In the end, Kirihara decided to put all his feelings behind him, at least not until the final exams were over.Maybe he was just escaping, but this would give him more time to think clearly.

In addition, Katori and Ito acted as if nothing had happened, and got along as before, as if there was no confession at all.This is their tacit understanding, and it is also the tacit understanding of Kirihara and them.

No one is going to let this matter be known to others, so let this matter become a secret and let it settle down over the years.

Probably because the final exam was approaching, the atmosphere in the class became tense.Katori was always in a daze from time to time, and occasionally went to look at the empty seat. She was always thinking about how Fujiwara was doing in Canada.

It should be the enemy, but she is always worried, but I don't know if Fujiwara is the same as her.

The time for lunch was still the same, with Marui bothering them, but since that day, Nioh would also have lunch with them every day, and every time Katori asked Nioh why, Nioh would cleverly avoid it, which made Katori very unhappy, but it has been a long time , I don't care too much.

That's just how people get used to it.

I just don't know if Kirihara Chi also walks with Katori Ninghui, is it a habit.

After the final exams, it's winter vacation.

After the final exam, Katori goes to Kirihara.

"How was your English test?" Katori asked as soon as she saw Kirihara.

Kirihara scratched his hair habitually, and smiled embarrassingly, "It's okay, it just doesn't seem to be very difficult." After hearing this, Katoro smiled and said, "That's good, otherwise I will doubt my ability of."

"Thank you very much for making up lessons." While talking, Kirihara bowed.Katori was taken aback, and quickly waved his hands, "There's no need for this, it's just a matter of little effort anyway."

"Katori, are you free tomorrow?" Kirihara asked suddenly.

Katori nodded.

"Then go somewhere with me tomorrow."

"it is good."

The next day, morning.

After hearing the alarm clock, Katori turned off the alarm clock, turned on the phone, then got into the warm bed, rubbed the quilt, and continued to sleep.Just a few seconds later, a melodious blue Danube came out from the phone speaker.

Katori pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, fumbled for a while on the bedside table and got the phone. She kept her eyes closed and pressed the answer button directly, "Hello, who is it?" There was still deep sleepiness in her voice.

"That, Katori, it's me, Kirihara Akaya."

Katori was startled, then sat up abruptly, she lost sleepiness completely when she heard Kirihara's voice, and her voice returned to normal: "Ah, sorry, I just woke up."

After Kirihara answered "It's okay" habitually, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, because after all, he was the one who disturbed people's dreams, so he should be the one who should say "I'm sorry". "I'm downstairs at your house." He said suddenly.

After hearing what he said, Katori was startled, and quickly climbed off the bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains. She looked down from upstairs and saw the boy standing on the opposite avenue with his head bowed.

"Wait a minute, I'll be down right away!" After Katori finished speaking, she immediately hung up the phone, so fast that she didn't even have time for Kirihara to say "It's okay, don't worry".

Five minutes later, Katori appeared in front of Kirihara, still panting slightly.

"This is definitely the fastest grooming I've done in all these years of my life." Katori put one hand on his waist, stuck out his tongue, and said.

"Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry." The young man standing opposite her smiled at her, then suddenly stretched out his hand, knocking down the pile of hair next to her ear.

Katori didn't react, but stiffened her body reflexively and remained motionless.

Kirihara didn't notice her unnaturalness, but said, "Let's go."

"Okay." Katori nodded and followed behind him.

After 10 minutes, they walked to the station, waited for a while, and the bus came.

After getting on the bus, he found that there was only one vacant seat left, and Kirihara gave his seat to Katori in a gentlemanly manner.Katori raised his head, looked at the boy standing in front of him, and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to sit?"

But the boy just scratched his hair with one hand, and said with a silly smile: "Katori, you are a girl."

Katori puffed her cheeks and murmured, "That's not the point, okay..."

Until the destination they were going to reach, the boy stood in front of the girl, holding on to the railing above, and from time to time he would lower his head to look at the girl who was looking out the window, his green eyes sparkled with stars, very beautiful.

After getting out of the car, Katori was taken aback by looking at the scenery in front of him.

She has not been to the seaside a few times, and she has never seen the sea in winter.

The winter sun is very light, not strong, sprinkled on the indigo sea, making the sea a little shimmering.The sea is calm, without any big undulations.The sea stretches to infinity and connects with the sky.

Perhaps because the season is winter, this piece of sea looks barren and bleak, but in the eyes of girls, it is a different kind of beauty, which is the opposite of vitality, but it can make people escape from the edge of despair.

"It's beautiful!" Katori ran to the seaside with open arms, and the sea breeze was blowing, carrying a salty smell coldly.

The boy walked up to her, looked at the sea in front of him at this time, and quietly began to say: "When I told you yesterday, I didn't even think about where I was going. In fact, I saw you this morning. I only thought of coming here when I was there. The sea in Kanagawa has always been beautiful."

Katori looked at the young man beside her in surprise, but the young man did not turn his head to look at her, but continued on his own, "Probably facing this sea, I have the courage to speak out." The young man paused After a pause, he continued, "A few days ago, when Ito confessed to you, Senior Nioh and I saw it."

The pupils contracted, and Katori was too surprised to speak.

The young man's tone was very calm, as if he was telling a story about someone else: "It was a coincidence that day, the tennis club was rarely released early, and it was because of this that I saw it. Later, Senior Nioh told me that if If I don’t say anything, I may never have a chance again. He also said that I’ll lose my temper when I encounter relationship problems. But I will be afraid, afraid of being rejected by you like Ito, and afraid that even my friends will be rejected after telling you It can't be done..." The voice stopped abruptly, and the boy stopped, probably because the girl beside him didn't respond, he turned to look at her, only to find that the girl lowered her head, looking at the beach under her feet, without saying a word. hair.

"Katori, you—" the words were interrupted as soon as they started, "I'm fine." Xiang made a teasing smile, but the smile seemed a bit forced.

The boy suddenly grabbed her shoulders and turned her around.

Face to face.

"Katori, I think, I like you." The young man looked at him straight, his words were uncertain, but his tone was firm.

"Then, let's be together." Katori said very softly, but it was still heard clearly in the boy's ears.

The boy gently embraced her in his arms.

For a long time, the girl's low sobbing sound radiated in the air.

"Promise me that you won't cry in the future."

"it is good."

From now on, I won't cry anymore.

after.
