And after waking up, it was like thinking that as soon as I closed my eyes, what I would see when I opened them again would be the morning of the next day.

You will feel sad for being rejected by the environment.

Why - can't you just let me stay here a little longer?

"Taki-san... from now on... please don't be alone anymore... and everything must be smooth sailing!"

At this moment, Jin Zhixiu turned over, put her hands together under her cheeks and said to him.

"This sentence..."

Taki's pupils shrank. One night ten years ago, Sakura said these words to him in the same manner.

After so many years, I actually heard the same words from another person.

He still remembered that when he and Sakura were talking to each other in bed that night, snowflakes were falling from the sky outside.

Every time at this time, Sakura's gentle voice, enough to warm his cold soul, would be heard in Takiichi's mind.

"Heavy snow... can bury all the pain in the past..."

Then, he opened his mouth and his body began to tremble.

Why does it take ten years for someone to say such a sentence?

Even the two younger sisters who have been with him since childhood, even Nako and Hitomi, whom he has known for more than a year but have already formed a deep friendship, and many more people...

These different people may have confessed to him before, or they may have launched a fierce pursuit and still would not give up...

In his heart, nothing could compare to the impact of these words at this moment.

"Taki-san~~"

Once again, I saw the figure of that person in Taki Yi's eyes.

Perhaps it was the inadvertent words that once again opened the Pandora's box in his heart?

Jin Jixiu looked directly into his eyes, which seemed to be covered with a waterfall, and she mustered up the courage to stretch out her hand.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Suddenly, his thoughts that had drifted far away returned to his original body, and as he got used to the control he was gradually regaining, Takiichi responded.

"Before I fall asleep, can I ask Taki-san to do one thing for me? One last time!"

"What?"

"Hold me..." Kim Ji-soo said this with all her strength.

In the dim room, a desk lamp stood above the two people's heads, with dark yellow light and white moonlight outside the window.

The way Kim Ji Soo muttered with half-closed eyes looked like a scene from a movie.

At that time, after hearing such an "abrupt" request from her mouth again, Takiichi felt as if he was watching this girl's life from a distance.

"Even if I can't be like Sakura and let Taki-san think about her at all times...

But...because I was thinking about leaving soon, I longed for this very much..."

Jin Jixiu stared at her almost begging, "For the last time, please."

Staring at her delicate fingers that climbed onto his face and never left her face, Takiichi fell into silence.

The image of sleeping with Sakura every time kept reappearing in my mind, and then, a voice began to ask myself.

Do you believe that with the person you meet, at some point, her words and deeds will completely overlap with that of another person you care about?

Like two people under different skies, they would make the same move at a certain moment, but at this time, Long Yi saw the familiar desire in Jin Jixiu's eyes.

I know that it seems very despicable to reject other people's feelings, but because of Sakura, I have to do it.

So compared to feeling powerless now, at those times there was always an inexplicable power in my body urging me to refuse without hesitation.

There is no way out. If she refuses again, all her pride and self-esteem may be completely shattered.

"I'm sorry, because I wanted Taki-san to tell me 'I like me' before, but I later felt that this was forcing someone...

But...Didn't Taki-san ask, what do I want you to do for me?

If even such a request cannot be granted, then...please tell me within what range Taki-san will accept it."

Kim Ji-soo said in a choked tone.

She tried to stop herself from crying by applying pressure on the inside of her face, but this only made the tears stay uncontrollably.

Maybe I understood this truth from the beginning, but I had to do it.

I kept sobbing, and then I still couldn't control my tears.

Very close to her, Takiichi looked at her in silence as if he was crying while watching himself.

The long wait, the transparent and pure tears drop by drop is like the first rain coming to the world, watering Takiichi's heart bit by bit.

It seems that in the face of such tears, any rock-solid heart will melt and change its shape.

"You are so stupid..."

His eyes lingered on her face, and Taki sighed.

At that time, he seemed to see the cherry blossoms in the courtyard screaming with dissatisfaction.

Jin Jixiu felt the sensation of her heart being thrown into a meat grinder and being constantly stirred. She felt like she was being tortured by the cruelty of the world.

Just when I thought I would hear the answer of rejection again.

At that moment, I heard my heartbeat suddenly stop.

Takiyi took the initiative to close the distance with her.

The skin feels the warm and sympathetic closeness from the other side.

A touch of lightness would make people feel at ease, and the soothing flavor of excitement flowed continuously along her breathing, into her brain, and then dispersed to her limbs.

The changes in her body were very obvious, and the illusion caused made Jin Zhixiu widen her eyes unconsciously.

It's like, the world that has been in darkness suddenly ushered in the dawn of dawn.

Jin Jixiu, who had been crying with her head buried in tears, raised her face. In short, her eyes widened when she realized that there were hands tightly around her waist.

She no longer knew what it would be like to be afraid. At that time, she was as obedient as a cat and leaned against Taki Yi's chest naturally, and the expression on her face began to be replaced by satisfaction.

It was not until later that I forgot how much time had passed, and the two of them fell asleep hugging each other in this position.

The bright moonlight shines into the house, and this late at night, the young man and woman closely rely on each other for the last time.

Last night, Kim Ji-soo had a dream.

It’s no different from the dream I had back then.

But before I could see the light that broke through the gray sky, the figure huddled there disappeared.

As if she had lost her soul, she ran around the world looking for that figure until she confirmed that Takiichi had disappeared into that world like a wisp of smoke.

Kim Ji-soo collapsed on the ground, feeling like something had been taken away from her heart...

Is this the so-called feeling of losing the whole world? Like in reality, he felt the touch of being let go by Sakura.

After that, my vision went black and then white.

After waking up, it was still some time before dawn.

Kim Ji Soo was woken up, and when she woke up, there were traces of tears on her face that had not yet evaporated.

It was around three o'clock in the morning and the room was very dark.

But Jin Jixiu clearly felt that he was not by her side.

He lifted up the quilt to cover his body, sat up and looked around.

Until he saw Taki Yi's back standing in front of the window, staring at the pale yellow moon outside the window.

Pushing aside the blanket that brought warmth to her body, Kim Ji Soo put on her clothes and stood up.
