Social phobia and lonely rock

The smile on Kita's face faded a little, but he still held Ishikawa Hayabusa's arm tightly.

"Ah."

She answered softly.

The two of them walked together on the streets of Shinjuku. Kita didn't ask where they were going, but just followed Ishikawa Hayabusa's footsteps.

They walked like an ordinary couple and chatted casually.

"I feel that Yudai's singing level has improved a lot today. She must have practiced according to the textbook."

"Of course, it's the book Hayabusa-kun gave me."

"But even so, Yudai is really talented and is definitely a good singer."

Kita was quite happy to be praised for his talent by Ishikawa Hayabusa.

But she thought about it and said it very vindictively.

"Really? It turns out that the perverted genius Ishikawa Hayabusa would actually praise me for being smart. I thought that in Ishikawa-kun's impression, I was just a fool."

Ishikawa Hayabusa stopped and looked around with a serious expression.

"Who! Who dares to call my girlfriend an idiot? I will make him know how heavy this fist is!"

Kita looked at Ishikawa Hayabusa's silly look, chuckled, and pulled his arm.

"Let's go~"

140.Ice cream

The two held each other's hands and left from the intersection where people met.

Two people wearing the same band T-shirts can be said to be the kind of couple that single people hate the most. It is not enough for them to just lean against each other intimately, they also have to hold hands. Not satisfied with just holding hands, they also wear the same T-shirt. The same T-shirt even looks good when worn, and they are a perfect match.

She is simply a living blind machine. Her sweetness and brilliance overshadow all the couples around her.

But this was extremely dull for the two of them.

Kita leaned against Ishikawa Hayabusa and chatted with him while observing Shinjuku at night, a place she rarely visited.

They turned into a not very large commercial street, surrounded by some clothing stores, restaurants, entertainment venues, etc. that were still open. It was bustling with people coming and going.

Bright and dazzling lights shone through the shops on both sides, and even the trees and ornaments on both sides of the road were decorated with twinkling colorful lights.

But the bright lights reflecting the faint colored lights feel extremely mature and restrained.

Those who came here at this time were all extremely mature middle-aged couples or lovers. There were not many young couples like Ishikawa Hayabusa and Kita.

Even the clothes displayed in the surrounding windows are of mature and stable styles.

After looking for a while, Kita felt a little uncomfortable with the environment here, and she was a little hesitant.

Ishikawa Hayabusa suddenly said in distress.

"Oops, it seems I went to the wrong place. I should have made a plan just now."

Kita was stunned and turned his gaze from the surroundings to Ishikawa Hayabusa, seeing how he looked a little embarrassed but calm.

She smiled and hugged his arms tighter.

"Didn't I tell you before that it was just a casual walk? Don't take it seriously."

Seeing her like this, Ishikawa Hayabusa looked around and asked thoughtfully.

"Really? Yudai rarely comes here?"

"Hmm? Yeah..."

Kita heard Ishikawa Hayabusa's strange words and responded in confusion.

Hearing her say this, Ishikawa Hayabusa slowly stretched out his arm and pointed at a cold drink shop on the commercial street.

"Over there, the ice cream in that cold drink shop seems to be quite famous?"

He said uncertainly.

Kita turned around quickly in confusion.

When she saw the bustling cold drink shop, images of various advertisements quickly flashed through her mind, and she soon matched the store's appearance with a store in her memory.

Instantly, a light flashed in her eyes.

"Yes, that store is SINCERITY where the hero and heroine went on their first date in "Permitted Life". Hayabusa, hurry up."

Unlike his slightly uncomfortable look just now, at this moment Kita's whole body was glowing with colorful light, his eyes were sparkling with stars, and he even started to pull Ishikawa Hayabusa away.

Of course, Ishikawa Hayabusa naturally followed her footsteps and walked over quickly.

At this moment, this originally solemn and heavy yet somewhat intoxicating street was illuminated by a girl with a smile as bright as the sun.

The young man next to her followed her with an embarrassed smile.

Not long after entering the store, the two came out, but unlike when they went in, they each held two different gorgeous ice creams in their hands.

The not-so-big snow-white ice cream was decorated with small ornaments made of various candies and chocolates.

Ishikawa Hayabusa took a bite and found it quite good. At least it wasn’t some weird thing that was more of a gimmick than something edible.

But he noticed that Kita next to him didn't start eating, but kept staring at him.

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked over in confusion, only to see Kita notice his gaze and hand over his phone with a smile.

In the lighting range of the cold drink shop, her cheek and the side of her arm holding the ice cream were illuminated by the light, and her extremely joyful smile made those who were watching her feel a little happy.

"Ok?"

"please."

Kita said sweetly that the solo photos taken of her by Ishikawa Hayabusa at the amusement park turned out very well, and the feedback she received made her extremely happy.

She felt very sorry that she couldn't send out the better photos.

Faced with his girlfriend's request and seeing such a happy expression, Ishikawa Hayabusa naturally would not refuse.

He took the phone and thought of the messy photos of Kita at the beach, so he decided to show off.

"Since you specifically asked me to take the photo, Kita must follow my instructions."

Kita was puzzled for a moment, looked at the street again, and thought that Ishikawa Hayabusa would never mess around on the street, so he agreed to him.

"Oh... yes you can."

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked around, found the lighting position, stood on the side of the road, set his mobile phone camera to professional mode, set the focus, pointed to the place in front of him and spoke to the stunned Kita.

"Then walk over here, put the ice cream next to your mouth, but look to the side casually."

Seeing that his requests were all normal, Kita naturally cooperated very well. She walked to the position chosen by Ishikawa Hayabusa and stopped.

"so?"

She is indeed an Instagram expert. Although her photography skills are average, she has good qualities as a model and she easily posed the pose that Ishikawa Hayabusa wanted.

"Yes, move your upper body slightly forward, OK."

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked at his phone, carefully adjusted the angle, and when he saw that the effect was perfect, he pressed the photo button without any hesitation.

Click.

When Kita heard the sound of a cell phone taking a photo, he came over quickly.

She looked at Ishikawa Hayabusa's amazing expression, slightly raising her expectations, took the phone with a smile, and opened the photo album.

The background of the photo is between a brightly lit soda shop and a clothing store with all the lights turned off.

Under this extremely contrasting light, the outline of her body was illuminated, yet half-shifted into darkness.

She looked like she had just come out of a cold drink shop, carrying a guitar bag and holding an ice cream, walking from the light to the darkness, as if she was going home.

But as she was just starting to eat her ice cream and was walking home, she noticed the camera here, the pure white and sweet ice cream against her pink lips, her clean green-yellow eyes were filled with some doubts.

This hint of doubt shapes the purity of the girl, the instrument on her back gives her a sense of maturity, and the seemingly inadvertent candid effect adds a bit of reality to the photo.

Kita stared for a long time, she even felt moved when she looked at herself in the photo.

After a long time, she looked at the creator of the photo.

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked at Kita who raised his head with a look of surprise in his eyes, and the smugness on his face became even more pronounced.

But Kita looked down at the photo for a while, then suddenly hugged the phone tightly and shouted in embarrassment.

"No! You can't post photos like this on Instagram. What if Ichichi-senpai and the others see photos like this and think I have a boyfriend?"

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked silly, he didn't understand what she was thinking.

"I'd better take my own photos!" She handed the phone to Ishikawa Hayabusa with a struggling look on her face.

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked at the phone, took it with a sad face, and took a rather ordinary and cute photo for her.

Then, the two of them hurriedly ate the ice cream that was beginning to melt.

After eating the ice cream, Kita looked at Ishikawa Hayabusa, who still looked a little lost, and said with some apology.

"Don't worry, Hayabusa-kun. I will cherish it."

"Um...By the way, send me a copy of the photo as well."

Hearing him say this, Kita actually showed some reluctance, and she cried out softly.

"Eh..."

"Eh what?!"

"Suddenly I have such a beautiful photo of myself, and I don't want to show it to others."

“I took the photo!”

"Even if it was taken by Hayabusa..."

Ishikawa Hayabusa was slightly dissatisfied. He looked ahead and spoke in a tantrum.

"Forget it. After all, the photo only captured the expression of Yu Dai in my eyes at that moment. Anyway, I can see it if I want to."

Kita suddenly paused, but took two quick steps to catch up. She looked at the boy next to her who knew so much.

She suddenly realized that his originally sharp temperament became much softer after growing his hair long.

But his gaze was still as sharp and deep as ever.

Although she already knew that he was handsome, after observing him carefully at this moment, she inexplicably felt that he was even more handsome.

She controlled her emotions and changed the subject.

"Come to think of it, Hayabusa, you said before that this wasn't planned... Wasn't that a lie?"

"No, I really didn't have a plan, but when I chose the direction, I just followed the route that might be more suitable."

As Ishikawa Hayabusa said this, he turned his head to look at Kita, but Kita quickly reached out his hand, pressed his cheek, and forced his face back.

"Yu Dai~~"

He cried and shouted for no apparent reason.

But Kita, who often followed Ishikawa Hayabusa's lead, did not agree to him this time, but called out a little shyly.

"Don't look at me now!"

After knowing how he looked in Ishikawa Hayabusa's eyes and reconfirming the image of Ishikawa Hayabusa in his own eyes, Kita was so embarrassed for some reason that he didn't dare to face his gaze.

...

Led by Ishikawa Hayabusa, the two men came out from the side of the commercial street and walked towards the station vaguely from another direction.

Kita seemed to be unaware and followed his footsteps easily.

Different from the busy main road, this small road gives people the feeling that suddenly there is no one to be seen.

There was only the dim light from the street lamps and the surrounding houses.

Ishikawa Hayabusa checked his phone and confirmed the time of the last bus before asking.

"By the way, what do you think of the band recently, Yudai?"

If it weren't for the wavering mood that had just been left over, Kita would definitely have asked him if he wanted to live together with Pochi.
