangcai's voice "Mari-chan, others are not allowed to use this cup~" "Hmph, Mari-chan is good for everyone, but Yangcai has to take the first place." ”

Thinking of this, it seems that my heart is still aching. I'm sorry, A-chan, the monopoly of the first place is the exclusive right of Yangcai, and I once promised it in my heart. Just like this cup, there is no other way out of this fate than to break.

Therefore, Mariko, who had been silent for a long time, did not hesitate any longer:

"I'm sorry, I can't. If I just liked the girl named Yona Kojima, I might try to date you. However, I love her, and I will not be with her, but I who still love her, and I will not be with anyone. ”

It was as if the world had collapsed in an instant, and I had finally waited for an answer. Is there a more direct refusal than that?

"Well, thanks for taking care of me for so long. ”

A-chan bowed deeply and fled the scene like a fire, because without this, the tears could no longer be suppressed.

So, A-chan didn't hear Mariko's muttering.

"I can't, just because I like you, A-chan. ”

Mariko is locked deep into her own world. After Yuko gave her a wordless phone call, Mariko knew that Yuko and Yona had found out about her that day.

Yona also sent an email, but it was like nothing had happened, just asking her to hang out with her. [I'm sorry, Yona, I'm not ready to face you and Yuko, so I can't reply to you.] Mariko, who thinks like this, silently turns off the phone screen every time she receives an email from Yona.

For A-chan, at first Mariko could feel that A-chan was running away from her, but perhaps because she saw the closure of Mariko's heart, after Mariko sat in the corner of the preparation room for several days, A-chan chose to sit by Mariko's side.

All the news about Yangcai was brought by A-chan.

Every time I see A-chan pretending to talk about the news about Yona, a dull pain fills Mariko's chest. If the heart hurts sharply when he thinks of the scene in Yangna, then such a sauce will make Mariko feel a dull and unspeakable pain.

"Don't say it, A-chan. ”

This time, Mariko finally couldn't help but stop A-chan.

A-chan raised her head and saw Mariko's brows furrowed, moved her lips, but still didn't continue the topic of Yona, and lowered her head to look at her toes again. After being silent for a while, Ah Jiang suddenly opened his mouth again:

"Mariko, can I give you a hug?"

Mariko was stunned for a moment, but still nodded. A-chan buried her body deeply in Mariko's arms, wrapped her hands tightly around Mariko's waist, and didn't speak. After a while, Mariko felt the sobbing of the person in her arms, and A-chan cried.
