After dinner, the two washed the dishes together in the small kitchen, then hugged and kissed.
It took a long time before I finally went out.
The moonless starry sky stretched over the two of them, mysterious and vast and untouchable.
It didn't rain tonight, so Shiratori Kyoko naturally didn't need to put her arms around Izumi Toru's shoulders and huddle with him under a small umbrella to take shelter from the rain.
Because of this, she could finally walk hand in hand with him on the street.
You don’t need to find any excuses to behave in such an intimate way.
Even though she was aimless, she still felt happy and joyful.
What's more, it's such a good night and such a good person.
After passing the streetlight under Shiratori Kyoko's apartment for the third time, Izumi Toru finally spoke.
"White Bird."
"Um?"
"Is there anywhere you want to go?"
Kyoko Shiratori thought for a while, and then said: "Wherever Izumi wants to go, I want to go."
"Then go to your hometown."
"Eh?!"
Seeing the panicked look of the girl, Izumi Toru held back his smile and asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
"No, it's not!" Shiratori Kyoko shook her head first, and then asked hesitantly: "Then, that..." Is it too early now?"
Izumi Toru reached out and tapped her forehead lightly.
Boom!
"I'm not going to marry you, I'm just visiting your home, idiot."
Although it didn't hurt, Shiratori Kyoko raised her hand and rubbed her forehead.
"oh......"
"And..." Izumi Toru paused for a while and asked, "Have you thought about how to explain it to your mother?"
The boy's suddenly depressed tone surprised Shiratori Kyoko.
"Explain what?"
Izumi Toru sighed.
"Explain that I actually have many girlfriends. Or are you planning to hide it from your mother?"
The girl was stunned.
She suddenly didn't know how to speak.
After a long time, she lowered her head and asked in a low voice: "Then, what should we do?"
Izumi Toru raised the hands they held together and said: "No matter what, I don't want to let go. If your mother wants to beat me and scold me, that's fine. I will do my best to fulfill any request. But if, no matter what,
If you think I'm a scumbag and want me to leave you, I'll kidnap her daughter away! She won't be able to find you even if she cries!"
Kyoko Shiratori was quite moved when she heard it, until the last sentence.
She couldn't help but hit his shoulder and said angrily: "What! Don't say weird things, idiot!"
Seeing that Izumi Toru had no guilt and was just looking at her seriously, after a while, she looked away shyly.
"No matter what, I will convince my mother...I, I don't want to let go either."
She held Izumi Toru's hand firmly.
"I remember. If you lied to me, I would cry to you."
"Wait a minute! Shouldn't girls usually say this?"
"Oh," Izumi Toru scratched his head and said, "Sorry, tell me then."
"Huh?!" Shiratori Kyoko was stunned.
"Then you won't tell me?"
"explain!"
"bring it on."
"Um!"
Shiratori Kyoko took a deep breath, raised her head, looked into Izumi Toru's eyes, and said seriously: "Absolutely, absolutely do not lie to me about this matter! Otherwise, I, I will really cry, I will cry
This is for you to see..."
As she spoke, the girl suddenly thought about that scene, and then her eyes filled with tears.
Izumi Toru took her into his arms, held her head with one hand, put his mouth next to her ear, and said, "I swear, I will never let you go."
The girl buried her head in his chest, sniffed, and said softly, "Yeah."
After a while, Shiratori Kyoko raised her head.
"Izumi."
"Um?"
"If, I mean if. If is something that may happen, but may not happen, and has a high probability of not happening. Do you understand?" The girl opened her eyes wide and said seriously.
Although she didn't know why she emphasized it so many times, Izumi Toru still nodded.
"Um."
"If...it rains before you leave tonight...then, even if you don't ask, I will keep you..."
Although her tone of voice was soft and her words were few, the girl seemed to have exhausted all her strength just by saying this sentence.
She hid in Izumi Toru's arms and couldn't even stand still.
My legs feel weak and I feel dizzy.
After waiting for a long time, Shiratori Kyoko heard Izumi Toru's words.
But these words made her heart beat wildly.
"Then, before the rain comes, even if you are cheating, I will pull you along."
...
When the two came out of the cinema, the starry sky was still bright and showed no signs of darkness.
Izumi Toru didn't have much reaction, but Shiratori Kyoko pouted in dissatisfaction.
Usually, when I hate rain, it keeps raining.
Now when I want it to rain, it never comes.
She couldn't help but muttered.
"Really annoying!"
Izumi Toru turned his face sideways and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's not raining..."
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I won't leave." With that, Izumi Toru started to pull Shiratori Kyoko towards the bookstore ahead.
"But... wouldn't it become Izumi's fault again?"
Izumi Tetsu paused in his steps.
Looking back, the girl still looked unhappy.
It seems that he cares about this kind of thing very much.
Izumi thought for a while and then said: "Shiratori, it's your fault."
"Um?"
"Because you are so good-looking. For people like me, I just want to be a rogue and stay. Even if I do nothing, I still want to stay. So, it's your fault that you are so good-looking!"
Kyoko Shiratori is shy and happy at the same time.
She put a hand to her lips and said, "No, no... Idiot."
The tone of voice was mixed with complaint and shyness.
"Anyway, let's go to the bookstore and have a look..."
"Izumi, I've already decided on our next date!"
Izumi Toru, who was interrupted, scratched his head and said, "Yeah."
"Then, let's go."
Shiratori Kyoko held his hand and returned in the direction he came from.
…
Izumi Toru looked at the apartment in front of him from a distance, feeling a little surprised.
"Shiratiao, what are you doing?"
"Because it was raining, I took in Izumi who forgot to bring an umbrella. That's the truth." Shiratori Kyoko said.
"Huh? But no..."
Looking at the girl's eyes that seemed to be praying for something, Izumi Toru seemed to understand something.
The words "It's not raining" that I originally wanted to say out of my mouth also dissipated between my teeth.
He clasped his hands together and said to Shiratori Kyoko: "It's raining heavily. Can I stay overnight?"
"No."
"Um?!"
In shock, Shiratori Kyoko covered her mouth and giggled.
"Anyway, even if I refuse, you will come in without mercy."
She ran into the apartment first and pressed the elevator button.
Then, she turned around, put her hands to her lips, and shouted: "If you don't arrive when the elevator comes down, I won't care about you. Even if it really rains, I won't care about you."
Izumi Toru immediately ran towards her.
The sky above the apartment was full of stars twinkling.
Beautiful scenery on a good night cannot be harvested in full.
