When Yayoi Satsuki slowly climbed up to the half-floor with a thermos bucket, he saw Naoto Yoshiwara sitting opposite Nana Hoshino with his body bent, and the atmosphere between the two of them was sad and depressing.

Satsuki Yayoi was a little afraid to break the atmosphere between the two, but it was not good to go down again, so he smiled reluctantly, raised the thermos bucket in his hand and said, "Hoshino-san, I cooked soup, can you drink a little?"

Hoshino Nana refused to go down during this time, and it was always Satsuki Yayoi who brought the food up, coaxing and persuading Hoshino Nana to eat and drink a little. After a few days, although Nana Hoshino was inexplicably swollen, her body did not collapse, and Satsuki Yayoi made great contributions.

Naoto Yoshihara glanced at Yayoi Satsuki when he heard the sound, nodded at her, and said to Nana Hoshino, "You eat first." With that, he got up and left the half-floor.

Nana Hoshino watched him roll over and jump off half a floor, the expression on his little face was extremely soft. Then, she turned to Yayoi Satsuki, who was unscrewing the thermos bucket and pouring soup into the lid, bowed her head deeply and said, "I've been causing you trouble these days, Satsuki-san." ”

Satsuki Yayoi was stunned, a little flattered, and waved her hand again and again: "It's nothing, Hoshino-san." She hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously, "You...... Are you feeling better?"

Nana Hoshino shook her head: "No, Yayoi...... Can I call you Yayoi? You can call me Nana. ”

"Ah, okay, Nana. ”

Nana Hoshino gave Yayoi Satsuki a faint smile and continued the previous topic: "My mother is gone, and my heart hurts...... I used to read books, and I always didn't understand what it meant to have a heart like a knife, but now I understand, my heart really hurts as if it will be torn apart, but I can't hide here and cry anymore, and I can't let my mother be in the ...... no matter how sad I am Worry about me from afar!"

Nana Hoshino spoke, and gently pressed the heart part, as if to relieve the pain in her heart, "My mother is very strong, she always says that there are more ways than difficulties, and that frustration and crying are the enemies of life, and if I keep being sad, she will be unhappy." She's gone, I'm going to be stronger and live better than before!"

Satsuki Yayoi looked at Nana Hoshino, and suddenly felt that the girl in front of her was both familiar and unfamiliar, which did not mean that her face was swollen and her appearance changed, but it seemed that suddenly Nana Hoshino was a few years older, her temperament had changed, and the light in her eyes was brighter.

Does Pain Make People Grow?

Satsuki Yayoi was both sad and relieved, looked at Nana Hoshino's face and said softly: "It's great that you can think like this, Nana, everything will be fine, and you will definitely live better." ”

Nana Hoshino nodded heavily: "Yes, I'm Uesugi Xiang's daughter, I can't be like those weak people who are half-dead, crying and shouting, and then everything is left to fate!

She turned to Satsuki Yayoi again, her eyes were clear and shining, she took her little hand, and said in a dumb voice: "Yayoi, I didn't treat you well before, I didn't expect you to do so much for me at this time...... I don't say thank you, but I'll keep it in my heart!"

Satsuki Yayoi was suddenly grabbed by Nana Hoshino, only to feel that her heart suddenly stopped beating, her mind was blank for a while, and she was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and said a little dizzy: "Nana was very good to me before, I ...... I didn't do anything. ”

She was a little confused, she didn't think she had done anything special.

Nana Hoshino is noncommittal, she has always looked down on Yayoi Satsuki, and helping her with her homework is also greedy for games and figures, but when she suddenly suffered a big change, Yayoi Satsuki chose to accompany her all the time.

This kind of companionship is worthless in normal times, but in this cold and biting moment, a little warmth is extremely precious.

Satsuki Yayoi has encouraged her and comforted her in the past few days, in order to persuade her to drink soup, she can hold the soup bowl and spoon for half an hour without moving, and she knocked over the soup bowl in a daze and just cleaned it up silently, turned around and changed a bowl of soup to continue......

slept beside her at night, woke up several times at night to check her quilt, stroked her forehead, and whispered comforting—even when she fell asleep in a daze, the dream was "Nana dear, get better quickly." ”

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.

These things Hoshino Nana is sober, and her gratitude is unspeakable, but she keeps it in mind, she will definitely return this affection! Looking at Satsuki's confused little face, Hoshino Nana just clenched her little hand hard.

Satsuki Yayoi trembled in her heart, and she was happy for a while, but she quickly realized that now is definitely not the time to show joy, so she hurriedly covered it up and pointed to the soup bowl: "Caicai dear, hurry up and drink the soup, it's not good if it's cold." ”

Nana Hoshino answered, picked up the soup bowl, and drank it all in one gulp, she wanted to supplement her nutrition and be healthy.

Satsuki Yayoi was also very happy to see that Nana Hoshino had finally come out of her autism and cheered up again, so she picked up the thermos bucket and poured her another bowl.

This time Nana Hoshino drank slowly, took a small sip, noticed the white envelope on the floor, remembered Naoto Yoshihara's words just now, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Yayoi, do you have any money there?"

"Yes, do you want to use it, Nana-dea?"

Nana Hoshino picked up the white envelope and opened it and looked at it, this is the consolation money given at the meeting of the families of the victims of Upper East University, it is not much, 100,000 yen - this is not compensation, it is just custom.

She turned around again to get her tin biscuit bucket and said, "Yes, I want to use the money now, can Yayoi lend me the money first?"

Satsuki Yayoi was very happy, without any hesitation, and nodded vigorously: "No problem, I'll go to my parents' house tomorrow to get it, I saved a lot of pocket money......" After a pause, she asked again, "What are you going to do with the money in Nana's own hands?"

Nana Hoshino poured out all the money in the biscuit bucket and folded it one by one, with a firm expression: "My mother is gone, this family will lose its source of income, I want to make money, support myself, and support this family!"

Satsuki Yayoi was stunned, and asked hesitantly, "Make money?"

Nana Hoshino skillfully counted the banknotes, and while thinking in her heart, she affirmed: "Yes, the mortgage will continue to be paid, and I will need money for my tuition, living expenses, and everything." ”

Satsuki Yayoi was confused: "But we haven't reached the legal working age, how can we make money?"

Nana Hoshino counted the money and stuffed it back into the cookie bucket, and said frankly, "I have an idea, I want to try it, but I need a certain amount of money, so I want to borrow some money from you first." She glanced up at Satsuki Yayoi, "There is a risk, I don't know if it will succeed, if it succeeds, then the money will be your investment, if it fails, I will return the money to you in the future." ”

Satsuki Yayoi shook her hand again and again and said, "I don't have to pay it back, I don't have to pay it back, even if my investment is good." Nana Hoshino said in the clouds and fog, she didn't understand too much, as for what investment is, she is only at the level of knowing these two words.

However, she is willing to give the money to Hoshino Nana, in her opinion, Hoshino Nana is in the most difficult period of her life, there are not many places where she can help Hoshino Nana, if it is just some pocket money, she doesn't need Hoshino Nana to return it to her.

Nana Hoshino didn't explain again, and said casually: "I'll talk about it when it's done." She lifted the curtain and looked underneath to find Naoto Yoshiwara sitting in the living room talking to Miki Monomiya.

She glanced at Naoto Yoshiwara, only to see him frowning, a little suspicious that he was speaking ill of him behind his back. She looked at it in a daze, and thought to herself: "This stupid dog, still thinking about adopting herself, what a big face! I am my mother's daughter, and I will only be my mother's daughter in this life!"

Satsuki Yayoi also glanced down at the side, turned to look at Nana Hoshino, and found that she was frowning, but her eyes were unexpectedly gentle, and she was suddenly a little puzzled.

Nana Hoshino retracted her gaze and began to arrange her clothes and prepare to leave half of the real life, while silently thinking in her heart: "Mom, don't worry, I will keep our home, we will be together forever!"
