The plum rain in early June is variable in temperature and temperature. For the past few days, the air has been moist and cold.

I always go to play basketball these days, maybe it’s just because the rainy season is too dull, right?

...that must be the case.

The faint sound of rain came from the balcony of the living room, and Raku Sakakibara carefully pushed open the door of Amami Nozuki's room that had been closed for two weeks.

A "squeaky" sound.

The light penetrated into the room along the gradually expanding crack in the door, and fell on the dim edge of the bed.

The sheets were illuminated.

Sakakibara looked at the bed with the brown quilt cover and felt that the neat appearance of it now... was a bit unreal...

You must know that this room has always been a mess since Zhixue moved in.

Guitars were placed in a mess, clothes were piled up...skirts, jackets, T-shirts, pajamas, pants, pants...either crumpled and piled on top of each other, or hanging alone on the edge of the bed.

And what about her?

There was just one person, barefooted, sleeping sideways among the piles of randomly stacked clothes.

Sakakihara Raku has become accustomed to this scene.

I'm used to the way she sleeps so peacefully and sweetly among the clothes.

...

Obviously very sloppy.

But every time he entered the room and saw her sleeping appearance, he had no intention of disturbing her.

certainly.

Afterwards, he would still give the girl a lesson and tell her to remember that after wearing her clothes, she must take them off every day and let her wash them off!

Even if you don’t wash it, you still have to put it in a dirty clothes basket!

Don't throw it around, and don't put it on your head when you go out to say you're hungry and want to eat!

certainly...

Yuki never remembers these things.

The room is still a mess.

It's always been a mess.

Sakakihara Raku talked to her a lot about this.

But now...

The room has been tidied up and will no longer be messy... but I... will have an inexplicable feeling that I have lost something.

...

The rain kept falling.

Sakakihara turned his eyes and suddenly saw a small gap in the window that was still open. The cold wind came in and the rain soaked a large area of ​​​​the desk.

"...Why are the windows not closed?"

He quickly walked over and closed the window.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, he turned around and realized that there was still the "Life Manual" that Yuki had returned to him on the wet desk.

When I think about it, Yuki would cherish this notebook with her every day.

I recall the scene where yuki cherished it so much.

Raku Sakakihara subconsciously came up with the idea of ​​​​protecting this manual.

He quickly found a rag to wipe away the rainwater on the desk, pulled up a chair and sat down, turned on the desk lamp, and used the light to carefully separate the wet corners of the paper page by page.

He found a pack of paper towels and inserted new dry paper towels into the wet pages to absorb the moisture.

...

"It's not good..."

Although this notebook has a leather cover, there are still some raindrops soaked into the paper along the corners of the cover.

Sakakibara opened it and looked at it, and found that the corners of the notebook were seriously wet from the rain.

Many pages were stuck together and wrinkled.

Among them, many handwritings written with gel pens became larger and blurred due to water stains.

...

Seeing the handwriting above that was blurred by the rain, Sakakibara felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Above are my suggestions and comments to yuki.

In order to make the regulations not just boring text, I occasionally draw some small expressions and kaomoji... These are all things I learned from Liuli and A Ling.

Yuki likes these little expressions drawn very much.

Seeing the blurred expressions and the blurred words, Sakakihara Raku could even recall the obedient way he had written the regulations and asked Yuki to remember and recite them to him.

yuki is very good...

Every time she finished writing, she would recite it very seriously... Although after finishing reciting, she would always say to herself "fried ice cream."...

Just thinking about how stupid she looks when she talks makes me smile.

And now these...are almost wiped away by the rain...

...

Sakakihara closed the manual and pressed it gently. After pressing, he opened the book and took out all the tissues. Then he stood the manual on the table and opened it in a fan shape.

After completing this series of actions.

Wait for the manual to dry naturally.

'If Zhixue sees the manual like this... I'm afraid she will die of sadness, right?'

Sakakihara couldn't help but think so... He looked back at the room again and observed the things left by Yuki in the room.

Yuki basically took nothing with her, except the necessary clothes and the guitar her mother left for her.

Everything else is put aside here.

It would be a pity to lose these things.

Including the white cat doll.

...Sakakihara Raku remembered that yuki loved to hold him and would sleep with him every night.

This is very childish.

But the essence is that she is insecure and lonely.

Sakakihara picked up the white cat doll, placed it in front of him, and stared at it for a long time.

In the white cat's lazy expression, he seemed to see the snow that day...

"By the way, Zhixue has been at school for so long and you haven't made any new friends yet?"

Sakakihara Raku remembers asking her such a question when he woke her up to eat early one morning.

It was a bright day, and the solar energy shined directly through the gauze curtains and onto the edge and corners of the bed. I sat on the bedside and helped Tianhai Zhixue, who had just woken up, comb her messy long hair.

She was sitting in the brightest place, while Amami Nozuki was swinging her little feet back and forth. Sakakibara clearly remembered that the morning light slanted across half of her tender cheeks. After hearing her voice of inquiry, she turned her head and looked back blankly.

Own.

The sun...illuminated her clear eyes.

"It's good to have fun."

After saying that, she paused, then turned back and looked at her "foot swinging game" of swinging back and forth alternately.

It would be nice to have fun...

After hearing this, Sakakihara Raku was filled with emotions.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Although I have no friends, I have fun by my side..." The complete sentence is probably like this.

...Think about it carefully, did she say this out of 100% trust in herself?

Listening to the seemingly endless sound of the rain outside the window, Raku Sakakihara put down the white cat doll and picked up the Yuki Ono doll on the bookshelf.

Staring at the natural expression of the Snow Girl Doll, I was once again stunned...

"finished--"

His vision gradually blurred, and a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
To be continued...
