Social phobia and lonely rock

“Very good lyrics, very good.”

Pochi didn't ask what Ishikawa Hayabusa meant by the above words. She felt relieved after hearing what Ishikawa Hayabusa said.

Then he revealed a dazzling smile.

She was feeling a little dizzy, but then she remembered what Ishikawa Hayabusa had just said about her being a very important person, and suddenly decided to muster up the courage to give it a try.

She has hesitated for so long, now must be the best time.

Falcon won't refuse.

She asked.

"Well, Hayabusa, the date we talked about yesterday..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pochi started crying and apologizing to himself.

Sorry! She still needs to give herself some time to prepare!

Next time, I will definitely tell you when we are on a date!

Ishikawa Hayabusa thought about it, smiled and raised two fingers.

"Two weeks from now."

...

That night, while recalling the excitement he felt when everyone in the store praised him, Bochi stood in front of the printer, watching the papers pouring out one by one.

Everyone in the band is really nice.

She quietly recalled the time she first met Hayabusa and the scene when she agreed to Kita's request for support in the performance, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

It’s really great to meet you all.

Although there are difficult things, there are more happy things that overwhelm the little difficulties.

After Pochi pasted the printed paper in the appropriate place, he lay on the made bed and looked at the ceiling.

If this continues in the future.

Then, take more different photos with everyone.

It would be great if that were possible.

Pochi smiled.

And on the ceiling facing her, the wall was covered with photos of Ishikawa Hayabusa with his head slightly tilted back and a proud expression.

The four walls around the room were also covered with photos of the five members of the band.

In the dim room, countless photos are like hell.

Among them, Pochi laughed like a pervert.

"Hehe...hehehe..."

69. Confluence

The days finally passed as Pochi waited in agony...five days.

This day is Saturday.

There is still a week until the date.

Watching the time slowly advancing on the phone.

Boqi felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't calm down. Her mind was constantly thinking about the upcoming date. In order to calm down, she clicked on a science video.

“Although the universe has a beginning, it has no end—it is infinite.”

Yes, now her heart is as infinite as the universe.

That's strange!

She didn't even have the mood to watch the video. She threw her phone away and saw the cabinet next to her. She turned over and walked over.

Bang, bang, bang.

He banged his head on the table several times.

After she calmed down a little, she stared at the photo of Ishikawa Hayabusa on the ceiling and started to daydream.

Although the mother asked her to tear down all the photos in other places in the room, after seeing the photo on the ceiling, she thought for a moment and said with a weird smile.

"It depends on Yili's choice."

So the only photo left was the ceiling.

What is Falcon doing now?

Pochi's clear eyes stared at the ceiling quietly.

Suddenly, an idea came to her.

How about... going to date Falcon?

She reached out and picked up the phone, clicked on Line, and her eyes lingered on the interface.

for a long time.

"Yili, let's have lunch~"

My mother's voice came from downstairs. Her eyes seemed to have lost all color and she stood up shakily.

Two hours passed by unknowingly!

She thought of it last.

How can a person with social phobia have the courage to ask others out? If he had the courage to ask others out, he would not be a social phobic. It is too scary to invite others when you cannot meet them in person.

After lunch, she carried her guitar and headed to STARRY.

Sitting on the tram, her eyes were fixed on a small corner in front of her.

Although she has changed a lot recently, in fact she still hasn't made any progress.

Part-time work and receiving guests are all things that can only be done with the company of Hongxia and the others. Without them, she would still be the water flea-like Goto Ichiri.

Progress... and the efforts that Hayabusa hoped for her, what would that mean?

At this moment, the sky outside the tram was just like her mood.

The dark clouds covered the sunlight, and the whole world looked bright but not warm.

The cold colors and uneasy environment seem to take away all the warmth from people.

Pochi sat on the side of the train where the light was weaker. This girl with waist-length pink hair and bangs covering her eyes seemed to be a wall separating her from everyone else.

'Ding dong. '

The girl, who was hunched over with her head down, was startled and took out her cell phone from her pocket.

I've been communicating with everyone more frequently via Line recently, and Pochi no longer takes a long time to react when her phone rings like before.

It was a message from Ishikawa Hayabusa.

"Pochi should be on the train by now."

After hesitating, she replied.

"Well, it will take another 40 minutes."

"40 minutes? What a coincidence, I was almost there too. I just thought Pochi was daydreaming on the train again, so I came to chat with you. Were you daydreaming just now?"

Pochi was a little surprised. Falcon was also riding the train.

Feeling as if she had company, she typed quickly on her phone.

"Why would Falcon know that?"

And Ishikawa Hayabusa replied with a voice message. Pochi looked around and saw that the train was very quiet and there were not many people on it.

She adjusted the volume, picked up the phone, clicked play, and put it close to her ear.

From inside came Ishikawa Hayabusa's exaggerated and laughing voice.

“Everything in the world is in my sight!”

Pochi was stunned for a moment and then smiled. A lovely smile appeared on her face. She put the phone on her lap. While she was thinking about how to reply, Ishikawa Hayabusa sent another message.

"Come to think of it, the rest of the band probably don't know that Pochi is the guitar hero, should we tell them?"

"Well, let's not do that. The strength I can exert now is still..."

"Yeah, then I'll be the only one in the band who knows Pochi's true identity. If Pochi doesn't want to be exposed by me, please bribe me."

...

After getting off the tram, I reached the exit.

After the crowd in front dispersed, Pochi saw a young man standing by the wall, his hands in his pockets, looking up at the sky.

Under the gloomy sky that seemed without a trace of warmth, there was no trace of depression in his figure. Instead, he seemed to be looking forward to something.

Soon, he noticed the gaze turned back, and when he saw Pochi, he smiled and raised his hand to greet him.

"Let's go, Pochi."

...

Inside STARRY, five people sat around the table and chatted.

They had originally planned to start practicing as soon as they gathered, but a certain scumbag seemed to be planning something, and just as they were about to enter the rehearsal room, she suddenly said.

"Hongxia's birthday is in two days."

Hong Xia, who was walking happily towards the rehearsal room, was suddenly startled and turned around and screamed.

"Wait..what did you suddenly say?"

"It's Ijichi-senpai's birthday. I'll prepare well."

Kita didn't hesitate at all and followed the topic with a smile.

Her smile made Hongxia reluctantly let go of Liang's hand.

She sighed.

"I didn't want to say it so early..."

"Why?" Ishikawa Hayabusa asked in confusion, "If we don't know until the day, no one will be able to buy gifts."

Liang became excited when she heard about the gifts and revealed her true purpose. She seriously instructed three boys and girls who were one year younger than her.

"Please buy food as a gift, or bass and luxury items that are easy to sell."

"Ryo, shut up!"

After Hongxia yelled at Liang, she noticed something and looked to the side worriedly.

The other three also followed the gaze of the girl who was about to celebrate her birthday, and saw that Pochi, who was at the end, had turned into a sticky ball.

The four of them were already accustomed to this scene.

The three girls looked at Ishikawa Hayabusa, and Ishikawa Hayabusa walked over without hesitation.

He walked behind Pochi, clasped his hands together, stretched them out forcefully, and shouted.

"Ah!"

Instantly, Pochi returned to normal, but still looked dazed.

After a moment, she suddenly came to her senses and apologized desperately.

"Sorry, I've never attended a friend's birthday party before."

Hearing these touching words, Hongxia and Kita's faces changed slightly, as if they were about to cry for her.

"You must come to the birthday party in two days."

Liang invited her very naturally, as if she was the one having the birthday, and reminded her again at the same time.

“You must bring a gift.”
