Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

Kai Uesugi couldn't help but be charmed by her warm and comforting face.

"Wasn't my husband handsome during the competition?"

"Handsome," Hanabi Hanabi replied sweetly, "So handsome, so handsome!"

"So... does that mean Hanabi-chan is acknowledging that I'm your husband?"

"No, that's not true!" Hanabi Hanamaru smiled faintly. "Kai-kun is still Hanabi's boyfriend."

"Shouldn't he be her fiancé?"

"Yes, they are..."

"Shall we go out and have some fun? We could go to a love hotel together."

"No! Kai-kun should go home now. He's covered in sweat. Go home and take a shower!"

"You can shower at a couples' hotel too."

"No! I have to go home!"

"Then... I want Hanabi-chan to help me wash."

"Okay."

"Hmm...you agree?"

Hanabi Hanamaru nodded, lightly jumped in front of him, and stood under the shade of the tree, looking up at him with her little face:

"But... this only applies to washing Kai-kun's back."

"I'm content as long as I'm here." Uesugi Kai smiled. "Then let's go home now!"

"No, no!" Hanabi Hanamaru quickly pulled him back.

"What's wrong now?"

"We should go buy groceries first, and then go home together."

Kai Uesugi smiled at the girl holding his hand beside him: "Okay, whatever you say."

Hanabi Hanabi happily clung to his arm, like a spoiled little girlfriend, and they laughed together under the shade of a tree as they walked toward the supermarket.

The final is in two days.

Kai Uesugi's mind is probably focused on the wedding on October 10th, which is a month from now.

Choosing a wedding style is a difficult decision; he wants to see Hanabi in a wedding dress, but he also wants to see her in a white wedding kimono.

I want to see Hanabi smiling happily, calling me "darling" with a blissful expression at our wedding.

Perhaps because she longed for that scene too much, Uesugi Kai always dreamed about her married life.

They got married, exchanged vows, and kissed happily in front of family and friends.

From then on, they lived a sweet life in the ordinary routine of each day.

She racks her brains every day about what to eat for her next meal, and she pouts ambiguously every day.

When the time is right, then start having children.

Little Fireworks was shy and didn't expect to succeed, but she got pregnant very quickly.

This is my first pregnancy, and I'm feeling a bit anxious and uneasy.

But children must eventually be born and come into this world.

So, she lived her life while also experiencing the daily routines of pregnancy.

As Hanabi's belly grew bigger day by day, she was in a pretty good mood, but Uesugi Kai developed prenatal anxiety because he was worried about her.

On the day the child was born, Uesugi Kai excitedly rushed into the ward. He entered with worry and fear, only to see Hanamaru Hanabi holding the two children and smiling at him. The doctors and nurses smiled and told him: Mother and child are safe.

Uesugi Kai was relieved and looked at the newborn baby together with Hanabi Hanamaru, who was sitting on the bed.

As the child grew up, he became a little mischievous, but he also gradually learned to walk and call out "Dad" and "Mom," which made them both very happy.

Time continued to move forward, and the younger sisters grew up, each with their own lives and goals. They would worry about the difficulty of their homework, and although there were occasional mishaps such as being liked by someone, every day was fulfilling and happy.

Life goes on, the children grow up, and they grow old.

They spent a peaceful and happy first half of their lives together, leaning against each other on the mountain, enjoying the afterglow of the sunset and chatting about the little things in their daily lives.

But people will eventually die, and that day will eventually come after a life of happiness.

That day, surrounded by his children, Uesugi Kai watched as Hanabi Hanabi smiled at him before leaving, and he couldn't help but hug her and cry his heart out...

Parting is still parting.

From that time on, Uesugi Kai meticulously wiped away the memories they shared every day: her photo albums, her paintings, the gifts she gave herself...

Sometimes, when I see her innocent and adorable smile in her photo album, I can't help but hug the photo to my chest, imagining the warmth and fragrance of her body lingering in my nostrils, and then I curl up and sob.

Memories of decades, bit by bit, she calls out her own name every day... Kai-kun.

Despite having a seemingly perfect life, Uesugi Kai was on the verge of collapse when he saw her leave.

......

As Uesugi Kai lay in bed reflecting on her dreams, she realized what she feared most—separation.

He didn't want to say goodbye...

He wanted to continue this happy time forever.

Kai Uesugi turned over in the night and, with the help of the starlight outside the window, clearly saw Hanabi Hanabi's soft face under the moonlight.

Uesugi Kai gazed at her sleeping face and reached out to hug her.

She lay in his arms, her petite body radiating fragrance and warmth; she was still real, still beautiful...

Fireworks...

Her thoughtfulness and gentleness...make you want to lean on her...

###Chapter 385 We Are All Cherishing Time###

"Okay, okay, to the right, a little more to the right."

The photographer smiled with satisfaction at the girl in the lens, then snapped a picture with his index finger, freezing the moment in time.

Kai Uesugi stood beside the photographer, silently watching Hanabi Hanabi in her wedding dress in front of her.

She stood on the green lawn, with the blue sky and white clouds behind her, holding a bouquet of lilies. Her gentle smile in front of the camera was exquisite and touching. As the summer breeze blew, her white gauze dress reflected a bright silver brilliance in the sunlight.

Kai Uesugi is not a person who likes to cry, but when he saw Hanabi wearing a wedding dress, tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably.

Even though this was just a wedding dress fitting.

"I feel it could be even more perfect..." Mrs. Uesugi said, examining Hanabi Hanabi's wedding dress. "What do you think, Mieko?"

Holding Hanamaru Hanayu in her arms, Mrs. Hanamaru looked at her daughter in front of her and said thoughtfully, "Hanabi-chan, stand a little more to the right, and lower your hands holding the flowers a little more."

"Is... this... like this...?"

"Yes, yes, relax your hands, be more natural."

Hanabi Hanamaru stepped slightly to the right, her face flushed. Her wedding dress was soft and graceful. It was her first time wearing a wedding dress, and she was in front of the person she liked. She was still a little unaccustomed to it, and even her movements while holding the bouquet were a little awkward.

"Okay, that's perfect now." Mrs. Hanamaru looked satisfied.

Hanabi Hanabi took her position, but at the same time she saw Kai Uesugi looking at her; he was watching her.

Kai-kun... I bet you really like how Hanabi looks now...

So she smiled at him.

It was this unintentional smile that was captured by the photographer.

Kai Uesugi saw it; he saw where his heart lay, and he saw the stirrings that had accompanied him day and night.

......

Next, it was the two's turn to take a photo together.

As Uesugi Kai stood before Hanabi Hanamaru, his heart pounded as he saw her pure white wedding dress.

"Kai-kun's heart is beating so fast..." Hanabi Hanamaru said softly, facing him, in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Hanabi's heart beats just as fast..."

The two looked at each other, then looked away, neither speaking again, seemingly returning to the atmosphere of when they first started dating and couldn't even find topics to talk about.

Finally, under the direction of the two wives, Uesugi Kai reached out and hugged Hanabi Hanabi's waist.

The two grew closer as a result, and Hanabi lowered her blushing face shyly because of his hands on her waist.

"Hanabi-chan! Look up, you need to look at Kai!" Mrs. Hanamaru called out with a smile from the other side.

"Kai-kun... what should we do...?"

"What should I do...? Let's try looking up first..."

Hanabi Hanamaru first tried to look up at Kai Uesugi, but after realizing that he was also looking at her, the pure and shy girl quickly buried her face.

“I’m not usually this shy,” Uesugi Kai said.

"Because...because I wore a wedding dress today...Kai-kun...Kai-kun wore one too..."

"Also what..."

"I'm also very shy..."

"I... how could I... it's because... the fireworks were very beautiful today."

Hanabi Hanabi heard his words and felt him hugging her waist.

Uesugi Kai was somewhat hesitant to look directly at her beauty in her wedding dress, but he also knew that as a man, he should grit his teeth and put on a brave face.

"Hanabi... will soon be a wife herself, so she needs to be more mature. So... relax, okay?"

"Um..."

Hanabi Hanamaru's eyes sparkled with a soft light. She understood his words, and after a moment, she nodded weakly and began to slowly try to raise her eyes, using that faint light to gaze at his face.
