Goto Ichisato's cheeks turned red.
"For Koichi, what kind of person is Hikaru?" Kotobuki Tsumugi asked with a more specific question.
"Um......"
Faced with such a question, Goto Ichiri remained silent for a long time.
But the girl who asked the question did not rush to ask, but allowed the silence to spread along with the rising water vapor.
Finally, after thinking for an unknown amount of time, Goto Kazuri spoke.
"Light... is an existence as dazzling as a star... it keeps walking on the road of progress without stopping... and does not give people a chance to breathe... No matter when, it will make people want to follow The thoughts behind him..."
"Really? For Xiao Yili... Xiaoguang is a shining star..."
Kotobuki Tsumugi couldn't help but raise his head and look at the sky.
But the bathroom is not open-air, so you can't see the sky or the stars.
All that could be seen were tiny drops of water condensing on the ceiling, like stars.
"But... the light is so dazzling, it's more like the sun than a star..."
Goto Ichisato lowered his head unconsciously.
His own cheeks were reflected on the steamy water.
"Just feeling the light and heat emitted by the sun makes me want to get closer... But the closer I get, the hotter I feel, and the more I realize the unreachable distance between myself and the sun... The light is so excellent, I can't compare to him at all. Even his back is almost invisible...I don't deserve it at all...Compared to such a luxurious mansion, a dim and moldy closet in a small room is more suitable for me. ..."
Unconsciously, Goto Ichisato poured out all the troubles in his heart.
In the past, when I was troubled, I could only worry alone. Now I finally have someone to talk to, and I accidentally talk too much.
"Ah...hug...sorry! Sister...I said a little too much..."
Goto Ichiri quickly turned her gaze to look to her side, but what she saw was a look of distress in her eyes.
"Don't think so! Xiao Yili."
Snapped--
An arm reached out of the water and pressed on Goto Kazuri's shoulder.
"There is nothing unworthy. Xiao Yili is also a very good person, a person who shines with his own light. We all like Xiao Yili very much, so does Xiaoguang, so do I...so does dad."
"elder sister......"
"And...Xiao Yili, in my opinion, Xiaoguang is not a person who radiates light and heat like the sun as you said."
"Eh......"
"Xiaoguang used to be very dark. He didn't have any friends. When he encountered grievances, he would only keep it in his heart. He liked to hide in the closet and cry alone. He would lose his temper with his father at every turn. He also liked to subconsciously escape when things happened. ..."
Goto Kazuri heard similar words from Kotobuki Mitsuru.
But when I heard it at the time, I just felt a little incredible.
After all, this description and the light in my own impression are completely different.
"Xiaoguang became what he is now... all because of meeting Xiaoyili. If there was no Xiaoyili, Xiaoguang would still be the same as before, a completely grown-up child."
"I...it has nothing to do with me..." Goto Ichiri felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"Xiao Guang is so dazzling because of Xiao Yili...His light blooms because of you, so Xiao Yili is definitely qualified to stand up and enjoy everything he has now."
"elder sister......"
There are no words to express my gratitude.
Chapter 241 Never look back
I chatted with my father about the band in the study, and then the conversation unknowingly extended to what I had experienced since leaving home.
As if a reservoir had opened its floodgates, Qinbuki revealed all his experiences outside.
It's like I wanted to say it a long time ago.
It feels like I talk to my father more now than I did in the whole year.
I never thought I could be so sentimental.
"Do you feel happy living alone outside?"
Before leaving, the man who had listened silently to his one-sided talk of boring things for almost an hour asked such a question.
Then he waited for Kotobuki Hikaru's answer.
This question seemed to be asking Qinbukiguang, but also seemed to be asking himself.
Faced with this problem, Kotobuki was stunned for a while.
First, he was thinking about the answer to this question, and second, he was a little surprised that his father would ask himself such a question.
He opened his mouth, but the answer he subconsciously wanted to blurt out was not spit out.
It’s natural to be happy. Compared to following the routine at home, it’s better to be free and at ease outside.
But compared to this affirmative reply, the first thought that came to my mind was to complain.
I really wanted to tell my father about the difficulties of living alone, but the next moment I felt that it was a bit pretentious to talk about such insignificant things.
That would only show that you are not mature enough.
I have such thoughts just because I have never complained to my parents like ordinary children.
"Happy, every day."
In the end, Kotobuki Mitsuru gave a positive answer.
"That's good."
The man's answers were always so concise, and there was no follow-up, and he fell into silence.
Kotobuki was silent for a while, thinking he would continue to ask.
"Father also left home...did you feel happy during that time?" Kotobuki Hikaru asked.
After the boy's question was spoken, the man's eyes began to soften the next moment.
Silence, a long silence, filled the study room where the light was still on.
In the end, the man shook his head, with bitterness hidden under his expressionless face.
"It's just a past event not worth mentioning."
He had already completely sealed the memories of his youth, and would never mention them to anyone, so that even his biological children did not know that he had had such a past with Goto Ichiri's father.
"But it is also a very important memory for my father." Kotobuki Hikaru was sure.
If this were not the case, his father would never have shown such a gentle expression when he saw Goto Naoki again.
Like himself, he will sometimes want to escape, escape from his past, and escape from his past self.
"That's right."
Halfway through the words, Kotobuki Hikaru saw his father lying on the chair a little tired, his eyes looking at the ceiling reflecting the light with a dull look.
"But I've never heard you mention it, Father."
Kotobuki Hikaru was a little puzzled.
If it were me, I would never regret the decision I made, and I would definitely talk about my memories with others like a show off.
"It's just because it's so important that I feel regretful when it has to end."
Kotobuki Mitsuru's memory gradually turned to the time when autumn had just begun, when he reunited with his father at school.
Although it was just a few words, it seemed that his father had to choose to leave because of changes in his family.
"Then...father, do you regret it?"
Since there are regrets, then regrets are natural.
If there hadn't been such changes as before, he would definitely be living a completely different life now.
Just like myself now, I can say the word happiness with a clear conscience.
"No regrets."
Kotobuki Hikaru once again heard the answer that was completely opposite to what he imagined.
"To regret the choices I have made is just to escape from who I am now. Having some regrets will only make me have some illusions about another life. Regret It’s absolutely impossible.”
The next moment, the man sat up straight, resting his elbows on the table, covering half of his face so that Kotbuki couldn't see his current expression.
"At least... for me, with you and Tsumugi here, I have never failed to live up to the responsibilities my body carries. As a man, I am very happy to have such a precious treasure, so there is no need to regret it."
Kotobuki Hikaru was a little moved, but felt a little empty in her heart.
"Father...Am I a little irresponsible..."
Kotobuki now admires the choices his father has made in the past. Compared to them, he is really just a child who ran away from home.
"Of course, for a Kotobuki master, you have absolutely no idea what responsibility is, and what you are doing now is definitely not what you should do as a Kotobuki master."
Sure enough... I still received such criticism.
"but."
When Kotobukiko felt a little disappointed, the man's conversation suddenly changed.
"As a father, I also have the responsibility to wipe the butt of my irresponsible son. Moreover, you are not only responsible for this family, you are also responsible for your band, for Yili, and for your current situation. You are responsible for everything you get.”
It is said that loyalty and filial piety are in dilemma since ancient times, and this is probably what it means.
Kotobuki Mitsuru just listened to what his father said one-sidedly, just like he was listening to himself one-sidedly just now.
"If you still choose to run away now, it will definitely be terrible. So, before you are exhausted, never look back and have those messy thoughts again."
After the words were spoken, there was no further follow-up.
"I have some work to do. It's already very late. Please leave first."
"OK......"
Kotobukimitsu silently accepted his father's eviction order.
Then he turned around and walked slowly towards the door.
"Thank you...Father."
After leaving these words, Kotobuki Hikaru opened the door without looking back to see what the man's expression was now.
......
...
It was already very late when Kotobuki Hikaru came out of the study.
The carpeted corridor was slightly dim, so quiet that only the faint sound of feet stepping on the carpet could be heard.
"Is Yili okay now?"
Qinbukiguang muttered subconsciously.
We had just parted for a short time after dinner, and I started to worry subconsciously.
I was worried that Yili would not be used to being in his own home, and whether he would be well taken care of.
What are you worrying about here...
Kotobuki Hikaru patted his somewhat heavy head.
Maybe it was just because I had said too much and listened too much just now that I became a little sentimental, so I missed her a little.
I didn't even know which room Yili was placed in.
While thinking this, Kotobuki Hikaru walked towards the stairs.
"I didn't expect that the young master would change so much after he left home. He also brought back such a cute girl. She looks like an adult now."
"That is to say, the young master is much calmer now, and he still looks troublesome like before..."
"Miss Goto is really lucky... If she can become a lover with Master Hikaru, her life will definitely change dramatically."
"It's good to be young..."
