[Volleyball] Life Goes On

Look……"

June is approaching, and the national competition qualifiers are coming soon.

In order to have a good rest after training, Nishitani accepted Saki's proposal, setting aside part of his lunch break from time to time, and asked her to help him with his homework for the day.

Nishitani may not feel that something is wrong, but Saki made this suggestion with an unknown and careful thought. After all, except for line chats and weekend dinner appointments, they have almost no contact opportunities.

While looking down at the notebook in her hand, Saji stretched out her hand to grab it in the direction of Xigu, and after several misses, she simply reached out and hooked the boy's elbow to prevent herself from falling because she didn't pay attention to the road.

The girl's unscrupulous behavior made the boy pretend to look ahead in a restless state, but amidst her soft breathing, he couldn't help rolling his eyes and sneaking a few glances at her.After going back and forth, after confirming that Saji was fully engaged in the examination exercises, Xigu was relieved.

"Dongye, the library is here." Xigu suddenly leaned closer to Saki's ear, and the faint fragrance from the girl's body was like soft velvet, gently brushing against his heart.

"Okay..." Saki froze slightly imperceptibly, then let go of her hands and walked into the library, and sat down in a corner.

The library is very quiet during the lunch break, and few people come during this time.

Saki waited for Xigu to sit next to her, took out the book and pencil, and began to correct the mistakes in the exercise book, while finding out the page numbers of the knowledge points in the textbook, and explaining each question to Xigu.

Saki's lectures often use metaphors, using simple and clear things to compare, and Nishitani listens very happily because of this, and from time to time he suddenly "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

In the final stage of the lunch break, Nishitani would do the day's homework, and Saki would take a magazine to read next to him, so that he could go over to explain the teenager when he was confused.It's not that she doesn't work hard, it's just that Saji usually spends it relaxing at this time.

Saki flipped through the column introduction of "Catch him with a new hairstyle this summer" in the magazine. While looking at the hairstyle introduced in it, she touched the ends of her hair. She tilted her head in confusion, and stretched her hands to lie on the table. went up.

I don't know what kind of hairstyle Nishitani likes.

The girl thought so, and then turned a few pages, which was the page of clothing matching.

What kind of dressing style does Nishitani like?

What kind of girl does he like...

After realizing her feelings for the boy, Saki found that she was less and less like her calm self.Every time she faces Xigu, she needs to pretend to be calm and carefully hide her feelings, for fear that she will be discovered by the other party before she makes up her mind.

Obviously so cautious, but can't help but want to get close to each other.

Saki had experienced this feeling before, but it was too far away and deliberately ignored by her, so it was hard to recall.Now that I am in it again, I can't help but feel strange and uneasy.

She put down the magazine, raised her eyes, and looked at the young man's concentration on his homework from bottom to top. She suddenly felt shy about the little secret in her heart, and retracted her hand embarrassingly, and buried her feverish face in her arms.

Xigu noticed the girl's series of movements, and stopped the movements in his hands. After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Saki coughed lightly, and slightly exposed her face, "Nothing..."

"Are you sleepy? I'm sorry I called you out during the lunch break..." Xigu frowned guiltily, "Why don't you go back and rest?"

"It's really all right!" Saki naturally wanted to stay with Xigu for a while longer, she was anxious, she raised her head hastily, and found an excuse to say, "Isn't my hair long? I'm worrying about what hairstyle to change... "

"I think it's fine now..." Xi Gu said while bowing his head, while drawing the key words in the title with a ballpoint pen, "But long hair will be a bit hot, right? How about tie it up?"

She meant to cut it off, but Xigu revealed that she wanted her to grow it longer

"Xigu...do you like long hair?" Saki blinked and looked at Xigu seriously.Deliberately lowered his voice and said ambiguous words, "Then I won't cut it off..."

"Eh? Is it really ok?" Xi Gu stopped writing, "I'm just offering a suggestion. If Dongye doesn't like to grow long, you can do it according to your own preference..."

"I like it, I like it..." Saki smiled perfunctorily, "Do you want to eat barbecue after club activities on Friday? My friend recommended me a super delicious restaurant——"

Because of the national competition, the volume of training in the volleyball club has increased a lot, and it almost ends at night every day, so the weekend dinner appointments between the two were forced to be put on hold several times.

The time we spent together was already extremely short, but when the pressure was tight, Saki became a little impatient.

"Oh, I also want to eat barbecue with Dongye!" Hearing that he was invited, Xigu showed a bright smile, then suddenly paused, and his gleaming eyes dimmed.He apologized to Saki with a regretful and helpless expression, "Sorry, sorry, the recent training..."

Saki shrank her fingers, but the smile in the corner of her eyes didn't disappear, "Yes, the national competition is about to start, it's really hard..."

"No! Everything is for victory!" When it comes to volleyball, Xigu showed a different excitement from the past, "I want to train, train, and try my best to save all the balls that are about to fall, so that everyone can rush to the front line without any worries. ah……"

The loss after being rejected is self-evident, but seeing the other party's burst of joy because of volleyball, Saki sighed instead and showed a sincere smile.

There is no need to be sad.

Isn't she like Xi Guxi like this?

He will not give her ambiguous answers, and always face her frankly and sincerely.

So sincere that even if she said "I like you", she would tell her the result on the spot.The frankness made Saki feel a little scared about the confession—perhaps because of being in it, Saki, who was originally confident and strong, rarely showed a trace of timidity.

She originally thought that Xigu had a good impression of her, but now she wondered if it was because she felt good about herself.

In order to hide her emotions, Saki covered her lips with her fingertips, squinted her eyes and teased, "Nishiya is really handsome when he talks about volleyball, and he is also handsome when he plays volleyball... Will there be a junior shouting' Senior! Senior is so handsome!' or something like that?"

She deliberately put down a soft tone, and imitated the voices of fans cheering and said a few words.

Xigu immediately blushed and rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Where is it... there are cute juniors who call me senior..."

You look very happy...

Saji blinked her eyes, tilted her head and shouted again, "Senior is so handsome~"

"Don't be like this in the same grade!" Nishitani lowered his head and started to do his homework again, but his reddish cheeks and upturned corners of his mouth easily let Saki see through the joy of the boy.

The innocence of the boy made Saki suddenly doubt her own self-doubt, whether it was a fleeting illusion or not.

Saki paused for a moment, and Xigu also took advantage of the opportunity to continue to write homework. The atmosphere was quiet for a while, and then became active in Saki's words, "But ah, there is no chance to continue food hunting with Xigu recently, and this situation will last until Is the national competition over... I will be a little lonely..."

"Huh?" Xi Gu stopped writing again, his big cat eyes showed a bit of surprise.He looked up and saw Saki propping her chin, looking at him with a half-smile, and subconsciously wanted to apologize, "Sorry..."

"It's okay." Saki deliberately slowed down her speech, and said like a baby, "It's okay, relatively, after the national competition is over, all the dates owed during this period must be made up. Treat this as a national competition What about the reward for victory? But the wallet will bleed profusely."

Saki doesn't have to go to eat every week, nor does she have no one to accompany, she just wants to use this excuse to occupy Xigu's time after the competition.

Xi Gu was startled, then opened those beautiful cat eyes wide, "Of course—!"

The subtle and sweet taste of love makes Saki deeply trapped in it and unable to extricate herself.

The author has something to say: The author started the final homework of the liver, and he will be missing until July...

8、Unreconciled

In June, Saki missed the West Valley game because she attended a relative's wedding.

When she returned home exhausted, she plugged in the charger for her dead mobile phone and turned on the line, but what she received was a short sentence.

"Sorry, I lost"

"Xaji... go and put some hot water, I'm going to be exhausted, I really want to take a shower..." Saji's sister, Sazhi, threw herself on the sofa in a sloppy manner, beating her waist while weakly Call his sister.

"Okay, Grandma Saori~" Saji joked with a smile, unplugged the phone and its charger, stood up with the hem of the black dress, and walked towards the stairs.

The mother came out of the kitchen and said helplessly, "Sazhi, don't keep ordering my sister around."

"It's okay, it's rare for my sister to come back."

Saki trotted upstairs, first went back to the room to charge the phone, then went to the bathroom to put hot water, and when the task was completed and returned to the room, the battery of the phone was enough to make a call.

"Do you want to make a call..."

Saki sat down on the round rug, folded her legs and put them on one side.She held the phone anxiously, not knowing what to do.

When she agreed on a date after the game, in order to encourage Xi Gu, she said something like "take a big meal as a reward for winning", which was like shooting herself in the foot.What kind of expression is she going to use now to invite a person who is frustrated at the summit to have a "relaxed and happy date" with herself.

Shrewd and worrying, Saji couldn't smile and say "go out together" when the other party was down.
