Lonely Rock for the Blind

Nekoyashiki Haru looked at Ijichi Nikka.

Is this... like it?

Then he looked back at the stage.

Actually… he didn't feel anything.

I don’t feel excited or moved.

but…

Ijichi Hoshige's smile made Nekoyashiki Haru feel warm.

It’s like... as long as they smile, I will be very happy.

The blonde woman suddenly hugged him.

Nekoyashiki Haru's body trembled slightly.

"Ijichi...Auntie?"

"Xiaoqing looks very happy. Is it because you like the band?"

“…probably… not.”

Nekoyashiki Haru shook his head.

"I think... I'm just happy because Sister Xingge is smiling."

"... "

The woman held Nekoyashiki Haru a little tighter.

"Xiaoqing, you always focus on other people."

"... "

"I know this is Xiaoqing's way of showing that she likes us, but there's no need for her to be so distant all the time."

The woman rubbed Nekayashiki Haru's hair affectionately.

"You are ours too..."

Chapter 195: Autumn Flowers (5) [Return]

"Ah, I have to go to the celebration party."

Ichichi Hoshige waved at the other three.

"You guys go back first. I might not be going back tonight."

"Pah! Who cares about you?"

Ijichi Hongxia made a face.

Nekoyashiki Haru looked at Ijichi Nikka.

"You were obviously having fun watching it just now?"

"That…that's different!"

Ijichi Hongxia turned her head.

“I still hate bands the most!”

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked.

He felt that Ijichi Hongxia was just talking.

Maybe she's like her sister.

I think he is also a person who likes rock music.

Nekoyashiki Haru raised his head and looked at the back of Ijichi Hoshika as she walked away.

Suddenly, a feeling of uneasiness seemed to come over me.

Because... the departure of family members?

Nekoyashiki Haru suddenly thought of it and then opened his eyes wide.

"…family?"

"Xingge!"

Suddenly, Aunt Ichichi's voice sounded from behind.

In the distance, Ichichi Hoshige turned around.

"what happened?"

"...Mom, what I'm saying is, while chasing dreams with friends is great, you should also prioritize spending time with your family...right?"

"…ah…"

Ijichi Xingge blushed and felt a little at a loss.

The band members around him looked at Ichichi Hoshige with a smile.

This made Ichichi Xingge feel even more ashamed.

"I know! Let's go!"

Ijichi Xingge yelled, then quickly ran in the other direction.

"... "

Aunt Ijichi gently put her hand down and patted Ijichi Nikka and Nekayashiki Haru gently.

"go home."

...

……

.........

"It's like this again, and like this again, and like this again!"

Ijichi Hongxia looked at Ijichi Xingge with dissatisfaction as she was wearing shoes at the entrance.

"Didn't we agree on this? You'll go to the playground with me and Kitty today?!"

"Ahh... I have a very important performance and will be very busy with practice later on. I don't have time to play with you two!"

Ichichi Hoshige stood up and walked towards the door.

"Besides, you two can have fun together without me!"

Hearing the sound at the entrance, Aunt Ijichi walked over holding Nekayashiki Haru's hand.

"Xingge seems particularly anxious today."

“Because our band can perform at the Rainy Bar! So every practice and live performance from now on is very important!”

Ichichi Xingge said seriously.

"But...but you clearly promised me..."

Ijichi Hongxia lowered her head.

"I've already said there's nothing I can do. Don't you have sunshine?"

Ichichi Hoshige opened the door.

"I…I want everyone to be together!"

Tears welled up in the corners of Ijichi Hongka's eyes.

"That... Xingge."

Seeing Yidichi Hongxia crying, Aunt Yidichi reached out to Yidichi Xingge.

“Being with friends is great, but family…”

"I know all that! It's so annoying!"

Ichichi Xingge yelled and ran out the door.

“Wooooooaaaaa…”

Ichichi Hongxia burst into tears.

Nekoyashiki Haru walked forward and gently hugged Ichichi Nikka.

"This child..."

Aunt Ijichi, who was at the door, sighed and looked at the two people in the room.

"Hongxia, please don't cry..."

Aunt Yijichi walked forward and gently touched Yijichi Hongxia's head.

"Liar...big liar!"

"Aiyah... you're pursuing your dream after all. Please forgive your sister."

Aunt Ijichi said softly.

"No forgiveness! I don't want to forgive you! The band has turned me into a bad person! I don't want to be in a band anymore. I want to be a civil servant!"

"Ah ha ha…"

Aunt Ijichi laughed.

“Why are you laughing!”

Ijichi Hongxia looked at her mother with dissatisfaction.

"Yeah... being a civil servant is a great career, but being a band member isn't bad either."

“…Not bad?”

Ichichi Hongxia tilted her head.

Nekoyashiki Haru also raised his head and looked at Aunt Ijichi.

"Because, Hongxia has seen how Xingge shines when she pursues her dreams, right?!"

“…I…I haven’t seen it.”

Ijichi Hongxia shook her head.

"Last time, you smiled very clearly."

Nekoyashiki Haru reminded.

"Actually, Hong Xia doesn't hate the band, right?"

"... "

Ijichi Nikka looked at Nekayashiki Haru with a little displeasure.

"I…"

"So forgive your sister. She'll definitely pay more attention to you in the future. It's just that right now she's a little... um, immature?"

"…Then…then I should be the mature sister?"

"right!"

Aunt Ijichi smiled.

...

……

.........

"Sorry, Rina, for letting me stay at your place."

Facing her band members, Ijichi Hoshika clasped her hands together and apologized.
