Lonely Rock for the Blind

"!"

The red eyes suddenly widened, and she quickly left the hug and ran to the front of several people, then opened her arms like a hen protecting her chicks.

"...Cat...Cat...Aunt Nekoyashiki!"

"... "

The cat named Saki Yashiki, who was holding an umbrella, narrowed her eyes.

The others also looked at Nekoyashiki Saki.

"…Ugh…"

Nekoyashiki Saki sighed deeply.

"Auntie...I...we will treat the kitten well...you don't need to worry..."

Yidizhi Hongxia's body was stiff and she spoke incoherently.

"No need to explain so much... I've heard enough explanations today."

Nekoyashiki Saki shook her head.

"So, that's the answer."

Nekoyashiki Haru said this with his back still turned towards Nekoyashiki Saki.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Saki closed her eyes.

Then open it.

"It's come to this...if I continue to be the bad guy, it will be too embarrassing."

Nekoyashiki Saki walked towards the airport holding an umbrella.

"I will still keep an eye out for opportunities to help you regain your sight... Of course, I won't force you if you don't want to..."

"…Um."

Cat House Saki walked away.

Step by step.

Then suddenly stopped.

"…clear!"

She suddenly shouted loudly.

"I'm here."

Nekoyashiki Haru answered.

"I will...work hard to learn how to be a mother, so you should also learn how to be a son."

"... "

"When we meet again...when you ask me who you are, I will tell you everything."

"Ok!"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Saki lowered her head and sighed.

Then disappeared in the rain.

“…”×4

The others looked at Nekayashiki Haru in silence.

"Why don't you speak?"

Nekoyashiki Haru asked.

"Um... didn't Kitty have a fight with Auntie?"

Ijichi Hongxia asked.

"What's the fuss?"

Nekayashiki Haru asked back.

"...Senior...where are your sunglasses?"

Kita Ikuyo asked, staring blankly at Nekayashiki Haru's purple pupils.

"Are the eyes scary?"

"No...no! It looks great!"

Kita Ikuyo answered loudly.

"That's fine. You won't need sunglasses anymore. I guess none of you find this kind of eyes scary, right?"

"No!"×4

"Ah."

Yamada Ryo looked at Nekoyashiki Haru.

"I'll apologize to you then."

"You have so many things to apologize to me for, and it suddenly occurred to me that if I just leave like this, the money you owe me will be completely forgotten."

"Uh…"

Yamada Ryo's body stiffened.

Ijichi Hongxia looked at the few people and smiled, her red eyes slightly curved.

"Everyone, go back now."

Suddenly, Goto Ichiri, who was holding the cat Yashiki Haru, raised his head.

"Qing...that..."

Goto Ichiri raised his head.

"Is there... anything else you haven't said?"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked, then nodded vigorously.

"Yes."

Kita Ikuyo and Ijichi Kouka both stiffened at the same time.

Nekoyashiki Haru faced the two of them.

"You like me...right?"

"Ah... um."

Kita Ikuyo blushed and nodded to the left.

Ijichi Hongxia also nodded to the red face on the other side.

"Well, I really don't have any romantic feelings for you guys."

Nekoyashiki Haru raised his head and pointed his nose to the sky.

"Eh?!"

Ijichi Hongxia opened her eyes wide

"Are you going to refuse?! I'm booking a flight to England right now!"

Kita Ikuyo took out her cell phone.

Nekayashiki Haru lowered his head and faced the two of them again.

"I am... probably a mature womanizer who likes older women."

"?!"

Goto Ichiri's eyes widened.

"So...this also plays a big role in your lack of feelings."

Nekoyashiki Haru scratched his cheek.

"I won't force myself to like you just for the sake of liking you, because I think that would ultimately be deceiving your feelings."

"So...if you really like me, please try to make me like you."

Nekoyashiki Haru said seriously.

“…”×4

The four of them fell silent at the same time.

“…Does this… count as a downfall?”

Ijichi Nikka asked Kita Ikuyo.

"I…I don't know."

Kita Ikuyo shook her head and said.

"... Honestly, I'm also very embarrassed. This answer is the best I can think of..."

Nekoyashiki Haru said in a weak voice.

"Pfft..."

Yamada Ryo laughed.

"Well, that... well..."

Goto Ichiri was at a loss.

"I agreed."

Ijichi Hongxia nodded.

"It's just putting what I've been doing on the table. There's no difference."

Kita Ikuyo also laughed.

"Then let's go back next... Speaking of which... haven't we been getting wet in the rain the whole time?"

Ijichi Hongxia suddenly remembered her umbrella and opened it quickly.

Snapped!

"It's so small! There's no way it's going to be enough for the five of us!"

Kita Ikuyo said in surprise.

"There's nothing we can do! This is the only one, everyone squeeze in!"

Five people gathered under an umbrella.

“It’s so crowded.”

Yamada Ryo commented.

“It’s really… crowded…”

Ijichi Hongxia, who was squeezed in the middle, sighed.

"Be patient, everyone."

Kita Ikuyo laughed.

"Come to think of it, I should have asked my mom to send an umbrella."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed.

“…everyone’s…smell…”

Because they were wet from the rain, the smell of several people mixed with the rain made Goto Ichiri open his eyes wide.

"Forget it! Let's just go! Let's go!"
