So Ordinary I Want to Be Recognized

"However, there is another piece of bad news." At this moment, Machida Sonoko poured cold water on him.

"What is it?"

"Because of your grades, the publication time of the second volume may be a little later... Currently it is tentatively scheduled for mid-June. Does it matter?"

"Ah, it's totally fine!"

...actually, it might as well be good news.

After all, the later the publication date, the later the deadline.

The current Mizutaka is completely unable to spare his hands to create novels.

He's not the kind of guy who can do two things at once.

At this time, besides studying, all his spare time was spent on making the music in hand.

At least, before this matter is settled, there is absolutely no way for him to hand over his second volume quickly.

"That's good. The manuscript fee will be credited into your card at the end of the month. Then, I won't disturb your rest, good night!"

"Good night, editor!"

After finishing the chat with Machida Sonoko, Yonezutaku also completely let go of all his worries.

He returned to making music again.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"So, after that, every time at noon, I hid in the toilet alone and ate bento..."

"Whenever I'm sad, I'll cut a cut on my arm. That way, I'll feel a lot better...Although I know it's wrong to do this, but...I just can't help it."

"Sometimes, I just want to stay at home...School is like hell, it's eating me up..."

Seeing these chilling replies, Mizutaka and Yukino in front of the computer fell silent.

The production of the music was completed a few days ago.Now Yukinoshita Yukino and Mizutaku have been discussing... writing lyrics.

After discussion, the two decided to first understand the lives of the so-called "marginal people".

but...

The results of the interview were so terrifying that the two of them found it hard to accept.

The hearts of many interviewees... have already been so distorted and humble that they can't imagine.

"...Let's go and see the student who agreed to meet us." This time, it was Yukino who broke the silence first.

"it is good."

Those bloody words completely interrupted all the thoughts of the two of them.

They can't even come up with any paragraphs of sentences right now.

It didn't take long for the boy and girl to arrive at the cafe they had agreed upon.

Finding where the other party was, the two found... This is a boy who looks a little thin.

"Hello..." he whispered, then quickly lowered his head.

Mizutaku and Yukino looked at each other, and then... sat opposite him.

"Hello." Xue Nai opened the topic first, "Thank you very much for having the courage to come out and talk to us about your... story."

"Well..." He still didn't raise his head, "Thank you too... for caring about me."

"So... shall we begin?"

"Okay." He took a deep breath, and then began to talk about his experience.

......

On the way back.

"minister..."

"What do you want to say?"

"I don't know why, but I suddenly remembered...the old me." Mizunzho took a deep breath and looked at the road in the distance.

"..." Yukino who turned her head to stare at him did not speak.

"The former Mizunzuo always used mediocre talent as an excuse to constantly deny himself, sink into depression, and immerse himself in his own humble world, unwilling to come out." The young man shook his head mockingly, "But, until recently, I gradually discovered that... when you take a brave step, all the difficulties and obstacles... are actually nothing more than that."

"To have such awareness...you have indeed improved."

"Yeah..." The boy suddenly showed a sunny smile, "Do you remember when I first joined the service department?"

"Yeah. The timid way Hiratsuka-sensei pulled you in is not manly at all."

"At that time, my thoughts were probably... the commission received by the service department should be very difficult, and I will definitely not be able to do it well. However, what I didn't think about at the time was that as long as I seriously complete the commission , no matter whether the final result is beautiful or not, those good intentions will be conveyed.”

"That's right." Xue Nai nodded, "It's enough to lend a helping hand and have a clear conscience."

"Yeah, so this time, I also want to have a clear conscience." Mizutaka's eyes became serious, "Maybe it's a bit arrogant to say that, but... if I share my own experience with them, maybe Will they empathize? What I want to convey to them is, don’t be afraid of contacting the outside world, and don’t be afraid of failure...If you can stand up bravely and face everything, you will also feel the tenderness that the world gives.”

The boy who said this gradually recalled himself and the new friends he met this semester.
