"Hey, hehe, this bed is really big. It doesn't feel crowded even if two people lie on it."

Shinjoka rolled her eyes when she heard this, and said angrily: "This is not prepared for you."

Serizawa Yu smiled at this and didn't say anything. He just hugged her a little tighter, like holding a stuffed toy.

The feeling of emptiness in my heart seemed to have suddenly disappeared a lot.

Shinjoka said a few words to her, but seeing that she still refused to let go, he finally just let it go.

"Good night, Xiaoxiang." The girl whispered in her ear.

There was a gap of several beats.

"Good night, Xiao Xi."

The peaceful night passed like this.

…

Early the next morning.

Chichi, chirp~

Oh no!

Accompanied by the chirping of sparrows and the sound of curtains being pulled...

"Good morning, Xiaoxiang." The girl's gentle voice woke up Shintiaoxiang from her sleep.

Opening his sleepy eyes, what appeared in front of him was a girl wearing a pink apron.

"What...?"

"Breakfast is ready. Okay, go wash your face."

"Huh... you can eat breakfast yourself. Today is Sunday, I want to sleep for a while."

"Even if you say that, eating breakfast on time is healthier for the body? So get up quickly~"

Ignoring the girl who wanted to continue sleeping in, Serizawa Yuu just pulled her up from the bed and pushed her reluctantly to the bathroom to wash up.

As a last resort, Shintiao Xiang could only wash her face and brush her teeth, and then have breakfast as usual.

A fried poached egg, a fried spinach, a bowl of rice and miso soup.

After a simple and delicious breakfast.

Serizawa Yuu washed the dishes as usual, hung the apron she took off on the hook, and then returned to the living room.

"...In this case, we will have to part ways."

She said: "I prepared the dishes in advance and divided them into small portions. Xiaoxiang, you have to finish them obediently."

Shinjoka nodded while playing with her phone, "Well, thank you."

"I put the spare key on the table."

"ok~"

"...Then, I'll take my leave. Bye, Xiaoxiang."

Hearing this, Shinjoka couldn't help but raise his head and glance at her.

"Do you want me to call the president now? Maybe he will be willing to listen to your call?"

A hint of hesitation flashed across Serizawa Yu's face, her hands hanging in front of her skirt unconsciously wrung together, and finally she slowly shook her head.

"Still not working..."

She forced a smile and said: "But on the other hand, after I leave, can Xiaoxiang help me say goodbye to Yusuke-san? Just send an email."

"Yeah, okay."

"...Thank you, there will be no regrets this way~ Hehe."

Serizawa Yu took a deep breath, then smiled and said, "Thank you for your care during this time. Goodbye, Xiaoxiang."

"Well, be careful on the road."

…

There was no surprise, Serizawa Yui just left.

If there was any difference from when he arrived, it was probably that the clothes he was wearing changed from the sailor suit to a long-sleeved sweater and a dress.

Although the clothes are not expensive, they should at least keep you warm.

Shintiao Xiang sat on the carpet doing nothing and sent a message using Line——

[President, Xiao Xi is gone. 】

A few seconds passed.

[President: Got it.]

"What...I don't usually go back to my daily classes, but I'm very interested in Xiao Xi..." She couldn't help but muttered.

The voice echoed quietly in the room, but there was no chatter from the one who always liked to chat with her for fear of loneliness.

"..."

Look at the phone screen and ponder for a moment, then start typing on the soft keyboard.

[Xinjouxiang: Hey, President, if you are in a bad mood, I can come to comfort you~?]

The chat interface was quiet.

"Oh~~~I can't read it back again..."

Shinjoka leaned back on the bed in disappointment, staring at the ceiling aimlessly.

"It's obvious that someone is so cute..."

As if echoing the chat interface on the mobile phone, the room was also silent.

A few moments.

"Forget it, let's go back to sleep..."

Shinjoka said without interest, then rolled over and climbed into bed, got under the quilt and started playing with her mobile phone.

Playing and playing, then gradually fell asleep...

…

I don’t know how much time passed.

When she opened her eyes again, her vision was dim.

The orange-red sunset painted the room, and the unpleasant neighing of crows could be heard outside the window.

Instinctively, I picked up my phone and saw that it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.

In addition, there are no missed calls or even emails.

An indescribable feeling of emptiness filled my mind.

If it were before.

On a day off like this, her phone is almost always flooded with calls and messages.

However, since her status changed, those "friends" in the past gradually rarely asked her out, as if they felt that they were no longer on the same level as her.

Unlock your phone and open Line.

Those chat groups, large and small, were quite lively, but she had set Do Not Disturb mode on them all.

She sat on the bed in a daze for a while. The feeling of hunger prompted her to get off the bed and go to the kitchen.

Opening the refrigerator, it was filled with transparent crisper boxes, all of which were meals prepared by Serizawa Yui in advance.

Potato stew, various side dishes, and her favorite octopus sausage were all neatly packed in crisper boxes.

I casually stewed some rice, heated the things in the refrigerator in the microwave, and had lunch and dinner together.

Although the heated meal is not as delicious as when it was first made, thanks to the girl's excellent craftsmanship, the taste is much better than the convenience store bento.

After cleaning the crisper, Shintiao Xiang made herself a cup of coffee, adding as much sugar and milk as she liked, and then sat down at the table.

Looking around the room, I felt a little uncomfortable with the deserted feeling.

"...how does the president live alone in such an environment without feeling lonely?"

Involuntarily, she thought of Serizawa Yu who had just left in the morning, and the usual lively atmosphere at home.

It feels like raising a puppy. Although it usually feels a bit noisy, it's not that boring at the same time, at least not as boring as it is now.

Unable to bear the silence, Shinjoka put down her mug and stood up from the ground.

"Let's go out for a walk..."

After neatly changing into casual clothes, she took her keys and went out.
