It rained again in Ichigo’s inner world.

June [-]th.

The anniversary of his mother’s death.

Tsukimi left her inner world and sat in the cemetery early, looking at the blue sky, waiting for the arrival of Ichigo and Rukia, feeling a little emotional.

There is such a gloomy rain in my heart, but the outside world is a clear sky.

Ichigo…

Sad?

Do not……

And guilt.

……

As a result, Tsukimi saw Rukia waving at Ichigo with a smile on his face in the morning as expected.

“…”

Isn’t it the death day? Why are you smiling so high!

Tsukimi sat on the stone for a long time, and Rukia and Ichigo, who were in the joyful interaction, found her sitting there all the time, and then greeted her in a daze.

“Huh? See Tsuki-san?” Ichigo called out.

“…Hi, Kurosaki-san.” Tsukimi smiled.

“You are…” Ichigo frowned, “It’s only Wednesday, aren’t you going to school?”

“Isn’t Kurosaki-san too?” Tsukimi asked him back, but kept looking at the sky.

It’s sunny…so nice.

“Is Yue Jian also here to sweep the grave?” Rukia’s tone was a little questioning, maybe the previous suspicion has not been eliminated.

“Yeah.” Yue Jian smiled, and she was indeed here to visit the grave.

I used to imagine that if there really was a place like Soul World…wouldn’t she be there too?

“There is someone in Yuejian’s classmate’s family…” Ichigo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt that what he said was a bit abrupt, and scratched his head, “Did someone pass away?”

I really can’t imagine how this transfer student who usually doesn’t show much emotion looks like a dead person at home.

Or as Rukia guessed…

“It happened a long time ago.” Tsukimi looked towards the slope they had just walked, and saw Kurosaki Isshin, Yuko and Xia Li, “Is that your family?”

“Huh? Ah, yes.” Ichigo didn’t react, and then replied, “A crazy dad and two younger sisters.”

“You can’t say that about your father.” Yuejian shook her head and looked at him seriously, “It’s a blessing to have someone from the older generation in the family.”

“Yo, Ichigo—poof—”

Kurosaki kicked with all his heart, and then Ichigo dodged and kicked him in the face.

Ichigo had black lines all over his face.

This Ojisan is not my father, what a shame, bastard! !Lucky fart! !Fortunately, he was still thinking about what Yuejian said just now, you ugly Ojisan! !

“Whose grave did Yue Jian classmate visit?” Rukia asked.

It was just a plain question, but from Yue Jian’s standpoint, Rukia’s question seemed a bit aggressive.

“……grandmother.”

The wind stopped abruptly.

Ichigo still maintained the posture of beating Isshin, just standing there.

So, is it a blessing to have an older generation in the family?

“Meet my classmate, you…”

Ichigo saw that there was fog on the frame of Tsukimi’s glasses.

“Huh? It’s okay, I just remembered something.” Tsukimi was startled when he heard Ichigo’s voice, and then lowered his head to find a few drops of water on the ground.

I actually cried…how embarrassing.

“Really?” Ichigo tried to find other expressions on her face, but found nothing but a smile.

It’s clearly a smiling face, but why are you crying all the time?

Ah, look, just dried and dripped down.

Waking up suddenly, Ichigo wondered if he was dazzled just now.After passing Rukia and Yue Jian, he ran uphill quickly, as if he saw something serious.

“Why is she here?”

The soul from six years ago…

“Kurosaki-san?” Tsukimi looked at the galloping Ichigo and said softly.

“…Let’s go after it.” Rukia spread her hands, then took Yue Jian’s hand and ran up.

Because of exhaustion, Rukia ran up first, and Tsukimi took a step slower, walking up the slope, only to see Ichigo kneeling on the ground, talking with his hands on his hands.

“It was actually me who killed my mother.”

Suddenly feel sad.

Would love to say no.

just can’t say…

……

Afterwards, Ichigo followed Ichigo to Masaki Kurosaki’s tombstone, watching Yixin making a fuss.Rukia didn’t come, probably thinking about what Ichigo said.

“Kurosaki-san, don’t frown, your mother will be unhappy.” Seeing Ichigo’s concentration, Tsukimi said.

“…Yuejian said that he is here to see grandma.” Ichigo smiled, but his brows did not stretch, and he changed the subject.

“Yeah.” Tsukimi nodded, staring at Masaki’s tombstone.

“Your grandmother is also today…”

“No.” Yue Jian interrupted him, shaking his head, “Grandma passed away in winter.”

It’s ridiculous.

In the past, she always felt that every book said such words as “she can’t survive” and “can’t survive this winter”, but she never thought that this kind of thing would happen to her. [1]

on those closest to you.

“then you……”

“Grandma likes summer.” Yuejian smiled, looking at the sun in full bloom, “So, on a sunny day in June, I’m here to see her.”

She likes summer the most. Summer takes her outside to play, and then looks at the warm sun and says, “It’s sunny, it’s so nice.”

Only now, she is not here.

“…Really.” Ichigo replied after a moment of silence, “When are you leaving?”

She spends all day reading in the classroom, so she probably won’t stay in the cemetery for too long, right?Even close ones, but she’s dead.

Probably won’t stay for her anymore.

“I want to wait until night.” Yue Jian shook his head, “It’s just as long as the stars come out.”

“Why?” Ichigo was puzzled, it was only morning, and it would be noon soon, and it was still early before dark.

And, why obsess over looking at the stars.

“Grandma, it’s ridiculous to say that people will turn into stars after death?” Yue Jian looked up to the sky, and stretched out his hand to cover the dazzling sun in front of him.

“I have always believed that she will also become a star in the sky, and will always be with me—”

Although this is just a beautiful idea, she has always believed that she is still there.

“—but I can’t find her.”[2]

Ichigo’s eyes widened slightly, looking at Tsukimi’s expression that seemed to be recalling, he couldn’t say any comforting words for a while.Never thought that she would believe these things.

But she even has a soul, so it’s not an exaggeration for her to believe in legends like stars.

“Perhaps, maybe she is really looking at you.” Ichigo scratched his head to hide his embarrassment.

Maybe really looking at you, in the world of souls.

I look forward to growing up little by little.

“Perhaps.” Yue Jian nodded, but did not give a clear answer.

She thought about it.

I thought about if there really was a place like Soul Soul Realm in reality, if grandma was really watching her there.

She thought about it and felt very happy.

But Yuejian’s thinking was too clear, telling her clearly that these were impossible, she died, she died in another world, and she could never see her again.

That’s why I was so sad and wept.

The author has something to say: [1] A stalk that is used in many stories… The old man is always seriously ill and cannot survive the winter.

[2] It’s still a meme, forget where I’ve heard the phrase “dead people turn into stars”, anyway, it’s a very common saying… What Yuejian said “I can’t find her” is so full of stars in the sky It is bright, but she just can’t find the star that grandma turned into.

Science didn’t support that either, but she preferred to believe it.

I will use 1234 as a comment in the future_(:з」∠)_
