MTL - Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home-Chapter 586 dream and proof
Chapter 586 Dream and verification
After a while.
Yusuke Kato looked away and responded: "...Sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about."
Sayou's heart skipped a beat, with a faint sense of loss between his brows, he lowered his eyes a little cautiously, and just meditated for a while.
"Then... do you know the name Iwanami-san?"
"You may as well just say what you have to say." Kato Yusuke said bluntly, looking at the store aimlessly.
Gulp...
Sayu swallowed, clutching the skirt on her thighs with both hands, and raised her head cautiously.
"...It might be presumptuous of me to say that suddenly, but..."
She took a shallow breath and said softly, "I seem to have seen you in a dream..."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt as if she suddenly became transparent, as light as a feather.
The boy didn't say a word, and looked a little careless.
Sayu couldn't tell anything from that side face, so she had to continue talking.
"You may not believe what I'm going to say next, and it may cause trouble to you. Even I don't quite understand the reason... But suddenly, many strange things appeared in my head."
"In my dream, a boy named Iwanami accompanied me through the summer of my second year of high school..."
"He has short black hair, is tall, has the same outstanding appearance as you, and is very popular with everyone."
"Then, he changed my life..."
The girl made the opening remarks in this way, and the color of memory surged in her eyes.
Paused for a few seconds, she continued slowly.
“…At the beginning, I didn’t know him. Although he was a classmate in the class, we didn’t even speak a word.”
"I haven't paid attention to him, presumably he hasn't paid attention to me either. Having said that, because of his handsome appearance, there should be many people paying attention to him."
“There were a few cliques in the class at the time, and I wasn’t in any of them. Rather, I was completely on the fringes.”
"Neither interfere with others, nor be interfered by others. Live a smooth life every day, just like air."
"Because of my family, I have never been able to integrate into campus life, but this kind of thing doesn't matter, and I can accept it."
"Things have been going well before...
But this is me, but because I once rejected a confession from a popular boy in the class, I was targeted by a girl who liked that boy, and I was isolated.
Not only that, my friend Yuko was also bullied because of my relationship..."
As if remembering something bad, the girl's eyes cast a shadow.
At this time, the waiter just came.
"Excuse me, this is an Americano and a matcha latte for two, please take it easy~"
As the other party said this, he gracefully placed the hot drink in front of the two of them, then turned and left.
"..."
Sayu, who was interrupted, held the mug with both hands, took a sip, relaxed a little, and whispered unconsciously: "It's so sweet and delicious..."
Yusuke Kato's eyes flickered, and he also lowered his head and drank his coffee.
The conversation continues.
"...At that moment, Iwanami-san approached us."
A look of disappointment appeared on the girl's face.
Half nostalgic, half weird.
"That person is really inexplicable. Not only did he run to contact me and Yuzi despite the strange eyes of the whole class, but he also pretended to know everything, which upset me."
"Obviously he is completely different from us.
He doesn't need to worry about others, he can laugh and mess around as much as he wants, and even if he has an occasional dispute with someone, he can quickly reconcile.
It is impossible for a person like him to understand how we want to live a normal life. "
There was depression and irritation in his tone.
"Especially that person who doesn't know how to keep a distance from others, just stepping into other people's warning zone without authorization, is a rude and annoying ghost."
“I get angry every time I talk to him, and he always does impulsive and messy things with no regard for other people’s feelings.”
"Even if I made it clear that I wanted to draw a clear line, he would still come to talk to me in a nonchalant manner."
Sayu said so.
…
Say, one day.
「Actually, I want to be friends with Ogiwara-san, is that okay?」
「Why? Contacting us should be of no benefit to you.」
"That's not true.
For me, there is nothing more important than you here, so are you willing to agree to my request? "
"abnormal!"
Evidently they weren't even friends, he was so rude, and even ate his bento rudely.
Facing his frivolous attitude, she just couldn't restrain her bitter tone and became quite stubborn.
Since that day, she has maintained her indifferent attitude and kept her distance from that person.
Say, one day.
「Ogiwara-san from Class 3, Grade 2, I like you! Would you like to be friends with me on the premise of dating?」
Even though she wanted to sever the relationship completely, the other party still approached her relentlessly, and even confessed to her openly in front of the teachers and students of the whole school.
She doesn't quite understand why the other party is obsessed with her, obviously that person can choose too many objects.
However, she didn't intend to agree either.
Say, one day.
「Have you been targeted by You Yue?」
"Don't be so nervous, it's fine."
"is that so?"
"I said you, you are showing this expression again, can't you have some confidence in me? If I say it's okay, it will be fine."
I really don't understand that person.
Obviously being targeted by troublesome people, but still so carefree.
She was so irritable because she didn't understand.
Nobody had ever treated her like that before.
It was like trying to tear off her strong support, and let her rely on him self-righteously.
...He didn't understand at all what kind of mood she had been protecting her friends all this time.
I'm so mad, I'm so mad.
She really hates people like him the most.
The excitement towards others that she thought she had given up long ago made her heart pound.
Say, one day.
「Did you let those people from the football club contact Yuko?」
"Well, after all, if you want to be accepted by a circle, those with higher status will give priority to guiding and setting an example, which will be more conducive to being recognized by others."
「…Have you thought this way from the beginning?」
"Instead of relying on you to protect her alone, don't you think it's the right way to help her build up her confidence like this?"
「I’m not denying this kind of thing...but...」
「But it’s impossible from your point of view, so you can only choose to fight...Is that what you want to say?」
With just one sentence, that person stepped into the soft place in her heart.
Especially when the other party said everything right, it made her even more angry.
She feels that her past life has been completely denied.
But at the same time, somewhere in her heart couldn't help but jump for joy.
Turns out someone noticed.
It was the other party who let her discover that she actually didn't like herself like this.
Because of his father's fickleness, the powerlessness of being hated by his mother, the pain of wanting to change but being unable to do anything, will always be regarded as the loneliness of a transparent person.
In the dark days.
That boy will always choose her unswervingly and stand by her side.
Because she is too guarded, she doesn't want to rely on others, and she doesn't want people to know.
However, that person seemed to have seen her distress from the very beginning.
That's why she was so anxious, trying to keep a distance from him, but couldn't help caring about him.
Even if her attitude towards him is so indifferent, and she is so fierce that she doesn't care what he thinks at all.
But that self-righteous boy really fulfilled his promise.
Not only reached out to her who had been fighting alone, but also stayed by her side, even caring about her own affairs more than herself.
It was like the smoked wind blowing into the air-conditioning room, making her chest extremely hot.
I don't know when, the name she called him changed.
From "Iwanami-san" to "Yusuke".
Although it was a helpless cooperation at the request of the other party.
However-
It was just a slight change in the way of addressing, which made her feel close without authorization.
Obviously, in order not to get involved in unnecessary troubles, she has always been indifferent to anyone and everything, and lived a life of solitude.
—But for the first time, I have someone I want to trust.
She also wants close friends.
Every day we play together, fight and quarrel, sometimes quarrel and then reconcile.
Chat happily with good friends about the boy you like, or discuss with them about the boy you like.
This was the first emotion she noticed after meeting the person in front of her.
She doesn't want the original life at all.
She was just imprisoned there.
In fact, she also wants to go forward like him, and wants to laugh happily.
Unknowingly, she began to look forward to the opportunity to talk to him, thinking that she could live such a life in the future.
Then a series of things happened...
The boy you like is framed, the girls in the class get revenge, the mother is bored, the best friend commits suicide...
Dizzying events followed one after another, with overwhelming pressure, intending to completely destroy people.
But before she could react, things ended one by one...
"From school to home.
Kids thing, mother thing...
That man’s promises were all fulfilled in the end, he’s my hero…”
The girl's voice was choked up, mixed with a strong nasal voice.
“…I was always afraid, if I build a relationship with someone, if I have someone I value, will I lose them all one day?”
"Will I hurt others, be hurt by others; will I have to let go of the hand I hold, I am really afraid."
"But…"
The girl sniffed her nose lightly, and hiccupped "coo, coo".
"That person is too dazzling...
No one has ever chosen me so firmly. He always tries to face my heart, making me unconsciously want to depend on him. "
She stopped here for a while, her slender eyelashes trembling, her eyes filled with mist, she bit her lip, and there was a hint of crying in her voice.
"...In the end, I lost him..."
Couldn't continue.
Sayu lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly, her chest rose and fell irregularly.
Pressed it lightly with one hand, and exhaled forcefully for a few seconds to calm himself down.
Then.
She opened her eyes again, and said in a deliberately calm tone:
"Although it was just a dream, maybe it all sounded so unrealistic that nobody even remembers it except me...
But... if you know anything, please tell me..."
As the voice slowly settled down.
It seems to have suddenly recovered from a certain state.
Yusuke Kato's eyes changed from trance to clarity, and then transferred his consciousness from the void to the girl opposite.
The face that looked more mature than in memory was illuminated by the dim lights in the store, reflecting illusory shadows.
That beautiful figure and lonely expression caused a pain in his chest, but he didn't show it on his face.
He looked at the other party quietly, and whispered: "...I don't have what you are looking for here."
Crash, like being splashed with a bucket of cold water.
The tirade just now is like a lie.
Sayu woke up from the dream all at once.
Pattering, emotions recede like a tide.
"then you…"
She opened her mouth to try to say something, but was interrupted by the boy.
“…Sorry I couldn’t help you. Anyway, thanks for telling me this, it’s an interesting story, and I might consider using it in my creations in the future.”
Kato Yusuke looked up at the clock on the wall, and tapped his finger on the table.
"As a thank you, I've ordered this coffee, and it's getting late, so it's almost time for me to leave. Nice to meet you, Ms. Ogiwara."
After speaking, he stood up and walked to the cashier with the bill.
Seeing him about to leave, Sayu panicked for no reason, stood up uncontrollably and shouted: "...please wait a moment!"
Yusuke Kato stopped in his tracks, with no extra expression on his face, "...Miss Ogiwara, is there anything else you want?"
"..."
Sayu was at a loss for words for a while.
She wanted to continue to seek evidence from him, but the other party had already expressed her attitude, and she had no reason and didn't know how to stop it.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help lowering her eyes in frustration, then shook her head slowly, with a forced smile on her face.
"...Nothing, thank you for listening to me. Sorry to take up your time..."
Tick-tick-tick, the clock is walking gently.
"..."
Looking at the soft and tender smiling face with a weak facial expression, Yusuke Kato unconsciously clenched and loosened his fingers holding the bill book, and asked a question.
"…where do you live."
"Eh?"
Sayu, who suddenly heard this question, couldn't help being stunned, his eyes flickered slightly, then he lowered his head and stared at his toes and whispered:
"...I came in a hurry and haven't found a place to live yet."
A short silence.
"...follow me later, I'll take you to a nearby hotel."
Kato Yusuke said without emotion, and then walked past her to the cashier.
A trace of guilt flashed in the girl's eyes, and she hummed lightly: "...Thank you."
