When he slept at night, Naoki Natsume glanced obliquely at Asai who was leaning against his pillow with his eyes closed, and seemed to feel her slight gasp.

Through the moonlight outside the window, Asai's beautiful eyelashes seem to be hazy between trembling and not trembling.

He couldn't sleep.

Probably because of the day.

The events of the day made him remember the past and speculate about the future.

So he turned around and got his phone, turned the brightness to the lowest, and swiped the social software.

The slight touch was transmitted to Asai through the soft quilt, and it could have been due to the cold air, but it didn't matter.

She opened her eyes and was silent as she looked at the broad spine in front of her and the shoulder that had been leaning on her.

In fact, I don't blame Nanamiya for saying that she was too anxious, after all, the two of them are only college students, and they are indeed far from buying a house and living a life......

Well, in fact, life has already begun, and the two are still very happy.

But it's also true, the more she doesn't want more to be pressed on the shoulders of the man she likes...... Although I am very reluctant to admit it, it seems that Naoki Natsume is destined not to be responsible for only one woman.

At least, before this, she wanted to have a home of her own, a love nest for two people, and then outsiders.

Although the conditions on the uncle and aunt's side are very good, the experience of this holiday has made her clear that Natsume's family has also encountered a big crisis, and the factory has made the two couples unable to spare energy, so they have to help share it.

Marriage is never just a matter of one person or one family, and the same is true of love.

After thinking about it, she closed her eyes again, and she had to go to her aunt to handle the transfer tomorrow morning.

Naoki Natsume was bored with social software, just trying to relieve his somewhat boring mood.

A silent message box popped up.

It was 10:10 p.m.

It's a message from the senior sister:

[Naoki-kun, have you slept already? 】

He was slightly stunned, thinking about why the senior sister didn't sleep so late, but he still subconsciously replied:

[Not yet.] 】

[Why hasn't I slept so late? ] 】

Mio Izumi replied:

[I slept too much this afternoon, I just woke up at seven o'clock, and I can't sleep this time...... I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow! 】

The corners of Naoki's mouth curled up unconsciously, and he was in a better mood, sincerely happy for his senior sister.

[It's good that it won't delay the start of school.] Before, I was worried about my senpai's health. Did the doctor say there were any sequelae? Do you need to recuperate? 】

[The doctor said that there was no problem, and all the signs were normal.] The doctor also said that I was one of the few normal people he had ever seen. 】

Naoki Natsume thought about it, this is true.

With a variety of unhealthy lifestyles, staying up late, eating irregularly, not liking exercise, etc., there are few healthy people with normal indicators in modern times.

[That, is Naoki-kun free tomorrow afternoon? ] 】

While he was thinking, the senior sister sent another message.

This is followed by a very cute emoji that is the shyness of the little squirrel with a red face.

The girls have already hinted at it so obviously, and if you go back to something like "what's the matter", "what do you want to do when you're free", it will inevitably be a little too straight.

Take the initiative!

So Natsume Naoki smiled slightly and replied [Did Senior Sister have a place she wanted to go as soon as she was discharged from the hospital? 】

【Let's go shopping in Hakodate!】 】

The senior sister sent a voice, and Naoki Natsume turned his head to look at the sleeping Asai and put on the headphones.

"Now, Naoki-kun...... On my last trip to Hokkaido before school starts, would you like to accompany me to the playground? ”

The soft tone that seemed to be grinding in the ears made Naoki Natsume couldn't help but listen to it a second time...... No one would refuse to listen to their favorite girl's voice over and over again, right?

The somewhat deliberately suppressed voice seemed to be afraid of disturbing Naoki Natsume, so gentle that the extreme gentleness seemed so ...... Sexy.

What kind of feelings does the senior sister have on the other side of the screen at this time?

Is she blushing?

Did she read the voice several times and was not satisfied, so she picked the best one and sent it over?

Is there love in her eyes when she chats?

Like yourself?

[Okay, I'll take you to the amusement park tomorrow.] 】

"Yes, yes! Then I'll be waiting for you at that station in your town, Naoki-kun taking a nap? If it's too early, won't it bother you...... What time is appropriate? ”

It was still a voice message, and the tone of the series of questions was so excited, Natsume Naoki could already imagine in his mind that the senior sister looked like a happy child.

[You don't have to run so far, you actually live some distance from my village, right?] I'm waiting for you at Shiraishi Station, so let's take the Hakodate Main Line, shall we? The time is yours. 】

"Then 2 o'clock, okay? 2 o'clock is not gone! ”

Naoki Natsume listened to the last sentence twice more with a smile on his face.

[Okay, good night, senior sister. 】

"Why didn't Naoki-kun send me a voice? It must be greasy! ”

This slightly complaining and petty temper made Naoki Natsume unable to explain.

The senior sister is not a stupid person, maybe she has already guessed the reason why she doesn't dare to speak...... Even if you don't guess, it's hard to say how careful the girl is.

But just as Naoki Natsume was thinking about how to explain or coax, the last voice had already been sent from there.

"Hmph, if you don't send me a voice message, then punish Naoki-kun to buy me ice cream tomorrow! I want to eat cold! Hey, good night Naoki-kun~"

Mio Izumi, who was holding her mobile phone, blushed.

I don't know if it's useful to read the teasing of jokes on the Internet, will Naoki-kun understand his own hints?

It would be nice if you could understand it......

Mio Izumi stared at the ceiling of the hospital room, thinking about it and falling into a deep sleep.

The next day, Naoki Natsume woke up early in the morning.

Asai went out to find Nanamiya after breakfast, and before she left, she specially told her that she should not come back at noon, let Natsume Naoki deal with it by herself, and come back in the evening to make a hearty dinner.

He told Asai the truth about the afternoon date, and Asai glared at him with a dark face, and then helped him find clothes for the afternoon.

As for letting himself cook at noon, Natsume Naoki naturally agreed, and went to Uncle Murata's house next door to eat.

Uncle Murata's mental head is not very good, and recently worrying about money has made this middle-aged man's hair begin to turn gray, Natsume Naoki borrowed a reason to go to the grocery store in the village to buy some rice and eggs, and the two of them followed Grandma Murata to eat a hot meal.

However, what made Natsume Naoki feel relieved was that Uncle Murata really went to buy a decent dress, and his hair was taken care of at the barbershop, and he was very energetic, in order to be the mysterious guest in Natsume's mouth.

He also asked Natsume Naoki at lunchtime, but Naoki Natsume only smiled slightly, and still refused to say, mysterious and embarrassing, which made Murata feel itchy.

After taking a nap, he changed into warm casual clothes. Although people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, as long as they are good-looking and have a good figure, they actually look good in whatever they wear...... Naoki Natsume is such a hanger.

After leaving the village to take the tram and then turn to Shiraishi Station, he took a photo and sent it to his senior sister, and sat on a roadside bench and waited.

As a result, not long after the photo was sent, the senior sister came over.

"Naoki-kun!"

The senior sister is wearing a good-looking light beige down jacket, a red scarf and a white bag, and sexy denim pants that cover the hips make the leg curve so perfect, and a pair of boots on her feet add some mature charm.

Naoki Natsume got up to greet him, and naturally took the little hand of the senior sister.

It was slightly cool to start, and he quickly put it in his pocket.

"Put the other hand in your pocket, hurry up." Naoki Natsume said in a half-joking, commanding tone.

Izumi felt that her hands were warm and her heart was warm, she shrunk her neck, and said coquettishly: "How can you talk to your senior sister like this?" And last night Naoki-kun was a thief! ”

"So I'm going to make it up to you today." Naoki Natsume cleverly changed the subject and pointed to the bubble tea shop behind him: "It's not just a trip to the amusement park, but also the ice cream you named...... I searched this store, and it is said that the reputation is very good, so I chose this place to wait for you. ”

The clerk took a small clip to rub the ice cream ball and asked with a smile, "What flavor do you want?" Here's vanilla, here's chocolate, here's strawberry...... However, it does not support multi-spelling, and you can only choose one flavor at a time, so please forgive me for the inconvenience. ”

Naoki Natsume turned his head to look at Mio Izumi and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then Senpai will choose the favorite." ”

Mio Izumi hummed a small tune and was very happy, looking at those appetizing ice creams, she was dazzled, and she didn't know how to choose.

Suddenly, she was a little stunned, as if she was thinking about what Naoki Natsume had just said.

Naoki Natsume saw that she was a little distracted, so he asked again, "What's wrong with senior sister?" ”

"What did Naoki-kun just say?"

"Me? I said let you pick your favorite ......"

Before the words fell, the senior sister was very shy with her eyes dodging, shrunk her chin in her neck, and pulled the scarf with one hand to cover half of her face, as if it was because the clerk was looking embarrassed, and the other hand gently pulled the corner of Naoki Natsume's clothes.

"Naoki-kun ......"

The sound is like that of mosquitoes and flies.

"My favorite is ......"

It was a little louder.

"Naoki-kun!"

She raised her head, showing a hot red face generously, so serious and serious, and her voice was beautiful and undisguised.

Mio Izumi's credo is, when you like it, you have to be upright!
