Forty minutes ago.

Terashimagawa and Haruna Ayase return to school.

When passing by the supermarket, Haruna Ayase bought a dozen old popsicles, carried them in an ice bag, and brought them back to the student office and put them in the refrigerator.

This refrigerator was bought online by all the teachers in the office last week.

Chiho Shirakawa, who looks childish, has a comfortable face, sitting in the office blowing the air conditioner, and has not seen the maroon waves for a few days.

"Ayase, come and listen to the radio."

"Broadcasting?"

"Matsuoka and Ai Nakano co-host the radio program!"

Looking at the endless gushing of Shirakawa Chiho, Haruna Ayase's goose egg face with light makeup showed a confused expression, and then moved a chair to sit next to her friend, listening to the broadcast hosted by the voice actor and entering the "reader session".

Nakano: "Let's see what the next reader writes—"Excuse me: How can I improve my favorability among women?" ”

Matsuoka: "Yaga! Since it's a love issue, I'm still a single aristocrat! ”

Nakano: "Hahaha~, but he's already asked, let's try to help him solve it, right?" ”

Matsuoka: "Okay, then may I ask Nakano-san, as a girl, what kind of behavior do you think boys have to improve their favorability in the minds of girls?" ”

Nakano: "Hmm... If the boy is more gentle, for example, when opening the door, he will give way to the side, against the door, and let the person behind him go in first, which I feel is a plus. What about Matsuoka-kun's opinion? ”

Matsuoka: "Handsome! ”

....

Halfway through it, the first thing I couldn't stand was Chiho Shirakawa, who slapped Haruna Ayase's thighs under her narrow skirt and let out a laugh.

"Hahaha! Ayase, isn't this column interesting? ”

“... It's okay. ”

Haruna Ayase took Chiho Shirakawa's hand away, and although she didn't think it was funny, she still smiled cooperatively.

At this moment, she turned around and saw the back of the boy squatting in the corner.

What is this little man doing?

Recently, the weather in Nagoya has been getting hotter, and Terashimagawa opened the refrigerator placed in the corner, and in addition to the pile of popsicles that Haruna Ayase had just put in, there were also a lot of cold drinks and a lonely 'bitter coffee ice cream'.

He didn't have a cold to popsicles anymore, and he had already eaten with Haruna Ayase on the way over, so now he chose coffee ice cream and sat back in his seat while eating.

Haruna Ayase was listening to the radio with Chihori Shirakawa, and when she saw Terashima River's leisurely enjoyment, she laughed and said, "Kotererajima, is it delicious?" ”

"Not bad."

"That's the only coffee ice cream I've bought, I haven't tasted it yet, and I'm going to try it later."

Haruna Ayase smiled and stroked a strand of sideburns and looked at Terashima River with a smile.

Boy!

Terashimagawa was a little surprised, it turned out that Mrs. Ayase was not only listening to the radio just now, but also secretly observing him, and even knew exactly what ice cream he was taking.

"Mr. Ayase, don't be so stingy, I'll buy a new one for you tomorrow~"

"Well, forgive me."

At this time, Haruna Ayase also finished listening to the radio, she got up from her seat, stretched her waist, and set off her graceful posture.

It's just a simple action, and the gestures reveal gentleness and intellectuality.

After solving the ice cream, Terashima Kawa came to the bathroom to wash his hands, thinking that the teachers of the Student Affairs Department would go to the meeting in a while, and at this time, he simply went downstairs to buy some cold drinks and ice cream, and he couldn't eat and drink in the office every day.

He groaned a little, then opened the Line and asked Haruna Ayase, "Aunt Ayase, do you want anything else besides coffee ice cream?" ”

Haruna Ayase: "You're downstairs?" Just a little joke with you~"

Terashimagawa: "I just wanted to buy some cold drinks, and I just happened to buy the others along with me." ”

Haruna Ayase: "Okay then, I still want to eat taro cups!" ”

After replying to this sentence, she also accompanied a cute Q version of the doll with a picture of her tongue licking her shiny lips [Gluttonous .jpg].

As soon as I got out of the bathroom, I bumped into Chihori Shirakawa and Sakuyuki Pink River from the study abroad class walking hand in arm, chatting about the little secrets between women.

"Sakurayuki, I'm telling you, Miwa is going on a blind date tonight!"

"Really, that cold woman is finally interested in men?"

"She said that the family was in a hurry, and when she said it, she used the tone of {it's okay at night anyway, just go and see}."

"Bless her, maybe the two of them are looking at each other."

Watching the two women with deep sisterhood enter the women's toilet arm in arm, Terashimagawa frowned and froze in place.

◇

Knock Knock Knock –

There was a knock on the door of the teaching office.

"Enter."

A serious, cold voice came from the office.

Terashimagawa pushed the door in, and saw Miwa Tsukishima sitting in the office, and when he met his eyes, his expression changed slightly, and his breathing became short.

"You... What are you doing?! ”

Terashimagawa ignored it, and seeing that there were no other teachers in the office, he decisively closed the door, locked it, and turned around and walked towards Miwa Tsukishima.

Looking at the boy who closed the door and walked towards her, Tsukishima Miwa suppressed her panicked heart, and immediately made the majesty of a teacher, and looked at each other with a pair of Danfeng eyes: "Open the door for me!" ”

Terashimagawa's expression was calm, not intimidated by the woman's increasingly stern tone. Instead, he moved a chair and sat next to Miwa Tsukishima.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to ask you something."

"Hmph..."Miwa Tsukishima pursed her lips, her deep eyes staring directly at him.

"Dao'er, I'm sorry for you off last night. I also had insomnia last night, thinking carefully about everything we had experienced together, I knew that our meeting was just a fate, and these experiences may not be what you want, after all, how could an adult woman with rich life experience and past tempering be willing to put herself under the control of me, a fledgling little boy? “

"So you've come all the way to teach just to say these things to me?"

Under the narrow gray skirt of Tsukishima Meihe, two black silk beautiful legs were elegantly stacked together, and she said to herself: "I don't want to repeat what I said to you last night, go out if nothing else!" ”

Terashimagawa closed his eyes and thought for a long time before continuing: "In my heart, forbidden love has never been an easy and pleasant thing, it must be an extremely difficult process for the whole world to break through all the shackles. In one sentence, "All eternal and great love must despair once, disappear once, die once, and only then can it regain love and know the meaning of each other again." For me, the process itself was not easy on its own. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"Maybe I like you, it's good to have that..."

"Terashima River! I said—"

"Miwa Tsukishima! Trust me, whether it's drowning in negative emotions or escaping reality, it's not a good choice for you. ”

"But your love pains me! Makes me desperate! ”

"So, from now on, I hope I can learn to love you the way you like!"

“....”

Tsukishima Miwa looked at the computer quietly, and answered without a word, and the later she was, the more impatient she became, so she simply kept silent.

Since the two poured out their long-pent-up emotions in the rain last night, Terashimagawa never thought that the two would have a knot in their hearts because of the identity of the teacher and student in reality.

Of course, he knows that the 'Thousand Flowers' on the Internet will always reply to his messages in a timely manner, comfort him, and persuade him, all of which are the kind of considerate care that Tsukishima Miwa usually does not show in reality.

And now Miwa Tsukishima, before she didn't wear an online dating social mask, she looked like a cold and strict teacher.

Hey?

She seems to be wearing something on her wrist?

Terashimagawa stared at the woman's hand tapping on the keyboard, and was surprised to find that Professor Tsukishima was wearing a couple bracelet on his left wrist that was given after the two of them went to a haunted house to adventure that day. Although it was barely covered by the cuffs, it was discovered by the sharp-eyed Terashima River.

Terashimagawa was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't debunk it directly. After all, Professor Tsukishima, who is anxious now, is not feeling good, and not throwing away the bracelet proves that she still has a trace of him in her heart... Hope?

"Island..."

"Huh?"

Terashimagawa is still thinking about the wording, ready to tentatively ask if the blind date is real.

He was about to say something when he saw Miwa Tsukishima's mobile phone on the table ring a Line tone.

He sat very close to the other person, so he could see the sender's note 'Okasan'.

Island Mom?

What could it be?

Miwa Tsukishima unlocked the screen directly, saw that it was a voice, and clicked on it without avoiding suspicion.

"Mihe-chan, you go home first after work tonight, and my mother will help you choose a beautiful set of clothes for you to dress up, no matter what the blind date results are, at least the impression should not be too bad."

Miwa Tsukishima couldn't help frowning, and Yuguang glanced at Terashima River, who had fallen silent, and turned off the screen of her phone with a perfunctory reply message with a cold face.

After a long time, Terashimagawa asked, "Are you going on a blind date at night?" ”

Miwa Tsukishima's fingers twitched as she tapped on the keyboard, and replied in a calm tone, "What does it have to do with you?" ”

Terashimagawa picked a random book from the table and flipped through it, and said casually, "Isn't it okay to ask?" What's more, why do you have to marry someone else to think that someone loves you? Can't I love you? ”

"Love?" Tsukishima Miwa was noncommittal, and smiled contemptuously: "Terashimagawa, you are still too young, there are some things that should not be easily promised to others. Promise represents hope, and it is cruel to give hope and take it away if you can't do it. ”

“.....”

It was much later that Terashimagawa understood the meaning of Miwa Tsukishima's words.

I'm sorry, but he was too young to know how to love someone. ’

"I'm sleepy, you can get out quickly." After saying that, Miwa Tsukishima lowered the backrest and half-lay down on the chair to prepare for a lunch break.

Terashimagawa watched the woman who was defenseless against him sleeping in front of him, he was a little moved, and slowly stretched out his right hand and put it on the back of the woman's hand.

Still didn't move, as if he didn't notice it, Terashimagawa was a little bolder, and slowly opened his palm to hold the woman's left hand, interlocking her fingers, and the love on the two bracelets instantly combined together.

Miwa Tsukishima still looked as usual, but her eyelids subconsciously lifted, as if she wanted to open her eyes, but in the end she chose to close them.

"Island." Looking at the woman pretending to be asleep in front of him, Terashimagawa said softly: "You may be right, I am still young and should not make a hasty promise. I don't know how long I'll like it, even for a day, even for a year, even for a lifetime. But no matter what, I want you to be happy, so I won't ruin you. Even if it is humble, even if it is bitter. ”

I don't know what to do, and I go deep.

Maybe that's what it says.

Thankfully, the tears flow in your heart, and you can't see them.

Miwa Tsukishima tried to open her eyes, but she still closed them, just like talking in a dream, saying incomprehensible words: "Worry because of love, fear because of love." If you are separated from your loved one, you will have no worries or fears. ”

He took the woman's hands in his palms and clenched them tightly in his arms: "No matter what, I will not leave you." ”

Just like that rainy night, he once looked at the car in the distance and muttered to himself: I have worked so hard to finally learn how to protect you, but fortunately it is not too late.

"But... You're always my student..."

Miwa Tsukishima's tone is still normal, but her voice is trembling, and it seems that she is affected by holding hands.

"Then I will start next semester, and I will not choose you as my course teacher for public elective courses."

“.... Then you must not fall behind in your studies, and you will not be able to meet ... Remember to ask more people and find more information. ”

"Hey!"

Terashimagawa sat beside her, and the two were already very close, and their fingers were interlocked and snuggled together. Miwa Tsukishima still has the same tone and expression as an educational student, but her face has turned slightly red.

"Dao'er, then you're tonight... Still on a blind date? ”

He wrapped one hand around the woman's waist and leaned down to look at the woman's face with her eyes closed.

“.... I do not know. ”

"You just said that a promise is hope, and it is cruel to give hope and then take it away."

Miwa Tsukishima raised her eyelids and glanced at him, automatically ignoring the dog's paws on her waist, and just looked at each other quietly: "It's not like I can refuse if I want to, my mother she... Hmm..."

Terashimagawa didn't say much, leaned down and kissed it.

Miwa Tsukishima blinked her eyes and couldn't speak, and after some fruitless struggle, she simply closed her eyes.

Just then, the phone on the desk rang.

Terashimagawa was shocked and was relieved to find that it was not someone knocking on the door, but the ringing of a mobile phone call.

Just as he was distracted, Miwa Tsukishima had already opened her eyes, pushed him away hard, and then reached out to wipe the corners of her mouth.

"It's getting too much, stay away from me!"

Tsukishima Miwa couldn't hide her shame and anger in her calmness, and there was a hint of anger in her tone, and if you listened carefully, there was a hint of complaint in it.

As she spoke, she reprimanded Terashima River while tidying up her slightly messy clothes, and then put her hands on her hips and skirt and stroked it down, sitting in an elegant and sharp posture, her two black silk legs were close and clinging to each other, but she ignored that there were still a few silky strands of hair stuck to her lips.

"Dao'er, I'll go first."

Seeing that she was on the verge of polarizing anger and calmness again, Terashimagawa immediately retreated and slipped away.

The phone kept ringing, and Miwa Tsukishima didn't care about criticizing him, so she quickly picked up her mobile phone and answered it.

It's just that when she saw the call notes on the mobile phone screen, she couldn't hide her panic when she was calm.

"Doodoo.....

"Mom, you... What called me suddenly? ”

"Meihe, why didn't your mother reply to your message just now?"

"Oh... Didn't look at my phone during my lunch break. ”

Well, I was indeed on a lunch break, but I didn't fall asleep, I was coaxed by the little man's sweet words, I was secretly held by the little man, and I was secretly kissed by the little man when he was unprepared.

"That's right, by the way, just now your Aunt Kurashiki sent the address of tonight's blind date meeting, and asked me to send the other party's photo and contact information to you to see. I took a look at the photos, it's pretty good, the same age as you, and the job is stable, what do you think? ”

“.... Mom, I'm not going on a blind date. ”

“.....”

Didn't you just say yes last night? Why do you suddenly say that you won't go if you don't go? Could it be that this man's photo is not to his liking after reading it? But his own daughter is not a beauty control, not to mention that the man in the photo is not ugly.

"Miwa! I've already told your Aunt Kurashiki, and I've even made a reservation for the location of the Western restaurant. You just go to meet and chat, and you don't have to go there once to negotiate. If you don't go now, I won't be able to explain it to your Aunt Kurashiki. ”

"I have a boyfriend." Miwa Tsukishima looked at the silver bracelet on her wrist and said in a calm tone, throwing her bombshell with her hand.

"Got a boyfriend? Miwa-chan, you can't lie to your mother, right? ”

Does her daughter have a partner, what would she not know?! Running at two o'clock every day, I've never seen her have too much contact with other men, but now she tells her that she has a boyfriend, and there is one more person out of thin air, how can she believe it?!

If you have a boyfriend, why did you come back from a business trip to Nara last night and directly promise her that she was going on a blind date tonight, is it okay to add to yourself?!

And so on –

A beam of light flashed through Tsukishima Lihua's mind, and at the same time, she couldn't believe her daughter's words, but at the same time, she felt that she had grasped something.

Boyfriend? Daughter? Nara? Mood disorders? Lipstick?

Last night, my daughter came home looking unrelieved, and her mood was unusually low. obviously put on a delicate makeup, but the lipstick was printed, on the grounds that he forgot to touch up his makeup after eating.

Now that I think about it, is it - her baby daughter went to Nara for three days to get off the list?!

That lipstick mark was accidentally spent when she kissed her boyfriend?!

Tsukishima Lihua was a little incredulous, and her tone was serious and serious: "Do you really have a boyfriend?" When did it happen? Why are you telling your mom now?! ”

“.... You didn't ask. ”

Miwa Tsukishima bit her lip, fortunately it was a phone communication, and it was estimated that she would have been recognized by her mother long ago if she was face-to-face.

She promised Terashima Chuan not to go on a blind date, so she took Terashima Chuan out as a shield.

As for boyfriends? I still haven't agreed to be with this little milk dog!

Let's play first, at least wait until the other party graduates from college.

Obviously, she could hear the Honshu Island where she was playing.

Mrs. Tsukishima Lika, who was overwhelmed by the huge surprise that her daughter had a boyfriend, was not so calm, on the one hand, the sorrow of worrying about her daughter's lifelong events was completely gone, and on the other hand, the joy of hoping to hug her grandson finally came.

"You girl, I won't tell you yourself if I don't ask. By the way, where is that boy from? How old is that? What does it do? Are there any pictures for mom to see...."

"Also, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, why don't you take him home for me tonight, okay?"

Hearing his mother's inquiry, Professor Tsukishima, who was as strong as Tsukishima, suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Until she heard the last sentence, Tsukishima Miwa's expression changed slightly, and she did not hesitate to reject her mother's ardent hope to understand her son-in-law: "Not good! ”

Reika Tsukishima: "....."

The female university is not staying.

However, this made her more and more curious about this future son-in-law whom she had never met.
