Out of fear of worrying her mother, Nagasaki Sase pretended not to have noticed anything.
This situation only improved after I went to Tsukimori High School.
Although this choice was also influenced by my mother's comments about which high school I wanted to attend, I thought Tsukimori was a good choice. I thought you would look very pretty in the Tsukimori school uniform.
The girl, who couldn't say no, went to the Moon Forest just like that.
"Hey, could Shuangshi come with me to the ensemble club?"
"that,"
"I'm too scared to go alone, please!"
So, Nagasaki Sase became a member of the ensemble, while the person who originally wanted to join had long since disappeared.
"A cello?"
"Shuangshi, could you please give it a try? You're so tall, you'd be perfect for the cello."
So, Nagasaki Sase, who originally wanted to choose a small instrument, such as the violin, picked up a cello that was taller than her.
Nagasaki Sasuke has always been this kind of person. She will change into whatever those around her want her to be, according to their requests.
Or you could say she has a people-pleasing personality, which is what makes her a school beauty named Nagasaki Sasuke.
Unlike the original storyline, at this time, Nagasaki Sase's mother remarried, and a stranger joined their home.
Why do I find Mr. Wakaba so annoying?
From their first meeting, Nagasaki Sase harbored a negative impression of Ichinose Wakaba. Even though her mother's description of her made her think Wakaba would be a very good person.
When they met, Nagasaki Sase, who had been wearing a fake smile, almost couldn't hide his expression—why did he find him so annoying?
For this reason, Nagasaki Sosei was unable to acknowledge Ichinose Wakaba as his mother's husband in his later life.
I can't get along well with Ichinose Wakaba.
This feeling reached its peak after the death of Nagasaki Sase's mother.
That day, Ichinose Wakaba went out to handle the aftermath of his wife's death, leaving Nagasaki Sase alone at home. The room was so quiet that even the ticking of the clock on the wall could be clearly heard, and Nagasaki Sase, as usual, hid herself under the covers in her bedroom, as if the whole world consisted only of her and this darkness and warmth.
She was wrapped tightly in the blanket, as if it were a barrier, shutting out the sounds and light from the outside world, and also concealing the vulnerability deep within her heart.
Nagasaki Sase curled up in the corner of the bed, knees pressed against her chest, hands hugging the pillow, her face buried deep in the soft fabric, only her empty but faintly red eyes showing.
She didn't want to face it, nor dared to. Her mother's departure seemed to have torn apart the girl's world, and Ichinose Wakaba's absence made that loneliness feel even more piercing. She was afraid of the silence in the house, afraid that no one would be by her side, even if they were just sitting quietly.
However, Nagasaki Sase didn't know how to express herself, so she could only hide herself in this small space, as if only in this way could she gain a false sense of security.
During that time, Nagasaki Sase, who was home alone, breathed very lightly, as if afraid of disturbing something. Occasionally, tears would slide down her cheeks, quickly soaking her pillow, but she didn't wipe them away.
The girl bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to make a sound. The pain of losing her mother surged like waves, plunging her into an endless abyss.
The outside world seemed to continue turning, but Nagasaki Sase's world had long since come to a standstill. Those irretrievable scenes and lingering memories echoed repeatedly in her mind.
Meanwhile, the girl kept looking at her phone.
Nagasaki Sosei gripped the phone tightly, staring at the chat window still displaying the last message: "Soyo, I don't know why you hate Wakaba, but he's someone Mom loves. Mom hopes you can get along well with him, after all, we're family now. Even Mom would be heartbroken if her daughter disliked the person she loves. So, Soyo, you must get along well with Wakaba, and even if Mom is gone one day, you must continue to live as a family with Wakaba. That way, Mom will be happy in heaven." The phone, which she never put down, held her mother's last message, causing the girl immense pain.
I suddenly remembered that in yesterday's episode, the wooden figure's appearance was messed up, and that's how the wooden figure was destroyed.
unacceptable.
Chapter 48 Mom, I will get along well with him.
"Mommy, waaaaah!"
The girl tried to find a sliver of comfort, even just a moment of warmth, in those silent words, but the cold screen remained unresponsive.
Nagasaki Sase curled up in bed, feeling completely isolated from the world. Just then, her phone screen lit up with a message notification, but she didn't even lift her eyelids. The crisp notification sound was particularly jarring in the quiet room. Nagasaki Sase frowned, tightened her grip on the blanket, and still chose to ignore it.
But within minutes, her phone vibrated and beeped incessantly, as if the sender wouldn't give up. She finally couldn't resist quietly reaching for her phone, tilting her head slightly, using the corner of the blanket to partially block her view, and looking at the messages on the screen. They were from someone, each message short and brief, yet filled with anxiety and concern:
"Shuangshi, are you alright?"
"I'm a little worried about you, can you reply to my message?"
"If it's inconvenient to speak, you can send an emoji."
Nagasaki Sase's hands trembled slightly, but she still didn't reply to the message, because she didn't know what to do.
Facing this person.
“I live near your house. If you need me, I can come to you.”
"I'm coming for you!"
"I'll be there soon!"
Nagasaki Sase's heart began to race as she stared at the string of words. That familiar name and those words...
My heart felt as if it were being gently enveloped by something warm.
Instinctively, Nagasaki Sase threw back the covers, her feet lightly touching the floor. She walked barefoot to the door, but then stopped. She pressed herself against the door, not hearing a sound.
"It was a lie, wasn't it? We're just members of a band, and we've only known each other for less than two weeks."
At this moment, the once bright heart quietly shuts down again.
But just then, the doorbell rang. The clear ring broke the oppressive silence in the room, like a ray of light piercing her tightly closed heart. Her body stiffened, and she instinctively held her breath. She couldn't be mistaken—it must be her.
"Shuangshi, can you open the door for me?"
The voice was gentle yet firm, which brought tears to her eyes.
The brown-haired girl leaned against the door, her hand gently gripping the doorknob, but she didn't open the door immediately. Instead, she closed her eyes and let her tears fall silently.
"I know you're home. It's okay, I can wait for you."
Toyokawa Shoko's voice continued to come through, filled with deep concern.
At that moment, Nagasaki Sase seemed to hear her own heart calling out—Shoko has come, she has really come.
Finally, the girl took a deep breath, forcefully wiped away her tears, and slowly opened the door. There stood Toyokawa Shoko, a warm smile on her face, like a ray of light in Nagasaki's world. Without a word, the blue-haired girl, her hands clasped to her stomach, softly asked, "May I come in?"
Nagasaki Sase nodded, tears welling up again. This time, she finally stopped hiding and allowed that warmth to slowly seep into her world.
In the time that followed, Toyokawa Shoko's companionship and help were like the warm sun in winter, helping Nagasaki Sase gradually emerge from the shadow of his mother's death.
At first, Nagasaki Sosei closed himself off in his own little world, and even when facing Toyokawa Shoko, he could only barely maintain a facade of calm.
However, Shoko Toyokawa, who noticed this, did not point it out, but instead appeared by Sōse's side every day.
She brought her favorite snacks made by the family's maid, her favorite books, and even occasionally secretly brought a small bouquet of flowers to place on Nagasaki Sase's desk, sitting quietly with her.
Shoko Toyokawa rarely urged him or tried to force Sase Nagasaki to talk. She simply told him in her own way, "I'm here. No matter how long you need, I'll be with you."
One day, Toyokawa Shoko brought two tickets to Crychic's live performance and said with a smile, "Souze, do you know why I formed Crychic?"
On the day of the concert, the melody on stage was gentle and lingering. Nagasaki Sase sat in her seat, closed her eyes, and felt the flow of the notes. At that moment, she seemed to return to her childhood, to the days when her mother held her hand and took her to listen to music. Tears involuntarily streamed down her face, but Nagasaki Sase did not hide them. Instead, she felt a long-lost sense of ease welling up in her heart.
Toyokawa Shoko silently grasped the other person's hand, without saying a word, but conveying strength through her warm palm.
In the days that followed, Toyokawa Shoko took Nagasaki Sose to try many new things: picnics together, practice musical instruments together, and even went on a street performance alone with the other members of Crychic.
That day, under the setting sun.
After finishing their solo performance, Nagasaki Sase and Toyokawa Shoko sat side by side on a school bench.
"Thank you, Xiangzi. I always thought that I was the only person in that world."
"Nagasaki Sase said in a low voice, her voice trembling slightly, yet revealing an unprecedented calmness."
Shoko Toyokawa laughed and gently patted her shoulder: "Silly Sōse, that world has never been just you alone. I've always been here, everyone in Crychic is by your side, and so is your father. You just forgot to look back."
The setting sun cast its golden rays upon Toyokawa Shoko's face, bathing her smile in a warm glow. Her eyes were gentle yet resolute, radiating a sun-like strength that brought immense comfort.
Nagasaki Sase looked up at the blue-haired girl, her eyes slightly reddening, and a faint but incredibly genuine smile appeared on her face.
It wasn't a smile to reclaim someone else's smile, nor a smile to respond to everyone's expectations; it was a smile uniquely given to Toyokawa Shoko.
As the sun sets and a gentle breeze blows, the two shadows are stretched long and overlap, like pillars supporting each other.
That day was a special memory for Nagasaki Sase and Toyokawa Shoko; it was a day when their friendship deepened, and it was also the starting point for Nagasaki Sase to embark on a new life.
It's fair to say that if it weren't for Shoko Toyokawa, Sasuke Nagasaki wouldn't have been able to recover from his mother's death so quickly. And if it weren't for Shoko Toyokawa, Sasuke Nagasaki wouldn't have been able to accept Wakaba Ichinose as his father so easily.
Because Toyokawa Shoko once said: "Sou, your father loves you very much, so don't make your father sad."
As she said this, a hint of sadness flashed across Toyokawa Shoko's face. She was thinking of her father, who had become despondent after her mother's death—Shoko's father would definitely try his best.
Therefore, upon seeing her father who prepares bento boxes for Nagasaki Sase every day, Toyokawa Shoko hopes that this father who works so hard for his daughter can receive a response.
Even if he is just a stepfather.
For these reasons, Nagasaki Sase is willing to change her long-held beliefs and try to get along with the father she secretly dislikes.
To help his Toyokawa Shoko, and to ensure his mother could be happy in heaven.
That's what Nagasaki Sase thought, and he tried to work towards that goal.
Chapter 49 Mom, I'm sorry, I still really hate that person.
"Mr. Wakaba, what are you doing?"
The girl's voice trembled, as if she were forcibly suppressing her inner unease. Her hands gripped the hem of her nightgown tightly, her fingertips turning slightly white, and her eyes revealed a hint of panic and confusion.
Just as Nagasaki Sase was about to take a step back, the man suddenly moved closer, his movements so swift that she had no time to react.
Ichinose Wakaba's hand suddenly reached out and firmly pressed down on her shoulder, the force so great that she couldn't break free at all.
The man's eyes were lowered, and his face held an inscrutable expression.
Nagasaki Sase was forced to press her body close to hers, and the pressure on her shoulder felt like a boulder, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Ichinose Wakaba's eyes were lowered, like a deep pool saturated with darkness, unsettling and unsettling. A complex emotion flickered in those eyes, desire like a long-suppressed flame, trying to burn away all the rationality on the surface from the depths of Ichinose Wakaba's eyes.
His gaze was focused and intense as he stared at the girl, like a hunter locking onto his prey, carrying an unyielding and domineering presence.
"Mr. Wakaba, please let me go."
Nagasaki Sase's heart pounded like a drum, her face was pale, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead. Her mind was blank, and she could only instinctively shake her head, muttering to herself.
Her delicate and slender figure seemed as if it would break at the slightest touch. Her skin was as smooth as cream, with a heartbreakingly pale complexion, making her fragile beauty even more captivating.
Nagasaki Sase's face was small and delicate, with a slightly pointed chin and trembling thin lips that added a touch of timid helplessness to her appearance.
I feel like a bad person.
Ichinose Wakaba's pupils contracted slightly, her eyes filled with an undisguised possessiveness, as if every tremor and struggle of the girl only fueled his emotions.
Desire, like an invisible whirlpool, drew Ichinose Wakaba into its depths. His breathing became rapid, and the rise and fall of his chest revealed a subtle sense of suppression, as if he was trying his best to control some kind of impulse that was about to get out of control.
Her slightly drooping eyelashes obscured some of her expression, but could not completely conceal the burning light emanating from her eyes.
Nagasaki Sase's eyes were as clear as morning dew, yet filled with unease and panic. Her eyes drooped slightly at the corners, making her appear exceptionally fragile and innocent. Her long eyelashes trembled gently, each blink seeming as if holding back a tear.
"do not move."
Ichinose Wakaba's voice was low and hoarse, carrying a forceful command, as if even he himself could not back down any further. The urgency and repression in his tone made his desire all the more obvious.
Such a gaze is both scorching and suffocating.
That is the state after desire is ignited, with an incomprehensible aggressiveness and a hidden deep danger.
Nagasaki Sase struggled more and more violently, pushing against the man's chest with all her might, but it was as futile as an ant trying to shake a tree. Ichinose Wakaba's hands gripped her shoulders like iron clamps, the powerful force making it almost impossible for her to move.
Thinking about what was about to happen, despair gradually filled Nagasaki Sawa's eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall, as if she was trying to preserve the last bit of dignity for herself.
Her gaze, sharp as a thorn, filled with helplessness and accusation, pierced directly into Ichinose Wakaba's eyes. However, instead of stopping him, it ignited the most primal desires deep within him.
Ichinose Wakaba's gaze grew increasingly intense, his desire burning like a raging fire. His breathing became heavy, and his chest heaved with an irrepressible urge.
Ichinose Wakaba increased the pressure of her hand, her fingertips sinking into the girl's soft skin, as if she couldn't wait to firmly imprison her in her own world.
At that moment, the girl's eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.
Nagasaki Sosei's helplessness and struggle became a catalyst for Ichinose Wakaba's desires, fueling his inner desires and causing him to completely immerse himself in the reality mode.
You hurt your daughter who wanted to have a good relationship with you.
After you released your inner desires, you saw Nagasaki Sase's once clear and innocent eyes, now filled with disappointment and sorrow. Her eyes were like a pierced mirror, reflecting your sins.
But the way Nagasaki Sase appeared because of you rekindled something else within you.
After that, your relationship with Nagasaki Sase completely broke down.
Although it's unclear why Nagasaki Sase didn't call the police and is still living in the same house as you, this time you've become complete strangers.
