Chapter 6 6. Snow Appreciation Date in Hot Springs
It got dark very quickly that day, and the sun fell into the ravine in the mountains inadvertently.

As the dusk went away, the stars all ran out.

Mu Cuntuo told her: This is Lyra, and there is Andromeda.

The sky is extremely blue, as if the Pacific Ocean at 5000 meters has been turned upside down.The wind stopped for a long time.

"An idol who needs to express his love to his fans..."

Looking at the brightest star Vega in the night sky, a smile as if from another world appeared on Ai Hoshino's face.

"How can I do it?"

When we got back to the hotel, it was already [-]:[-] in the evening, the lights in the store were yellowish, and there were many people.

Looking back, there was just snow falling outside the door. The snow was not heavy, but in one night, it was probably enough to cover the footprints of the day.

The two changed their shoes at the entrance first.

"...Aqiu!"

"I'm sure I'm going to catch a cold."

"Well... you're definitely coming too soon!"

"It's also thanks to you."

"Hey, just this once!"

After a simple dinner, they ordered another plate of peanuts, half a plate of orchid beans, half a plate of grapes, half a plate of green grapes, and a bottle of hand-made orange juice.

"Do you want a Coke?"

"Forget it," Hoshino Ai said, "I don't really like drinking carbonated drinks."

"it is good."

Returning to the room with food, they hung the half-wet clothes by the fire to dry.

The firewood was less than a third burned, and bright red sparks would emerge from it from time to time.

After closing the windows, the cold wind desperately tried to penetrate into the house like a wild beast.

Except for the murmur of the wind and the crackling of the furnace wall, all was silent.

At this time, the sound of grunting when the grapes are crushed is very clear.

"Are you going to take a bath?" Ai Hoshino also hung the scarf next to the fireplace wall.

Takumi Makimura, who was sitting cross-legged on the tatami mat, took a sip of orange juice: "I'll go later."

"As soon as possible," Hoshino Ai said, "Be careful if you really catch a cold...Aqiu!"

The burning firewood suddenly crackled, and Mucuntuo stared at her, and she showed a cute smile: "I'll go first!"

After speaking, he left with a white bath towel between his hands.

There was no one else in the house, and Takumi took off his shirt.

He did a hundred squats and eighty push-ups before heading to the shower.

When the sit-ups reached No.70 two, the door was pushed open with a bang.

"Makimura-kun, if it's later..." Ai Hoshino, who had just brought him to the door, noticed the half-naked Takuma Makimura, "You, what are you doing?"

"Exercise to strengthen physical fitness." Mu Cuntuo said, and did another sit-up.

"Do it so late?"

"Do it every day."

"So..." She walked over with a playful smile, "But should I say it or not, I have a good figure."

"Thank you." Mu Cuntuo kept moving his waist, "It's the most beautiful compliment I've ever heard."

"is it?"

"no doubt."

After doing the sit-ups, Takumura let out a deep breath.

When he was concentrating, he carefully looked at Hoshino Ai who had come in for a while.

She wrapped her long hair in a towel, with only a few strands of blue-purple sideburns dangling from it.

The bath towel covered her chest from her knees to her chest. The chest was high and the grooves were relatively obvious.

He politely looked away, Hoshino Ai glanced up at him as if sensing his turning his head, and then smiled lightly.

"The bath will be closed later."

"Go now." Mu Cuntuo replied to her.

There are no more than three people in the open-air bath, probably because they came too late, Makimura Taku thought.

He took off his clothes and got into the hot spring. While feeling the warmth from the pool, he leaned on the smooth sauna stone and looked up at the moon.

When it snows, the clouds also seem to increase.

There are not many stars left on the top of the mountain, only the bright moonlight is still bright, and the moon shadow is like a street lamp.

After coming up from the hot spring, he dried his body with a towel and changed into the cotton shorts provided by the hotel.

After returning to the room, Ai Hoshino had already blown his hair and asked him if he could read "The Great Gatsby".

"Of course no problem." Makimura Taku said.

He took out the book and handed it over, and Ai Hoshino began to read carefully according to the Japanese translation he wrote next to the text.

"It's a story of love's disillusionment.

"Because in any era and any country, there will always be people who always hold the dream of love and sacrifice everything for it, although they are few and far between..."

Silent snow blows outside the window.

Before the lights went out, Mucuntuo went out to brush his teeth and wash his face.

When he came back, he saw Ai Hoshino had fallen asleep lying on the table.

The snoring was faint, and The Great Gatsby was pressed against her face.

He gently flattened the other person's body, covered her with a quilt, and fell asleep on his side on the other side.

When I woke up the next day, the moon shadow was replaced by the warm sun, and the snow had stopped at some point.

He put on his clothes, ran back and forth for ten kilometers along the long road that was not easy to accumulate snow, and then took a shower to dry off his sweat.

At around nine o'clock, Ai Hoshino finally woke up, and Mucuntuo brought her breakfast:

Two pieces of toast with blueberry sauce, a bottle of pure milk from a well-known origin, two bananas, and half an apple sliced ​​with a knife.

"Thank you." Ai Hoshino was a little surprised.

"It's nothing." Makimura Taku continued to read the book.

After breakfast, Hoshino Ai proposed to go out to enjoy the snow, Mucun Taku nodded, closed the book, and they changed into winter clothes and set off.

On this day, the sun was not as strong as yesterday, and the temperature dropped slightly.

"Ha~"

"It's still November."

"But it's more winter than winter!" She looked very happy as she looked at the breath of white air she had just exhaled.

Makimura Taku looked at the white-headed cedar tree: "It probably snowed all night."

"Why don't you continue during the day?"

"How cold it must be."

"who cares!"

Hoshino Ai, who was wearing gloves, squatted down, picked up a puff of snow with both hands, then stood up abruptly and sprinkled it vigorously into the sky.

"Throughly, thoroughly, let's have a super big snow!"

They walked in the snow, as if they walked into a Claude Monet's oil painting.

All you can see are unforgettable special scenery:
Thick snow covered the roof, and the ten-meter-high beech tree looked like a huge white flower in full bloom.

The clouds are wispy, the golden sun shines on the dilapidated wooden bridge, the lonely tree stump, and the smoke from cooking in the distance slowly rises.

Looking at the unhurried figures and the motionless red mailbox, Takumi Mumura completely relaxed his mind and body.

It seemed that before he knew it, the purpose of his long journey had been achieved.

This feeling will be clearer if the weather is better and there is a warm breeze blowing by.

At noon, they walked into the shop mentioned in the travel guide and experienced hand-made soba together.

In the afternoon, they set off from the hot spring hotel again, took a cheap bus, and went to Strawberry Village to eat "Echigo Hime".

"Oh~ delicious!" Hoshino Ai sincerely praised when she was in Strawberry Village.

Makimura Takuya nodded: "It's really good, no one would not like to eat this, right?"

"Thanks to your strategy!"

"Thanks to the uncle who sold me the travel guide."

"Too!"

Turning back to the hot spring hotel, they got off the car ahead of time. At six o'clock, the moonlight was white and desolate.

"I'm very happy today." Under the moonlight, Ai Hoshino's figure melted into the night.

"Me too." Mu Cuntuo slowly followed behind her.

The houses in the distance are like dots, and the desert is a beautiful Klein blue.

"Where should I go tomorrow?"

"Fly a kite, go skiing, watch elk."

"not bad."

"There are many more."

"Play it all!"

She shouted happily, and her slim figure circled and spun around in the night.

At this moment, even the moonlight paled in comparison.

 Gentle date.

  Thank you all for your votes.
