"Buzz~"
Sitting on the plane, the big condor leaned against the window, leaning on the table and writing furiously. He wore headphones and listened to nothing outside the window. He seemed to be copying something in front of a book.
"Here."
A white hand stretched out from beside her and handed her a bottle of water.
"Thanks."
He took the water, unscrewed the cap and took a big sip.
"Well... I've learned this in the first year of high school now." Nana Hashimoto, who was sitting next to her, was wearing a mask and stretched her head to take a look at what the Great Condor wrote.
"Phew, my head is so big."
The great condor scratched its head irritably.
"Have you decided which university to go to?"
"Well, I'm just a freshman in high school, let's take it one step at a time."
"Well... you can't have both, Taka." Nanami Hashimoto, who knew that work and study couldn't have both, reminded her.
"I don't want to give up until I'm sure."
"Come on, girl." She left a word of encouragement and opened her book. Unlike the Great Condor, she was reading a novel instead of a learning textbook.
Early in the morning, the two of them got on the plane back to Asahikawa. During the few holidays, they had to go back to spend time with their families. In addition to the centralized management last year, it was almost two years since they had seen their families.
"Speaking of which, in previous years, they have told us where the anniversary live event will be held. It seems that they haven't told us yet this year."
The Great Condor played with the pen holder, spinning it on his fingertips, and suddenly thought about the anniversary concert.
"I can't seem to find a venue."
"ah?"
"Well, I heard from my manager that something went wrong and I couldn't make an appointment at the venue. It may be because of the increase in the repertoire. It may have to be postponed." Nana Hashimoto replied while reading a book intently.
"I understand, Nogizaka is going to be cold. It hurts!"
As soon as she finished the first half of her sentence, Hashimoto Nanami's knife landed on her head.
"Just kidding..."
Curling their lips, the two continued to do their own things.
Japan is a small country. It only took an hour and a half to fly back from Tokyo to Asahikawa. It can be said that we arrived in the blink of an eye.
"Wow...whoosh, what a nostalgic cold wind."
Because Asahikawa is a small city, passenger planes are naturally inferior to those of large passenger planes. For small planes, you have to open the door and go down the connecting stairs, and then enter the terminal. When we got out of the plane, we were hit by a strong wind from Hokkaido. You can't taste the wind like a razor blade in Tokyo.
"Go quickly, go quickly."
Squinting her eyes, Hashimoto Nanami pushed the big condor from behind.
"I know, I know, really, don't you miss this familiar air?"
The two of them crossed their shoulders and trotted toward the terminal with their scanty luggage. After passing the security check with their passports, the two came to the crowded hall. In time for the New Year, there were especially many people going home.
The great condor stretched out its head to look for the person to pick her up. It had been agreed before that her parents and younger brother would come to pick her up together. After looking for a long time, I didn't see any familiar figure. Just when the Great Condor was about to call her mother, Hashimoto Nana next to her touched her.
"Over there."
Looking in the direction that Hashimoto Nana pointed, sure enough, a man and a woman, with two little boys, were standing next to the flower bed. If you didn't look carefully, you would have been blocked by the leaves. But besides them, there were two people nearby, a woman and a student. They seemed to have come together, standing together, talking and laughing.
"Then, should I leave first? Call us."
"Why are we walking? Let's go together." Hashimoto Nanami jogged two steps to keep up with the pace of the big condor, "Those are my mother and my brother."
"Eh?" The Great Condor glanced at the little boy, then at Hashimoto Nanami, "No, you guys look nothing alike, and I didn't know that my mother and aunt knew each other."
"Do siblings look alike... Then your brother looks very different from you. They have known each other before, I think it was... last May?"
"May...how did we know this..."
The two walked side by side.
"That will make the documentary go on sale, and invite the mothers of the participating members to the scene on Mother's Day. They knew each other at that time. You went to Cannes at that time and didn't attend, but your aunt came."
"Oh oh oh, yes, there is something like this. Dad! Mom!"
With that said, the two walked up to them, and the big condor shouted impatiently.
With just two syllables, Oishen Xiongya and Ye Xin could tell that the person shouting was their daughter. Looking for the source of the sound, they saw the great condor with short hair flying over.
The big condor flew into Ye Xin's arms with one swoop, and her mother's soft embrace was irreplaceable.
"Oh...slow down, you are as careless as a boy."
Ye Xin gently rubbed the hair of her daughter in her arms.
"Hello Aunt Hashimoto, hello Hashimoto-san."
After a brief hug, the Great Condor greeted Nana Hashimoto's mother and brother politely. He was used to calling them 'Nanamin', but suddenly calling them 'Hashimoto-san' was a bit strange.
"Hello."
Hashimoto's mother responded with a smile, while looking up and down at the big condor, wondering what she was looking at.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Hashimoto Nanami also greeted the Okami family.
"You two boys, did you miss me?"
He walked between Ogami Ryoya and Ogami Ryota, raised his hands to meet their faces, and pinched their soft cheeks hard.
"...thought about it."
Having his face ravaged by his sister really made his face full of 'happiness'.
"How's it going? Are you doing well in your studies?" On the other side, Nanami Hashimoto also began to ask about her brother's study situation.
"Well, that's all."
"No progress at all." As he said this, Nana Hashimoto patted his younger brother's head, and the sound could be heard by people nearby.
"..."
Hashimoto Kazuya looked helpless as he thought about why he didn't give himself face in front of outsiders.
The two brothers, Okami Ryoya, looked at Hashimoto Kazuya, who had been hit on the head. It happened that Hashimoto Kazuya also looked at them, and saw the same helpless look in each other's eyes.
Sure enough, the sisters in every family are the same.
