162 162 Umehara Umeka 5

Reminds me that I've already had a shower at the hotel.

I was too temperamental and completely oblivious to that.

The water boat was empty.

If it had boiled, I wouldn't have come in.

"Phew..."

Take a shower and take it out of your head.

I set it in warm water and bathed it with the intention of cooling my head.

"Hey."

Suddenly I heard a voice and got angry.

When I twisted the shower plug, I replied.

"Mr. Ume?

"Yes."

Apparently, there's Mr. Ume across the door.

I sat in the bathroom and asked.

"What's up?

"Thought I'd apologize."

"What?

It's a strange feeling.

This one is naked, and there's a beautiful college student beyond the door.

Whether you're sitting or standing, I don't know that.

The voice emitted from Mr. Ume echoes.

"That I made fun of you."

"Oh... I knew you were making fun of me"

"No, I meant it"

Silence.

The sound of the ventilator going around in the bathroom sounded strangely loud.

"But I was drunk. And I want you to excuse me."

"Really?"

"Disillusioned?

"I won't, nothing... something happened?

I lifted my wet forehead up, and I kept my word.

"It's forbidden to do anything private, so you don't have to tell me."

"You banned me."

And after I said it, I found Mr. Ume breathing.

"Therefore I will take it upon myself. Because that's not against the rules."

"Should I block my ears?

"You just have to be on your own"

I didn't block my ears. [M]

Not wearing clothes is terribly delicate.

If it's true, I wanted to get rid of Ume properly.

"I broke up with my lover"

Ume's confession started with that word.

Ume's lover said she was younger.

It was the egg of an actor I met as soon as I debuted as a novelist.

An unsold actor who didn't go to college and belonged to a small office.

He said he was aiming and incisive in his relationship to enhance each other as creators.

"But I sold it first"

They say the distortion came from it.

Somewhere the actor's boyfriend became masochistic and began to flaunt himself.

Every time I heard such negative words spit out of him, Ms. Ume felt like she was being blamed.

"But I liked him... so I couldn't break up"

The decisive thing happened recently, he said.

When the debut was being considered for a movie, my boyfriend, who found out about it, said something amazing.

"Ask them to let me out."

If it were words from ambition, you could have poked.

But my boyfriend went on even further.

"If you're a high school student, I can do it."

I don't know what the intent was to say that.

For Ume, the characters are her own children.

Filmed, and that could be another piece.

But I wanted the actor who plays me to be the one who loves the children with me without a shudder.

Ume is going to be ridiculous to say no and decides to keep in touch with her boyfriend without saying anything.

He returned to his parents' house on a determined day and went to Nishien Town, where he set the stage for his debut.

That's when she met me. [M]

I thought I'd say something. [M]

In the end, however, it remained silent.

It is forbidden to step on private property.

"Well, that's why I don't feel comfortable returning texts from young people either."

Sometimes it was time to write important new ones.

I see why you didn't reply to my email. [M]

I'm surprised.

Ume said in a refreshing tone somewhere.

"He's here for today's signing... and you're going to apologize to me. I'm sorry."

"... it"

"You don't have to say anything. Anyway, because young people won't be able to say what they care about."

"That sounds terrible. It's true."

Laughing in self-derision, I said.

Ume continued the conversation.

"It's a small role, but he said he's got a job. And they said they wanted to put it back."

My boyfriend who came to the signing.

I guess I said it while giving away a book she wrote that I lost touch with.

"But my feelings did not shake. I loved him so much, I couldn't shake my heart at all, even though he had honestly apologized"

"You don't like it anymore."

"It's not like a broken heart... but I kind of miss you so much"

Ume tries not to sound sentimental and has a bright voice.

That came from the door.

I said after I spit out a chunk of air.

He said I was the one who gave him the role of distraction.

"... it was too early for a young man."

"I'm a minor."

Thank you. And Mr. Ume left in front of the door with a word of thanks.

I twisted the shower stopper again and washed my body over time. [M]

Go outside and wipe your body with the clean bath towel that was provided.

I wore the clothes I had been wearing again.

Back in the living room, Mr. Ume was lying on the couch.

With regular breathing, I found myself asleep.

You cried so badly, the tissue is unleashed on the tabletop without creation.

"Ume......"

You won't even be asleep yet.

On my knees, I whispered in Ume's ear.

"Please sleep in the bedroom"

"Mmm."

And when I woke up asleep, Ume stared at me.

"Young man, have you decided to stay?

"I will. I'll borrow your couch."

"Use it as you please"

In a slow motion, Mr. Ume stood up when he was caught on my shoulder.

Then he disappeared into his bedroom without a glance at me.

It's still early to go to bed, but I've been in Tokyo all day. Tired.

Let's get up early tomorrow and go back to the hotel.

When I lay my body on the couch, I set the alarm on my phone.

Close your eyes. I fell asleep shortly after thinking.
