Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

Latest website:

A sour feeling rose from his stomach.

Strong, uncontrollable, rushing up the throat.

"Well--!"

A muffled hum sounded in the living room.

The next second.

Asami's skirt, which had been snuggling up to Sayu's side to listen to her talk from the middle, suddenly became filthy.

"Sorry...skirt...!"

Even though his face was extremely pale, he still prioritized worrying about soiling other people's clothes.

Facing Sayu like this, Asami seemed to turn a blind eye to the dirt on her skirt. She didn't move at all and just patted her back gently with her hand.

"It's okay, Sayu-chan... Just wash your clothes and everything and it'll be fine, but if Sayu-chan doesn't vomit it out now, it's absolutely impossible."

"Thank you... ugh..."

As if recalling the previous scene, Sayu, who had just relaxed a little, vomited on the carpet again.

After glancing at Sayu who was leaning against Asami, Kato Yusuke silently went to the bathroom to get a rag and took a glass of water from a mug in the kitchen.

"This piece is new, use this to wipe your clothes."

Yusuke said as he handed the rag to Asami, then handed the mug to Sayu, and started cleaning the carpet.

"Thanks……"

"It doesn't have to be like this."

After drinking the water, Sayu breathed a sigh of relief, his expression relaxed slightly, and then he turned his attention to Asami.

"Sorry, Asami, I'll get you the laundry."

With that said, she immediately led Asami towards the closet.

Considering that the two of them had to change clothes next, Kato Yusuke said hello and walked to the balcony alone to give them some time to clean up.

From Yi Sa's visit to now.

Unconsciously, night has fallen.

Looking up, a cold jade bow is hanging high in the night sky.

Thinking back to what Sayu said just now, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart.

The biggest barrier between people is their inability to empathize.

He couldn't be as sad as the girl, nor could he bear the pain for her.

Looking back at the drawn curtains, Yusuke took out his mobile phone from his pocket and started to make a call.

First, I called Katsu Nakamura.

After a few seconds of waiting, the call was quickly connected.

"Hello, Kato?"

"Good evening, Mr. Nakamura."

Kato Yusuke went straight to the topic, "Sorry for the sudden call, I have something to tell you."

"Something? What's the matter?"

"Starting from the day after tomorrow, I want to take some time off."

"A period of time?" Nakamura Masaru paused and continued to ask: "Let me tell you, what is this ambiguous statement about? At least explain the time and reason clearly!"

"The Evil God"

"I have some things at home that need to be dealt with. If I have time... a month will do..."

"Huh? A month? There must be a limit to joking."

Katsu Nakamura interrupted him and said: "Besides, you are still the student council president. Even the sports festival will be over in a month. What are you going to do?"

"Then how long can you approve it?" Yusuke asked thoughtfully.

"You'll be given up to two weeks, and you'll have to have a valid reason."

"I have something going on at home."

"You just said this, so what is it? Is your family sick?"

"No, it's just that this matter is important to me."

"It's very important, but I can't tell the teacher. Is this what you want to say?"

"Um."

Nakamura Katsu couldn't help but let out a sigh, and said helplessly: "...Understood, then it will only be two weeks. The reason is just physical discomfort, right?"

"Well, thank you." After hearing this, Kato Yusuke nodded and thanked him seriously.

"There's no need for this. You'll be back when the time comes."

"knew."

"That's it, remember not to do anything dangerous."

Nakamura Masaru hung up the call impatiently.

Yusuke smiled while looking at the phone screen, and then started to make the second call.

After a brief blind tone...

"Hello……?"

Yinglili's voice came from the receiver.

"Good evening, are you busy?"

"You're taking a shower, what's wrong?"

"I can't go to the event in Ikebukuro tomorrow, I'm sorry."

"ha--!?"

The other party's voice suddenly rose twice, and accompanied by the sound of rushing water, he seemed to stand up from the bath.

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by this? Didn't you say it well before?"

"Well, I'm sorry, I encountered something, including having to take leave from school." Kato Yusuke explained in an apologetic tone.

"I actually said that the school also needs to ask for leave..."

Yinglili was stunned for a moment, and then asked carefully: "Is it something very important...?"

"yes."

"Aha……"

A soft echo floated into my ears.

The other end of the phone suddenly became quiet. For a while, the only sound was the girl's weak breathing, as if she was thinking seriously about something.

After a few seconds, Yinglili said: "I know, I will take care of things here, you... just go and do your work."

"Well, thank you."

"Well...after all, I am the founder of the club, so it is my necessary duty to help you solve your problems."

"Then it's up to you."

"You don't need to ask me to do it, I will do it, just leave it to me."

After ending the call, Asami and the others also changed their clothes and called Yusuke Kato back to the room on the balcony.

Sayu changed into the uniform from when they first met, while Asami changed into a home clothes that belonged to Sayu.

Saw him walking into the room.

Asami asked casually: "Katozai, were you on the phone outside just now?"

"Well, I contacted the school."

"Hey..." the other party responded vaguely. Although it seemed to be normal on the surface, you could still feel the uneasiness in the other party's heart through the way he glanced at Sayu from time to time.

Yusuke then turned his attention to Sayu, and the girl gave him a soft smile.

While he was on the phone, the two women seemed to chat about something. Sayu's mood obviously calmed down a lot, and he took the initiative and said, "Then, let's continue."

"Are you okay?" Asami asked in a gentle voice after hearing this.

"Well, I've calmed down."

"That's it."

After being quiet for a while, Sayu gently pressed his chest with his hand, took a deep breath slowly, and then continued speaking.

"After what happened with Yuko..."

…

After Yuko committed suicide, I fell into an abyss of sadness and despair.

Not only that, as I was in the same place when she jumped off the building, I became the first object of suspicion.

School teachers, principals and police all came to question me many times.

Being suspected of killing my friend made me feel exhausted. Fortunately, my mother agreed to my request not to go to school temporarily because of this incident.

Over the next few days, the media began to swarm my home like crazy.

Rumors in such a small place always spread very quickly.

I, who was already a redundant person, brought trouble home.

My mother also felt helpless about this.

My brother, who was always very busy, started to come home every day, and while comforting my hysterical mother, he took the time to come and see me.

Because of this incident, the three people in the Ogihara family became more and more tired.

Then one day, like a dam that burst, our family relationship finally collapsed.

"It's all your fault...!"

Mom stared at me fiercely and said, this is a line she often talks about.

Although I don't know the details, it seems that my mother divorced my father because of giving birth to me.

"Why do other people's suicides torture us... Do you really have friends? You obviously don't have any feelings at all!"

"……sorry."

Faced with my mother's emotional catharsis, I could only choose to apologize, and I was used to apologizing. As long as I endured it, she would fall asleep contentedly because she was exhausted from scolding her.

However, my mother didn’t know what happened that day, and suddenly she opened her eyes wide and looked at me in horror.

Just when I was confused about this...

"Could it be...that you really killed the person?"

These words ran through my whole body.

"This is impossible!! Stop joking!!"

As soon as I came to my senses, I slapped her hard. This was the first time in my life that I used violence.

"It's the first time I have a friend I can be close to, but how I feel when the other person dies because of me... Mom will never know!!"

"you……"

"If I'm such an eyesore, just disappear from your presence. I've had enough of you saying those heartless words!!"

After a big fight with my mother, I went back to the room to pack my luggage, but on the way out I bumped into my brother who was just coming home.

After explaining what happened.

Unlike my cold-blooded mother, my brother not only comforted me, but also gave me a large amount of money and told me to come home after calming down outside.

…

"...It was under such circumstances that I began to run away from home for a long time for the first time in my life."

Sayu spoke slowly, while Kato Yusuke and Asami listened intently.

"Because I wanted to escape from that home as much as possible, I flew directly to Tokyo."

"It was obviously the first time in my life that I had gained "freedom", but I only felt empty.

During that period, I kept thinking about the meaning of my existence, but I couldn't get the answer. "

"My mother did not welcome my birth. Although my brother cared about me, I could feel that his tenderness contained "compassion." "

"With the idea of ​​giving it all, I didn't keep the promise of regular contact with my brother. Even my cell phone was thrown away after the battery ran out."

"I ran out of money and didn't even have the energy to think. Just when I didn't know what to do next and was wandering on the street at night, I was accosted by a drunk man who said... You can provide me with a place to stay.”

Sayu stopped here.

"Then what?" Asami couldn't help but feel nervous and asked immediately.

Just hearing that this situation was very dangerous, and the man obviously didn't have any good intentions, Asami didn't dare to think about it further.

"Then……"

Sayu turned his attention to Kato Yusuke, then sniffed his red nose hard and laughed softly.

"In the end, Yusuke came out of nowhere and beat the man up without any explanation. After that, he took me home."

"Huh...it's Katozai..." Asami showed an expression of relief, and in a tone about to cry, she leaned forward and said, "What, don't scare me, Sayu-chan."

"I'm sorry, Asami." Sayu responded softly, crystal tears slowly sliding down her smooth face.

"This is all my experiences from Hokkaido to Tokyo, and since I met Yusuke. Thank you for listening to me."

As she slowly uttered these words, the girl's expression seemed to become a little more relaxed, and even the heavy aura that was originally wrapped around her body dissipated.

No matter how it started, at least in the end, she still met the redemption that belonged to her.

Asami thought as she looked at Sayu, and then slowly hugged the distressed girl.

"Sayu-chan, you...have worked very hard."

"I've just been escaping..."

"It's not like that-!"

Asami first interrupted her loudly, and then said intermittently: "Even if you are escaping, at least you still have us, right? No matter whether it is Katozai or me, we will never betray you. , so it doesn’t matter.”

As if he was infected by her tone, Sayu's eyes showed a wavering look, and tears accumulated in his eyes bit by bit, but he nodded his head desperately.

"...Well, thank you."

After saying that, he put his hand behind Asami and hugged her.

First there were soft sobs, then loud cries.

The depression buried deep in my heart began to be released little by little.

Looking at the face that was gradually becoming more beautiful, Kato Yusuke couldn't even tell whether they were tears of pain or happiness.

While he was thinking about these things, Asami suddenly turned to look at him.

"Katozai."

"Um?"

Looking up in confusion, he saw Asami looking straight at him with serious and eager eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Please, we must bring Sayu-chan back...!"

"Um."

"I will wait for you in Tokyo!"

"good."

"Then when you guys come back..." Asami smiled, "Can I come and disturb her again? Just like usual, I eat Sayu-chan's cooking every day, go to and from get off work with her, and study together."

"It's hard to talk about this kind of thing..." Kato Yusuke, who looked like Sayu, kept a secret expression on his face, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if my girlfriend agrees."

"Idiot, how could you disagree! Have you forgotten that we are close friends with one heart and one mind? Right, Sayu-chan?"

"Asami..."

Looking at Asami who was laughing and scolding, Sayu couldn't help but bury his face in her chest and nodded vigorously.

"Well, we are close friends."

"You see?" Asami cast a proud look at Yusuke, her eyes also red.

Kato Yusuke smiled noncommittally, but his thoughts gradually became firmer.

It would be fine if everything went well this time.

If not, he would snatch Sayu back even if he robbed him...
