Neither this nor that will be allowed, which seems quite unreasonable.
But what I actually want to say is that you are not allowed to apologize, you are not allowed to be perfunctory, and you are not allowed to change the topic.
He is not allowed to apologize because he is not wrong. He is not allowed to be perfunctory because he wants to hear a clear answer. He is not allowed to change the topic because he does not want to experience the feeling of grievance again.
However, after she said the words in a fierce tone, it seemed to be unreasonable. When Akina Nakamori realized this, her heart was enveloped in unspeakable regret.
Iwahashi Shinichi stretched out his arm and hugged her. Nakamori Akina lay in his arms, as if her emotions were also caught by him. But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable she became, and she waited hard to see, With tears.
It's different from everything planned.
On New Year's Eve, I didn't hold hands with Shinichi Iwahashi and go to Asakusa to pay homage. Even though I went with Heita, she felt happy and it felt like a family outing.
I wanted to tell Shinichi Iwahashi this. However, it was different from what I planned. Even if I wanted to let Shinichi Iwahashi know how I felt, the words came out of his mouth and became unreasonable.
The unplanned change in the first plan brought about the second plan. The change in the second plan pushed her here. At this moment, facing the third plan that she messed up, she felt uneasy Waiting to see if it changes again.
Why can't you just say what you want to say frankly?
In the silence, Iwahashi Shinichi finally spoke. He gently wiped her tears with his fingers, seemingly unable to do anything to her, "You are not allowed to say this, and you are not allowed to say that."
Nakamori Akina sniffed and felt uncomfortable, but the more this happened, the more speechless she became. At this moment, it was no longer what she wanted to say, but what she wanted to say, but something seemed to be blocking her. Let all the words sink in your chest.
Unless Shinichi Iwahashi removes the stone blocking it for her.
"Then tell me something else." Iwahashi Shinichi touched her head.
His tone was relaxed and natural. Akina Nakamori remained silent, feeling the rise and fall of her chest as she breathed. The stone in her heart moved slightly to the side, bit by bit.
Shinichi Iwahashi sat up and let Akina Nakamori lie on his lap, "Just say 'thank you', say 'thank you', and say 'very happy'."
"...What are you talking about?" Akina Nakamori burst into laughter.
As if he was deliberately playing devil's advocate. Iwahashi Shinichi also laughed, "But I really think so. Even if you weren't wrong, I wouldn't have said those words."
Nakamori Akina blinked her sour eyelids after crying, "Then you say what you want to say."
She had just cried a lot and heard the sound of the urn. Shinichi Iwahashi looked at her like a kitten that had fallen into the water and said to her, "If Chieko-san comes back now and sees you crying like this, I will be in danger." "
"No way." Akina Nakamori said without hesitation, "If your mother likes you so much, she must think there is a reason for everything. Maybe Akina is playing tricks..."
Halfway through her self-defeating words, she pouted, "Is that what you want to say?"
"no."
"what is that?"
"I'm very happy." Shinichi Iwahashi said.
Akina Nakamori raised her eyes and looked at him, "Why are you happy?"
"Although we haven't been able to live together as two people, and we have to bring Heita back when he's asleep, I'm still very happy." Shinichi Iwahashi put his hand on her forehead again.
Put your hand on the face where you had just cried, and it was warm to the touch.
"That doesn't sound like 'happy'." Akina Nakamori said to him.
"Does it sound pathetic?"
Iwahashi Shinichi asked, and Nakamori Akina smiled, "I didn't say that."
"If this is the case," Shinichi Iwahashi thought for a moment, "after your child is born, we can go to Asakusa together on New Year's Eve and bring the sleeping child back..." He sighed deliberately, "It's strange to think about it. hard."
Nakamori Akina glared at him and asked, "Is it very hard?"
"Is it pity?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked.
Only then did Akina Nakamori react. He led her around by the nose and punched him on the shoulder, "What's wrong with you?"
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled and took her fist, kneaded it in his hand, and held her hand, "Of course I don't feel it's hard."
"Then it's even more impossible for me to feel 'poor'." Nakamori Akina whispered.
Iwahashi Shinichi continued slowly, "Although I don't know exactly what the thing you know is...but, I also know one thing."
"What's the matter?" Akina Nakamori asked, suddenly holding her breath.
The conversation just now seemed to have gone off the rails, and she couldn't help but squeeze Iwahashi Shinichi's hand tightly, fearing that what had happened just now would happen again, and even the question she blurted out was worried that it would be redundant.
Iwahashi Shinichi felt her nervousness. At this moment, he suddenly realized how she felt when she said those unreasonable words just now. If at this moment, his words were interrupted by nonsense, he would probably lose it. The courage to continue speaking.
From this point of view, Nakamori Akina, who just said those unreasonable words of "I won't let you do this, I won't let that," was actually showing her extraordinary courage to Shinichi Iwahashi.
Shinichi Iwahashi understood her mood, and felt in his heart that he could not match her frankness. This thought occasionally appeared in his mind, and then was confirmed and deepened again the next time.
Even so, at such moments, he could also get the courage he shared from her from this moment of realization.
As soon as Iwahashi Shin thought of this, he told her, "I know, I am very happy to live such a life. I am starting to look forward to marrying you and giving birth to children, a life like this."
Akina Nakamori listened, and before she knew it, she was already smiling. She was satisfied and squinted her eyes. Of course she couldn't see it herself, but her eyelids were swollen. This look was actually very funny.
Iwahashi Shinichi saw her appearance and did not smile.
"Then let me tell you what I know." Akina Nakamori took her hand out of Shinichi Iwahashi's hand and touched his cheek, "I know, Shinichi, you will definitely be a good father."
"If I can be a good father, then you must be a good mother."
Before Iwahashi Shinichi could finish this sentence, Nakamori Akina smiled, "...Shinichi, your face is warm."
"You're shy, aren't you?" She laughed happily.
But rather than saying that he was laughing at him, it was better to say that he was sincerely happy. Iwahashi Shinichi, who was not good at saying this kind of thing, was able to say it even if he was embarrassed.
"I want to get married soon and have a child."
Compared to Iwahashi Shinichi, Nakamori Akina was more direct and frank. She didn't feel that there was anything to be ashamed of in saying these words, and she looked forward to the future with a smile. She became more playful and pounced on Iwahashi Shinichi with all her strength. Fall, face to face with him.
"You can't be here with Chieko-san...right?" Iwahashi Shinichi returned the original sentence.
Nakamori Akina bumped her forehead against his and said, "How stingy."
I don’t know who is more stingy.
However, he did agree with what he said, it is not that one family does not enter the same house. Perhaps realizing this, Akina Nakamori gave up her energy and lay down next to him honestly.
"Hurry up and marry you." Iwahashi Shinichi told her. When Nakamori Akina tilted her head, he moved her face closer, "Then, you don't have to do that anymore."
She snorted and couldn't help but dislike him, "That's all you want to say, right?"
"I know, we have to do it in order, right?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked.
Nakamori Akina listened to his teasing words, but she thought they were words of love and was satisfied. She nodded and pretended, "That's right, you did a good job, Iwahashi-san."
This time, Iwahashi Shinichi laughed. After the laughter subsided, he felt tired, closed his eyes, and said to her, "This year is the tenth anniversary of your debut."
Akina Nakamori responded with "Yeah, yeah" twice, and told Shinichi Iwahashi, "Last spring, the office was working with the record company to celebrate the tenth anniversary. From the second half of the year, there will be pre-anniversary planning.
"
The tenth anniversary is a big day and must be treated grandly. It is usually prepared a year in advance, and relevant plans are announced half a year in advance. Anniversary celebrations are not only for summary, but also for building momentum for the singer himself, and for the company and the singer.
Record companies made huge profits this year.
For a star like Akina Nakamori, the anniversary is still a great opportunity to hit various records.
"This year," Shinichi Iwahashi opened his eyes, "it's almost time to start preparing for marriage. When it comes to marriage, you can't just go and get the naturalization registration form."
"Then what preparations should be made?" Akina Nakamori raised her elbows and listened to him with a smile.
"First, the parents of both parties need to meet and discuss." Iwahashi Shinichi thought of Nakamori Akio and looked at her. However, Nakamori Akina still had the same smiling expression, and her expression did not change.
"If you want to get married, you must decide on the time and venue of the wedding. The hotel must be ready to book now... Did I say something funny?"
Iwahashi Shinichi racked his brains to recall the weddings he had attended in the past few years, as well as the clips he heard from his mother about the preparations for Asako and Narita Hiroyuki's marriage. He was going to list them one by one. In the end, it seemed that he was laughed at by Akina Nakamori.
.
"No." Nakamori Akina smiled and shook her head, "Because I'm very happy."
Although Shinichi Iwahashi who said this is full of inexperienced clumsiness. Of course, Akina Nakamori herself has no such experience. For her, she may not be any better than Shinichi Iwahashi.
But in a sense, at a moment like this, the more clumsy it is, the more enjoyable it is.
"One more thing," Shinichi Iwahashi mentioned, "about the wedding house..."
Akina Nakamori puffed her lips and wanted to say something, but when she saw that he hadn't finished speaking, she closed her mouth again.
Iwahashi Shinichi discussed with her, "Should we buy land and build it ourselves, or should we buy an apartment?"
Since last year, land prices have begun to fall, and the real estate bubble has burst. The future is unclear, and land prices may fall a lot. This is something Nakamori Akina is well aware of.
Of course, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't possibly not know, she thought to herself. Because she knew this, Akina Nakamori couldn't speak and told him, "It seems like it's not the right time to buy land now."
For Nakamori Akina, Kiyose's Nakamori family is completely a thing of the past. Her mother, Chieko, lives in a rented house. When her mother has her freedom and a new life, Nakamori Akina becomes even more eager to have her own.
Home.
After her mother sold Kiyose's hometown, she got rid of the anklets that tied her and sorted out the grudges she had had with her relatives over the past few years. However, while getting rid of the shackles, she also lost her life.
s home.
Marrying Iwahashi Shinichi has given her a stable life, so she doesn’t feel afraid even if she breaks away from her relatives. However, when she wants to start a family with Iwahashi Shinichi, Nakamori Akina has to think that there is a house belonging to the Iwahashi family that can be used as a family.
It is a house where the two of them, as well as the children who will be born in the future, can treasure and preserve the memories of this large family.
Although when she was paying attention to the land, her agent Omoto-san also reminded her that it was best not to buy the land now, but in fact, Nakamori Akina had been thinking that if Iwahashi Shinichi didn't mind, she would buy the house.
However, Shinichi Iwahashi's current tone clearly included the purchase of a house as a consideration for marriage.
Iwahashi Shinichi had watched the bubble era with cold eyes for many years, but when the bubble burst and land prices began to fall, he still made plans to buy a house, knowing that they would fall even more in the future. Such an idea probably seemed unwise.
However, it would be too boring to accurately calculate the pros and cons in everything and never do anything that loses money. Especially now, he can take responsibility for his own choices and can also afford the "future" that has not yet come.
”, I am not worried that taking this step will make me stretched in the future, but I am also sure that I will continue to be a leader in the next era.
At times like this, he wanted to make himself more comfortable rather than making the right move.
But for Shinichi Iwahashi, marrying Nakamori Akina will actually create a deep connection with this person in this world and build a family. The home with Nakamori Akina is his first home.
In his heart, the idea of having a home of his own is actually no less important than that of Akina Nakamori.
…
When the two of them got tired of talking, they turned on the TV and listened to the comedians on the show. The kotatsu under their feet was warm, and the two people next to each other were also warm, unconsciously.
, making you sleepy.
This kind of sleep didn't last long, and when I woke up, the two of them were still next to each other.
Nakamori Akina cried a lot and woke up with swollen eyelids, like an ugly kitten. She blinked herself and felt that she couldn't open her eyes, so she said "Oh shit" aggrievedly twice, then her eyebrows drooped.
It looks even more pitiful.
When he raised his eyelids again, he saw Shinichi Iwahashi smiling, scaring him, "If mother sees it, you have to be careful."
It's okay not to say that, but to say that, Shinichi Iwahashi smiled even harder, "A reasonable person like Chieko-san will definitely ask the reason for the matter."
"You're really good at talking." Akina Nakamori glanced at him and folded up the thin blanket covering her body.
While folding it, I suddenly realized that this blanket seemed to have been there before going to bed?
