As time passed, the street lights on both sides of the road slowly lit up, and the sky was so dark that I couldn't even see my feet clearly. One by one, fireworks rise from below, and then with a loud sound, the night is colored. The children who ran in front of them stopped playing with their partners and looked up at this splendid scene, their eyes sparkling - "Amazing! He kept waving his hands, raising his head high, and shouting excitedly.

Lola sat on the bench in the light and couldn't help but reach out and poke me in the cheek. "If you sleep again, you're going to miss out on such a beautiful view, right?" Then, slowly apply your fingertips and gently swipe them with a teasing expression. Like, a few pinched too. "Strange ......"

At this time, Shion walked over, holding in her hand about half of the orange juice she had drunk just now, and now there was 1/4 of the orange juice left. "What do you mean?" Lola looked up with a slightly confused expression and tilted her head slightly to look at her.

"Why does this guy sleep so soundly?" The moment she said this question, her eyes fell on Chihiro again. It's a little sharper. "And besides, it's so defenseless......" she sighed as she said this, and walked over and sat down next to Lola. Speaking of which, Lola, aren't you going to do something about this sleeping face? As he spoke, the corners of Ziyuan's mouth curled up slightly, and she looked at Lola who was stunned and didn't react with a thief smile.

"What are you going to do?" After a while, she wrote this sentence down in her notebook, and slowly pushed it in front of Shion with a tense expression. Then he handed the pen over as well. "For example, take a picture as a souvenir?"

When she was done, Shion pushed the notebook in front of Lola and handed her the pen again.

"Just, don't you do this kind of thing, okay?!"

Suddenly, Lola, who was panicked and at a loss, glared at her and turned her face to the other side. - "Oops, my face is so hot!" She couldn't help but cover her face with her hands, desperately adjusting her breathing to calm herself down. Don't you like her? What does it matter? ”

Shion couldn't help but shorten the distance between herself and her, reached out and poked her shoulder with her fingers, and said with a wicked smile on her face. "Even if you want to do that kind of thing, you have to get my consent, right?!" Lola turned around, knocked her hand off in some anger, and hit back with neat words written in her notebook.

"That is, as long as he agrees, you will do it?"

As soon as Shion finished speaking, Lola noticed that there was an obvious flaw in her words just now, and instantly leaked a cute and panicked expression, and she didn't know how to explain it, so she could only quickly lower her head. At this time, even the tips of the ears that were blocked by the hair seemed to be slightly red.

The faint sound that finally came out of my throat was also cute. And at this time, Shion was already laughing so much that even her shoulders shook with that cheerful laughter. Angry, Lola kicked her under the chair.

"It hurts!"

Shion bent down, covered a little below her ankle with her left hand, which was not holding a drink, and glared at him as if complaining. "Self-inflicted!" Lola twisted her head to the other side, pretending not to hear.

"Hey—"

After a while, Aster leaned back in her chair and held up the unfinished orange juice in front of her eyes, and the bottle couldn't help but be dyed with various colors against the colorful light of the fireworks. Then, she unscrewed the lid again and poured the last bit down her throat.

"Do you want it?"

Then, he took out another bottle from the shopping bag next to him and tapped Lola on the shoulder. "No—" Lola shook her head. "I'm not thirsty right now." Shion had no choice but to sigh and plan to put it back. "Give it to me?"

And just as she was about to put it back, Izumi reached out and took it again. "I'm just a little thirsty." Then explain in a gentle voice. "I think that should be said before you reach out." Suddenly, Shion's eyes looked at his hand that was holding the drink, and then at Izumi who suddenly appeared in front of him. Reminded her a little unhappily.

"I'm sorry."

At this time, Izumi, who noticed that Shion's voice was a little unhappy, apologized honestly. "I'll remember next time." But when she looked up again, her voice was as cheerful as usual. "By the way, is there anything else?"

As he spoke, he took the shopping bag that he had thrown next to him without waiting for Shion to speak. Curious, he looked inside...... "cakes, sandwiches, and ......," and then picked out a few sandwiches and held them in his hand.

"You're not reflecting on it at all!"

Zi Yuan looked at her expression of excitement and expectation, and couldn't help but whisper something in a voice that she could only hear, and then couldn't help but leak out laughter...... At this time, Izumi walked next to her and took a small bite of one of the sandwiches.

Now, he was chewing with an intoxicated expression.

"Chow mein?"

"What's wrong? Do you want to eat fried noodles? ”

Shion turned her face a little strangely and asked her in a somewhat confused voice. "It's not—" Izumi waved his hand, put the rest of the sandwich aside, picked up the drink he had just had, opened it and took a sip.

"I mean, this sandwich—" she gestured to the sandwich next to it. "The filling is fried noodles." And then slowly explained. "It tastes pretty good." Then he narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the lingering afterglow that still lingered on his taste buds.

It didn't take long for me to finish eating. Then she picked up another one, except that this time she just took a bite and put it down immediately. And his expression was painful, and he coughed for a while as if he had been choked before stopping.

"I said, is this this—"

“...... Mustard. ”

She cleared her throat a few more times before turning her face and said to Shion with tears in her eyes. At this time, the voice couldn't help but become a little strange.

"Really? Thank you for your hard work. ”

Shion said comfortably as she put her hand on her shoulder. While desperately resisting the urge to laugh almost several times. "Don't bear it, just laugh if you want!" As she spoke, Izumi couldn't help but purse her lips and turned her face back into her sight.

"Anyway, I'm not good at spicy food!"

Finally, he muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

"Alright, alright, give it to me—"

At this time, Ziyuan's smile had a slightly helpless and embarrassed expression. Then, she took the sandwich in her hand. Then, the two of them noticed the sound of even breathing coming from their side. It turned out that Lola had fallen asleep at some point.

With her head tilted, half of her cheeks were completely covered by the strands of hair that fell from her shoulders. Under the light slowly falling overhead, the long silky black hair appeared brighter and softer than usual.

"Really—"

Shion couldn't help but sigh again, and then laughed out.

"If you fall asleep here, you're going to catch a cold—"

Izumi shrugged helplessly. "It's good that it's summer, and I don't think it will turn out like that if it's just for a while." As soon as they finished speaking, the voices of the two were drowned out by the sound of fireworks sounding around them. Of course, there are other voices mixed in. Probably, right?

Then, when I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling. Instantly, it made me a little confused. So I quickly looked around, and after confirming that this was indeed my room, I was finally relieved. However, when I tried to sit up, I found that my hand seemed to be being pulled...... Then, I finally saw Lola lying on the edge of the bed, as if she was napping.

She put her right hand over my left hand and held it gently. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he seemed to be smiling in his reassuring expression.

Our thumbs are now wrapping together.

"Why?"

Even if such a question arises, I don't know the answer. While I was searching for the memories in my mind, the memories of last night were revived in a corner first. So, as I thought about them, I couldn't help but hold my face with my hand......

But even so, the temperature on his face still went up at an incredible speed, and then spread all the way to the tips of his ears. I can't even look at myself in the mirror now.

"At that time, I shouldn't have done anything rude, right?"

Immediately, I couldn't help but think about it, and I couldn't help but cover my face with my free left hand again.

"If I do, I'll apologize until she forgives me......"

With this in mind, I adjusted my breathing to try not to look so stiff on my face. At this time, facing himself in the mirror, a sigh leaked from his throat again. Then he carefully took Lola's hand away—

Originally, I thought that such a small movement would not wake her up, but when I came back to my senses, my eyes were on the spot. I was so frightened that I immediately retracted my hand as if I had done something wrong. As a result, she blinked several times and looked at me a little confused.

"Chihiro? Are you awake? ”

After speaking, he rubbed his eyes with his hands.

"If you're awake, call me!"

After saying that, I couldn't help but yawn. After finally seeing my face clearly, my voice finally became cheerful, but my expression seemed to be a little confused. "By the way, tell me when you wake up......"

I stole my face to the other side, staggered my gaze, and whispered in a voice that I could hear, but she might have overlooked. But she looked at me again with a look that she didn't understand.

"Why?"

Then write it down in a notebook.

"Because it's not good for the heart......!"

At this point, I wrote the reason directly at the back. As a result, Lola's face seemed to be a little red after seeing it, so she got up from her chair before I realized the reason, and quickly ran out of the room. After a while, I heard the sound of "knock knock" in the hallway.

By the time I picked up my coat that had fallen on the floor and changed into slippers and went downstairs, Lola was in the kitchen, taking the kitchen utensils out of the cabinet one by one. Because there is only one door between the kitchen and the living room, the glass is still transparent, so you can see it clearly.

At this time, Izumi, who was sitting on the sofa, leaned on the back of the chair, reached out and patted the place next to him, and asked me to sit down.

"Lunch will be ready for a while, and Shion and Lola are preparing—" Then, as I sat down on the couch, I turned my face back and explained. "Words—" She suddenly stood up, walked over to my seat next to me, looked at my face and spoke again.

"What the hell did you do to make Lola so shy? She walked with the same hands and feet just now......"

"Didn't do anything?"

I looked at her with a somewhat helpless and somewhat empty expression and said. But his eyes couldn't help but start to dodge.

"You must have done something, right?"

At this time, Izumi's expression and voice were all with an attitude of "I already knew", and "Even if you don't say it, I can guess it." ".

"I'm going to help."

So, I quickly found an excuse to flee there.
