Chapter 67: When you cry, you need someone to be with you quietly
The neko in "The Autumn Rain of the Nai River" didn't wait for the owner to return, and ended up sleeping in the rain with the dilapidated shrine.
Yayoi Autumn had already told him that his situation was much better than that of Neko.
But who can tell Yayoi Akihaya when she will see her parents who have left her again......
The uncontrollable tears carefully vented the emotions that the girl had been accumulating.
Even though she was left alone, even if she had to wander alone in the cold and unfamiliar city of Tokyo, she still only whimpered quietly, not daring to cry out loud.
I have endured all kinds of emotions in my heart for too long, and I have gradually forgotten how to vent.
I like to be alone and don't want to cause trouble to others.
Even asking for help from others has become [selfish] in the girl's heart.
Narumi sighed, lamenting that he didn't seem to be able to go back to the rental house again.
The crying girl needs someone to be there for her quietly.
You don't need to comfort yourself, you don't have to do anything superfluous, you just need to be by your side quietly.
He turned on his phone, and there was an unread message from Qianjia on Line.
[Article:Did Narumi Sang deliver the autumn morning sauce home safely?] ]
After thinking about it, I simply went back.
[Yu: It's delivered safely, don't worry.] ]
[One article: OK~! ]
Whether or not to let others know about these things, only Yayoi Akihaya can decide for himself.
[22:16]
[Light Rain]
Narumi put down her phone, got up and walked to the window, looking at the gloomy night sky through the window.
The light was dim, and it was impossible to see if there was any rain dripping.
But it was as if the sky had read his thoughts.
Click.
Click.
Drop by drop of rain fell diagonally on the window and slowly flowed down the glass into the chute, leaving traces of water.
Narumi realized that the house didn't seem to have a balcony, so if you wanted to dry your clothes, you had to hang them indoors.
It was said to be a light rain, but the rain outside the window seemed to help Yayoi Aki vent all the sadness and loneliness accumulated in his heart, and gradually intensified, and soon wet the entire window.
Even with him, he was trapped here.
There's really no going back now......
I don't know when the rain will stop, and the train is estimated to be running out of schedules.
Although Kita Ward and Arakawa Ward are adjacent to each other, he is also nearly 10 kilometers away from home...... If you walk, you have to walk for at least an hour or two.
Gradually, the girl became a little tired, and lay sleepily on the table, burying her head in the crook of her arm, still sobbing quietly.
During the day, I was busy with various things in the student council, and I had to give speeches and host activities, and at night I sat in an izakaya for more than two hours, and I never had time to rest.
I'm already very tired, and on the way home, I have to deal with the extreme thugs who come to arrest people.
And...... Living in this kind of place is not guaranteed to have enough rest......
I don't know how long it took.
The rain outside the window stopped.
The girl's breathing gradually stabilized, and she fell asleep on the table.
There are tear stains in the corners of his eyes, and he mutters syllables such as "Dad" and "Mom" from time to time, which looks distressing.
Narumi Yu stood by and hesitated for a long time, and finally climbed the stairs first, picked up the girl's off-white futon without any patterns, and spread it on the floor next to the table.
Then he reached out and picked the girl up from the chair as gently as he could, and placed her gently on the mattress.
The girl curled up, lying on her side in the futon, fell asleep peacefully.
If you are considering the quality of rest, it is better to take off Yayoi's early school uniform and put it in the futon.
But he really couldn't do it. It seems that once he makes a move, he will become a villain who follows the girl in his own mouth.
Yayoi cleaned the house in the early morning, and there were no stains or dust on the wooden floor.
After twelve o'clock in the evening, there were no trams and taxis, and he didn't want to walk the nearly ten kilometers road, so Narumi simply stayed at Yayoi Akiha's house and rested on the table.
Driven by sleepiness, he soon fell asleep.
……
……
When I woke up the next morning, my head was dizzy, and my arm was sore and numb after being pressed overnight.
He shook his head, dispelling the rest of his weariness.
The sizzling sound of hot oil coming into contact with the ingredients when Yayoi is cooking in the morning.
"Narumi Sang woke up?"
"Hmmm......"
Sleeping on the table is really not as comfortable as lying down, and if you don't rest enough, you have to find a time to catch up on sleep when you get to school during the day......
"That...... Thank you ......."
The girl was still thinking about what had happened the night before.
"Do you have my share of breakfast?" Narumi interrupted her and asked with a smile.
“……”
Yayoi Aki also smiled,
"Absolutely."
"Then I want to eat more, this is the breakfast made for me by the most popular literary and artistic girl at Mikagehama High School."
