When Kazuya watched Kirino flee in the wilderness, he didn't even understand what was going on. He sees Kirino appear and then prepares to stop Ayase, itself to prevent Kirino from knowing about Ayase and his problems. Although Kazuya knows that Kirino guy is also a brother control, but when looking at other people and looking at himself, the specific value judgment scale will be deviated, and Kazuya is very clear about this.

So, Kazuya was naturally ready to stop Ayase, but when Ayase said her words in an extremely firm tone, Kazuya's idea was the simplest, how to minimize the impact of Kirino knowing about it.

At the end of the day, Kazuya still trusts Kirino and likes his brother too, and is still Ayase's best friend, and Kazuya doesn't believe that Kirino will make any drastic moves, but he still made a mistake. He was sure that Kirino had heard Ayase's confession.

Of course, he also saw the scene of Kirino's escape next.

Kazuya felt that he was a little confused.

In comparison, Ayase, who didn't notice this at first, reacted faster in front of him - or rather, Ayase might have thought about such a situation many times in his mind, so almost the moment Kirino ran away, Ayase reacted immediately and chased after him.

However, compared to Kirino who has practiced sprinting for many years, Ayase's gap is still too big, not to mention, she is still wearing the kind of small leather shoes she is used to wearing during shooting. Therefore, before he ran a few steps, looking at Kirino who had almost disappeared from his sight, Ayase could only stop his steps helplessly.

And at this time, Kazuya finally reacted, came to Ayase's side, gently touched her head, and said: "This time it's really a special situation, it's okay, explain it to her well, she will understand, I think that for this kind of thing, Kirino's acceptance is higher than yours!" ”

"Yes." Ayase looked worriedly at the direction in which Kirino had disappeared and said softly. The woman's intuition told her that the reason why Kirino ran away like this was not just because of the fact that she liked her brother, but she couldn't catch Kirino for the time being, and in the end, she still hid her suspicions in her heart.

"So, as for what happened just now—" Kazuya sighed.

"--I'll talk about that incident just now, after I've explained it to Kirino clearly, in fact, I just want to express my thoughts, and as for my brother's thoughts, I'm not so eager to know." Ayase replied categorically.

"Really? Is that so? Kazuma didn't disagree with Ayase, he just took his sister in his arms and hugged her tighter harder.

And Ayase also hugged Kazuya tightly, as if, she had now hugged the whole world-

Dividing line-

Kirino Takasaka sat in his room blankly, completely devoid of the joy of his first victory. His roommate, Leah Hargley, who had just been defeated by herself, had tried to make herself happy in various ways, even with a strange expression, but failed.

Kirino knew that at this time, even if she cried, she might feel a lot better, but she still just sat there stunned. It was not purely sentimental because of a broken love, but a kind of emotion mixed with more, complex, and uncomfortable.

She felt that the biggest joke she had made in her life was the one just now.

Kirino even thanked Leah a little, if it weren't for her pulling her away and delaying the opportunity to express her feelings, then her current self might be even more embarrassed - she fell in love with her best friend's brother and wanted to confess to him, but the irony was that her best friend, she also liked her brother, and between that pair of siblings, their relationship was a little deteriorating.

What kind of nasty family ethics drama is this? Do you really want to make yourself a character like the best friend of those tragic sisters in the sister control game? Kirino has always liked to play games in this area, of course, knows that in the games of the sister series, the sister's best friend is often the target of the protagonist's strategy - but as a sister, Kirino usually rejects them ruthlessly.

So, in the end, I became the same person as the children I rejected! She laughed at herself helplessly.

It's not that Kirino wasn't ready to be rejected, or rather, she felt that she was rejected as a matter of course, and she had never looked at herself in a strange light, the only time she went to a hotel with herself, she was urged by the other party to rush home, and there was no chance at all. Kirino knows,And also look at themselves.,It's just a friend who can play together.,If you count the age problem.,At most, it's just the same care as my sister.。

All this, Takasaka Kirino knows, and it is precisely because he knows that Kirino tries to confess to Kazuya.

When she fantasized about all this, sometimes she would think a little proudly: what would his expression be if I liked him and knew that I had always treated him like a sister? You must be surprised, right? This is the transformation of the identity of a sister to a couple!

So, it doesn't matter if the confession doesn't work out, at least I can scare him a little, right? At least, when I confess failure, I can still leave a deep impression in his heart, then I will be satisfied. This is the first time that Kirino Takasaka, who has never accepted failure, is ready for failure.

- But the cruelty of reality is that it doesn't even give her a chance to fail and surprise her.

The moment he heard Ayase's words, Kirino Takasaka already knew that he actually had nothing. Even if it's a confession, even if it's the kind of surprise that makes He, the second that impresses him is gone.

Because, what Ayase did had completely covered up what she was going to do.

There was a knock on the door, Leah got up and went to open the door, Kirino saw Kazuya and Ayase appear at the door of her room with some embarrassment, they explained something to Leah, the usually energetic mischievous elementary school student, at this time also nodded like a little adult, and then walked out of the door, leaving the space for the three of them.

The moment he entered the door, he saw Kirino sitting on the bed with his head covered, and Ayase immediately rushed over and covered his best friend's hand with his hand.

"I'm sorry." Ayase said softly.

"Why say you're sorry?" Kirino was surprised to find that she could squeeze out a smile that wasn't too reluctant now, "Obviously, I should have said I'm sorry, I heard what Ayase said, but in fact, Ayase didn't want those words to be heard by others, right?" ”

"But, Kirino is sad! I don't know why, but Kirino is sad, and I think I should say sorry to Kirino! When Kirino asked the question, Ayase also had doubts at that moment, but her doubts were quickly broken by Kirino's sad expression.

As Ayase said, no matter how many doubts she had, as long as Kirino was sad, then she should apologize - even if she didn't know why she apologized.

"I'm sorry to upset Ayase!" Kirino felt the warm palm of his good friend and said quietly.

"No, I'm the one who makes Kirino sad!"

"I shouldn't be sad, really, I shouldn't be sad, I'm just a little surprised, I'm obviously, I should just be a little surprised," Kirino hugged Ayase, constantly pleading his thoughts, but, out of her control, tears flowed slowly.

She tried hard to wipe away her tears, but she found that her tears were flowing more and more, and finally, even she gave up her resistance and cried like that.

Ayase may not know what Kirino is thinking, but looking at Kirino's appearance, a sad feeling also rises from her heart, and some inexplicably, she also cries.

Kazuya looked at the two girls who were hugging each other, crying a little pear blossom with fish, he was probably the least aware of the situation among the people present, in the face of this situation, he felt as if he should avoid it, but he didn't know what would happen to these two girls if he left. So, he could only stay where he was in embarrassment, turning his back and not looking at anything.

In the room, the cry slowly became howling, and I don't know how long it took, but it slowly became softer again.

Dividing line-

"Does Kirino like the boy who came before?" Leah asked with a shuffled head.

"It's okay, don't ask questions." However, her question was exchanged for a chestnut by her roommate.

"But that's the only way to explain that you won me that game, okay?"

"I was in good shape that time, you know?"

"But you still didn't beat me when you were in good shape?"

"That means it's all in a bad state after that."

"Then when will Kirino be in good shape next time?"

"How do I know this, if I can adjust my state so easily, you don't have to be so arrogant!"

"Then why did Kirino lie to them that you weren't going back? It's just a few days off. ”

"Don't worry about so many things, kids!"

"So Kirino still likes that boy, right?"

"I think I'm in better shape now, how about we go and play?"

"Is it true? Then let's try it now. ”

"Wait a little longer, I have a few emails to send here, and I have to tell my family that I'm going back."

"Okay, don't be afraid of battle then, Kirino."

After calming down Leah, who was a little bored, Kirino held her head again, and recently, she found that she liked this action, and she liked this thinking action.

That day, she and Ayase didn't say anything, whether Ayase knew what she was thinking, Kirino still didn't know, the two hugged each other and cried, and then they lay down on the bed together, interlocking their fingers, and whispering something that their best friends hadn't spoken to each other for a long time - of course, at that time, they drove Kazuya away.

Ayase may have known that, and as she slowly explained her attachment to Kazuya to herself, she said, "If Kirino had been my brother's girlfriend at the time, I probably wouldn't have had these thoughts!" ”

Kirino's heart pounded when she heard Ayase say this, and at that time, she almost felt that she was about to say what she thought.

- But she gave up in the end.

"Please, Ayase, you think your brother is good, that doesn't mean I think so!" That's what she said at the time.

It's not because of tsundere, but because, she thinks, she really should give up.

When she was very young, she longed for her eldest brother, and she could work hard for her eldest brother, but when her brother stopped being reckless and was willing to be an ordinary person, her longing faded. Then, she met Kazuya, and of course Kazuya didn't work hard, but most of the time, he could do everything with a weight - except for games, so for this, Kazuya, who helped himself many times, and was able to complete tasks that surprised him many times, Kirino was looking forward to.

However, this longing, this love, here, should finally be cut off.

She pulled out the necklace she had always cherished and had never worn before, and put it around her neck.

It's a good fit for her, even if her skin is a little darker from long-term outdoor training.

"Buying this necklace now and appeasing other people's anger is already my limit."

"It's because I know it's a couple's practice to wear it directly, so I didn't do it."

"This necklace is your favorite style, right? It's an early birthday present from me. ”

The scenes when she bought this necklace came to her eyes.

"Stupid, what an early birthday present, I haven't even arrived for my birthday, I'm going to throw it away!" Kirino took the necklace off her neck and threw it out.

But at the moment of throwing it out, the tears in her eyes blurred her vision.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid!" She shouted a little ventingly, and then, very carefully, took the necklace back, put it in the necklace box, and stuffed it into the depths of the cabinet.

"Even if you give it up like this, but if you have a chance, it's just as a save, so it must be good, right?" The 15-year-old girl, holding the necklace box, whispered softly.

Maybe she didn't realize that she liked him so much before, but when she really decided to fall out of love, she realized that she was actually much more vulnerable than she thought, and she liked that guy a lot more than she thought.

However, she eventually gave up. Fragilely, but proudly, she announced that she had given up-

Dividing line-

In the airport, looking at Ayase staring out the window intently, Kazuya asked a little worriedly, "Are you okay?" Ayase, it's too late to change our minds, we can convince Kirino to bring her back. ”

"No need, brother," Ayase turned her head and stroked her bangs on her forehead, "Kirino has already decided to stay, didn't she just win her roommate, and she is always motivated at this time, isn't she?" ”

"However, I remember that Kirino also expressed her stance before, whether she wins or loses, she plans to return to China, right?"

"Maybe it was a change of mentality after really winning the little girl, or maybe that's it?" Ayase blinked and replied casually.

Kazuya once again found that he didn't understand his sister's thoughts. He also pretended to look out the window, and he whispered softly, "I'm going back." ”

"yes, I'm back home." Ayase responded with her hands outstretched.

"Does my brother think Kirino likes my brother too?" Somewhat casually, Ayase asked.

"Huh?" Kazuya glanced at Ayase with a wry look on his face and asked, "Didn't I tell you, that guy is a brother control, how can he like me, she will only be single-minded with her eldest brother!" ”

"Yes, that's right!"

"Did Kirino tell you anything?"

"No, she didn't say anything." Ayase turned her head away, with a complicated look on her face, and whispered.

Two hours later, the plane took off, breaking through the separation of day and night.

The girl, whose hair was dyed brown, reluctantly accepted her roommate's bravado, blinked her eyes, and took a deep breath.

The girl with long straight black hair gently looked at the boy who was already asleep next to her, clenched her fists, and then leaned on him.

The other side of the globe.

The mature girl with long black hair took a sip of the coffee on the side of her mouth, typed a few words on the computer, and hurriedly deleted it.

The girl who had returned to a black bob fell asleep on the table, and in front of her, there was a diary-like thing that seemed to be brand new.

The blonde girl with two ponytails is asleep with a pillow in her arms, and next to the pillow is a picture she drew a long, long time ago - a story about the mutual misunderstanding of a boy and a girl who are childhood sweethearts.

Tomorrow is a new day!

Whether awake or asleep, they all wished and prayed so heartily.
