Time flies by in an instant.When we broke up, Chaomei wrote down her mobile phone number on a piece of paper and handed it to him, "If you have anything to do, contact me!" Naoki took it while thinking about what "what" meant.In exchange, he also wrote down the phone number in the room and gave it to her. "But probably not on weekday evenings." "By the way, you said you were working part-time at the store in Roppongi, right? Is it okay to go to that store next time?" "Of course." He removed the boss's business card from his wallet, which had a map printed on the back.

Naoki went back to the apartment that night, drank some whiskey from the store and lay down, recalling every conversation with Asami Nakajo, sketching her expression in his mind.Frankly, I still want to see her again.However, I also thought about what it would be like to see her again.She seems to be the daughter of a rich family. I heard that her family is in Denenchofu, so she must have grown up in a wealthy family, and she is not suitable for herself at all.In addition, if her parents knew about her family situation, they would definitely object immediately. Stop daydreaming!He told himself.If you blindly embrace any dream, it will definitely become a shameful thing.

Then he smiled wryly again, what was he thinking!Asami Nakajo will definitely not take you seriously.It's just to tell you a mobile phone number, don't be beautiful! The memory of her should be weak when he wakes up tomorrow morning, he thought so, trying to fall asleep. However, the memory about her did not disappear as easily as he expected.Rather, it became clearer as time went by.Fragments of several sessions kept popping up in his mind. Even so, Zhigui still didn't want to call her.He had a premonition that if he did that, it might become an irreparable situation.Although he felt agitated whenever he thought of her, he believed that sooner or later he would calm down.

One night in the past ten days or so of the fraternity, Zhigui was busy in front of the bar as usual.A couple of male and female guests walked in.He was surprised to see the two guests, the woman was Asami Nakajo. Of course not by chance.She must have brought the man here according to the map on the back of the business card.However, she did not speak to Naoki.I just sat down next to that person in front of the bar and looked around the store. If it's not what others say, it's the shop's rule not to take the initiative to talk intimately. Zhigui is the same as treating other customers, first hand over the drink list.

She ordered bourbon and soda, and the man said the same, a little nonchalantly. The man looks bigger than Zhigui. He is wearing a dark gray jacket with high-necked underwear inside. He seems to go to the hairdressing salon frequently and maintains his hairstyle perfectly. It seems that it will look ugly if it is longer or shorter. nature. Zhigui tried not to look at the two of them as much as possible, but it was inevitable that a few words would fall into his ears.I couldn't understand the details, and it didn't seem like a happy conversation. "I said don't waste any more time, it's better to discuss the next step with each other." Hearing Chaomei's voice.

The man muttered something in reply.It seems to be saying: "If you don't try it, you won't know." "I've come to a conclusion, and I don't want to go around in circles with you anymore." "What is going around in circles?" "What's the point of going on like this? Isn't it going around in circles?" "Maybe you already have a conclusion, but I didn't accept it!" "I don't think you can accept it, but there is no way." "Hello!" Asami greeted Naoki, he was startled, she pushed the empty large glass to the front, "same."

Zhigui nodded and picked up the cup.Asami is calm. After that, the two continued to talk, both of them kept their voices very low, Zhigui didn't hear anything.However, the atmosphere surrounding the two was still somewhat gloomy. When the second glass of whiskey was empty, Asami stood up suddenly. "Well, stop! There's no point in saying any more. I'm going back." "Wait a mininute!" But she didn't listen to the man, put a 10,000 yen note on the bar, picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair, and walked out of the store.The man probably felt that it was not decent to chase after him immediately, so he still sat down and finished his drink.

Not long after the man walked out, the phone in the store rang.When Zhigui answered, it was Chaomi's voice: "Is that guy gone?" "Just left." "Really. I'll go there again." After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone. After a while, Asami returned.Sitting on the chair just now again, he smiled at Naoki. "I'm sorry! You don't feel well, do you?" "That's nothing...he, is it okay?" "Never thought I'd be back here again." She frowned. "It seems that the contradiction is deep." "Yeah," she snorted.

"I think he expected in advance that I would say break up." "There is still a boyfriend who is closer! Said to be an ordinary friend." "I don't think he's a boyfriend anymore, it's just made clear today." "Bringing here, do you have any ideas?" "Ah, no longer be afraid for myself." "fear?" "The man just now may have said it. I was afraid that he would tell some emotional words and be moved by him unconsciously, so I came here. There is Wudao here, I think you are listening by the side, he will not casually Nonsense. Thanks to this, I didn’t change my mind until the end.”

"What's so good about breaking up?" "It's finally over, and I feel much more relaxed." After a few cocktails, Asami Nakajo headed back. She has been coming here now and then since that night.Most of the time I came with my friends, and sometimes I came alone, but I never came with a man. This is a woman who is bold, bold and surprisingly childlike.When Zhigui talked with her, there was a feeling as if something sleeping in his body was awakened. Despite constantly reminding himself, Naoki is still attracted to her and is convinced that she also has feelings for him.

Naturally, the two started dating. I don't know when he came back from the first date, he asked her to go to his room, and the first time he asked a woman to come to his room. The two hugged each other tightly in his narrow and dilapidated room, talking about their love.
