[SD] Late Summer

"Fujima, why don't we wander the world."

she said so.

Tengzhen looked at her with burning eyes, and suddenly, he took her hand and said seriously: "Okay."

Tengzhen pulled Ruosang like that, and ran out of Xiangyang's school gate, passed the long ramp, turned the street corner, and walked through the park... The scenery that is constantly receding is their youth Youth is the purest and truest emotion in their hearts.

If it can go on like this, it will be fine...

The sea of ​​Kanagawa gradually appeared in front of my eyes, the rain in the sky seemed to have stopped, and there was a golden light pouring down from the high clouds, sprinkled on the deep blue sea, floating with the waves.

Ruo Sang didn't know how long they had been running. Fuji was really an athlete, but she was already panting. If she hadn't been training with her younger brother Rukawa Kaede, she probably wouldn't be able to run anymore.

The two leaned over the beach, panting for breath.When their eyes met, they looked at each other and smiled, and all of a sudden, they all sat down on the beach.

"I...never...have never run...so many...roads..." Ruo Sang said with difficulty.

Fujima stared at the sea in front of him with a warm smile on his face.

"And I... have never done such a thing..."

"Then you... have you ever thought about doing it...in...in your heart...inside?"

"Well...it seems, no."

"Cheat... deceive people...!"

"Really," Fujima turned his head to look at her, "It's probably because of you, Matsuba, that you want to do this."

"Is...is that so..." Ruosang lowered her head and didn't look at him again.

"When I was young, when my father took me to the beach, he once told me, 'Kenji, you want to have everything from a young age, you can live a better life than others, you can touch things that ordinary people can't touch, you can Receive a better education than others, and what you can get in the future is unimaginable and unattainable by others. But Kenji, all of this comes at a price, have you...be prepared and awakened?'. "

At that time, Fujima was only five or six years old, and he didn't know what life was and what the world was.However, when he saw such a vast and boundless sea in front of him, his heart was already deeply shocked.

So he answered his father, "Yes."

"It turns out that Fuji-san-kun, you... want to be like the ocean..." Ruo Sang looked at the vast ocean in front of him, "My words, my words just want to be a shell on the seashore, waiting to be met by others." Yes, it’s okay, you can see the sea all the time.”

She stood up and walked towards the ocean step by step.

"Fujima-kun, come on—"

she shouted with all her might.

Fuji really looked at her in surprise, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"If you say Fujisama-kun, you can definitely do it. You can definitely...you can become a person like the sea."

So, let me be a shell on the seashore, so ordinary and so ordinary, but I can see you anytime and anywhere.

It's just... even though we are so close, there is a distance that can never be crossed...

Tengzhen stepped forward, only to see Ruo Sang looking into the distance with a relieved smile on his face.

And he, and he wants to say:

I am sorry.

I'm sorry, Ruosan.

For them, youth comes too late, but growth comes so early.

That day, the bleak sunshine dragged their shadows on the beach, and never let them go for a long time.This is probably their twilight youth, without passion and impulsiveness, without confusion and persistence. At that moment, the youth is gone and the years are drifting away.

"Teng Zhen-kun, do you still remember the sentence I asked you once? 'Does Fuji-sama-kun like something or someone?', but you never answered me, it's really...too cunning," Ruo Sang smiled at him, the clear voice was intertwined with the waves not far away, vague and far away, but dispersed with the wind in an instant.

"So, no matter what, please do something you like...Fuji Masaki, please, like basketball."

Please, like basketball.

The sea breeze blew away the hair on his forehead, and the damp breath hit his face directly, hitting his eyebrows and eyes.He stared at the young girl in front of him, his eyes slightly moist.

"Okay." Fujima nodded.

Back at school, it was already late.The tumi flowers on the roadside bloom quietly in the dim twilight, and spring is really coming to an end.

It's time for flowers to bloom.

Ruo Sang knew that everything was over.

Walking into the classroom, there was no one there except...

"You two still know to come back?!" Nakagawa Laiyue leaned on the window sill, narrowed her eyes and looked up and down back and forth between Ruo Sang and Fujima.

"Well, because I'm here to get my schoolbag." Fuji really said innocently.

"Really! If you want to skip class, you have to tell me in advance. Teacher, can I help you if there is anything!" Nakagawa Laiyue gave them a dissatisfied look, "But I really didn't expect you two to be like this Do it, teacher, I am really... so relieved!"

Saying that, Nakagawa Laiyue patted them on the shoulder heavily.

Ruo Sang: "..."

"Well, it's getting late anyway, you two go back, go back." Nakagawa said and walked out of the classroom, muttering "youth is so beautiful, so beautiful~"

"Song Yu-san, you go back first." Teng Zhen picked up the schoolbag on the seat and said to Ruo Sang.

"how about you?"

"I still have to go to the basketball club... After all, I missed the training..." After Fujima finished speaking, he watched her silently for a few seconds, then turned and went out the door.

Ruo Sang looked at his watch, and quietly sorted out the things on the table.Then, he also walked out of the classroom.

In youth, I have never been persistent for anyone, nor have I stayed for anyone.Are we too late to meet?

If so, when should we meet to make it possible?

In the silent classroom, Ruo Sang raised his head, the tears in his eyes silently flowed back to the depths of his heart.

No matter how you look at it, they shouldn't meet.

The passage of time day by day is the most ruthless.

But Ruo Sang seems to have blurred all concepts, the world stopped all rotation for her.

It wasn't until... the first cicadas chirping outside the window that aroused some thoughts in her.

It turned out that it was going to be summer.

The last day of May was unbelievably hot.Ruo Sang opened the door of the house, and saw his mother Miho Matsuba was already sitting on the sofa at home.

"Mom...it's so early today..."

After entering the door and changing his shoes, Ruo Sang hesitated for a while, but still walked towards the stairs.

"Wo-san..." Matsuba Miho stopped her daughter.

"what?"

"Well...it's nothing..." She immediately shook her head, signaling Ruo Sang to go upstairs.

But Ruo Sang stopped, and then walked to his mother's side.

"Mom, you... are going to America soon..."

"Yeah, it's going to be another ten days or so... It's going to be a long time this time."

"Hmm... I was thinking... Maybe... I can also... go with my mother... If there is still time..." Ruo Sang took a deep breath and finished speaking intermittently, in her heart, I don't know what is missing.

Sure enough, what she cares more about is her own life.

Xiaofeng and everything are all excuses.

Myself, that sucks!

"What?!" Matsuba Miho couldn't help but doubt her own ears, "You... want to go to America with me?!"

"Ah, it's really too late...it's okay, mom will just let me say it..." Ruo Sang smiled slightly, but couldn't hide the tears in his eyes.

"Ruosang, you... did something happen?" Miho Matsuba had never seen her daughter like this.She was so sad, so reluctant, but tried her best to cover up and hide it.

What exactly is going on?

In Matsuba Miho's impression, Waka-san is rarely even depressed.She rarely says she cares about anyone or anything, but it is also rare that she has such strong emotions.

"No, Mom, really not." Ruosang shook his head, but almost couldn't stop the tears in his eyes, so he turned around and ran upstairs immediately.

Matsuba Miho looked at such an abnormal and sad daughter, and suddenly felt that she seemed to have done something wrong...

She has always regarded Ruo Sang as an adult, almost never asking about her affairs, and fully respecting her personal wishes and choices, and rarely interfering and sometimes even not paying attention.

Matsuba Miho has always believed that Waka-san can handle her own affairs well, and indeed, in the past 16 years, Matsuba Miho has never worried about her.She felt that her daughter might have grown up, or at least not far away.

Therefore, she always told herself, "If there is no problem with Sang, she has always been so mature and sensible", and she was so relieved to bury her head in her life and career, and almost never stopped to look at her. Look at my daughter who is only 16 years old after all.

So, in Ruo Sang's carefree and peaceful 16 years of life, what made her so sad, yet so powerless?

Miho Matsuba found out that she didn't know anything about it...

On weekends, according to the past, Ruo Sang will always spare some time to practice with his younger brother Rukawa Feng, and this time is no exception.

Rukawa Kaede just kept repeating dribbles, layups, dribbles, and layups.

But out of the corner of his eye, he saw an expression his sister had never had before. Although she showed very little, she couldn't hide it from him.

Picking up the ball, Rukawa Feng walked over.

"Sister, you have something to say."

Ruo Sang raised his head and looked at his already very tall brother.

The thin bangs on his forehead blocked his eyes, but they couldn't hide the burning light and concerned expression inside.

"Xiaofeng..." Ruosang smiled at him, but even she found it very reluctant.

Rukawa Feng looked at her from a high position, quietly waiting for her to speak.

"Xiaofeng... If I go to the United States...you..." The words came to her lips, but it was so difficult, she didn't even have the courage and strength to speak.

For a long time of silence, only the early summer wind, with the damp breath of the sea not far away, blows over their youthful faces, leaving the rustling sound among the branches.

"Sister, if you are sad, you should be sad." Rukawa Feng hugged the basketball in his hand, then looked at the blue sea beside the court, "Sister, you go to America. Don't worry about me, I will go too .soon."

At that moment, Ruo Sang couldn't help but burst into tears, choking with sobs.

It turned out that it wasn't that Xiaofeng was lucky to have her as an older sister, but that she was lucky to have Xiaofeng as her younger brother.

Yes, Xiaofeng has his own life, no matter where he goes, he has never left basketball.

Is it true that once you have something you love in your life, you will not be lonely?So, those people she loves deeply, even if she can't be by their side forever, please take the things you love and move forward along the way.

And Ruo Sang, maybe from now on, her life will no longer be full, but since then, it has another meaning.

The author has something to say:
