"Kyono-san."

"What's wrong?"

"I like you."

Toru Watanabe remembers the scene that day very clearly.

The heading miscanthus sways slowly in the November autumn wind. Thin thin clouds linger in the blue sky.

The white breath exhaled seemed to be sucked away by the rising sun.

Everything is adsorbed with a strong autumn atmosphere, presenting an almost transparent world.

Standing in the miscanthus, Qingye Rin is as clear and beautiful as this autumn day.

"I know." Qingye Rin said.

"I like you." Toru Watanabe repeated again.

"How did you..." She seemed to understand something and did not continue.

The wind blew her hair slightly, and her eyes under her long eyelashes looked at Toru Watanabe quietly.

Just by looking at Rin Kiyono, Toru Watanabe's breath will be taken away from him.

The chirping of birds in the distant forest seemed to come from the most distant world.

"I like you and want to be with you."

"Why are we together?" Qingye Rin looked at Toru Watanabe calmly.

"You, me, Miki, Mai-senpai, and Aona-sensei." Watanabe Toru answered.

"Do you think this is reasonable?"

"unreasonable."

"Is it normal?"

"unusual."

"Would I do that?"

"I don't want to."

Qingye Rin stopped talking, her clear and beautiful eyes flashed with the sadness of falling in love with someone.

"I like you."

Watanabe Toru had no other choice but to completely and completely confess all his feelings.

"I've been thinking about you lately," he said. "My mind is full of you. Sometimes I feel happy, and sometimes I feel sad and want to cry. My thoughts are chaotic. The only thing that is clear is that I like you and cannot lose you."

Qingye Rin's eyes looked at the miscanthus on the roadside.

Once people have the happiness they want to pursue, they also have nights when they want to cry.

"I like you." Toru Watanabe once again said the only reason that supported him standing here.

"I like you too."

Rin Kiyono looked away from the miscanthus and fell on Toru Watanabe's face.

There was only two meters between them, but she felt the vastness and boundlessness of the river of destiny.

She is very clear and fully understands the responsibility that Toru Watanabe shoulders, which is as heavy a responsibility as the tallest mountain in the island country - Mount Fuji.

Not only is it heavy, but the responsibility is as reasonable and reasonable as the rivers returning to the sea and the sunset in the west, and must be borne.

Watanabe Toru looked at Kiyono Rin and felt her gentle and clear love.

Rin Kiyono loves Toru Watanabe as much as Toru Watanabe loves Rin Kiyono.

Now, Toru Watanabe is sure:

When he tossed and turned, thinking about her so much that he couldn't sleep, and felt sad and painful that the two of them could not be together, she did the same.

"Qingye-san, I like you."

Rin Kiyono looked at Toru Watanabe without saying a word.

"I like you so much that no matter what kind of person I am, honest or dishonest, single-minded, or carefree, I must let you be with me."

"I thought so too, so I wanted to snatch you away from the three of them." Qingye Rin stared into the distance and saw the vast sky.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" she asked with her back to Toru Watanabe.

These alone were not enough for her to convince herself.

'Watanabe-san, you must still have a way. Regardless of whether it's a lie or not, please give me a reason to be with you.'

"Kyono-san." Toru Watanabe's voice was filled with unconcealable loneliness.

It was the first time that Toru Watanabe, who always spoke with a smile, used such a sad tone, Rin Kiyono heard.

Her heart began to tremble, and she couldn't help but close her eyes, fearing that she would shed tears.

"I need you." Toru Watanabe's voice continued.

"I always thought that I was the one who could lead you out of loneliness and be the pillar that supported you in adhering to your ideals."

"But I'm not." Tetsuya Watanabe closed his eyes and his throat began to feel sore.

"You don't need me at all. You can live well alone. Loneliness is nothing to you. No one can shake your faith."

Rin Kiyono's frail body carries such a unique girl's heart, which is so powerful that it can even reach the farthest reaches of the universe.

"It's me who's afraid of being alone, and it's me who needs support."

"It's not that you need me, it's that I need you."

"Qingye-san, I like you."

Kiyono Rin turned around and opened his eyes.

"Did I tell you not to be with me?" Her voice was calm, and crystal tears slid down her beautiful cheeks that were just slightly sad.

Watanabe Tooru was so sad that he couldn't help himself. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

"I know." After a long time, he finally got used to the pain, "I know it's all my fault, and there is no reason for you to be with me, but..."

Watanabe Toru choked up again.

"All I can do now is plead with you."

"I beg you to temporarily forget all my faults. Even if you care about them in your heart, please wait until we are together before blaming me as much as you want."

"Qingye-san, I like you."

"I really want to... really want to... really want to be with you."

"Watanabe Tetsu wants to be with you."

"Qingye-san, I like you."

"Without you, my life can no longer go on."

"Qingye-san, I like you."

Rin Kiyono turned around and turned his back to Toru Watanabe. There was no sound, only his shoulders were shaking.

Looking up at the clouds in the sky, in the miscanthus wilderness of Sengokuhara, Toru Watanabe waited quietly for Rin Kiyono's answer.

Under the high dome, he felt as transparent as water and as light as feathers.

Without Rin Kiyono, Toru Watanabe would not be able to do it.

Finally, Qingye Rin gathered her emotions and turned around again. Even with the light behind her, her eyes were still shining like water.

"Okay." she said.

The rising temperature of the sun shone on Toru Watanabe's face.

The wind blew from Qingye Rin's side, smelling the fragrance on her body and the smell of miscanthus.

"I want to confirm..." Watanabe Toru's throat made a dry sound. He couldn't help but swallowed and cleared his throat.

"What did you just say?" he asked cautiously.

"I said," Qingye Rin took a deep breath, "Okay."

"Are we...together?" Toru Watanabe's voice gradually became louder.

Qingye Rin seemed cold and crossed her arms shyly, and nodded with a "hmm" sound.

Watanabe Toru looked at her blankly, frozen at this moment, his eyes unblinking.

Before Qingye Rin could react, he turned around and started running.

Under the watchful eye of Qingye Rin, he ran along the straight road among the miscanthus, shouting in the middle, scaring the cheerful wild birds in the morning into flying.

In the end, he turned several somersaults.

When he was almost out of sight, he ran back again.
