After writing the book, all of Yokohama wanted to hunt me down

"do you know?

The value of things is often not limited to themselves, but lies in the additional meaning that people give them.

No matter how ordinary something is, it can become an irreplaceable existence. 』

The readers' letters were read one after another, and the replies were sent out. During this time, Yuan Xuan's gift was almost ready.When she put away the last stitch and finished knitting the scarf, she suddenly retreated from the bottom of her heart.

The more you look forward to the upcoming things, the more tension and fear you can't help but feel.Hesitation, hesitation, Yuan Xuan thought, when will she be able to do what she wants to do in one go?

She still failed to be a brave person.

But full of hesitation, she waited for Shibusawa Tatsuhiko's birthday.

This white scarf woven by herself is Yuanxuan's birthday present to Shibusawa Tatsuhiko.

When she lived with Shibusawa Tatsuhiko for the second year, Yuan Xuan learned about his birthday when the other party celebrated her birthday.

His birthday is on May [-]th, in the first season of the year, in the warm spring.

Yuan Xuan likes spring very much, and there are many beautiful moments in her memory, which should happen in a warm and sunny season, making the already beautiful memory even more splendid.

"If possible, I hope to create our own memories." Yuan Xuan came to prepare a gift for Shibusawa Tatsuhiko with this in mind.

On his birthday, Shibusawa Tatsuhiko prepared to go out early in the morning, he seemed unaware of what day it was, and when he left, he looked the same as usual.

Yuan Xuan stood in the entrance and looked at him, when he held the doorknob, she made a sound.

"When will I be back today?"

Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, who had his back to her, turned around after hearing the question, looked at Yuan Xuan's face, he thought for a while, "It might be late. Don't wait for me to have dinner."

When Yuanxuan first came, Shibusawa Ryuhiko came home very late once, and she was too cautious at that time, even when she was alone at home.

When Shibusawa Tatsuhiko came back, he saw a small figure curled up on the sofa in the living room. The little girl with pink and purple hair accidentally fell asleep while waiting for him to come back.

Shibusawa Tatsuhiko didn't wake her up either, he gently picked her up and put her back on her own bed.As a result, after waking up the next morning, Yuan Xuan apologized for this for a long time.

She lowered her head and said like she was about to cry in front of Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, "Did I cause you trouble again..."

Shibusawa Ryuhiko, who didn't find it troublesome at all, embraced her in his arms.

"There's no need to wait for me," he held the thin hand, "this is your home too, you can do whatever you want, you don't need anyone's permission, and you don't need to follow anyone's instructions."

Words have great power, and words from the heart can soothe a fragile and timid heart.

Yuan Xuan plucked up her courage, "Then what if I want to wait for you?"

She got the answer from the other party, "Then, I will definitely come back as soon as possible. I won't let you wait until you fall asleep."

From then on, when Shibusawa Tatsuhiko was about to go out, Yuan Xuan would ask him when he would come home from time to time.She likes the word "home" and maybe they could be "family" if they could.

Therefore, after hearing Shibusawa Tatsuhiko say that it may be very late, Yuan Xuan is very worried that he will miss today.Today is a very special day, it's his birthday, and it's the day she wants to give him a birthday present.

If you miss it, the beauty left in the memory will lose a lot of luster.

In many cases, the reason why something is valuable does not lie in its own pure value, but in its external and added meaning.

The dinner with the one you like will become extra delicious, the road you walk with the one you care about will become brighter, and if you go to see the cherry blossoms with the one you love, that moment will become the most beautiful scenery in the world.

Yuan Xuan hopes that this memory will become more beautiful, so today must not be missed.

So she took Shibusawa Ryuhiko's finger and asked him gently if he could come back earlier.

"Even if it's just a little earlier..." She originally said this, but felt that the expression was not accurate enough, so she added, "I want to have dinner with you."

This is the truth.

Shibusawa Tatsuhiko agreed to her request.

What should a birthday have?

Such a question made Yuan Xuan think for a long time.She thought about her birthday.

In this world, Shibusawa Tatsuhiko bought her a cake, and he put candles on it. After lighting it, the atmosphere fell into a subtle silence. They watched the candle flickering like this. After a while, Shibusawa Tatsuhiko seemed like It reminded her to blow out the candles as if thinking of something.

But he forgot that there was a wishing session before blowing out the candles.

This made Yuan Xuan realize that he was not familiar with this kind of thing.

Afterwards, Shibusawa Ryuhiko, who suddenly remembered the part of making a wish, asked Yuan Xuan to make up for it, and he asked Yuan Xuan if he had any wishes.

"Anything you want is fine." Shibusawa Tatsuhiko said while holding her hand.

Having said that, Yuan Xuan is actually very clear that not all wishes are possible to come true, some wishes are destined to be buried in the heart, and can never be revealed in any way.

Except for things related to her brother, she actually didn't have any desire to speak out.

She thought for a while, then suddenly said, "I want to know your birthday."

So she got a date that Shibusawa Tatsuhiko had never told anyone before.It took him a long time to remember.

Shibusawa Tatsuhiko did not celebrate his birthday, this is Yuan Xuan's intuition.A child who was born in anticipation and grew up full of love will never forget his birthday.

Even if they say I will never remember, there will be countless people to help them remember.

When Yuanxuan was young, there was no shop selling cakes in their village. She learned about the existence of cakes from the stories her brother read to her.

I heard that this is a must-have thing for birthdays.

There was never a "cake" in Yuan Xuan's birthday.This left traces in her young heart.

Want to see it with your own eyes, want to have it for yourself... For things that have never been obtained, for those beautiful things, people will have a natural yearning.

At that time, Yuan Xuan's birthday was coming soon, and she couldn't forget that she had to eat cake on her birthday.The strange performance caught the attention of the elder brother, and after everyone fell asleep, the elder brother came to Yuan Xuan's room.

"Can you tell me?" He lifted the corner of the quilt, pressed against Yuan Xuan's back, and called her name in a low voice, "What is Xuan thinking?"

He will always be the first to notice Yuan Xuan's strangeness, and the intimacy between them is better than that of parents.A heart that beats in a body that flows with the same blood will always reserve a place for the other.

But now, in Yuan Xuan's life, there appeared another person who, like her brother, could immediately perceive her inner thoughts.

However, Shibusawa Tatsuhiko is different from her brother, he will never take her brother's place.In Yuan Xuan's heart, Shibusawa Tatsuhiko would not be anyone's substitute.

She wants to do something for him, something for his birthday.She remembered her brother walking hours into town the day before her birthday when he learned of her wish for a birthday cake in the dark of night.

He bought back a small cake.

It was the best food Yuan Xuan had ever eaten.

For Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, Yuanxuan went out alone for the second time.She is also going to buy a cake.

Unlike yarn balls, bakeries and dessert shops can be found everywhere. In a big city like Yokohama, it is easy to find a shop that can buy cakes.

But in that shop, she met a man.

With short red hair, tea-brown eyes, and a sand-colored windbreaker, Yuan Xuan watched him find a seat and sit down, then opened the book in his hand.

The title of the book is "Memory".

It is a novel written by Yuan Xuan.

This was the first time she saw someone she had never met read the words she had written. The special emotion made her keep her eyes on the other person for a long time, but at this moment, the other person raised her face.

Their eyes met.

The man's face had an extremely dull expression, and his body exuded a calm aura, as non-threatening as grass and trees. Even a timid child like Yuan Xuan was not afraid of the other party's sight at all.

Oda Sakunosuke is a low-level employee of the port Mafia.

Although he has a meager salary, he adopted a young child some time ago, which made the already poor family even worse.But even so, Oda Sakunosuke did not give up his dream.

He wants to be a novelist.

Write stories, create life, put everything on paper with pen...

In his rare free time, he would go to the bookstore.

Because he is a regular customer of the bookstore, the boss is already very familiar with this taciturn man. Today, when he went to buy books as usual, the boss gave him a novel.

"It's not written by a well-known novelist. I haven't heard of this author's name before. For the sake of your frequent visits, I will give it to you."

That's what the boss told him.

Oda Sakunosuke, who doesn't know how to refuse and is not good at accepting others' kindness, just brought it to a nearby dessert shop.He wants to buy a cake for the kid he adopted.

But from the moment he sat down, he found that someone was watching him.

His instinct as a killer made him easily find the owner of his sight - a girl with pink and purple hair.He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, pale and thin.

"You..." He sensed what the other party really cared about, so he closed the book in his hand and handed it to the other party, "Do you want to read this?"
