Guitar Hero also wants to play Kasuga Shadow!

“No, no…”

Lenai was still shaking her head when her cell phone rang, interrupting her.

He took out his cell phone, looked at the sender, then looked up at Pochi, pressed the answer button, and handed it to Pochi.

"Eh? Eh?!"

Let me take it again?

"Where are you?"

There was already a voice coming from the phone, and I didn't care about anything else and took the phone, "Hello... Hello..."

"You are……"

Grandma Lenai thought about it and found the voice quite familiar. "Pochi, right? Lenai is at your house now?"

"Eh? No...no, at another friend's house."

"Another friend..."

There weren't many people Le Nai could call her friends. Her personality was quite unpredictable. So... was this a new friend? "Tell her to go home and eat."

"oh oh."

Eat... I looked at the time and it was already time for dinner. I turned to look at Le Nai who was standing beside me, "Le... Le Nai, grandma is calling you to come home for dinner."

"Not hungry yet."

Lenai pouted and turned her head to the side, as if she was still upset about the cucumber incident.

"Uh……"

Pursing her lips, she raised her phone again, "Lena said she's not hungry."

"Even if you're not hungry, come back to me. Tell her her dad is home today, so we have to eat together."

Lenai's dad? Coming back today? So... Lenai's dad is often not at home? "Um, Lenai, your dad is back, so..."

"Humph."

He snorted a little in dissatisfaction, but still stood up, "I know..."

Is Le Nai… not on good terms with her father? After a moment's hesitation, she didn't ask. Le Nai's grandmother seemed to have heard Le Nai's words on the other end of the phone. "That's it, let her come back quickly."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

"Give."

I returned the phone to Lenai. She seemed a little irritated. She grabbed the phone and walked towards the basement stairs. When she reached the stairs, she turned around and looked at Pochi: "I... I'm leaving first."

"Then... then I'll go back first..."

Before he could finish, he felt a force coming from the corner of his clothes.

"What...what happened?"

I turned around and found Mu lowering his head and pulling at the corner of his clothes.

"I don't want to...let Pochi go..."

What's wrong with me?

It was already this late, and Pochi's family should be almost ready for dinner. It was time for her to go home.

but……

I just don't want to be alone at home...

I've never been so selfish before, bothering others for my own desires. I've never done such a thing before...

Why now...

"You don't want me to leave..."

He turned his head but didn't turn around, letting her pull at the edge of his clothes. He looked at Mu's expression. Although it was still expressionless as usual, he felt something that he could empathize with the most.

--Lonely.

"Mu...are you lonely at home alone?"

This time, I didn't look at Mu's expression, because my gaze would put her under pressure. I knew this very well...

……

Are you lonely?

No one talks to me at home. My parents are very busy and often not at home, and the maid only has the most basic communication with me.

When I am alone, I will play the guitar here, or just lie on my bed and stare blankly at my doll.

I don't like TV shows either, because they are all fake smiles, just like... my parents...

I have nightmares when I sleep, and I dream about a lot of weird things, but I can't remember anything when I wake up.

and so……

Is this feeling called loneliness?

……

He didn't hear any movement behind him, but he felt her pulling the corner of his clothes a little harder. Pochi already had the answer in his mind.

He reached out and held Mu's hand before turning to face her, "Then... I'll stay with Mu for a while longer."

"Um……"

Why does my face feel hot...

"But, you have to get Lenai out first."

"Um……"

I lowered my head even lower, feeling like something was wrong with me...

……

"What were you doing?"

Lenai just walked out of the basement and waited for a while before Pochi and Mu appeared.

"No... nothing."

"Stare~"

I stared at Pochi and didn't find anything unusual. But why was Mu, who was half a body behind Pochi, blushing?

and also……

"Why are you holding hands again?"

"Uh...this..."

Pochi scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing how to explain.

"Then I want it too!"

"Okay... okay."

He extended his other hand for Lenai to hold, and the three of them walked out the door together.

"I want to live."

As they were almost at the gate, Lenai suddenly whispered, "I want to play guitar with Pochi."

"Yes...it's been a while since I played guitar seriously."

The band didn't practice this week, and I usually just play guitar at home by myself, and I'm not in the mood to record a video and upload it to the Guitar Hero channel.

But I promised to go to the planetarium with Deng tomorrow. "How about the day after tomorrow?"

"okay!"

With three people together, it was impossible for only two of them to have a conversation. Pochi turned and looked at Mu, "Mu, do you want to come with us?"

Hearing Pochi asking him, Mu looked up at Pochi in surprise, then turned to look at Lenai on the other side.

"Humph!"

He just snorted a little in dissatisfaction, and then took it as his agreement.

"Then...I'll go too."

……

"Be safe on your way home."

Walking out of the apartment door, Pochi imitated the tone of his own parents and gave instructions.

"understood."

Le Nai said as he let go of her hand and walked forward. After walking for a while, he realized something was wrong and turned back, "Pochi... aren't you leaving?"

"I...I'll wait a moment."

Pochi scratched his head a little embarrassedly. It was indeed a bit embarrassing to let Lenai go home alone, but he was really worried about Mu's condition, so he could only let Lenai down a little...

"Um?!"

Am I supposed to walk home alone?! I was thinking I'd be able to spend some time alone with Pochi on the way to the station, but...

He turned around and glared at Mu, who was still holding Pochi's hand. It turns out... you had already planned this!

"Guitar Thief!"

Chapter 134 This...is not necessary.

"Still playing guitar?"

The two of them sat back on the sofa in the basement. The cucumber that Pochi had just taken a bite of was still in the fruit bowl.

"No...I can't."

Pochi scratched his head. He was still not used to the seven-string guitar, and the specific difference was not as big as he had imagined. It just took more time to adapt.

"Ok."

Mu lowered his head. Usually, not many people would come to his house to play, and he had no idea how to entertain friends.

As he lowered his head, he saw the cucumber in the fruit bowl next to him. "Well, cucumber, do you still want to eat it?"

"Eh? Ok...ok."

After all, I have already taken a bite, so I should finish it.

"That……"

Mu picked up the cucumber again, stood up, and held it in front of Pochi, wanting to feed her like before.

"This...this is not necessary."

I am always being fed by others, and I am still very shy. "I... I can do it myself."

"Ok."

He let Pochi take the cucumber from his hand, then lowered his head and sat on the sofa beside him.

"Um……"

He lowered his head and ate the cucumber in small bites. He felt a little embarrassed and began to think about the topic. "Well... well, Mu likes to grow things? He even grows cucumbers by hand."

"Actually, I just like growing cucumbers."

"Only like growing cucumbers?"

“Well, because cucumber flowers are pretty.”

“Cucumber flower?”

I felt like I had seen it somewhere before. After thinking carefully, I realized it was Mu's social profile picture. Since we hadn't chatted much since adding it, I didn't remember it very clearly. "Oh, it's Mu's profile picture."

"Well, that's the first flower that bloomed."

Mu said as he took out his phone, opened an album on it, and held it up in front of Pochi, "These are pictures of cucumbers, Pochi, do you want to see them?"
