When I got home, noon greeted me as usual.

Unlike usual, there was a smile on my face at noon.The eyes are sparkling and bright, and the smile is soft and gentle.Slightly flushed cheeks revealed the mood at noon.

"Welcome home, Zhou."

"I'm in a really good mood."

I'm glad you're in a good mood at noon, but I have no idea why you're in such a good mood.It's usually noon when you smile and greet me just when you come back, but I've never been in the mood like today.

I can only be confused because I don't know the reason, but in the middle of the day, I smile more strongly whether I notice the confusion around me or not.

"... it looks like Zhou really didn't notice all day today."

"What happened?"

"I don't remember any days at all, so I wonder... today is Zhou's birthday?"

Zhou suddenly shouted "Ah" to a slightly stunned voice.

"Zhou Kun already.... Happy birthday, Zhou"

"... I completely forgot, because it's about me, I don't care."

It is a strange story that the person noticed it after being told at noon, but I was completely unconscious because I was out of my head.

Last year I didn't even know my birthday at noon, and I seem to have completely forgotten how many times I have to use my head to get used to my unfamiliar part-time work in the past few weeks, my daily routine, my jogging, and my rehearsal.

In the first place, for Zhou, a birthday is a milestone, but it is not very conscious, and I don't have to go out of my way to celebrate, it was just a stance.It's probably because of that.

When I was at home, my parents celebrated, but I didn't realize it since I started living alone, and that's why I'm still here.

"It doesn't matter.For me, Zhou is grateful for the day he was born.Without Zhou, I couldn't truly believe and love people. "

While laughing bitterly about what Zhou had completely forgotten, he gently took his hands around in the middle of the day.

"Thanks to Zhou, I was able to know that love is definitely there.Happiness comes to me from the bottom of my heart.Zhou was born, and I am very grateful. "

Unlike when we met, eyes that lit up warm and soft light looked around us.

Your tangled hands are warm.It conveyed a calm yet pleasant warmth, as if the heat around the noon were staying in my hand.

"Thank you for being born and for meeting me."

I found my cheeks burning with a voice and a smile that expressed the feeling that I was really happy.

I know that heartfelt gratitude and blessings make my body so hot.It's not something I hate, but it's something that feels different and fluffy when I get caught in the heat. It's the first time I've known it since I met you in the middle of the day.

With so many thoughts, you'll be happy around.

"... thank you for thinking so much and celebrating."

I don't know how to convey this heat and emotion, and when I say thank you while following a little bit, the noon laughs.

"I have prepared a delicate meal today, so please enjoy it.And before dinner... there are two things I have to apologize for. "

Yeah?

Do you have to apologize?and tilted his neck, and his eyes slightly casually fell down in the middle of the day.

"I think Zhou realized that I was sneaking around.I'm sorry I made you nervous. "

"Ah, that's... well, I can see from what I just saw.I didn't think noon would be bad for me, so I was worried I might have done something. "

"I don't think Zhou will do anything to me.This is just because I wasn't very good at hiding things, and it made me nervous... I'm sorry I hid things from you. "

Probably because I had prepared it secretly for my birthday to surprise Zhou, I thought it was such an attitude.In the middle of the day, there was not much to hide around, and there was a sense of guilt.

It was a cute concealment, and I didn't feel like blaming it because I was doing it for my surroundings.

"I don't care.... and the other one? "

"Well... it seems that if I was preparing my birthday in the back, you'd be careful not to say anything on that day for the surprise.If it were true, we should all be celebrating at school today.For my sake, Zhou was interrupting the blessing he should receive today..... "

"Oh, is that so...."

After all, trees and thousands of children know their birthdays, and they are quite naughty people, so friends' birthdays are a celebration type.That's why I lost consciousness of my birthday when I didn't say anything.

I didn't say anything today because I was cooperating in the middle of the day, and perhaps today's after-school play was invited as a foothold.

Though they murmur a little, they know better than anyone that the sound is soft.

I'm sorry. I'm worried about what happened at noon, and I gently slap my head in the middle of the day, which tends to lean.

"Hmm, to be honest, I don't think I have anything to do with the date or the place or telling myself.Well, as for the date, the person has forgotten all about the business and must be celebrated today, right?Looks like they've been thinking about me. "

"But"

"Maybe, but I think they think the happiest thing for me is to have a celebration at noon, and that's why I've been partnering and hiding it."

Their cooperation at noon is the result of their attempts to celebrate their circumference.

Even if you don't get a congratulatory speech on the day, I don't care about the perimeter.I realize that they are celebrating the perimeter.

"I know I'm so blessed by my friends, I think that's enough to celebrate.We don't have to celebrate directly, and we don't measure friendship by whether or not we're heard. "

There are different ways to celebrate depending on the person, and if this is what they think it is, it would be good to have it around.

I don't remember being able to judge by words and things alone, and I didn't build such a thin relationship.Their feelings were enough.

Still in the middle of the day, still slightly, Zhou gently strokes the head of the noon with a bitter smile and gently peeks into his face.

"Besides, I'm going to be screwed tomorrow... and today, noon will be all alone for me.It's going to be a lot of questions tomorrow, so I can slow you down, right? "

"... yes"

At the end, she laughed and told her to tear it apart, laughing as if she didn't even think about it in the middle of the day, and she nodded her face around her chest.
