Cherish the time

When the two children were obsessed with the chessboard, a light rain began to fall outside the house.

The raindrops fall on the ground, moistening everything; the rain dances the branches and leaves, emerald green; the rain hits the water surface, causing ripples in circles.

Akiko Toya let out a small "ah" and began to tidy up in an orderly manner.

Needless to say, the clothes hanging outside, the doors and windows must be closed to prevent rainwater from drifting in.

Taya Yukio glanced at the sky outside the house, and remembered that the weather forecast last night seemed to say that there seemed to be a heavy rainfall affected by the typhoon tonight.

He thought for a while, then put down the half-played chess record, got up and explained it to Akiko Taya in detail.

At that time, the two were ending a round of fighting.This round started with Shinto Hikari Kuroko, who used his first hand, Youxing, to brutally abuse a certain green-haired boy who disagreed with his views.

Ta Yaliang was so angry that his teeth were itching, he just wanted to grab the hand of the man opposite the chess piece and bite it hard, and torture him a hundred times a hundred times!But Naihe—the skills are not as good as people...

The picture of Xiaoliang pouting and starting to collect the chess pieces obviously pleased Shinto Hikaru. The boy said "Thank you for the concession" triumphantly, laughing until all eight teeth were shining white.

"Xiao Guang..." Zuo Wei was a little bit dissatisfied with his arrogance, "Overwhelming people with chess strength..."

Hearing his words, Shinto Mitsucai came to his senses belatedly. He accidentally regarded Xiaoliang as the tough and powerful adult man in his previous life, and he did not hold back when playing chess, and killed the opponent viciously. A piece of armor is not left behind.

...Just to express the bad breath in my heart, which was abandoned by Taya when I was a child.

——But this is wrong, this Tayara is not Bita Yaryu.

——Besides, that Taya Ryo didn't do anything wrong...

The blond boy unconsciously put away his exaggerated smile, lowered his brows and eyes, and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth. He was clearly still smiling, but there was an indescribable sense of bleakness and sadness.

Ta Yaliang, who was busy putting away the chess pieces, raised his head inadvertently, and saw the boy on the opposite side staring at the chessboard, wondering what he was thinking.

He is still young—even though his mind is a little precocious, he can't understand the loneliness that surrounds him. He can only think about why this guy suddenly feels down... Could it be that he remembered something unhappy? ?

The room suddenly fell into a strange silence, leaving only the sound of rain hitting the paper door from time to time.

Seeing Xiaoguang's rather familiar reaction, Zuo Wei's eyes showed a little sadness.

…when playing chess, during class, when walking on the road, when playing in the park…

…When talking to Mingming, when seeing myself, when playing chess with myself, when chatting with Xiaoliang…

Xiaoguang will always suddenly fall into his world alone, showing that nostalgic and reminiscing look, so that he can always clearly feel that there is a deep gap between Xiaoguang and this world.This gap makes me feel...

Hikaru...doesn't think he belongs in this world.

Sato quietly looked at Shinto Hikari's side face.

Although the time we spent together was very short, he always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when staying with Xiao Guang. ...As if, this is not their first acquaintance...nor is it the first time...to get along for such a long time.

He likes Xiaoguang very much, and is very grateful to the gods for letting himself be attached to Xiaoguang.

But Xiaoguang...

"Xiaoguang? ’ he cried softly.

"kindness? ’ The blond boy subconsciously replied, ‘What’s wrong? 』

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Ta Yaliang looking at him worriedly, his pair of thick emerald green eyes were fixed on his eyes, his face was full of worries and inquiries.

Shinto Hikari's heart softened into a mess.

When Akiko Toya came over, she saw the scene of two teenagers looking at each other and smiling.

The brows and eyes of the two teenagers softened by their smiles looked extra cute and cute under the light.

"Xiaoguang, it's raining outside, why don't you stay here tonight?" Seeing that the two get along well, Akiko Taya smiled, "The weather forecast says there may be a typhoon tonight , it’s not safe to go out.”

Shinto Hikaru thought for a while, then got up and said, "I'll call my mother first."

I told my mother that I might be staying at Taya's house, and after being told old sayings like "be polite", "go to bed early", "don't be picky eaters", I handed over the microphone to the waiter Taya Akiko.

Taya Ryo stood next to him, listening to Taya Akiko there and saying "It's no trouble", "You're welcome", and "You're very kind" and other greetings, the shining eyes are look forward to the light.

Shinto Hikari knew that this guy had never slept with a friend before, and he didn't break his excited expectation, but changed the subject and talked about something else.

"What middle school do you want to go to?" Shindo Guangming asked knowingly.

Ta Yaliang thought for a while, "It should be the King of the Sea...Father wants me to go there."

"Ah... Neptune." Hikari Shinto pretended to be slightly surprised, "It's amazing."

Stared at by Shinto's slightly admiring golden eyes, Taya Ryo looked away uncomfortably, with a faint pink color floating on his cheeks, "...Not really."

"Sea King is the best middle school in this area..." Shindo Hikaru thought for a while, although with his current grades, there is no problem in being admitted to Sea King, but——"I still want to go to Haze."

"Oh?" Ta Yaliang was a little confused, "But with Xiaoguang's chess strength, there is absolutely no problem with King Hai."

Neptune's go club is quite powerful, and the school has given them a lot of preferential treatment. The most attractive one is that students can be admitted to Neptune without examination because of their outstanding Go skills.

"...Well! Although it is true!" Shinto Hikari struggled for a while, feeling that he was a guy with only outstanding chess skills in Xiaoliang's eyes, "But I want to read Haze more!"

"Eh? Why?" Ta Yaliang asked in puzzlement.

"Hmm... probably because the elite school like Neptune is not suitable for me." Shindo Hikaru scratched his head with a smile, "I, I still hope to play chess in an unrestricted place."
