yuki...go home...

The scene represented by the above words flashed back countless times in Sakakibara's mind.

Watching her put away her clothes...Watching Uncle Ying help her tidy up the room...In the end, she didn't take anything away, even her favorite white cat doll was left here, and she left directly

Got this home...

Even though he knew that she was leaving and felt that his heart was empty, when he looked back and saw that there were Qiyue and Liuli behind him... he could not say anything to save her...

The reason is that he has no reason to keep her here anymore.

As grandpa said, keeping her here will only increase the pain of having her by his side. Since there is no way to accept her, he has no choice but to let her go.

Kaz... Kaz...

The sneakers scraped against the gym floor.

Huh...huh...

Breathing becomes short and rapid due to strenuous exercise.

Fujino Yoshiyuki was sweating profusely, controlling the basketball he just got. Time and time again, he reluctantly crossed the iron-clad defense. Seeing the opportunity in front of him, he was blocked when he shot.

So he turned around and looked at the other members in mid-air.

"Sakakibara——!"

The basketball immediately flew out like a sharp arrow and reached a place farther than the three-point line.

Raku Sakakihara caught the ball with an expressionless expression.

——Chi, hiss.

Looking at the basket in the distance, he jumped up.

His posture is agile and fast, like a cheetah pouncing before hunting. His body blooms in an elegant arc in the air.

The two defensive players around him hurriedly stepped forward to stop his shot, but in vain. He had already stretched his arms and jumped up.

--call out.

The ball quickly left his fingers and flew towards the basket.

The roar echoed in the gymnasium, teammates held their breaths, rival players looked desperate, and the onlookers raised their chins, all nervously watching the trajectory of the ball. At this moment, time seemed to have frozen - one second became incomparable.

Long.

——Bang...dong...dong...

As the basketball jumped lightly on the floor, a loud whistle symbolizing the end of the game immediately echoed in the empty stadium.

After a few seconds of silence, the stadium erupted into shouts and applause.

"Yes! Yes! Well done, Sakakibara! It's amazing! A super long-range three-pointer. Did you know that this ball stunned the opponent!"

The game was officially over, and after other enthusiastic teammates had left Sakakibara with a smile, Fujinogi walked over, laughed loudly and said this, and at the same time enthusiastically put his arms around Sakakibara's neck.

Sakakibara pushed him away in disgust, "Okay, okay, you're just like those guys who just stink of sweat and lean on me. If you don't spray some perfume when you go back, you're destined to be disliked by your childhood sweetheart."

"I know, Sakakihara, you just like to hang out with girls, right? How can the smell of sweat on a boy's body be as attractive as the fragrance of a beautiful girl's delicate body?"

Fujino looked so stinky, if he hadn't seen him handing him a bottle of mineral water, Sakakihara Raku would have given him a blank stare.

Sit in the rest area and take a sip of cool water.

Sakakibara glanced at the sky outside the gymnasium. It was gray...it was still a rainy day.

Countless raindrops meandered up and down the transparent skylight of the gymnasium, bringing a somewhat cold atmosphere.

"correct."

"What?" Sakakihara looked away from the sky and looked at Fujino Yoshiyuki beside him.

"...Why didn't classmate Tianhai come to see you play today?"

"..."

This sentence immediately stunned Sakakihara Raku.

The Tianhai classmate he was referring to was not Qiyue or Liuli, but Tianhai Zhixue who came to him to go home with him during his last business trip in July.

These days, Raku Sakakihara usually plays a few friendly basketball games with classmates from other classes during club time in the afternoon.

From that day on, Yuki had the habit of watching her play.

Not only Sakakihara Raku remembers it, but even Fujino Yoshiyuki also remembers Amami Yuki who would sit alone in the last row of the basketball court auditorium every day, silently watching him play, and waiting for him to go home with him.

But now...that seat...

Raku Sakakihara subconsciously looked towards the auditorium opposite, the last row, and the seat on the far right.

In the past, there would be people sitting there looking at me every day...but now - it's empty.

"Sakakibara?" Fujino noticed something was wrong with Sakakihara Raku in the past few seconds, and saw that his expression changed from calm to a smile.

"It's nothing," Raku Sakakihara said with a smile, holding a mineral water bottle in his hand, "It's just...she went home."

"...What do you mean? Tianhai-san...isn't he staying at your house?" Fujino Yoshiyuki tried to ask, but he lost his usual joking attitude and became serious, "By the way, what happened to me in the past few days?

I haven’t even seen her in class and she’s sick again?”

"...She will never come to see us play ball in the future. Her father took her home, and she will never come here to go to school again."

"..." Fujino Yoshiyuki opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time, "Transferred, transferred to another school?"

"Hmm..." Sakakihara Raku responded silently and nodded, "That's more or less the case."

Fujino noticed something was wrong with Sakakihara Raku. Hearing the sound of cold rain coming from outside the gymnasium, perhaps sensing that he was in a bad mood, he put his hands on his knees, followed his mood, looked up at the sky and said:

"Haha... That's... such a pity. To be honest, Sakakibara, I think Tenkai-san likes you a little bit, and I have always watched you play... Although you are dating another Tenkai-san,

Haha... You definitely can't respond, right, but she left suddenly, so you must still be a little uncomfortable..."

Fujino's emotion made Sakakibara smell the gloomy atmosphere of the rainy season.

The air and cool breeze blowing outside the gymnasium seemed to have a rotten smell like mold and moss.

"Sakakibara, your sister is here."

Sakakihara Raku followed Fujino's reminder and looked towards the entrance of the gymnasium, only to find Sakakihara Suzu standing there.

Wearing the school's uniform Western-style uniform and pleated skirt, the only difference is that he wears a beret on his head.

Ah Ling has always been outstanding in school.

Just standing at the entrance of the stadium, she has the aura of a star idol, which will attract people to look at her unconsciously.

Sakakihara Raku also looked at her like this.

It's just that she seemed a little unhappy and anxious, bulging her face and looking towards her.

As soon as she found out that she was actually playing basketball here, Suzu Sakakihara immediately strode forward like a soldier in formation, coming menacingly.

But it’s also a bit pretentious and cute.

Fujino is a very down-to-earth guy. When he saw that Sakakihara Suzu was here to make trouble for her brother, he left decisively after saying, "I'll still play here tomorrow."

When Sakakibara turned around, he realized that this guy had already picked up his schoolbag and was about to go home. At the same time, he saluted him. He was speechless.

This guy...

Before Raku Sakakibara had time to complain about this guy sneaking away like this, Suzu Sakakibara, the big star idol in the school, walked up to him.

Sakakihara Suzu put her hands on her hips and looked very angry.

"Did you drive Yuki away?"

"..." Sakakihara said nothing.

The old man said he would come to pick up Yuki on Saturday.

But the day after tomorrow, that is, last night - Thursday, he picked up yuki.

It happened that Suzu Sakakibara didn't go home last night. She worked overtime and stayed in a hotel. She only got the news that yuki sent her on her mobile phone that she was leaving.

So - Ah Ling, who was rushing back to campus for class today, found a good best friend who suddenly ran away, so she came over anxiously.

Raku Sakakihara stared at the half-drunk bottle of mineral water in his hand and replied:

"I won't drive her away."

"Then why did Yuki come back to Tianhai's house? I only found out the news yesterday! She can't even practice well."

"...There are many reasons."

Sakakihara Suzu didn't understand, "What do you mean? There are many reasons for that? Isn't it just because of grandpa, but also because of brother, you let her go...?"

Sakakihara Raku did not raise his head, but stared at the rotating mineral water bottle in his hand and replied:

"Yuki returns to Tianhai's house, and grandpa is just one of the factors. Ah Ling, it's not like you don't know the fact that she likes me. Do you think I can accept her?"

Sakakihara Suzu was stunned for a moment as she listened. She thought for a moment. After a moment of hesitation, she squatted down, sat down next to him, and replied: "...Definitely not. There are Qiyue and Liuli behind you."
