It was night, and Ayin beside me had completely fallen asleep, and there was a vague sound of breathing. I couldn't sleep for a long time, and I just kept looking at the ceiling. The ceiling gradually changed from darkness to the pattern on it.

.

I raised my right hand and opened the panel. The four words "Master of the Harem" flashed in hot scarlet, which made me uncomfortable and creepy, as if someone suddenly pulled the bed sheets while I was sleeping soundly.

Closing my eyes, I can really feel my heart swinging. It is a great ups and downs that transcends sadness and loneliness, and fundamentally shakes my own existence.

Only when I put my hands on Ayin's body, the ups and downs were bearable.

I greedily absorbed some substance from her that made me clear, in order to maintain that I was still me.

I was shaken unusually. This shake came so inexplicably, but it really made me feel incredible.

What is going on in my mind at this moment?

What I should be thinking about is the girl next to me and her future.

But what actually kept appearing in my mind was Saori Konishi, and the unknown man holding her hand, whose back could only be seen.

This fantasy refused to stop no matter what, and became the source of my inability to sleep. Just closing my eyes, I seemed to be able to hear the gorgeous and solemn wedding march, see my ex-wife in a wedding dress, and make a vow with a strange man I didn’t know.

kiss scene.

I always feel...

Can't calm down.

Whether it is the beating of the heart or the sound of blood flowing in the blood vessels, there are many sounds. The noise made up of these subtle sounds is like a symphony that suddenly resounds around the world at two o'clock in the morning. People all over the world are at a loss.

He woke up from his dream and looked at the beam of light that led to heaven and was surrounded by musical notes at a loss.

If you can't calm down, there is nothing you can do.

He put his arms around Caiyin's waist, leaned on her thin shoulders, and smelled her shampoo-scented hair.

Even so, my heart is still restless, like an old tractor that has been started. Every time it vibrates, the parts in my body start to wail in pieces, as if it is on the verge of disintegration at any time.

I have never hated myself as deeply as I do now. On this spring night, my heart is wandering in the wind and snow forest, unable to find my way back.

"Kazuto-kun..."

Suddenly, a colorful voice called me from above the forest. The voice seemed to be blessed with special magic power, reaching deep into my heart and soothing my trembling restlessness.

I opened my eyes, and Ayane Sakura who was lying next to me woke up at some point and was looking at me with a worried look on her face.

Her arm reached out from the quilt and quietly touched my cheek, stroking it gently, with a faint sadness in her eyes.

"Why...are you crying again?"

again?

Are you crying?

I?

Her slender fingers brushed across the corners of my eyes, stained with transparent droplets of liquid, which made her fingertips wet.

It's true.

I'm really crying.

Why?

I opened my mouth and could feel my Adam's apple rolling, but I couldn't speak smoothly.

She looked at me tenderly, reached over her head, kissed the tears on my face, and stroked my hair gently.

"It's okay, it's okay. There's nothing to be afraid of, good boy, good boy..."

Loneliness still pricks my heart from time to time. Even the water I drink and the air I inhale are filled with long thorny needles. The girl next to me reaches out with a smile and removes the thorns in my heart one by one with her bare hands.

Pulling it out, the bright red and hot blood gushes out from her fingertips, turning into dark purple mottled patches that stick closely to my beating heart.

Probably, I will never be able to eliminate it in my lifetime.

"Have you calmed down?"

"……Um."

Leaning against her soft chest and listening to the sound of her beating heart, indescribable tranquility came quietly.

"Thank you...Ayane."

Apart from thanking her, I don't even know what I can say to her at this moment.

"Don't say such a thing, am I not the future Mrs. Mogami?"

"Um……"

"Kazuto-kun."

"Um."

"Do you like me?"

"Ang...I like it."

"How much do you like it?"

"I love it so much that the petals of the cherry blossoms follow the spring breeze without hesitation."

"I just love hearing your incomprehensible metaphors." She smiled softly and touched the corner of my mouth, then took the initiative to put her finger into my lips, and I took it in my mouth.

"Um."

"Kazuto-kun, still can't sleep?"

"perhaps."

"You are really full of energy. Do you need my help to use up some of it?"

"…………"

"If you don't say anything, just assume you accept it."

…

…

The next day in the afternoon.

After the dubbing is over.

I stuffed the script into my bag and prepared to leave.

After leaving the building and looking at the clear sky, even I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that it was such a rare good weather.

"Totsuka-kun, where are you going next?"

A voice came from beside me.

I looked intently and saw that it was the farm girl who was working on the same set just now.

"Well... first find a place to have a drink, and then go to the set of "The Road to Death"." I answered truthfully.

"What a coincidence. I also have this arrangement. Can we go together?"

Ms. Taneda's smile is still very gentle, exactly the same as in my impression. I think she is the kind of smart person who does not show her emotions on her face.

That's why I feel so gentle and incredibly comfortable in my interpersonal interactions with her.

"It doesn't matter." I said.

"Oh! Are you treating me to a treat?"

"Alright."

I was walking in front of me on the streets of Tokyo in March. She quickened her pace and followed me. The spring breeze gently rolled up her long hair. Her snow-white dress clung to her lower abdomen and thighs. Her curves were so beautiful that I immediately moved. He opened his eyes and looked at the lonely telephone pole in front of him with some guilt.

There are many pedestrians on the road. It is still the spring break period, and there are many young and girls who look like students. Everyone looks very happy, laughing and playing.

Adolescence has its own troubles, but also its own youth. On this exciting afternoon in March, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, while I was thinking about what happened last night, feeling helplessly stuck in my heart. In that snowy forest, I felt that I was the only one who was out of tune with this scene.

"The weather has finally improved."

Miss Taneda kept up with me. I couldn't tell whether she was talking to me or talking to herself.

"Yeah." I responded.

She opened her hands and spun around as lightly and happily as a high school student. I thought that she might be more suitable to talk to the group of students over there. Being with people like me, on the contrary, it reminded me of the youthful atmosphere in her body. Covered up.

"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"

"Totsuka-kun, do you like spring?" she turned to me and asked.

"Well... I guess I like it."

"Me too, spring is really refreshing. It seems to have washed away the gloom of the whole winter. If possible, I really want to stuff the warm sunshine into the pillowcase cotton and have a good sleep. What's the matter? It's more important than sleeping, Totsuka-kun, do you think?"

I listened silently, not knowing why I smiled.

"yes."
