I push the kid!

About forty minutes later, Hoshino Ai came knocking on the door. It was almost half past seven.

"I'm Hoshino Ai, sorry to bother you."

Makimura Taku responded from inside and was about to open the door, but Ogura Tomoki stood up before him and said, "I'll go open the door."

After saying that, he ran to the entrance without waiting for Makimura Taku's consent.

The door opened and Hoshino Ai stood outside.

"Youxi," she waved, "Good morning~"

"Good morning, Xiao Ai, you are here too?"

"Yes." Hoshino Ai said, "Makimura said he wanted me to visit him, so I came here. I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Mucun has long said that he wants me to come to his house once, so I came here very early today."

"That's it." Hoshino Ai smiled.

"Come in quickly."

"it is good."

Hoshino Ai took off her shoes and Ogura Tomoki took her to the living room, where Makimura Taku was putting the washed fruits into a plate.

"Why are you washing the fruits?" Ogura Tomoki looked at him questioning his discriminatory treatment.

Makimura Taku responded with an expression that said, "Who told you not to give me time to prepare when you came?"

"Good morning, Makimura!" Hoshino Ai waved at him.

"Good morning." He looked up at Hoshino Ai.

Hoshino Ai wore a light blue plain short-sleeved shirt and a pure white long skirt.

The socks only reach a little above the ankle and have a bow at the heel.

She didn't let her long hair down today, but tied it into two ponytails hanging in front of her body. Her hairstyle was almost exactly the same as the day she was in Karuizawa.

“This hair…”

"It's a little hot, so I tied it up." Hoshino Ai gave a cute smile.

"Yeah." Makimura Taku nodded, "It looks good."

Tomoki Ogura looked at him from the side and thought to himself, I obviously changed my hairstyle too, but you didn't even mention it.

She cursed Makimura Taku twice in her mind, calling him an idiot.

Makimura Taku ignored her gaze and said to Hoshino Ai:

"There's nothing fun to do at my house. Why don't you sit down for a while and watch TV or read a book?"

"Okay." Hoshino Ai nodded, but did not sit down in a hurry.

She looked around and said admiringly, "It's a very clean room. It doesn't look like a high school boy's room at all."

"I'm not a high school boy anymore."

"Yes," she said, "but you feel a bit like a high school boy. Maybe it's because you look so good in a uniform?"

"so."

"He's Ethics-kun after all," said Ogura Yuki. "We have more and more things in common."

“Haha, that’s the feeling.”

Taku Makimura said nothing and started making coffee.

The two girls chatted about this topic for a while on the sofa, and even Ogura Tomoki smiled.

About six or seven minutes later, someone called Ogura Tomoki. She took out her cell phone, took a look at it, and ran to the balcony to answer the call.

When Taku Makimura asked her what was wrong, she just said nothing was wrong.

Only Makimura Taku and Hoshino Ai were left in the room.

"Makino." After Ogura Yuki left, Hoshino Ai suddenly asked him, "Can I visit your bedroom?"

"You're coming too?"

"also?"

"There's nothing inside. You'll be disappointed if you see it."

"It's okay." Hoshino Ai said, "I'm just a little curious... What does disappointment mean?"

Makimura Taku shook his head and said, "Go and see if you want to."

Hoshino Ai did not refuse and said, "Okay, then I'll go in and take a look," and pushed open the bedroom door.

Taku Makimura poured three cups of brewed coffee and placed them on the table.

Tomoki Ogura was still answering the phone outside, and would glance inside from time to time.

Makimura Taku took a book and looked at it.

Hoshino Ai came out two minutes later and sat down next to Makimura Taku very naturally.

"Can I have some?" She stretched, sat down with her legs together in a very feminine manner, and picked up a cup of coffee on the table.

Makimura Taku smelled a faint fragrance, like sandalwood.

He nodded, still looking at the book: "Drink it."

"Your room is really boring."

"I told you you'd be disappointed," said Taku Makimura.

After the last lesson, he deliberately put the photo of the two of them into the pile of books, and Hoshino Ai probably didn't see it.

"But it's almost the same as I thought." Hoshino Ai smiled at him and took a sip of coffee.

"Yeah."

"Ah."

The TV was not on and the doors and windows of the living room were closed.

The only person who could make noise was Tomoki Ogura, who was answering the phone outside the soundproof glass. There was no sound around him.

It seemed as if they were the only two people left in the world.

Hoshino Ai blew the hot steam from her coffee.

"It's not hot."

"Ah, it's not hot."

"That's good."

Hoshino Ai blew twice more, then glanced at Makimura Taku who was reading seriously beside her, and turned her face back to the coffee.

"Is it beautiful?" She seemed to be talking to herself.

"Not bad." Makimura Taku replied.

"You didn't even look at my face, Mucun." She turned around and said with a smile.

Makimura Taku felt a little embarrassed by what he said: "Sorry."

"What are you apologizing for?" Hoshino Ai said, "I just think it's a little weird, but it's cute. You're so funny."

Makimura Taku closed the book and didn't want to read it anymore.

"How do you describe cute?"

"I just like it."

"like?"

"Yes."

"You don't even know what love is, but you're getting more and more proficient at saying it."

"Why don't you understand? I know it clearly."

"tell me the story."

"I like you."

"lie."

"Then say it twice, I like you."

"lie."

“Three times!”

“It’s the same over and over again.”

Chapter 92 If You Don't Remember It, It Will Disappear

Chapter 92 91. If you don't remember it, it will disappear

Makimura Taku sighed and stood up from the sofa. Hoshino Ai thought he was joking and kept her eyes on him.

Makimura Taku turned around and asked, "You want more coffee?"

"Ah, no thanks." Hoshino Ai replied, "I haven't finished drinking yet."

Taku Makimura nodded, walked to the kitchen, refilled himself half a glass, and sat back down. Tomoki Ogura also came back from the balcony.

"Your coffee is on the table."

"Really?" She closed the glass door and walked to the sofa.

The other two looked at her. She stood there with her hands on her hips and drank her coffee in one gulp. "Not bad."

Makimura Taku was a little surprised: "...There's no need to drink so quickly."

Ogura Yuki pursed her lips and licked the coffee residue at the corner of her mouth. She looked in the direction of the two people and said, "I have something to do. I have to go back first."

"What's wrong?" Hoshino Ai asked her.

"Nothing," Ogura Yuki said, "Something at home, like an event or something? Even I have to attend, what a hassle."
