Chapter Thirty-Six: Bear Children Have Spring
Like Sakura Endo and Yuno Suzuki, there are many members who moved in the day after yesterday's meeting.
For example, Endo Sakura's roommate: Hayakawa Seirai, and the eldest of the four phases who didn't come to dinner yesterday: Tamura Shinsuke.
They arrived a little later than the Aichi trio and Sayaka Kakehashi.
In the evening, in the corridor, in addition to human voices, you can also hear the sound of doors opening and closing, one at a time, crisp and short.
Looking at it this way, the six people of 401, 402 and 403 have all arrived tonight.
401 is the room of Mayu Tamura and Akae Tsutsui, on the side of the stairs and next to the elevator.
It was destined to be an unusual night for these members who had moved from their hometowns to the dormitory.
Because from tonight, they will be living in the dormitory.
As the night darkens, the apartment building, which had few residents, becomes even more deserted, and the slight wind is amplified in the corridor, but it is soon drowned out by the sound of people.
The soundproofing of the various rooms in the dormitory seems to be so good that Yuno Suzuki and Sayaka Kakehashi in 403 are completely unaware of the movement outside.
403。
Sayaka Kakehashi was looking at the gummy in the palm of her hand in front of her at this time, in a sudden entanglement.
She is cheerful by nature, but there is no lack of delicacy, in just ten years of life, she has made a lot of friends with Sayaka on the bridge, and she has more or less been in contact with various types of girls of the same age.
But with a serve like Yuno Suzuki, Sayaka Kakehashi is the first time I've seen him.
How do you want her to take this?
How do you want her to get angry?
Yuno Suzuki is like a child, or rather, she is indeed a child now, she put her innocence and apprehension together, and came out of the tray.
Sayaka Kakehashi in front of her is the only recipient.
Yuno Suzuki saw that Sayaka Kakehashi didn't speak for a long time, and she didn't go to take the gummies in her hand, and the silver light in the corners of her eyes became more obvious.
"You... Are you still mad at me? Her voice was slightly choked and she looked a little sad.
"It's not—"
Sayaka Kakehashi hurriedly stood up, and even so, she still had to tilt her head slightly before she could make eye contact with Yuno Suzuki.
After she opened her mouth, she was about to reach out to grab the gummies on Yuno Suzuki's palm, but she saw that the other party opened her mouth again after hesitating for half a second.
"Then, I'll give you two more." Yuno Suzuki lowered his head and looked serious.
I saw her shake her wrist, and the jar made a rattling sound, and then she raised her head again, and her eyes were bright and full of light.
"Here, that's all there is left."
Don't be angry.
Sayaka Kakehashi stared at the extra gummies in Yuno Suzuki's palm, a little stunned, she understood the subtext of the other party's words.
Yuno Suzuki's palms weren't overly soft, a little harder than the colorful candies, but warm enough that Sayaka Kakehashi's fingertips slid lightly across them, and the candies had a new owner.
Holding the fudge, Sayaka Kakebashi couldn't say the words "I forgive you".
It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but it made herself quite uncomfortable to make the scene like this, and Sayaka Kakehashi thought to herself, if she could do it all over again, she would never have a little resentment against Yuno Suzuki.
Not at all.
"I'm actually... It's not lifeless! Sayaka Kakehashi clenched her palms and smiled sincerely, so that people could not see a little haze.
It is a smile of 100% purity.
"Really?"
"Hmm!"
Yuno Suzuki has always been a person who writes emotions on his face, so now Sayaka Kakehashi can see that the other party has obviously made a "relieved" expression.
Is it so easy to pass?
Sayaka Kakehashi was a little speechless for a while, she thought that it would take a lot of effort to convince Suzuki Yuno, but she didn't expect the other party to believe her so easily.
"The ......," Yuno Suzuki spoke again.
"What?" Sayaka Kakehashi blinked and made a gesture of patient listening.
Yuno Suzuki lowered his eyes and looked at Sayaka Kakehashi's hand, then raised his eyes and looked into the other's eyes.
"If you don't want to eat it, you can give it back to me." She pursed her lips, and immediately noticed that it didn't seem to be good, so she hurriedly continued: "Don't have it all, just give me that strawberry flavor!" ”
"......" Sayaka Kakehashi fell silent.
She looked at Yuno Suzuki, who was biting his fingertips and looking at her from top to bottom, his eyes full of honey innocence that was so sweet that it made her scalp tingle, sticking to her skin.
Sayaka Kakehashi once again knew that Yuno Suzuki was such a girl who was good at winning favor, and she couldn't stand being coquettish like a kitten.
What's more, she just wants the candy in my hand, so just give it back to her.
"Whoa."
"Thank you."
Thank me for what, it was originally yours, Sayaka Kakehashi thought to herself.
Then, she saw Yuno Suzuki eat the candy in one gulp, and she felt that Yuno Suzuki hadn't even chewed much, and that happy look was the first to faint from her face.
Sayaka Kakehashi tilted her head, her mood inexplicably improved, she learned from Yuno Suzuki, and also put a mouthful of sugar in her mouth.
The expected sweetness spreads in the mouth, and now Sayaka Kakehashi can also be sure that Yuno Suzuki is a sweet tooth.
"Delicious, right?"
"Hmm."
"Hey, hey."
Yuno Suzuki laughed, seemingly satisfied with Sayaka Kakehashi's answer, and after she finished laughing, she realized that her sadness about being separated from her mother had been reduced a lot.
"What's wrong?" Sayaka Kakehashi noticed the change in Suzuki's expression.
Yuno Suzuki pursed her lips as she slowly stuffed the candy jar into her backpack as she searched for a word to express her emotions in her barren cultural desert.
After a long while, she repeated what she had just said, this time adding the word "hanging bridge", but that was all.
"Thank you, Kakehashi."
"Huh?" Obviously, Suzuki's answer was beyond Sayaka Kakehashi's expectations, "That's what I just said. ”
Yuno Suzuki didn't speak, just looked at Sayaka Kakehashi with wide eyes.
"And it doesn't have to be like that at all!" Now Sayaka Kakebashi feels more and more that she is the one who has done the wrong thing and caused trouble.
"No, it's because of the hanging bridge that I'm in a better mood now." Yuno Suzuki continued to look at Sayaka Kakehashi, and said seriously word by word.
"So thanks."
Because of me?
Sayaka Kakehashi knew that she shouldn't be thinking about it, but she couldn't help but blush.
"How can you be so exaggerated...... her voice became much quieter.
"I think so, right."
"So, do you think we're friends now?"
Hearing Sayaka Kakehashi's words, Yuno Suzuki's eyes lit up.
When it comes to the word "friend", the first thing that comes to her mind is Sakura Endo.
"Friends?"
"Hmm."
Sayaka Kakehashi looked at Yuno Suzuki with a little expectation.
"I don't know." Yuno Suzuki frowned, looking a little distressed.
"......" Sayaka Kakehashi was a little disappointed, but she quickly smiled again.
She heard Yuno Suzuki continue to speak.
"But, I think, we're supposed to be friends...... Right? ”
"I think so too!" Sayaka Kakehashi's voice suddenly became louder.
Yuno Suzuki was taken aback.
"Well, as a friend, I have something I want to ask you!"
"Huh?"
"Can you pronounce my name?"
Sayaka Kakehashi simply said her request, her eyes widened.
She was waiting for Yuno Suzuki's reply.
Yuno Suzuki didn't understand why Sayaka Kakehashi made such a strange request, but that didn't stop her from doing what she asked.
“Sa… Sayaka? She whispered.
"Yuno!" Sayaka Kakehashi shouted loudly.
