"Afternoon Sunshine"

Part1

midsummer.

Ryuzaki Sakura is currently busy with the upcoming graduation ceremony of Youth Academy tomorrow.

In fact, she was also a student who was about to graduate this year.According to the unwritten rules in Japan, there is no need to decorate the auditorium by yourself, and you only need to clearly explain these tasks to the students.

It's just that he will come back to attend tomorrow's graduation ceremony.So Tatsuzaki Sakura still asked to stay and help.

Putting down the heavy decorations on his hands, Sakura took out a hand roll from his pocket to wipe off his sweat, and looked at the sunlight shining on the windows of the auditorium. It is summer now, and the sun at noon is always very hot and dazzling. But The kind of brightness penetrating through the glass window still gave Sakurano a very trance feeling.

She stood there blankly, looking at the halo projected by the sun on the ground, as if she had returned to the Shinkansen train three years ago.The bright sunlight and the glass of the car windows intersect each other, refracting fine light continuously, accompanied by the roar of the train running in the ears.It slowly drove into the depths of memory, that period of time that only belonged to youth.

It was also summer at that time, and it was Ryuzaki Sakura who was about to enter junior high school for the first year. On the train she was going to watch a tennis match, she accidentally met Echizen Ryoma who was arrogant and flamboyant at that time. He was lazy at the time. He said to the high school student who was a head taller than him, "You are not good enough!" This sentence touched the heart of Ryuzaki Sakurano, who was only 12 years old at the time, for the first time.

Then, Ryuzaki Sakura found that her encounter with Echizen Ryoma was not just a chance encounter, they met in a middle school, although he didn't seem to recognize her when they met for the second time.

However, at a certain time, there is a kind of doom, which has already begun.

Part2

Ryuzaki Sakura has always been a quiet girl since she entered Qingxue. Every day, she has nothing but to do with her junior high school studies.That is to go to the tennis court with my friend Pengxiang after school every day to watch those seniors play.

The school team of Youth Academy is the first and second seed team in Tokyo and even in Japan.All the players have superb skills and unique personalities.

But in the tennis club at that time, the only thing that could really attract Sakura's attention was the boy named Echizen Ryoma, who always liked to wear a white hat, and challenged everyone who was older than him with a vigorous figure. Senior, unexpectedly, his strength is indeed surprisingly high.

Ryuzaki Sakura began to join the women's tennis club in order to worship his skills, imagining that one day she could play tennis with the same confidence as him, but she didn't know that her original pure admiration for Echizen Ryoma had long been Time has passed, and it has become a secret liking.

Ryuzaki Sakura began to appear frequently on the side of the tennis court, watched every match of Echizen Ryoma, and cheered for him. This kind of motive and idea are very pure, but in the eyes of some seniors. Ryuzaki said to Echizen, It is definitely not just as simple as the relationship between classmates.

As for such a relationship, Ryuzaki Sakura didn't really understand her own intentions until after that incident.

Sakura still remembers that time when she walked out from the door of the bookstore, the originally clear sky had unknowingly turned leaden gray, and not long after, a heavy rain came as promised.Sakura stood helplessly at the door of the bookstore. She didn't bring an umbrella, so she could only watch the rain pouring down from the roof of the bookstore like a curtain. The sporadic raindrops hit her body, giving her a slight coolness. shoulders, looking forward to the rain can pass quickly.

And at this time, Echizen Ryoma walked out from the entrance of the tennis shop opposite the bookstore with an umbrella. He saw Sakura standing alone at the door of the bookstore. His thin body seemed to be trembling a little. Such a scene made Echizen Ryoma couldn't help sighing, held up his umbrella and walked towards the opposite bookstore.

"Hey, Ryuzaki, don't you have an umbrella?" Echizen Ryoma walked to Sakurano's side and asked coolly.

"Ah, yes... yes, why is Ryoma-kun here?" Seeing Ryoma suddenly, Ryuzaki Sakura was quite surprised.

"That's it!" Echizen Ryoma leaned his umbrella to Sakurano's side, "Then let's go together."

Ryuzaki Sakura never thought that one day he could walk into the rain with the person he admired under the same umbrella. Such a scene was as unreal as a dream. On the way back, Sakura was very quiet. Talking, only the sound of rain hitting the umbrella came from my ears.

The umbrella propped above the head will be more or less inconvenient for two people. Even in the inside of the umbrella, Ryuzaki Sakura can still feel the coolness coming from all directions, but she can't bear to let it go. Ryoma was in the rain, and she was so conflicted that she didn't know what to do, so she just kept walking while holding her shoulders.

And after Echizen Ryoma noticed Sakurano's small movement, he moved the dark color and leaned the umbrella towards her, and after sending Sakura back home safely, Echizen Ryoma realized that half of his shoulders were soaked .

"Really." Echizen Ryoma shook his head and continued walking towards home.

After Ryuzaki Sakura entered Ru's house, she found that her heart was still beating irregularly, and the feeling in her heart was like the weather that was still raining outside, damp and gloomy. The breath of Ryoma around her just now seemed to still wrap her. Keep her from breathing.

Ryuzaki Sakura walked in the bathroom and washed her face with cold water. The cold feeling made her wake up a lot, and she suddenly realized that she really didn't just worship Echizen Ryoma.

Part4

The next half day passed quickly, and when school was over, Tomoka took Sakurano to the tennis court again, and Horio, who was on the side, squinted his eyes again, and said strangely, "Hey, you two are not tennis clubs. Yes, what are you doing here all the time?"

At this time, Pengxiang would always say back in a hurry, "I can't do it? I'll help Ryoma SAMA cheer!"

Then the two started arguing.

Ryuzaki Sakura found a relatively quiet place by the tennis court, and looked for the figure in the white hat. But he couldn't find it anywhere in Nuoda's tennis court. Sakura felt very strange, and then heard behind him A familiar voice came.

"You blocked me."

It was Echizen Ryoma's voice.

Sakura turned her head and saw Ryoma looking at her helplessly, and then she realized that the place where she was standing just now was the gate to the tennis court, so Sakura's face turned red again in embarrassment.

When Echizen Ryoma walked into the tennis court, he was late for a lot of time, and he was sent to the playground as a matter of course. Ryuzaki Sakura who saw it on the side felt that he was more or less at fault for this incident, so he ran to buy a PONTA Waiting for Echizen Ryoma's run to finish.

On the other side, Tomoka and Horio were exhausted from arguing. Tomoka unconsciously saw Sakura holding a PONTA as if she was waiting for Ryoma. Her gaze paused for a few seconds and then shifted away.

Echizen Ryoma was looking for a drink after running, Ryuzaki Sakurano touched Ryoma's arm with the still cold PONTA, the piercing cold feeling made Ryoma's heart constrict for a moment.

Echizen Ryoma glanced at Sakurano, seemed to know her intentions, he took the PONTA, pulled the tab, and drank it in big gulps.Ryuzaki Sakura watched him silently beside him, this kind of scene had a different kind of romance in the twilight.

I just hope that time can slowly pass away at this moment, so Ryuzaki Sakura will feel satisfied.

Because of this feeling, even in the coming autumn, there is still a warm feeling in the end of summer.

Part5

Ryuzaki Sakurano and Echizen Ryoma are not in the same class.

But often, when Sakura is in class, she will have an illusion, as if the person sitting next to her is Echizen Ryoma, who is sleeping quietly on the table, and the tiny sunlight shining on him makes people feel cold at ordinary times In fact, Ryoma also has a warm side.

It's just that often at this time, Ryuzaki Sakura will be immersed in her own imagination, and she will keep looking at the boy who is not Ryoma next to her, until the boy's face turns red quickly when she sees him, and coughs Coughing as a reminder, Sakura just wanted to come back to herself as if waking up from a dream, and said sorry to the boy repeatedly.

Oops, what a shame!

Every time Sakurano thought of this scene, her face would turn red like a newly ripened apple.

But recently, Tomoka's words have become less than before. Even Horio subconsciously said in the spare time of tennis club practice, "Hey, why didn't the [-]th girl who always talked loudly come today?" Then Katsuro and the others would say The black thread looked at Horio with a 'swearing' expression.

And Sakura who was standing by the tennis court suddenly realized that Xiaopeng hadn't been to the tennis club for a long time. Every time after school, she always excused that she had younger siblings to take care of at home, and then patted Sakura on the shoulder and said, " Ryoma SAMA, you have to cheer her up!"

Sakura felt embarrassed for a while.

In fact, no one knows how Pengxiang felt when she left school. Well, she admitted that she is a very cheerful and boring person, but one day, she found that she and her best friend fell in love with the same person, and she I really don't know what to do.

If she says she likes Ryoma SAMA, no one will believe it, who will believe that when she speaks loudly and sees a handsome guy
