My childhood sweetheart is Nishimiya Glass

Chapter 404 A Day's Difference
…………

"Sigh... I didn't expect that this thing would still be kept."

As Shizuka Miyamura was tidying up the storage room, she looked at the thin rope in the small box in front of her and couldn't help but sigh.

These words caused Tsuna and Shoko, who were quietly tidying up their belongings, to stop what they were doing at the same time.

Their eyes met silently, then fell on Shizuka Miyamura and the thin rope in her hand that held memories.

Shoko asked in confusion, "What? Godmother?"

Unlike Shoko's confusion, Tsuna recognized the rope in his mother's hand.

When they were little, Shizuka Miyamura used thin ropes to measure their height. There were small numbers written on them, but he remembered that the longest rope was only two meters.

"This is the rope we used to measure your heights before." Shizuka Miyamura turned around and waved the rope in front of Shoko.

"Hmm... I remember you haven't used it since the time of the Upper Kingdom."

Shizuka Miyamura paused, as if recalling something.

Since Tsuna and his friends started junior high school, the school has conducted physical examinations every semester, and their height and other information are recorded on the reports, so they haven't been used since.

"After we finish, should we take one more measurement? To complete its final mission?" Shizuka Miyamura said with a smile.

They came to clean out the storage room to get rid of useless items.

Because of Daio Miyamura, he often receives gifts that are of little use.

Storage rooms are mostly filled with this type of stuff.

"Okay!" Shoko nodded in agreement without even thinking.

Tsuna nodded in agreement.

The three of them then sped up, working from 3 p.m. to past 4 p.m., with A-Gang taking out the trash several times along the way.

"Come on, come on,"

Shizuka Miyamura shifted on the beanbag chair in the living room and waved to Yuzuru, who had just slipped into the living room to look for Hachiko: "Let Yuzuru try first."

"What? Aunt Shizuka?"

While still rubbing Hachiko's head, Nishimiya Yuzuru walked over and sat down, puzzled.

"Let me measure your height."

"Measuring height...?" Nishimiya Yuzuru then noticed the white rope next to her, and shook her head, saying:
"No need, I had my physical exam this semester, I'm 152cm."

Rather than measuring his height, she'd rather take Hachiko for a walk in the park and trick that chubby boy into giving her some snacks!

No! It's not called cheating! It's called mutual help; I just don't have enough pocket money right now...

Seeing the displeasure written all over her little face, Shizuka Miyamura didn't press the matter and gently waved her hand:

"Alright, alright, I'll let you two go for a walk."

As he spoke, he casually shoved the white rope into Shoko's hand and nudged Tsuna's back, "Alright, alright, you two go measure your heights and have some fun."

"..."

Speechless, Tsuna turned around and glanced at his mother, only to be glared at by her.

She had already used up her three-minute enthusiasm for this matter on Nishimiya Yuzuru, and now she had completely lost interest.

"Sigh..." Shizuka Miyamura leaned lazily against the armrest of the sofa.

Although her eyes were fixed on Tsuna Shoko at the living room door, her mind was filled with images of the two little kids they used to be.

"Time's up! Both couples, please stop writing now!"

The host's voice rang out again, and the answers from all four people were quickly collected by him.

Do you think that childhood sweetheart couple will lose this time?

"Unlikely. I think this question is more likely to stump the middle-aged couple."

"Now, the answers are revealed! The answers for both groups..."

The host paused, and the audience subtly fell silent. "Both groups have the same answer! They've successfully advanced to the next round!"

"The third group consists of boys who are 175cm tall and girls who are 163cm tall!"

"The sixth group is..."

The scene erupted into noise again, with people pointing and commenting on the four who had successfully advanced, some even shaking their heads from time to time.

Gang had anticipated advancing; they had measured it a few days ago when they were cleaning the storage room at home, and they had to thank their mother for it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even remember how tall he was compared to Shoko; he only knew that he was about half a head taller than Shoko.

The host then posed the ninth question: "The day your girlfriend first made you a bento box!"

As soon as the question board was raised, Tsuna and Shoko's eyes met, and Shoko tilted her head slightly and smiled at him.

It's both trust and a warning...

A-Tsuna smiled helplessly, thought for a moment, and quickly wrote down the answer on the paper.

Although it has been a long time, he still remembers the beginning of that day.

However, this time it was a mistake made by the middle-aged couple, and it was so long ago that they couldn't remember it.

Many in the audience were criticizing the person who set the question, arguing that it was clearly a favor to the childhood sweetheart.

The host and the four members of the group ignored the audience and continued the competition.

"Okay! Last question! Please write down when you first kissed!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, Tsuna and Shoko quickly started writing, while the middle-aged couple gave up immediately, already suspecting that there was something fishy going on!
"..."

"Calendar socks! A shady deal! Refund!"

"This host doesn't recognize my childhood sweetheart! I ran around the shopping street twice aimlessly!"

Many of the audience members had finished watching the excitement and left; they had already guessed the answer.

"Alright! Finally, I'll reveal the answer!"

The host put away the two slips of paper, glanced at them, and then seemed a little stunned.

He thought the big prize would be given away, but the two people's answers were completely different, and he even smelled gossip in them!

One wrote it a day early, the other a day late...

…………

On the way back, there were only a few stars in the night sky.

Holding the silly-looking teddy bear, Tsuna tilted his head, the bear's fluffy ears almost squeezing half of his face flat:
"Well?"

Shoko, who had just popped a takoyaki into her mouth, turned her head with difficulty, her little face full of genuine confusion:

"What?"

Seeing her like this, Tsuna couldn't help but poke her cheek. "In the competition just now, why did you finish the tenth question a day earlier than me?"

"How come I have absolutely no recollection of this?"

At the scene, Tsuna didn't ask anything; she thought the matter was over...

Now, whenever he mentions it, she's reminded of that rainy night when she secretly kissed him...

"I...I...I remembered it wrong!" Shoko's eyes darted around, trying to brush it off.

It had been so long that when the host asked her about it, all she could think of was the day she stole the kiss. She felt a strange mix of guilt and pleasure at the time, which left a deep impression on her…

Tsuna stared at her for a while, only looking away when Shoko looked away guiltily.

I'll go back and settle the score with her, and ask for interest. There are still many passersby and pedestrians around, so it's not a good time to do it...

He woke up the moment she stole a kiss that night, but then pretended to be asleep.

Seeing that he wasn't asking any more questions, Xiaozi stopped feeling guilty and continued to devour the snacks in her hand.

Ayumi Ajitani and Takagi separated after the match ended.
