I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

"Is it that cold?"

Toru Uehara leaned against the wall and looked at Sakura Ayane with a slightly strange look.

Sakura Ayane had a stern face but also stopped.

"There is a search ♀>`un: two*〉nine four four three five six... four what's going on?"

Toru Uehara looked at Sakura Ayane, who was obviously unhappy with him, but still couldn't figure out where he had offended her.

However, if he can't figure it out, just don't think about it. Toru Uehara doesn't want to waste his energy on this.

"I heard there are a lot of good new movies coming out recently, do you want to go see them?"

"..." Sakura Ayane didn't move her mouth, but her head already showed something.

Seeing that she was still able to communicate, Uehara Toru smiled and said, "Let's go, I drove here today."

-

After getting in the car and fastening her seat belt, Sakura Ayane remained silent and only looked at his face through the reflection of the car window and the rearview mirror.

In fact, compared to whether she takes the initiative or not, what Sakura Ayane cares about most is whether there is a place for her in Uehara Toru's heart.

Even if they are friends, if they are really friends, their attitudes will definitely be different.

As long as there is proof of this, she will feel much better.

After entering the underground parking lot and parking the car perfectly, Uehara Toru looked at Sakura Ayane and said, "Let's go."

"Ah."

After entering the mall, the two of them kept a distance that was neither too far nor too close, and Toru Uehara was really a little uncomfortable with it.

If it were normal, Sakura Ayane would definitely be calling him "Senior, Senior" sweetly, walking beside him with a green tea smirk, and asking him to buy this and that.

Although he probably wouldn't buy it for her, the interactive process had left a very deep impression on Uehara Toru.

The two first went to a cinema and had to choose from seven or eight films.

"Which one do you want to see?" Uehara Toru asked casually.

There are many types of films, including classic Hollywood popcorn blockbusters, horror films, niche art films, and animated films.

Sakura Ayane took a quick look and actually had no interest in any of them, so she just picked one at random.

"That's it."

"The wail of the dead?"

"Horror movie, okay."

"Here's the money." Sakura Ayane took out her wallet and handed it to Uehara Toru.

Shi Uehara Toru was silent for a while, but still chose to take it.

……

There was still some time before the show started, but Toru Uehara just sat aside with Sakura Ayane, watching the little kids not far away playing arcade games happily.

Suddenly, Toru Uehara spoke.

Wu: “I’ve had conflicts with others before.”

“It started with the video game console.”

"I was living in the countryside at the time, with very few means of entertainment. Finally, my neighbor's older brother, who was about to move away, left me a game console. I was immediately addicted to it, playing from morning to night, whenever I had free time."

"Then my childhood sweetheart Xiaohua was very angry when she saw that I ignored her because I was playing games."

"So she sneaked in and waited for me to go to the toilet at school, then she opened my school bag and smashed the game console."

“…” Sakura Ayane really wanted to complain when she heard this, but she held it back.

"I was very angry at that time, and after she came back, I had a fight with her on the spot."

Uehara Toru smiled and said, "Then I realized I couldn't beat her."

The corners of Sakura Ayane's mouth were already rising, but she was still holding it in.

"I can't help it. Xiaohua started growing up early when she was in middle school. She soared to 1.7 meters tall. I was just over 1.6 meters tall at that time. She weighed 30 to 40 kilograms more than me. It's normal that I couldn't beat her."

"But since then, Xiaohua and I have been in a complete cold war."

"No matter how you look at it, this is all her fault. The game console was given to me by someone else, and she had no right to break it. Moreover, she even had a fight with me. At the time, I thought that this was definitely the end of our friendship."

"And then what?" Sakura Ayane couldn't hold it in anymore and asked.

Uehara Toru looked at Sakura Ayane with a smile: "Then it was the afternoon of the second day of our cold war."

"I went to buy a popsicle and was about to eat it, and I happened to meet Xiaohua at the store."

"I was actually still angry at the time, but seeing her staring at my popsicle, I cut it in half and gave it to her."

"As soon as she took the popsicle and started eating it, she started crying loudly, her voice was like a pig being slaughtered, her nose was running and her eyes were tearing up. She apologized to me and said she was sorry for breaking my game console and would definitely compensate me in the future."

"At that time, I realized that I didn't really like playing games that much, it was just the novelty that was causing the problem."

"Sooner or later I'll get tired of it, and then I'll have to play with Xiaohua again."

Sakura Ayane's eyes became dull as she listened to this simple story.

Toru Uehara returned to silence again. He turned his head to look at the ticket gate of the cinema and waited for the ticket checking time.

……

Check in and enter.

Toru Uehara and Ayane Sakura were sitting in the sixth row, and the two seats, 8, were right in the center.

It's obvious that the film was not very well made, otherwise the attendance wouldn't be so low.

Toru Uehara watched the movie carefully just for fun and found that even the most basic jump scare was a mess.

After yawning out of boredom, Toru Uehara observed Miss Sakura beside him out of the corner of his eye.

Miss Sakura's eyes were on the movie screen, but it was obvious that she was in a daze.

At this point, the ghosts in the movie are chasing the protagonists, trying to force them into a desperate situation, and then there is a very formulaic escape plot.

But Miss Sakura started to cry as she watched.

Uehara Toru sat quietly on the side, and when he saw the tears falling from her eyes, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. But soon, he took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and gently handed it to her.

Sakura Ayane was slightly startled. She took the tissue, carefully unfolded one, and began to gently wipe away the remaining tears in her eyes.

The movie is over.

The protagonist was killed by a ghost, and everyone was happy.

It was an unconventional ending for a bad movie, which was good for Toru Uehara, but for many viewers, it was undoubtedly history.

After Uehara Toru and Sakura Ayane walked out of the cinema4, they prepared to find3 a restaurant to have a meal. :

But Sakura Ayane took the initiative to reach out and grab the corner of his clothes.

Turning around, you can see that the tip of Miss Sakura's nose is slightly red because of crying. Her eyes seem to be still immersed in the emotional fluctuations just now, with a hint of moist luster, which makes her look particularly moving.

"how?"

"I want to eat popsicles."

Uehara Toru blinked and smiled.

"it is good."

-

But where can I find popsicles in this big city? At least I can’t find the same kind found in rural stores.

Those are memories that belong only to that place.

Toru Uehara and Ayane Sakura walked around but couldn't find a popsicle that could be split in half.

In response, Miss Sakura stamped her feet angrily and made a comment.

"Tokyo is useless!"

"Indeed, it's not as good as the countryside."

Other native Tokyo residents who heard the two men's outrageous remarks couldn't help but look at them strangely.

Sakura Ayane puffed up her cheeks and said, "Let's go and look for it in the next store."

"Okay." Toru Uehara followed behind Sakura Ayane without asking her why she was so obsessed with the popsicle.

At this time, just follow.

Why ask so many questions?

Finally, hard work paid off. Sakura Ayane finally found the popsicle she wanted that could be broken into two pieces in a large chain supermarket.

After finishing her shopping and paying the bill, she looked at Toru Uehara who was standing at the door with his eyes closed.

She pursed her lips, walked forward, broke it and handed it to him.

Uehara Toru took it with a smile and said, "Thank you."

"……Um."

So the two of them ate popsicles while shivering outside as the weather gradually turned colder.

Sakura Ayane didn't know what the meaning of doing this was, and it looked very silly, but she was extremely happy in her heart at this moment.

Much happier than before.

I finally finished eating, but my hands were frozen and my palms were red.

Plus, my stomach was not feeling well either. After all, I ate the popsicle on an empty stomach, and I felt like I might get stomach upset again when I got home.

Sakura Ayane looked at the popsicle wrapper and asked softly, "So, what is the meaning of that story you just told me?"

"I don't know either." Uehara Toru answered honestly.

"I just think that it's better for friends to keep things simple and say whatever they want to say, instead of keeping it to themselves. Even if the conflict was huge, as long as it didn't involve any principled issues, it could be resolved with a popsicle."

“That’s the best kind of friendship I can think of.”

"And you spend the least energy, you can just get rid of it with a popsicle, right?" Sakura Ayane glanced at him and said sarcastically.

Uehara Toru was now thick-skinned: "Soudayo."

"puff--"

"That's terrible, Senior."

Toru Uehara saw that she finally stopped looking stern and started to smile. After the familiar Cha Li Cha Qi Sakura returned, he also felt a little better.

"You really are best the way you are now."

"So, why are you mad at me?"

Now, I can finally ask the reason.

However, Sakura Ayane was unwilling to say it.

"Girls have a lot of things on their mind. Senior, do you really have to dig into the details?"

"...You are such a bother."

"Hmph, it's the same for us. Senior, you're very troublesome. If I were a normal person, you would have talked to me and said sorry to me a long time ago, right?" Sakura Ayane grabbed one side of her hair and began to curl it up with her hand.

When she is content and happy, she will do this action subconsciously.

Uehara Toru: "Are you awake? I didn't do anything. Do I need to apologize?"

"Do you want me to apologize?"

"Stupid senior."

Sakura Ayane's mood seemed to have gone through the changing of the four seasons in an instant. Although she was now in the coolness of autumn, her heart was like the sunshine of midsummer, rekindling her passion and warmth. She easily put her hands on her waist, with a playful look, and looked up at Uehara Toru, with an expectant light in her eyes: "Senior, so when we have dinner later, do you want to treat me?"

Uehara: “Of course not.”

"We'll go Dutch."

"Cut~"
