Unforgettable...
That unique white hair was as pure and flawless as snowflakes, and those deep blue eyes seemed to hold endless mysteries and stories...
Every time she recalled this scene, there was always an indescribable emotion in her heart.
Tokyo, Japan. This is a prosperous and bustling place, but for some people, it might hide deep longing and nostalgia.
In this busy city, a girl with long brown hair, wearing a pale white top and a red skirt, stood quietly in front of a dessert shop.
Her eyes were fixed on the various special desserts displayed in the shop, with an expression of confusion and contemplation in her eyes.
Maybe because the girl was too focused on the desserts in front of her, or maybe she was thinking about something else, she didn’t notice someone approaching at all.
At this moment, the shop owner saw the girl in a daze at the shop door. He walked over gently and called out with concern.
“Girl, what’s wrong?”
Hearing the shop owner’s voice, the girl seemed to wake up from a dream.
She looked up and saw the shop owner looking at her worriedly. A apologetic smile appeared on her face, and she said softly.
“Sorry, I got distracted.”
Seeing that the girl was okay, the shop owner relaxed his frown and spoke to the girl with a smile.
“It’s okay, but you should be more careful in the future! If someone really knocked you over, it would be troublesome.”
Faced with such thoughtful concern and reminder from the shop owner, the girl slightly lifted the corners of her lips and replied with a faint smile.
“Thank you for your concern, Uncle Manager. I will definitely be more careful in the future.”
Seeing the girl behaving well and sensibly, the shop owner waved his hand. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he asked with a bit of curiosity.
“I just saw you staring at the special daifuku in our shop. Do you like desserts?”
When she heard the word “daifuku.” an invisible light appeared in the girl’s eyes, as if she recalled some beautiful things.
A charming smile appeared on her face, and she replied softly, “Um... I really like them.”
Hearing this, the shop owner immediately showed a proud expression on his face and laughed heartily.
“Well, our desserts are truly the best! Let me tell you, there’s a young man with white hair and an eye patch who is a regular customer of ours. He comes here almost every day to buy our desserts!”
Hearing the shop owner’s explanation, the eyes of the girl, who had been somewhat dazed, suddenly lit up.
‘Could it really be him?’
The girl couldn’t help but think of the person in her memory, the one who once gave her warmth and sweetness.
But since that parting, the man seemed to have disappeared from the world, and no matter how hard she searched, there was no trace of him.
She came to Tokyo because she remembered he once said that one day he wanted to try all the desserts in Tokyo...
However, the shop owner did not notice the girl’s strangeness and thought she was embarrassed because she liked desserts but didn’t have money to buy them.
So, the considerate shop owner took a beautifully made daifuku from the stand and handed it to the girl with a smile.
“Girl, you look like a student, right? This daifuku is just a gift from Uncle, but remember to help me promote it more!”
The girl came back to her senses and realized that the shop owner had misunderstood her because of her daze.
She hurriedly opened her mouth, wanting to explain something.
“Uncle, I...”
Just when the girl was about to explain, a very familiar voice came from behind her.
“Uncle Tajima, business is good.”
A white-haired man wearing an eye patch was walking over with his hands in his pockets, looking very arrogant.
Hearing the man’s voice, the shop owner named Uncle Tajima saw the person coming and smiled.
“Oh, it’s Gojo. Are you here to buy desserts again today? Haha, I just introduced you to someone.”
“Huh? Introduced me?”
The approaching man was surprised.
Uncle Tajima felt helpless after hearing the man’s words.
“So, you call yourself Gojo, and people who don’t know you think you’re a bad guy.”
“Haha, I can’t stay here for a while, I don’t care about this, I’ve been looking forward to desserts for a long time, Uncle.”
Gojo Satoru laughed and said.
Uncle Tajima shook his head helplessly and went into the shop to skillfully fetch the desserts.
Satoru stood in front of the shop door, waiting with his hands casually in his pockets.
At the same time, the girl next to him became very nervous since she heard Satoru’s voice.
When the shop owner called out the other party’s name, the girl finally couldn’t hold back her inner emotions, and tears began to flow in her eyes.
‘Yes, it’s him! That very familiar voice and iconic self-proclamation.’
Asuna suddenly turned around, her eyes fixed on the white-haired man in front of her, wearing a black eye patch with his hands in his pockets.
Although his eyes were tightly covered, it didn’t affect Satoru at all.
As Asuna turned around, his gaze immediately shifted to her.
At this moment, Asuna could no longer contain her excitement and said with a bit of a sob.
“Long time no see, Satoru-kun...”
Seeing the teary-eyed girl in front of him, Satoru couldn’t help but recall every detail of his middle school days in his mind.

That day, the gloomy sky seemed to descend, and fine raindrops fell like ox hair, covering the entire city.
At that time, Satoru was in a very irritable mood, as if an unknown fire was burning in his heart.
So, he picked up an umbrella and decided to go out and buy some sweet snacks to soothe his wounded heart.
However, halfway there, he suddenly felt an evil aura that made him nauseous again.
“Tsk, what bad luck!” Satoru couldn’t help but curse, and the annoyance in his heart became stronger.
Then, he slowly shifted his gaze to a secluded alley.
Those deep blue eyes, like the sky, locked in that direction, as if wanting to see through the walls to the hidden secrets within.
A second later, Satoru’s figure instantly disappeared from the spot like a ghost, leaving only an umbrella lying quietly on the ground...
Meanwhile, Asuna was in deep despair.
There was no other reason than today she had a difficult conversation with her mother.
Her mother had high hopes for her to finish her studies as soon as possible and then take part in a marriage arranged by the family.
This sudden request hit Asuna’s heart like a bolt of lightning, causing her to fall into deep pain and helplessness. At that moment, she finally understood why, no matter how hard she fought, her mother never praised her with a single word.
