Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

Miyazawa Maki's shoulders were shaking even more violently, making it impossible to tell whether she was angry or aggrieved.

Because she is working very hard now.

“I just won’t reply”

These words were uttered with difficulty from Miyazawa Maki's mouth, and then the atmosphere in the living room suddenly froze.

Sawayama Haruno, who was standing by, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

After he came in, it was the first time he felt that the air conditioning temperature in the Miyazawa family's house was a little too low.

It was so cold that it felt like someone was blowing air on my back, a chilling feeling.

Fortunately, this atmosphere that was so cold that it seemed like it could kill people did not last long.

"Yeah."

Miyazawa's mother still had a cold face and said in a harsh tone: "In that case, go up and pack your things quickly."

Hearing this, Zeshan Haruno was suddenly shocked.

"Wait, Auntie"

He opened his mouth, trying to say something to stop the other party, but all he saw was the ashen face of Miyazawa's mother.

Miyazawa Mana was the first to react. She immediately spoke to comfort him, "Haruno, it's okay."

"No, this isn't because of whether it's related or not, right?"

Sawayama Haruno turned around in surprise.

He didn't say anything simply because he didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the Miyazawa family as an outsider, but that didn't mean he could sit idly by and watch Maki's mother kick her out of the house again.

This is obviously different from what was agreed before, and Mana had told him that her mother missed Maki too.

It is because of this that I feel there is a chance to repair the relationship between mother and daughter, so I brought Maki here.

But the current situation is not a situation that will cause Maki to be hurt for the second time?

"Haruno!"

Seeing that Haruno Yamazawa seemed a little unacceptable, Mana Miyazawa also became a little anxious.

She lowered her voice, looked at the other person with a slightly pleading expression and said, "Please, please don't talk for now."

Sawayama Haruno was stunned.

He looked at the three people in front of him and had an indescribable strange feeling.

At this moment, Miyazawa's mother, who had said something "harsh" before, spoke again.

"You're working outside, right? I heard from Mana."

"."

Miyazawa Maki didn't answer her. She wanted to get up and go upstairs to pack her things, but Sawayama Haruno held her legs hard and pressed her down on the sofa.

She first glared at Zeshan Haruno angrily, and then reluctantly said, "Well, so what if I work part-time?"

She didn't want to continue chatting. Since the other party told her to go upstairs to pack her things, she would go now.

Anyway, I have already decided to live with Haruno.

It would be great if the other party could just "agree" like this.

I don't know why, but just thinking about it makes me feel uncomfortable.

Maki thought there must be something wrong with her, right?

She wanted to throw herself into Haruno's arms right now and seek comfort, but she couldn't because "others" were still watching.

The girl felt that she was about to die of injustice, but the next moment, the words spoken by that cold, rigid and heartless mother made her stunned.

“You can still do it.”

This was unprecedented, perhaps the first time in history that Miyazawa's mother said such words.

Looking at her little daughter's ugly face, a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes, but it was well hidden.

"When we were arguing that day, I asked you why you couldn't do it, right?"

"The result is that you gave up on yourself and said that there was no way you could do it, and that if you were not satisfied, you would not be treated as your daughter," she said lightly.

"?"

Sawayama Haruno turned his head subconsciously.

Was this what Maki said to her mother during the argument that day?

"Isn't it because you're comparing me to Mana again?"

Noticing Sawayama Haruno's puzzled look, Miyazawa Maki bit her lip and said with all her might, "You have always been dissatisfied with me, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have said what you said later."

Chapter 146 Entrusting Maki to Haruno

The atmosphere seemed to freeze again.

Looking at the mother and daughter who were arguing with each other, Sawayama Haruno wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

In the end, it was Miyazawa's mother who broke the stalemate for the second time.

"Are you dissatisfied?"

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and said, "Indeed."

"If one daughter is too good, you can't help but want to know why the other daughter can't do it."

"If they are all the same, then there is no reason why there would be someone who cannot do it. This is what I have always believed, but recently."

She paused, and her eyes gradually became complicated.

Sawayama Haruno keenly noticed that she seemed to have something unfinished to say, but after waiting for a while, she still didn't say it.

He guessed that what Miyazawa's mother wanted to say was "Maki has changed recently."

After all, I have moved to a completely new environment and am away from places that would cause me pain.

keep away

"You've been doing pretty good lately."

Finally, Miyazawa's mother sighed helplessly as if she had admitted defeat, and said slowly: "So go pack your things."

"Anyway, if you continue to stay by my side, you'll soon be back to your old ways, right?"

Her tone gradually calmed down and her complexion improved slightly.

Looking at Miyazawa Maki, who lowered her head and remained silent, she slowly explained: "Even if we stay together in the future, even if we realize where the problem lies, even if some things are no longer said, the things we said in the past will always be a grudge. In this case..."

"Just live your life as you wish."

After saying that, she closed her eyes and stopped looking at Miyazawa Maki.

The living room fell into silence again.

Miyazawa Mana slowly stood up and walked towards the stairs.

When she was almost there, she turned around and looked at the people sitting on the sofa in the living room.

After noticing her gaze, Sawayama Haruno hesitated for a moment, but still released the hand that had been holding Miyazawa Maki.

The latter lowered his head, stood up silently and walked upstairs.

As the footsteps of the two women going up the stairs became fainter and fainter, Sawayama Haruno, who had been watching the whole process, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"aunt."

He looked at the beautiful woman sitting opposite him, smiled bitterly and said, "There's no need to talk about this, right?"

".Um."

Miyazawa's mother's chest rose and fell slightly. After realizing that her daughters had finally left, she let out a long sigh of relief, and her face became uglier than ever before.

"I'm telling you a joke."

"No, I just think there is a better way to solve it." Zeshan Haruno said helplessly, "Maki has changed a lot now. I believe that auntie can see it. Why do you still use this method?"

"Zeshan-kun, do you really think there is a better way to solve this?"

Hearing what he said, Miyazawa's mother couldn't help but smile bitterly. "If there really was a way to solve it, it wouldn't have dragged on until today. The reason Sawayama-kun thinks there's a better way is because Maki is relying on you so much right now."

"."

Sawayama Haruno was silent for a while.

But Miyazawa's mother continued to talk to herself: "I am not a competent mother, and I don't think I can become a competent mother in the future."

"Family problems are like a thorn in the heart once they happen, especially when the situation is as complicated as ours."

"Even though I realized that I shouldn't compare my two daughters, even though I realized that my two daughters look exactly the same, they are completely different inside."

At this point, she was silent for a moment, and then she murmured to herself: "Even if we know this, it will be difficult to resolve the knot between us."

"I always thought it was Maki's own problem, until I heard from Mana what happened after she was taken in by you, and then I realized that it was actually a parenting problem."

"Please don't say that. At least Auntie has educated Mana well, right?" Sawayama Haruno whispered.

"I have always believed that Mana's excellence is due to the education she and her husband gave her."

Miyazawa's mother looked at Sawayama Haruno with an increasingly complex expression. She said softly, "But after what happened with Maki, I've started to reflect on this. Could it be that Mana's excellence is simply because she's the older twin sister?"

"It's not because you are excellent that you can become the older twin sister, but because you become the older sister, you must be excellent, right?"

"After thinking about it, I realized I didn't know these two kids as well as I thought."

Miyazawa's mother took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. She said calmly, "Perhaps I should have listened to my husband and had a heart-to-heart talk with the two children about 'that matter' as soon as possible."

"Even though I'm already old, I still have the naive idea that 'if my older sister can do it, then I can definitely do it too'. When it comes to things like this, I'm nowhere near as good as young people like Zeshan-kun."

After that, she paused for a moment and whispered, "That's why I asked her to pack her things, because it's better for her to continue her current life than to bring Maki back to this place where she will only recall unpleasant memories."

"But this may be unfair to Zeshan-kun."

No, I don’t think it’s unfair. In fact, I feel quite good about it. Sawayama Haruno was thinking wildly.

It is indeed very pleasant, hmm. Maki is also very proactive. Although she was very rebellious at the beginning, she became obedient after being "educated" a few times. In fact, she is the type of girlfriend who is cold and slightly spoiled.

What's more, she looks exactly like Mana.

Listening to what Miyazawa's mother said now, it seems that she has seen the relationship between herself and Maki, but she not only does not object, but is in favor of it.

Isn’t that awesome?!

Sawayama Haruno's expression was a little unsettled, the plot always developed beyond his imagination.

Just looking at the beautiful woman sitting in front of him with a slightly lonely expression, he couldn't help but say: "Indeed, it may be because Maki relies on me that I say this, but if that's the case."

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'll make good use of this 'dependence' from now on. I'll make Maki happy enough to forget all the unpleasant things that happened before, and then I'll bring her back here again."

"."

The corners of Miyazawa's mother's mouth twitched slightly, and it seemed to be a somewhat bitter smile.

However, since it only appeared for less than a moment, Sawayama Haruno could not be sure whether it existed or not.

"Sawayama-kun, my Maki. No, my daughter is in your care."

She said as if she meant something else.

Chapter 148: Maki Mana's Complex Inner Heart

"Disgusting"

Seeing Mana's expression, Maki wrinkled her nose and said unhappily: "Seeing your sister sleeping with her ex-boyfriend, you actually have such an expression."

"Just as long as you two are happy."

Miyazawa Mana ignored her sarcasm and said softly, "Maki, you have to cherish Haruno."

"I know that kind of thing without you telling me."
