I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

Uehara Toru felt a little happy when he mentioned her.

"She was my only friend before, but she was not very smart. Every time I asked her a question, she couldn't answer it. Then, no matter what I said, she said I was right, even though I knew she just wanted the ice cream or lollipop in my hand."

"I really miss her a little bit."

Toru Uehara seems to be passing the buck, but in fact he is just reminiscing about his past.

I used to think that those were days of confusion and control, but when I recall them now, a hazy filter appears and I feel that there were still many beautiful things.

I guess I only want to remember good things in my mind.

"Then why do you say there is something wrong with your character?"

"Because I was always affirmed and never denied, I felt that I was the most powerful person in the world and was quite arrogant."

Uehara Toru smiled and said, "Now that I think about it, I probably deserved a beating when I was a kid."

Ueda Reina's eyes were full of tenderness: "Looking back with my current perspective, I would only think she was cute."

Uehara ＠:％』４８？ }∽〖Kugutoru didn’t deny this: “It’s true that I’m cute. When I was a child, my mom loved to hold me and show me off everywhere.”

When Ueda Reina heard him admit this bluntly, she covered her mouth and laughed.

What an interesting person, Toru Uehara.

Toru Uehara looked at her laughing and gradually relaxed, and then he officially started to talk about the previous topic.

"Tell me the reason for the thing you asked just now."

"Because, I have indeed been followed before."

"And more than once."

When Ueda Rena heard this, her mood suddenly fell from the peak to the bottom.

"Originally, I wanted to experience a career. At that time, I was not short of money and I didn't have much pressure. I also felt that my path was right, so I just looked for jobs to try."

"A lot of the jobs may not necessarily be the roles that you will be applying for at the audition, but I will still try them. After all, just in case, it can be considered as a accumulation for the future."

"The previous jobs were not bad, they were all physical work. For physical work, no one cares who you are. They only care whether you can do it and complete the task within the specified time."

"So nothing happened, but the job of being a teacher at an arts school... is definitely the job I regret the most, bar none."

"A role like a teacher usually requires some affinity and a sense of responsibility, and what they teach is related to acting. I actually quite like that feeling."

"My voice acting job wasn't going well, but I was able to find a sense of accomplishment in other jobs. I was a little overly lost at that time, and even regarded this job as my own job. I took care of the students, tutored them, and was very careful and attentive."

"However, many of these students have family problems, so I will also help to resolve them, but the result is that I have attracted unnecessary trouble."

"At first, I was alone. After being discovered by seven people, I didn't dare to come over. But slowly, as their numbers increased, they became more and more bold. Until one day, when I walked across a street, seven or eight people would turn their heads to look at me at the same time... Then I realized something was wrong."

"And it's creepy." Toru Uehara narrowed his eyes slightly, pinched Kotaro's big fat face with his hands and rubbed it.

Kotaro let him do whatever he wanted, looking very comfortable.

"So later I realized that they had become obsessed with me and had invaded my life. They even thought that my responsibility and concern for them in class was my love for them, but I was not good at expressing it."

Uehara Toru's tone turned cold. "I started to fight back. I found the police, left evidence, and found their parents one by one. I told them about this matter. They begged me to forgive them. The parents hoped that I would not make it public. They also gave me a large sum of money, but I refused."

"However, they didn't really accept any media interviews, but they did go to the Metropolitan Police Department to calm down."

After the words fell, silence fell between the two.

Toru Uehara stopped rubbing Kotaro and patted its butt, signaling it to leave for a while.

Kotaro meowed to show his gratitude for the treat.

He walked away wagging his tail.

After listening to this, Rena Ueda was stunned for a long time. She turned her head and looked at Toru Uehara, her eyes full of pity.

"Is that why you deliberately have such a bad attitude?"

"Intentionally?" Uehara Toru was stunned for a moment: "Not intentionally, I just really hate it and am fed up with it."

"Hey, Toru-kun."

"Ok?"

"What does Xiaohua usually call you?"

Uehara Toru recalled: "She called me different names at different stages. In elementary school, she called me Brother Toru. In junior high school, she called me Toru. In high school, she called me handsome. Before I left, she called me a bastard."

“Pfft...Hahahaha——” Rena Ueda laughed and wiped away her tears.

I don’t know whether she was crying with laughter or was touched by what Toru Uehara said just now.

"Che Jun, are you trying to make me laugh on purpose?"

Uehara Toru: "Not really. Hana does have a sense of humor."

Ueda Reina wiped the red corners of her eyes and continued to ask: "So what does her voice sound like when she speaks?"

"Hmm... it's a little rough. In high school, she joined the women's basketball team and was the captain, so her voice almost became hoarse from shouting. But it's not a male voice. Anyway, it's quite impressive."

"Like this?" Based on Toru Uehara's description, Rena Ueda began to simulate.

Shigahara Tetsu: "It's still too soft. Her voice has a very strong foundation."

"That's it?"

"It's still a little bit off. Let me think about it. She's actually not very good at talking. She speaks in segments, with inexplicable pauses..."

"so?"

When Toru Uehara heard Rena Ueda's imitation, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

“Not at all.”

“Is the gap so big?”

Uehara Toru smiled and said, "But the last one is barely close."

"Cough cough."

"Che, I think that what happened before was not your fault, but don't lose faith in everyone because of this."

"It's just that you were unlucky at that time and met a bad person, but there are still many good people in this world."

Reina Ueda seemed to be imagining and imitating Xiaohua's tone to comfort him.

Toru Uehara looked at her, and his eyes gradually became gentle.

"It's still completely different."

"Really?" Rena Ueda also felt a little helpless.

"But, thank you."

"You're welcome." She looked at Toru Uehara and noticed that his eyelashes trembled slightly. Then the corners of her own mouth tightened slightly, revealing a barely perceptible emotional fluctuation.

-

Cooking time.

Uehara Toru said as he was cutting vegetables: "I kind of regret it."

"What do you regret?"

"I didn't teach Xiaohua how to use a mobile phone at that time."

"So she didn't leave a phone number when she left. But it's strange, she didn't ask my parents for my contact information... Maybe she was really angry?"

Ueda Reina said with a smile: "Don't worry, you have already planned to go back this year, right?"

"Well, let's talk to her when we meet."

"But it's a pity that you have to go home this year, otherwise I could introduce you two to each other."

上『≈＿·qi#∨ner越費≈～群%：Tian Reina was still washing vegetables, but because of this sentence, she was forced to stay in control for a few seconds. If she didn't know that what Uehara Toru said had no special meaning, she would really...

With her long hair swaying gently in the breeze, Ueda Reina watched the clear water from the faucet constantly washing the vegetables, taking away the dust and impurities on their surface. However, in this quiet moment, some subtle distracting thoughts seemed to be mixed in her heart, making her mood no longer as clear and transparent as the water.

Because I understand more about the impurities produced by Toru Uehara.

“So, there is a chance.”

"If it's not possible this year, maybe there will be a chance next year?" Rena Ueda looked at him with a smile and said softly.

Uehara Toru nodded: "Yes, there is still a lot of time anyway."

"There is ample time."

Kotaro was lying on one side and looking at the two of them. He had already attained enlightenment, or been enlightened.

Although they are not stacked together, they are already represented as being together.

It turns out that humans don't need that kind of form from our cats.

It doesn’t matter, as long as Dad brings me something delicious next time.

Kotaro yawned and began to roll on the ground.

……

After lunch, Rena Ueda and Toru Uehara moved out of the kotatsu at home.

Although the weather is not right to use this yet, after all, the temperature is not that low now, but we still make preparations in advance.

After placing it in the center, Ueda Rena suddenly remembered something.

"Tetsu-kun, how about reading a book together?"

"Ok?"

"You said that you didn't understand many books before and you weren't interested in them, but now you can pick some that you are interested in and read them to relax."

"That's fine." Toru Uehara stood up and started picking books from the bookshelves on both sides of Rena Ueda.

Ueda Reina gently picked up the book "Dance! Dance! 948429×5°: Dance!" that Uehara Toru had just used as an example.

Open it and skip the preface.

The first sentence on the first page.

"I always dream about the Dolphin Hotel."

As Rena Ueda flipped through the book, she felt as if she had traveled through time and space and met Toru Uehara from his high school years.

The complaints he just made still seemed to echo in his ears.

The autumn breeze blew into the house with a hint of coolness, adding a touch of comfort to this quiet afternoon. Two adults, each holding a book, sat in front of the kotatsu and read quietly.

Uehara Toru closed his children's fairy tale and looked up at Ueda Rena, who was lying across from him. She had fallen asleep on the table, still holding the book "Dance! Dance! Dance!" in her hand. This scene was so peaceful and warm that one couldn't bear to disturb her.

Uehara Toru chuckled.

“I just said that most people wouldn’t understand it.”

At this moment, in Rena Ueda's dream.

She also dreamed of concrete scenes.

“I dreamed of my home.”

"Home itself embraces me. I can clearly feel its heartbeat and body temperature."

When Rena Ueda pushed the door open, she saw Toru Uehara waiting for her with a smile.

"Welcome home, Rena."

"..."

Reina Ueda suddenly woke up from her sleep and hurriedly stroked her cheek with her hand, only to find that the book that was originally open in front of her had disappeared at some point, along with the figure of Toru Uehara.

As she stood up, the thin blanket that had been covering her body slowly slipped off and landed gently on the floor. She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look out the window. The night was quiet and deep.

The corners of her mouth rose slightly, with a gentle smile, and she spoke softly to the night sky.

"Goodnight, Toru-kun."
