Section 21 "What are you looking at?" Yuri asked after taking a sip of his refreshing drink, who was sitting with Kouji on the lawn of Yoyogi Park.It is October now, and the leaves have not yet turned yellow. After the breeze passed, the leaves made a rustling sound.There seems to be a smell of apples in the autumn air. "Sky." Koji replied.Since he was sitting directly on the lawn, he could feel the moisture on the ground through his jeans.There was not a single cloud in the sky, it was blue and blue. "Forget it, let me ask another question. What are you thinking?"

Yuri asked, leaning his body on Kouji's shoulder. "I didn't think about anything." There are many people in the park, men playing with remote-controlled airplanes on the lawn, young mothers bending over to pick up something with their children, high school students practicing dancing to outdated music... "Geng Er, do you like me?" Yuri asked suddenly.Koji was taken aback, he looked at Yuri's face and replied, "Of course." Koji felt that he should like Yuri. "I feel like there's still a lot of time..." Geng Er lay on his back on the lawn with his head in his arms.This semester, the number of courses is much less, and the part-time job only starts at night. If you have time, you can also date Yuri.Generally speaking, this can be regarded as the normal life of ordinary students.

Koji thinks that he is quite conceited, so he never dreamed that Kimiko would ignore his own existence. In the past, it was Kimiko who begged him a lot, and the scene that day still makes Koji very annoyed. Koji wanted to see how Kimiko danced. Although he doesn't care about Kimiko's hobbies, the way she dances is still worth seeing.Koji really wanted to take a closer look at Kimiko, after all, he would not meet again in the future.He bought all the tickets, but unfortunately he couldn't see it.Kimiko should be the kind who is full of passion when dancing. Kouji and Yuri came out of the park from Shibuya, and the pedestrian bridge was full of graffiti.

Near noon, while eating a sandwich he made, Tohru thought about the strange meeting last night. The living room is very bright under the sunlight, and through the window, the Tokyo Tower in the distance can be vaguely seen. "I think it's better to introduce you to Asano." According to the arrangement of the epic, the three of them had a drink together at "Laffney" last night.Asano came a little late, and he ordered a glass of gin, which looked very similar to the vodka Shi Shi usually drank. "sorry I'm late." Asano took off his coat and handed it to the waiter, sat down on a chair, and then folded up the cuffs. He wore the same Rolex watch as Epic on his wrist.

The three of them clinked glasses, and seeing that half of the wine in the glass was drunk, Asano took a big sip, expressing apology and keeping pace with everyone. "I heard you're coming to the store to help?" Asano asked directly, "yes." After looking through the history of poetry, he replied.Shi Shi smiled slightly, "Will be my right-hand man." Asano and Shishi seem to be a well-matched couple. They are very similar in age, clothing, and the way they speak. It feels like a pair of rich people who have no children. "Her requirements at work are very strict."

Asano smiled and said jokingly, "Kids work hard." Tou sat there confidently.In his opinion, Asano's calm demeanor when speaking could not help but seem a little funny.You must know that I and Shi Shi have a heart-to-heart relationship, and today's meeting was also planned by the two of them.Asano is just a related person. Although Asano is very skilled in lighting Shishi's cigarettes, even though he tells Shishi things that only they can understand, in Touyan's eyes, he is just a related person involved. The meeting was over in just half an hour. "See you later."

After Asano finished speaking, he settled the bill with a credit card.Then walk out of the bar with the epic.Tou suddenly felt that the beer in front of him became so disgusting, it was the beer bought by Asano... "I'll call you." After Shi Shi finished speaking, he went out with Asano, probably to a certain restaurant. Tou finished the sandwich on the plate, trying to make a summary of last night's meeting - a preparation for the future made by himself and Shi Shi. The phone rang, and Tou picked up the receiver, telling himself that it would not be a call from Shishi.It's the way he answers the phone.The call was from Geng Er.

"Are you free right now?" Koji asked on the phone, "I'm with Yuri now, come out and play if you have time." "Where are you?" Koji told Tou that he was bored in Shibuya.He wanted to go to a love hotel with Yuri to have sex, but Yuri didn't want to go to that kind of place, saying that it would be okay if it was in Koji's apartment, but it would take more than an hour to go back to the apartment by car, so Koji had to give up.So, I called Toto. "To be bored? What a rarity." Tou joked.Koji said that he and Yuli would go to Toru's house if he didn't want to wait at home, but Toru felt that it would be troublesome, and finally, Toru arrived in Shibuya thirty minutes later.

They met in a place called Hachiko, where there were many idle young people, and the whole street seemed noisy and disorderly. "It's just 30 minutes. It's convenient to live in the city center." Koji said.In Touyan's eyes, Koji and Yuri are no different from those young people on this street, "It's very energetic." Tou said hello.Yuri seemed to be in a bad mood, but Toru didn't mention it. "How are you getting ready for work?" Geng Er asked. "Not yet." Answer through. "what are you doing?" Koji asked in surprise.Tou recalled Koji's insistence on going to a national university at the roadside newsstand in the past, and smiled and said,

"Don't worry about it so much." Maybe he is an elusive person in the eyes of Geng Er, and he thought to himself, maybe he has already decided on his employment direction. "It's been a long time since I came to Shibuya." Tou sighed while watching the advertisement on the electronic screen. They played billiards for an hour, walked the streets for an hour, and then went to a coffee shop for cold coffee.As he walked past the sporting goods store, Kouji said longingly, "I really want to go skiing." To Tou, everything seems to be something in a distant world.Moreover, it seems that I haven't seen the history of poetry for a long time. Yesterday and today seem to be separated by tens of thousands of years.

"If you're okay, why not stay with me at night." While in the cafe, while Yuri was going to the bathroom, Kouji said to Toru, "You don't work anymore?" "I'm on sick leave." While Yuri was away, he told himself that there must be something Koji didn't want Yuri to know. "Sorry, I still have to tutor students." "Then why don't you ask for sick leave?" Hearing Koji say this, Toru was surprised, "why?" Koji stared at Tou, and deliberately dragged out his voice, saying, "Understood, I finally understand." "What do you unserstand?" "I understand that you are not enough friends." Toru was about to refute Koji, but when Yuri came back, he had to shut up. What important matter is worthy of Geng Er taking sick leave to talk to himself, not to mention that this is not his usual style.Tou felt that at most it was about women again, so he wanted Geng Er to wait for him to finish his class before meeting, but he didn't have time to talk. Before parting, Tou said to Geng Er, "Wait for my call tonight." Koji said he understood, and entered the platform with Yuri. Really, nothing goes my way.Not only did Boss Yuli reject him unhappily, but even his best friend sent him a distress signal—for Geng Er, this was indeed a veritable SOS, and he just wanted to talk to Tou—ignoring it .The shadow of Kimiko always appears in his mind, and he can't forget it even if he wants to, so Koji has to suppress his thoughts desperately, and on the other hand, he has to always warn himself not to dial that familiar phone number. Suppressing his own thoughts——Koji was taken aback by this statement.In other words, I was afraid that I couldn't help thinking about calling Kimiko.So, no matter Yuli or Tou, he wanted to be alone with him, in case he really called. In the end, Koji decided to go to work.He was smoking a cigarette in the lounge, thinking about Kimiko all the time.He regretted that he didn't listen to what she had to say when Kimiko cried and called that day. The reason why he felt heartache was not because of the result of breaking up, but a simple heartache.At that time, I really should have gone out to meet her, even if I let Yuri wait in the room first... Kimiko is alone. Although she is a woman with a family, at this moment Kouji can really feel that even when she was with him, she was still alone.He was surprised why he hadn't realized this before. Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and then a working partner poked his head in and said, "Geng Er, there is a guest looking for you." Koji couldn't resist picking up the phone in the lounge and calling Kimiko.He understood now that he and Kimiko were attracted to each other because they were both alone.Although Kimiko has a husband and she has her own interests, they still have a deep sense of loneliness. Thinking of this, Kouji misses Kimiko even more.Even if he was beaten and scolded by her, he still wanted to see Kimiko right away.He misses the warmth of Kimiko, the warmth of her skin, and the warmth of her feelings... Kouji walked out of the lounge and found Yoshida standing at the cash register.Seeing Koji come out, Yoshida didn't grin like usual, but had a gloomy expression.Her original doll head was gone, replaced by what looked like a boy's hair. "your hair……!?" Geng Er couldn't help shouting.She was already thin enough, but when her neck was exposed, she looked even more miserable. "It's not all because of you..." Yoshida said without waiting to give her a ticket, and went straight to the seat at the bar. "I thought you were going to call me..." She spoke angrily, but tears were already streaming down her face.It happened so suddenly that Geng Er didn't know what to do. "I said don't cry, it looks like I bullied you." Yoshida sobbed with his face down and said, "If it's not you, who else?" "I've been waiting for your call. Since we made an agreement, why didn't we keep our promise!? I don't come here, and I don't go to your apartment. I've been waiting for you to call me..." Yoshida said with tears streaming down his face, his nose turning red from sobbing.Koji was a little overwhelmed. "Once is enough. Anyway, once or twice is nothing to you." Geng Er really couldn't figure out why this guy kept pestering him. "Because it doesn't make sense." Koji endured it, and persuaded him with as gentle a tone as possible, "Why do you have to be like me? It's completely incomprehensible." Yoshida tilted his head and asked, "Then you understand and sleep with me?" "I did not mean that……" Geng Er felt stupid, but he had to force himself to coax her despite his reluctance. "Forget it. Let it never happen. I'm running away from home now." Yoshida's nose was still red, and the tears were still wet, she looked at Geng Er and said with a grin. Geng Er was speechless all of a sudden. One o'clock in the morning.In Kouji's room, Yoshida said while drinking the little "Yuri's special" black tea left, "That requirement is cancelled. Now we are just cohabiting partners. If you try to touch me, be careful and I will kick you." Yoshida took out the pajamas from the suitcase and put them on, then took out the alarm clock and set the time. "I will stay with you for one night, and I will definitely not cause you any trouble." Yoshida said bluntly, "You've troubled me enough, enough." Koji muttered, "Just today." Hearing Kouji's question, Yoshida instantly showed a troubled expression, but he still said, "understood." She paused and asked again, "Can I use the phone?" "It's fine, but it's so late..." Geng Er himself listened to Tou’s phone message—Tu said that he was sorry for not being able to accompany Geng Er today, and suggested that he find another opportunity to drink in the future and ask Geng Er to call him back—afterwards, he gave up because he thought it was too late The thought of calling back. I really didn't expect this situation to happen, Geng Er thought, although he didn't expect this situation to appear today, but if the guy I'm afraid of really only stays with me for one night and then leaves, it might not be a bad thing .Anyway, on the day of the class reunion, she had already slept in her place for the whole night, so it didn't matter if she slept a few more nights. "Hey..." Although Yoshida's voice was not loud, it was extremely challenging. Kouji couldn't help but look back at Yoshida.Yoshida was pale and was listening to the other party.With her hair cut like this, she looks a lot like the boys in elementary school. "No, I'm not going back." Yoshida said. "I'm here with Geng Er now, so you don't have to worry about it." Koji suddenly shuddered, the person who was talking to Yoshida was none other than Atsuko, Yoshida's mother.Koji felt that Yoshida suddenly looked like a ghost. "You don't have to worry." When Yoshida said this, the tone was obviously mocking the other party. Atsuko seemed to be at a loss in front of Koji's eyes, she must have answered the phone wrapped in a quilt.Will she call her husband? Can she tell her husband the name Yoshida mentioned on the phone? Geng Er was really stunned, this was almost the worst situation imaginable. "OK, goodnight." After finishing speaking, Yoshida hung up the phone, looked at Koji and asked, "What's wrong?" "She'd get worried if I didn't tell her where I was, so I called." "It is impossible for me to forgive her." After finishing speaking, Yoshida Akira pulled the quilt over his body, and continued under the quilt, "Geng Er, actually I don't hate you at all. Who you like is your own business, but mother is different, she still has my father, and I..." Yoshida finished speaking in one breath, then jumped out of the bed again, and stood in front of Koji, "Believe it or not, my mother still likes you." Kouji couldn't say anything, just stood there without saying a word, staring blankly at Yoshida, who had short hair and a thin body.
