"... Just like that, their relationship has just begun.'
"It's done!"
When I saw these words appear on the computer screen, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Even though he managed to make it before the deadline, the manuscript that hadn't been proofread was still full of typos. However, when the time came, the publishing company and professional proofreaders would do it. His task had already been completed.
"But time really flies.”
He drank the coffee that had already turned cold and looked at the timer on the computer screen. It was clearly 5:44 on the screen, making people feel that work was simply the best tool to waste time. He even felt that he had left for a long time before he could finish his work. As a true professional, I could only look at the coffee cup in my hand and drink it to cheer myself up.
After a busy night of submitting the manuscript, he didn't even have time to sleep before he had to go to school. This kind of life was really miserable. However, there was nothing much to say. After all, he was often late with his manuscripts. When the time comes, the editorial department will send people to the school to arrest them. I believe that the editor will definitely do that without hesitation.
"Eat, eat…"
He stood up and stretched. All the bones in his body emitted crackling sounds like fried beans. After maintaining a posture for too long, I suddenly stood up and almost fell down.
Hey, hey, this won't do, right? She would faint in school, right? There was a physical education class today. It was not a good thing to faint during the physical education class.
I couldn't do anything about the weakness of my body. I could only turn on all the lights in the room to get some mental comfort.
However, looking at the empty and luxuriously decorated room, the aura of being alone made people feel even colder. The bone-chilling cold made people shiver uncontrollably. They subconsciously pulled on the clothes that were keeping them warm. It even gave people the illusion that he had caught a cold…Could he really have caught a cold?
I tightened my clothes and decided to find something to eat in the fridge in the kitchen.
The food cooked under the snow yesterday was indeed delicious. Although it didn't have the taste of an illusory family, it was definitely at the level of a one-star chef. So, after the two freeloaders left, I put the rest of the food in the fridge with the mentality that I didn't want to waste it. In any case, most of the things cooked under the snow could be reheated and eaten. There was no reason for them to not taste good when they were cold. This woman was as stubborn as she was.
I picked out a plate of fried rice that was glowing with a golden light from the dazzling array of leftovers and stuffed it into the microwave. I carried a can of coffee and walked to the French window tiredly.
According to the logic of the novel, it should be a sunny day outside. Unfortunately, the sky outside the window in real life was still gloomy, as if the main character in a comic had lost his parents. It didn't make people feel good at all. It was almost six o'clock, but there was no sunlight at all. Moreover, it was unlikely to appear anytime soon. The weather forecast said that it would be cloudy for the time being.
To be honest, I really hope that the heavens will consider my side. At least the weather will be sunny and my mood will be better.
"Ah…it's going to be another day without any good things.”
After hearing the sound of the microwave finishing up, I drank the coffee that had completely cooled down.
If possible, I really hope that my life is colorful. Although I know that I have to sacrifice the present for the sake of the future, if possible, I still want to live a happy life, right? Although he was a little too greedy.
If it was possible, who wouldn't want to spend the rest of their lives with a girl like that under the snow? Although her personality was a little troublesome, she was a true beauty and perfectionist. Unfortunately, he had to admit that the two of them were definitely not compatible. Offending a beauty when he returned to school to establish a normal social relationship was really a 'sunny' start.
The future is bright, but we still need to work hard. Just like how the flame of Communism had never been extinguished, even in the base camp of the capitalists, there were still soldiers of Communism who expressed their respect in their own way. Of course, the future was bright, and the twists and turns of the road could be imagined. If he could feel helpless in the face of such a small loneliness, then there was no need to mention doing something big.
Normal high school students might be disappointed, but I'm not one of them. The warrior named Loneliness would not be defeated by such weakness. What I had to face was the vaster darkness. How could I be sentimental here?
He patted his face hard to dispel the fatigue from staying up late. I took the fried rice out of the microwave and served it to the dining table.
To be honest, Housekeeping Under the Snow would definitely get full marks if I were to grade it. Even after reheating, the fragrance still made my eyes light up. He even had the illusion that if it was such a dish, he might be able to withstand the fatigue of the day.
However, thinking about the lessons that are coming up today, I feel that I might die in school today. This included math, English, sports, and club activities in the service department.
As the price to pay for lying to me under the snow, the first mission is for the two of us to complete together.
What sin have I committed…
Just as I clapped my hands and was about to say," I'm starting," three rhythmic knocks suddenly sounded from the door that should have been impossible to knock on. Then, after waiting for ten seconds, he launched another steady three-hit combo. It was so accurate and stable that it made people think of a person's image.
"Under the snow, right? The door wasn't locked, so he could just open the door and come in.”
I raised my voice to the people outside the door.
Then, almost in the next second, I heard the door being pulled open, followed by the sound of a person walking into the room. His steps were so steady that it was as if they had been measured with a ruler.
Just by listening to the footsteps, he could tell who it was. She didn't even have to wait for long before Snowfall, who was wearing a white stockings jacket and a black knitted sweater, came to the kitchen with a frown. When he saw the hot fried rice in front of me and the coffee beside me, his cold eyebrows twitched slightly.
"I wanted to remind you not to forget to report to the teacher, but it seems that there's no need for that now. It looks like you haven't slept all night. After drinking so many cans of coffee, aren't you afraid that you'll be in a daze during class?”
"But if I didn't work without sleeping for an entire night, then it wouldn't be a problem of being in a daze.”
I couldn't help but shiver at the thought of the editor's face.
"Is that so? In short, you just have to grasp it well.”
Under the Snow nodded.
"But for breakfast, I actually suggest you eat porridge or soup. That saves time and is easy to digest. Also, don't tell me you don't have any spare ingredients for breakfast and used them up yesterday? It's not a good habit to eat leftovers."
"What can we do? I didn't know that you could actually use all the ingredients. I'm the one who was really shocked.”Even those unpopular ingredients that were only worthy of being used in the refrigerator were used. Moreover, they were used just right. Who do you think is the culprit who made me eat leftovers?
"There's nothing I can do about it. Who asked me to be a genius?”
"There is no genius in this world who would boast like you.”
"In other words, he didn't refute the fact that I'm a genius.”
"Personally, I think that under the snow, you are much more skilled than me in terms of crooked reasoning. Because any shameless words could be treated as the correct truth.”
"Because it is the truth."
Under the snow, she wrapped her scarf around her neck, revealing a small face that was filled with a matter-of-fact expression.
This woman was completely finished, mentally.
"Moreover, this kind of thing is not something that I can learn on my own. You taught it to me yourself, right?”
"When did I teach you all this…"
"Isn't it just dinner time?"
"Does that count?"
"I have a strong learning ability. I have the corresponding confidence in this.”
"Please, can you use your confidence in the direction of benefiting mankind?”
"Who knows?"
……
Time flew by in this meaningless conversation. By the time I swallowed the entire plate of fried rice with difficulty, it was already 6:20 in the morning. He probably wouldn't be able to make it in time to report to Shizu-sensei Hiratsuka.
However, it did not matter. In any case, it would be something like suggestions and opinions on the Service Department. Since I'm not in my thirties yet, there shouldn't be a problem for me to be a little willful, right? Youth, love, dreams, I can have these things too, right? After all, I don't want anything to happen to my youth. At best, it would be as perfect as the novels.
I turned the key a few times and locked the door. I waved at the snow outside the elevator, blowing on my palms to warm myself. After indicating that there were no more problems on her side, the genius girl stretched out her finger and pressed the elevator button. Then, because of the cold air, she quickly retracted her fingertips into her sweater.
"The elevator hasn't been repaired yet?" I leaned over slightly. The needle on it was still the same '1'.
"It shouldn't be repaired yet, right? After all, only a day has passed."
Under the snow, she stomped her feet a little hard. It was unknown whether it was because she was angry or because of the cold.
"So it's only been a day…It feels like a long time has passed.”
"Did you use up all your brain capacity after staying up late? It's only your second day of school.”
"You're right. It's only the second day…Oh, the elevator is up.”
"Okay, let's go."
Both feet stepped into the elevator.
Just like that, their story had just begun.
