Endless Silver Machine

The two of them rarely come to the neighboring town, and they have obviously gone on so many dates.

Since they started dating, how many times have they gone on dates... Luoluo recalled it, but they only left vague impressions, but could not remember the specific number of times. If you count from the beginning, you should be able to count them. But this is a rare date time, and it would be too shameful to use the present time to count the memories that have become the past.

"Luoluo, do you want to hold hands?"

The streets are filled with couples stalls or people traveling with their families, making it a lively scene everywhere.

Although the two of them are no longer at the age where they would get separated without holding hands in a crowded place, they would still do this in such a situation.

Aika took advantage of the situation and took Luoluo's hand, but instead it made Luoluo puff up her cheeks slightly.

"Ah... I was beaten first by my brother. Didn't I agree that I would take the lead today?"

"Once you get used to it...haha. Do you need me to let go and do it again now?"

"...Bad guy."

Although the expression on Luoluo's face was a little awkward, she still didn't let go of Aika's hand.

The surrounding area was not crowded. But after living in the silent forest for too long, Luoluo somewhat forgot about this noisy feeling.

They came to a coffee shop. The simple yet elegant appearance is particularly unique in this small town. This is probably the "interesting place" that Luoluo mentioned before setting off.

"Here we are, right here."

"A coffee shop."

Sure enough, this is where Luoluo wants to come to the neighboring town for a date today.

The two sat down on the side of the store near the floor-to-ceiling windows.

After placing orders respectively, Luoluo leaned back on his chair and looked out the window.

Classical music plays leisurely, and the inside and outside of the shop seem like two different worlds.

The world outside the store seen through the glass window is real, and the world of the two people inside the glass window is also real.

There is no contradiction between the two.

Aika's figure can be reflected in the corner of the eye and the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The sound of his gently shaking the spoon and the collision of the coffee cup was clear and sweet, and just sitting here gave me a sense of security with him.

Luoluo held the warm coffee cup in both hands and continued to look at the world outside the floor-to-ceiling window. I just don’t know whether she is admiring the fresh street scene or the figure reflected in the floor-to-ceiling windows.

It was like a dreamlike time to be able to enjoy the ordinary scenery and enjoy a date with my brother in a normal way.

What is this extremely cherished feeling born in my heart? It was obviously just something that I had experienced frequently before, but there was a slight bitterness that was hard-earned and I didn't want to let go.

It's like holding the coffee without sugar in your mouth, with sweetness floating outside and bitterness sinking inside.

What was it like before... before...

"Luoluo, what are you looking at? You're all starting to feel dazed."

Aika's voice stopped her from thinking anymore and brought her increasingly blurred consciousness back to reality.

Turning his head from the floor-to-ceiling window, Aika was holding his cheek and looking at him meaningfully.

Feeling embarrassed for a moment, she hurriedly picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, trying to cover her current expression with the cup.

Then she realized that this was just a cover-up, and she placed the coffee cup she was holding in both hands on the tray.

"It just suddenly feels like...life now is like a dream."

"Really? I feel the same way."

"Brother too?"

"Because I am so happy, so happy that I can't believe it. Luoluo will be my wife. This reality is too luxurious for me."

"Isn't it natural... You can spend every day like this with the person you like, and so do I..."

Aika's words made Luo Luo's cheeks become hot when he heard her. He put down the coffee cup and grabbed the corners of his clothes tightly under the table.

All the problems that had bothered her were now forgotten. Luoluo just wanted to cherish every minute of dating the person she liked.

…………

After coming out of the coffee shop, Luoluo took the initiative to hold Aika's hand.

"I want to reiterate that the leadership today is in my hands."

"I understand, my princess."

Aika responded patiently to Luoluo, and she walked around the street holding her hand. Sometimes it's a dessert shop, sometimes it's a clothing store, sometimes it's an open park... They visited every corner of this town.

For Lolo, this is an irreplaceable good time.

…………

The sky gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun filled the town.

The heat of the day disappeared like an ebbing tide, and it seemed that only Aika and Luoluo were left in the silent town.

The good times have come to an end.

"Brother, there is another place I want to go."

"Just tell me wherever you want to go. All my time belongs to you. As long as it's your wish, I will help you realize it even if it's something I can't do."

"How can the impossible be achieved..."

Luo Luo showed a faint smile.

It was a dreamy smile that seemed likely to disappear in the bubble at any time.

"I want to go...where you are."

The figures of the two people were reflected in the closed shop windows on the roadside.

Aika looked at Luo Luo quietly, and Luo Luo raised his head slightly and looked up at Aika.

The girl reflected in the glass display window is no longer the cute outfit that Aika put on for her during the date, but the ink-dyed wedding dress that she personally chose.

"Every day...every day since I was with my brother, I was happy. That was the happiness I had never experienced before."

With the huge Ferris wheel as the background, the afterglow gradually dimmed.

Aika listened quietly to Luoluo.

"No matter how painful and uncomfortable it is, as long as I think of my brother by my side, I feel that I can do anything... For me, who is weak, your presence is the most effective analgesic. With you The place we are in is the Garden of Eden...but it’s not enough to just go on like this, right?”

Luoluo raised his head. Although she had the usual smile on her lips, her eyes were filled with tears.

"If this time is really a dream, then I...have been deceiving my brother..."

The moment he opened his mouth to reveal the truth, Luo Luo's tears couldn't stop flowing down his cheeks.

"Pretend to be an obedient sister, pretend to be a lover worthy of my brother...pretend to be who I am, to realize this wish, to paralyze myself and escape from reality..."

But Luoluo did not move away from his gaze on Aika, licking his lips and telling him his wishes while choking.

"Do I...do I have the right to stay where you are..."

He promised that as long as it was his wish, even if it was something he couldn't do, he would help him realize it.

Only he can realize his wishes, even things he can't do will help him realize them.

Nothing can replace the significance of his existence to him.

"Maybe it's really just a dream..."

Aika, who had been listening to Luoluo's confession, finally spoke.

There was no regret or open-mindedness, he just murmured in a plain voice.

"I have said before that this kind of happiness is too luxurious for me. Even if this is just a dream, I am willing to give up everything in exchange for such a dream. It is best not to wake up for the rest of my life."

Aika reached out and lifted Luoluo's face. The expression on his face was similar to that of Luo Luo, but he endured it more thoroughly.

"But Luoluo is different from me, right? You are far stronger than me. So, even though I already knew that this period of time was just a dream, I didn't dare to say it to break it, but you said it for me."

At this moment, Luo Luo finally couldn't help but let go of her cry.

Regardless of whether this was a dream or not, nothing could make her feel more at ease than shedding tears in front of him.
