My parents divorced when I was a child, and I lived a good life with my mother who worked hard to make money.

Even though my mom is often busy, I work very hard at school and have made some good friends.

Probably, but Su Shi seems to have never gotten rid of this feeling of loneliness.

Following everyone's wishes, I joined the wind band.

Nothing happened after that. No one invited me to form a band, and I didn't have any friends to play with.

In this way, Su Shi was promoted to the first year of high school.

Maybe, I will continue like this.

But what happened today still surprised Su Shi a little, and he was a little confused.

So on the way back, I met this girl named Asai Rakuna.

"Mother,"

Lenai pulled Sushi's sleeve, rubbed his eyes, and yawned.

"Matcha Buffy."

"No, Asai-san..."

Su Shi stroked her fingers together. She felt an indescribable throbbing in her heart whenever she said this surname.

A feeling of longing and nostalgia.

Su Shi continued,

"I'm not your mother. If you want matcha parfait, please find someone else."

After hearing this, Lenai immediately hugged Sushi's arm, rubbed her head on Sushi's shoulder, and said in an almost coquettish tone,

"Mom~"

Hearing Lenai's coquettish behavior towards him, Su Shi felt his heart soften and he was completely unable to withstand the other party's offensive.

What happened to this child?

Such thoughts popped up in Su Shi's mind, but his fingers still began to caress unconsciously.

I absolutely cannot refuse such a request.

How to do?

"Okay, okay, you can have matcha parfait."

Hearing that Su Shi agreed to his request, Le Nai immediately showed a sly smile.

"Mom is so kind."

Hearing these words, Su Shi's heart melted.

But she still tried her best to keep her sanity, raised a finger and said,

"Listen up, Asai-san..."

"Little Lenai."

Hearing Lenai's words, Su Shi understood that she wanted him to call her that, and after hesitating for a moment, she changed her words.

"So, Lenai?"

Hearing this name, tears seemed to appear in Lenai's eyes, and her voice was trembling with tears.

"Mom, don't you want to call me Lenai?"

Seeing Le Nai's aggrieved look, Su Shi immediately became flustered.

"Little Lenai, how about we go eat matcha parfait now, okay?"

She could only say this out of desperation, but it unexpectedly worked very well.

Le Yiling also <Qi? Temple Wujiu (IV) /" Jue Channai immediately returned to her just happy look.

Seeing that Le Nai was fine, Su Shi opened the map on his phone and searched for nearby shops.

"The closest one to here is Yuze Coffee Shop."

"Let's go."

Hearing the name of the destination, Lenai immediately ran to the front, then looked back at Sushi.

"Mom, hurry up."

Looking at the naughty Lenai, Su Shi's eyebrows curved and the corners of her mouth began to curl up without her knowing when.

What a kid.

I can't manage it by myself.

If only her father were here too.

......

Soon, Su Shi and Le Nai walked not far from Yuze Coffee Shop. When they were about 20 meters away from the door, two people came out of the shop.

Su Shi could recognize that the girl among the two was Mutsu Asai, who also said today that she was his daughter.

That boy next to him, if nothing unexpected happens...

When Lenai saw the two of them, he quickly ran up to them, jumped up, hugged the boy, wrapped his legs around his waist, and rested his head on his shoulders.

"Dad, I finally see you."

Su Shi suddenly became nervous when she saw that Le Nai hugged everyone he saw.

"Little Lenai, don't mess around."

It would be bad if Lenai recognized the wrong person.

Even if the other party is really the same as Lenai said, it won’t work.

After all, the other party probably has no memory of the future, so it will definitely be very troubled.

Thinking of this, Su Shi immediately hurried to follow, but was stopped by Mu.

"This person is Dad."

Mu said softly.

"Eh?"

Su Shi looked at the boy in front of her and heard him say this.

"You are, Lenai?"

Yuto guessed this while looking at Lena's face.

"Dad still remembers me."

Le Nai happily rubbed her face against Youren's shoulder, then jumped down and pointed behind her.

"Dad, I brought Mom here."

Yuto looked in the direction Lenai was pointing and saw Suyo.

The two of them looked at each other and felt a little bit of excitement in their hearts.

Perhaps this is a fateful encounter.

This thought popped up in Yuto and Sushi's minds at the same time.

At this moment, Youren felt a strong urge in his heart. Following this emotion, he said softly,

"haven't seen you for a long time."

After hearing this, Su Shi lowered his head and looked away, his expression hardly visible.

When she looked up again, there was a gentle smile on her face.

"Well, long time no see."

Bandoli! Whisper of the Heart!: Chapter 1: Reunion!

Backstage at a dub (livehouse), RAS had just finished a performance, and the members were slumped in chairs or on the floor. But even backstage, the cheers and applause from the audience could be heard clearly. RAS's fan base was growing, and their popularity was soaring. This was RAISE A SUILEN, the Galaxy Battleship of the modern girl band era.

"The audience is getting more and more enthusiastic." Guitarist Rika Asahi said to everyone while wiping the sweat off her face.

"They actually sang 5 more songs, that's incredible." Drummer Sato Masuki's hands were still shaking slightly as he gripped the drumsticks.

"Thank you for your hard work, Asai-san." Bassist and lead vocalist Kazue Zou handed a bottle of water to their support keyboardist Yuto Asai.

RAS's keyboardist PAREO happened to be unavailable today. In the past, RAS's producer Chuchu might have played the keyboard recording directly, but this time Ruiyi recommended a support keyboardist to assist the band.

"You sang 5 extra songs, which is an additional price. I will compensate you. Keyboard hero." Chuchu wanted to settle the bill so that their keyboard player PAREO would not misunderstand that she was not needed.

"Thank you. This is my job. Just as I expected, everyone in RAS is very skilled, and the music they play is very impactful."

“If I had the chance, I would enjoy the entire RAS performance in the audience.”

Yuto Asai took the water, took a sip, and told everyone his thoughts.

"Well, it's better not to call me by my social media handle. Hearing it in real life gives me a kind of, indescribable feeling."

Keyboard hero is a social media account created by Yuto himself, where he posts videos of himself playing the piano in his own music store and on the street, sometimes including songs he wrote himself. Due to his superb skills, he has gained a large number of fans and also brought a lot of traffic to his career as a keyboard mercenary.

"If you need to reserve tickets, just contact me." He Zou Ruiyi also worked as a band assistant, so the two knew each other.

"Why doesn't Asai-san form her own band?" Asahi Rika asked. She has always dreamed of forming a band, and that's why she had the honor of meeting everyone in RAS. Has Asai-san ever thought about forming a band of her own?

"If I find the right person, I'll form one." Asai Yuto thought of his childhood sweetheart. Back then, her last name was Ichinose. He didn't know how she was doing now. We hadn't been in touch since we moved. If he could form a band with her...

At night, the lights are on.

The melodious sound of the piano echoed in Youren's ears, and soon returned to silence.

After playing "The Girl with Flaxen Hair" on the electronic piano, Youren took off his headphones and prepared to go upstairs to rest.

The phone in my pocket vibrated. Who was calling at this time?

Youren took out his cell phone and saw the name displayed on the screen. His pupils shrank slightly and his heart beat faster.

"It's Sushi!?"

Youren answered the call, carefully picked up the phone and put it to his ear.

"Su Shi, what's wrong?"

"Please, Yuto,"

Nagasaki Suyo's voice, with a hint of tears, came from the phone.

"Let me forget all this."

"Eh?"

The next morning, at Yuze Coffee Shop.

"Two cups of Darjeeling black tea." The clerk with short brown hair brought two cups of black tea to the table and turned back to the counter.

"Su Shi, long time no see." You Ren gently stirred the black tea with a spoon containing sugar cubes, took a sip, and quietly observed Su Shi's reaction.

Su Shi said last night that she wanted to forget everything. What did she want to forget? The biggest hurt to her was her parents' divorce. I was with her at that time. I can't say that I can get out of this shadow, but at least I can face it.

Is it because of Su Shi's mother? Not likely, her aunt is a very gentle person. A junior high school classmate? Or something else? Regardless, I'll stay with Su Shi for now.

"Well, long time no see." Su Shi picked up the tea and took a sip.

"We haven't been in touch much since we moved. Where is Su Shi going to school now?"

"It's Moon Forest."

"Moon Forest? That school for young ladies? It must be very hard."

Hearing this, Su Shi recalled how she felt uncomfortable when she first arrived at Tsuki no Mori, how she was at a loss standing at the school gate, how she forced herself to join a wind band she didn't want to join just to fit in, how she chose the bulky double bass as her instrument, and how she always had to cook meals at home and wait for her busy mother until the food was cold.

Thinking of this, Su Shi lowered his head a little, stroking his fingers, hiding his uneasiness, not wanting to worry his childhood sweetheart who he had met again after a long separation.

"I was a little uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it later. What about Youren?" Su Shi said with a smile.

"After spring break, I'm going to enroll in Haneda."

"Isn't Yuqiu a girls' school?" The smile on Su Shi's face almost fell. Su Shi, who was preparing to go directly from Tsuki no Mori to high school, naturally didn't know the situation of other schools, including the fact that Yuqiu had just been changed to a co-educational school this year.
