Chapter 562 A Premonition About May

May 12th, Monday.

With less than twenty days left until the end of May, Jun Matsue faced the back door of the classroom and this thought popped into his head.

Every month has an end. He is not one to feel sentimental about spring or autumn, nor does he have any special feelings about May like he encountered Mona Lisa. The reason he cares so much is only because of the repeated urging in his ear by a certain girl.

The boy sighed at the closed door, then pushed it open.

Tomatsu Yuka sat in her seat as usual, but with a slight difference: she had an orange and white striped mini pendant hanging on the side of her schoolbag.

"Is this the garden eel?" Jun Matsue sat down and took the initiative to ask the girl.

“Yes, it’s pretty cute, isn’t it?” Tomatsu Yuka nodded and took out another black and white spotted garden eel keychain from the drawer.

"This is for Jun-kun."

"Didn't Mochizuki come to school with you today?" she asked.

“She went home on Sunday.” The boy reached out and took it.

He squeezed the soft velvet pendant, then looked at its bright, sparkling eyes, and felt quite relieved.

"That's really strange." The girl said thoughtfully, "She seems to have been coming to school with you lately, hasn't she?"

Matsueda Jun's face was noncommittal. "Of course I have to go home."

Although he said that, he was more inclined to believe that Wangyue went home yesterday to talk to her aunt about relationship issues.

The boy looked up and handed the pendant back, saying, "Let's swap these two garden eels."

"Huh? Why?" Tomatsu Yuka blinked.

"Is that just a crying face? I think this cute expression suits you better."

He felt that if a girl was in a bad mood and saw her dolls crying like that, she might feel even sadder.

"Is that so?" Tomatsu Yuka smiled sweetly. Although she didn't know the boy's specific thoughts, she knew that Tsunku was definitely concerned about her.

"Then let's change it!"

The girl bent down and took off the charm from her bag. Their outstretched hands overlapped in the air—their skin touched by each other had a slight temperature difference, but this difference made their connected souls feel more comfortable.

Jun Matsue looked at the last keychain he received, a garden eel crying with its eyes closed. After thinking for a moment, he finally hung it on his pencil case.

"You must have had a good time the day before yesterday, right?" the boy asked.

“Yes!” Tomatsu Yuka nodded with a smile. “Dad took me to the aquarium and the Tokyo Skytree. He said he often comes here to relax and see the penguins and the sky these days.”

"I feel like I'm starting to understand him again."

"Afterwards, we went shopping in Ueno, and my dad bought me a few clothes—he thought my aesthetic sense was still stuck in junior high school, so he bought me all kinds of very fancy dresses and skirts."

Lolita Tomatsu... Jun Matsueda imagined it in his mind for a moment, and it didn't seem so bad.

"When it was almost time to get off work, we picked up my mother, and the three of us had dinner together. Finally, we went for a walk along the Sumida River to enjoy the breeze."

"Hmm." The boy nodded. "The night breeze the day before yesterday was indeed quite comfortable."

"Right?" Tomatsu Yuka smoothed her long hair behind her ear. "My parents' sudden enthusiasm makes me a little uncomfortable." "They said they'd come to the parent-teacher conference in a couple of days."

"All in all, it must be a good thing." Jun Matsueda stared at the garden eel on the pencil case. "Like I said, compared to before, your life will definitely become happier."

"Mmm!" The smile on the girl's lips became even more pronounced.

When Mochizuki Haruka entered the classroom, the two people sitting in the back row were still chatting, but the topic had changed from weekend activities to math problems.

She walked past the two of them and quickly noticed that the boy's pencil case on the table had an extra keychain. The girl raised an eyebrow and exchanged a glance with the striped garden eel who was shedding tears.

"You're here quite early today." Jun Matsueda put down his exercise book and greeted her.

"Thanks to you waking me up every day." Mochizuki Haruka sat down by the window with her schoolbag. "It feels like it's hard to wake up late now."

The boy smiled and said, "That's a good habit."

The girl pouted, drew the curtains, leaned on the table, and squinted her eyes contentedly, looking at the boy's profile.

Last night she took a bath with her aunt. The two of them soaked in the spacious bathtub, drinking their bedtime drinks and chatting about the girl's sweetheart.

Auntie's final advice was that since Songzhi had already made his stance clear, there was no need to act too hastily. Such pressure would only push him into the arms of other women. When dealing with men, it's easier to win them over with a woman's pitiful and aggrieved demeanor after breaking her promise than with repeated urging before the promise is fulfilled.

"And I'm here too." As Wang Yuehua said this, she patted her chest, her ample bosom rippling softly in the bath.

"If you're worried, I'll put pressure on him."

Although what she said made sense, Mochizuki Haruka, who was lying in the classroom at the moment, had no intention of listening to her aunt.

The reason is simple: the woman sitting on the other side of the pine branch seems to be getting closer and closer to him.

So Mochizuki Haruka was naturally uneasy. She had seen how cold Matsueda Jun was to Tomatsu Yuka, yet this girl was like an unkillable cockroach, gradually returning to his side.

Modern girls certainly can no longer confidently claim that Tomatsu Yuka is just a rag.

So patience is useless, Mochizuki thought with her eyes closed.

Patience will only make the pine branch more and more soft-hearted, giving others a chance.

The bell for the morning meeting rang, drowning out the noisy chatter in the classroom. Kominato Shoko entered through the front door with a folder in her hand and coughed lightly twice on the podium.

"There are a few things I need to explain to everyone before Wednesday's parent-teacher meeting."

"After the grade-level meeting, there will be a three-way discussion, which involves a survey of everyone's progress, so parents are required to attend..."

It was something that didn't really concern him, so as Matsueda Jun listened, he quickly turned his gaze to the window.

Mochizuki Haruka wasn't paying attention either. She was lying on the table with her eyes closed, her cheeks rising and falling slightly. It was unclear whether she was really asleep or just resting.

After staring at the girl for a while, the boy looked up; the sky outside the window was clear.

As he watched the flocks of birds flying across the sky cut the clouds into all sorts of strange and wonderful shapes, Jun Matsue felt a clear premonition rising in his heart.

May will pass by quickly.
