Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 203 Many firsts

   "...I was still thinking that you were not in the classroom during your lunch break, so you came here, Yusuke."

   Time seems to be stretched suddenly.

   Looking at the girl who was walking slowly, the expression on Kato Yusuke's face was very complicated.

   is like a mixture of surprise, anticipation, ease, confusion, daze and other emotions, which makes people feel obscure and difficult to understand.

   But in the end it returned to peace.

   "I thought you wouldn't come."

   Kato Yusuke opened his mouth slowly, in exchange for a somewhat suspicious look from the other party.

   "Hey~~ what does this mean, do you mean I've been expelled from the student council?"

   "...Sorry, what I just said was wrong."

   Yusuke shook his head and whispered to the girl, "It should be welcome back, Megumi."

   "Hmm...Thank you, although this statement is a little weird."

  Mei, who walked to the desk, said in a normal tone: "So, what is the job you are doing now?"

   Kato Yusuke paused: "...The review of new members' materials, the application form of the Ministry of Culture, and the budget materials of the club, that's probably all."

   "Well, this is basically all the work of the student council."

   The girl who picked up a pile of documents from the table flipped through the documents in her hand and said, "Why, don't you ask me to come with you?"

   The voice is very light and soft, like a trickle flowing in my heart.

   In response, Kato Yusuke responded with silence.

   It wasn't until the other party looked at him again that he whispered, "Because I don't know if you will choose to quit."

  The room was suddenly quiet for a moment.

The    action on the girl's hand also took a moment, and then she murmured: "...after all, I'm also the vice president of the student council, so there should be no reason to quit..."

   Having said this, Megumi suddenly stopped talking.

   Looking carefully at the other's face, the girl asked, "Hey, Yusuke. Did something happen?"

   Hearing what she said, a pair of dark eyes filled with doubts looked over.

   The moment she met those eyes, the girl was even more sure of her guess.

   So he asked again seriously: "I'm asking you, Yusuke. Did something happen to you?"

   "Nothing." - Kato Yusuke thought so, but the words turned into a meaningless blank.

  “…”

   In a long silence, the emotion in his eyes also shook uncontrollably.

   Seeing this, Megumi just nodded slightly.

   then walked around the desk and came to him.

   said a sentence in a clear and beautiful tone that contained inexplicable courage.

   "Talk to me, Yusuke."

  …

   is wrapped in a soft touch.

   Above the neck is as warm as spring, below is as cold as water.

   "Yeah...Well, that's just right."

   What you hear in your ears are soft words, what you see in your eyes are bright eyes and white teeth.

  The two sat together on the sofa in the room.

   Facing the girl who pinned his head on his legs, today's Kato Yusuke did not refuse for some reason. He just closed his eyes a little tiredly, and covered his face with the back of his hands, so that the other party could not see his expression clearly.

   While the girl gently stroked his hair, she said slowly, "If you really don't want to say it, it's okay, just relax, and I'll be there for you until the class starts."

   Kato Yusuke said nothing, but his lips kept moving.

   An emotional plate of talking and not talking is always in the mind, but it has never been able to be turned into words, and in the end there is only a long silence.

   Even so, the girl did not urge, but the movements of her hands became more gentle.

   After a long while, a hoarse and dull voice was squeezed out of Kato Yusuke's throat.

   "…I did bad things."

   He breathed and said, "But I don't regret it."

   seems to be wrapped in a thick swamp, and his tone is very depressed.

   Contrasted with the girl's warm and pleasant voice.

   "Hmm~ So that's what it is, if you don't regret it, why would you show such an expression?"

  “…”

   Another great silence.

   Only time flows quietly.

   did not answer this question, Kato Yusuke just moved his body to a more comfortable position.

   A faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose.

  Different from the previous woody fragrance, the fragrance emanating from the girl at this time is closer to the smell of cherry blossoms.

   is very elegant and very special.

   And even when cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the fragrance is not too strong, generally only when you get close to it can you smell it.

   As if to fill this gap, Kato Yusuke asked casually, "Have you changed your perfume, Megumi."

  “…”

The movement of   's hand suddenly stopped, and the girl's eyes flickered slightly.

   "...you ask this kind of question, you really don't look like the usual you at all, and you're also a little less gentleman..."

  Mei then shook his head and said, "But no, I'm not using that kind of thing."

   An indescribable feeling of pride or pleasure appeared on his face, and the girl's expression became gentle.

   But Yusuke Kato didn't see this scene, he just responded with a little tiredness: "Maybe, but I quite like it... Sorry, Megumi, just let me sleep for a while."

   In this regard, the other party said softly.

   It didn't take long for the boy on his leg to breathe evenly, the hand covering his face also slowly slipped down, and was moved to his chest by the girl just before he fell off the sofa.

   Looking back, a delicate and handsome face appeared in his eyes again.

   Gently smoothed the furrowed brow for the other party, the girl just looked at the sleeping face so quietly, what kind of emotion was brewing in the clear eyes.

   A breeze blew into the room, blew the curtains, and swayed the ends of their hair slightly.

  It is summer, but the air is filled with a smell like cherry blossoms.

  The bright sunlight shines through the glass, sprinkles on the body little by little, and reflects a pair of overlapping shadows on the sofa.

   Recalling the brief conversation he had just had with An Yi Lun on the way here, the girl suddenly asked in a low voice.

   "Hey, Yusuke, do you like me?"

  The boy was silent, his breathing was steady and long.

   "To be honest... I didn't like myself very much originally."

   As if chanting, Megumin's self-talk resounded in the room.

   "I don't have a sense of existence, I haven't participated in a club, I haven't been a class leader at all, and I don't even have many friends, but I don't have the courage to meet more friends..."

   "Clearly yearning for change, but also wanting to have a retreat that can return to the original life at any time... Maybe what I'm longing for is the thrill of not taking risks, but in the end, nothing has changed."

   Gently rubbing the split ends of Kato Yusuke's hair with his hands, the girl's tone seemed a little disappointed.

   just paused for a while.

   "But since meeting Yusuke, everything has changed."

With a look of reminiscence, she muttered again: "This is the first time not to be ignored, the first time to be protected, the first time to hold hands with a boy, the first time to bandage you, the first time to put Long hair, running for the first time together... Before you know it, it seems that many firsts have been given to you."

   "Even with the student council, the time with you was happier than I thought, so you changed me."

   Speaking of this, his tone gradually became a little low.

   "If...the last time we were in the health room, if Yamaguchi-san hadn't come in, what would have happened to us..."

   No response.

   finally turned into a soft whisper: "Why, can't I meet you earlier?"

   As the words fell, the room fell into silence.

   looked down at the sleeping face.

   Thick eyebrows, a sharp nose bridge, and moderately thin lips.

   There is a faint smell of fresh mint on the body.

   just watched silently for a while.

   As if to look at the other side carefully, the girl suddenly leaned down slightly.

  The soft hair brushed lightly across his forehead, and his soft breath brushed against his cheeks, intertwined with the other's breath.

   The faces of the two were so close that the girl could even feel the slightest warmth on each other's body.

   looked at the face that was so close at hand.

   His eyes finally settled on his lips.

   The pink lips opened and closed gently, exhaling a warm breath.

  As the distance shrinks by one inch, even the light seems to stand still.

   But the boy's breathing was still as steady as before, as if he didn't know it.

   In this warm and bright sunshine, even the rustling sound of the breeze blowing the leaves is very active, as if looking forward to something.

   About a few centimeters away, the girl's movements suddenly stopped.

   But she neither stepped forward directly, nor flinched back in a panic.

   Instead, he let this action stagnate for a long time, and finally slowly backed away.

   That white cheek was already covered with red clouds at the moment, and at the same time there was an indescribable obscurity mixed with it.

   "That's not possible..."

   The girl muttered.

   Carefully put the other person's head on the sofa, and then slowly withdraw his body.

   Without making any noise, Megumi just left the room.

   About ten seconds later, there was a deep sigh in the room.

   looked at the dark clouds drifting by the window.

   The boy who opened his eyes said aloud.

   "Looks like it's going to rain..."

   raised his hand and touched his lips, there seemed to be a bit of warmth still vaguely there.

   Even the tip of the nose is lingering with the aroma of cherry blossoms.

   Sitting up from the sofa silently, Kato Yusuke muttered.

   "That's not possible..."
