Xiangyang-kun, come here

=========================

He is still hugging.

Xiangyang: "Okay——!"

He even hugged me around...! !

Turn around!The ground dazzled my eyes.

I'm going to vomit……

My head was dizzy for a moment, and I couldn't help pulling his hair, which was fluffy and soft.

Xiangyang finally got out of the joyful mood, he was pulled by my hair without mentioning it, he just suddenly calmed down, and carefully said: "...What's wrong with Xiaohui?"

I lay on his shoulders, turned into holding his head, and said weakly: "Put me down..."

"Oh!" Xiangyang put me down immediately, and my feet finally hit the ground firmly.

Seeing my pale face, he said apologetically, "I'm sorry... Is Xiaohui afraid of heights?"

I slowed down and retorted: "No, I'm not afraid. I'm just afraid of hanging in the air."

I didn't let go of my arms, I just slid down and put my arms around his shoulders.

By the way, did you just pull his hair...

I raised my hand to touch his hair, Xiangyang followed the trend and lowered his head, which made it easier for me.

He looked at me eagerly: "...Are you going back?"

I'm still rubbing his hair, originally wanting to comfort him where he might be sore, but rubbing is very addictive.

It's so soft, it feels super good, and it's as good as pulling a dog.

I said ruthlessly, "Yes, hurry up and go back to study, see you after you enter school."

"Well..." Xiangyang's cat eyes filled me, and some of the upturned eye ends became a little red in winter, he compromised, "Okay... that's right! It's so cold outside, and it's okay for Xiaohui to go back early good."

He found a very convincing reason, and he became happy.

His smiling face is still contagious, I moved my finger curiously, and touched the corner of his raised mouth.

Xiangyang stopped smiling immediately.

Me: "Why don't you smile?"

Xiangyang paused, he seemed to want to lick his lips, but with my fingertips pressing on his face, near the corners of his lips, he didn't dare to lick or lick.

"... Are you laughing?" He lowered his eyes, stared at it steadily, spoke softly, his lips didn't move much, as if he was afraid of disturbing my observation.

I nodded: "Yes."

He paused, blinked his eyes, and twitched his mouth to try.

Then, all the facial muscles under my fingertips moved, and the boy gave a huge smile, and even tilted his head slightly.

The cat-like eyes narrowed immediately, and the upturned tail became more obvious, more like a fox.

I touched his face: "Why did you laugh?"

I can't at all, at most lightly tick.

"Just..." He looked up diagonally and thought for a while, "If you're happy, you can laugh no matter what."

Me: "Maybe the muscles are different."

Xiangyang: "No, no matter how we think about it, we are all the same human beings."

I rubbed his face.

Xiangyang couldn't help laughing, the kind of hehehe, because I squeezed his face, his face piled up when he smiled, like dough.

On the way back, he was in a great mood and hummed a song in his throat.

When I arrived at my house, I waved my hand, and Xiangyang kept smiling brightly: "Goodbye, Xiaohui!"

I open the door and go back.

After a good night's sleep, the last month of review officially started.

***

In the last month, Xiangyang and I didn't see each other very much, and we spent every day writing questions in the study atmosphere.

The entrance exam was also on a snowy day.

In fact, my mood didn't fluctuate much, because I had already taken the hemp test.

After the exam, my mother and I quickly packed up our things and went out for a trip.

The only thing worth mentioning is that my mother handed me a gift at the departure airport and said with a smile: "Happy graduation."

I took it and took it apart.

——It turned out to be a mobile phone.

"Ah, ah, it seems that social software is indispensable for making friends in high school." Mom waved her hand, "Not to mention you have a boyfriend. By the way, is that Hinata from the same high school as you?"

I fiddled with the mobile phone with a face full of novelty, and when I heard this, I hummed.

My mother sighed: "...I really grew up. If you haven't broken up in high school, bring it back to me to see. Your mother is quite accurate in judging people."

Me: "Well."

I smiled slightly: "Thank you, Mom."

She showed a suffocated expression, and then rubbed my head: "...appearance is really a powerful weapon...!"

I:"……"

But unfortunately, because I received the gift at the airport, I left before exchanging contact information with Xiangyang.

Sitting on the plane, I was still thinking, it's okay, we'll meet again in Karasuno.

Xiangyang also knew that he could not meet until he was in high school, so he told me in advance of his training plan for the whole vacation, and even stumbled and said that he would definitely miss me.

I said with a wooden face, "I will miss you when I am tired from playing."

It's true, after all, when you play, you don't think about anything.

Xiangyang got stuck, and then smiled even brighter: "Really? So cute... no, so happy."

I:"…?"

He didn't come to see me off, of course, I have my mother, he hasn't seen it yet, it's obviously not a good time.

It's just that before I left for a long trip, Xiangyang ran under the window of my bedroom, raised his head and blushed, and said goodbye in a low voice.

I opened the window and waved to him.

Then he turned back on his bike again and left.

It seems that I got up early and ran this trip just to say goodbye quietly.

Once again, I regret not being able to exchange contact information, and maybe the whole vacation will be cut off like this.

Forget it.

I fell asleep on the plane, and the moment my mother and I stepped out of the airport to a hotel in Brazil, we knew—

was killed.The location and schedule of the play are all dissatisfied, it is still hot and dry.

despair.

In short, this trip was very unpleasant. My mother yelled and cursed every day, and finally I was too lazy to go out of the corpse hotel.

I'm so hot every day.

Brazil...it's so hot... I put on sunscreen countless times a day, and I didn't go out for the last few days, blowing the air conditioner in the hotel.

I slowly remembered that I should take photos to Xiangyang and ask my mother to take photos for me.

So we took a shot around the hotel and called it a day.

This is not the worst.

The worst thing is that we went back to China to play by ourselves elsewhere, and I needed to rush back to the school day, but my mother bought the wrong date.

…yes, bought the wrong date.

She turned into a decadent adult on the spot, sitting by the hotel bed with her head down, just missing a cigarette to create the atmosphere.

Mother Aino Miki murmured: "Maybe...God let us play for a while."

I watched TV with a wooden face: "Yeah."

So I didn't go there on the first day of school, and I reported to the school a few days after school started.

I:"………"

It doesn't matter, Xiangyang will definitely help me to see the class list. If I didn't come, he will definitely ask my new class teacher.

It doesn't matter if there is no contact information, um.

***

A dozen years ago--

Aino Miki's husband often travels on business, and the wife has been living alone.

It wasn't until she went to the hospital to find out that she couldn't conceive unexpectedly that her husband said it was okay.

But Miki could see his displeasure.

In fact, sometimes she really wanted to have a child, because she was too lonely, and when she returned home after work, there was no one there, and her husband gradually became a decoration, after all, she didn't need to spend his money.

It’s just that if there is no major problem, I don’t bother to get a divorce. The life of an adult is full of inertia and compromise. As soon as you get married, you get in a car. If there is no traffic problem, you don’t bother to step on the brakes and drive numbly according to inertia.

That feeling of emptiness occasionally strikes strongly.

After discussing with her husband, she decided to adopt a child in an orphanage.

He said that he had to ask for leave for a while, and Mei Shu went to the orphanage by herself first.

The original plan was to adopt the youngest child so that he could be familiar with him and not remember anyone, preferably what age the baby was.

The dean was very enthusiastic, indicating that many young children have been abandoned or their parents have died recently, so she can take a look.

Mei Shu looked at them one by one, and always felt that she was not born. Looking at the chubby faces of those children, she could only feel a little affection from adults.

Maybe her desire to raise a child is not so strong now, and that little sense of loneliness will not overwhelm her.

The dean saw that she was not interested, "Then Miss Aino can go to the backyard, there are many older children, in fact, those children are more lovable and lovable. Raising babies is actually a waste of energy, Miss Aino There are jobs, maybe they're the best option."

Miki responded.

There were more than a dozen children playing in the backyard. Some were in their teens and some were a few years old. They played together and were full of laughter.

Adopting older children not only requires the will of the adopter, but also the wishes of the children. It is a two-way choice.

Mei Shu just wanted to get a general understanding this time, as soon as she came, several children looked over curiously and expectantly.

It may also be because she looks gentle and gentle, which fits the child's impression of a good mother.

She tried to play with them, and some children were very good at acting, while others were extremely shy, and Miki smiled kindly for a long time.

It's just that there are still no children who want to live for a lifetime.

As the sun was setting, the children were called to the cafeteria, and Miki stayed where she was, until a little boy turned back halfway, raised his head and asked, "Ma'am, which one of us would you like to adopt?"

She was stunned.

She didn't lie, and took this issue seriously: "I'm sorry, I probably won't adopt you, it's not your problem, it's mine, and there will be better people to take care of you in the future."

The little boy was not sad when he heard the words, he nodded like a little adult, and ran away.

The dean took her into the office and chatted for a while. He wanted to ask about Aino's needs in detail.

It's a pity that even Miki herself didn't know what kind of child she wanted. She knew it at first, but after looking around, she became confused.

The dean sighed: "...well, thank you very much for playing with the children, they like you very much."

Miki smiled.

There was a sudden loud noise at the door.

The dean opened the door, and a couple and the person in charge seemed to be arguing about something.

"I'm sorry, you should go to other courtyards to have a look." The person in charge said.

The woman became anxious: "You...!"

The dean spoke to stop the quarrel.

He and the couple started talking, and the person in charge squatted down and hurriedly picked up the little child and prepared to leave, as if he didn't want the child to hear him.

Mei Shu looked down subconsciously, and the other party was very sensitive, so she raised her head.

Very cute appearance, absolutely superior, black hair, white and tender skin, but those eyes are too calm, the color of the seabed is as quiet as the seabed.

The person in charge coaxed: "Let's go, let's go play."

The child looked away and was led away.

Mei Shu didn't like to stay, but was forced to hear something before leaving.

The couple were planning to adopt her, and they tried to accompany her in the orphanage for a period of time, which was the investigation and experiment period, but regretted it.

That's all, they said to take the child to the playground, but they wanted to secretly take the child to the hospital, but were strictly prohibited by the accompanying person in charge.

They claimed she was handicapped.

At first, the dean explained in a good voice: "...each of our children has been checked in the hospital before being admitted to the hospital. I am afraid that some disease will delay the treatment period."

The husband of the couple said: "We have been with her for half a year, and she has never smiled, she has no expression, and she speaks strangely. We are just afraid that she may have facial nerve problems or mental illness."

The dean immediately lowered his face when he heard the words, and said sharply: "Xiaohui doesn't have any problems, please don't bring up such things again, I said before that the child is not a matter of long-term relationship and relationship depth, she just doesn't like to laugh, she thinks very It's naive."

"But it's been so long without a smile! It's hard for us to do without emotional feedback..."

"Then it can only be said that you are not suitable for her, and you can give up getting along, but taking her to the hospital for an examination without permission with this reason, you know it will cause great psychological harm to her!"

The couple looked at each other.

Because the child is really cute in appearance, and he is really hardworking and smart in arithmetic, and they can't let go of the outstanding points for the time being.

Mei Shu turned a corner and left.

Everyone else in the backyard went to the cafeteria, and the person in charge was telling stories in a soft voice with a book of fairy tales.

The girl sat next to him, looking down at the book of fairy tales.

The couple commented as a child who "looks pleasing, but behaves and speaks unpleasingly".

Mei Shu was tired from standing, so she sat not far from them, and the person in charge saw her stand up.

Mei Shu hurriedly waved her hands: "It's okay, don't worry about me."

The person in charge sat down again, tilted his head and smiled and said, "Xiaohui, where have we read?"

Miki looked at the black-haired child.

The girl's face is indeed not as vivid as that of ordinary children, and the person in charge is obviously an adult they have been with since entering the hospital, so they should be very familiar with it.

The girl named Xiaohui said: "The fourth line on the third page."

Miki was surprised.

Because most children will memorize the plot of the story, how can they pay attention to the number of pages.

The person in charge finds the place without any pause and looks used to it.

Mei Shu stayed for a while, then left to go to the dean's office, but the dean was not there.

She looked around, but couldn't find it, so she had to give up.

The sky was approaching darkness, the moon slowly climbed into the night, and when Mei Shu passed the corridor, she heard a child crying.

She walked lightly, turning a corner, a little boy was crying, and standing in front of him was Xiao Hui with black hair.

The two didn't find her, and Miki remembered that the boy was the one who asked her who she would adopt.

He sobbed: "...Is it because I'm not good enough? That aunt still didn't like me today. "

Miki's heart skipped a beat.

Feeling a little guilty and bitter in my heart.

That Xiaohui's voice was calm: "What are you talking about?"

Boy: "That's... even if my aunt came to play with us today, but I still haven't adopted me..."

"So what are you talking about?" Xiao Hui said with a wooden face. "Adoption should be done with each other first, and then collect information documents and investigate. No matter how you say it, it is impossible to successfully adopt you on the first day."

Mei Shu: "..." Is the point wrong?

The boy sobbed a few times: "Eh?...Then...does that mean I might have a chance."

Xiaohui was even more puzzled: "I have rejected you, how could I have a chance."

boy:"………"

Miki: "..."

Then what did you just explain? !

The boy burst into tears immediately, and Miki was about to come out, but hesitated.

After all, the crying child might be ashamed to see her.

After a long time, he was tired from crying and his voice became quieter.

Mei Shu looked around halfway, the boy was crying terribly, and the girl just stared at him with a blank expression, the scene was very dramatic.

"Stop crying?" Xiao Hui said.

The boy nodded, with a nasal voice: "Well..."

Miki watched as the black-haired girl stretched out her hand, and the boy held it lightly, the teardrops reflected in the moonlight, and the two little hands overlapped.

Xiaohui: "Do you know what happens to having good parents?"

Miki: "..."

...the end...

Boy: "What is it..."

Xiao Hui said with a serious look: "It turned into a bubble and flew away."

"...Hey!" He was taken aback, but quickly realized, "...The Little Mermaid?"

Xiaohui: "If she doesn't have parents, she's nothing, and naturally she won't have the leisure to go to sea. How can she have the time, ability and identity to find a witch. Who cares about her, go find a job by yourself."

Mei Shu stopped: "..."

Makes sense... no.

This is an extremely crooked theory, and there are many points that can be refuted, but the boy was really coaxed, and was immediately happy: "That's right... Xiaohui, it's a good thing you weren't adopted by those two couples."

two pairs? ...That's right, that child is so beautiful, there are only a few people who are interested in adopting her.

Especially when she is still young, she will die when she grows up.

Xiaohui politely rejected his behavior of drawing circles: "No, this is just for you. I will look for a job no matter what. Instead of looking for parents."

"Woo... Me too!"

"No, you are not."

"I'm!"

As they walked away, the two overlapping little hands were warm and innocent under the night.

Mei Shu was quiet for a while, the headmaster appeared out of nowhere, and said with a smile: "Actually, Xiao Hui gets along with every child in the orphanage like this."

"Only by getting along with her carefully can I know that she is cute except for the skin. It's a pity that many people don't know."

Mei Shu paused, "...Dean, I'll come back tomorrow."

The dean's kind face evoked a smile: "Because she has experienced the special circumstances of the two couples, the investigation of her adoption will be more difficult."

"…It's ok."

Then she would come here every week until she and Xiaohui became familiar with each other, until she led her home.

Until conflicts broke out with her husband and divorced, Mei Shu cried on the way home alone, but tried hard to hold back her tears when she got home. The child sat on the dining table with a calm expression: "Should I follow you? Or him?"

"I..." The man didn't want Xiaohui.

She was afraid that Xiao Hui would see her ex-husband's refusal, so she didn't say much, but Xiao Hui looked at her after eating and said, "Am I so lucky?"

Miki's tears finally burst.

Until she held the first parent-teacher meeting, until Xiaohui called her mother for the first time on a rainy day.

Until Xiaohui won the running competition award for the first time, she said on the winning platform that she was most grateful to my mother Miki Aino.

Until she was fired, the pressure increased sharply at night, and she couldn't sleep all night. Xiaohui hid in her bed and looked at her, her eyes that looked like the bottom of the sea were deep and quiet.

The child said: "You let me go back, and you come to me when I grow up. You can get Ainoe who grows up and doesn't need you to raise. I will raise you."

Miki just touched her head with tears in her eyes, she didn't pretend to be able to bear it like other adults, she knew that Xiaohui didn't need her disguise.

"...You wait for me to work harder."

Xiaohui nodded: "Okay."

Until she found a job again, until she changed her residence because of a job change.

She took Xiaohui's hand and pulled the suitcase to the strange small city.

Miki: "New school, are you afraid?"

She asked back: "Are you afraid of the new working environment?"

"A little bit." Miki gestured.

Xiao Emu said with a straight face, "I'm not afraid at all."

"Oh, I lost."

It wasn't until Xiaohui's first moment that she heard from the teacher that Xiaohui made her first good friend - someone else's one-sided.

I heard that Momoe Sakai is in the same track and field department as her.

The girl had short hair reaching her ears and was extremely proud, but she had a crush on a boy. One day, she finally got up the courage to write a love letter, and said that she would wait for his reply during the fun sports meeting.

But that boy openly read her love letter, which drew ridicule.

Interesting sports meeting, there is a project that has only been held once in the past. Several students prepare their own gifts, and those who want their gifts go for a long-distance run.

Run at least 3000 meters and run at most [-] meters.

Finally, I ran to the other party, and the other party could give him a gift or not, but as long as he ran to 3000 meters, he had to give it.

Sakai participated, and the girl who competed with Xiaoe for the first place in the track and field club signed up for the party that gave the gift.

She signed up before the boy read the love letter, and sat outside the runway holding the gift she was going to give to the boy, feeling ashamed and crying all the time.

The boy went running for another girl.

This kind of competition is full of male and female gossip, the audience is watching Sakai, and the gossip spreads quickly.

Until Ainoe stood in front of her and asked, "What gift?"

Sakai has always been full of desire to win against her opponent, and the relationship is not very good. He raised his head, his face covered with tears: "It's none of your business!"

Ainoe frowned suspiciously: "Why are you crying? It's too hot?"

Sakai knew her character, and still said angrily: "It's none of your business!"

"So what gift did you prepare?"

"..." Repeater, you!

Sakai: "Strawberry cake! It's alright! I made it myself!"

As she spoke, she began to cry again.

Aino Hui said with a blank expression when he heard the words: "Finally, a valuable gift appeared in the competition."

Sakai later found out that this person asked all the people who prepared the presents.

Game start.

Most of the participants are boys, but very few boys from the track and field club.

This kind of competition is full of ambiguity. Naturally, there is no need to run 3000 meters.

The competition gifts need to be completed after the competition, ranked according to the number of meters run, and ask for the gifts you want in turn. If the distance is less than 3000 meters, the opponent can refuse to give it.

As for the situation where two 3000 meters want the same gift... I never thought about it, come on, that's 3000 meters!

That day, a cute-looking black-haired girl ran 3000 meters with no expression on her face. The people watching were stunned, and the host called wildly.

The only person in the whole school who ran 3000 meters for a gift!

After she finished running, she went in front of Momoe Sakai, the gossip center during this time!

Ainoe ignored Sakai's surprised eyes and nodded, "Thank you."

Take the cake and leave.

Sakai: "..."

Nima's.She even forgot to cry.

Ainoe turned her head and looked at her strangely: "By the way, why don't you go for a run, but become the one who brings the gift? Don't you like running?"

Sakai: "...I want you to take care of it."

Aino Hui had no expression on his face: "Oh. But since you can outrun me, you can outrun other people too, why don't you run. That man can run even 50 meters with great effort."

The boy is still running 800 meters, so tired that he is walking.

Sakai stared at Ainoe with wide eyes.

This guy... knows everything!

After Ainoe finished speaking, she carried the cake and went to the cafeteria.

Sakai watched her leave and clenched his fists.

Immediately, the girl with ear-length short hair stood on the runway, the battlefield she was most familiar with.

Under everyone's gaze, under the gaze of all those who knew about her love letter incident and watched the joke, she started running.

Round and round, he quickly overtook the boy. The boy seemed to lose his face and ran away, but he still couldn't run past her.

The boy only ran 800 meters before reaching another girl.

And Sakai ran 3000 meters - of course, if Aino can run, so can she.

She came to the girl after running, and said under the boy's ugly expression: "Sorry, the gift is mine. If you want it, you can exchange it with my love letter."

The boy had no choice but to get the crumpled love letter that had been circulated several times from others: "Sakai..."

Sakai, who was sweating from running, tore up the love letter viciously under the surprised eyes of everyone, and threw it away.

The gossip wind reversed immediately.

Sakai's attitude towards Ainoe also reversed.

Sakai: I thought he was a person with facial paralysis and looked down on others, so he was just dumbfounded for a long time...

As for Ainoe, after taking a bite of the cake in the cafeteria, she stopped her fork expressionlessly.

It's so unpalatable...

"That...that..."

A boy sat across from her, blushing with embarrassment, with orange hair as fluffy as a hedgehog.

"I'm Shoyo Hinata from Class C...I watched Aino-san's competition! It's amazing!"

"Thank you. I'm Ainoe."

Eat something later to suppress the taste.

Ainoe stood up, "Goodbye..."

Who is here... I don't remember the name.

"Yeah, goodbye, Aino-san!"

Miki knew so clearly that apart from the teacher's explanation, Ainoe was asked by her, so she told it by herself.

Miki couldn't be happier.

look!Xiaohui is so good!

Until Xiaohui began to receive love letters from some people, Miki said seriously: "Xiaohui, the older you get, the more people value your appearance. You are very cute. But you need to find someone who thinks you are cute on the inside, and that your expressionless face is also very cute." Lovely person, if you say something strange to others, he will find it too cute. Do you know?"

"Probably know."

Until Xiaohui said one morning that she liked someone, and they started dating the next day.

Until Mei Shu quietly went to school to take a look at the other party - he seemed to be a kind-hearted and very cheerful boy.

Until Xiaohui graduated from junior high school, I took a photo with her at the gate of the junior high school.

Maybe until she dies of old age and Xiaohui grows up, Miki won't regret it like those two couples.

The two couples were also wrong.

Xiaohui is obviously so pleasing and cute.

Anyone who finds Xiaohui will like her, just like Miki, just like Sakai.

Just like Xiangyang.

Some people want to raise her to grow up, some people want to be awkward and be friends.

Some people want to hold her firmly, soaking in the bottom of the sea every day.

— to hug her, kiss her, pamper her every second.
