April is more than your lies

"I'm going to accompany Kousei's competition! I'm so nervous!"

"Okay, okay! When Hesha comes back, no matter how much you trouble me, I will be on your side!"

"One last thing to ask you, Shingo...help me play with Kazusa...I know you can do it. If you dare to say you can't do it, I will laugh at you!"

The girl who has been jumping next to him for many years is probably still sleeping peacefully at this moment, right?

Shenwu fell into memories. He told the stories in his memory intermittently. When he mentioned these, he always felt that... tomorrow would be a good day to invite friends and go out to play.

"Go and see her some other time?"

"I, at this moment... I seem a little jealous."

Hesha pressed the leftmost key a little harder, and the notes that popped up also had a little more force.

It seemed that she was indeed jealous, but fortunately she was able to say it out loud.

"However, it should be said that I envy her... I envy her to be by your side. If it were me now, I would definitely not leave with Touma Yoko again."

"Are you jealous?"

How can any girl be so reasonable when jealous?

Shingo smiled bitterly.

These complaints from Hesha are just her way of recalling the past.

"If this is jealousy, that's fine..."

At least it doesn't need to be so heavy now - of course Shingo knows how he and Kazusa will feel after imitating Kaoru's playing style and mentioning those past events.

But, restraining himself from playing the music in his heart is not something he can do. What's more, he now has the best ensemble and listeners.

"Kazaya...if you leave too, I probably won't be as strong as Kousei."

"It doesn't look like you either."

Compared with Shingo, Kousei is much thinner and quite inconspicuous, but even with Kazusa's favoritism, Shingo does not have his perseverance and tenacity - although he can say that "he has never needed these things" Reasons, but shortcomings are shortcomings.

Hesha used this mild sarcasm to relieve the current atmosphere.

"However, you don't have to be strong because of me... I won't let you have the time to be strong, but... you have to do the same thing."

Because being strong means that it will be difficult, it means that a person needs to bear a lot of things, it means that even if you cry, no one will know...

"That's really nice."

Shingo responded with a smile.

"Hesa, do you want to hear my performance, or Xun's?"

"Hmm... Xun's probably..."

For Hesha to make such a choice, one can imagine the weight of "friendship" in her heart.

"She is not as good as you, but... her music is happy."

"what about me?"

When the bow and strings touch each other, there is a very subtle "feel".

Because of Kazusa's comment, Shingo's feelings were confused, so his movements paused.

"Hesha, in your opinion...what does the sound of my piano sound like?"

"you?"

To this day, I still have not been able to find the light in the "abyss", and Shenwu's piano music does not always hide such deep emotions...

Hesha sighed secretly in her heart, because of her clumsiness, because she couldn't keep up with Shengo's rhythm.

"I don't know...or maybe I can't describe it?"

"I'm the one who should be jealous...Obviously Kazusa only listened to Xun's performance once..."

Having said that, Shenwu still chose to imitate that friend who had passed away - in that final commission, there was no deadline or number of times stated.

He was used to getting into all kinds of trouble, so he didn't mind a little more.

Volume 80: Chapter 79 Chapter [-] He did it without thinking

Volume 79 Chapter [-]

After kicking the dumbbell at her feet and watching it roll far away into the corner, Hesha's not-so-good mood eased a little.

Shen Wu didn't play the piano just now, but spent his time exercising. Even if the two of them stayed in this messy living room all the time, this was enough to make her dissatisfied.

But this time, she didn't lose her temper with Shen Wu. Who told her that she knew he was a "playful" guy, but she still loved him?

Always put time into things that have nothing to do with you...

Complaining in her heart, Hesha's expression returned to its usual cold look after her shoulders slumped.

He also knows that the so-called "love heart" is just that Shen Wu did not fulfill her wishes - unlike her, piano, or even music, is not everything Shen Wu has.

"What's wrong?"

As soon as Shingo walked into the hall, he saw dumbbells rolling past his eyes.

Hesha was still playing the piano when she went to take a shower. It only took 15 minutes for her to go back and forth, but her mood turned from sunny to cloudy... Maybe she was blaming herself for not being with her when she was practicing the piano, right?

"I originally wanted you to play the piano with me."

Kazusa answered straightforwardly.

"But you won't just agree...how can you say there is enough time for practice?"

"But, I don't want to play the piano today."

When living alone, it was not unusual for various musical instruments to be put away for a week, but now, this kind of thing is probably impossible to happen, right?On the contrary, physical exercise and learning have been neglected a lot.

Shenwu smiled. He didn't think there was anything wrong with such a change, because the time he was lazy didn't actually change. He just spent other time on different things.

"Hesha...even if we are concerned about the national competition in the summer, it is a bit too early to start increasing the amount of training, right? There is still a long time before summer."

Some time ago, Hesha's practice time was reduced, but now there are signs of relapse. In Shingo's opinion, it is a good thing for her to relax more. Even music practice that requires a lot of time is not as good as this. statement.

"Who told you that my training volume has increased?"

Kazusa asked rhetorically.

"Lately the practice time isn't even enough for eight hours a day. Don't tell me you're completely unaware."

"For this kind of thing, just let it take its course, right?"

At this time, any negative answer would be regarded as a lie by Hesha, but that was the fact, and Shingo did not defend it.

He always felt that the reason why Hesha would always remember piano practice was because there was nothing that could distract Hesha. Although he could do it himself, most of the time Hesha would think of pulling him to practice together.

If Kaoru was still here, he would definitely be able to take Hesha to all kinds of interesting places. According to her, she had done a lot of strategies for love, and going to an interesting date spot every day would not be the same for a year.

It's a pity that she couldn't go to those interesting places with Kousei, and Shingo had no one to learn from. The only "outings" he could think of, besides traveling to the beach in summer and hot spring trips in winter, were just wandering around the streets. Destination wandering.

"Sometimes, I actually want to go out with Hesha."

"You never told me..."

If she received an invitation, Kazusa would never be able to simply agree - after weighing the balance between practicing and going out, in the end she still couldn't overcome Shingo's persistence...

No, it's possible that Shingo wouldn't insist, and it's not impossible for her to say something like "If Kazusa doesn't want to go, then she won't go" while she was still hesitating.

"When we went out together before, didn't you also say... that you didn't know where to go?"

"Indeed, I don't know where to go..."

Shingo threw aside the towel he used to wipe his hair, and then threw himself into the doghouse as usual, except now, half of his comfort zone was occupied by Kazusa.

"Then think about it more...before you figure it out, practice the piano for me honestly."

"No."

Of course, Shenwu would not refuse such an "unreasonable" request. Playing with Hesha was a happy thing, but so was holding her in his arms. In comparison, the latter certainly made him more willing to immerse himself in it. .

"Hesha also wants to be lazy with me."

"So you also know that you are being lazy?"

"Didn't Hesha always say that I was lazy? After hearing it so many times, I will remember it."

After answering Hesha's accusation in the most shameless way, Shenwu lost the last bit of psychological burden of being lazy.

"However, Hesha... there are many interesting things in this world! Although I don't know where they are, we can find them together."

"But……"

Kazusa's eyes subconsciously turned away. She probably wanted to look at the piano not far away, but her sight was blocked by Shingo's shoulders. When being hugged, she likes to curl up, as if she can enjoy it this way. to more warmth.

"Even in normal times, if we drive out, we can go somewhere farther!"

I don't know if Shen Wu had planned something in advance or if his brain suddenly went bad - it was most likely the latter, because "premeditation" couldn't exist in his mind for too long.

"I do have a car left by Touma Yaozi over there, but I can't drive it. If you want to drive it, I can drive it for you. But, here... can you get your driver's license so early?"

In the eyes of Kazusa, of course, going out is limited to "two people". Although there is such a thing as a driver, but...

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that her thinking could not keep up with Shenwu's doing whatever he wanted.

"It would indeed be better if you could drive..."

"Right!"

Shingo smiled happily.

"I occasionally drive out to play. Dad knew about it and didn't say much to me...just told me to pay attention to safety and so on. Hesha...how about we go out to play tomorrow?"

"We'll go there on the weekend..."

Weekends are a time when you can relax a little. After Shingo told her this, the minimum level at which Hesha could accept her laziness was determined.

"Besides, you can't have all the fun in one night...you might skip class again. I remember what you said, you don't like being treated as a bad guy in school."

"All right……"

Now that Hesha has set a time, it would be nice to have more expectations...

But, the rest of this week will definitely become extra long, right?

Shingo thought so.

"So, these days... you have to practice more with me."

"it is good."

Before withdrawing his thoughts from reality, Shenwu's answer was subconscious.

Volume 81: Chapter 80 Chapter [-] Inevitable Loneliness

"Hesha..."

"Ok?"

Shingo's room is tidy, but that's not always the case - he always messes around with it for various reasons, and only restores everything to its original state when he's free.

After seeing him writhing around the room like a wild boar once or twice, Hesha was not surprised. This time, because they had just decided to drive out together on the weekend during the chat, Shengo planned to put it before going to bed. Find the car keys.

Now it looks like he's in some trouble.

"Have you seen the car keys? I remember... they should be in the room."

"How could I have ever seen something like that?"

Actually, it’s not impossible…

It is common to tidy up again and again, and it is common for odd items that are not commonly used to be missing for a while. You may have seen them inadvertently in a corner, or they may have appeared inexplicably after a while. possible.

But...when I looked for it, I couldn't find it.

Kazusa sighed.

"If you can't find it, you can't find it. It's not a big deal. Anyway, I have a car over there. As for the key, um... I remember Touma Yoko told me where to put it. I can just look for it when the time comes."

"Oh……"

After hearing this, I was careful not to give up.
