Coming out of the bathroom, Naoko walked up behind her boyfriend who was standing at the door and put her arms around his waist.

"It's still raining heavily."

"Hmm."

He took the hand at his waist and continued to look at the dark courtyard outside for a moment.

"Hikari sent a leaf back?"

"Hmm. said that they would stay at her house for the night. ”

"Yes."

Naoko hugged him tightly, buried her head behind him, and warmed each other with her body in the cool rainy night.

Not everything needs to be meaningful, like him standing motionless here listening to the rain, or like she's here with him.

The rain continued, but it gradually lost its rhythm.

It reminded her of the rain that was getting lighter and lighter in the evening.

"Spring Sea ......"

"Hmm."

Naoko opened her eyes, looked at the same and different colored slippers on each other's feet, and was silent for a while.

"The rain seems to have gotten lighter."

"Hmm."

He stroked back and forth on her exposed arm, wiping away a little of the coolness from the rain and night, then turned around and closed the door with his backhand.

"Let's go to the couch."

"Good...... Hmmm......"

The pajamas faded, but the body temperature rose rapidly.

After making out, Naoko lay down weakly on the sofa and turned her head to look at her boyfriend who was cleaning and wiping her with a tissue.

He looked over too, reaching out and grabbing a handful at the pair of eye-catching shakes.

"Hmm......"

She curled up and wrapped her arms around him.

"I haven't wiped it clean yet."

"Almost......"

Naruse leaned forward and kissed her on the forehead.

"Do you want to watch a movie today?"

"Okay."

"Put your clothes on first."

She opened her arms, and there was another dazzling shake.

"Help me wear ......"

By the time the movie actually started playing, it was almost half an hour later.

Naoko leaned against him, half-lying on the sofa, and just halfway through the movie, the eyelids of both of her eyes were getting heavier.

"So there is a hint here......"

Looking at the movies he had already watched again, with a little memory of the ending, Naruse was keenly aware of some hints of detail in the previous part.

This is something he hadn't noticed before, and it's one of the pleasures of watching it a second time.

It's just that the person in his arms didn't respond.

Looking down, my girlfriend was already asleep.

He raised his head and continued to watch the movie, but it was difficult for his mind to concentrate as much as he had just now.

After a while, he picked up his phone and looked at it.

The chat with Morimi was still in the afternoon, and she told him when the school would be over.

He witnessed everything.

Whether it's Naoko's words or Morimi's reaction.

He could even feel the embarrassment and embarrassment of the latter at that moment.

He should probably say something.

But it seems that not saying anything, and letting her retreat like this is the only right choice.

Naruse lowered her head and slowly hugged her without waking her girlfriend.

When he came back to the present, he didn't say anything to him except for Morimi, who was worried about going home when it started to rain.

Breathing in her sleep, he put his phone down again.

Buzz –

Morimi touched his phone, squinted his eyes, and took it to his eyes.

Mom: Let's come and sleep at night.

"News from Chunhai." The man lying next to him asked.

"No...... It's my mom. ”

In reply, Morimi put down his phone, "They're going to come here to rest at night." ”

"Then I'll go down and say hello later." Hikaru Takikawa said.

"No, it's not too late to say hello tomorrow morning."

"Okay."

The two continued to lie down.

It was not early, and with the intention of sleeping while chatting, they had moved to the pillow at the head of the bed.

"The starfish slept in it the last time they came."

"Does Kazuha often take girls home to sleep?"

"Light is the second."

"I'm the second, I'm so happy."

“……”

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

“バカ……”

Hikaru Takikawa rolled over and faced the outside.

"When we wake up tomorrow, let's go buy glasses."

Morimi looked at the ceiling, "Hmm. ”

"What kind of glasses are Kazuha going to buy?"

"Didn't he say he was going to pay for it, the more expensive the better, the kind of money he wanted to kneel down and beg me for a refund."

"Hahaha, can you buy such expensive glasses in Tsumae?"

The smile faded, and she sighed softly.

"Can't buy it...... So it's better to buy the same pair of glasses as before. ”

Hikaru Takikawa looked at her and didn't say much.

"Okay."

The two of them were speechless and lay down for a while.

In the silence, the sound of a car suddenly came from below.

It should be the parents who are back......

Morimi turned his head to look at Hikaru Takikawa, and when he saw that she had closed her eyes, he cautiously got up and went downstairs.

"I see the motorcycle of the light over here......"

"Well, she's staying here tonight."

Her parents were not surprised that she hadn't slept at this time, chatted a few words, and asked her if she wanted something to eat.

Eating at night can make you fat......

And the moment the thought of refusing came to her, she felt hungry.

At dinner in the evening, she spent most of her time wrestling with herself in her head, but she didn't eat much.

"What to eat?"

"Udon."

"It's udon ...... again"

"Then let's fry some more tempura."

"Good!"

Morimi walked around the kitchen and remembered his friend who was still lying in the room, "I'll ask if you can eat just by eating." ”

Chieda Morimi opened the refrigerator, "I think I'll be able to eat it." ”

"I'm asleep."

And as soon as she returned to the room, Hikaru Takikawa on the bed looked over.

"The light wakes up......"

She smiled, "No, I didn't fall asleep just now. Kazuha's mom and dad are here? ”

"Hmm. Do you want to eat udon noodles alone? ”

"Huh? Hmmm......"

"Tempura added."

"I want to eat!"

Hikaru Takikawa also got up.

"Ah, I want to change my clothes."

Morimi found her a set of pajamas and pajamas that that were the same as his own.

"Does it fit?"

"A little bit ...... No problem, though. ”

Coming downstairs and saying hello to the Morimi couple, Hikaru Takikawa casually turned around and sat down on the edge of the living room.

Morimi sat down beside her and looked at the dimly lit courtyard.

"Sitting here, I will remember the night when I barbecued meat with everyone and played hide and seek." Hikaru Takikawa said.

Morimi pursed his lower lip, "Hmm." ”

"If only we were all boys." She spoke amazingly.

“……”

Morimi opened his mouth, and instantly understood what she meant.

If we were all of the same gender, at least we wouldn't be in the situation we are in now.

"Don't."

"You can urinate standing up."

“……”

Morimi bumped her shoulder.

"Haha."

Hikaru Takikawa was knocked crooked, and Morimi didn't move away, just leaning on her.

"It would be nice if Haruhi were a girl......"

She thought about it from a different perspective.

"If it's all girls, maybe we won't be able to play together...... It's also troublesome to be girls. ”

"Why?"

"Jealousy or something."

Hikaru Takikawa smiled, "Huh? ”

"You think, if Chunhai is a good-looking girl, with good grades, rich family, and a big star...... Probably more than eighty percent of the girls in the school will be jealous of him...... Uh, her. ”

Hikaru Takikawa laughed again, and then seemed to be caught up in the fantasy she had proposed, and did not speak for a long time, and finally suddenly sighed.

"But there's no such what if."

Morimi nodded silently.

"By the way, has Kazuha seen Harumi wear a wig?"

"What wigs ......"

"It's the wig that Kazuha put on the starfish before."

Morimi was surprised, "He still wore it?" ”

"yes, I wear it a little bit, and it's no different from a girl when I'm not talking."

“…… Do you have a photo. ”

"Haha, I won't let you shoot Chunhai if you want to."

After a while, Chieda Morimi carried two bowls of udon noodles to the living room.

"The noodles are cooked."

"Ah, it smells so good."

"Eat slowly."

The two of them returned to the low table in the living room and sat down, and when the lid was lifted, the aroma became even more intense as the rising water vapor came to their faces.

The white mist quickly cleared, revealing the brightly colored soup underneath, the plump noodles, and the golden-fried vegetable tempura on top.

"Hmm-"

Hikaru Takikawa picked up the tempura and took a bite, immediately letting out a sigh of satisfaction.

"It's delicious."

Morimi nodded, no longer bothered to speak.

"It's only our share, don't they eat it uncle and aunt?"

"No, they're eating in the kitchen."

"Okay."

The two of them ate udon noodles and didn't communicate much for a while.

Morimi was really hungry, and he ate faster after bite.

"I'm done."

"Mmmm......mmmm

Hikaru Takikawa bites down on the noodles and looks up at her.

"It's okay, just eat slowly."

She stood up and walked to the edge of the rim, looking out at the endless darkness.

The night was getting deeper and colder.

The calories provided by food fill the body.

Tomorrow, it's a new day, she thought.

I have a cold. It's so hard to quit cold beer for a day
