When his wife was pushed out of the ward by Izumi Toru, the man who had been waiting for a long time quickly ran over to push Izumi Toru away and took his wife's wheelchair.
Izumi Toru was not angry after being pushed away, but rushed towards Hara Jiyue. Now it should be said that Izumi Jiyue waved.
"Come."
The girl glanced at the woman who passed by and didn't even bother to look at her, and then ran towards Izumi Toru.
"Where's the card issuer?"
The girl dug out the cat hairpin from her small bag, held it in her hand, and said to him, "Look, it's here."
Izumi Toru picked up the hairpin from her palm, lifted the hair in front of her face, tucked it behind her ears, and then fixed it with the hairpin.
The girl's cute little face amazes him whenever he looks at it.
"Sure enough, cats like this are the cutest."
Upon hearing the compliment, the girl's face showed a slightly shy smile.
"Is it really, really cute?"
"Um."
"hey-hey……"
Although her parents were once again treating her coldly, the girl's face was still bright.
For her, she was already prepared for this when she was abandoned by her mother and accepted by Izumi Toru.
I came today just to see my mother again.
Now she is about to say goodbye to the past Uehara Himetsu.
That's what she thought.
That's what I originally thought.
Until she saw Izumi Toru take out his mobile phone and headphones.
"Would you like to listen to this?"
"What?"
Izumi Jiyue was a little confused.
Izumi Toru brushed aside her lush hair, put headphones in her ears, and pressed play.
The girl heard the conversation between Izumi Toru and her mother.
"So, what exactly do you want to ask?"
"What I want to know is, why do you pretend to be indifferent to your daughter when you clearly love her?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about at all."
"Well, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Anyway, your daughter will be abandoned soon."
Hearing these words, the girl suddenly turned pale.
Then, she hurriedly raised her head and wanted to say something.
Izumi Toru put his index finger against her lips and said, "Shh! Keep listening."
The girl had no choice but to suppress the panic in her heart and continue to listen.
"What did you say?!"
In the recording, the woman's tone was no longer as calm as before, but became a bit sharp.
"How should I put it? Although she is cute when she lifts her hair, but... maybe because no one loves her, she is a little too clingy, which makes me a little distressed.
After all, I have more than one girlfriend, so I can’t waste time on her..."
Even though she didn't see Izumi Tetsu's face, the girl could hear his troubles just by his voice.
Then, her tears flowed out.
I...became a burden again...
Am I really so annoying to everyone?
Just when she was doubting and denying herself, she was suddenly held in the arms of Izumi Toru.
"Keep listening and you'll understand. I can't bear to lose you."
Listening to him whispering in her ear, her cheek pressed against his warm embrace, her reassuring breath flowed down her nose into her brain, and all the girl's fears disappeared.
At this time, she continued to calm down and listen.
"Ah, Ah Yue is very good... As long as you open your mouth, she will never cling to you again... Even this won't work?"
In the recording, the girl was stunned by her mother's trembling words.
Mom, are you still willing to call me this name?
"By the way, don't you want this daughter? What's the matter with the expression of concern for her now? Why, when you hear that I want to throw away your daughter, do you feel bad?"
"I……"
Listening to her mother being speechless by Izumi Tetsu's question, the girl felt that a beam of light illuminated her heart.
Could it be that……
Mom, you still love me?!
In the earphones, the conversation between Izumi Toru and her mother continued. The girl raised her face and looked at Izumi Toru's tender eyes, and her tears flowed out again.
"Woooooooo..."
This time, I cried with joy.
…
"Sorry, actually I just lied to you. The purpose was just to confirm one thing. Now, I already know the answer. Come on, I will take you out."
"etc!"
"What else do you want?"
In the recording, the woman was silent for a long time.
"Thank you, thank you... Ah Yue... please, please treat her well... I... I... am not a good mother... so... so..."
The sound of sobs came faintly from the mobile phone.
"Don't worry, I will. Also, I won't tell her these words. It's enough for her to have me as her family."
"...Well. Please, please wait a little longer. Now go out, Ah Yue will see it."
"Um."
The girl finally understood why Izumi Toru stayed inside with her mother for so long.
It turned out that it was all to cover up the fact that my mother was crying.
She raised her head and looked at Izumi Tetsu with tears in her eyes.
"He, Izumi-sama..."
"What's up?"
"You, you clearly told your mother not to tell me...why, why did you tell me these things?"
After asking this question, the girl sniffed.
In Izumi Toru's opinion, this action made her feel extremely cute.
However, this made him want to tease her.
"Let me think about it..."
Izumi Toru held his chin in one hand and thought for a while. Then, he lowered his head and said with a smile: "I won't tell you!"
"Eh?!"
The surprised girl opened her mouth wide.
The soul is so relaxed that it wants to fly.
Whether it was being kissed by Izumi Toru or knowing that her mother still loved her, everything made the girl excited.
And when these two things were added up, she no longer knew how to be happy.
My soul felt so relaxed that I wanted to float, and my body could no longer stand still.
In the ward, the girl nestled against Izumi Tetsu's chest, with a beautiful blush on her face.
After a long time, Izumi Toru let go of her.
The girl leaned her whole body weight on his arms, her lips slightly opened, and she gasped.
"Hoo-ho-ho-"
Izumi Toru gently rubbed her hair and asked: "Now, you know that your mother still loves you, right?"
The girl squinted her eyes and felt dizzy.
She even wanted to meow twice.
However, Izumi Toru was asking her just now whether meowing is bad.
So, she said "hmm" softly.
"Meow...yeah!"
"So, if you have to choose, do you want to choose mother or me?"
The girl's expression was suddenly startled.
She slowly raised her head and opened her eyes wide, with deep confusion in her eyes.
"He, Izumi-sama...why? You ask like that?"
Izumi Toru smiled at her.
"Just kidding. Let's go."
After saying that, he took the girl and prepared to go out.
At this time, the girl suddenly grabbed Izumi Toru.
"Izumi-sama!"
"What……"
Izumi Toru turned around, but before he could ask anything, the girl stood up on her tiptoes and tapped him lightly on the lips.
She raised her face, her expression more serious than ever.
"I want to be Izumi-sama's cat, always attached to you and living for you. Don't abandon me."
The girl's gentle yet firm words made Izumi Tetsu feel her determination.
At the same time, a bad thought from before came to mind again.
"I suddenly felt that you could become a real cat."
Not quite understanding what he said, the girl tilted her head and made a slight sound of doubt.
