Chapter 87 But the world is not so gentle to her (Part 1)
Cappuccino is a very popular type of coffee. Add Italian coffee mixed with equal amounts of Italian espresso and steamed foam milk.
This time, what Hayasaka Ai brought to Ishigami Yu was a cappuccino, as pure as snow and white as the mountains, dotted with brown, and with a four-leaf clover on top.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to drink?"
Hayasaka Ai, who was supporting his head with his hands crossed, was a little confused when he saw that Ishigami was still observing the cappuccino and had no intention of drinking it.
Today, she is not a maid, so she doesn't have to stand next to him to serve him.
Although the coffee brewing skills in this shop are not very good, the equipment is still complete. She thought she would waste her words and was prepared to be scolded. After all, the customers made their own coffee in the cafe, which still felt a bit uncomfortable.
Great.
But the old lady store manager here received Ai Hayasaka in person with a very friendly attitude and even some respect. After hearing her request, she directly gave her the highest-grade coffee beans in the store.
Still free!
She can also use the equipment in the coffee room as she pleases.
The only request was that Hayasaka Ai could give her a cappuccino as a reward while making it. Hayasaka Ai agreed to her simple request without even thinking about it.
Therefore, the cappuccino created by combining high-grade coffee beans with her top-notch skills can be said to be her proud work.
This time, Hayasaka Ai's mentality of making coffee is much more relaxed than last time. She clearly knows that he likes the coffee she brews, so she is not so anxious. Instead, it is a kind of response, the joy of giving the highest praise to the person she likes.
"No, Hayasaka-senpai."
Ishigami shook his head
“Just this cappuccino”
"It's already a beautiful work of art, but it makes me reluctant to drink it."
He picked up the white porcelain cup, and instead of stirring it slightly in advance like drinking black coffee, he tilted it directly to drink. In this way, he could drink coffee, milk and milk foam at the same time for the ultimate enjoyment.
cappuccino
Different from the bitterness of black coffee
On the contrary, the first bite is soft and sweet, and the smooth and whipped milk foam seems to be directly rippling in the heart. The dense texture and fragrant aroma directly impact the taste buds with the warm current.
The infused sugar called emotion directly makes the fragrance sweeter and warmer. It is as beautiful as the purest love in fairy tales.
But no matter how beautiful the fairy tale is, it is still a fairy tale, an unrealistic beauty, a flower in the water, the moon in the mirror...
We have to return to this reality eventually
Violently tear off this false sweet sugar coating
exposed and wrapped
But it’s a bitter heart
This bitterness buried deep under the sweetness is actually more cruel than going straight to the point.
Because I have tasted this sweetness, can I still endure the original feeling of loneliness?
The gentleness of Ishigami is the cruelty towards Hayasaka who always sleeps alone.
Sudden care and love
It's poison
is cruel
It will only make people more greedy to ask for
This love that doesn't belong to her
a
The meaning of cappuccino itself is
consistent love
And wait without changing your mind
Whether you are here or not, I will be there waiting for you.
What's interesting is that when the four words "cappuccino" are translated into Chinese in Italian, they will become "I love you".
The "four-leaf clover" on the cappuccino also has a special meaning. Its flower language is "happiness".
Give it to a person to wish him happiness.
Four-leaf clover is also called lucky clover. Only one four-leaf clover can be obtained among 10,000 or 5,000 clovers. It is very precious.
The same is true for a girl's love. The world is so big and I just want to be gentle to you.
Isn't this precious?
A small cup of cappuccino is actually the confession of "thousand-layer cake" Hayasaka Ai.
Like is a kind of obsession, it will always stay in your heart and you can't get rid of it.
This may be the "sadness of cappuccino"
There is no way back.
"Thank you, senior."
Put down this cup of coffee on Ishigami
"You gave me another different experience."
“Coffee’s thousand-layer routine”
he smiled
"really not bad."
Looking at his sincere smile, Hayasaka Ai had a feeling
She really wanted to record this smile.
This smile belongs to her
bloom only for her
A smile that belongs only to her
Only now did she know the answer to the question just now. The most precious thing in life is this kind of smile that appears inadvertently.
It's hard to capture a photo
Hayasaka Ai picked up the small bag at hand
"Let's go, Ishigami-kun."
"It's still early, let's go shopping."
Hayasaka Ai still wants to create more memories with him. There is still a long time today, so walk slowly with him.
"Yes, senior sister."
Ishigami also stood up
Just as the two were about to walk out of the cafe, the manager of the shop stopped them.
"That cute little girl, come here."
Hayasaka Ai is a little confused
"What's the matter, grandma?"
The kind old woman handed Hayasaka Ai a black card and asked her to accept it. She whispered a few words to her and then let her go with a smile.
"What's wrong, senior?"
Hayasaka Ai shook his head to dispel his concerns.
Smiled at Ishigami
"It's okay, let's go."
Just the breeze blew her hair, and you could see the girl's red earlobes, showing her inner peace.
She walked forward alone
"This old lady is really..."
Hayasaka Ai touched her face, but her routine was on.
"well..."
"Is it that obvious on my face?"
"What are the experiences of people who have been there?"
"But if you like it, go for it. Even if you fail, it's better than regretting it later."
She turned around and saw her younger brother Jun following behind, and took his hand directly.
said angrily
"Don't walk so slowly, Ishigami-kun."
“There seems to be something fun there”
"move."
The old woman looked at their retreating figures and smiled happily.
"That's it!"
"Love is not something you just stand there and then fall in love with."
"Only when one party pulls the other party to take the initiative, can the story between you continue to be written."
"Come on, little girl."
"well"
"This man always likes to chatter when he gets old."
"I'm getting sentimental now."
"It's really not possible anymore..."
The old woman wiped the tears from her eyes
The little girl who just made cappuccino was very moved by her.
"Desire to let your loved ones taste more delicious coffee."
"This is about continuous adjustment every day."
"It can be said to be a very taste of love."
"A cup carefully tempered for one person"
“So cute and childish”
"This roundabout and pure expression of love is the bitter taste of love that has not yet blossomed."
She could feel that there was a lot of love in that cup of cappuccino.
"This is the bitterness of youth."
"But loving so deeply will be very hard, little girl."
....
"Senior sister, you mentioned the fun place."
"This is it."
Ishigami saw the bright lights around him, various animations on the electronic screens, and the sound of various tokens colliding in his ears.
Listening to the dynamic game music, I suddenly felt immersed in the game.
I just want to relax
This is a regular game arcade, and there are quite a lot of people inside because it is the weekend. Parents and children are all playing.
Hayasaka Ai's eyes lit up again when she looked at the dazzling array of game equipment.
"Well, I've wanted to do it once before."
Ishigami heard what his senior said
"Senior sister, haven't you been here before?"
Hayasaka Ai shook her head
She is usually so busy, how can she have time to play here?
"That's right, I've never been here once."
Speaking of which, I seem to have broken the precepts again by being here.
The Shinomiya family's educational policy is to stay away from such low-level tastes.
In the words of Hayasaka Ai, her etiquette teacher, "Oh, these are things for common people to play with."
But it’s all here
Also, when Misuzu-chan and Hikinokuchi-chan usually ask her to go out to play, she can go out twice out of ten, which is considered good.
But even if they go out to play, they will not come here, but go to some places that suit their status as eldest ladies. Besides, it is sometimes not safe for the three girls to go here. After all, she is in school.
Her character is just a weak hot girl.
The Shinomiya family has always been filled with all kinds of complicated work, which completely fills up Hayasaka Ai's entire time, and she feels resentment when she thinks about it.
Hayasaka Ai forced herself to suppress these thoughts. It would be too disappointing to want to work while going out to play.
A game console attracted her attention. She saw a person playing over there. It looked quite simple.
Hayasaka Ai held Ishigami's hand, looking excited
"Let's go play that."
Only "Taiko Masters" can make neon games easy for young and old to get started with and get addicted to.
As long as you simply invest two game coins, you can start an exciting game. In the familiar music, watch the notes on the screen rolling and hitting the drum head.
This is a game full of impact and easy to relieve stress.
"Ishigami-kun, help me get it."
Hayasaka Ai handed her small bag to Ishigami
"I'm happy to oblige, miss."
Ishigami took it from her hand
Hayasaka smiled, took out the hair tie from the pocket of her skirt and tied it into a side ponytail skillfully.
"Look at me."
She picked up the stick with her white hands and stared at the screen.
Soon the music started playing, and the girl's hands danced to the music.
"Winter Card"
"Winter, winter, winter"
"Winter Card"
The feeling of hitting the drum head hard with a wooden hammer reminded her of the video of beating a slime to pieces with an expressionless face.
She instantly increased her strength
Sure enough, it’s almost meaningless just by looking at it, but the truth is to get started!
"Ha ha ha ha"
The beating drumhead beats with Hayasaka Ai's ponytail, and of course the heart does too.
The feeling of joy and relief merged together, which made Hayasaka Ai's face even more joyful.
The song is over
She put down the stick and wiped the sweat from her forehead, still feeling a little unfinished.
“I really haven’t had so much fun in a long time.”
Ishigami took out a napkin from his pocket
"Senior, please wipe it."
Hayasaka Ai took the napkin
"Thank you, Ishigami-kun."
She said in an apologetic tone
"Sorry, Ishigami-kun."
"I seem to be enjoying myself."
Ishigami smiled
"It's nothing, senior sister."
"Rather, thank you for the hospitality."
Hayasaka-senpai was really handsome just now
There is no better visual enjoyment than watching a beautiful girl playing the drums rhythmically in front of you. The combination of the girl's strength and beauty with the beauty of her music is so pleasing to the eye.
"Mo, you are saying such strange things again."
Hayasaka Ai looked at him helplessly
"Let's play another game."
This first game made Hayasaka Ai let go.
She also wants to play other things
She glanced at him next to her
Added another sentence
It's best if two people can play it.
In the following time, Hayasaka Ai and Ishigami played a lot of games. They raced on the track with two-player racing, fought monsters in the wasteland, played fishing masters, robbed pirates on pirate ships, and other small games.
These are joys that Hayasaka Ai has never experienced before, and the smile on her face never stops.
"winter"
The heroic Hayasaka Ai throws with one hand, which is a beautiful and accurate shot.
game over
Ishigami saw on the screen that it was the highest record set by the senior sister.
he whistled
"Nice, senior."
Ishigami stepped forward and gave her a water bottle
"Senior, thank you for your hard work."
"Let's take a rest."
"Okay, Ishigami-kun."
Hayasaka Ai took off her hair tie and shook her slightly wet hair.
The two of them sat on chairs and rested for a while, then Ishigami asked
"Senior sister, what else do you want to play?"
Hayasaka Ai pondered for a while, as if she had almost finished everything she should play.
Wait, there seems to be one more missing.
"I still want to play that."
Ishigami looked in the direction of the senior sister's finger and saw that it was a "crane machine".
When he saw the claw machine, he thought of his senior sister's empty room. A person would be very lonely in that environment.
He's pretty good at catching dolls on rocks.
How about grabbing a few more dolls for her, which can not only decorate the room, but also serve as memories.
They came to the row of claw machines. All kinds of cute dolls were sitting on the shelves, waiting for people to grab them.
Ishigami said to Hayasaka Ai
"Senior, which one do you like?"
"I'm not bragging, I'm a master of catching dolls."
"You'll know if it's there as soon as you take action."
Hayasaka Ai looked at the dolls inside the glass and let out a small exclamation.
All so cute
She pointed to a doll in a display window and said
"I want that"
Saw on Ishigami
"It turns out that senior sister likes that."
Although the smile on the face of the doll panda is a bit strange, it can still make people feel good at a glance.
That thing seems to be called "Mr. Pan".
"Senior, let me help you fish it out."
Hayasaka Ai took a few game coins from his hand and said with a smile
"Let me try it first"
"Mr. Master."
Although she has never played before, Hayasaka Ai actually has quite a lot of experience in catching dolls. She has learned a lot of weird techniques, and these things are also very helpful in assisting in catching dolls.
"Master of Theory" Hayasaka Ai started her first attempt. She shook the rocker and carefully picked up the little bear.
It was already caught in the air, but fell down with a bang.
Hayasaka Ai's hand froze
Ishigami encouraged
"Senior, come on!"
"Just a little bit."
Hayasaka Ai nodded, well, this is just the first time. Mistakes are normal.
But....
She watched the tokens in her hand disappear quickly, and her originally confident heart felt cold.
If her younger brother Jun wasn't still around, she would have at least given this crappy machine a couple of legs.
Look down on her, don’t you?
She threw the last game coin in with a trembling hand. I didn't believe it anymore.
Ishigami saw that this was the last one
He sighed and stepped forward
Hayasaka Ai felt her hand being held by a pair of warm hands, and she could feel the warm breath of the person behind her on her neck.
