Junior Sister-in-Law's Confession 1 (Part 1)
"It's just a pre-order; we're still struggling."
The Little Senior Sister, playing the piano, asked, "Would you like to collaborate with me, Shuya?"
"So suddenly?"
"Hmm... just a spur-of-the-moment decision?"
"I'll think about it some more. I haven't been feeling very motivated lately."
"Let's wait until Shuya- kun is motivated before we talk about it."
The Little Senior Sister nodded.
After a while, Shuya, "Little Senior Sister... can I come to your place?"
"OK."
Shuya walked to his Little Senior Sister's side, knelt on the ground, leaned his upper body against her, and buried his head in her knees.
Her face was smooth and fragrant.
"..."
The piano music slowed down, Little Senior Sister continued playing the music with her left hand while her right hand lightly rested on Shuya's hair.
Gently combing his hair, stroke by stroke.
"Little Senior Sister..."
Shuya's indistinct murmurs could be faintly heard.
"I'm here."
The Little Senior Sister felt Shuya's arms wrap around her legs, but she did not resist.
She simply continued, gently stroking Shuya's head.
I'm right here.
Chapter 371, Part 353: Little Senior Sister's Confession 1 (Part 1)
"I am here..."
The Little Senior Sister's voice was warm, illuminating Shuya's entire being.
"Good girl, good girl."
She murmured to herself as if soothing a child.
The Little Senior Sister patted Shuya's head, put her right hand back on the piano keys, and began to play normally again.
A delicate piano melody began.
Shuya's cheek rubbed against his Little Senior Sister's smooth thigh, his nose filled with her intoxicating fragrance.
The Little Senior Sister hummed a casual tune, and every move she made had a powerful healing effect on Shuya.
He looked so weak, a sight that even Haruno and Tsuruko had never seen before.
Little Senior Sister has this kind of aura that makes Shuya her presence.
He hugged his Little Senior Sister's legs, rested his head on her knees, and stared blankly for a while before reluctantly getting up.
"You got a reply?"
The Little Senior Sister asked.
"Fine."
Shuya sat down next to her, watching his Little Senior Sister's fingers dance across the black and white piano keys.
"Shuya- kun, do you have any plans to make a comeback recently?"
The Little Senior Sister distracted him by chatting with him.
"No, but Little Senior Sister 'd like to collaborate, it's not out of the question."
Shuya asked, "I heard that Little Senior Sister has plans to hold a concert?"
"Yes, it's still in the planning stages."
"If you decide, Little Senior Sister, you absolutely must let me help you."
Shuya the Way.
"Sure, but I'll be angry if you don't come as a guest."
The Little Senior Sister puffed out her cheeks, trying to look fierce.
That's truly terrifying.
Shuya laughed.
He seemed to have never actually seen his Little Senior Sister angry before.
She has such a wonderful personality.
After listening to music for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Shuya went to take a shower.
He's not leaving tonight.
But don't get me wrong, he and his Little Senior Sister have a purely platonic relationship; they would never sleep together.
After Shuya and changed into a bathrobe, his Little Senior Sister saw that his hair was still wet and couldn't help but go up to dry it for him.
Then my Little Senior Sister went to take a shower too.
She took a long bath, and when she came out, Shuya was already asleep on the sofa.
The Little Senior Sister glanced at him, then sat down at the table and continued composing songs.
She enjoys working late at night and often doesn't go to sleep until four or five in the morning.
Shuya has told her many times, but she just can't change this habit.
However, Shuya here today seems to remind her of her junior brother's warning.
Around 1:00 AM, the Little Senior Sister put down her pen, sat on the floor next to Shuya, and stared blankly at his sleeping face.
"Your brows are furrowed again."
The Little Senior Sister whispered, reaching out to stroke Shuya's brow.
In the quiet space, her thoughts gradually drifted away.
I remember when I was very young, my mother held me and explained the meaning of my name to me.
Seisen.
"Qing" means that I hope my life will be free from any filth or pollution, that I will grow up healthy and pure, and live out my life in a clear and clean way.
The spring symbolizes my hope that I, like Gen-sen, will be full of vitality, bringing joy, energy, and inspiration to others.
It's a beautiful name.
I truly believe that.
But I feel I've let this name down.
Ever since I started kindergarten, I've felt that I'm not a particularly outgoing or cheerful child.
I'm terrified of meeting strangers; I've taken "purity" to the extreme, and I don't know where I've lost "spring" (a metaphor for inner peace/renewal).
I prefer to stay in my own little world.
Even after graduating from kindergarten, I never changed this habit. Instead, I preferred to stay in my own world and isolate myself from the outside world.
The outside world is scary.
I don't want to talk to anyone.
Leave me alone.
These negative thoughts swirl in my mind every day.
Only reading or studying can bring me peace of mind.
Even after I started primary school, my situation did not improve.
I clearly remember that in the early grades of elementary school, for some reason, those naughty boys always liked to bully me.
Luckily, a female classmate came to my aid, otherwise I think I would have developed androphobia.
The days passed uneventfully, one after another.
At a banquet, I met a distant relative of mine, Ms. Ayako Ishikawa.
She is a famous musician.
My mother talked to her for a long time and finally decided to let me try learning music.
As I grew up, I realized that my mother didn't actually care whether I achieved good grades or not; she just wanted to cultivate my character through this.
At the time, I was still quite naive and thought my mother was expecting something, so I studied music very hard.
Ms. Ayako Ishikawa praised my talent to my mother in surprise, and my mother happily patted my head and smiled broadly.
Looking back now, that moment was probably the moment I truly became interested in music.
My initial reason for learning music wasn't because I "liked it," but because "it would make my mom happy."
A reason so ordinary it's almost vulgar.
If the fans heard this reason, they might be disappointed...
Of course, that was just the beginning of the idea of continuing to study music in the future. The decision to embark on this path was truly because "I like it."
Time flies when you're fully immersed in learning music.
I'm making rapid progress in music, but socially...
Not to brag, but the situation has actually worsened.
After I moved up to the upper grades of elementary school, the boys stopped bullying me, but they also stopped talking to me. Every time I spoke to them, they would blush and look very angry.
That's terrifying. (crying)
What's worse, this time it was a female classmate who spoke ill of me behind my back.
But then male classmates would always speak up for me, which was really strange.
So what are these people really thinking...?
Overall, school life was quite peaceful.
Aside from not having any friends.
But as Ayako Ishikawa once said, music is our good friend.
Thinking about it this way, in a sense I'm not alone; on the contrary, I have many wonderful friends.
If you want new sheet music, you have to pay to buy it.
... Wait, perhaps I've realized something terrible.
If I give money to my classmates, will they become my friends?
I excitedly told my parents about this major discovery, and they laughed loudly.
In conclusion, the world is indeed perplexingly complex.
At that time, I thought my life would continue to be like this, full of ups and downs.
Life's trajectory will probably be like this:
Study music diligently, grow up, get into a music university, and perhaps become a somewhat famous musician.
Then she will meet a man, and because of her naivety, she will be hurt by love, and will no longer trust anyone, thus ending up alone.
