In the next few days, Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't go to the band club for the time being, definitely not because he was lazy.

After all, I just made a suggestion to Ogasa-sensei, so if he goes again, there may be some supervision, but it's not good.

But although he didn't go, he also paid attention to the dynamics of the wind club, but he took the initiative to ask Shiori Shinohara if there was any change in Ogasa-sensei.

The answer was in the affirmative, which is gratifying.

Although it is still in:

"Ogasa-sensei, Ogasa-sensei, can you give me a cheer?"

"Uh-huh, come on, please start."

"That's ......"

"Don't waste any more time, please start."

"Huh?!"

"Hmm...... Don't put on that look, come on? ”

"Okay."

It's such a stage, but at least now Ogasa-sensei is consciously in control, which is a good phenomenon.

Leave it to time.

Everything went back to normal teaching life, but only for one day. He's a really hard teacher.

On Wednesday, April 23, the weather was not very good, and the sunny weather that lasted for more than 20 days was finally ended, and looking at the gloomy clouds piling up in the sky, there must be a heavy rain at some point in the next few days.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa returned home early that afternoon, and because he didn't go to the wind club, he left school before four o'clock.

When he opened the door, the white cat heard the voice and ran to the entrance to welcome him.

But he's used to it, and there's never been that shameful thing about being startled by a cat again.

"Good afternoon."

"Meow."

I changed my shoes amid the cat's greetings.

In fact, it is quite good to have a cat at home, if he is the only one, this three-story house with more than 200 square meters will inevitably be a little deserted.

After changing his shoes, Tetsufumi Hirakawa walked up the steps of the entrance and prepared to go back to his bedroom to change his clothes—although he lived alone, in fact he looked like he was changing clothes everywhere, regardless of the fact that his home was not messy enough to litter his clothes.

He thinks that he is lazy, he is lazy, not lazy, especially laziness that affects the quality of life.

At least his home has been kept clean to some extent.

Too much chaos at home will affect the mood, and it will give people a decadent negative mood, which is not good at all.

That's it, Tetsufumi Hirakawa walked up the stairs to the second floor, but as soon as he walked up, he felt that his legs were being dragged by some creature.

The creature in the home that can do this is obviously ......

Stopped, lowered his head, and the cute creature with a round face and pointed ears tugged at his trouser leg with its front paws, and "meowed" in its mouth.

Are you hungry?

Guessing this, Tetsufumi Hirakawa retreated down the stairs.

Let's go feed the cat first.

Walking to the corner of the living room, where the cat family of four was, the white cat led the way in front of him, and looked back at him from time to time.

Even if you're hungry, you're too anxious.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at the cat.

"It's coming, it's coming."

said so helplessly, first went to the cabinet on the side and took out the cat food, and then walked slowly to the cat nest.

However, after glancing at the food bowl, he silently put down the cat food and squatted down.

"What's the matter with you?"

Rubbed the white cat's head.

Half of the cat food in the bowl is left.

The white cat "meowed" and twisted his head and shook off his hand.

Then he jumped into the makeshift cat kennel made of cardboard boxes next to him, and poked his head out to look at him.

Well......

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the cat, and the cat looked at him.

"Meow."

Got into the box again.

Well, now Tetsufumi Hirakawa knows.

He took a step forward and looked into the box.

In a box covered with towels, a big white cat and three kittens.

Mrs. Cat...... The mother cat is licking the eyes of a kitten with her tongue.

The other two kittens, one black and one white, with squinted eyes that could see the gaps, stumbled around in the box, and after hitting the inner wall of the box, they continued to climb in another direction.

It's quite stupid.

Today's kittens have a lot more hair on their bodies than when they were born, just like two fluffy dolls, much cuter.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the kitten for a long time and resisted the urge to catch it.

The cat is too small to move.

The outstretched hand finally landed on Da Bai's head and rubbed it a few times.

"So...... You asked me to come here because the kitten's eyes were open, right? ”

"Meow~."

"Thank you for your hard work."

The white cat stopped meowing and continued to lick the eyes of the kitten who had not yet opened its eyes.

"Then come on."

Rub it a few more times at the end and don't bother it.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa got up, grabbed the bag of cat food and left. After walking a few steps, he turned back again, opened the seal of the cat food, and filled the basin with the remaining half of the cat food.

When the white cat heard the sound of pouring cat food, his pointed ears trembled and he looked up at him.

After a moment, he leaned down again.

……

At six o'clock in the evening, Tetsufumi Hirakawa was making dinner.

Only love and food can't be disappointed, who said this?

It doesn't matter, in short, cooking is one of the few hobbies that Tetsufumi Hirakawa doesn't find troublesome.

Watching food take shape with your own hands is a sense of satisfaction and satisfaction that overcomes this hassle – and of course washing dishes is still annoying.

With this in mind, he stood in the kitchen, just heating the pot, ready to show off his cooking skills.

As a result, the sound of "meowing" appeared in my ears again.

By the time he reacted, the cat's meow was getting closer and closer, and in a few clicks it reached his feet, and the trouser leg was grabbed again.

“……”

I had to bow my head and look into those amber eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"Meow."

“……”

Could it be that the last kitten's eyes were also open?

"Wait, wait for me to cook."

But obviously, how can a mere pet understand human language?

So the stalemate lasted only a moment, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa was defeated.

"Okay, okay, I'll take a look."

Helpless.

I turned off the fire, washed my hands again, and followed the cat that was trotting in front to the cat's kennel.

When he looked inside, sure enough, the third kitten—half black, half white, the one he named Impermanence—had closed its eyes for eleven days, and finally opened a little slit.

"It's a very happy thing, but I have to say that you are a bit willful."

Squatted down, and with his hands that were not dry and had water, he rubbed it on the white cat's body.

That's right, revenge, above board.

The white cat ran away with a "meow" and turned to look at him vigilantly.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the cat and laughed.

Laughing, at the same time, the mobile phone placed on the table in the living room suddenly rang.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa gave the white cat one last look with a smile, got up, and walked to the table.

Whose call is it at this point in time?

Looking down, the caller ID was Amamiya Night.

picked up the phone, connected it, and immediately heard the girl's voice on the other side.

"Mr. Hirakawa ......"

"Well, I am, what's wrong with Amamiya-san?"

"I ......"

The girl's voice was nervous and shy.

Well...... So, what I said last week, I replied to him this week. Now that I've finally figured it out, are you ready to give him an answer?

But I don't talk about it when I'm at school during the day, so I have to talk about it on the phone now...... It's because you're embarrassed to say it to your face, right?

"Amamiya-san, please speak."

On the other side of the earpiece, the jerky words echoed in his throat a thousand times, and finally spoke after receiving his encouragement.

"Mr. Hirakawa, I'm willing."

So said.

“……”

How strange it sounds.
