When Ando saw the Osechi dishes in the freezer of the convenience store, he realized that today was the last day of the year-end.

After returning from Osaka, he has been in a state of confusion.

The sadder thing than despair is that the flame of hope that was given to him was snuffed out in front of his eyes.

Worry never thought of looking for him.

The clerk on duty was playing with his mobile phone boredly. When he saw Ando taking a bento, he gave him a sympathetic look, and pointed to the shelf not far away: "Would you like some soba noodles?"

Ando smiled sarcastically.

No one expects him to live a long life, they only expect him to die early.He didn't eat this, which was exactly what they wanted.

He ignored the clerk and pointed to the Seven Star cigarettes on the shelf with his chin: "A pack of No. 73."

The clerk stood up and paid him the bill lazily.

After Ando finished his bento in the store, when he walked out of the store, a strong wind happened to blow, and it poured into his collar mercilessly.

He cursed secretly, put his hands in his pockets, and walked slowly towards the office.

The Kamezuka Inari Shrine is on the side of the road, there is still a long time before zero, and there are not many people on the road.

The past kept coming, and Ando's footsteps also slowed down, stopping in front of a big tree near the torii gate.

It was here that he kissed Yuu Manshima for the first time.

He once regretted very much why he took that step in the first place.

Having it and then losing it is far more painful than never having it.Until now, he still remembers her expression at that time, the touch of her lips, and the smell of wine mixed with the smell of smoke.

He could never touch her again.

Today, Ando can reluctantly accept this reality.They are like two intersecting lines, they have only been entangled for a few months before moving towards the two ends of the plane and drifting away.

Maybe you still have his number and remember his name, but what about five or ten years from now?Her eyes will definitely be occupied by another man, and she will form a family with that man, right?

She would do all the things he dreamed of with another man, and he could only watch silently... No, he couldn't even see.

This fact made his internal organs ache.

Ando leaned against the tree, lit the cigarette in his mouth, and suddenly heard an uncle calling him.

"Yo, little brother, borrow a fire."

Ando handed over the lighter.

The uncle thanked him, took a deep breath on his cigarette, and exhaled a cloud of white air into the air.

"Ah, it's so cool."

Ando originally planned to leave after smoking this one, but the uncle talked to him: "Brother, what are you doing here alone?"

Ando didn't bother to pay attention to him, raised the cigarette in his hand, and returned the uncle with a questioning look.

The uncle smiled "hehe".

"Sneaking out to smoke behind your wife's back? What a coincidence, me too."

The smile on his face obviously hurt Ando, ​​and he gave the uncle a bad look: "I don't have a wife."

The uncle let out a "huh", looked at Ando carefully, and then pointed to another street not far away: "You don't live near here? I remember that I have seen you all?"

He thought for a while, and soon realized: "Oh, is it a girlfriend?"

Only then did Ando recall that that seemed to be the only way to get back to his place from the famous doctor's agency in Shenbara, and the person the uncle was talking about should be Yu Mandao.

This made his already heavy heart even worse.

But he didn't refute the man's words, because only in this way, he could briefly forget the fact that she had left him.

Seeing that Ando didn't say a word, the uncle sighed self-consciously: "When I saw your girlfriend, I remembered my wife's appearance when she was young, but it's a pity that she was not very good at dressing up at that time, otherwise she might have the same as your girlfriend." Fighting."

Ando sneered.

Even without the filter between lovers, he still feels that there is no more beautiful woman in this world than Yu Mandao.

However, the uncle is also self-aware, so he changed the battle line: "A beautiful woman must be pampered every day, unlike my wife who cooks well..."

"She cooks delicious food, too."

Ando couldn't hold back, and replied him.

Seeing the frustration in the uncle's eyes, Ando didn't feel the joy of victory in his heart.The two of them have been separated for so long, and it's pointless to show them off, it just adds to his pity.

He had finished smoking his second cigarette, and when he touched his phone, he found that the screen was pitch black, and the battery had long since run out.

Unexpectedly, the uncle glanced at it, gave a "tsk", and patted him on the shoulder seemingly sympathetically: "You are finished, you have been out for so long and you have turned off the phone, go back and wait and kneel on the washboard."

"will not."

There was no one waiting for him there.

Ando twitched the corners of his mouth mockingly, and took another cigarette into his mouth.

His arrogant attitude made the uncle couldn't help being speechless: "Could it be a quarrel?"

"Break up." Ando replied lightly.

"Hey, young people really are. What's the fuss about the New Year's Eve, do you want to have a good meal?" The uncle persuaded earnestly: "Woman, bow your head and admit your mistake, won't you be fine if you coax her well?"

"Can't be coaxed." Ando lowered his eyes: "She's gone."

The uncle was stunned for a long time before he realized that what he said before was piercing the heart of the other party. He said "oh" and said "sorry" to Ando dully.

Ando waved his hand generously.

"Go back quickly, don't really kneel on the washboard."

The uncle touched the cigarette in his pocket, hesitating whether to accompany him for a while, after thinking about it, he decided to go home to accompany his wife.

But before leaving, he frowned again: "No, I seem to have seen her just now?"

Ando didn't take it seriously: "You read it wrong."

The uncle muttered in a low voice: "Your girlfriend is so conspicuous, you shouldn't be mistaken. Do all the beauties in the world look the same?"

Hearing what he said, Ando's chest tightened inexplicably, and he began to feel slightly hot.

What he said seemed impossible.

You's friend lives near here, maybe she really passed by here before.

Ando resolutely pinched the cigarette that had just been lit in his hand, and ran towards the direction of the Kanbara famous doctor introduction office.

He wants to see her.

Even if he didn't know what to say when he saw her, even if he could only look at her from a distance, he was satisfied.He doesn't want you to disappear from his world, she is the last ray of light he can catch, he only has her left.

But the small wooden attic on the second floor was not lit.

Total darkness.

Ando's shoulders sank completely.

Sure enough, it was impossible for Man Daoyou to appear here, the uncle was wrong.

He kicked hard on the iron gate of the yard, and the chain on the gate rubbed against the lock, making a crisp "bang".

Ando stroked his hair in frustration, leaned against the wall, and slid on the cold ground, not even in the mood to smoke.

On the last day of the year-end, no one will pay attention to a stray dog. Even if he starves to death or freezes to death in a dark corner of the street, the first ones to find him will be the flock of crows looking for food.

It's time for him to go back.

Ando stood up with difficulty, and walked back in a daze.

This year's New Year's Day in Tokyo was surprisingly cold, and the temperature had already dropped to zero. He didn't feel it at all before, but now he finally felt the biting chill.

The office is close at hand.

There are too many memories with her here, he doesn't want to go in, but he doesn't know where to go.

Standing at the street corner for a long time, Ando finally moved his steps and walked towards the dark and cramped corridor.

Suddenly, there was an inaudible cough from the shadow of the building.

Ando's footsteps stopped again.

A beautiful woman in a camel trench coat was curled up in a corner under the stairs, breathing hot air into her palms.Her shoulders were thin, and half of her calf was exposed under the knitted dress, which made her look extremely cold.

Ando seemed to be choked by someone, unable to say anything until he met the woman's eyes.

"you……"

You stood up and pursed her lips to greet him.

"Mr. Loyalty, long time no see."

Complicated emotions stirred in Ando's internal organs.The possibility of her appearing here is so low that he still has no way of distinguishing whether the person in front of him is his fantasy or reality.

"……why……"

He murmured softly, as if talking to himself.

You seemed to have expected that he would ask such a question a long time ago, without much hesitation, she replied with a smile: "I probably want to see you."

The cold snow fell on Ando's face, and was quickly burned by the heat of his body, including his chest.

Seeing him not speaking for a long time, You felt a little embarrassed.

She thought that it was normal for them not to know what to say after they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so she took the initiative to find a topic: "It's really cold today. I was thinking just now, if I can't wait for you any longer, I should just leave ..."

Hearing the word "go" out of her mouth, Ando's heart twitched violently, grabbed her hand, and hugged her into his arms.

"Don't go."

At this moment, Ando finally had the opportunity to say that sentence of retention that was two years late.

But worry almost without hesitation, put his arms around the man's shoulders.

Good thing she bet right.

Ando's body was very hot, her ears and temples hurt from the stubble, the bitter smell of smoke on her clothes was too strong to melt away, and the strength of her arms seemed to crush her bones.

But this feeling of suffocation did not make her feel painful. She really missed him so much that she even wanted to merge with him.

"Ah."

She responded softly, and stroked his cheek with her fingers.

Ando's skin was colder than her hands, and she didn't know how long she had been outside, her cheekbones were more prominent than before, and she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

She suddenly heard a man whispering in her ear: "You've lost weight."

This made her laugh out loud.

"You too," she held his face in both hands, and placed a soft kiss on his chin: "You must not have eaten well."

Ando's heart had already turned into a puddle of water.

He didn't have the energy to think about the reason why she was here, he just wanted to look at her, hug her, and feel her temperature and breath.He didn't dare to kiss her, didn't dare to move, for fear that the person in front of him would suddenly burst like a bubble and disappear from his world again.

The author has something to say:
