Chapter 173 The reason why Haruno is inexplicably irritable
Twenty minutes later, inside the Sukiyaki restaurant.
Miyazawa Maki's face turned pale, and she couldn't concentrate even after sitting in the soft leather chair for a long time.
Miyazawa Mana was sitting next to her. Although her expression was also not very good, she was at least agreeing with what Sawayama Ako said.
But her sister looked so bad that she stopped worrying, and even Sawayama Ako noticed Maki's expression.
"Are you feeling unwell, Maki-chan, or is this Sukiyaki not tasty?"
Ayako Sawayama looked at her son's current girlfriend with some confusion.
The other person's pale face is just like the reaction of a person suffering from heat stroke, but now we are in the store, the air conditioning is still very cold, so he shouldn't suffer from heat stroke.
“Sorry, there are too many people.”
Noticing the gazes from several people, Miyazawa Maki said dejectedly, "There are too many people in the store, and I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Maki is a little shy outside, so..." Miyazawa Mana took over the topic and said helplessly, "That's why it's like this."
"Is that so? If I had known, I would have gone to a store with less people."
Hearing this, Ako Sawayama looked at Maki Miyazawa with some apology.
She didn't think too much about it, she just thought that the business in this store was pretty good. Now that she thought about it carefully, the seats were full and there were even people walking around constantly, which did seem a little uncomfortable.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Miyazawa Maki said dejectedly.
She didn't want to leave a bad impression on Aunt Yazi, so she decided to go to the bathroom to wash her face.
Seeing her leave, Mana's expression became a little hesitant, but it was well captured by Ayano Yui.
"The difference in hairstyle is really convenient."
Ayano Yui suddenly said: "As long as the hairstyles are different, it will be easy to recognize which twin is which, right? If the hairstyles are the same, I'm afraid my brother will make a mistake."
After saying that, her eyes slid across Miyazawa Mana's face intentionally or unintentionally, and her intention was too obvious.
Sawayama Ako, who was sitting next to her, naturally heard her hidden meaning, but after thinking for a moment, she smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if they look the same, because whether it's Mana-chan or Maki-chan, both of them have lovely personalities, and the differences are huge. Haruno may be a little slow, but he can still see it."
"Yes"
Miyazawa Mana's smile became a little forced.
She realized that Ayano Yui, who was originally a helper, had just tried to defect.
Ayako Sawayama, who was supposed to ask her some difficult questions, suddenly spoke up to help her out.
it's wired.
"Haruno really received a lot of care from you guys."
Sawayama Ayako suddenly put down her chopsticks and smiled gently, "Because Haruno has been staying alone in Tokyo, and there are no other relatives who can take care of him, I have always been worried that no one will care about him except Mana-chan. But now it seems that the child may be worth worrying about in terms of popularity."
"Even without Maki and me, Haruno will definitely be able to live well." Miyazawa Mana whispered.
Rather, it was because of these two that Sawayama Haruno was dragged into the vortex of trouble.
I guess Haruno must have felt a sense of betrayal sometimes.
All you have to do is put yourself in her shoes. The more fun she had when she was imagining the "story" between Maki and Haruno, the more guilty Haruno must feel.
Because the other person is essentially a gentle person, after seeing Maki's body that is exactly the same as his own, he will definitely remember the time they spent together.
In the final analysis, the three of them are in this immoral relationship, constantly enjoying themselves but also feeling guilty.
"Auntie, I am that relative, I can also take care of my brother."
"It's good enough that you don't cause trouble for Haruno. Obviously your mother wants you to wait until next year to move in, right?"
"What's the matter? Just treat it as getting used to it in advance."
Looking at Ayano Yui and Sawayama Ako chatting in front of her, Miyazawa Mana sighed silently in her heart, but the expression on her face remained the same as before.
Some words seem to be stuck in the throat and cannot be said, but also seem like they can be poured out at any time.
Just like this, looking at Haruno's mother's just the right gentle smile, she couldn't help wanting to confess something several times, but in the end she was forced to suppress it.
can not say.
How could he say that he wanted a threesome, especially since he was planning to give up and help Maki and Haruno.
When Aunt Ako finds out, she will definitely blame Haruno, and when Haruno finds out, he will definitely not be able to accept it.
So now I have to pretend, pretending that we have broken up peacefully and that I support my sister's relationship with my ex.
More and more random thoughts appeared in her mind, but it was Ako Sawayama who finally brought Miyazawa Mana back to her senses.
"Mana."
Ayako Sawayama called her name softly.
This young and somewhat excessive aunt looked at Miyazawa Mana's current appearance and unconsciously revealed a relieved smile.
"No matter what kind of person Haruno is now or in the future, please allow me, as his mother, to express my gratitude to you. After all, he has received a lot of care from you in the past."
"Auntie, you are too serious"
Miyazawa Mana bit her lip, her eyes becoming more guilty.
She is actually not as good as Auntie Ako said, because she really wants to see Haruno being fucked by other women.
Therefore, when I heard these words of thanks from the other party, instead of feeling better, I felt a stronger urge to vomit.
Please stop talking to me like this, Aunt Ako, and please pay more attention to Maki.
After all, she is Haruno's real girlfriend now.
"I am back."
As if what she thought would come true, Maki Miyazawa washed her face in the bathroom and returned to her seat. As soon as she sat down, the short-haired girl noticed her sister's strange expression, so puzzled that she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
What happened to Mana?
Did something interesting happen when I was away?
"And Maki."
Ako Sawayama suddenly turned around and looked at Maki Miyazawa, also smiling and saying, "If you have the chance, please come with Haruno to visit the countryside of Osaka."
“Hey.”
Miyazawa Maki straightened her back immediately and said nervously, "Yes, I know."
Although she didn't understand which dialogues were skipped before, she still understood the meaning of this sentence.
Sawayama Ako is welcoming her and Haruno to meet other family members. Does that mean she is actually very satisfied with herself?!
Won again!
Miyazawa Maki immediately glanced at Mana in a somewhat ostentatious manner, but when she saw that the other party had an expression that seemed a little strange, she curled her lips and looked away.
Never mind. It's boring.
The content of the following conversation unconsciously shifted towards Miyazawa Maki.
Although compared to her sister Mana, Maki, who currently works part-time in a video game store, seems a little less reliable, but fortunately, Sawayama Ako didn't say much and didn't seem to mind at all.
After the meal, Ayako Sawayama, who seemed to be still unsatisfied with the time her ex-daughter-in-law and current daughter-in-law had spent together, even asked to go shopping together.
Since it was a rare opportunity for her to come to Tokyo, although she always felt something was strange, the three girls, each with their own "ulterior motives", still accompanied her to stroll around Shibuya for a whole day.
It was not until it was already so late that they took the tram home with their large and small shopping bags.
Ginkaku-ji Temple, Kyoto, 10:40 pm.
Sawayama Haruno finally stopped what he was doing.
Looking at the computer full of files, he couldn't help rubbing his eyes and yawning again.
"It's finally over."
He sighed slightly tiredly.
After spending a lot of time, I finally finished the subsequent 10,000 words, as well as the previous parts that needed refinement.
Now thinking back on his experiences in Kyoto over the past two days, he could only describe them as muddled and confusing.
Since I came in on Wednesday, I haven't gone out for nearly two days. I have been staying in my room working on the manuscript, and now I have finally finished it all before Friday afternoon.
Of course, all this is inseparable from the help of a petite girl.
Thinking of the other person's figure, Sawayama Haruno's gaze couldn't help but move to the red comments next to the document.
Those were basically left by Mine Shiori. Since she came back at noon, she had been constantly checking the content she had sent later.
Sawayama Haruno estimated that the other party should not have rested yet, but started a new round of review.
"I guess I'd better persuade her to take a rest first."
Sawayama Haruno rubbed his brows and smiled helplessly.
Anyway, it's just a preliminary exam, so there's no need to rush. Moreover, from his current perspective, he has tried his best to restore the plot of the original novel.
After thinking for a moment, Sawayama Haruno opened his mailbox, put the completely edited novel document into the email, and also kindly added a reminder to urge the other party to have a good rest, and then sent it directly to Mine Shiori.
He had promised the other party that he would be the first to show the work to the other party after he finished writing it.
Although Mine Shiori is helping with the review every day and is probably almost able to memorize the contents of the novel, the mentality of checking is still somewhat different from that of simply reading. What's more, the documents sent before were basically sent in separate parts, and what is sent this time is equivalent to a complete collection.
Um.
I might as well send a copy to Suguha as well.
Sawayama Haruno thought of what the other party said this afternoon, pondered for a moment, and finally found the other party's email address, then sent all the documents over.
For both Shiori and Suguha, a message popped up quickly indicating that the email had been received.
After noticing this, Sawayama Haruno finally relaxed completely and had the leisure to deal with other things.
He still hasn't forgotten the surprise attack that happened this morning, but Ayano Yui has been trying to fool him in her messages, and Maki has been sending him very few messages, probably because her mother has been pestering her to talk?
It's not impossible.
Sawayama Haruno sighed, after all, his mother was that kind of person.
It seems that I have to wait until tomorrow to contact her again. It’s so late, and I don’t know what Maki is doing.
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but guess in his mind what might happen, but no matter how he guessed, he could only guess that bad things would happen, so he looked even more tired.
The strange feeling in his body seemed to have sensed his mental slackness and began to slowly reappear.
"As expected, once you are away from work, you will become irritable?"
Sawayama Haruno rubbed his eyebrows and couldn't help frowning.
In fact, he felt something strange when he was typing in the afternoon, as if it was difficult to concentrate.
I always can't help but think of the tenderness between me and Maki a few days ago.
However, considering that he was writing "Norwegian Wood" after all, he also went back to look at some of the places that were difficult to describe during the fine-tuning process, so this "irritability" might have been influenced by the novel?
Sawayama Haruno wasn't too sure either.
However, while he was trying to calm down, there was a slight "bang" sound outside the door.
It was the sound of footsteps, and the person seemed to have made the noise on purpose.
