I work as a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

Chapter 300 Kuta Returns
It was one o'clock in the afternoon, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa had just finished his lunch.

I have no appetite, so I just bought something to deal with it.

Halfway through, I had a small chat with Hisada on the line. Most of the time, Hisada was sharing the meeting, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa managed to talk a little bit when he raised his spirits.

His current mental condition is indeed not good.

It was seven o'clock in the evening when Hisada returned to Tokyo, and it hadn't been long since that time.

But he still didn't think about what he should do and how he should tell Jiu Tian.

It's like being home alone as a kid and doing something wrong... like breaking a vase - maybe it should be worse - accidentally burning the house down and then sitting in the rubble waiting for your parents to come back... or something , is probably such an uneasy mood.

In such a disturbed mood, Hirakawa Zhewen leaned on the sofa, and gradually fell asleep nodding his head amidst complicated thoughts.

He is really tired.

Whether psychological or physical.

Psychologically, it is naturally because of this matter.

Physiologically... because last night, for obvious reasons, holding Shiori Shinohara, the girl's soft body was in her arms, she couldn't calm down no matter what, and she didn't get enough sleep.

Amid double exhaustion, Tetsufumi Hirakawa fell asleep.

There was a little sunshine in the afternoon, and it was not as gloomy as it was in the morning. There was a pale light in the winter gold, and entered the living room.

In the slant of the sun, time goes backwards a little bit.

On the way, two cats ran down from upstairs, one running in front and the other chasing after, came to the living room to play around for a while, and disappeared again.

In the quiet afternoon, quietly advancing towards the final moment.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen woke up to the meowing of cats.

When I opened my eyes, my head was a little dizzy. The outdoor sky was a little yellow with the sun, and it was getting late.

He seems to have been asleep for a while.

Rubbing his aching neck from sleep, Hirakawa, who was not yet fully awake, glanced at Michael who was lying next to him and licking his paws. Not far away, Chimera and Wuchang were eating cat food around the food bowl.

Quickly looking back, he picked up the phone from his hand and glanced at it.

Time, 16:37.

It is indeed late.

About three hours of sleep?

However, speaking of it, he seems to have something, right?

Seeing the moment of time, Hirakawa Tetsufumi's dazed brain started to work again, and then...

It is hard to see for an instant.

There are still 7 hours and 2 minutes before 23 o'clock.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Naturally, there are some things that must be faced, no matter how much you feel that you don’t want to face it, no matter how much you feel that it is too early, but the reality is like this, and it does not depend on people’s subjective thoughts.

How should I explain this to Hisada?

During the short three days of the business trip, I had an unclear relationship with another girl and even slept together.

"..."

Hirakawa Zhewen washed his face to wake himself up a little.

Then, for the last two hours, he spent in a silent daze.

Then, at about [-]:[-], the sky was already dark, Hirakawa Tetsufumi went out, and the destination was Tokyo Station.

……

Speechless and uneasy, at the exit of the station, Tetsufumi Hirakawa stared at his phone, waiting for the arrival of seven o'clock.

From time to time, he also responds to Kuta's news on the line.

Kuta Moshu: [Zhewen, I'll be right there]

Hirakawa: [Well, okay]

Hirakawa: [waiting for you to come out]

Kuta Moshu: [I haven't eaten dinner yet]

Hirakawa: [I have not yet]

Kuta Moshu: 【Then let's eat together later? 】

Hirakawa: [OK]

……

It was seven o'clock.

There were no more messages on the line, Hirakawa Tetsufu put away his phone.

You should have gotten out of the car, right?
Now walking towards the exit.

Seeing the people gradually appearing, Hirakawa Tetsuwen gradually broke away from the state of anxiety and uneasiness, and became calmer.

Maybe this is the calm before the storm.

It may also be because, in the coming time, he has been forced to accept this fact... There is no perfect solution to this matter.

Perhaps this can be called powerless peace of mind...

It's like a candidate who has finished the last exam. Although the grades have not yet come down, he has already clearly known the reality that he is about to fail the subject.

What else can be done?

"..."

"..."

"Zhewen, why are you in a daze?"

"..."

The voice suddenly rang in the ear, the familiar gentle voice... Hirakawa Tetsuwen felt his heart beat suddenly.

His eyes refocus, shifting slightly to the left.

She has a gentle oval face, slightly curved eyes, and a shallow smile that is not hot but reassuring.

The two strands of hair hanging down on both sides of the cheeks swayed slightly, and Moshu Kuta pulled the suitcase, and stroked the shaking hair with one hand.

"What are you thinking? You didn't even see me coming out." Kuta Moshu blamed with a smile.

"..."

How to describe Hirakawa Tetsuwen's state of mind at the moment?

It was obviously only three days, but perhaps because of the sinking dream, at this moment he always had the feeling that a long time had passed.

Staring at the gentle face of Hisada Moki in front of him, Hirakawa Tetsubun wanted to embrace her in his arms.

He restrained himself.

"Moshu, are you here?" A faint smile appeared on Pingchuan Zhewen's face, "What else can I think about? I'm thinking about you."

He said, reaching out to pick up the suitcase in Kuta's hand.

"How could I not have found me?" Hisada Moki handed the suitcase to Hirakawa Tetsufumi, and then naturally took Hirakawa Tetsufumi's other free hand.

Hirakawa Zhewen hesitated for a moment, grasped the warm hand in his hand, and interlocked his fingers.

"I miss you so much," he said.

"Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"All right--"

Kuta Moshu took it seriously for now, "Then let's go?"

"Ah."

Hirakawa Tetsuwen walked forward with the suitcase in one hand and Moshu Kuta in the other.

"To my house?" Kuta Moshu asked.

"Hmm." Hirakawa Tetsuwen responded.

"What about dinner?"

"What do you want to eat?"

"I haven't eaten Zhewen's cooking for several days."

"Then I'll do it for you."

"it is good."

"..."

"..."

"Zhewen." After a short silence, Kuta Moshu spoke again.

"What's the matter?" Hirakawa Zhewen glanced at her, only to realize that her eyes had been looking at him.

"..." She blinked her eyes, smiling slightly, her eyes were talking.

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsuwen understood.

He approached her, lowered his head, and touched her lips lightly.

"All right."

"uh-huh."

The governess is satisfied.

……

I took a taxi home with Kuta Moshu, got off the car together, bought some ingredients at a nearby supermarket, and then came to her house together.

The dinner was agreed, so naturally Hirakawa Tetsufumi made it... But even though Hirakawa Tetsufumi asked Kuta to rest, Kuta came to the kitchen to do it together with him.

"It's okay for the meeting, it's not too tiring, besides, Zhewen, haven't you been on shift for a day?"

"..."

Although he actually asked for a day off today...

Faced with this statement, Hirakawa Tetsuwen could only silently agree.

The two worked together, and it didn't take too long for dinner, and soon, they went to the table together.

"I'm gonna start now."

In the voice of Hisada Moshu, the two picked up the chopsticks together.

At the dinner table, Hirakawa Tetsubun didn't speak much most of the time, but just listened to Hisada Moki's opening and occasionally responded.

In this way, in Hisada's gentle voice, the dinner ended.

"That's right, Zhewen."

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa together.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi leaned on the back of the sofa, Hisada Moki leaned on his shoulders, with both hands wrapped around his arms.

"Well, Mo Shu, what's the matter?"

In this posture, the arm naturally touched it... It's just that today's Hirakawa Tetsufumi doesn't have the heart to feel this kind of touch.

"Did you miss me these few days when I was away?"

"Of course." Hirakawa Tetsufumi said.

"How much do you think?"

"Did you ask me this question on the phone this morning?"

"Then you didn't answer it then?"

"That...it's like..." Hirakawa Zhewen thought for a while, and then said, "It's like Christmas, a child with socks hanging by the bed, squinting his eyes all night without sleeping, waiting for Santa Claus to arrive, Think like this."

"Hey..." Kuta Moshu raised his face from Hirakawa Tetsufumi's shoulder and stared at him, "Did you see that?"

Hirakawa Zhewen also looked at her and smiled slightly.

"Didn't see Santa Claus, but guessed it."

"..."

Kuta Moshu snorted softly.

"Then if you expose it like this, there will be no surprises, Zhewen."

"Although Christmas has passed, my Jasmine will definitely bring me a gift when she leaves the house. You can guess this kind of thing."

"So believe it?"

"of course."

"Ok."

Hisata Moki lay back on Hirakawa Tetsufumi's shoulder again.

"Then can you guess what gift it is?"

"...how do you guess this?"

"Guess."

"...Okay." Hirakawa Zhewen reluctantly replied, "Hmm..."

"clothing?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Hirakawa Zhewen looked at Kuta Moshu and blinked: "Did you guess it right away?"

"..."

As if he felt that this was boring, Kuta Moshu stretched out his hand and pinched his face.

Hirakawa Zhewen smiled helplessly: "I can't do anything about it, can I?"

Kuta let go of his hand.

"What about you, Zhewen?"

"Didn't it mean that there will be no surprises if it is exposed?"

"You're not unprepared, are you?"

"Then you don't believe me too much, don't you? It should have been our first Christmas since we were together, of course we have prepared in advance."

"get ready?"

"Of course." Hirakawa Tetsufumi said.

"En." After a reply, Kuta Moshu hugged Hirakawa Tetsufumi and did not speak.

The next conversation was after the sound of their breathing echoed in the quiet room for a long time.

"Zhewen, how is work?" Kuta Moshu asked.

"Probably, not too much." Hirakawa Zhewen replied.

"Didn't it go well?"

"Well... how should I put it... It was not bad at the beginning. I thought of the theme, got the basic setting, passed the review, and started to create. However, I got stuck when I was writing the script recently."

"That's it...it seems that you have to get used to your new job."

"Yes."

"..."

"..."

Chatting about trivial matters, the topic quickly stopped.

Hirakawa Tetsubun breathed as smoothly as possible, quietly feeling the touch of the body at hand.

Tranquil atmosphere, gently beating heart...

To be honest, Hirakawa Zhewen really didn't want to break such a light and warm atmosphere.

A gentle and lovely teacher, I don't want to hurt her.

But ah...

The reality that has happened cannot be erased, if such a seemingly beautiful tranquility is made up of deceit and lies...

Is this really tranquility?

"Moshu."

Staring at the dark TV screen in front of the sofa, the lights of the living room reflected it, and also projected the blurred silhouettes of the two of them into it.

"Hmm." Kuta Moshu answered him on his shoulder, the voice was very close to the ear, and it was gently transmitted to the ear.

Hirakawa Tetsubun leaned over and rested his side face on Hisada's head.

"I have something to tell you."

"Well, I know." Hisata Moshu responded naturally, without any surprises, "That's what you said, the things you've dealt with in the past two days, right?"

"……yes."

"Is it cleared up?"

"No." Hirakawa Tetsufumi said.

"Didn't you say tell me after it's settled?"

"Probably...it can't be solved."

"That's it..." Kuta Moshu nodded, "I probably guessed it."

"……guessed?"

"It's like Zhewen, you can guess right away that I will prepare a gift for you. In the past two days, you have been hesitating about something, and you will explain it to me after it is resolved... I must have some guesses. Of course, I was just a little confused at that time, and I still thought, I should trust you."

Kuta Moki said.

"But after coming out of the station and seeing your absent-minded appearance, these bad guesses are almost confirmed."

"Zhewen, do you know? When I saw you at the station, I thought of the last time...I went to Kyoto to find you."

"So, it's about the same thing?"

"Did I guess right?"

"..." Hirakawa Zhewen didn't speak for a while.

"..." Kuta Moshu didn't speak anymore.

Sure enough... Although he never thought of using lies and deceit to hide it, but ah, he really couldn't hide it from this teacher who knew him well...

Hirakawa Tetsubun remained silent for a short moment.

"Then why didn't you ask me?" he asked.

"I'm waiting for you to take the initiative to tell me that you have to take the initiative to admit that you have done something wrong." Kuta Moshu replied.

"……Um."

"..."

"..."

Leaning on Kuta Moshu's body, feeling her holding his hand, and smelling a faint, fresh and reassuring fragrance from her body.

Hirakawa Zhewen's heartbeat finally became chaotic at this moment, and it hurt a little.

"I……"

……

……

……

When Hirakawa Tetsuwen returned home, it was already past ten o'clock.

He pushed open the door by himself, closed it gently again, and then walked silently past the cat who came to greet him, and walked to the living room.

He sat down on the sofa, leaned back, and stared at the light on the living room ceiling.

Silent for a long time.
