Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

"What was that just now?"

A pair of big eyes flickered at Kato Yusuke, Ogihara Sayu's words were full of excitement.

"This is the second floor! You jumped up with a 'boom--'. Could it be that Yusuke is a superman?"

As he spoke, his body twisted and twisted restlessly.

"Don't move." Kato Yusuke patted her on the head and said, "If you move again, you will be ignored."

Her wet long hair was wrapped in a large white towel, and Kato Yusuke was wiping her with both hands.

The girl's black hair, which was almost brown, poured down from the top of her head like a waterfall, hanging down on her shoulders, with silky smoothness on it, like a layer of gauze.

"All right."

Kato Yusuke said lightly, and took the towel off her head, the hair inside was half dry.

"that's it."

"Thank you~"

Sayu said sweetly, then shook her head from side to side, the evening wind blew her hair, fluttering gently in front of that bright moon-like face.

Seeing this, Kato Yusuke got up and closed the doors and windows, then went to the kitchen, picked up the tray placed on the counter, walked to Sayu and sat down.

"Take your medicine."

He took out a few white pills from the aluminum foil and handed them to Sayu.

The little face who just took a bath was flushed, Ogihara Sayu knelt on the quilt with her calf out, wearing blue pajamas, exuding a good smell of shampoo.

"what is this?"

She pointed to the thing in Kato Yusuke's hand and asked, her voice a little muffled.

"Cold medicine and vitamins."

Kato Yu introduced concisely, looked her in the eyes and said, "Go to rest early after taking the medicine, so that the cold will be better."

"Eh~~~, but Yusuke hasn't answered the question yet."

Ogihara Sayu pouted and said a little childishly.

Kato Yusuke didn't answer, just looked at her so calmly, his dark eyes like a deep ancient well, making Sayu calm down all of a sudden.

"Eat or not?"

"……eat."

Sayu agreed gloomily, raised his hand to get the medicine, and looked very unwilling.

Seeing this, the corners of Kato Yusuke's mouth twitched imperceptibly.

The girl's fingers were slender and long, like the tips of new bamboo shoots after the rain.

"Um……"

The fingertips stayed on the top of the palm for a few seconds, Ogihara Sayu retracted her hand thoughtfully, and facing the questioning gaze of Kato Yusuke, she put her index finger to her mouth and turned her head to look at him.

"I have to eat it anyway, why don't Yusuke feed me... it hurts!"

Sayu hugged her head and said in pain.

"As a patient, you should be somewhat self-conscious."

Kato Yusuke retracted his fingers and said lightly.

"If you've had enough trouble, take your medicine as soon as possible."

"Ugh..."

A circle of red marks appeared on the snow-white forehead, and tears rolled in his eyes. Sayu was both aggrieved and sad, grabbed the medicine from Kato Yusuke and threw it into his mouth, and drank it with water.

"That's it!"

She put the cup heavily on the tray, then buried her face in the quilt, ignoring Kato Yusuke in anger, and her body twitched.

Kato Yusuke didn't mind either. He calmly packed his things and looked at Sayu who was still hiding under the quilt. After thinking for a while, he reached out and touched her exposed little head, and said gently.

"You did a great job, a good boy."

The movement in the quilt stopped for a while, then quieted down, and after a few seconds, some awkward voices came from inside.

"They are not children..."

Sayu said.

"Yes, you are not."

While speaking, Kato Yusuke stood up.

"Have a good rest.

"

The sound of dong dong footsteps sounded in the room, and the sound seemed to be heading outside?

Sayu secretly pulled down the quilt, and saw Kato Yusuke with a schoolbag in his hand, not knowing where to go.

"Wait a moment--!"

She sat up anxiously.

"where are you going……!?"

Kato Yusuke paused, turned around, and raised the schoolbag in her hand to her.

"I'm reading in the bathroom, call me if you have anything."

"Eh...?" Sayu couldn't help but be taken aback, "Wouldn't it be better to stay here if you were reading?"

Kato Yusuke shook his head: "That will affect your rest."

"...for this?"

"Um."

Saying that, he looked at Ogihara Sayu with thoughtful eyes.

"Are you thinking of something strange?"

Hearing Kato Yusuke's words, Sayu gently shook his head in denial, and then said.

"It's good to be here."

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't worry about me, I can fall asleep even with the light on." Sayu Ogihara let out a long sigh and looked at Yusuke Kato: "Let's say, I would feel more at ease with Yusuke around. "

"So please, please always be by my side..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, her ears were red and hot, and her courage left her body like a cocoon, but even so, she still did not look away, looking at Kato Yusuke firmly.

"...Is it necessary to use honorifics for this kind of thing?"

Kato Yusuke was a little speechless, but after hesitating for a while, he finally said.

"...I don't care if I can't fall asleep later."

This is agreed.

The girl's face immediately burst into a gorgeous smile, like a peach blossom in full bloom, she looked at Kato Yusuke with a frown and said in response.

“Good~~”

"Then wait a minute." Saying that, Kato Yusuke bent down, pulled out a small lamp from the cabinet in the corridor, stood up, and walked towards the living room, turning off the light in the middle.

The room suddenly fell into darkness.

He gropingly walked to Sayu and sat down, fixed the lamp on the low table, and turned on the switch.

The lamp immediately gave off a soft yellow glow.

"At least it will be better."

Then he took out the textbook from the schoolbag and put it on the table, and then asked Sayu, "Will it be dazzling?"

Sayu gently shook his head: "Not at all."

"That's good."

Kato Yusuke nodded and motioned Ogihara Sayu with his eyes to go to sleep, while he flipped through the book.

Under the dim light, Kato Yusuke crouched on the table with a focused and serious expression.

The mechanical pencil in his hand writes and draws on the notebook from time to time, as if recording something.

Ogihara Sayu was lying under the quilt and quietly watching this scene, the expression on his face kept changing, as if he was hesitating about something.

Time ticked by, and after an unknown amount of time, Ogihara Sayu finally made up his mind.

She quietly stretched out one hand from the quilt, grabbed Kato Yusuke's left hand hanging from her knee with her right hand, and then interlocked with her backhand.

There was a ripple on the calm lake.

Kato Yusuke made a move, ready to pull out.

"A chirp..."

A small voice came from beside him.

After a moment of silence, Kato Yusuke let out a long sigh.

"...the next time is not an example."

Then read the book.
