Lilo Tsurumi couldn't hold his hand and say something like, "I'm so sad that I can't be with you."

The next second, she would pull the door shut and shut him out.

But Akira Tsurumi did it.

He pulled her arm and said something with a rather depressed and lonely expression that made her feel a little distressed. Then, the teenager let go of her hand and stood there without moving.

It was as if he was waiting for something.

It was true that she felt a little distressed.

However, it didn't stop Crane from seeing that Lilu was about to leave but was abruptly interrupted by the youth. Thus, after she stepped out of the door,

She knew what he was waiting for. She had just stepped out of the door when the paper sliding door behind her slammed shut.

Then, she heard a very clear click. Akira Tsurumi couldn't wait to close the door and lock it.

Even if he was an otaku who treated his computer as his girlfriend,

Hugging his computer and hiding in his room was indeed his normal behavior since he came to Japan.

So, she could somewhat understand his eagerness to return to his personal space.

But just a second ago, he said, "I'm so sad that I can't be with my sister."

The next moment, he slammed the door on the back of her head.

Go!

Go!

Lock!

What the hell?

What's wrong with this person?

Tsuru was so angry that she almost laughed at Lilu's "flip-flopping like flipping a book" textbook demonstration. She was so angry that every step she took was loud and clear. The more she listened to the walking BGM, the angrier she became.

She stormed back to her room to take a shower. But when she took off her pants, she realized that her period had come.

Blood soaked the new underwear she wore for the first time.

She was so busy that she didn't notice it at all.

So, she got even angrier.

Her anger didn't subside even after she took a shower and washed her underwear.

So, she angrily threw herself on the soft pillow and quilt and slowly fell asleep with her eyes closed.

The next morning, as usual, she didn't want to get out of bed and actually slept until noon. Amidst Akira Tsurumi's thunderous banging on the door, she groggily got out of bed and opened the door to bid farewell to the youth.

"Dad and the guests are downstairs." The young man looked her up and down and said.

"Oh," the girl yawned sleepily.

"Then say goodbye to him for me."

… It could barely be considered a farewell?

Since she had gotten up, she couldn't ignore the sticky feeling between her legs.

When the conversation in the living room gradually disappeared, there was a soft but clear sound of the door closing, and the sound of footsteps quickly moving away.

She went to the toilet to change her sanitary napkin.

After doing this, the girl lay back down on the bed. She tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep.

At this time, she finally woke up and realized, "Ah, my brother went on a long trip and returned to living alone."

Although Akira Tsurumi had only been here for a few days, she felt that there was another person's daily necessities in the living room, kitchen, and even bathroom. Every day when she woke up, she met countless times in the house and occasionally exchanged a few words. In fact, after Akira Tsurumi moved in, she really felt that she had become quite talkative. Most of the time, she didn't need the other person's response, but because she knew that the other person was there, she unconsciously said a lot of nonsense. She often had to consider the other person's needs and feelings … and so on. After returning to living alone, she inevitably felt a little uncomfortable and lonely.

There was a very popular saying, "Living alone is addictive." Perhaps because she was still young, Lilo Tsurumi couldn't empathize with this at all. In fact, she felt that it was quite lonely and troublesome to be alone. Although it was still acceptable, it was always better to have more people!

She summed up her normal life after coming to Japan, and that was —

No mother to accompany me!

No father to accompany me!

No brother to accompany me!

Unfortunately, she had a mother who pursued art and would go abroad to participate in activities or work in seclusion, a father who was always super busy and super mysterious, and a younger brother who was infinitely closer to her father. Sometimes, Lilo Tsurumi couldn't help but feel that she was pitiful.

In the midst of boredom, she finally remembered that she had forgotten her cell phone on the bedside. After she lit up the screen, a notification about an unread message appeared on it. The time was the night before yesterday.

[Then, when I come back from my trip, do you want to come to Kanagawa to play?]

Sender (Note): Bubble Gum Fanatic

Of course, the girl didn't hesitate to agree.

Then, she entered into a monotonous and boring life.

Eat, sleep, draw, play games, browse forums, and send emails to friends (mainly Yue Ren).

Although she felt that the days were unbearable from the bottom of her heart, there were many ways to pass the time. Unknowingly, while she was secretly complaining, "It's so long," time had already passed by bit by bit.

During this time, People From Mukugaku asked her to play with the dance machine again. The girl's spirit was already eroded by the heating and perfect takeout service at home. She really didn't want to wear so much and jump around outside, so she decisively rejected the other party.

Hyuga · Current Speaker · Yue Ren immediately strongly condemned her: [If you stay at home any longer, you'll become a moldy mushroom!]

Lilo Tsurumi didn't care at all and replied: [Staying at home for three days won't make me moldy.]

And the fourth day of staying at home was the lively Christmas Eve.

In fact, when she went out last time, she had already seen a small Christmas tree in the window of some shops. There were many red and green flowers and golden bells hanging on it. There were also elk and Santa Claus stickers on the glass. Even the carpet had been replaced with a green background with red words.

The festive atmosphere had already been laid out quietly from the minute details.

Lilo Tsurumi didn't want to go out at all, because there was no one with her.

People From Mukugaku probably knew that her otaku cancer was acting up, so he didn't invite her to a holiday party at all. In fact, if he asked, she would definitely go.

But she couldn't blame him for not inviting her on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!

Coincidentally, perhaps everyone had their own plans, and other than him, no one else came to ask her to play.

Although she knew that Akira Tsurumi wouldn't be able to come back before the 25th, she muttered, "No one is spending Christmas with me." But in fact, when she was alone, the girl really and somewhat suddenly realized that this was indeed her "Christmas alone."

Yuji generally spent Christmas with his family. Although Cillang had a good relationship with her at school, they rarely contacted each other during the holidays. He probably preferred to sleep. Chotaro was undoubtedly a family member. Xiaohuang always had a lot of work to do during the holidays. Ikebukuro and Kanagawa were too far away to consider. Others weren't close enough to spend Christmas together. As for Jingo —

In fact, after they came back from Patio together last time, they didn't contact each other again.

They were in a state of almost cold war. He seemed to have turned a blind eye to the obvious contradiction between them, and rather unyieldingly gave her a lot of care.

Their interaction that day was so dull that Lilo Tsurumi even had a feeling of confusion. Actually, it didn't make any difference whether they broke up or not.

But until now, he hadn't sent her even a single email. Obviously, it was almost Christmas — so, there had to be a change.

Did she hurt him by stubbornly using her Adonis as an excuse? Sometimes, such a thought would appear in her mind, but it was just a thought.

In the evening, Lilo Tsurumi finished eating the takeout boxes and walked around the house. When she passed by the window, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a glimmer on a tree branch in the distance.

She focused and took a closer look.

… It was snow.

Tokyo's first snow of the year happened on Christmas Eve.

Wahhhhhh!

Damn it!

She really wanted to go out and play!

But, not only would it be strange for her to stand alone in a celebratory crowd, the main point was that she would definitely be given dog food by the couples on the street!!

No way!!!

Besides, it would be boring to play alone!

The girl bent down in frustration, placed her hands on her knees, and let out a sorrowful whimper.

Her listless posture was uncontrollable. She completely lost her fighting spirit and desire to struggle, and soon fell to the ground softly (Anyway, the floor in her house was super clean!).

She lazily rolled around, and then slowly stretched out her limbs to maintain a flat posture, thinking, I am a salted fish.

Not long after lying down, she felt very bored and couldn't help but roll again. And this roll seemed to open the door to a new world. The sufficient heating in the house made it so that she wouldn't feel cold even if she was lying on the ground with only a thin layer of clothing. The smooth and clean wooden floor was a different kind of refreshing feeling from a soft bed (?).

The girl seemed to have gotten a kick out of rolling this time, and she felt that it was very interesting and rolled again.

Roll, roll, roll one round.

Mm, roll one round again o (?)

o

So fun, one more round\\\ (???)/

Seems to have encountered an obstacle, trying to roll to avoid it?

(??*)?

Dodged it!

Then — Wahhh (.

Д.)

Ouch, it hurts ~ (

T ro T) σ

Lilo Tsurumi suddenly curled up and reached out to cover the back of her head. She pressed her palm on the area where she was hit to relieve some of the pain, but even so, she maintained this posture for a long time before she recovered.

A few minutes later, she slowly sat up with one hand on the back of her head and the other hand on the ground. She wanted to cry but had no tears to shed. She confirmed that she had hit something — the metal corner of the coffee table.

Fortunately, it wasn't sharp, so after she confirmed that her head wasn't bleeding, she silently stood up and left the living room.

After the pain, her first reaction was to be glad that Akira Tsurumi wasn't home … It was too embarrassing. She suddenly rolled on the ground and hit the furniture like a mystery. She would never tell anyone else about it. She would never let a second person know about it. She would just let it go with the wind.

The expressionless and abnormally calm girl quickly found other ways to pass the time and threw this little accident to the back of her mind.

The short hand on the clock slowly pointed to the top. As the night approached, the phone began to ring with notifications of incoming messages.

It was a holiday greeting from her friends.

[Marry.

Christmas ~ Eve.] From Genius Glasses (Note).

It was so concise and not at all thoughtful. It was obviously a group message.

[Did you have a good Christmas Eve?!

I prepared a great Christmas present for you. I'm looking forward to tomorrow ~] From My Little Brother (Note).

I'm super happy to receive your message!!!

Looking forward to the present, love you!

[Haaappy.

Christmas

Eve ☆!!!

Every year at this time of the year, I'm so busy!

Even though I've been working for more than ten hours, it seems like I'm still far from done … I really want to be lazy and spend Christmas Eve and Christmas with Little Lilu QAQ. But I've said it every year and it never came true. What a great regret!

After work, I'll bring a Christmas present and a New Year present to Little Lili!!

I hope you won't mind me for being late by then QAQ] From Xiaohuang (Note).

Since I'm doing high-intensity work, I have to pay more attention to my health. I don't mind being "late" at all, but it's better to send the present over by express delivery.

[Dang dang dang dang ~ I'll send you both Christmas Eve and Christmas blessings. I wish you a wonderful holiday!]

From Bubblegum Fanatic (Note).

Okay, I've received your blessings. I wish you a happy holiday too ~

[Marry.

Christmas

Eve！

With this Christmas Eve as the node, I hope you'll have a peaceful New Year too.]

From Blackie Tetsuya Angel (Note).

This is definitely not a group message!

A person like Blackie Senpai would definitely not send a group message!

[Marry ~ Christmas.

~ Little Princess Eve (Heart), did you have a good Christmas Eve?

If it's not enough, you can ask for more from me at any time.

I also wish you a happy Christmas tomorrow ~]

From Big Brother Angel (Note).

I'm happy at this moment!

Love you!

[Sis, happy holidays. I bought you something, but don't expect too much.]

From My Man (Note).

Don't expect anything. Even if I'm disappointed, I won't beat you up. (It's good for you, right?)

…

She read through the messages one by one, and the number of blessings she received was actually more than she expected.

Chotaro's message was super long and super sincere (full of the aura that it wasn't a group message); Wuyue Senpai's message, on the contrary, was more official; Masami, Katsura, Takashi, and many others' messages were more difficult to distinguish; and?

Cillang and the others obviously weren't the type of people who would send blessings … Wait, so Rinya Orihara was the type of person who would send a group message on Christmas Eve?

Lilo Tsurumi's inbox was filled to the brim. She read through each and every one of them and seriously replied to them all. She also sent a few blessings to those who didn't send her any messages.

When she was done, she glanced at the time displayed at the top of her screen. It was already two in the morning.

There were no messages from "Narcissus" in the messages, both long and short, with varying tones.

Lilo Tsurumi read through all the messages again.
