[Slam Dunk] Undefended heart

Open the window, the outside wind blows in, and the purple wishing wind chime dances in the wind, making a pleasant sound.The weather in February was still bitingly cold, Kaoru flinched and closed the window again.Looking back at the big and small bags of luggage, Kaoru stroked his sleeves and began to tidy up.

When it was time to move, both Zhang and Bingyu insisted on coming to help, but she declined.It's not because of politeness, after all, everyone is so familiar, but she really has very little luggage alone.Kaoru couldn't help sighing when she thought of her parents who hadn't seen her for a long time. When she decided to come to Kanagawa, she just had a brief phone call with them.Their family has always adopted a free-range policy, so their parents never interfere with her affairs, and this time is no exception.

After spending the whole morning, Kaoru finally sorted everything out.After making a cup of hot cocoa with boiled water, Kaoru sat down on the single sofa in the living room holding the thermos cup, blew on the hot air, and took a sip. The sweet cocoa taste slowly diffused in his mouth, and at the same time Let the stomach warm up.Kaoru sighed comfortably, leaned on the back of the sofa, scanned the whole room, and raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

Because I live alone, Kaoru rents an apartment.A house with three bedrooms and one living room, one bedroom, one study room, and one room reserved for her parents who will suddenly return to China to visit her at some point, as well as Bingyu, Yuu and Qianxia who may come here occasionally, this is where she may live in the future I have lived in my home for three years.

Aunt Akira and Junko originally asked her to live with them, saying that she had a caretaker, but she finally decided to live here alone. As for the reason... Kaoru put down the glass, walked to the window of the living room, and lay on the edge of the window Going up, looking down at a Japanese-style mansion opposite, his eyes gradually became tinged with joy.

Thinking of Bing Yu's description of her after hearing it before, Kaoru couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh, stalker...it's very interesting!

At this moment, the door of the Japanese-style house on the opposite side suddenly opened, and a teenager wearing a black sweatshirt and a black scarf came out from inside, holding a basketball in his hand.

Eyes widened in surprise, Kaoru hurriedly stood up, took the light gray sweater from the sofa beside her, and ran out.While running downstairs, putting on her coat, Kaoru realized that she didn't take the scarf, but forget it, there are more important things to do!

By the time Xun ran downstairs, the black-haired boy had already run away. Seeing the boy dribbling the ball away, Xun smiled and immediately stepped up to catch up.This amount of exercise is not a problem for her. She spent three years in the tennis club in junior high school for nothing, but... If I had known this, she should not have been wearing boots but sneakers. Fortunately, they are flat heels .

"Rukawa Kaede, we meet again!" After finally catching up with the black-haired boy in front, Kaoru slowed down a little and kept the same speed as him.

At this moment, Rukawa still looked sleepy, squinting his eyes and looking at the girl who suddenly appeared beside him, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, and then searched the pitifully few social information in his mind , which obviously does not include the person in front of him.

"... Kaoru, Nanase Kaoru." As if seeing Rukawa's doubts, Kaoru introduced himself again.Rukawa doesn't remember things about his childhood. Although Kaoru was a little disappointed, he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, it happened so long ago.

Rukawa glanced at her, blinked sleepily, and saw that she didn't seem to have anything to say, so he turned around and continued to run forward with the ball.

Kaoru didn't speak again, but just slowed down a little, and kept a distance of about five steps behind Rukawa, following him unhurriedly.Kaoru had a trace of doubt in his heart. Although Rukawa was still as indifferent as when he was a child, it seemed a little different from when he was a child.After thinking about it, Kaoru was relieved again, it has been ten years, and it is impossible to remain the same.

When Rukawa ran to the basketball court in a nearby park, he thought that the strange girl behind him was gone. After all, it was not a short distance from his home to the park, and he had to keep up with his speed.But when he turned his head, he found that the girl was standing behind him, and her breath was not chaotic at all.Rukawa plucked his hair, and a look of surprise flashed across his calm eyes, but it had nothing to do with him. Thinking of this, Rukawa began to do basic exercises.

Kaoru leaned against the wire fence to the side, stretched out his somewhat frozen red hand to his mouth and breathed out, then rubbed it, and stuck it to the same frozen red face.Looking at Rukawa who was tirelessly doing basic training on the court, Kaoru gradually softened his gaze, and sure enough, he still hasn't changed!He is still the boy who loved basketball back then!

Even in the afternoon, the weather is still chilly, so there are few pedestrians in the park.This kind of quiet and undisturbed environment is exactly what Rukawa likes, but it would be even better if the strange girl next to her who has not left for two hours can leave.I don't know if God heard his heart, but the girl really turned around and walked away.

After playing basketball again, Rukawa looked up at the clock erected in the park beside him. It was almost four o'clock, and it was almost time to go home.Rukawa raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, then left the park while dribbling the ball.

"Rukawa!"

When Rukawa just walked out of the park, he heard a voice that was not too unfamiliar from the side. Rukawa subconsciously looked sideways, and saw the strange girl who had already left running towards him again. He frowned slightly.

"Great, just in time!" Panting, Kaoru stopped in front of Rukawa, breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed him a can of drink that he had been holding tightly in his arms, "It seems a bit remote here, I It took me a long time to find a convenience store, but luckily the can of black tea hasn’t cooled down.”

Seeing that Rukawa was just looking at the drink in her hand, without any intention of taking it, Kaoru pulled Rukawa's left hand involuntarily, stuffed the warm drink into his hand, and then showed him a big smile.

Rukawa glanced at Kaoru, then threw back the drink in his hand to her, and said lightly, "No need." After speaking, Rukawa stopped staying and continued to walk forward.The temperature of the hot drink still remained in the palm of the left hand, obviously this temperature was unfamiliar to Rukawa...

Kaoru caught the drink, was taken aback for a moment, and then returned to her usual smile. Kaoru caught up with Rukawa in front, looked up at Rukawa's side face, and said, "Don't you like black tea? Then buy green tea next time."

Rukawa just dribbled the ball, then yawned, and didn't answer.

"Hot coffee is also good, it can refresh you, but it's not good to drink after exercise." Kaoru didn't seem to care about Rukawa's answer, it was more like talking to himself.

"It's really noisy." Rukawa murmured softly, it was obviously the first time he met someone who could speak so well and was not afraid of being left alone.

"What kind of juice does Rukawa like to drink?"

Rukawa glanced at the smiling girl next to him out of the corner of his eye, and sighed inexplicably.

"Coke? It tastes good, but it doesn't quench your thirst and doesn't provide any nutrition." She suddenly thought of another carbonated drink lover.

"..." He didn't say anything, why would she know...

Before reaching the door of the house, Rukawa saw a familiar figure coming from the opposite side.Rukawa walked to the gate, then stopped, looked at the elegant woman in a dark green kimono opposite, and called, "Mother."

The woman was wearing a handmade kimono, her black hair was coiled up with a hairpin, and a few strands of hair hung gently on her fair cheeks, lifted slightly by the wind, and gently brushed her beautiful and delicate face.

"Has Xiaofeng gone home too?" Looking up at her son, the woman had a loving smile on her face, and suddenly noticed the black-haired girl standing behind her son, the woman couldn't help but stare slightly in surprise. She rolled her eyes, "Who is this lady?" Her Xiaofeng would actually bring a girl home, what a miracle!

Rukawa looked back at the girl standing behind him, scratched her hair, and when he didn't know how to explain, Kaoru stepped forward and said hello, "Auntie, hello, I just moved today. Nanase Kaoru who came over, my house lives opposite." Kaoru pointed to the window where the wind chime was hung.

"Ah, hello, I'm Xiaofeng's mother, Rukawa Chiyo." Chiyo couldn't help but look up and down at the cute girl with a friendly smile in front of her. She had a good first impression of her, "Nanase seems to be the same as my Xiaofeng. About the same age."

"In the spring of this year, I will be promoted to high school, Xiangbei High School." Kaoru smiled a little shyly, and Rukawa couldn't help being a little surprised when his expression fell into Rukawa's eyes. This person changed his face so quickly...

"What a coincidence, our Xiaofeng just graduated from high school this year, and it's also Xiangbei high school!" Chiyo felt that she was destined to be with the girl in front of her, and immediately became a little friendly, "Did Nanase move here like her parents? "

"No, I live alone, and my parents are both working abroad." Xun slightly narrowed his eyes, and there was an unconcealable loneliness in his eyes.

Hearing that Kaoru lived alone at a young age, Chiyo couldn't help feeling sorry for the girl in front of her, especially when she saw the trace of loneliness in her eyes that couldn't be concealed.

Kaoru looked down at his watch, and said, "It's getting late, so I won't bother you, and I'll come to visit next time." Saying that, Kaoru bowed politely, turned around and was about to leave, but was caught behind Chiyo stopped.

"Nanase, do you eat dinner alone?" Chiyo suddenly thought that she had just moved here today, so she probably didn't have time to prepare dinner.

"Well, I just went to the supermarket to do some shopping this morning. I bought a box of instant noodles and kept them at home." Kaoru's smile looked optimistic and strong at the moment.

"Eating instant noodles is not nutritious," Chiyo shook her head disapprovingly, then walked up to take Kaoru's hand, and sincerely invited, "Nanase, come to our house for dinner tonight, I'll buy some noodles today. A lot of dishes."

"This...isn't so good, it's too disturbing." Kaoru bit her lower lip, looked at Chiyo embarrassedly, and then secretly glanced at Rukawa next to her.

"What does it matter, right, Xiaofeng?" Obviously, Chiyo noticed Xun's little gesture just now, and he knew it in his heart. Although Xiaofeng was taciturn, his relationship with the opposite sex was good.

Seeing his mother winking at him, and the girl on the side looking at him expectantly, Rukawa blinked, then nodded.Although he doesn't understand why his mother asks his opinion when she invites others to eat at home, and that... By the way, it seems to be Kaoru Nanase, who obviously wants to come, why does she still look embarrassed.

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Kaoru smiled shyly, then reached out to take the bouquet of flowers in Chiyo's hand, and volunteered, "Aunt Chiyo, I can do cooking too, and I will do it later. help you."

"Yeah, that's great, we'll do it tonight..."

While chatting with Kaoru, Chiyo took her hand and walked into the house together, liking this child more and more in his heart, as expected he should have a caring daughter back then.

The two entered the house happily, leaving Rukawa outside alone.Looking up at the sky, it might be snowing again, Rukawa yawned sleepily, stepped into the house, and closed the wooden door smoothly.

After returning to her apartment at night, Kaoru put the untouched box of luxurious sushi on the table into the refrigerator, then sat down on the sofa in the living room, and made a familiar phone call, "Hi , Ice Feather, I'm Kaoru... Well, it's not bad, everything is tidied up... Hee hee, how can I be lonely, I'm used to it, and I'm super excited now... By the way, Bing Yu , do you remember when I asked you what it was like to have something you were passionate about when you were in the first year of the country? I seem to be able to understand it now, this feeling is really good..."

It doesn't matter if he forgets her, because she will let him remember her again, and then he won't forget her again.
