[Black Basket] Never expected

I blinked vigorously, and after I gradually became familiar with the dazzling light, the appearance of that person gradually became clear in my eyes.

"...Kasamatsu-kun?"

Although we are both in the third grade, and the distance between the classrooms is not too far, except when I, as a subject representative, go to the office to move homework, I can occasionally see him being caught by teachers of various subjects to make up homework. In fact, we don't meet often.

The last few times, they all appeared just when I was ashamed. Is this also the arrangement of fate?

I retracted the hand that was about to knock on my forehead calmly, "Long time no see." It seemed a bit impolite to talk to people sitting on the stairs. I tried to stand up with my hands on the ground, but when I got up, suddenly a black -

"Beware!"

In the blink of an eye, Li Song grabbed my collar from behind and pulled me back. I staggered a bit, but fortunately I didn't fall on my back in front of him, but I was shocked. He couldn't catch his breath, so he coughed desperately uncontrollably.

This coughing is like forever, tears are coughing out.

"Hey! Are you okay——" Li Song was at a loss in panic, as if he wanted to pat me on the back, but when he stretched his hand halfway, he suddenly withdrew it as if realizing something; Kasamatsu-kun took out a pack of tissues and handed it to me...

Tears flowed down my cheeks and into the mask, I took the tissue with sobs and said thank you.

He looked at me speechlessly as I turned my back and took off the mask to blow my nose and wipe my tears. After a moment of hesitation, he said out of good intentions: "It's easy to get sick in this weather, girls should take care of themselves."

I stopped wiping my nose for a moment.

This must be just out of concern for the friendship of alumni, and there is no other meaning.

I turned around suspiciously with an inquiring attitude, and sure enough, Kasamatsu's expression was frank.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and thought to myself, I have been a little bit of an underdog lately. Although I feel that my appearance and personality are passable, but being cute...it's really not to that level.

I bowed my body, "Yes, thank you for your concern. The basketball team's recent training is also very heavy, and you should pay more attention to keeping warm."

He lowered his head and glanced at his paper towels, the bag with the pattern of Rilakkuma, this boy is really a childlike innocence.

After saying a few polite words, I was about to take my leave and go back to the classroom to drink some hot milk when he suddenly stopped me: "Hengshan!"

I stopped, "Yes? Is there anything else?"

He raised his eyebrows, "Will you come to watch the InterHigh game next week?"

"next week?"

"Ah, why didn't that Kise guy tell you?"

I started to have a headache again, "Maybe I haven't had time yet."

He scratched his head: "The competition will start this week, but at the beginning they were all non-threatening opponents, so far they can easily advance. In next week's competition, the first player to fight against is the famous Tonghuang High School in Tokyo. , Everyone has been training with all their strength for this competition." He paused for a while, "Because it is a very important competition, I thought Kise would definitely ask his girlfriend to watch, so I wanted to confirm with you."

"Girl, girlfriend?" I suddenly felt a little flustered, "That's how he introduced me to everyone in the basketball club?"

Kasamatsu stared at me suspiciously, "That's not true, it just looks like that kind of relationship. Isn't it? You..."

I shook my head, not wanting to explain in depth.

That would be a long story again.

"Well, anyway, for the competition..." I made rough calculations, then nodded, "I will go. Please let me know the specific time and place."

I could see that Kasamatsu looked at me with obvious puzzlement.

But after all, this good-natured boy didn't ask me some distressing questions. Instead, he readily wrote down my phone number and promised to send me a text message in advance to inform me about the game.

It's not that I don't know the truth of "If you reject someone, don't do something that will cause the other party to misunderstand", but I can't forget Ryota said to me, "My sister Hina has never watched my game "The expression when.

So even if it's just the last time, I want to attend no matter what.

Fortunately, I usually boast of having a good physique, but it took a whole week to recover from the illness.

A call from Liang Nai early in the morning on weekends woke me up from my dream. I lifted the English vocabulary book covering my face and answered the phone in a daze. The girl's voice on the other end was as energetic as ever.

Really enviable.

Obviously both, why do I have to live so tired and old.

I yawned and made a sound, "Hello——I haven't woken up yet..."

"Huh? It's nine o'clock now! I just finished taking photos and wanted to go shopping but no one is with me. Do you want to come, Yangcai?"

I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand, and I replied listlessly, "Please think about how you feel about being an examinee, Ms. Kise Rina..."

"Hey, even candidates need entertainment. Come on, come on, let's celebrate your recovery from illness, let's go eat sushi together! My treat!"

"I don't want it. You can let Chunchuan-kun accompany you."

"Chunchuan-kun is very busy at work."

...It turned out that it was because the boyfriend was away that I thought of my best friend...

I really need to reconsider our friendship.

"Really don't—"

"That's it, see you at the subway station in half an hour."

After finishing speaking, the opposite party unilaterally hung up the phone.

I listened to the "beep" sound from the speaker and looked out the window at the clear sky. I fell into deep helplessness and confusion instantly.

It stands to reason that I should swear to the death that I would not go to Kise Rina's coercive invitation, and I would not go if I said no.

But considering the possible consequences of disobeying "Her Majesty the Queen"—being harassed by her endlessly in the following period of time, I shivered and gave up spinelessly.

More than an hour later, we wandered arm in arm in a fashion brand street in Tokyo.

I pinched her slender arm with resentment on my face: "Didn't you invite me to eat sushi?"

"It's not time to eat now. There are many stores here that are offering seasonal discounts. Don't you feel tempted?"

"I'm not particularly obsessed with famous brands..." What's the matter with Da Qingtian's cold sweat...

Liang Nai held her small bag on one arm, and patted me with the other hand: "If you continue to give up on yourself like this, even an idiot like Liang Tai won't like you anymore."

— Another shot!

I rolled her eyes, she stared back at me, and I immediately surrendered again.

I have to admit that although she is a scumbag with zero combat effectiveness in her studies, no one is her match when it comes to her enthusiasm for shopping.I tried my best, but I couldn't reach one ten-thousandth of it.

She dragged me along without giving up at first, but later, she simply ran to M Ji’s dessert station and bought a cone and stuffed it in my hand, pointing to the benches on the street and saying, “Good boy, over there Sit and wait for me."

In an instant, I felt my dignity being stepped on and stepped on by her with her small high heels; the sad thing is, at the same time, I felt a burst of relief as if I was finally relieved.

The sun in early autumn is not as hot as in summer, and it shines warmly on the body, making people want to stretch.

The street in front of me is full of flagship stores of famous brands from all over the world, half of which I can’t read the names of; my sight sweeps across the facades, and finally stops at a certain point not far away.

It's an expensive sports brand.

I vaguely remember that since Ryota started playing basketball, he has always preferred this brand of sneakers.

I took out my purse and counted the remaining money. There is still a lot of balance in this month's finances.

The match that Kasamatsu told me about before seems to be three days later.

This...as long as Rina bought it for him, it's fine.Absolutely will not be found.

Talking about the past is the past, and turning the page is a new and beautiful future.But in fact, the feeling of guilt has been haunting me, making me want to do something to make up for my "fault".

Although a pair of sneakers is nothing at all, it is my heart after all.

And just when I pushed open the glass door of the sports brand store, I was not mentally prepared at all, and I heard a girl shouting in a crying voice: "I'm shopping with you, Ada, what are you doing?" What's the matter with such a perfunctory attitude! It's too much!"
