[SD] Garden Still Water Dyeing Incense
Chapter 4, the blue team's serve.The score is now 50 to 54, with the white team leading.
"..."
As expected, he was not suitable for this tune, Rukawa closed his eyes. "Why do I have to listen to you every time. I want to hug you to sleep." No more nonsense, Rukawa pulled Xizi over to lie on him, with a smile on his lips.
The sudden change of perspective made Xizi blush.Does Rukawa think she is a quilt... The developed chest rises and falls with Rukawa's breathing, Xiko can't help but feel a little awkward. "Put me down."
"No." Rukawa put one hand around Xizi's waist easily, with a look of enjoyment.
"...Don't you feel pressured?"
"How much do you weigh?"
...
After falling asleep for another hour inexplicably, the two finally came to the basketball court.
Many times, Xizi felt that the boy standing next to her should be a Gemini.At home, he pretends to be cute and pitiful, but outside he has a handsome iceberg face.
Could it be a split personality?
Just thinking about it, a ball was thrown over. "Watch the ball."
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and Xizi didn't let the ball hit his face. "Bad guy, you're such a stinky fart when you touch a basketball. Watch me shoot a ball~!"
I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run.Xizi patted the basketball in her hand decently (thinking) and turned it between her hands to find the feel, but she didn't seem to find much, so she bent down and patted again.After almost 2 minutes of foreplay, the ball still hadn't been thrown, and Rukawa couldn't help but drop a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Can you do it?"
"It's just you, isn't it! Don't talk."
Rukawa: "..."
After two more pats, Xizi finally made a move.After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, the ball passed the net smoothly and went low.
"...Can I talk now?"
"Just laugh, hold back like that...", ran to pick up the ball, Xizi continued to shoot, "I'll try a few more balls~"
Maybe it's because of watching too much, but Xizi still has some sense of the ball undeniably. After making five mistakes, she scored three glorious goals in a row. Although, those three goals were all standing less than two meters away from the net. voted for position...
People are very interesting animals, and their judgments on the same thing are often very different due to different preferences for the person involved.For example, if the person standing next to him holding the ball and giggling was Sakuragi, Rukawa would throw a cold look at him unceremoniously and add an idiot or a big idiot.However, because the person involved is Xiko, all the original "ridiculous" meanings in Rukawa's eyes were replaced by "cute" one by one.
"So happy." After taking the ball, Rukawa touched Xiko's face with the back of his hand.
"Well, teach me how to shoot with one hand, I'm already proficient with both hands~!"
...skilled? ...
Ignoring the words of a certain girl for now, Rukawa casually twirled the ball in his hand. "Look at it first."
"Hold the ball on the shoulder with the right hand, separate the fingers naturally, the forearm is close to the vertical to the ground, don't use too much force with the left hand, hold the left side of the ball. Then look at the basket, like this, and throw the ball."
Following Rukawa's beautiful jump, the basketball in his hand slid out along the established track, and fell into the net with a plop.
Wow~ Why does it feel like he can throw it so easily, like an adult playing with a small ball.
"Can you do a slower motion again? I want to watch it carefully again."
Rukawa did as he did, while Xiko kept her eyes open and tried her best to find the point.Plop, the ball went in again, Xizi quickly reached out to try.
however--
"Rukawa, I can't use my arms like this."
"Spread your fingers a little more, relax your arms, and draw your elbows in."
"jumping up like out of touch..."
"You can feel it after jumping a few times..."
"..."
Outside the fence on one side, Haruko stared at the field with her eyes wide open.
At this time, Rukawa was patiently correcting Xiko's throwing posture, and the two arms stretched out from behind seemed to be hugging gently, protecting the baby in his arms.
Rukawa can do this.
Next to him, Sakuragi, who was pushing a pink electric car, was also shocked.Is that doting man with a smile on his mouth in the distance really the Rukawa Feng he knew?Suddenly thinking of Rukawa Kaede's reluctance and slippery hands when he taught him how to play, Sakuragi pouted.
"Sakuragi, let's go over there to see if there is any free time?"
"En." Rarely did not have the thought of arguing, Sakuragi responded and beckoned Haruko to get into the car.
However, when seeing Haruko's face, Sakuragi's heart twitched hard. "What's wrong with you, Haruko? Don't tell me...do you still like Rukawa..."
"No." Haruko waved her hand and quickly withdrew her tears. "I just... suddenly thought of my former self. Once, I also fantasized about playing with Rukawa like this... I fantasized countless times."
"Haruko..."
"It's just a sudden thought, it's nothing. Let's go over there~" Haruko said and had already sat down behind Sakuragi, the host Sakuragi. "I just want to tell Sakuragi everything, don't be angry."
Haruko...
"I will definitely become better and become the man Haruko is willing to entrust her whole life to!"
"...Let's go Sakuragi, screaming so loudly..."
...
Rukawa seemed to hear a familiar voice, and looked up to the outside of the fence.The seats where the two of Sakuragi had been standing were now only the rustling sound of leaves swaying in the wind, but no one was there.However, just when Rukawa was about to look away, a pair of dark blue eyes bumped into him unexpectedly from another direction outside the court.
☆、[-]、Reform of Summer Split
The wind blew the boy's hair. The owner of the blue eyes stared at Rukawa quietly for two seconds, then turned and left, leaving two words floating in the air.
It seems to be saying: basketball.
...
After staring at the boy's back for a while, Rukawa continued to correct Xiko.
"Elbow, go further in."
"Oh." Oh, no. "...Whose elbow are you talking about!"
"Well, this posture is correct, cast again."
"..." □□ naked ignore.
After half an hour of Rukawa's hands-on teaching, Xizi finally ended the class with an unexpected three-pointer.In order to experience her boyfriend's basketball prowess for herself, Xizi signaled Rukawa to attack with the ball, while she defended herself.
Although the real thought in my heart is: I still need to attack you?Just one ball and it's over.However, in order to let his girlfriend have a good time, Rukawa agreed.
Looking at Xizi's defense, Rukawa couldn't help but have the illusion that he was playing eagle and chicken, and that he was the old hen.Why not an eagle?Because, have you ever seen an eagle that keeps backing away? !
Rukawa secretly supported his forehead.
...
In the third week of school, the teachers of each class announced the news of the upcoming school spring sports meeting in the class meeting.For these recreational activities that are beneficial to the body and mind after study, the students have always been very vocal, and they have been whispering almost continuously since the teacher issued the notice.
As the sports committee of the class, Rukawa is undoubtedly fully responsible for this matter.Although even if he didn't do it himself, everything would be completed as well as last year, but in order to further establish the image of a responsible and good man in Xizi's heart, Rukawa went to the sports team to collect materials for the first time, which made Xi The students were all amazed.
Sakuragi, who is also a member of the sports committee, also came to the sports group. Looking at Rukawa, who was expressionlessly queuing up to get the materials, Sakuragi couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw him outside the fence yesterday.
"What a fickle fox."
...
In the gymnasium after school, Kiyota actually ran over.Because every time I come here, I follow A Mu, this time he came alone, which made everyone in Xiangbei feel very fresh.
"Why are you here? The team doesn't need training?" Miyagi glanced at Kiyota and walked over.
"Let's come and see an old friend~ It's my first time to start school. Amu and Takasago are gone, and only Ashin is my closest friend in the team. It's so lonely." Qingtian sat cross-legged on the ground and began to complain.
Suddenly, Qingtian glanced and saw a huge monster.
"Wow! Your team has another gorilla?!"
"Respect, okay? His name is Saburo Taniguchi, and he is a new student."
Hearing Ayako's correction, Kiyota blushed. "San... Saburo?"
Dare the name be a little more earthy.However, it can be regarded as Mitsui's successor, "Your team is really destined to be Sanjing. Maybe you will also get third in the preliminaries~"
"Bang~!"
A basketball was thrown towards Qing Tian's face, "Shut your stinky mouth, wild monkey. Are you here to provoke?"
"You dare to hit me?! You bloody red-haired monkey. You haven't grown up at all~!" After straightening his hairband again, Kiyota straightened his face, "I was actually sent by the team to tell you about the friendly match .”
"Friendly match?"
Rukawa in the distance also raised his ears slightly.There's a game to play.
"We've known each other for so long, so we're not so polite. We just want to find out about each other. And did your coach tell you about the latest game rules after this year's reform?"
"up to date?"
"reform?"
"competition rules?"
Everyone in Xiangbei asked questions one by one.
"Are you repeaters..." Kiyota wiped his nose and stood up. "It was only yesterday that I overheard Coach Gao and the others discussing."
"It is said that the reform of the competition system was inspired by the new rules of the winter selection competition. In the winter selection competition, many outstanding players who could not show their faces in the national competition due to team reasons shined in that competition. Like Fukasawa Such prestigious sports schools have also recruited many players who have never paid attention to them before. Therefore, in order to allow more players to have the opportunity to participate, starting from this year, each county will have three places in the annual summer competition, and the third place The team can be freely assembled from the remaining teams that have not entered the top two."
Sakuragi was taken aback when he heard that. "According to what you said, as long as you play well, you can enter the national competition? But Dad hasn't told us yet, is your news reliable!"
"It shouldn't be wrong~ But whether it is or not, it has nothing to do with us in Hainan. Our Hainan team won the second place in last year's national competition. Although... Amu is gone...but we... .But I...but...ahhh, I miss Amu so much! I really miss the days when I follow him every day, I feel so safe and happy every day!"
"..."
The more people in Xiangbei heard something wrong, they couldn't help but look at Qingtian in unison. "Could it be...you treat Amu..."
00.
Kiyota was startled suddenly, his face flushed red.
"What are you talking about! I only have...pure admiration and trust plus admiration for Amu! You unscrupulous guys."
"Oh, you're blushing! You're actually shy, wild monkey."
"Shame on your sister!"
"Otherwise why are you blushing~?"
"Speaking of you and Rukawa, don't you blush!"
"What tongue are you chewing! Don't bring me together with a dead fox!"
"That's right, I forgot to consider Rukawa Feng's feelings!"
"Are you looking for a fight!"
"come on!"
...
"Let them play, let's continue training."
Miyagi threw the ball to Rukawa, signaling to ignore the two people pointing at each other idiotically.
Rukawa sighed and drifted away, "Two big idiots who have no cure."
...
☆、[-]、Handsome elementary school boy
?Tuesday lunch break, in the water room, Xizi and Zuo E were queuing up to fetch water, while a few girls from other classes were discussing excitedly.Judging by his expression, he should be talking about something related to the opposite sex~!
Seeing Xizi's curiosity, Zuoe lightly touched Xizi behind her with her shoulder, "Sakura Court, it's already the second semester, and your ability to collect gossip has not improved! They are saying that you just came here today One of my schoolboys."
Zuo E is really a know-it-all~! ~(≧▽≦)/~
"Primary school brother?"
"Yeah, I just came here today. I watched it right after my math class. It's almost as rumored~ It's worth a look!"
What? It's "worth a look", as if it's like Jianbao, Xizi couldn't help laughing.
"Is there anything special about the elementary school brother?"
"Hey, he's just handsome~! And I heard that apart from myopia, he doesn't seem to have any shortcomings, at least for the time being!" Zuoe bent down to take the water, "And there are rumors that he seems to know Yingmu Huadao~ But no I know if you can believe it, gossip. Are you going to check it out, Rukawa is not here anyway~"
"Pfft. So what if I'm here... It's like I'm going to do something to apologize to him. I'm going back~ There must be a lot of people watching now, let's go and see it at another time~"
On the one hand, the door of Class [-] has been surrounded by more and more girls who are attracted by their reputation, and the person who is surrounded is casually flipping through the extra-curricular books in his hand, with his left hand resting on his chin casually, quite leisurely and calm .
This person is either used to being watched by the crowd, or is extremely boring.
Passing through the crowd, Haruko saw the boy's face clearly.It's really pretty~!But that's not the point of her visit.
Gathering up the courage to walk over, Haruko looked at the boy, "Hi, hello. I'm Haruko Akagi from Class [-], Grade [-]. Excuse me, do you like playing basketball?"
The boy's expressionless face changed slightly when he heard the word "basketball", but because of the bangs on his forehead and the exaggerated glasses, it was hard for outsiders to see it.
"I don't like it." There was a lazy tone, and no emotion could be heard.
"...But your figure is very suitable..."
"I said I didn't like it."
"Forehead.."
Haruko, who was rarely rejected, was a little embarrassed, so she smiled and apologized and left.
"I told you not to be so impulsive. You see, all the girls in the school must know that you were rejected." Matsui, who was wearing a double ponytail, patted Haruko on the shoulder reassuringly.
"But...if he can enter the basketball club, he might become Shonhoku's savior just like Sakuragi did last year!"
"But I thought he would agree. At least he didn't refuse so coldly. After all, it was a pretty girl who asked him. Sure enough, you can't judge by appearance. Fortunately, he still looks like a good student."
"Well...but I still don't want to give up! If my brother is here, he will definitely support me. I will ask him again when I find time! Definitely!"
Haruko clenched her fists and swore.
"Your personality that is not afraid of death really hasn't changed at all. Then go for it! We can only wish you good luck."
...
Gossip always spreads quickly, especially this kind of gossip between boys and girls.When school was over that night, Sakuragi, who was lying on the table, received a small note from Takamiya.It read: Rumor: Haruko went to the first grade at noon to confess her love to the handsome boy, but was rejected. (though I don't believe it)
Naturally, Sakuragi didn't believe it, but she still felt a little uncomfortable unconsciously, crumpling it into a paper ball and throwing it aside.
He didn't believe any bullshit rumors.
However, when Haruko appeared at the door of the classroom with an apologetic expression, Sakuragi's heart sank.Could it be...
"Sorry Sakuragi, that rumor..."
"I don't want to listen." Sakuragi squatted down, covering his ears, and closed his eyes tightly.
"Sakuragi, you are promising, at least wait for Haruko to finish speaking." Yohei who had packed his schoolbag came over and patted Sakuragi on the back.
Guessing that Sakuragi had taken the message seriously, Haruko quickly reached out to pull Sakuragi. "Sakuragi, you are really a big idiot, I mean the rumors are not true! I didn't confess my love!"
The ears suddenly stretched and grew bigger happily, and Sakuragi suddenly stood up with her hands on her hips, laughing exaggeratedly. "Ahaha~ I'll just say it, Haruko can't! What kind of nerves are just chewing their tongues."
"Stupid Sakuragi." Haruko smiled at Sakuragi, and put her hand on her chin, "But it's really difficult, if only he agreed."
promise?What promise?Promise what?Sakuragi narrowed her eyes again.
"It's like this. I did go to the first grade at noon to find an elementary school boy. But the reason I looked for him was because I wanted him to join the basketball club. But he said he didn't like it."
It turned out to be like this.Isn't that the same as Haruko looked for herself a year ago.Cut, brat, I really don't know how to seize the opportunity.
"Do you want others to seize the opportunity to grab your girlfriend?" Seeing Sakuragi's thoughts, Yohei joked with a smile.
"I'm going first, see you tomorrow~"
"bye~/See you tomorrow~"
Almost everyone in the classroom left, Sakuragi also started to pack her schoolbag, "Is that kid as good as me!?"
"Well..." Haruko thought for a while. "Not as tall as you, but he has a good figure, strong muscles, and looks very athletic. It's just...his eyes seem to be short-sighted."
"Tch, I guess this kid is pretending to be a bad fart on purpose. I'll meet him tomorrow, and I'll leave it to me to let him join the club~! I want to see if he has the qualifications~ as the future captain of Xiangbei , I have to take this responsibility."
...Sakuragi seems to be pulling away again.
"By the way, Sakuragi, I just found out today that you bought your electric car with the money you earned from working during spring break. I'm so touched, thank you Sakuragi!"
Which big mouth leaked the secret, didn't they say it was good to keep it secret!
"Hey, it's nothing. As a man, you should be responsible. The gorilla is gone, so I must take better care of you. Let's go~ Go push our little fan~"
"Sakuragi..." Haruko looked at Sakuragi holding her hand with a moved face. "Actually, I can go back by myself. It's too hard for you to send me back every night and come back to practice."
Hearing what Haruko said, Sakuragi quickly shook her head. "No, no, no, how could it be! For Haruko, I don't feel hard work at all~! I don't know what hard work is~. Go push fans, we Haruko are going home~" Saying this, Sakuragi pulled Follow Haruko to the garage.Although Sakuragi's nerves may be a little stretched, and his temper is also a little grumpy.But as a boyfriend, he is really gentle and gentle.
On the other hand, because there was no food at home, Xizi did not go to practice with Rukawa tonight but went to the supermarket alone.
The human world can be said to be big or small, the key lies in the people you know and the things you have experienced.As soon as he pushed the cart, Xizi saw a familiar figure.But... why is he wearing Xiangbei's school uniform?
Just as he was thinking, the man turned around and saw Xizi.After two seconds of silence, the boy's eyebrows were slightly raised, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he walked towards Xizi with a natural expression.
"Such a coincidence."
Casually pushing with one hand to stand next to Xizi, Shota looked at Xizi who seemed to be in a daze.
"What's the matter, haven't you seen it?"
"Uh, no." Xizi glanced at Shota's school uniform again, "Are you... a student of our school?"
"Huh? En." Shota continued to add after straightening his neckline a little. "I just transferred here today, senior sister please give me some advice."
Uh... so he is younger than me.ah!Could it be that handsome young boy that Zuo E mentioned was just transferred here... Looking at Shota's beautiful dark blue eyes, Xiko thought of his funny glasses.
"By the way, last time you left your glasses in the taxi, I'll give them to you tomorrow? Which class are you in?"
Hearing Xizi mention the glasses, Shota subconsciously reached for the backpack with his left hand.About to take out something, Xiangta's hand stopped suddenly.Hmm... Maybe that would be more interesting.
"The back row of the tenth class a year." Naturally, he took his hand back, and Xiangta pushed the cart with both hands. "Your boyfriend didn't come with you?"
"En?" Xizi blushed suddenly, how did he know that he had a boyfriend... "He wants to practice basketball."
Hearing Xiangta hum in a low voice, Xizi looked at Xiangta carefully again.
"Well, you should also play basketball, right?"
Xiangtai was slightly taken aback, and nodded. "A little bit. What do you want to buy?"
Um, after being reminded by Shota, Xizi realized that the two of them were pushing two shopping carts at the entrance of the supermarket.
"Um, buy something to eat. Have you finished shopping?"
"Not yet, I just came too."
"Oh, let's..." "Let's talk while buying."
Er, Xizi pursed her lips, she wanted to say, "Then let's split up".Seeing Xiangta's body that had already moved one step ahead, Xizi pursed her lips to keep up.
After half an hour of quick shopping, both of them came out with full shopping bags.It turned out that Shota's house was only one stop away from Xiko's house. The reason why Shota knew that Xiko had a boyfriend was because on that rainy day, he happened to see Rukawa who came to pick him up through the car window.We were about to say goodbye to Shota at the station, when the intermittent meowing came from the grass on one side, which sounded very faint.Curiously walking over to push aside the vegetation, Xizi saw two newborn kittens curled up under the belly of a big cat, meowing.
Probably a stray cat.Xizi carefully poked the big cat's belly with her hand, but the big cat didn't move, but the kitten under the belly barked louder.Is... dead?Xizi touched it with her hand again.
"The female cat is dead." Xiangta also squatted down.
Gently pushing the mother cat away, Shota stretched out his hand to run along the soft fur of the kitten. "Since you can't afford the consequences, why should it happen?"
kindness..?What's up with him.Why do you think he is alluding to something?
Seemingly realizing that he said something that shouldn't be said, Shota looked at Xizi. "Let's raise one for each person, how about it?"
"Okay. But let's bury the mother cat first."
"kindness."
Putting the shopping bag aside, Xizi went to a nearby convenience store to buy a small shovel. In about 10 minutes, the mother cat was buried in a hidden corner, and she should be able to rest in peace.Xiangta wanted to be buried with him, but Xizi asked him to hold the kitten to keep it warm, and did all the work by himself.Looking at Xiko's dirty hands after finishing, Shota took a pack of tissues from his bag and gave it to Xiko. "Wipe your hands, I'll carry the bag for you."
"Oh, thank you." Xiko asked while wiping her hands and looking at the kitten in Shota's arms; "Which one do you want?"
"Whatever you want. You can choose." Xiangta followed suit and looked again.The fur colors of the two kittens are almost the same, both of which are mainly white, with occasional pinches of small black fur.I don't know if it's because they were just born or because they are helpless in the unknown world, the eyes of the two kittens are tightly closed, and they can't see their expressions.
"How about this, you take the little female cat, and I take the little tom cat?"
"...You observe very carefully."
"...Ah. It's settled~!"
☆、Twelve、Rukawa is fed up
? In the basketball hall, Sakuragi, who just came back from seeing Haruko off, is warming up on the side.Looking at Yasuda who seemed to be struggling to cooperate with everyone in the field, Sakuragi couldn't help but think of the elementary school boy Haruko mentioned.Although I still feel very uncomfortable thinking of that kid rejecting Haruko, but if he can really be as powerful as Haruko said.Well, maybe... Thinking of this, Sakuragi turned his head and called to Ayako who was taking notes beside her.
"Hey, Ayako-san."
"What's the matter?" Caizi responded quickly, but the pen in her hand didn't stop, with a capable look.
"I would like to ask, if there are still newcomers who want to join our basketball club, can we just submit an application for admission?"
Hearing this, Ayako stopped writing, and looked at Sakuragi with slightly wide eyes. "Well, that's right. But you have to write down the reason for delaying joining the club in the remarks. Anyone want to join the basketball club?"
"En. But it's not necessarily true. I'm going to meet that kid tomorrow to see if he has the qualifications. Thinking about it makes me angry! Haruko asked him to join the club today, but he actually refused!"
"Haruko?!" Caizi was startled, "Is that the first-year student who just transferred?"
Eh? !Sakuragi was taken aback, and the hand that patted the ball stopped. "Miss Ayako, do you know that too?"
"En." Caizi nodded, "It turns out that the girl who was rejected by the confession was rumored to be Haruko, which made me a little curious."
Hearing Caizi say "confession", Sakuragi frowned suddenly. "Haruko didn't confess her love!"
"Okay, it's just a rumor. However, Haruko's vision is generally correct. That kid really made me look forward to it before joining the club. Haha."
Seeing Caizi smiling happily, Sakuragi couldn't help but sneered in her heart. "I'm going to practice." After finishing speaking, he stood up and walked to the court.
Smiling at Sakuragi's back, Ayako continued to lower her head to take notes.
The training ended a little later than usual.After throwing the last ball, Rukawa was the first to walk into the locker room.To be precise, on the way to the locker room, Rukawa had already started changing clothes.
Looking at Rukawa who had taken off his T-shirt with his bare back, Sakuragi couldn't help feeling envious and jealous.Whenever, his Haruko could wait for him at home like Xiko waited for Rukawa.When will such a day come?
Ignoring the hot lights around him, Rukawa quickly changed his clothes and went to the garage.Thinking of the people who cook for him at home, the corners of Rukawa's mouth involuntarily ticked upwards while riding a bicycle.
The car was riding very fast, and in less than 5 minutes, Rukawa had already arrived at Xizi's door.However, the situation in front of him seems to be different from what he imagined...
Who is that boy?Rukawa frowned.
"Xi." Rukawa yelled, as if he hadn't noticed his own Xiko, and there was a hint of unhappiness in his tone.
kindness?Hearing a familiar voice, Xizi smiled and turned around to look behind her. "Chuan? You're back~" Thinking that she hadn't cooked yet, Xizi couldn't help but feel apologetic, "I'll return that meal..."
"Who is he?" Meals are all floating clouds at this moment, seeing my girlfriend and other boys forgetting to chat with him at the door at night, I don't have any appetite.Pushing the cart to Xizi's side, Rukawa glanced at the boy in front of him who was about the same height as him, and asked coldly word by word.
"Uh." Realizing that a certain man was jealous again, Xizi hurriedly explained: "Chuan, you misunderstood, I met him in the supermarket by chance, and then we..."
"Just met and walked together, it's that simple."
Uh, looking at Xiangta who suddenly interrupted her on the opposite side, Xizi sighed silently in her heart.Is this the rhythm of adding fuel to the flames... Glancing secretly at Rukawa, although he didn't say anything more, Xizi clearly felt that there was a thick invisible gloom spreading around him. ..
At this moment, a few soft kitten meows came from Shota's arms.All three were taken aback.
Saved!Xizi breathed a sigh of relief.
Holding the little tomcat from Shota's arms, Xiko handed it to Rukawa, "Look, this is the cat we rescued tonight. The mother cat died, and the two kittens were crying so sadly."
After seeing the kitten, the coldness in Rukawa's eyes left him stunned for an instant.With a somewhat incoherent hum, Rukawa stretched out his hand and touched it.But soon, Rukawa realized that there was an annoying man in front of him, and couldn't help turning his face cold again. "go home."
"...En." Xizi hummed, ready to take the bag from Xiangta.Seeing Xizi's movement, Rukawa followed suit and stretched out his hand. "I'm coming, you go in first."
"Um...oh." Xizi withdrew her hand and secretly glanced at Xiangta.However, as if nothing happened, Shota Chao Xizi smiled as if no one else was around.No discomfort at all.
Did she think too much... Xiko finally looked at Rukawa again, after thinking for a few seconds, she still felt that it would be better to go in first.So, I took the kitten to open the door and enter the house.
Taking the bag from Shota's hand, Rukawa gave Shota a cold look, then turned around and pushed the cart to the yard.However, until he parked the car and was about to enter the door, Shouta's unhurried voice came faintly behind him.
"She, I still have a bag in my hand."
"..."
Rukawa froze for a while with a sullen face, then slowly walked back.
"you do this delibrately."
Without denying it, Shota glanced at Rukawa. "You're quite cute." After finishing speaking, he put the bag on the ground, turned and left.
"..." A gust of wind blew by, and there was an indescribable feeling in Rukawa's heart.
☆, Thirteen, it turned out to be old knowledge
? When Rukawa entered, Xizi had already taken a blanket from upstairs and made a small bed for the cat in the corner of the living room.Seeing Rukawa coming in, Xizi hurried over to pick up the bag.However, Rukawa's hand holding the bag did not loosen.
Forehead.Xizi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up at Rukawa. "Sichuan?"
Hearing the voice, Rukawa looked at Xizi quietly for a while.Seeing Xizi's smiling face towards him, Rukawa slowly let go, and began to bend over to change his shoes. "Well, I'm going to take a shower."
"...Okay. I'll cook soon~ After washing up."
Standing aside with the bag in hand until watching Rukawa go upstairs, Xiko entered the kitchen.While arranging the ingredients she bought, Xizi inexplicably thought of Rukawa's unhappy face again.Scratching her head with her hands, Xizi felt a little worried.Well, she obviously didn't do anything to be sorry for Rukawa, but why did she feel so nervous.Shaking her head to calm her thoughts, Xizi quickened the movements in her hands.Well, let’s make more of Rukawa’s favorite food~
-v-.
Upstairs, in the unlit bathroom.Rukawa stood upright under the nozzle, drenched in cold water, wiped his eyes that were fascinated by the water, Rukawa shook his head.His black and dazzling eyes loomed in the darkness, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After the meal was ready, Xizi waited on the dining table with her hands on her cheeks.Hey, what happened to Rukawa.Usually it will come down in 10 minutes, why is it almost half an hour today...Could it be that what happened to them when they were outside just now?No way...
Unable to think, Xizi simply got up and went upstairs.
Unexpectedly, there was no one in the bathroom, nor in my own room.Realizing that something was wrong with Rukawa, Xizi slowly walked to Rukawa's door.Knocking on the door, Xizi put his hand on the doorknob, "Chuan...I'll come in." Seeing that there was no response, Xizi pushed the door open and walked in.
The lights in the room were not turned on, but it was still very clear that Xizi saw the back of Rukawa lying sideways on the bed.
...What's up with him.
"Chuan." Walking to the bed, Xizi shook Rukawa's shoulder.
It should be shortly after taking a shower, but Rukawa's exposed arms are still very cold.The cold touch made Xizi startled, her eyes widened slightly, and Xizi looked at Rukawa's still wet head.This fool...Xiko suddenly felt a little distressed, and couldn't help reaching out to touch Rukawa's sideways face.
"Are you a fool?"
"What should I do if I'm sick?"
"idiot."
Hearing Xizi finish the three sentences slowly, Rukawa, who had kept his eyes open, trembled.
"Not a fool."
Counting it as an answer, Rukawa said four words sullenly and pulled Xizi over to wrap him in his arms. "I'm not a fool." Rukawa repeated.
"Then what's wrong with you?" Xizi asked patiently, looking seriously at Rukawa's eyes that seemed to be covered by bangs again.
"Not happy. Not happy thinking about it."
Haha, even though I think it's inappropriate to laugh now, Ke Xizi couldn't help laughing. "Big fool, are you a repeater? You say everything twice. Is it because of the boy just now?"
Seeing that Xizi was still laughing at him, Rukawa puffed up his face. "kindness."
"Why do not you believe me?"
"Believe."
"Then why are you unhappy?"
"because of him."
"..." This is no different from saying nothing... Xizi sighed.Looking at the childish Rukawa in front of him, Xizi coaxed softly: "Then let's go to eat, we must be hungry after playing. Did you know that medicine shows that hunger can lead to bad mood?"
"You'll have to wait for me from now on."
"..." Sure enough, at this time, I couldn't listen to the words. "Okay." Xizi agreed. "Is there any other request? Our baby Rukawa?"
"..." Rukawa turned around and didn't look at Xizi.
"Have a meal..."
"Haha~~~!"
During the break the next day, Sakuragi came to the tenth year of the year after class.
As expected, he was not suitable for this tune, Rukawa closed his eyes. "Why do I have to listen to you every time. I want to hug you to sleep." No more nonsense, Rukawa pulled Xizi over to lie on him, with a smile on his lips.
The sudden change of perspective made Xizi blush.Does Rukawa think she is a quilt... The developed chest rises and falls with Rukawa's breathing, Xiko can't help but feel a little awkward. "Put me down."
"No." Rukawa put one hand around Xizi's waist easily, with a look of enjoyment.
"...Don't you feel pressured?"
"How much do you weigh?"
...
After falling asleep for another hour inexplicably, the two finally came to the basketball court.
Many times, Xizi felt that the boy standing next to her should be a Gemini.At home, he pretends to be cute and pitiful, but outside he has a handsome iceberg face.
Could it be a split personality?
Just thinking about it, a ball was thrown over. "Watch the ball."
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and Xizi didn't let the ball hit his face. "Bad guy, you're such a stinky fart when you touch a basketball. Watch me shoot a ball~!"
I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run.Xizi patted the basketball in her hand decently (thinking) and turned it between her hands to find the feel, but she didn't seem to find much, so she bent down and patted again.After almost 2 minutes of foreplay, the ball still hadn't been thrown, and Rukawa couldn't help but drop a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Can you do it?"
"It's just you, isn't it! Don't talk."
Rukawa: "..."
After two more pats, Xizi finally made a move.After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, the ball passed the net smoothly and went low.
"...Can I talk now?"
"Just laugh, hold back like that...", ran to pick up the ball, Xizi continued to shoot, "I'll try a few more balls~"
Maybe it's because of watching too much, but Xizi still has some sense of the ball undeniably. After making five mistakes, she scored three glorious goals in a row. Although, those three goals were all standing less than two meters away from the net. voted for position...
People are very interesting animals, and their judgments on the same thing are often very different due to different preferences for the person involved.For example, if the person standing next to him holding the ball and giggling was Sakuragi, Rukawa would throw a cold look at him unceremoniously and add an idiot or a big idiot.However, because the person involved is Xiko, all the original "ridiculous" meanings in Rukawa's eyes were replaced by "cute" one by one.
"So happy." After taking the ball, Rukawa touched Xiko's face with the back of his hand.
"Well, teach me how to shoot with one hand, I'm already proficient with both hands~!"
...skilled? ...
Ignoring the words of a certain girl for now, Rukawa casually twirled the ball in his hand. "Look at it first."
"Hold the ball on the shoulder with the right hand, separate the fingers naturally, the forearm is close to the vertical to the ground, don't use too much force with the left hand, hold the left side of the ball. Then look at the basket, like this, and throw the ball."
Following Rukawa's beautiful jump, the basketball in his hand slid out along the established track, and fell into the net with a plop.
Wow~ Why does it feel like he can throw it so easily, like an adult playing with a small ball.
"Can you do a slower motion again? I want to watch it carefully again."
Rukawa did as he did, while Xiko kept her eyes open and tried her best to find the point.Plop, the ball went in again, Xizi quickly reached out to try.
however--
"Rukawa, I can't use my arms like this."
"Spread your fingers a little more, relax your arms, and draw your elbows in."
"jumping up like out of touch..."
"You can feel it after jumping a few times..."
"..."
Outside the fence on one side, Haruko stared at the field with her eyes wide open.
At this time, Rukawa was patiently correcting Xiko's throwing posture, and the two arms stretched out from behind seemed to be hugging gently, protecting the baby in his arms.
Rukawa can do this.
Next to him, Sakuragi, who was pushing a pink electric car, was also shocked.Is that doting man with a smile on his mouth in the distance really the Rukawa Feng he knew?Suddenly thinking of Rukawa Kaede's reluctance and slippery hands when he taught him how to play, Sakuragi pouted.
"Sakuragi, let's go over there to see if there is any free time?"
"En." Rarely did not have the thought of arguing, Sakuragi responded and beckoned Haruko to get into the car.
However, when seeing Haruko's face, Sakuragi's heart twitched hard. "What's wrong with you, Haruko? Don't tell me...do you still like Rukawa..."
"No." Haruko waved her hand and quickly withdrew her tears. "I just... suddenly thought of my former self. Once, I also fantasized about playing with Rukawa like this... I fantasized countless times."
"Haruko..."
"It's just a sudden thought, it's nothing. Let's go over there~" Haruko said and had already sat down behind Sakuragi, the host Sakuragi. "I just want to tell Sakuragi everything, don't be angry."
Haruko...
"I will definitely become better and become the man Haruko is willing to entrust her whole life to!"
"...Let's go Sakuragi, screaming so loudly..."
...
Rukawa seemed to hear a familiar voice, and looked up to the outside of the fence.The seats where the two of Sakuragi had been standing were now only the rustling sound of leaves swaying in the wind, but no one was there.However, just when Rukawa was about to look away, a pair of dark blue eyes bumped into him unexpectedly from another direction outside the court.
☆、[-]、Reform of Summer Split
The wind blew the boy's hair. The owner of the blue eyes stared at Rukawa quietly for two seconds, then turned and left, leaving two words floating in the air.
It seems to be saying: basketball.
...
After staring at the boy's back for a while, Rukawa continued to correct Xiko.
"Elbow, go further in."
"Oh." Oh, no. "...Whose elbow are you talking about!"
"Well, this posture is correct, cast again."
"..." □□ naked ignore.
After half an hour of Rukawa's hands-on teaching, Xizi finally ended the class with an unexpected three-pointer.In order to experience her boyfriend's basketball prowess for herself, Xizi signaled Rukawa to attack with the ball, while she defended herself.
Although the real thought in my heart is: I still need to attack you?Just one ball and it's over.However, in order to let his girlfriend have a good time, Rukawa agreed.
Looking at Xizi's defense, Rukawa couldn't help but have the illusion that he was playing eagle and chicken, and that he was the old hen.Why not an eagle?Because, have you ever seen an eagle that keeps backing away? !
Rukawa secretly supported his forehead.
...
In the third week of school, the teachers of each class announced the news of the upcoming school spring sports meeting in the class meeting.For these recreational activities that are beneficial to the body and mind after study, the students have always been very vocal, and they have been whispering almost continuously since the teacher issued the notice.
As the sports committee of the class, Rukawa is undoubtedly fully responsible for this matter.Although even if he didn't do it himself, everything would be completed as well as last year, but in order to further establish the image of a responsible and good man in Xizi's heart, Rukawa went to the sports team to collect materials for the first time, which made Xi The students were all amazed.
Sakuragi, who is also a member of the sports committee, also came to the sports group. Looking at Rukawa, who was expressionlessly queuing up to get the materials, Sakuragi couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw him outside the fence yesterday.
"What a fickle fox."
...
In the gymnasium after school, Kiyota actually ran over.Because every time I come here, I follow A Mu, this time he came alone, which made everyone in Xiangbei feel very fresh.
"Why are you here? The team doesn't need training?" Miyagi glanced at Kiyota and walked over.
"Let's come and see an old friend~ It's my first time to start school. Amu and Takasago are gone, and only Ashin is my closest friend in the team. It's so lonely." Qingtian sat cross-legged on the ground and began to complain.
Suddenly, Qingtian glanced and saw a huge monster.
"Wow! Your team has another gorilla?!"
"Respect, okay? His name is Saburo Taniguchi, and he is a new student."
Hearing Ayako's correction, Kiyota blushed. "San... Saburo?"
Dare the name be a little more earthy.However, it can be regarded as Mitsui's successor, "Your team is really destined to be Sanjing. Maybe you will also get third in the preliminaries~"
"Bang~!"
A basketball was thrown towards Qing Tian's face, "Shut your stinky mouth, wild monkey. Are you here to provoke?"
"You dare to hit me?! You bloody red-haired monkey. You haven't grown up at all~!" After straightening his hairband again, Kiyota straightened his face, "I was actually sent by the team to tell you about the friendly match .”
"Friendly match?"
Rukawa in the distance also raised his ears slightly.There's a game to play.
"We've known each other for so long, so we're not so polite. We just want to find out about each other. And did your coach tell you about the latest game rules after this year's reform?"
"up to date?"
"reform?"
"competition rules?"
Everyone in Xiangbei asked questions one by one.
"Are you repeaters..." Kiyota wiped his nose and stood up. "It was only yesterday that I overheard Coach Gao and the others discussing."
"It is said that the reform of the competition system was inspired by the new rules of the winter selection competition. In the winter selection competition, many outstanding players who could not show their faces in the national competition due to team reasons shined in that competition. Like Fukasawa Such prestigious sports schools have also recruited many players who have never paid attention to them before. Therefore, in order to allow more players to have the opportunity to participate, starting from this year, each county will have three places in the annual summer competition, and the third place The team can be freely assembled from the remaining teams that have not entered the top two."
Sakuragi was taken aback when he heard that. "According to what you said, as long as you play well, you can enter the national competition? But Dad hasn't told us yet, is your news reliable!"
"It shouldn't be wrong~ But whether it is or not, it has nothing to do with us in Hainan. Our Hainan team won the second place in last year's national competition. Although... Amu is gone...but we... .But I...but...ahhh, I miss Amu so much! I really miss the days when I follow him every day, I feel so safe and happy every day!"
"..."
The more people in Xiangbei heard something wrong, they couldn't help but look at Qingtian in unison. "Could it be...you treat Amu..."
00.
Kiyota was startled suddenly, his face flushed red.
"What are you talking about! I only have...pure admiration and trust plus admiration for Amu! You unscrupulous guys."
"Oh, you're blushing! You're actually shy, wild monkey."
"Shame on your sister!"
"Otherwise why are you blushing~?"
"Speaking of you and Rukawa, don't you blush!"
"What tongue are you chewing! Don't bring me together with a dead fox!"
"That's right, I forgot to consider Rukawa Feng's feelings!"
"Are you looking for a fight!"
"come on!"
...
"Let them play, let's continue training."
Miyagi threw the ball to Rukawa, signaling to ignore the two people pointing at each other idiotically.
Rukawa sighed and drifted away, "Two big idiots who have no cure."
...
☆、[-]、Handsome elementary school boy
?Tuesday lunch break, in the water room, Xizi and Zuo E were queuing up to fetch water, while a few girls from other classes were discussing excitedly.Judging by his expression, he should be talking about something related to the opposite sex~!
Seeing Xizi's curiosity, Zuoe lightly touched Xizi behind her with her shoulder, "Sakura Court, it's already the second semester, and your ability to collect gossip has not improved! They are saying that you just came here today One of my schoolboys."
Zuo E is really a know-it-all~! ~(≧▽≦)/~
"Primary school brother?"
"Yeah, I just came here today. I watched it right after my math class. It's almost as rumored~ It's worth a look!"
What? It's "worth a look", as if it's like Jianbao, Xizi couldn't help laughing.
"Is there anything special about the elementary school brother?"
"Hey, he's just handsome~! And I heard that apart from myopia, he doesn't seem to have any shortcomings, at least for the time being!" Zuoe bent down to take the water, "And there are rumors that he seems to know Yingmu Huadao~ But no I know if you can believe it, gossip. Are you going to check it out, Rukawa is not here anyway~"
"Pfft. So what if I'm here... It's like I'm going to do something to apologize to him. I'm going back~ There must be a lot of people watching now, let's go and see it at another time~"
On the one hand, the door of Class [-] has been surrounded by more and more girls who are attracted by their reputation, and the person who is surrounded is casually flipping through the extra-curricular books in his hand, with his left hand resting on his chin casually, quite leisurely and calm .
This person is either used to being watched by the crowd, or is extremely boring.
Passing through the crowd, Haruko saw the boy's face clearly.It's really pretty~!But that's not the point of her visit.
Gathering up the courage to walk over, Haruko looked at the boy, "Hi, hello. I'm Haruko Akagi from Class [-], Grade [-]. Excuse me, do you like playing basketball?"
The boy's expressionless face changed slightly when he heard the word "basketball", but because of the bangs on his forehead and the exaggerated glasses, it was hard for outsiders to see it.
"I don't like it." There was a lazy tone, and no emotion could be heard.
"...But your figure is very suitable..."
"I said I didn't like it."
"Forehead.."
Haruko, who was rarely rejected, was a little embarrassed, so she smiled and apologized and left.
"I told you not to be so impulsive. You see, all the girls in the school must know that you were rejected." Matsui, who was wearing a double ponytail, patted Haruko on the shoulder reassuringly.
"But...if he can enter the basketball club, he might become Shonhoku's savior just like Sakuragi did last year!"
"But I thought he would agree. At least he didn't refuse so coldly. After all, it was a pretty girl who asked him. Sure enough, you can't judge by appearance. Fortunately, he still looks like a good student."
"Well...but I still don't want to give up! If my brother is here, he will definitely support me. I will ask him again when I find time! Definitely!"
Haruko clenched her fists and swore.
"Your personality that is not afraid of death really hasn't changed at all. Then go for it! We can only wish you good luck."
...
Gossip always spreads quickly, especially this kind of gossip between boys and girls.When school was over that night, Sakuragi, who was lying on the table, received a small note from Takamiya.It read: Rumor: Haruko went to the first grade at noon to confess her love to the handsome boy, but was rejected. (though I don't believe it)
Naturally, Sakuragi didn't believe it, but she still felt a little uncomfortable unconsciously, crumpling it into a paper ball and throwing it aside.
He didn't believe any bullshit rumors.
However, when Haruko appeared at the door of the classroom with an apologetic expression, Sakuragi's heart sank.Could it be...
"Sorry Sakuragi, that rumor..."
"I don't want to listen." Sakuragi squatted down, covering his ears, and closed his eyes tightly.
"Sakuragi, you are promising, at least wait for Haruko to finish speaking." Yohei who had packed his schoolbag came over and patted Sakuragi on the back.
Guessing that Sakuragi had taken the message seriously, Haruko quickly reached out to pull Sakuragi. "Sakuragi, you are really a big idiot, I mean the rumors are not true! I didn't confess my love!"
The ears suddenly stretched and grew bigger happily, and Sakuragi suddenly stood up with her hands on her hips, laughing exaggeratedly. "Ahaha~ I'll just say it, Haruko can't! What kind of nerves are just chewing their tongues."
"Stupid Sakuragi." Haruko smiled at Sakuragi, and put her hand on her chin, "But it's really difficult, if only he agreed."
promise?What promise?Promise what?Sakuragi narrowed her eyes again.
"It's like this. I did go to the first grade at noon to find an elementary school boy. But the reason I looked for him was because I wanted him to join the basketball club. But he said he didn't like it."
It turned out to be like this.Isn't that the same as Haruko looked for herself a year ago.Cut, brat, I really don't know how to seize the opportunity.
"Do you want others to seize the opportunity to grab your girlfriend?" Seeing Sakuragi's thoughts, Yohei joked with a smile.
"I'm going first, see you tomorrow~"
"bye~/See you tomorrow~"
Almost everyone in the classroom left, Sakuragi also started to pack her schoolbag, "Is that kid as good as me!?"
"Well..." Haruko thought for a while. "Not as tall as you, but he has a good figure, strong muscles, and looks very athletic. It's just...his eyes seem to be short-sighted."
"Tch, I guess this kid is pretending to be a bad fart on purpose. I'll meet him tomorrow, and I'll leave it to me to let him join the club~! I want to see if he has the qualifications~ as the future captain of Xiangbei , I have to take this responsibility."
...Sakuragi seems to be pulling away again.
"By the way, Sakuragi, I just found out today that you bought your electric car with the money you earned from working during spring break. I'm so touched, thank you Sakuragi!"
Which big mouth leaked the secret, didn't they say it was good to keep it secret!
"Hey, it's nothing. As a man, you should be responsible. The gorilla is gone, so I must take better care of you. Let's go~ Go push our little fan~"
"Sakuragi..." Haruko looked at Sakuragi holding her hand with a moved face. "Actually, I can go back by myself. It's too hard for you to send me back every night and come back to practice."
Hearing what Haruko said, Sakuragi quickly shook her head. "No, no, no, how could it be! For Haruko, I don't feel hard work at all~! I don't know what hard work is~. Go push fans, we Haruko are going home~" Saying this, Sakuragi pulled Follow Haruko to the garage.Although Sakuragi's nerves may be a little stretched, and his temper is also a little grumpy.But as a boyfriend, he is really gentle and gentle.
On the other hand, because there was no food at home, Xizi did not go to practice with Rukawa tonight but went to the supermarket alone.
The human world can be said to be big or small, the key lies in the people you know and the things you have experienced.As soon as he pushed the cart, Xizi saw a familiar figure.But... why is he wearing Xiangbei's school uniform?
Just as he was thinking, the man turned around and saw Xizi.After two seconds of silence, the boy's eyebrows were slightly raised, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he walked towards Xizi with a natural expression.
"Such a coincidence."
Casually pushing with one hand to stand next to Xizi, Shota looked at Xizi who seemed to be in a daze.
"What's the matter, haven't you seen it?"
"Uh, no." Xizi glanced at Shota's school uniform again, "Are you... a student of our school?"
"Huh? En." Shota continued to add after straightening his neckline a little. "I just transferred here today, senior sister please give me some advice."
Uh... so he is younger than me.ah!Could it be that handsome young boy that Zuo E mentioned was just transferred here... Looking at Shota's beautiful dark blue eyes, Xiko thought of his funny glasses.
"By the way, last time you left your glasses in the taxi, I'll give them to you tomorrow? Which class are you in?"
Hearing Xizi mention the glasses, Shota subconsciously reached for the backpack with his left hand.About to take out something, Xiangta's hand stopped suddenly.Hmm... Maybe that would be more interesting.
"The back row of the tenth class a year." Naturally, he took his hand back, and Xiangta pushed the cart with both hands. "Your boyfriend didn't come with you?"
"En?" Xizi blushed suddenly, how did he know that he had a boyfriend... "He wants to practice basketball."
Hearing Xiangta hum in a low voice, Xizi looked at Xiangta carefully again.
"Well, you should also play basketball, right?"
Xiangtai was slightly taken aback, and nodded. "A little bit. What do you want to buy?"
Um, after being reminded by Shota, Xizi realized that the two of them were pushing two shopping carts at the entrance of the supermarket.
"Um, buy something to eat. Have you finished shopping?"
"Not yet, I just came too."
"Oh, let's..." "Let's talk while buying."
Er, Xizi pursed her lips, she wanted to say, "Then let's split up".Seeing Xiangta's body that had already moved one step ahead, Xizi pursed her lips to keep up.
After half an hour of quick shopping, both of them came out with full shopping bags.It turned out that Shota's house was only one stop away from Xiko's house. The reason why Shota knew that Xiko had a boyfriend was because on that rainy day, he happened to see Rukawa who came to pick him up through the car window.We were about to say goodbye to Shota at the station, when the intermittent meowing came from the grass on one side, which sounded very faint.Curiously walking over to push aside the vegetation, Xizi saw two newborn kittens curled up under the belly of a big cat, meowing.
Probably a stray cat.Xizi carefully poked the big cat's belly with her hand, but the big cat didn't move, but the kitten under the belly barked louder.Is... dead?Xizi touched it with her hand again.
"The female cat is dead." Xiangta also squatted down.
Gently pushing the mother cat away, Shota stretched out his hand to run along the soft fur of the kitten. "Since you can't afford the consequences, why should it happen?"
kindness..?What's up with him.Why do you think he is alluding to something?
Seemingly realizing that he said something that shouldn't be said, Shota looked at Xizi. "Let's raise one for each person, how about it?"
"Okay. But let's bury the mother cat first."
"kindness."
Putting the shopping bag aside, Xizi went to a nearby convenience store to buy a small shovel. In about 10 minutes, the mother cat was buried in a hidden corner, and she should be able to rest in peace.Xiangta wanted to be buried with him, but Xizi asked him to hold the kitten to keep it warm, and did all the work by himself.Looking at Xiko's dirty hands after finishing, Shota took a pack of tissues from his bag and gave it to Xiko. "Wipe your hands, I'll carry the bag for you."
"Oh, thank you." Xiko asked while wiping her hands and looking at the kitten in Shota's arms; "Which one do you want?"
"Whatever you want. You can choose." Xiangta followed suit and looked again.The fur colors of the two kittens are almost the same, both of which are mainly white, with occasional pinches of small black fur.I don't know if it's because they were just born or because they are helpless in the unknown world, the eyes of the two kittens are tightly closed, and they can't see their expressions.
"How about this, you take the little female cat, and I take the little tom cat?"
"...You observe very carefully."
"...Ah. It's settled~!"
☆、Twelve、Rukawa is fed up
? In the basketball hall, Sakuragi, who just came back from seeing Haruko off, is warming up on the side.Looking at Yasuda who seemed to be struggling to cooperate with everyone in the field, Sakuragi couldn't help but think of the elementary school boy Haruko mentioned.Although I still feel very uncomfortable thinking of that kid rejecting Haruko, but if he can really be as powerful as Haruko said.Well, maybe... Thinking of this, Sakuragi turned his head and called to Ayako who was taking notes beside her.
"Hey, Ayako-san."
"What's the matter?" Caizi responded quickly, but the pen in her hand didn't stop, with a capable look.
"I would like to ask, if there are still newcomers who want to join our basketball club, can we just submit an application for admission?"
Hearing this, Ayako stopped writing, and looked at Sakuragi with slightly wide eyes. "Well, that's right. But you have to write down the reason for delaying joining the club in the remarks. Anyone want to join the basketball club?"
"En. But it's not necessarily true. I'm going to meet that kid tomorrow to see if he has the qualifications. Thinking about it makes me angry! Haruko asked him to join the club today, but he actually refused!"
"Haruko?!" Caizi was startled, "Is that the first-year student who just transferred?"
Eh? !Sakuragi was taken aback, and the hand that patted the ball stopped. "Miss Ayako, do you know that too?"
"En." Caizi nodded, "It turns out that the girl who was rejected by the confession was rumored to be Haruko, which made me a little curious."
Hearing Caizi say "confession", Sakuragi frowned suddenly. "Haruko didn't confess her love!"
"Okay, it's just a rumor. However, Haruko's vision is generally correct. That kid really made me look forward to it before joining the club. Haha."
Seeing Caizi smiling happily, Sakuragi couldn't help but sneered in her heart. "I'm going to practice." After finishing speaking, he stood up and walked to the court.
Smiling at Sakuragi's back, Ayako continued to lower her head to take notes.
The training ended a little later than usual.After throwing the last ball, Rukawa was the first to walk into the locker room.To be precise, on the way to the locker room, Rukawa had already started changing clothes.
Looking at Rukawa who had taken off his T-shirt with his bare back, Sakuragi couldn't help feeling envious and jealous.Whenever, his Haruko could wait for him at home like Xiko waited for Rukawa.When will such a day come?
Ignoring the hot lights around him, Rukawa quickly changed his clothes and went to the garage.Thinking of the people who cook for him at home, the corners of Rukawa's mouth involuntarily ticked upwards while riding a bicycle.
The car was riding very fast, and in less than 5 minutes, Rukawa had already arrived at Xizi's door.However, the situation in front of him seems to be different from what he imagined...
Who is that boy?Rukawa frowned.
"Xi." Rukawa yelled, as if he hadn't noticed his own Xiko, and there was a hint of unhappiness in his tone.
kindness?Hearing a familiar voice, Xizi smiled and turned around to look behind her. "Chuan? You're back~" Thinking that she hadn't cooked yet, Xizi couldn't help but feel apologetic, "I'll return that meal..."
"Who is he?" Meals are all floating clouds at this moment, seeing my girlfriend and other boys forgetting to chat with him at the door at night, I don't have any appetite.Pushing the cart to Xizi's side, Rukawa glanced at the boy in front of him who was about the same height as him, and asked coldly word by word.
"Uh." Realizing that a certain man was jealous again, Xizi hurriedly explained: "Chuan, you misunderstood, I met him in the supermarket by chance, and then we..."
"Just met and walked together, it's that simple."
Uh, looking at Xiangta who suddenly interrupted her on the opposite side, Xizi sighed silently in her heart.Is this the rhythm of adding fuel to the flames... Glancing secretly at Rukawa, although he didn't say anything more, Xizi clearly felt that there was a thick invisible gloom spreading around him. ..
At this moment, a few soft kitten meows came from Shota's arms.All three were taken aback.
Saved!Xizi breathed a sigh of relief.
Holding the little tomcat from Shota's arms, Xiko handed it to Rukawa, "Look, this is the cat we rescued tonight. The mother cat died, and the two kittens were crying so sadly."
After seeing the kitten, the coldness in Rukawa's eyes left him stunned for an instant.With a somewhat incoherent hum, Rukawa stretched out his hand and touched it.But soon, Rukawa realized that there was an annoying man in front of him, and couldn't help turning his face cold again. "go home."
"...En." Xizi hummed, ready to take the bag from Xiangta.Seeing Xizi's movement, Rukawa followed suit and stretched out his hand. "I'm coming, you go in first."
"Um...oh." Xizi withdrew her hand and secretly glanced at Xiangta.However, as if nothing happened, Shota Chao Xizi smiled as if no one else was around.No discomfort at all.
Did she think too much... Xiko finally looked at Rukawa again, after thinking for a few seconds, she still felt that it would be better to go in first.So, I took the kitten to open the door and enter the house.
Taking the bag from Shota's hand, Rukawa gave Shota a cold look, then turned around and pushed the cart to the yard.However, until he parked the car and was about to enter the door, Shouta's unhurried voice came faintly behind him.
"She, I still have a bag in my hand."
"..."
Rukawa froze for a while with a sullen face, then slowly walked back.
"you do this delibrately."
Without denying it, Shota glanced at Rukawa. "You're quite cute." After finishing speaking, he put the bag on the ground, turned and left.
"..." A gust of wind blew by, and there was an indescribable feeling in Rukawa's heart.
☆, Thirteen, it turned out to be old knowledge
? When Rukawa entered, Xizi had already taken a blanket from upstairs and made a small bed for the cat in the corner of the living room.Seeing Rukawa coming in, Xizi hurried over to pick up the bag.However, Rukawa's hand holding the bag did not loosen.
Forehead.Xizi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up at Rukawa. "Sichuan?"
Hearing the voice, Rukawa looked at Xizi quietly for a while.Seeing Xizi's smiling face towards him, Rukawa slowly let go, and began to bend over to change his shoes. "Well, I'm going to take a shower."
"...Okay. I'll cook soon~ After washing up."
Standing aside with the bag in hand until watching Rukawa go upstairs, Xiko entered the kitchen.While arranging the ingredients she bought, Xizi inexplicably thought of Rukawa's unhappy face again.Scratching her head with her hands, Xizi felt a little worried.Well, she obviously didn't do anything to be sorry for Rukawa, but why did she feel so nervous.Shaking her head to calm her thoughts, Xizi quickened the movements in her hands.Well, let’s make more of Rukawa’s favorite food~
-v-.
Upstairs, in the unlit bathroom.Rukawa stood upright under the nozzle, drenched in cold water, wiped his eyes that were fascinated by the water, Rukawa shook his head.His black and dazzling eyes loomed in the darkness, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After the meal was ready, Xizi waited on the dining table with her hands on her cheeks.Hey, what happened to Rukawa.Usually it will come down in 10 minutes, why is it almost half an hour today...Could it be that what happened to them when they were outside just now?No way...
Unable to think, Xizi simply got up and went upstairs.
Unexpectedly, there was no one in the bathroom, nor in my own room.Realizing that something was wrong with Rukawa, Xizi slowly walked to Rukawa's door.Knocking on the door, Xizi put his hand on the doorknob, "Chuan...I'll come in." Seeing that there was no response, Xizi pushed the door open and walked in.
The lights in the room were not turned on, but it was still very clear that Xizi saw the back of Rukawa lying sideways on the bed.
...What's up with him.
"Chuan." Walking to the bed, Xizi shook Rukawa's shoulder.
It should be shortly after taking a shower, but Rukawa's exposed arms are still very cold.The cold touch made Xizi startled, her eyes widened slightly, and Xizi looked at Rukawa's still wet head.This fool...Xiko suddenly felt a little distressed, and couldn't help reaching out to touch Rukawa's sideways face.
"Are you a fool?"
"What should I do if I'm sick?"
"idiot."
Hearing Xizi finish the three sentences slowly, Rukawa, who had kept his eyes open, trembled.
"Not a fool."
Counting it as an answer, Rukawa said four words sullenly and pulled Xizi over to wrap him in his arms. "I'm not a fool." Rukawa repeated.
"Then what's wrong with you?" Xizi asked patiently, looking seriously at Rukawa's eyes that seemed to be covered by bangs again.
"Not happy. Not happy thinking about it."
Haha, even though I think it's inappropriate to laugh now, Ke Xizi couldn't help laughing. "Big fool, are you a repeater? You say everything twice. Is it because of the boy just now?"
Seeing that Xizi was still laughing at him, Rukawa puffed up his face. "kindness."
"Why do not you believe me?"
"Believe."
"Then why are you unhappy?"
"because of him."
"..." This is no different from saying nothing... Xizi sighed.Looking at the childish Rukawa in front of him, Xizi coaxed softly: "Then let's go to eat, we must be hungry after playing. Did you know that medicine shows that hunger can lead to bad mood?"
"You'll have to wait for me from now on."
"..." Sure enough, at this time, I couldn't listen to the words. "Okay." Xizi agreed. "Is there any other request? Our baby Rukawa?"
"..." Rukawa turned around and didn't look at Xizi.
"Have a meal..."
"Haha~~~!"
During the break the next day, Sakuragi came to the tenth year of the year after class.
