It took a long time to make up his mind, but Tetsufumi Hirakawa finally rejected Shiori Shinohara's overly obvious insinuation.

I don't know what to do, but it won't work anyway, as soon as Kuda leaves, he wants to get close to Shiori Shinohara, which is too bad.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's refusal rightfully incurred the displeasure of Miss Shinohara-sama.

Standing upright, gestures are the demeanor of a famous lady, but her eyes are full of resentment, staring at him.

The girl's eyes are really empty.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa could only pretend not to know and picked up a passing cat...... It's the Chimera.

The Chimera was not satisfied, and meowed and waved her paws.

However, Miss Shinohara-sama can't still subdue a mere cat, right?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa hugged the cat to himself.

"That, Shiori...... Is there anything else you can do? ”

Shiori Shinohara didn't answer immediately, she stared for a long time, but all the while, Tetsufumi Hirakawa pretended to focus on the cat.

“……”

Shiori Shinohara, walked over to the side of the couch and sat down.

fell into a speechless occasion for a short time, Shiori Shinohara didn't speak, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't open his mouth, teasing the cat.

It wasn't until a moment later that Chimi in Tetsufumi Hirakawa's arms was already a little impatient, wagging his tail, that he heard Shiori Shinohara's faint sigh from the other side.

"Mr. Hirakawa, you're always like this, hot and cold to Shiori......"

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's hand holding the cat froze, and the Chimera, who was already annoyed in his arms, took advantage of this time to struggle from his arms, jumped down, first landed on the ground with his front feet, and then ran away and went upstairs.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa ignored Chimera and looked towards Shiori Shinohara.

She was also looking at him, sitting on the couch, looking at him with a look full of grief.

"It's always been like this, and when you go further, you suddenly back down."

"Those words suddenly came out of nowhere in the bookstore."

"When I was at school, I suddenly started to avoid Shiori."

"After the dream is over, it disappears all at once."

"I said I was going to be together, and the next moment I said that I couldn't let go of Mr. Kuda."

"It still is."

"The way you treat Shiori has never changed......" Shiori's tone was flat and gentle, wrapped in a rich grievance, "Hirakawa-sensei, if you are like this, Shiori will also be sad." ”

She took another breath and pulled herself together as if she was struggling, a bitter smile on her lips.

"Or is it because all of this is Shiori's willingness, so Shiori has to accept this treatment?"

“……”

“……”

"I ......"

Silent, Tetsufumi Hirakawa's voice was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't make an excuse.

Shiori Shinohara's eyes, always looking into his eyes, make him feel guilty and make him feel distressed.

Come to think of it, Shiori Shinohara was absolutely right.

Always looking forward to his response, but he always lived up to the eldest lady's response, and always broke off his delusions when it seemed that he could go further.

No matter how hot you like it, you will get hurt in such things again and again, right?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at Shiori Shinohara for a long time.

The thousands of thoughts in my mind, at a certain moment, finally condensed into actual actions.

"Shiori...... I'm sorry. ”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa said, walking over to Shiori Shinohara, who walked over to her, sat down, and put his hand around the girl's shoulder.

Perhaps because of his state of mind, at this time, the girl's body in the crook of his arm gave him a slender feeling, like a flower swaying with a subtle wind, which could be blown gently. He didn't use much force, and Shiori Shinohara fell into his arms.

It's just, why does the wind seem to be blowing stronger and stronger? The slender flowers were going to blow him down.

- By the time Tetsufumi Hirakawa reacted, he was already lying on the sofa, looking at Shiori Shinohara on top of him, blinking at a loss.

It turned out that it wasn't the wind blowing strongly, it was Shiori Shinohara who took the initiative to push him down......

"Shiori?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the girl's face uneasily.

The sorrow in his eyes had long since dissipated, full of dangerous heat, like a dancing flame.

He tried to get up again, but the girl sitting on his waist was far more difficult to break free than he had imagined.

After moving his body twice, Tetsufumi Hirakawa silently glanced down, the pleated skirt, the skirt was already messed up, and it fell on his body. The girl's seductive legs were exposed, and her gaze extended a little downward, and it was the strangulation marks that were slightly sunk in the white stockings.

The whiteness between the stockings and the hem of the skirt is what is called the absolute realm.

Of course, it cannot be ignored that the girl is sitting on his waist.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa couldn't move.

Shiori Shinohara's hands were propped up on his chest, her eyes staring straight at him, her delicate face visibly crimson.

But there was no flinching.

"Hirakawa-sensei." The girl restrained her voice, "You've always treated Shiori like this, can't you?" ”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa felt a little uncomfortable, pressing on his girl's soft body, eroding his will.

"Ah...... That one...... Shiori, or ...... Down first? ”

Shiori wasn't kidding...... Shiori will really be sad. ”

"This ...... That one...... In short...... "It's getting worse and worse."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa had to shamefully admit a fact: Miss Shinohara's body is really seductive.

She was on top of him, pressing him, and the girl's tight legs wanted to be entangled.

Delicate face, red lips and white teeth.

And the bent upper body, the neckline is slightly open, and in the faint darkness that the light does not shine, the fair and good-looking neck, collarbone, and small ups and downs that are enough to attract the eye in.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa involuntarily glanced inside the neckline, looked at it for a few seconds, and then moved away unnaturally.

He reached out and grabbed Shiori Shinohara's shoulder.

"Shiori, Shiori, calm down, okay?"

The innocent eldest lady blinked and moved her legs slightly.

"It's Hirakawa-sensei who should be calm, right?"

“……”

"Of course, Mr. Hirakawa doesn't need to be calm."

“…… Not so good. Tetsufumi Hirakawa is still holding on for the time being.

"Why isn't it good?"

"Because Kuda ......"

Before he could finish his words, he was refuted.

"What is the relationship between Kuda-sensei and Shiori? Mr. Hirakawa used this reason to reject Shiori, did he think Shiori was not sad enough? ”

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa had nothing to say again.

"I like Mr. Hirakawa, I want to be closer to you, a little closer, Shiori doesn't think there's anything wrong. But it's the Hirakawa-sensei who used this reason to reject Shiori is wrong, right? ”

Shiori Shinohara said, leaning down.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa felt that if he continued like this, he might really not have the strength – or the will – to resist.

In fact, it is already a little irresistible now.

Amazing girl, not to mention, I liked it originally, I should say I liked it very much.

How can this be easily refused?

The strength of the resistance in his hand is getting weaker and weaker, Hirakawa Tetsufumi looked at the face of the girl who was approaching, ruddy lips, he pursed his mouth, and his chin was slightly raised...... He almost kissed him.

- But it almost means no.

The hot air exchanged between Tetsufumi Hirakawa and Shiori Shinohara's breaths, the distance they were about to touch, and—

"Click." The sound of the lock at the door being unscrewed.

This was followed by the sound of the door opening, changing shoes, and walking into the living room in slippers.

Kuda Moshu stood not far from the sofa, hugging his chest, silently looking at the two people who were about to stick together on the sofa.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's body was completely stiffened, like a corpse that had been thrown outdoors to dry in the ice and snow for dozens of days at dozens of degrees below zero, motionless.

Shiori Shinohara's lips opened slightly, and she looked blankly at Maki Kuda, who walked in and interrupted the two of them again.

She still couldn't kiss it.

With a gloomy face, in any case, her current posture is indeed not very elegant and uncourteous.

Shiori Shinohara sat down, got up from Tetsufumi Hirakawa, patted the folds on her body, straightened the hem of her skirt, pulled the hem of her blouse, adjusted her neckline, and brushed her hair.

A series of actions are completed, and the mood is calmed down a little.

Shiori Shinohara straightened up and looked at Kuda Moshu.

The two looked at each other for a long time.

"Mr. Kuda." She greeted politely—though in a cold tone.

"Hmm." Kuda Moshu also responded coldly.

"How did you get in?"

"I have the key." Kuda Moshu spread out his hands.

A bunch of keys, and a key print that is pressed out of the palm of your hand because you hold it too hard.

Shiori Shinohara bit her lip and asked again.

"Then Mr. Kuda, are you coming back?"

Kuda glanced at the coffee table, which had a brown handbag on it.

"Come back and get my bag."

Shiori Shinohara, too, saw it, and when she raised her gaze, she smiled and said, "Mr. Hida, you really don't have a good memory." ”

"I got used to it, I didn't pay attention."

"It's not that I didn't pay attention, but I did it on purpose, right?"

"So what?"

Kuda Moshu admitted very calmly, but Shiori Shinohara had nothing to say.

She exhaled.

Kuda Moki didn't care about Shiori Shinohara either, she looked at Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was still trying to lower her sense of presence on the sofa.

She stepped forward and stared condescendingly.

“……”

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa had to come to life and squeezed out a not very good smile: "Ah...... Jasmine, back? ”

Kuda Moshu ignored this sentence, stretched out his fingers, and pinched Tetsufumi Hirakawa's face.

The cold fingertips lifted Tetsufumi Hirakawa's spirits.

"Did you kiss this time?" Kuda asked.

"No, no." Tetsufumi Hirakawa hurriedly said.

Kuda Moshu glanced at Shiori Shinohara.

Although, Shiori Shinohara wanted to say a kiss angrily, not only kissed, but also kissed for a long time, but unfortunately, now her Hirakawa teacher is pinched by Hinata Moshu.

She is angry now, and it is Mr. Hirakawa who is injured.

Shiori Shinohara turned her face unwillingly and didn't say anything.

Only then did Kuda Maki let go of Tetsufumi Hirakawa's face.

Leaving with cool fingers, Tetsufumi Hirakawa felt the vitality of his heart again...... It jumps very fast and can be said to be full of vitality.

"Then I'm leaving." Kuda Moshu turned around and picked up the bag on the coffee table.

At this time, Tetsufumi Hirakawa immediately got up again.

"I'll send you."

"Hmm."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa sent Kuda Moshu to the entrance for the second time.

In the process of walking towards the entrance, Tetsufumi Hirakawa felt that his legs were a little weak, and a little cold sweat broke out in his palms, and his hands and feet were cold when he was blown by the cold wind that broke in from the still open door.

Kuda Moshu was at the entrance, changed her shoes, and took one last look at Tetsufumi Hirakawa.

"Do you want to continue?"

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa shook his head: "No, no. ”

Staring at him deeply, for a long time, Hinata Moshu nodded slightly, and then, turned around and walked out of Hirakawa's house.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa stood in place, watching Kuda Moki's figure disappear around the corner of the door again.

Until the translucent light in the sky illuminated the white expanse in front of him, and the cold wind blew his body a little cold, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa came back to his senses.

He turned around, and Shiori Shinohara was already standing behind him.

“……”

“……”

"That...... Shiori ...... "Tetsufumi Hirakawa's words hesitated.

“……”

……

Anyway, the sudden return and interruption of Kuda Moshu, after this kind of thing, the previous atmosphere can't come back.

Not long after, Tetsufumi Hirakawa was at the entrance again, gently hugging Shiori Shinohara, and the girl also left silently.

He closed the door, and the light and wind outside were cut off.

The sound also dispersed.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's home is quiet again.

Only the cats, the cats that had disappeared before, reappeared in the living room after the two of them left, perhaps these little animals were keenly aware that the war was over and peace had re-enveloped the land.

Chimera, in particular, also ran to Tetsufumi Hirakawa.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa squatted at the entrance with a stomachache, looking at the gray-black cat's head that suddenly popped out, the Chimera.

"Meow." It looked at him, and seemed to be a little happy in its meow.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa always felt that it was gloating.

He left one hand off his abdomen and rubbed its round head viciously.

"Meow what meow."

"Meow—"

Chimera dodged her head, her meow turning to displeasure.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's hand followed, continuing to rub its head.

"Meow won't give you any more food."

"Meow!"

The Chimera ran away.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at its back, and for a moment, sighed.

That's the price of greed.

Holding his knees, Tetsufumi Hirakawa got up from the ground, silently walked to the sofa, and sat down.

On one side, Michael, who was squinting, heard the movement, opened his eyes, and glanced at him.

It shifted and slouched on his lap.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa smoothed Michael's hair with his hand, and lay back, leaning against the back of the sofa, silent for a long time.

So, he's in a situation where he's doing, what the hell is going to do?

Hisuda was not satisfied, dissatisfied with his fall.

Shinohara, also dissatisfied, dissatisfied with his deliberate estrangement.

He really can't do it.

“……”

Thinking about it, there was no movement in his hand.

Michael on his lap meowed lazily.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's hand moved again, continuing to caress its body slowly.
