trace in pocket

A friendly and calm smile: "...I'm sorry, I'm a bit groggy when we meet for the first time. Hello, aunt. My name is Yushi Ninzu. I didn't know that my aunt was at home. I didn't prepare a gift. I'm very sorry."

"It's all right, Shinozu? Hey, you came to see our family Kanako. I didn't prepare a gift for you when we met for the first time. I'm really sorry... Kanako please let me sit down. I'll prepare some tea. Let's talk a few words~~"

"……OK."

Kanako trembled when she saw her mother turned around and entered the kitchen. She couldn't help but shake Ninzuzu's arm twice, and grabbed him with her fingers, making him smile innocently: "Ah, ah, don't Nervous... I forgot to notify you before I came. I planned to... It turned out to be such a coincidence, no wonder you asked me to come back to the contact department... Hey, Auntie Hayakawa, you must have misunderstood me and you, right? ?”

Do you still need to answer this kind of thing... Kanako, who was covered in blood, grabbed Shinobu's arm and said nothing. Carrying food, he came out with a smile: "It's been a long time~~ I don't know if Ninzuki likes to eat this kind of biscuit, this is Kanako's favorite thing~~"

"Thank you, auntie... Well, Kanako likes it, let me taste it.... Hey, it tastes good."

"Really? It seems that Shinozu and Kanako have similar tastes. By the way, Kanako's cooking is delicious~ Let's stay here for dinner today? Is Shinozu free? Let Kanako cook a few dishes, they taste delicious oh~~"

"Huh? Is it okay?" He pretended not to see her tearful eyes, and nodded without any hesitation.My mother doesn't know that this guy has eaten his own cooking, shameless!Hayakawa Reiko talked endlessly, she and Shinozu were chatting and laughing happily, and Kanako, whose sense of existence seemed to be nothingness, almost burst into tears.

...It doesn't matter if you ignore her, she wants to enter the room to see how the little man is doing, so why won't she let her go! !

... She was just worried that the other party stayed in the drawer for a few days, and didn't see him go to the toilet ... Is this really a man? _(:3)∠)_

Kanako, who was foolishly scratching the wall secretly, had no idea that these two people came and went because of herself, and there was no lack of tentative scrutiny between you and me - stupid people often have a lot less troubles.The girl with a sloppy head and intestines can only wonder why the other party makes a bad face when they see her. Her guesses are always superficial, and it is always capillaries that hit the nail on the head.

……

The three of them had a harmonious meal, and the atmosphere at the table was very warm and cheerful. The funny son-in-law, the cute daughter, and the performance of the junior made Hayakawa Reiko very satisfied.She even forgot how she felt when she received that call.

After the meal, I sent Yushi Ninzu away, and when I was parting, I kindly invited Yushi Ninzu to come to play abroad in the future. Sitting in the living room and watching the two walk away side by side, she was also smiling and full of joy.

Although she is not sure how long the other party will develop with her daughter, this does not prevent her from developing a good impression of the boy Kanako likes.

Yushi Ninzu is really a well-rounded person. Compared with boys of the same age, he is much calmer in front of his elders.As long as he restrains his usual slightly yuppie personality, it will only make people feel that this young man is very sincere and stable, and occasionally some naughty jokes are within the acceptable range, and he is very pleasing to the elders.

Hayakawa Reiko really likes this boy.

She smiled and glanced at Kanako who was walking back after sending Ninzu out of the door, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that her daughter was a good match for that boy.When she came to sit beside her, she couldn't help asking in a gentle voice: "Hey, Kanako is unhappy, is she shy?"

"...Mom, you're thinking too much. I'm not unhappy... I'm just a little surprised."

It's hard to reject her mother's enthusiasm, and she can't explain the current situation. She smiled, and the other party's expression slowly calmed down.She looked at her for a while, and suddenly reached out to stop her shoulder apologetically: "...Hey, I'm sorry, maybe my mother is impatient. In fact, I just don't want Kanako to be alone... You are alone I’ve lived here for so long, and your father and I have been absent for so long, I’ve always felt sorry. Mom’s flight is going back tomorrow. Before leaving, I always hope that if there is anything Kanako likes, I will satisfy you. Bring it in front of you. If Kanako loses her mind, it's my mother's fault, and if Kanako doesn't like it, I won't be like this in the future..."

The woman who gave her life had a gentle smile on her face, her eyes were sparkling, her temples were not gray, but disobedient fine lines had sneaked up at the corners of her eyes.

Kanako suddenly remembered that she wrote essays when she was a child, my mother.She always writes, my mother is young and beautiful, she has a beautiful smile, and her face is not wrinkled like other mothers... I don't know about other mothers, but mine There is only one, she is the best mother in the world, I love my mother.

It turned out that when she didn't notice it, her mother was already old.

She began to gradually feel sorry for leaving her here alone, and she began to hope to give her all the best she wanted... Maybe there was a long distance between them, but at this moment, Kanako threw herself on herself In her mother's arms, she still felt that she was the best mother.

It is unique in the world, Hayakawa Kanako's, her favorite mother.

19 gone

It feels like the past few days have passed quickly, but in retrospect, it seems that a lot of things have happened.

Standing at the airport with Yushi Ninzu and seeing off her mother, Kanako rubbed her eyes, feeling a little sad and helpless.

In the end, I can only give a beautiful illusion, pretending that I have a boyfriend, someone takes care of me here, and I can live a good life alone.Since I will definitely go back to them this year, let's let my parents feel at ease before going back.

With such hope in mind, she tried her best to cooperate with Ninzu Yushi, pretending that she and him were indeed a couple. Although the mother didn't say it, she could see that she was also very happy.When he left to board the plane at the end, he was also smiling, and even pulled Yushi Shinozu to secretly say something.The two actually had nothing to do with each other, and Kanako didn't worry too much. After she left, she relaxed, patted her chest, and was about to speak, but the other party stretched out her long arms to hold her in his arms, and said with a smile, "Hey Now, don't worry, let's go home."

In fact, he turned his face to her ear and whispered, "Don't be careless".

She had an illusion in a trance, if it weren't for the too different intonations of the two voices, such a sentence almost reminded her of the person she hadn't seen for a long time.

If Rie Inoue is her lifetime nightmare, then that person is the regret she will never let go of in her life.

The palm on her arm was lightly exerted, and she reacted, turning her face with a look of suppressing her sadness and trying to smile: "Um... okay, let's go home."

She is not sensitive enough to feel what the other party is wary of, and acting is enough.The two returned home safely, the curtains were drawn early in the morning, and the home is still safe at present, Yushi Ninzu let out the hand around her shoulder after entering the door, and ran into Keigo Atobe walking out of the study. If there is a real look in his eyes, he smiled slightly and spread his hands: "Well... the situation is compelling."

"..." The other party gave a slight pause, looked away without responding, jumped onto the sofa, and sat down expressionlessly, "Ah, what happened, bear with it."

"..."

Ninja Yuuji winked at her and sold Xiao Moe, Kanako covered her face and smiled, and she was indeed in a better mood.Seeing that the two had a serious conversation, she also smiled at Atobe who was on the sofa—although the other party didn't respond at all.Kanako shrugged and went back to her room.

The mother brought a lot of things to sort out, and the newly bought clothes were not sorted out, and the little one couldn't continue to live in the drawer, so he had to move them all back to the original place.Afraid to go out and disturb them, she had no choice but to tidy up the things in the bedroom first.After about half an hour, thinking that the other party had probably finished talking, holding a lot of Keigo Atobe's things, she poked her head in and opened the door, and the two people were still sitting there as before.It's just that the expressions on each other's faces are much more serious.

Seeing her go out, the consistent gaze also made her a little startled, with a different sense of strangeness... It was also at this time that she realized that the other party was really a person who had been heard in the rumors before, and already made people feel unreachable .

At this moment, Kanako Hayakawa suddenly felt a sense of distance from being late.

The corners of her lips parted in an arc, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should advance or retreat, and stayed there for a long time without moving.Until Keigo Atobe finally couldn't help frowning and asked, "Ah, what are you doing there?"

Kanako pursed her lips, carried a lot of things to the living room and was about to put them down, and was about to say that she would come back later, but Yuuji Ninja's next sentence made her freeze in place——

Her body froze immediately, maintaining a bowed posture, the miscellaneous things in her hands had not been loosened, her eyes widened and she looked at him and him, they were silent for some reason at this moment, they looked away tacitly from each other , No one made a sound.

in fact--

In fact, Yushi Ninzu didn't say anything.

In fact, I just felt that... it came too suddenly.

He said that Atobe has stayed here for too long, and this place will be targeted soon, so——

He should also go back to where he should be
