Enough is enough.

Born in Ando's family, she plays the role of "Miss" day after day, year after year.

Like a drama script, a life is decided.

uninteresting.

want to be free.

Need to be warm.

I hope to escape from the cage-like mansion.

However, if she is not playing the role of the eldest lady, she is not Ando Nozomi, so who is she?

All along, this problem has been ignored intentionally or unintentionally.Fear of thinking deeply, leading to losing oneself.

Until the first time she saw Minato Yu because of club affairs, she felt a little shaken in her original position.

The temperament is dusty and indifferent, which belongs to the sense of oppression of the superior, just like...

—Gods.

It must have been then that the seeds of hope were planted, and gradually grew and thrived day by day.

Anyway, the most desolate appearance has been seen, so what is there to care about?

Simply smash the jar.

The gradually enlarged shadow is reflected in the eyelids.

If it was this person—he would definitely be able to save her!

With an inexplicable obsession, what came to her ears was the crisp sound of her leather shoes landing when she was running. It seemed to hit her heart every time, deepening her tension and... joy.

Even if she was pulled hastily, her gorgeous face remained as emotionless as before.

But not intimidating.

The setting sun shone on Yu Chengmin's body, diluting the cold feeling and even making people feel a little gentle.

After adjusting the breathing rate, in order to prevent the other party from hearing clearly, Nozomi Ando repeated, "President, are you free?"

"available."

"Is it convenient to give me time?"

"convenient."

The voice is as crisp as a silver bell, and it is as beautiful as the sound of nature in Ando Ki's ears.

Because this answer was what she wanted.

Taken to the student meeting room.

After all, they are all eye-catching existences. If you talk about it in any place, you will be constantly paid attention to; if you go to a hidden place to talk, you will be bumped into, and it will attract people's imagination.

Nozomi Ando observed the other party from the corner of his eyes—the short black hair further accentuated his snow-white complexion, his facial features were beautiful, his brows were horizontal, his lips were slightly pursed, the ends of his eyelashes were slightly raised, and his black eyes were as beautiful as moist black jade.

Even if they are all girls, there is still a great possibility of being misunderstood.

Yu Chengmin is too beautiful, not only admired by boys, but also confessed by girls, he is the type that kills both men and women.

"So, what does Ando-san want to talk to me about?"

Sometimes the beginning is the hardest, looking for words, Ando Nozomi put together such a sentence, "...a request that may trouble you, but I hope it can help me."

"Tell me?"

"I'm very confused about my own existence." After a pause, the gentle voice trembled a little, "I've been 'playing' a lady from a famous family, and I don't have a real sense of the identity of 'Ando Nozomi'. Be who you really are, but I don't know how to live other than to maintain the status quo."

It’s okay if you don’t think about it, but when you think about it deeply, your emotions will flow out like a newly dug spring.

Disgusted with life so far; terrified of my past self; nervous and… hopeful about redemption.

This is the first time I have such strong emotions, the first time I know what it means to be alive.

It's not Ando Nozomi, she is just herself now - the self who feels confused about life and can only cling to the role of Ando Nozomi.

"Ah."

There is no surprise or other emotional fluctuations on the beautiful face, and the moist and moist jade-like eyes are also flat, conveying a message of 'everything is expected'.

She wasn't surprised that this person had seen through her acting skills long ago, but she felt the oppressive feeling of being the sole superior, on the contrary, she took it for granted.

The one who was puzzled was... "Don't you think I'm making trouble for no reason?" After all, it's a private matter, not the duty of the student council president.

The crisp voice like a silver bell echoed in her ears, stirring her heartstrings for a long time.

"Flocking is the instinct of living things."

Instantly comprehended what the other party wanted to express—she was born as a human being, and if she couldn't reach her, she would naturally turn to others for help. This was instinct, not cowardice.

Vocabulary popped up involuntarily in my mind.

gentle.

The girl's expression on the opposite side has nothing to do with gentleness, and she can't even touch the edge of gentleness.

But that's how she felt, or she hoped that Yu Chengcouu's words would be an expression of tenderness to her.

----

"It's getting late, I'll take you home."

It turned out that before I knew it, the hour hand in the clock stopped at 7.

Most of the time, she was the one talking, and Yucheng Minato agreed.

She didn't doubt the other party's strength just because she was a girl, and she didn't refuse because of etiquette. After all, that kind of thing happened, and it was really inappropriate for her to go home by herself. Besides, Yu Chengmin hadn't given her an answer yet.

After reporting the address, the other party suddenly spoke abruptly, "I can help you find the answer."

The joy came so fast that she was caught off guard.

"President, thank you!" Back bent into a beautiful arc, the girl bowed while sincerely thanking.

"So, what should I call you?"

After receiving the question mark from Yu Chengchou, she suddenly realized...

Yes, what should she be called if her name is not Nozomi Ando?

Seeming to see through her confusion, Yu Chengmo slightly parted her cherry lips, her voice reverberated in the air, and rippled in the lake of her heart.

"Ming, can you?"

No, this name doesn't suit me at all... "It doesn't suit me."

"Yeah, I know it's not suitable."

"Huh? Then why this name?"

"It is precisely because it is completely different from your nature that you have to take this name."

Under the moonlight, the girl's skin reflected the bright light, like a ceramic statue, absolutely beautiful.

The picture in front of her shocked her vision, and then she heard herself respond with an 'um'.

Thinking in a trance, the reason...is not important anymore.

There is nothing wrong with accepting it.

From today onwards, she is Ming.
