After confessing to Waste Chai Gang

During the spring break after graduating from the sixth grade of elementary school, our family moved from Tokyo to a small town called Namori.

Although it is a small town, compared with the international metropolis Tokyo, Bingsheng is more like an undeveloped countryside.

The landform here is strange, not only there are continuous Bingsheng mountains, vast and boundless Bingsheng sea, but even an island also named after Bingsheng.

In addition, there are commercial streets, amusement parks, and aquariums here, and it is like a small kingdom independent of the downtown area of ​​Tokyo.

In the words of my mother, this is a city that is completely suitable for human life.

But from my point of view, apart from the slightly strange terrain, this place is not much different from the city I used to live in. The only thing that can be called comfortable is that the atmosphere of Bingsheng is very peaceful. People here seem to be used to this slow pace of life.

Our new house is located in Namori-cho 10-chome, a large-scale residential area, very close to Namori Middle School where I will be attending, and it only takes [-] minutes to walk.

After packing up my luggage a little, I took the housewarming gift and followed my mother to the neighbor's house whose first house number was Miura.

After explaining the purpose of coming, the door opened quickly.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man wearing glasses, with a slightly fatter figure.But his face was very kind. He opened the door and said in a gentle voice: "Come in, please come in. It's really rare. Bingsheng hasn't had any new residents for a long time."

The kindness is hard to come by, and after thanking my mother, I followed Mr. Miura into the house.

After a brief chat, I learned that Mr. Miura's full name is Miura Haruyoshi, and he is a professor of mathematics at the university.

My mother, who is a kindergarten teacher, was very pleasantly surprised when she heard it. The two of them were like old friends who had been separated for many years. After getting together, they chatted endlessly.

While chatting, Mr. Miura seemed to have remembered something, stood up and raised his voice towards the second floor and shouted: "Xiaoharu, the new neighbor is here to visit—come down quickly!"

I was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that this might be Mr. Miura's daughter.

There was a quick response from the second floor, and with the sound of footsteps going down the stairs, a girl with a ponytail who seemed to be about my age came down.

"Please forgive my rudeness. I forgot to introduce you just now. This is my daughter Haru Miura." Mr. Miura said.

I hurriedly exchanged greetings with her: "It's the first time we meet, I'm Tsuji Haruna who just moved in next door."

Xiaochun is a girl with a very cheerful personality, or a little familiar. After learning that I was going to enter the first year of junior high school like her, she seemed very happy, and soon exchanged the right to call each other's names with me.

It is rare for me to meet someone as enthusiastic as her. I didn't know what to say for a while, so I had to bring over the gift that I had brought and hadn't had time to give away, and motioned for her to open it on the spot.

There is only a simple bow tie on the outside of the box wrapped in plain colored paper.Because it is a meeting gift between neighbors, there is no need to give too expensive things.But it's not good to be too ugly, so I made a simple package.

The box contained the creamy ice cream puffs I made this morning, and I purposely baked the crust to be bigger than the dessert shop so that there would be more when infusing the cream.

It stands to reason that it is better to choose chocolate as a gift.Because you can never go wrong, but I don't like the taste of chocolate.

I looked at Xiaochun nervously, worried that she would not like such a gift.But to my relief, Xiaochun's eyes lit up the moment he opened the box, and he grabbed my hand with emotion.

"Yangcaijiang made this by himself! Wuwuwu Xiaochun is so happy to be able to eat it!"

"If you like it, it's even better."

I blushed a little from her straightforward language.

After leaving Miura's house, my mother and I came to Irie's house on the second floor of the apartment opposite.

If the Miura family is just a simple neighbor relationship, then the relationship between the Irie family and my family is a bit complicated.

There is no other reason. The head of the Irie family, Mr. Masaji Irie, and my father, Kento Tsuji, are currently affiliated to the same company.

Although both are at the cadre level, veteran cadres are still different from new cadres.

I was a little nervous, but my mother didn't change much. She still knocked on the door of Irijiang's house with a smile on her face.

Unexpectedly, it was not Mrs. Irie who opened the door, but a boy who was also about my age.

The boy had brown-red hair, and his long bangs covered the lens of his right eye. When he opened the door and saw a stranger, his expression became a little nervous, as if he wanted to close the door immediately.

But because of impoliteness, he forced himself to stay where he was, so he flinched and said to us, "That... May I ask who are you looking for?"

"We are the Tsuji family who just moved in next door. My husband and Mr. Irie are in the same job relationship. So I specially came to visit today, and brought some home-made housewarming gifts by the way."

Mom explained her intentions in a few words, because she saw the timidity of the boy in front of her, her voice became much gentler.

"Is your adult here? I wonder if it's convenient to bother you today?"

"It turned out to be Mrs. Tsuji..." After clarifying our identities, the boy obviously relaxed a lot, and his voice was no longer as tense as before, "Mom went out to buy groceries, and she won't be back until a while, now I'm the only one at home And my sister... let me invite my sister to entertain you."

The boy's name is Irie Masaichi, the second son of the Irie family. His older sister, Akiko Irie, has a personality completely opposite to his. She looks a bit cold and not easy to get close to.

After Mrs. Irie came back, my mother quickly threw herself into a new round of social interaction. I was so bored that I didn't dare to approach Akiko Irie, so I chose Masaichi Irie, who was timid but obviously very polite, as a conversation object.

"My name is Tsuji Haruna, and I will study in Binsheng Middle School after school starts. Are we from the same school?"

With the idea of ​​trying to make as many new friends as possible before entering a new school, I tried to release the kindness.

But it is a pity that Irie Masaichi is not a student of Bingzhong, and Mrs. Irie has completed the admission procedures for the private middle school for him last week. This news can't help but make me a little frustrated.

Including Irie Masaichi, the two new friends I met today were not in the same age group. Haru Miura told me that she would study in the girls' school Green Middle School, which is a well-known Xueba Middle School.

Maybe it was because my disappointed expression was too obvious, Irie Masaichi hesitantly comforted me: "It's all right... There are a lot of students in Bingsheng Middle School, and you will meet more new friends after school starts."

"Then I will borrow your blessing." I sighed deeply.

Coming out of Irie's house, this is the end of today's social trip, and overall it's pretty good.

My mother came home in a good mood, picked up the canvas bag and prepared to go for a walk in Bingsheng Commercial Street, and by the way familiarize myself with the prices and customs, she asked me if I would go, but I refused.

Interacting with people can be exhausting, especially when meeting someone for the first time.

Because I am not familiar with it, I have to rack my brains to word it, for fear that what I say will accidentally offend the other party.

At the end of the day, I'm exhausted, so I don't have the strength to go shopping with her again.

"Really, it's okay for Xiao Yangcai to be like this all the time. The less you know how to deal with people, the more you should go out to meet people. If you're like this, how can you make a boyfriend in the future?"

My mother complained habitually, and I could already hear what she said, but she didn't force me, and soon went out with her bag.

In fact, I don't know when it started. I would rather stay in the house alone and find something to do than try my best to communicate with people.

At the beginning, I raised some flowers and plants, but unfortunately I lacked some talent in this area, and the beautiful flowers and plants failed to survive in my hands in the end.

So I started to learn to do housework, and finally found that I am very suitable for making some small desserts. The materials are not rare, and it does not take much time. The finished products can be made into various shapes that I like, so it is out of control.

The time passed peacefully for a week, and soon came the day of school.

It was a sunny day on April 4st, and I was not surprised that most of the students were still wearing thick autumn and winter uniforms.

Bingsheng Middle School has two sets of student uniforms. I have to admit that the principal of this school is very aesthetically pleasing. Of these two sets of uniforms, the autumn and winter ones are khaki and dark brown suits, and the spring and summer ones are very British. Shirt and vest system.

Just looking at these two sets of uniforms, I am full of good hopes for the future campus life.

Maintaining this good mood, I ate my breakfast in one go. While I was washing the dishes in the sink, I heard the sweet voice of the host from the TV behind me.

"Welcome to today's horoscope time, let's see who is the king of fortune today? Oh - it turned out to be Pisces! The astrology shows that the overall fortune of Pisces is very good. Not only the actions are smooth, life is easy and comfortable, but also The peach blossom luck also has five stars!"

"Let's take a look at today's most regrettable zodiac sign—hey, it's Libra... Friends of the zodiac sign should be extra careful today, whether it's going to work or school, don't be late. Otherwise, some unpredictable consequences may happen. What an accident!"

After washing the dishes, put the dishes into the cabinet. The time is exactly eight o'clock, and there is still one hour before the opening ceremony.

I turned off the TV with the remote control, and finally checked whether my clothes and appearance were neat in front of the mirror, and went to the entrance to change my shoes.

"I am leaving."

Mom and Dad got up early and went to work.So I had to say this to the empty room.

The air in the morning is exceptionally fresh, and the sky in early spring is as blue as washing, with strands of clouds floating like a scroll of layers of colors, and the bright sunshine is extraordinarily warm.

I walked and watched all the way, and came to the new school just like that. I raised my watch and saw that it was only 13:[-].

Students came in twos and threes at the school gate.But it was the senior seniors standing with their hands behind their backs on both sides of the school gate that caught my attention.

Different from the other students who wore uniforms, these seniors were all wearing black motorcycle jackets, black trousers underneath, and uniform haircuts.No matter how you look at it, it looks like the evil of the Showa era that will be shown in TV dramas.

Keeping my puzzled eyes, I got closer only to find that these seniors had red cuffs hanging on their right upper arms, on which were printed two words in bright yellow letters - Discipline.

I suddenly realized that it turned out to be the discipline committee of Bingzhong.

As expected of a middle school, it is different from the Disciplinary Committee at the Jiajia level in elementary school. The Disciplinary Committee of Bingsheng Middle School looks like a gangster, even with a serious and unsmiling face, as if he might go out to fight with people at any time.

I found the classroom of Class A of National One I was in according to the freshmen's admission class on the Kanban board. As soon as I walked in, I saw welcome streamers hanging all over the wall, and there were many colorful balloons glued to it.

There are still about 10 minutes before the assembly point in the auditorium, and many people have already gathered in the classroom.

I looked around carefully, trying to remember the faces of the students who will accompany me in my three years of middle school career. Maybe it was because I stood at the door for too long. Soon, a girl found me and pulled me away very enthusiastically. went in.

"A new classmate is here, she is a very cute girl!"

The girl who pulled me led me to a circle of people. There were men and women in this circle. I stood on tiptoes and poked my head only to find that each of them was holding a few poker cards in their hands, as if they were playing a game. look.

The girl who pulled me over told me enthusiastically that they were playing a game called Truth or Dare. Everyone would draw two cards from the poker. If they drew cards of the same suit, they would be punished. The punishment could be chosen. The truth can also be a big adventure.

When I came over, they obviously had already played a round. One of the long-haired girls with a dark face was pulling the short-haired girl next to her to quit, and complained at the same time: "Really, I told you not to play this kind of game." It's a game, how can a girl reveal her address casually? What if she is in danger?"

The short-haired girl pulled by her has bright eyes, a soft and lovely face, and looks very beautiful. Many boys around are secretly looking at her.

But she didn't realize that she was concentrating on comforting her friend: "Don't be angry, Hua, we are all classmates, so it's okay."

The long-haired girl known as Hua felt a headache when she heard it: "I said it's not a problem with the game..."

Combining the foreword and the afterword, I reasonably infer that this beautiful girl should be punished after losing the game and chose to tell the truth, but was asked her home address.

Are boys nowadays so scheming?

I became a little interested, and obediently took over the position of the quitting girl, thinking of the horoscope divination I read before going out.

Pisces is the king of fortune today.

……

"Ah, Tsuji-san drew two hearts!"

I:……

hateful……

I viciously buckled the cards upside down.

"Ahaha, I also drew two black flowers." A hearty voice sounded behind me.

I looked back and found that the other person was very tall. I had just reached his chest when I looked at him, and moved to the side in embarrassment for a while.

Raising his eyes, the young man behind him has a clear face, like a big boy without worries.

After finding my gaze, he smiled at me, and his clean smile made my cheeks feel a little hot.

"Oh? Then Yamamoto and Tsuji are going to be punished together." The girl who pulled me over was obviously the initiator of the game. Seeing this, she said with a smile, "Let's choose between the two, is it the truth or a big risk?"

Just when I was in a dilemma, the boy named Yamamoto chose the truth without hesitation, and the students who were playing games around him immediately started playing tricks, throwing him a question one by one.

I listened to those questions such as do you have a favorite person, how often do you take a bath on average, which person in the class you hated the most in cold sweat when you were in elementary school, and what's more, you directly asked Yamamoto, how often do you change your underwear... Listen. The girl next to her covered her face and turned around.

It's too scary to be honest!

After Yamamoto cheerfully answered all the embarrassing and not embarrassing questions, it was finally my turn. Against the eyes of these people, I decisively chose the big adventure.

In any case, a big adventure can't be scarier than the truth, right?

As I expected, the big adventures that follow are all relatively ordinary things, can you help me open the bottle cap when I'm done, then sing a song and uh... squat ten, uh, three times?After that, I finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the girl who pulled me over.

She was the last person who could ask me.

"Your big adventure is too boring... Sure enough, because you are a cute girl, you are merciful?" The girl scratched her head in distress, "But games should have fun."

After I heard it, I also felt a little guilty. Compared with Yamamoto's sincere words, everyone was indeed too gentle to me.

Thinking of this, I plucked up the courage and said to her: "It's okay, no matter what the request is, I can accept it."

The girl's eyes lit up: "Really? Then I'll be rude..."

After she finished speaking, she looked back at the clock hanging on the wall, and soon had an idea.

"It's already 27:[-], and it's about time for everyone to come together. Hmm... So, until [-]:[-], the last boy to enter the classroom, how about Tsuji-san going to confess to him?"

As soon as the words came out, I couldn't help but froze.

Sue, confess?

Hua, the long-haired girl who was still watching even though she quit the game, frowned disapprovingly: "Isn't it good to make fun of this kind of thing? What if the confessed guy takes it seriously?"

The girl who is the creator of the game saw my hesitation, and quickly added: "It's okay, just explain to him that we are making a game when the time comes!"

"Even if you said that..." Hua still looked disapproving, but she didn't continue talking.

That beautiful short-haired girl stood beside her, looking at me with a little worry in her eyes.

I saw something was wrong from their expressions, and I was still hesitating, but was gently pushed towards the door by the initiator.

Habitually walked a few steps forward with this force, and was caught off guard and collided with the boy who rushed to the classroom in a hurry.

I swayed all over, and quickly supported the table to stabilize my body, while the boy who stepped on the point fell directly to the ground, obviously a few brand-new textbooks fell out of the schoolbag that I had hurriedly carried on my back and didn't have time to zip it up.

"Sorry!" I quickly apologized, knelt down/body to help him pick up the books scattered on the ground, and accidentally saw his name written on the cover of the book.

"Hiss... Pain..."

The boy named Tsunayoshi Sawada was rubbing his brow that was bumped red by me, and subconsciously took the book I handed over, his brown eyes were clear to the bottom, and he showed some doubts when he saw me: "Are you ?”

"I'm Tsuji Haruna, this is the first time we've met, we've been classmates since this semester."

I introduced myself reflexively, and then I froze when I heard two reminding coughs from the classroom behind.

"So it's a new classmate..."

Sawada put the textbook back into his schoolbag, rubbed his head and got up from the ground. He was just about to enter the classroom, but he stopped in doubt when he passed me.

"You seem very nervous, is it because school starts?"

I didn't expect my emotions to be so exposed, coupled with what I was about to say to him, just imagining it made my face burn from my ears to the base of my neck.

I lowered my head in shame, and said vaguely: "I&?%&?%..."

"What?" Sawada obviously didn't hear clearly, and I felt the eyes of a strange opposite sex above my head, wishing that my whole body would evaporate on the spot.

"I said I&?%&?%……"

Sawada was at a loss: "Huh? Can you speak a little louder?"

There was no other way, I summoned up the courage to raise my head, and said loudly to him: "I said, I like you, please date me!"

Sawada: ...

Sawada?

Sawada!

I watched him turn red from the base of his neck to the back of his ears almost in an instant.

In this way, two big tomatoes appeared in front of the classroom.

In the noisy voices behind me, I seem to hear a familiar female voice in a daze: "I just confessed, I didn't say that I want to ask for a relationship with the other party..."

It's a pity that now I can't pay attention to them at all. My mind is full of "Oh, oh, oh, oh, how should I explain to him later!" and so on.

Seeing that the boy in front of me was stunned by the sudden confession, he stood there stiff and speechless for a long time, I realized that I had to do something at this moment to break this embarrassing situation.

So I held my head that was about to smoke, and said to another tomato that was also smoking: "That... sorry, this is actually..." A punishment game of truth or dare.

Before I could say the most important half sentence, the tomato in front of me suddenly moved.

Then, I heard the boy's hoarse voice.

"Okay, okay..."

……

I like you, please date me!

ok, ok...

I got stuck all of a sudden.

Looking at the twinkling eyes of the young man in front of me, I could clearly see timidity, confusion and temptation from his eyes, and I could even see his cautiousness after saying this answer.

His expression was as if he was ready to accept what I said was just a joke, don't take it seriously, as if he had been teased countless times, so he didn't have any hope from the very beginning.

His reaction, and his careful expression, seemed to confirm whether the person who teased him got the pleasure he deserved from his reaction.

I obviously hate interacting with people the most.

But at this moment, I understood his expression at the moment.

Did I do the same thing that would hurt him if I told the truth?

With this thought in mind, the following words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say it no matter what.
