"Really? Then which high school are you going to?"

"Little Goldfish, you have never even called me "Senior", why are you so concerned about my affairs today?"

I took a bite of the red apple and looked at her with my peripheral vision.

When I asked what was on her mind, the girl immediately became panicked. Even the lace on the edge of her skirt trembled: "I, I didn't... didn't care about you!"

Just when I was about to refute her——

"Senior...Senior...wait! Senior Azi! Please wait!"

I paused for a moment, then looked at Ponyo. She was also a little confused, turned her head and immediately smiled: "It's Kaguya..."

She originally wanted to raise her hand to say hello, but she put it down halfway and became angry again: "Humph, you are very happy to leave me to find the senior."

Turning around, I saw Kaguya running over panting.

Kaguya looked at Ponyo and me apologetically, not knowing how to speak for a moment.

I raised a smile and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything else? Kaguya-san?"

Kaguya blushed because she was running. Because of my question, she finally remembered something and hurriedly took out a mobile phone decorated with bamboo from her schoolbag. She was a little undecided: "Sorry, Azi-senpai."

.Sorry, Jinyu Ji...because I wanted to talk to Senior Wan Nianzhu so much, I forgot to take a photo with you."

"So? Have you talked to the senior?" I imagined what Wan Nianzhu's face in the next class would look like after hearing Kaguya's confession, and asked half curiously and half jokingly. Jinyu Ji also half-opened her eyes.

He looked at Kaguya quietly with his eyes closed.

Kaguya's face turned even redder: "This..."

She specially put on a beautiful kimono today, and she looked like someone who couldn't help but want to get close to her.

"Hahaha, it seems it was successful." Jinyu Ji couldn't help but laugh.

"Failed." Kaguya lowered her head, and the shoulder that was holding the phone also dropped.

The corner of Jinyu Ji's mouth that was still smiling was stiff and twitching: "What, why did it fail?"

Princess Kaguya said in embarrassment: "As soon as I saw the senior, I was so nervous that I couldn't speak..."

"It's almost comparable to the kappa classmates in your class, little goldfish." I can't forget the time when Jinyu Ji dragged me to run errands for the kappa late at night.

But, if you don’t talk about love, how can anyone know about it?

"Anyway...anyway...it just failed." Kaguya sighed sadly.

"But, the contact information should be here soon, right?" I asked.

"Eh? How do you know, senior sister?" Kaguya's eyes lit up again.

...It’s better to say that I’m going to confess my love than to ask for contact information. Originally, this was what Kaguya and Ponyo planned to accomplish today. What’s more, for contact information, just ask the class next door.

Wan Nian Zhu’s classmates know this, right?

"It's just a guess." I threw the apple core into the nearby trash can, clapped my hands and said, "Since I already have the contact information, let's take a photo. There will always be opportunities in the future."

Kaguya's frustration lessened a bit and she smiled: "Yes... yes! Senior!"

In the end, Ponyo and I had dinner hosted by Kaguya. Although I was embarrassed, there was nothing I could do about it. Kaguya kindly asked for another packaged meal for me, and finally said goodbye to me very sadly.

Although with the development of science and technology in this era, it is not true that we will never see each other again because of distance, but I know that separation brings distance between hearts. Once we no longer continue to be together, such alienation will slowly occur.

.Maybe Ponyo and Kaguya are exceptions?

Taking out the keys and carrying the packed food, I stood in front of the house, took a deep breath, and quickly entered the house and closed the door.

I was changing my shoes at the entrance, and I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when I saw a pair of women's shoes at the door. Then I immediately ran to the room with the food in my arms.

"cold--"

"Shh."

A woman wearing glasses made a silent motion towards me at the door, and I saw Rin already asleep on the bed. The charm of an adult woman was fully reflected in this psychiatrist.

She stood up gently and walked to the balcony. I placed the food in my hand next to the medicine on the low table and tiptoed to the balcony.

"Doctor, thank you for coming to see her today."

Otherwise I really don't know what to do.

"It's okay, I just have a rest today." She waved her hand, and then looked at me with her eyes that were looking at the scenery outside the window, "What about after graduating from junior high school? What are your plans? Continue studying? Or find a job?

"

To be honest, I haven't thought about what to do or what plans I have.

Just muddle along.

"I don't know either." I avoided her sharp eyes and looked at Rin, who rarely slept peacefully. "It would be too much for Rin to leave Rin behind just to go to high school. I

I don’t know what she was thinking when I was away, and I don’t know what will happen to her..."

"But with your grades, giving up high school is equivalent to giving up the opportunity to go to college. You should know the difference, right?" she added.

I suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, raised my head and said with a smile: "It's okay, there will always be a way. Even if I can go to high school, I will have to take out loans for college in the future. You also know what my family is like."

"It's because your family is like this, so I hope you can consider this matter carefully." She also looked at Rin, "Her condition has been relatively stable for a while, but this is only a short period of time with the help of medicine.

Stability - she needs to find a stable hope and firmly believe that this hope will be realized, so that she can have the idea of ​​​​living."

"I know, thank you doctor." I bent down to thank him, still with a smile on my face, "I can ask you to come and see Rin in the future."

"...Have you become accustomed to wearing a mask? Aren't you tired of wearing it in front of me?" she asked lightly.

But I don't know it myself.

"Forget it." She seemed helpless, "You should go to bed quickly, I'm leaving."

She left the balcony, and I immediately followed her gently and escorted the doctor to the entrance. Watching her leave, the room became quiet again.

It's so quiet that it's disconcerting.

I returned to Rin's room, locked the balcony firmly, and closed the curtains. After confirming that there were no dangerous items in the room, I gently closed the door.

"Good night, Rin."

Such quiet nights are not common. I cherish them, but I also find them difficult.

"Buzz!"

The cell phone in my trouser pocket rang. I paused for a moment, and then immediately took it out. In addition to the messages sent to me by others on the line, there was also a text message.

I clasped my hands together and held the phone tightly in my hands.

Lord God, please bless me for receiving the news that I am a temporary worker!
