"Ah, by the way, sushi sushi...... Pack ...... OK！ ”

With the words in mind, Reina neatly packed the finished sushi into a box and closed the lid - the bento was made!

Looking at the bento she made with her own hands, Reina couldn't help but smile, smiling and smiling, and before she knew it, her eyes were about to squint. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Reina Matsui, born in the third year of junior high school. As a student, the grades are excellent. As a girl, I like cooking, I like pineapple buns, I like—no, I want someone.

3 years in Group C, lunch break.

As always, Reina's figure appeared at the door. She leaned against the door and poked her head out slightly to look inside to make sure the person she was looking for was inside.

"You're looking for Kashiwagi, aren't you?" A classmate she didn't know asked, startling her. She quickly straightened up and turned back to answer. "Yes, yes. Is Kashiwagi-san, please? ”

The other party said that it should be there, and wanted to help her call Kashiwagi, and then entered the classroom. Rena breathed a sigh of relief - she's here, that's great.

Suddenly, Reina realized that since her classmates who didn't know each other knew that she was here to find Kashiwagi-san, she must have been too conspicuous recently, right? I often bring a lunch box to Kashiwagi-san.,Even though you're not in the same class, you want to be so close......

"Reina?"

The simple two syllables pulled Reina's thoughts back, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that her face was already hot.

"Reina, what's wrong with you? My face is very red. Kashiwagi had already been called out by his classmates, and he was standing in front of Reina and asked.

"Nothing...... "Nothing," quickly began to argue, "I just- ah, just had a spicy meal, so I blushed." ”

"Huh?" Kashiwagi was surprised, "Aren't you very spicy?" How spicy does that have to be to make you so hot that you blush? ”

"I ...... Ah, I accidentally choked on my throat, and I was spicy, but it wasn't too spicy. Having said that, today's bento ...... Please accept it. Already starting to feel a little at a loss, Reina hurriedly picked up the lunch box and stuffed it into Kashiwagi.

"Aren't we going to eat together today?"

"Today, I have to help my classmates review their homework, so we can't eat together." Saying this, Reina's tone unconsciously carried some regret. Hearing this, Kashiwagi tilted his head and smiled: "It's okay, it just so happens that I also have something to deal with with in the choir today." Bento – thank you very much! I always want to thank you for your hospitality, and I must return the gift when I have the opportunity. ”

Hearing her say this, Reina hurriedly waved her hand and said no. Really, making bento boxes is actually partly out of interest, and I'm not looking forward to returning the gift or anything......

"If you say you want to return the gift, you must do it." Kashiwagi's tone was resolute.

It seems that God said something similar? Gratitude or something? Reina thought to herself. She looked at the cross that Kashiwagi wore around her neck. "Kashiwagi-san's faith is very reverent."

"This?" Following Reina's gaze, Kashiwagi touched his cross, "Of course you have to be religious." Not only that, but also everything else should be treated with a reverent heart. ”

Truly. Reina nodded, then said goodbye to Kashiwagi and walked in the direction of her class.

Has today's heart been reached? Although the other party may not feel it. I recalled the conversation with Kashiwagi just now in my heart - ah, recalling the details over and over again like this, it's really a bit hentai.

This is a simple longing that began after Reina Matsui met Yuki Kashiwagi in the second grade of junior high school. And the object Yuki Kashiwagi is also a third-year student in junior high school, and his grades are in the upper middle. As a young girl, she is a little different from others and believes in God. Kashiwagi, who often holds a Bible in his hand, has a mysterious religious aura on his body, but it does not make Reina feel estranged, but wants to understand and get close.

- at the same point in time.

Tomomi Itano is writing a review at another school, and it is difficult for a girl to turn back after entering a rebellious period;

Yona Kojima was in a daze as always, dangling with her legs dangling from the side of the chair, living a leisurely life;

Mariko Shinoda repairs the schoolgirl who bullied her neighbor, attracting some undesirable attention in the neighborhood;

Yuko Oshima is lying on her back on the rooftop, soaking up the sun.

"I'm back—......" opened the door and said this habitually, but after seeing this empty home, Kashiwagi remembered that no one had come to listen to it.

Since the death of his mother, Kashiwagi has been the only one living in this small house. Every day, every day, the words are repeated: "I'm back." "Every day, every day, in the middle of a speech, I remember that I am already a person. However, it is a habit that has been cultivated for more than ten years, and I still have to say such a sentence every time I come home.

Even if he is already alone, but maybe his mother is looking down on him in heaven, then there should still be people listening to this sentence.

Kashiwagi reached out and stroked the silver-white cross to his chest.

Although there is only one person living here, Kashiwagi has been helping his mother with household chores since he was a child, so the house is still very tidy. A new high-rise apartment has been built on the vacant land behind the house, blocking the lighting and making the interior very dark, so that even the neat house will inevitably have a gloomy feeling when you look at the past.

Kashiwagi got a haircut and began to prepare dinner.

There were few ingredients in the refrigerator, and Kashiwagi looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally decided - it was good to scrambled eggs. It's just scrambled eggs, so it shouldn't be too difficult. So she took an egg out, thought about it, and thought that it would be better to take two for the sake of safety—with her own cooking level, she would probably have to waste one egg to make a plate of scrambled eggs.

"Ah, it's all broken...... "Sure enough, because the strength was not right, the first egg was directly knocked on the edge of the bowl and shattered whole." Hey? She looked at her hands, amazed at the strength of her hands. It's too exaggerated this time, no matter how hard you cook, you won't break the whole egg!

Forget it, just beat the second egg carefully...... So, carefully, carefully, ...... "da-da......" - this time, due to being too careful, the eggshell did not crack at all. "Ahh Kashiwagi, who was a little anxious by the egg, muttered, and then added some strength to hit - "Smack! ”

Again, completely shattered.

"Hiss......" Kashiwagi held his forehead, and he had no rut in the eggs. Forget it, let's just make some ramen today!

Kashiwagi's so-called ramen is nothing more than throwing noodles into a pot and boiling them, and at most adding some ramen soup stock bought at convenience stores to borrow the flavor, which is not enjoyable in terms of taste, but at most not hungry after eating.

Eating and eating, my nose is a little sour.

My mother's ramen is delicious.

I used to think that my mother would always be with me, and I had delicious meals waiting for me every day, and I didn't have to learn cooking or anything like that. At that time, I was too young to forget that one day my mother would always leave, until my mother's body was knocked off, fell to the ground, and lost her breath, that I realized that I was a human being, and that I would one day become a human being—if I was not strong, I would die.

But the chicks didn't even grow wings, and it was so difficult for her to be "strong".

Rubbing his nose, Kashiwagi began to want to finish the tasteless bowl of ramen as soon as possible. Especially after eating such a delicious bento at noon, this bowl of ramen is even more tasteless.

Finally finished eating the ramen, and Kashiwagi breathed a sigh of relief. Pursing her lips, she remembered the taste of the lunch box and immediately began to look forward to tomorrow's lunch.

"No, no, no." Kashiwagi patted his head, "I'm not ready to return the gift, how can I just start looking forward to other people's things!" "But it's a real problem to say what to give back. Cooking is absolutely not good, not to mention how good her skills are, Reina is definitely a cooking expert, probably not interested in what she makes. But if it's not something you make by yourself, sincerity is definitely not enough!

I thought about it and washed the dishes, but I couldn't come up with a good idea until it was time to work.

If mom is here, she should be able to give good advice, right? Before I knew it, I thought of this, and then shook my hair violently. What an incompetent fledgling who wants to turn to his mother for help when he encounters some difficulties, and this is not a very difficult thing.

Kashiwagi raised his hand, touched the cross on his chest, and then clenched it firmly!

Little by little, the sharp edge of the cross pressed into the flesh, and Kashiwagi reminded himself in a painful way that he could only rely on himself when he was alone. The so-called "faith" is only nostalgia for relatives and comfort given to oneself.

I'm ambivalent, right? On the one hand, he hated God for taking away his mother, and on the other hand, he religiously sought solace.

The house, which is blocked by high-rise residences, looks a little dark, and its long black hair is neatly comboed, standing alone in the house like a lonely soul. The house was tidy and tidy, except for some unreachable corners that were moldy.
