I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

He couldn't help but wonder in his heart why he hadn't met his senior, Saori Hayami, earlier. The tacit understanding between them was comparable to that of Matsuoka.

The two people's thoughts and actions are surprisingly consistent, and even many embarrassing experiences are surprisingly similar.

Although it is a bit of an exaggeration to call them "the other me in the world", they are definitely good friends who are like bosom friends.

Nana Toyama, who was sitting opposite them, listened to their conversation and always felt a little out of place. Her cheeks puffed up slightly as she ate a small cake and drank water.

She calculated in her mind that she would eat three more pieces of cake today and eat less rice at noon so that she would not take in too many calories. If that didn't work, she would go out for a run in the middle of the night.

Saori Hayami noticed Nana Toyama's cute expression and realized that she had been so busy chatting with Toru Uehara that she seemed to have neglected her.

"Mr. Toyama, what are your hobbies?" Hayami Saori asked gently.

"Me? Me?" Nana Touyama still had a small piece of cake in her mouth. Realizing that this was not polite, she quickly drank a sip of water and quickly replied, "As for me... I like singing, dancing, and tasting delicious food, that's about it."

When Nana Toyama mentioned that she loved to eat, she felt a hint of teasing from Toru Uehara.

"Mr. Uehara, why are you looking at me like that?" Nana Toyama was a little confused.

Uehara Toru smiled slightly: "Nothing, I just think that eating like this may not be good for your health."

At this time, there were four empty plates piled in front of Nana Toyama, and the cakes had been eaten clean.

Toru Uehara recalled that the last time he met her, she was also eating a lot.

Can this really help you lose weight? Uehara Toru was a little skeptical.

However, apart from her cheeks which look a little chubby, Nana Toyama's figure is just right and her waistline is also very prominent.

Nana Toyama was also surprised to find that she had eaten four cakes, and her eyes widened.

I clearly only ordered one portion just now, how did it turn out like this...

Hayami Saori and Uehara Toru couldn't help but chuckle at her reaction.

"No wonder Toyama-san can become an idol. I have uncoordinated bodies and my singing is not that good, so this path is not feasible for me." Hayami Saori said with a hint of emotion, but she was actually praising Toyama Nana.

Her words are as comfortable as a spring breeze. In this respect, Miss Yukinoshita could perhaps learn from her.

Nana Toyama chuckled and said, "No, becoming an idol... is all about luck."

It was because the role of Kanon Nakagawa paved the way for her, otherwise Nana Toyama would have found it difficult to be sure that she would develop in this direction.

Afterwards, Hayami Saori talked with Toyama Nana about many past events in the voice actor industry. About half an hour later, she looked at the time and said to Uehara Toru and Toyama Nana, "Sorry, I have work to do later. Let's stop here today."

Toru Uehara nodded immediately and made way for her.

When they sat down just now, Toru Uehara and Saori Hayami sat together. This was the first time that he did not deliberately keep a distance from women.

Even when facing a woman like Reina Ueda who had a strong sense of propriety, he consciously kept his distance at the beginning.

Is this a reflection of my mentality gradually returning to normal?

Toru Uehara thought silently, and indeed, the subtle resistance he had towards women before was slowly decreasing.

Saori Hayami is about 165cm tall, a head taller than Nana Toyama, but even so, she still has to slightly raise her head when looking at Toru Uehara.

"Mr. Uehara, if you have the chance, you are welcome to come to my house. We can exchange cooking skills. I really want to improve in this area." Hayami Saori said with a smile.

Uehara Toru smiled back, "Of course, see you soon, Senior."

"Okay, then I'll go first. Goodbye, Toyama-san." Hayami Saori waved goodbye to the two of them, then walked out of the cafe gracefully, not forgetting to pay her bill.

Uehara Toru sat down again and turned his gaze to Toyama Nana. She seemed to have finally relaxed and was no longer so nervous.

He looked at the untouched cake in front of him, and noticed her casual glance at him, so he smiled and pushed the cake towards her.

"If you still want to eat, go ahead."

"Eh? I..." Nana Toyama was a little surprised.

"The cakes here are delivered by a specialized dessert shop. Although they taste good, they are still a little lacking for me," explained Toru Uehara.

"Are you really giving it to me?" Nana Toyama blinked, somewhat unbelieving.

At this moment, Uehara Toru gently raised the cup of red tea in his hand, touched the edge of the cup with his lips, and took a sip. This action was so natural, yet revealed an indescribable nobility and elegance, just like the respected prince in the fairy tale.

His temperament complements his handsome appearance, exuding an irresistible charm that is enough to make the opposite sex around him fall in love with him.

As she ate the cake he gave up, Toyama Nana recalled the warm scene of him carrying her to the bench that day. Although her vision was blurry at the time, the figure was still clear.

She couldn't help but wonder, if he was a prince, then would she, who was being held in his arms, be a princess or Cinderella?

Thinking of this, Toyama Nana said, "Uehara-san, thank you so much for what you did last time..."

At this time, Toru Uehara was staring at his teacup, wondering if he should buy himself a set of exquisite tea sets. He has recently dubbed several animations, and although his income is not very high, it is enough to buy some new items for his home.

More importantly, this is the compensation for working as a voice actor, and the sense of accomplishment is completely different from other jobs.

"Huh? What are you thanking me for?" Toru Uehara asked with some confusion.

Nana Toyama: "It was last time when I had a hypoglycemia attack and you helped me."

Uehara Tetsu: "I've already thanked you for that, why are you still remembering it?"

When this was mentioned, Toru Uehara couldn't help but look at the cheesecake in front of her, chuckled and asked, "Are you still losing weight now?"

Nana Touyama perked up: "Well, then of course I'm losing weight..."

Uehara Tetsu: "I'll give you some lukewarm knowledge. The five pieces of cake you just ate should have a total calorie count of more than 1,500 calories. And considering your height, your basal metabolic rate is probably only about 1,200 calories a day."

"So, you are now exceeding your calorie intake for the entire day."

Nana Touyama blinked: "Huh?"

"So, if you have to eat dinner at night, then it may be more than 2,000 calories. If you want to avoid gaining weight, well..."

"You need to run at least ten kilometers to burn off the excess calories."

Nana Touyama had no idea about these things, until she heard these words, she was completely stunned. She just held the spoon in her mouth, and her movements and expressions looked very funny.

Seeing her so shocked, Uehara Toru couldn't help but ask, "Have you never known about this before?"

Nana Touyama put down the spoon and said with a frustrated look: "No, I always thought I could lose weight by eating less and exercising more."

"That is indeed the truth, but apparently you executed it wrong last time."

"Well, then this half piece of cake... Uehara-san, can you help me with it?" Toyama Nana handed the plate back and asked sincerely, "No matter what, at least we can't waste food."

Uehara Toru looked at the half-eaten cake with some disgust, but he changed his mind and said, "Actually, there is another saying. Have you heard it?"

Nana Touyama said seriously: "Please enlighten me."

Uehara Tetsu: "Today's fat can be saved for tomorrow. How can you lose weight if you don't eat enough?"

Nana Touyama muttered, "That makes sense. Then I shouldn't waste food."

Uehara Toru: "That's right, so you eat it."

"Hmm!~" Looking at Nana Toyama's happy appearance, Toru Uehara couldn't hold it back at all. He turned his head away, covered his mouth and laughed out loud.

Although Sakura Ayane and Mizuno Inori couldn't hear the content of their conversation, they could probably guess something from the looks of them.

Sakura Ayane looked at Uehara Toru with a subtle look in her eyes and said sarcastically, "This guy is definitely teasing Toyama-senpai... I didn't expect that he has such a bad taste..."

Mizuno Qi did not reply, there was only a hint of envy in her eyes.

If only I hadn't been so willful at that time.

Now he has lost his value, and I feel like there is nothing I can say to him if I get close to him...

Mizuno Inori's self-awareness is relatively clear.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to understand Mizuno Qi's mood. They slowly gathered and blocked the sunlight. Then, bean-sized raindrops began to fall rapidly, and soon turned into a downpour, as if to wash away the haze in people's hearts. The rain was extremely heavy.

Mizuno Qi listened to the sound of rain outside the window and looked at the rain curtain. For some reason, she felt a sense of tranquility in her heart.

Nana Toyama finally finished eating the cake. She looked at the heavy rain outside in surprise and took out her cell phone to check the weather forecast.

"Why is it raining suddenly?! This is different from what the weather forecast said!" she exclaimed.

Uehara Toru asked, "What's wrong?"

Nana Touyama looked helpless: "I hung out the clothes I washed last night today..."

Uehara Toru reminded: "Why don't you go back quickly?"

"Yeah, I'll go back right away. Fortunately, this place is not far from the station." Toyama Nana hurriedly stood up and began to search for an umbrella in her bag. After finding it, she nodded hurriedly to Uehara Toru, took out the money she had prepared, and prepared to go to the front desk to pay.

"Well, then Uehara-san, I'll be leaving first," she said quickly.

Toru Uehara watched her hurried movements and found that she was still meticulous and thoughtful even when she was busy, which made him like her even more.

"Well, bye," he responded.

Nana Toyama took an umbrella and quickly walked to the front desk to pay the bill, then walked out of the cafe quickly and stepped into the rain.

Toru Uehara watched the rain getting heavier, but he was not in a hurry. He planned to continue sitting in the cafe, drinking tea and reading the script.

Now that he has confirmed that the role is his, he will do his best to play the role of Hikigaya Hachiman well, even if he cannot fully understand or resonate with it.

According to Mr. Wataru's guidance, he needs to grasp Hikigaya's unique inferiority complex.

Sakura Ayane and Mizuno Inori were still chatting, but they would occasionally turn their heads to look at Uehara Toru.

They all brought umbrellas, but I don’t know if Toru Uehara brought one.

They were wondering, should they go over and say hello to him, and then they could sit together naturally?

If the person sitting opposite her wasn't Mizuno Inori, Sakura Ayane would have definitely already taken action.

But Qi is also an important friend, so...

Similarly, if it weren't for Sakura Ayane, Mizuno Inori would probably have taken action.

The good sisters accidentally restrained each other.

In the sound of rain, time seemed to become blurred, only the clock on the wall kept turning, reminding people of the passage of time. An hour passed, and the rain was still heavy, with no sign of stopping.

But accompanied by the sound of rain, people's mood becomes unusually calm, as if the rain has a magical power that can soothe the irritability and anxiety in people's hearts.

Toru Uehara glanced at the time. As soon as he turned his head to look at the window, Mizuno Inori and Sakura Ayane turned their heads away unconsciously.

They all felt a little guilty, probably because they had been peeking just now.

They all have umbrellas. If they want to say hello to Toru Uehara, who will lend him the umbrella, and then who will share an umbrella?

It was originally a simple question, but they made it extremely complicated.

Because in their subconscious fantasy, the option of sharing an umbrella with Toru Uehara is obviously more attractive than simply lending the umbrella to him.

However, Toru Uehara didn't know what they were thinking. He continued to focus on the script and planned to wait patiently.

Just then, the wind chimes at the store door rang again, and a petite figure wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella walked in.

It was Nana Toyama. An hour later, she came back.

Nana Toyama looked at Uehara Toru who had his back to her and called out softly, “Uehara-san! Uehara-san!”

Toru Uehara seemed to hear a kitten calling him. He turned around and saw the cute Nana Toyama waving at him.

Toru Uehara stood up, picked up the script, and walked towards the direction of Nana Toyama.

"Why are you back again? Did you leave something here?"

Nana Toyama shook her head repeatedly. She was wearing a disposable transparent raincoat sold in convenience stores. Her little face was already a little wet with rain. She was also holding an umbrella and a waterproof document bag in her hands.

"Nothing was left behind, but I noticed that the rain hasn't stopped. I thought that you didn't bring an umbrella with you, Uehara-san."

"I'll be back by train soon after I finish putting away the clothes at home. Uehara-san, here's the umbrella for you. Also, this file bag. If you put the script in it, it will definitely not get wet."

Toru Uehara's gaze fell on Nana Toyama's face. Her cheeks were lightly wet by the rain, and tiny raindrops hung on her long eyelashes, as if dotted with crystal pearls.

Despite this, her skin still exudes a natural rosy whiteness, and without any makeup, it already looks soft and flawless. It is a kind of fresh and refined beauty, and even under the baptism of rain, it still exudes a moving luster.

Toru Uehara: "..."

"Last time, Uehara-san, you helped me a lot. I have always felt sorry for giving you a piece of bread. Of course, I am not saying that this can be written off now. Uehara-san, if you have any trouble in the future, you can still call me."

"The umbrella and the briefcase are all yours."

Toru Uehara smiled, took the umbrella, and put the script into the file bag as she said.

"Is it true that we won't get wet?"

"No, I won't! I swear on my honor!"

"I'm just kidding."
