The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

"this......"

In the room, looking at the dark thing in front of him, Akimoto Manatsu squinted his eyes for a long time to identify it, and then finally made a guess, and said in a somewhat uncertain tone: "This is...chocolate?"

"Um."

Nishino Nanase looked away with embarrassment, lowered his head and whispered: "Although I have done it before, but now I picked it up again and found that there are many steps that I am not very familiar with, so I made it like this -

—”

"Because I remember everyone said that your cooking skills are very good, Manatsu, and I wanted to ask you to help guide me. That's why I suddenly asked you to come in alone just now. It was a bit abrupt, I'm sorry -"

That’s how it turns out…

Akimoto Manatsu felt relieved. He originally thought it was related to the recent selection, but he was still a little uneasy. It turned out that he wanted to help himself——

The girl quickly expressed that there was nothing abrupt about it, but immediately she couldn't help but feel a little confused, and asked cautiously: "Um... Na-chan, don't you care about the selection?"

"What selection thing?"

Nishino Nanase didn't react for a moment.

"It's just...it's the fact that I suddenly became the God of Fortune and pushed you out of your original position as the God of Fortune..."

Akimoto Manatsu's voice became softer and softer as he spoke, and his heart, which had already heaved a sigh of relief, could not help but raise his voice again with these words. He quickly bowed loudly and said, "I'm very sorry for making you so sad, Na-chan! Maybe I'll tell you.

There will be some disbelief. In fact, I didn’t expect that I would be selected for this position all of a sudden. I’m really sorry..."

Nishino Nanase was stunned for a moment, then realized what the other party meant, and couldn't help but fell silent.

One second, two seconds, three seconds, still no response.

After hearing no answer for a long time, the already nervous mood became even more uneasy. Akimoto Manatsu couldn't help but raised his head and looked, and was suddenly stunned.

The girl was seen in a daze, with an unprecedented thoughtfulness on her face.

This kind of expression is so rare that Akimoto Manatsu thought she had an illusion. The cute girl in front of her seemed to have matured several years in an instant, which made people feel a little strange.

"Na-chan..."

Akimoto Manatsu subconsciously shouted softly.

"Ah...it's okay——"

The girl who was awakened by this sound was stunned, then she smiled softly and shook her head gently. Then she pondered for a moment, looked at the other person and smiled and said: "I just suddenly thought of something and felt a little emotional, and Manatsu you

It’s irrelevant.”

"What emotion?"

Akimoto Manatsu asked curiously.

"Well..."

Nishino Nanase tilted his head and thought for a while, the deep thoughts just now appeared on his face again, and sighed in a low voice: "Nana, I'm thinking, if I were the old me, if I were the immature me before, what would happen to me?

For this kind of thing, I might really blame you Manatsu for this kind of thing, right?"

Akimoto Manatsu was stunned.

"But not anymore."

Nishino Nanase smiled shyly and comforted her, put down the chocolate in his hand, and his soft voice was full of meaningful breath, which made people particularly concerned: "The me I am now is no longer the Nishino I used to be.

Nanase. Nana, of course I know this.

In fact, the matter has nothing to do with you, Manatsu, and you should not be blamed in any way. If I really do that, I will look down on myself, because I cannot accept the reality and will only find a scapegoat.

Weak behavior with consequences——"

"Na-chan..."

Akimoto Manatsu stared blankly at the girl in front of him, feeling that the other person seemed to be exuding an aura that he had never seen before. Although he was still the soft and cute Na-chan in his impression, but in an invisible place, it seemed that

Earth-shaking changes are already taking place.

How do I put it? Becoming more...sunny?

No, it’s not sunshine. The girl silently objected in her heart.

It is firm, as if the hesitation and confusion in the heart have been dissipated, and the heart is full of motivation. Only in this way, those who keep their eyes on the target in the sky and stride forward can be as accepting of what happens to themselves and of the general world as they are now.

He can face some unspeakable emotions calmly and express them calmly.

What happened?

Akimoto Manatsu just felt a little confused.

...

...

Nishinoya a few days ago.

"That is to say...Nana, Baiyun-san and I have actually known each other a long time ago?"

After listening to his mother's narration, Nishino Nanase murmured subconsciously, with a look of surprise still in his eyes. He could only feel that his heart was ups and downs, and he could not calm down for a long time.

"That's right."

Nishino's mother said something, and then slowly said: "This can be regarded as fate. However, it seems that like you, the agent named Baiyunshan doesn't remember this past event."

"That's it..."

Nishino Nanase nodded thoughtfully.

Nishino's mother glanced at her daughter, obviously knowing deep down what she was thinking, and reminded her: "But mother advises you, it's better not to tell him about this."

"Why?"

Nishino Nanase was stunned immediately.

Nishino's mother didn't speak, she just pursed her lips, took a deep look at her daughter, and then said solemnly: "Tell mom honestly, Nana... do you like that agent?"

"Eh? Ah? I——"

Faced with this extremely direct speech, Nishino Nanase's cheeks suddenly turned red. He hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a word. He could only clasp his hands on his thighs and bow his head deeply.

well--

Seeing her daughter's reaction, even though she didn't answer, Nishino's mother understood what was going on and couldn't help but sigh silently in her heart.

She turned back and glanced at her husband and son. The two of them silently left and went upstairs. They also took the dog away. Suddenly, only the two of them were left in the empty living room.

"Generally speaking, since you like Nana, then no matter what, mom and I should support you."

After a long time, Nishino's mother spoke again.

"Really?"

Nishino Nanase suddenly raised his head in surprise, but within two seconds of this surprise, he was instantly poured cold water on her.

"——But this time it's different."

"Why?"

Nishino Nanase's eyes widened in grievance.

"The reason...the reason is very complicated."

Thinking of the rumor about liking men, Nishino's mother's face froze, she coughed twice, hesitated for a while, but still didn't have the courage to tell her daughter about it directly, but said resolutely: "Anyway, you'd better give up comparing.

Okay, let’s not say that you are still an idol, and he is a manager, how big the impact is the difference in status. Let me ask you one thing, how many members are there in Nogizaka46 where you are now?"

Nishino Nanase was startled for a moment: "Including Nana and I, there will be more than thirty people in total."

"Relationships require time to get along. There are more than 30 people, let's not forget about the others. Just talking about the identity of an idol, with so many people, how can you guarantee that he can spend enough time with you?"

Nishino's mother frowned and said: "And it seems that this agent is not an ordinary agent. With his status and talent, his future will definitely be more than this. With you, an ordinary little idol, the scenery he sees will definitely be

Very different."

"Different scenery means there is no common language. You are just a little idol in the team, neither high nor low. Why do people favor you?"

Perhaps because she was particularly concerned about her daughter's future, Nishino's mother didn't care about her careful wording at this time. She just wanted to make her daughter give up. Her words were so straightforward that they even sounded harsh.

But the harsh sound is extremely real.

Nishino Nanase was silent after listening, but his face gradually turned a little pale, and he bit his lip without saying a word.

Looking at her daughter's appearance, Nishino's mother knew that she had understood what she wanted to express. A trace of unbearability flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly approached her and patted her on the back, preparing to comfort her.

But before she could speak, she saw the pale girl murmuring in a low voice.

"It's okay..."

"What?"

Nishino's mother was stunned for a moment.

"I said, it's okay..."

Nishino Nanase took a deep breath. The pale face caused by the frank and true words looked a little distressing, but his eyes were full of determination: "I know, Nana, I am just a person now.

He is just an ordinary little idol. His grades are not bad, but they cannot be said to be very good. The only god of good fortune who deserves a few words of praise is no longer there. But——"

When the voice came here, there was a pause. The girl straightened up slightly. Her thin body seemed to be filled with unprecedented strength, which was hard to ignore: "But, I can work hard!"

"Work hard to change, work hard to grow! Nana, I know that I still have many shortcomings. Whether it is myself as an idol or others, there are many things that make people dissatisfied. However, I want to keep up with him,

I want to stand with him and see the same scenery!"

"I want to grow step by step to the point where no one can ignore it! Selection, blessing, and even...ter! One day, there will be one day, whether it is Nanase Nishino as an idol, or someone other than an idol

Nishino Nanase can make people satisfied. And when that day comes, mom, I will definitely have the qualifications and courage to tell him——"

"——About the fact that I like him!"

Nishino Nanase said firmly.

Nishino's mother stared blankly at her daughter's determined expression, unable to speak for a long time.

She thought her words could sting the other person and make them give up, but she forgot one common but very important thing, that is, her daughter actually has a soft character on the outside but strong on the inside.

Beneath the soft and cute appearance and voice is a proud and competitive heart.

Faced with thorns, the soft girl will not shy away from giving in like other people. Instead, she will face the difficulties and break off the vines of the thorns. Even if her hands are full of blood and her body is bruised, she will grit her teeth and weave them into a knot.

Wear the crown on your head with your head held high and your chest raised to prove your pride.

After a long time, there was a sigh.

"...Then, mom is waiting for the day when Nana, named Ace, will grow up to be something that no one can ignore, and bring me good news——"
