During the school years, people often followed the crowd.
For example, after evening self-study, everyone left the classroom, but one person was still studying diligently at their seat with a rechargeable desk lamp. The teacher then told everyone about this as an inspirational story.
As a result, many students will imitate this diligent study behavior.
Or, to put it another way, guided by mainstream values, people will choose to do behaviors that are accepted.
At this moment, inside the Shohoku basketball gym, Sakuragi Hanamichi spontaneously offered to wipe the floor and clean the basketballs for the basketball team.
This is something that deserves praise.
Sakuragi Hanamichi was invited by Akagi Haruko to join the basketball team, so how could Akagi Haruko not have any reaction?
Haruko Akagi said with a smile, "Sakuragi-kun, you're amazing! I'm sure your brothers will be very happy to know that you helped clean the basketballs today."
Sakuragi Hanamichi scratched the back of his head, gave a goofy smile, and said, "I'm a newcomer to the basketball team, so it's only right that I do this kind of thing."
Yes, that's the kind of humble attitude!
Make sure she feels that you are a person who is serious about doing things, very humble, and not arrogant!
Haruko Akagi raised her little fist and said with a smile, "Then, Sakuragi-kun, good luck!"
That's right! Haruko Akagi only offered some praise, but didn't stay to keep Sakuragi company just because of his words.
She did hesitate for a moment, but in the end she still chose to go back!
But at this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi's face showed no emotion. He smiled and replied, "Yes, yes, I will definitely try my best and won't let Haruko down."
"Sakuragi-kun, I'll head back now~" Haruko Akagi said, turning to leave.
"Okay, okay, Haruko, be careful on your way home." Sakuragi Hanamichi didn't forget to give Akagi Haruko a concerned reminder.
"Yeah, Sakuragi-kun, you should head home early too."
Haruko Akagi turned around and smiled, then prepared to pull the doorknob.
Just then, Sakuragi Hanamichi asked urgently, "Oh dear, Haruko, I just joined the basketball team today, and I don't know where the cleaning tools like the mop and rag are. Haruko, do you know where these cleaning tools are?"
Upon hearing this, Haruko Akagi stopped and turned around, saying, "I know, come on, I'll take you to get it."
Sakuragi Hanamichi smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Haruko. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Haruko Akagi waved her hand and said, "It's no trouble at all, it's fine."
Inside the basketball court is a small storage room containing tools such as mops, brooms, rags, and buckets.
Sakuragi Hanamichi took one of each item, his hands full, and walked back with Akagi Haruko with a proud and confident air.
Haruko Akagi chuckled as she watched Sakuragi Hanamichi grab the mop and broom, looking like he was heading to battle with a gun, and said, "Sakuragi-kun, you look like you're going to war!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi laughed awkwardly, "Um, to be honest, I've never done housework before. I've never swept or mopped the floor."
"Huh?" Haruko Akagi was quite surprised. "So this is the first time you've done something like this?"
Sakuragi Hanamichi nodded.
Haruko Akagi exclaimed in surprise, "I never imagined that joining the basketball team would bring about such a big change in you."
Sakuragi Hanamichi nodded and said, "Yes, after joining the basketball team today, I really wanted to contribute to the team, to help the team, and to help the team in every way possible."
"Sakuragi, you're really amazing! I knew I hadn't misjudged you." Haruko Akagi was overjoyed.
However, at this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi awkwardly said, "Um, Haruko, there's something I'd like to ask you."
Haruko Akagi said generously, "Oh, Sakuragi, you don't need to be so polite. Just ask me anything."
Sakuragi Hanamichi hesitated for a moment, glanced at the tools in his hand, and then looked up and said, "Since this is my first time doing something like this, I'd like to ask, should I mop the floor first or sweep it first? Also, how should I wipe the basketball? I'm worried that I might do something wrong and ruin the basketball, which would not only fail to help the basketball team but also cause them trouble."
The cunning Sakuragi Hanamichi has made his move!
This reason was perfectly legitimate, making it impossible for Haruko Akagi to refuse!
Haruko Akagi didn't hesitate at all. She smiled sweetly and said, "Then I'll teach you!"
After saying that, Haruko Akagi took the broom from Hanamichi Sakuragi and said, "Go get another broom. Let's sweep first, then mop, and finally wipe the basketball."
“Mmm,” Sakuragi Hanamichi nodded immediately. “Okay, thank you, Haruko.”
Under the moonlight, the campus was quiet.
Inside the basketball court, brightly lit, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Akagi Haruko were sweeping the floor, chatting and laughing.
"Oh dear, Haruko, I'm so sorry to have kept you from going home," Sakuragi Hanamichi said apologetically.
Haruko Akagi moved the broom in her hand and said with a smile, "It's okay, the two of us can finish this quickly, it's just that wiping the basketball will take a little longer."
Sakuragi Hanamichi hurriedly said, "After we sweep and mop the floor, Haruko, you can teach me how to wipe the basketballs. I'll stay behind to wipe the basketballs by myself. Haruko, you don't need to help me wipe all the basketballs, otherwise it will be too late."
Haruko Akagi looked at the large basket filled with basketballs; there were dozens of them!
If you wipe them one by one, it will really take a long time.
Haruko Akagi nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll leave it to Sakuragi-kun."
Sakuragi Hanamichi quickly waved his hand and said, "No trouble at all, no trouble at all."
Haruko Akagi bent over and swept the floor diligently.
Sakuragi Hanamichi followed behind, sweeping the floor casually, but his eyes were fixed on Akagi Haruko.
In his eyes, Haruko Akagi is now like a virtuous wife and loving mother, staying at home and doing housework with him.
She is principled, opinionated, positive, optimistic, has dreams, and is surrounded by friends.
She is beautiful and lovely, with a graceful figure and a sweet voice.
She doesn't have any male best friends, nor has she ever been in a relationship; she's a well-behaved and law-abiding girl.
She is about to become my woman!
A situation where a man and a woman are alone together does not necessarily require any physical or behavioral events to occur.
Finding fulfillment on a spiritual level is also a form of enjoyment.
At this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi was immersed in this enjoyment.
But this feeling... it's a bit intoxicating!
As you think about it, your primal impulses and desires become uncontrollable!
I just wanted to do something.
The clouds yearn for her clothes, the flowers for her face, and beneath the cherry blossoms, I long for the sun.
