The boy's eyebrows were frowned, he was facing the light, his expression was a little blurred in the shadow.

The mist in her eyes obscured the sight of the blonde girl, and she only saw the brown-haired boy squatting down in front of her.

His voice was a few degrees lower than usual, and the usual gentleness seemed to be mixed with fine sand.

he said to her.

【"Nanase-san, are you crying?"】

The mist in Nanase Guang's eyes found a converging point at this moment, and they converged into crystal water droplets, flowing out from the corners of the girl's eyes.

She didn't want to cry.

It looks so ugly crying.

She didn't want to lose face in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi.

But ah...

As soon as she heard the boy's voice, she couldn't help crying.

It seemed that Nanase Hikari's emotions would suddenly explode, and Tsunayoshi Sawada, who was squatting down, panicked for a moment.

Even compared to the 14-year-old him two years ago, the 17-year-old Tsunayoshi Sawada has lost his childishness and innocence.

But this does not mean that a 17-year-old boy knows how to deal with a girl's tears.

The brown-haired boy panicked and took out a handkerchief from his coat pocket. His lips moved, but his voice was choked in his throat.

Until the end, he could only organize intermittent words.

【Nanase-san... that, that...】

The girl immersed in crying had no time to pay attention to the handkerchief handed by the brown-haired boy in front of her.

She just sat there, like a helpless child, staring at the boy in front of her without moving.

Sawada Tsunayoshi himself didn't know why, and the restlessness and panic in his heart fell silent in an instant.The young man gently closed his eyes, his voice was gentle, and his figure melted into the flickering lights outside the alley.

The boy showed a comforting smile to the girl in front of him.

【"It's okay, Nanase-san."】

【"I'm here."】

In the end, Tsunayoshi Sawada still couldn't say something like don't cry to the girl in front of him.

He looked at the girl in front of him with those warm brown eyes, just as she looked at him.

Nanase Hikaru's cry subsided, her shoulders trembled slightly, her cheeks were probably a little flushed from crying just now.

She tried to stop herself, but sobbed uncontrollably.

The girl in desperation even hiccupped a little.

Sawada Tsunayoshi curled his lips, and he handed the light blue handkerchief to the girl again.

【"What happened, Nanase-san?"】

After the girl took the handkerchief, Sawada Tsunayoshi's voice sounded.

Nanase Hikaru raised her head slightly when she heard the voice, her lips parted, and finally closed again.

The brown-haired boy took in all the girl's little moves.

The 17-year-old Tsunayoshi Sawada had a little helplessness in his voice.

【"Nanase-san?"】

【"Um?"】

【"Do you want to try and rely on me."】

17-year-old Nanase Hikari likes to share all happy things with those she likes.

Sometimes the popsicle bought in the supermarket won the lottery, and sometimes it was accidentally late but the teacher didn't find out.

Sometimes it's a step closer to your goal, sometimes it's a noisy weekend with friends.

But ah.

Sometimes I forgot to bring change on the bus, and sometimes I accidentally fell down while running.

Sometimes I hide in a corner and complain about my inadequacies, and sometimes I lie in an empty room feeling lonely and lost.

Sometimes, Nanase Hikaru will never tell others.

in particular.

Kokichi Sawada.

When you like someone, you want to dedicate all the good things to him, watch the stars fall in the bottom of his eyes, and blow away all the thick dark clouds.

What's more, Nanase Hikaru is not used to the word "dependence".

In the girl's mind, dependence is tantamount to trouble.

Sawada Tsunayoshi is already too busy to take care of himself - this is what Hikaru Nanase knows best when he watched the boy go from the summer when he was 14 to the spring when he was 17.

But now, the person she likes.

Squatting right in front of her, her gentle voice was slightly hoarse, like the rustling sound of an April spring breeze blowing through soft willow branches.

【"Do you want to try and rely on me."】

The mist in the eyes was finally wiped out, and the blond girl was slightly stunned by Sawada Tsunayoshi's words.

Nanase Hikaru couldn't remember what he said at that time.

She only remembered that the brown-haired boy frowned and listened to her speak intermittently. Then, in the name of Pengele Judaime, he sent his subordinates in Tokyo to Ikebukuro Commercial Street.

The orange-red flames ignited, and the boy's eyes were dyed a faint golden color.

In the midst of the jumping flames, Sawada Tsunayoshi stretched out his hand to the girl who was crouching on the ground.

【"Let's go, Nanase-san."】

The boy she liked asked her if she wanted to rely on him.

The girl put her hand on the palm of Sawada Tsunayoshi.

——You said it.

——Don’t go back on your word.

——I will remember it forever.

Nanase Hikari didn't say any of these words.

Her eyelashes trembled, and the corners of her lips curled up with strands of blond hair.

The 24-year-old Nanase Hikaru woke up from the memory.

[Miss Alice]: Yes, I have liked Tsuna-kun since then.

She paused, and the message she sent was tinged with sarcasm.

[Miss Alice]: So, even if it is on a first-come, first-served basis, your nickname will be mine from now on.

[Miss Alice]: Waistband.jpg

[Mrs. Pengelet No. 1]: Hmph, Miss Nanase, this is the only thing I won't budge on.

[Reminder: You have joined the group chat Peng Gelie's strongest support group]

Nanase clicked on the group chat interface, and a series of welcomes quickly overwhelmed the girl's greetings.

[A who does not want to reveal her name]: Warmly welcome Ms. Nanase to join the support club!

[A who does not want to reveal his name]: There are no rules in this group, the only one is——

[A who doesn't want to reveal his name]: Absolutely—absolutely, the boss and Lord Lanshou must not know the existence of this group!

Nanase clearly sent an OK expression.

Everyone should be aware of the reason why Prison Temple Hayato was not allowed to know.

As for why the brown-haired youth was not allowed to know...

Nanase Hikari felt that, in fact, Tsunayoshi Sawada would not be angry if he knew about it.

He would probably just smile gently and say something like "So that's how it is".

but……

[A who doesn't want to reveal his name]: If the boss knows about it, it always feels like blasphemy...

Ok.

If Gang Jun knew about it, she probably wouldn't be able to hold her head up as a human being.

Nanase Hikaru thought so, and was about to cut out the chat interface.

And at this moment, an extremely familiar voice came from beside her.

"Nanase-san?"

Well, it's Tsunayoshi Sawada.

……

No, it's Tsunayoshi Sawada! !
