The bigger the house, the emptiness inside seems to become heavier.

After being separated from his friends, the smile on the boy's face was no longer the same as before, and his cold cheeks seemed like the wind blowing in autumn.

"Growing up..."

thump--!

Kotobuki Hikaru fell directly on the soft sofa, letting the touch like a beautiful girl's arms wrap around her.

Have you grown up now?

Growth is an elusive thing.

However, I can feel that I am different from before.

For the first time in my life, I have important friends.

A band was also formed, with new companions.

I always feel that maybe I am now getting closer to the back of Sister Tsumugi.

The maximum brightness of the mobile phone's screen is so dazzling that it makes people unable to open their eyes in a dark environment.

Through the gap between the golden hair, Kotobuki opened the communication on the phone.

In today's society, people still use the phone to call friends, but more often they use social accounts to contact each other.

Only guys who have never made friends will meet and exchange phone numbers.

Therefore, the young man's mobile phone address book only contains a few people.

Parents, sister, housekeeper.

Other than that, there is only "Goto Ichiri" who is in a separate group.

Looking at the few communications, Kotobuki Hikaru suddenly remembered what Hongxia said before.

"No matter what kind of conflict there is, we can just laugh it off. This is family."

This is too nonsense!

This sentence seemed like a joke to Kotobuki Hikaru.

However, thinking back to that day, when Yiji Xinge apologized to his sister Hongxia, he felt very, very envious...

Beep——!

By some strange coincidence, Kotobuki accidentally clicked on the address book number titled Father, and the phone number was immediately dialed.

You have to hang up quickly!

However, I don't know if there was a trace of luck in his heart, but the young man's finger stayed on the hangup button for a long time without pressing it.

After seven or eight beeps, he had given up hope.

"It's better to just hang up..."

Fingers that are heartbroken are ready to fall.

And just when the finger was about to touch the screen, the interface on the phone screen changed.

The noisy beeping stopped.

"..."

"..."

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone.

Kotobuki opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything.

Neither party hung up until the timer went from one digit to two digits.

It was as if the people on both sides of the phone were waiting for the "hello" from the other party.

"Why are you calling me back all of a sudden?"

All the pleasantries before the conversation were omitted, and a somewhat urgent, yet low and dignified voice came from the other party.

"Father..." The boy's usually confident voice suddenly weakened. "How are you doing at home recently?"

"The house is much cleaner without a bastard like you."

"..."

Speechless.

Kotobuki Hikaru suddenly found that he couldn't say anything.

In fact, there are many things that I want to say.

For example, I made my first friend here.

Also, a band has been formed and everyone is practicing hard...

And, I am very happy here.

some type of.

But the words were stuck in his throat, as if they were blocked, and he could only say nothing.

Finally, a voice came from the other party on the phone.

“Have you had enough of the band game?”

"..." Hearing such an understatement, Qinbukiguang felt angry.

The strange emotion in my heart just now was instantly taken over by sullenness.

"If you've had enough fun, come back to me quickly!"

Band game...

In the eyes of this guy, is everything he mustered up all his courage to do just a game?

Why can't you understand me more...

The inexplicable grievance suddenly burst out from under the deep layer of mud at this moment.

"I'm not just playing games!"

The boy's almost hysterical voice echoed back and forth in the cold villa.

Even the person on the phone fell silent, perhaps because he didn't expect Kotobuki Hikaru to have such a violent reaction.

"Are you serious? Or are you just trying to use this excuse to escape your responsibilities as the eldest son of Kotobuki!"

"I seriously want to be a rock musician, Dad!"

It was obviously a conversation between relatives, but honorifics were still used.

It feels very uncomfortable.

In Kotobuki's family, this is a matter of course.

I thought that after getting through the phone, Kotobuki Mitsuru would get the same apology as the one the Hoshige store manager said to Hongxia.

But the result was just a scolding, and the inexplicable quarrel started again, just like at home.

He just couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere, so he chose to leave home.

Incomprehensible.

"An old timer like you wouldn't understand!"

He used this reason to accuse.

"If you think you have grown up, show me the evidence instead of acting like a child here!"

beep--!

Unable to listen to the harsh sound, Kotobuki Mitsuru hung up the phone in the middle of the conversation.

"Obviously...I just haven't grown up yet..."

The young man who was still thinking about whether he had grown up just now collapsed on the sofa in grievance and said something that was contrary to what he had just thought.

......

The main family of Kotobuki family.

study.

The head of the Kotobuki family stared blankly at the hung up call. His personal mobile phone had not received a call for a long time, and he had never seen his son's phone number. As a result, he couldn't help but send another call on the phone. temper.

"I don't understand? I don't understand!"

The man with short blond hair put down his antique flip phone.

"The young master called to greet you after a long time, but you still lost your temper with him."

The butler accompanying the man expressed concern. "Why don't you have a good chat with the young master and pay more attention to him?"

The half-white-haired butler, who is about to enter old age, is used to seeing too many stories in this world.

Therefore, he cannot understand.

Why do some people treat the people they love more harshly than others?

"Soft concern will only make him continue to be a child."

"Is it really okay to continue to let Master Guang go on? As the only heir of the Kotobuki family, from a rational point of view, it will not be beneficial to the Kotobuki family to allow the young master to be so willful."

"You are too lenient, Saito."

The middle-aged man glanced.

"Sorry, I'm just a friendly reminder."

"I'm still in good health. That kid can just mess around as he pleases. If he's had enough, he'll come back naturally."

As for if it's not nonsense...

Then there is no need to worry about him.

"Besides, if your son can't do it, then just wait for your grandson." The man said domineeringly and indifferently.

It seems that he has already prepared to work hard to support this family until his hair turns gray.

The housekeeper looked at the head of the Kotobuki family who started to laugh inexplicably, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

These passages feel...a bit familiar.

"Your father said so before."

As a butler who has served Kotobuki-kun for decades, Saito reminded.

"?"

The head of the Kotobuki family raised his eyebrows.

Chapter 53 The growth of a guitarist

late at night.

Goto's house is located in a bedroom upstairs. In the quiet night, the sound of guitar comes from the music.

In Goto Kazuri's bedroom, which is so simple that she has no girlish vibe at all, in the closet, the increasingly familiar melody is repeated continuously, reaching her ears through the headphones that have accompanied her for several years.

In the narrow space, there is a girl practicing guitar with headphones.

Even though fatigue had already spread all over her body, and even the hand holding the pick was shaking a little, she still held on to her energy and continued practicing the melody that had already been engraved in her memory.

Because tomorrow is an important assessment, which will determine whether the band will get the opportunity to perform on stage as expected.

It even decided whether the band would end because of this...

And, will the dream of light end here?

so......

For the first time in Goto Kazuri's life, such determination emerged in his heart.

No matter what... you must work hard and pass tomorrow's assessment.

Let the light see, let everyone see, my true strength...
