Am I being simulated by their love affair?

The head of the family sat on a recliner, draped in a thin blanket, revealing only her beautiful face. Her eyes were closed, and her cheeks still had a lingering flush from the alcohol, making her extremely attractive in the sunlight.

"Auntie is very satisfied with Songzhi's cooking skills," the girl then messaged. "She said she'll ask you to cook more when we move to our little place."

The boy smiled and pushed open the unit door in front of him—the bright midday sun shone on the tips of his shoes, making him feel relaxed and happy.

Riding his bicycle through the cold wind to Kugayama Station, Jun Matsueda, his hair a little messy, crossed the gate and caught the Inokashira Line tram that was about to arrive.

Twelve minutes later, the green tram slowly slowed down at Hamadayama Station. The boy sitting on the side facing the platform stood up and was the first to step out of the door.

There weren't many people on the platform, and Jun Matsue quickly spotted the familiar figure in pure white. He stepped forward with a warm smile, leaving the middle school girl who was staring at him in a daze behind.

"So Yuhua is wearing the classic color scheme today."

"But it's not the classic style~" Tomatsu Yuka smiled and waved to him, then opened her arms and jumped into the boy's arms.

"Chunjun is so warm..."

Jun Matsue pressed his earlobe close to hers, gently inhaling the soft fragrance of her dark hair.

"Are you dressed too warmly?"

He loosened his grip on the girl's body slightly and examined her attire.

Tomatsu Yuka is wearing a pure white dress today. The layered hem has a hollowed-out texture and tassel lace, which is gorgeous without being complicated or heavy.

The upper part of the dress resembles a high-necked undershirt, with a soft and smooth fabric that accentuates the girl's slender figure. She also wore a beige knitted vest and a dark gray fringed shawl over it, showcasing her gentle and sweet temperament.

"It's not that cold." Tomatsu Yuka took the boy's hand and let him feel her body temperature.

"The temperature has warmed up today, and this skirt isn't thin at the hem. I'm also wearing a knitted vest and a shawl on top, so it's three layers in total~"

Feeling the warmth and softness of her palm, Jun Matsue nodded in relief.

"If you're cold, just come into my arms."

The girl smiled sweetly, "That's not the point~"

Tomatsu Yuka took a step back and gracefully twirled in front of the boy—

With the tassels of her skirt and shawl fluttering in the sunlight, she looked like a pure white butterfly fluttering its wings.

The girl, who had stopped moving, breathed softly, and smiled as she put her arm around her lover's.

"The important thing is whether it looks good or not~"

"Does Yuka ever look bad?" Jun Matsue brushed away the strands of hair stuck to her lips.

"But it looks especially nice today." He looked up at the tram that was starting up again.

"All the passengers on the bus are watching you."

"Really?" The girl didn't turn around, but just winked playfully.

"It's a pity they can only look at the skirt, but Tsun-kun can personally take off my skirt and devour me completely~"

"..." Jun Matsue glanced at her a couple more times, "Keep your voice down."

Tomatsu Yuka stuck out her tongue and hugged his arm.

"There's no one on the platform, it's okay~"

The boy then looked away from his girlfriend—the tram had just left, and there were indeed few people on the platform.

"So what are your Christmas plans? Don't you need to get on the bus?"

He rarely makes decisions when dating Tomatsu, which is both a girl's preference and a tacit understanding between the two.

"No rush~ It's not even one o'clock yet."

Tomatsu Yuka loosened her arms from her embrace and guided it to wrap around her waist.

She took out her phone and showed it the memo.

"Does Jun-kun want to hear what I have to say, or shall we get right to our Christmas date?"

“Let’s get started,” Jun Matsue replied without hesitation. “I’m sure Yuka will have the schedule all arranged perfectly.”

"In that case, leaving me with a bit of mystery would be more novel and interesting."

"Okay~" The girl nodded with a smile and reached into the small handbag slung over her shoulder.

"Let's exchange gifts now! Then we'll take the next train to Shibuya~"

The boy blinked in surprise. "Exchanging gifts directly?"

"Hmm!" The girl took out a small box from her bag.

"Because the gift I gave to Tsun-kun is something you can wear right away, I want to see you wearing it on your date."

“That makes sense.” Junya Matsueda unzipped his jacket and reached into the inside pocket of his coat with his right hand. “Actually, the one I gave him was the same.”

Tomatsu Yuka's smile became even more pronounced.

"That's the unspoken understanding between couples!"

Standing on the platform bathed in bright sunshine and a gentle breeze, the young boy and girl exchanged gifts—the pedestrians waiting for the train seemed to think it was a filming scene, and consciously kept their distance as they passed by.

"Wow..." Tomatsu Yuka stroked the pure white long gift box in her hand and pressed it against her face.

"It's so warm, it still carries Jun-kun's warmth."

"...Yuka, please open it and take a look first." Jun Matsue looked away.

He wondered if the girl was doing it on purpose, but he recalled the way Tomatsu rubbed her soft cheek against something else.

Tomatsu Yuka did as she was told and pulled out the inner box of the gift set, then her eyes widened in surprise.

"What a beautiful hair accessory!"

She carefully picked up the hair accessory in her hand—three pure white roses arranged together with a slight curve, like a crescent moon.

"So beautiful..." the girl exclaimed again.

The pure white rose petals are thin and translucent, made of silk linen, and are adorned with a few leaves and small white hydrangeas. The equally pure white leaves shimmer with a delicate and beautiful satin sheen in the sunlight, making one's breath slow down.

Seeing how much she liked it, Jun Matsue smiled and asked, "Want to try it on?"

"Is this really okay to wear?" Tomatsu Tomohana held up the white rose in her hand. "I'm afraid it will break..."

"Aren't hair clips meant to be worn?" The boy gently shook her hand. "The next tram will arrive in a few minutes."

The girl then quickly pried open the hair clip under the rose and gently inserted it into the thick strands of hair above her ear.

"Is it not crooked?" She turned her face to show the boy.

"No, it's absolutely beautiful," Jun Matsue said softly.

The hair clip made of three white roses sparkled in the sky outside the platform, complementing the girl's black hair and white dress, like the finishing touch that highlighted her pure and innocent beauty.

Tomatsu Yuka smiled sweetly as she put away the gift box and gently touched the roses in her hair.

"Jun-kun, hurry up and look at the gifts, the tram is coming."

The boy looked down at the small square box in his hand—he had just seen this kind of thick little box that morning, in his aunt's hands.

Matsue Jun blinked as he opened the small box with a gold rim.

Sure enough, it was a necklace.

The boy reached out and held up the necklace. The pendant was a miniature saxophone—the body of which was a curved piece of transparent crystal, with delicate gold trim outlining the keys and contours, showing great attention to detail.

Without the girl saying anything, he raised his hand, lowered his head, and fastened the saxophone necklace around his neck.

Jun Matsueda pulled down the zipper on his chest and looked up.

"how do you feel?"

“It suits me even better than I thought!” Tomatsu Tomohana nodded with a smile.

"Tsun-kun's neck and collarbone are so beautiful, it's such a shame he doesn't have a necklace."

A faint whooshing sound came from outside the platform tracks—the tram was about to arrive at the station.

“It’s just a gold necklace…” Jun Matsueda looked down and touched the mini saxophone on his chest.

"Wouldn't it seem too extravagant?"

"What's the question?" The girl blinked.

"Does Jun-kun usually look poor?"

The boy couldn't help but laugh, "Well, it doesn't seem like there is..."

“That’s why!” Tomatsu Tomoka tilted her head back.

The arrival of the train interrupted their conversation, and they fell silent, gazing at the gifts they had given each other amidst the clamor of the tracks, letting the affection in each other's eyes grow.

Once the tram came to a stop at the platform, the narrow world outside the tracks was quiet for a moment, followed by the hurried footsteps of people getting on and off the tram.

The boy and girl, hidden in a sunlit corner, kissed each other naturally—not passionately, not stickily, just like the sunlight falling on the edge of the platform, clean and clear.

They parted after a brief kiss, and Tomatsu Yuka put the necklace box from the boy's hand into her handbag.

"Time to go!"

Jun Matsue took her hand and led her into the tram. The passengers in the carriage all watched the two of them—they had all seen the kiss on the platform.

The boy confidently led his girlfriend to a seat by the window, looking at her subtle smile and the silver roses shimmering in her black hair.

"Does Yuka like this feeling of everyone watching us fall in love?" he whispered in her ear.

Tomatsu Yuka turned her head to look at him, pursed her lips and nodded.

"I wish I could let the whole world see my happiness!"

She took her boyfriend's hand, cradled it in her lap, and played with his distinct knuckles—

Several girls who looked like high school students sat opposite her, chatting quietly while secretly watching her movements with envious eyes.

Actually, I originally wanted to give her a ring—

"A simple, beautiful silver ring, seeing it on Jun-kun's hand, I would definitely feel incredibly happy."

Matsueda Jun moved the fingers she was playing with. "Then why didn't you give them to me?"

“Because happiness needs to be digested slowly~” Tomatsu Yuka laughed again, “First scarves and handkerchiefs, then necklaces and rings…”

"If I give her the ring now, I'll have to rack my brains for gifts for the next four years of university!"

The boy smiled and hooked his finger around hers, as if making some kind of agreement.

“I feel that this hair clip is a bit unstable if worn directly, so I’ll braid a section of Yuhua’s hair and clip it into her hair part.”

"Okay~" The girl took the white rose off her head.

So the girls who were heading to Shibuya together stopped talking and looked at the young couple cuddling together across the street—

Tomatsu Tomoka sat gracefully, holding a silver rose in her hands, while Matsueda Jun meticulously braided her black hair beside her. The two did not look at each other, their eyes slightly lowered, yet the air was filled with their tender affection.

The sunlight shone on them all the way, and the envious girls sitting opposite them just stared at them in a daze, none of them saying a word.

Chapter 827 Tomatsu Yuka's Super Clingy Form

Following the Inokashira Line to Shibuya, Jun Matsueda followed the girl out of the platform, watching the silver-white rose in her hair sway.

“We still need to transfer to the Saikyo Line.” As if afraid he would be in a hurry, Tomatsu Yuka, who was walking ahead holding his hand, turned around and said.

"It's just one stop away, let's go to Ebisu."

The boy followed in her footsteps. "I don't think I've ever been to Ebisu."

Shibuya Station is a well-connected area, with people coming and going in the transfer passages, and young men and women walking towards the other platform.

“I’ve eaten with my mom a few times nearby, but I haven’t really shopped around much.” Tomatsu Yuka snuggled up to her boyfriend, watching him shield her from the crowds.

"Next, we'll go to the Garden Plaza in Ebisu to watch a movie. There's also a Christmas market nearby, so we can browse around there."

“A Christmas market…” Jun Matsueda blinked as he looked at the tram pulling into the station in the distance.

He recalled the criticisms made by the two capitalist ladies that morning—"It's all commercial propaganda!"

"Hmm~" The girl pulled him along, quickening their pace, "But there should be quite a few places in Tokyo having Christmas markets today—"

"Jingu Gaien, Shiba Park, Roppongi, and the area around Tokyo Skytree..."

"In comparison, the Christmas market in Ebisu wasn't anything special—but it's right outside the movie theater, so enjoying the atmosphere is the most important thing!"
