Chapter 443: First Love Girlfriend

On Sunday morning, Miyazaki Ryui personally drove from his residence in Chuo-ku to the Tokyo train station in Chiyoda-ku to pick up someone.

His heart was filled with a bit of mixed feelings. Not only was that person from his hometown in Aomori Prefecture, but she was also his first girlfriend from his high school days.

Miyazaki Ryui was a thirty year old man. As for his first girlfriend from his high school days, she was also the same age as him. A man was a flower at thirty, and a woman was tofu dregs at thirty.

The two hadn’t met for so many years, he still had some expectations in his heart, after all, it belonged to his hometown. Old love rekindled and what not, even he himself does not believe that there will be things.

Besides, a high school romance could be said to be both innocent and unintelligent. In any case, not only had they been good, but they had done it.

Matsui Natsuki, carrying a large double-shouldered bag, pulling a suitcase in each of her right and left hands, and a bag on her chest, flowed out of the platform with the crowd after getting off the train from Aomori Prefecture to Tokyo Metropolis.

She stopped for a moment, let go of the suitcase with both hands, and from inside the bag hanging above her neck, she fished out her cell phone, and then dialed Miyazaki Ryui’s number.

Miyazaki Ryui answered the phone, his right hand attached to the right ear side said: “You stand still. In your surroundings, are there any references that can be recognized at a glance? By the way, how are you dressed?”

“I’m not moving. I was right at the exit of the train station, next to a newsstand. I was dressed plainly, with a light blue jersey on top and a long skirt underneath.” Natsuki Matsui looked left and right before looking down at what she was wearing.

Miyazaki Ryui didn’t hang up the phone, and while walking fast with his feet, he used his eyes to is start looking for his target and said, “You mustn’t move. Otherwise, I won’t be able to find you well.”

“I’ll listen to you, just stand still. Since we graduated from high school, we haven’t seen each other for about ten years! That means it’s been ten or so years since we broke up.

I remember it clearly, that day was when you got your acceptance letter from Waseda University. Then you dumped me.

You stayed in Tokyo the whole time, so you never went back to your hometown, right? You should have grown changed?” Matsui Natsuki honestly stood still and said.

“What are you doing bringing up the past?” Miyazaki Ryui didn’t want to mention his not-so-honorable romantic black history said.

“I’m sorry.” Matsui Natsuki apologized instead.

“You didn’t apologize to me, it was me who apologized to you in the first place. At that time, I was really too ignorant and youthful.

I originally thought that if I got into a prestigious university, it would be smooth sailing from now on, and I would be able to enter a big company and live a good life. In fact, reality is always full of variables and drama.”

Miyazaki Ryui couldn’t help but recall a bit of his past inside his mind. Life was not the same as what he had designed at that initial time.

After he graduated from Waseda University, he just entered a medium-sized securities firm. Within two years, the company went bankrupt in the Asian financial crisis that occurred in 1997.

As a result, he lost his job. The road to re-employment has not been very smooth. If he hadn’t met Masayoshi Kishimoto, who was out for a walk, he would have hanged himself on a cherry tree in Ueno Park.

Matsui Natsuki didn’t blame him at all, “At that time, I was very sad. When I worked and grew up, I could understand your choice.

You didn’t want to spend the rest of your life in your hometown, Aomori Prefecture, living a simple and ordinary life like our fathers and grandfathers. You were bent on the prosperity and bustle of Tokyo.”

“So many years have passed. Have you been doing well?” Not wanting to dwell on the past, Miyazaki Ryui began to try to change the subject and said.

“Not doing well. If I were doing well, I wouldn’t have come to Tokyo to cause you trouble. It’s not like you don’t know that Aomori Prefecture is mainly an agriculture-oriented economy.

How many of today’s young people are willing to work in agriculture? A lot of young people are leaving to work in Tokyo.

Since the Asian financial turmoil in 1997, the industry I work in has not been doing well. Especially this year, it’s gotten harder and harder.

You, on the other hand, are getting better. I’ve heard from your mom that you went to work in Seoul, Korea, and then in San Francisco, USA. Now that you’re back in Tokyo, you’re already working inside a big hand company.” Natsuki Matsui said bluntly.

Miyazaki Ryui didn’t have the slightest intention of wanting to blame his mother. It was natural for a mother to want her children to be good.

Not to mention now, even more than ten years ago, he himself could read, got good grades, and had already become a good kid who would achieve something in the neighborhood.

Ever since he followed Masayoshi Kishimoto, his life has changed drastically. His position grew higher and higher, and his annual income followed suit.

As the only son of the Miyazaki family in Aomori Prefecture, he naturally sent money to his family. As more and more money was sent to him, his mother naturally became prouder and prouder; after all, it was a sign that her son was getting better and better in Tokyo.

When old people get together, no matter which country or nationality, they will always brag not only about money, but also about their children’s success or lack thereof.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t been back to his hometown over the years. In the past, when he was not doing well, he did not have the face to go back. After he got well, he stayed for a long time either in Seoul, South Korea, or in San Francisco, USA.

It was rare to have a long vacation once a year. Even when he went back to his hometown, it was mainly to visit his mother, after all, his father died in his senior year.

As for friends and family from the past, even when they met, they couldn’t talk to each other. Some of his classmates and friends were married early and had children.

They are busy raising their families every day. The topic of this can not be separated from the social complaints, work complaints, income complaints, family complaints and so on.

As for dreams, there are none. If you have to say that there is still any dream in their body, that is to play pachinko to win the jackpot.

On top of that, one has two younger sisters. After graduating from high school, the youngest sister neither pursued further education nor worked, and completely began a life of squatting at home.

After her elder sister got divorced, she brought her two children along to live in her mother’s house. She worked at a convenience store not far from where she lived. For this reason, he is not good to say a what, as if he is not at his mother’s side, so the two younger sisters to fulfill their filial piety.

He also knew in his own heart that his mother would definitely take the money he sent her and use it to support his two sisters, as well as his eldest sister’s two children. Otherwise, this relatively decent ordinary middle-class life could not be maintained.
