Chapter 17 Maki’s sweet wine
“Looks like a simple drink”
Maki Miyazawa looked at the sweet wine in his hand with some suspicion.
She felt that Sawayama Haruno was looking down on herself a little bit. Although she had never drank alcohol, she should still be able to drink even a small cup, right?
Besides, it doesn't smell like wine, but instead has a faint smell of vanilla and mango.
"You can taste it after you drink it."
Sawayama Haruno said unceremoniously: "It would be nice to have some for you to drink. Why don't you choose this and that?"
He was making a cocktail that suited him and had no time to worry about what Maki Miyazawa was thinking.
Besides, with the combined experience of my past and present lives, can I still make her a failure?
After eating the ice cream dessert floating on the top, the bottom was the flavor of the wine she wanted. When she made it before, the amount was also based on Miyazawa Maki's. It was impossible for Miyazawa Maki not to taste it, unless she There is a problem with the sense of taste.
"Is there a spoon?"
There was something to eat, so Maki Miyazawa didn't take Haruno Sawayama's "blame" to heart. After asking for a small silver spoon, she happily ran to the living room with the sweet wine and sat down to eat.
The weather in Tokyo in July can be said to be extremely hot. Even though the air conditioner in Haruno Sawayama's home is very powerful, he still gets irritated just by standing in a place where the air conditioner cannot reach him. The kitchen is naturally such a place.
Maki Miyazawa just watched the whole process in the kitchen. Although he didn't sweat, he more or less felt the difference in temperature. Now there is a glass of ice-sweet liqueur with mango ice cream floating in front of him. It would be any different It is difficult for people to resist this temptation.
"Eh-"
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Haruno Sawayama came out after mixing the wine, he saw Maki Miyazawa's little face wrinkled.
"It's freezing to the teeth. I should have known better not to eat such big pieces."
She looked a little annoyed, but quickly added: "It tastes okay, just like ice cream."
"If the ice cream you eat doesn't taste like ice cream, what else could it taste like?"
Haruno Sawayama sat down and took a sip of his bubbly cocktail. The irritating liquid entered his mouth, dispelling the feeling of summer heat. The comfort from his heart made him couldn't help but squint slightly. Eyes opened.
Second Life is really the way to enjoy it.
"What's your cup?"
Maki Miyazawa was digging into the ice cream with a small silver spoon while keeping his eye on Haruno Sawayama's drink with evil intentions.
It looks equally delicious, and it's still bubbling. Is it filled with soda water or cola?
"My cup has a higher alcohol content than yours. You can drink your own cup." Haruno Sawayama said angrily.
The drink he drank was indeed stronger than the one he gave Maki Miyazawa. The main reason was because he didn't pay attention to the appropriate proportions when mixing the drink. After all, he didn't use Coca-Cola when mixing this drink in his previous life. In addition, foreign takeout brands seem to have extremely subtle differences.
For ordinary people, this difference may not even be tasted, but for Haruno Sawayama, it is still easy to distinguish.
"I should switch to other cola next time, but there are too many sugar-free raw cola in the island country."
Haruno Sawayama felt his nose was itchy and couldn't help but rub it. However, as soon as he raised his hand, the phone rang with a colorful ring tone. Only a simple nickname - mother was displayed on the illuminated mobile phone screen.
Sawayama Haruno was startled for a moment, then immediately put down the wine, took the phone and walked towards his bedroom.
After entering the room and closing the door, he answered the phone without thinking.
"Hello, mother?"
After all, he was chatting with his family, so Sawayama Haruno's tone became much softer unconsciously.
He was reborn in this parallel world, which means that he was raised by his parents since he was a child. The family relationship will naturally be deeper than that of a time traveler. What's more, before he went to college and became independent, his family also gave him a lot of real assistance. .
Although they live separately now, one in Osaka and one in Tokyo, the feelings I owe you will not fade away at all.
It's just that his thoughts don't necessarily represent his mother's thoughts, because the other party is saying in a reproachful tone: "Why haven't you come back for so long?"
"Mom, it's not time for vacation yet."
Hearing what the other party said, Sawayama Haruno felt overwhelmed and quickly explained: "There is still some time before the next long vacation. I can't go back even if I want to."
"Did you come back from the last Golden Week?"
Hearing that Haruno Sawayama was still defending, his mother suddenly became furious.
The reason why she was so angry naturally had her own reasons. It was not really related to Haruno Sawayama not returning to his hometown for a long time, but because he was still dating Miyazawa Mana when he returned home last time.
It was also the golden week of the senior year of high school. Before leaving for Atami, Haruno Sawayama took Mana Miyazawa to stay in his hometown for one night.
Although it was only one night, Haruno Sawayama's mother was deeply impressed by the well-behaved girl, and she was even more proud of her son for finding a good wife at such a young age.
As a result, before the next opportunity to return to his hometown during the long vacation, Haruno Sawayama had already broken up with Mana Miyazawa, almost making his mother angry to death.
It was precisely because of this relationship that Sawayama Haruno did not dare to go back some time ago.
Of course, he said that he definitely couldn’t say that, so Haruno Sawayama had no choice but to lie: “I didn’t go back during the Golden Week last time because I wanted to help my seniors and tutors in the school. Didn’t I already say this? Already?"
"You have only been in school for a long time, how can you help?" Haruno Sawayama's mother revealed the truth without hesitation, and said angrily, "Are you a science major? How can you help others as a liberal arts major? Now you are exposed to general education, do you have professional knowledge? "
I do, I really do.
Sawayama Haruno did not dare to say anything, so he had to be scolded passively.
There was nothing I could do about it, my mother really liked Mana so much. When she first heard that they had broken up, she called her every day and sighed, which gave her a headache.
If he talks back now, it is very likely that his family will come to Tokyo to teach him a lesson.
"I'm telling you"
The mother on the other end of the phone didn't know exactly what Haruno Sawayama was thinking. After seeing his silence, she began to persuade him earnestly.
Anyway, the general meaning is that Haruno has now been admitted to Tokyo University, and the two elders no longer need to worry about their future. The only thing they worry about is the matter between him and Mana.
Sawayama Haruno's mother kept talking about this for a long time. When she felt a little tired and was about to stop, she heard other strange noises coming from Sawayama Haruno's side.
