Colorless Aurora

penance

I walked away, past the school gate to get out and go home, someone was already standing beside the outer gate, with a hand holding an apple and a stick, he said, without seeing what the woman was doing in silence, I watched as the woman looked up at the sky.

"Miss why are you here ?." Asking me to see Rea suddenly appear in this place.

"I'm waiting for you ." Reply to Rea who I think is something no one thinks of.

How could he possibly know that I attended this school, while there were two other schools standing in the Shizuoka prefecture area.

He who wears a uniform from an extraordinary school that is not from this city, I was a little awkward, it could be said, I let a girl wait just to meet.

Though I don't know if Rea showed up for no reason.

"Do you want to go home ?." Ask Rea and walk over .

"Of course, because I can't go to school, where no teacher wants to teach outside of work ." I replied with a smile.

He laughed and replied to what I said, "But I don't think that teacher works, they serve ."

Said Rea who replied to my words with her blank look.

"There are no teachers to serve, while they march to ask for a raise ." I replied to Rea's words.

Rea was silent for a moment, like confusion, "Maybe you're right, it turns out they work, so the song has to be changed" Rea said with a faint smile thinking about the answer.

I feel more alive if being with this girl, every word Rea amazes me, he does not feel frustrated or moody, just because of a shortcoming possessed by his eyes, he reached out and I asked.

"What's wrong with your hand, miss ." Asked me to be confused.

He looked pouty, the hand still pointing at me and said ."Please help me walk." Said Rea who was feeling annoyed.

I should have known what he was trying to convey, when I reached for that little hand, the softness of his skin touched until my heartbeat fell apart.

"Where are we going ? ." Ask me, because I don't know what Rea wants to do.

"To the beach." That's what he said when he walked next to me.

In each step, I was accompanied by a murmur of pitched sounds, arising immersed in a beautiful rhythm.

It was as if time was slowing down and I didn't want time to go away for now, longer together with Rea, further to walk together, holding each other together and not caring about everyone's gaze.

It is only us, between two pairs of humans who have both lost half the meaning of life.

"Well, lady, why do you like twilight on that reef ?." Ask me one question that remains unanswered.

"Because I long for the sky, the sky is beautiful with the warmth of twilight, the sky is dark with the coolness of the wind and the sky is full of wonders an aurora."

That's what Rea answered, just as the mother had said, the miracle light of the cold ground. He wanted to find it, a miracle they wanted.

On the one hand I want to give a promise to mom and on the other hand I don't want to give hope to Rea.

"If someday when you're given a chance to see a miracle, will you fight for it." Ask me to Rea who is still smiling on every footrest.

What an atmosphere so heavy in my heart.

I still follow the road to the beach I used to come to see this woman, even now, it's like a dream and it feels so wonderful, enjoying time together.

"Well, lady, why are you so curious about me." I asked Rea.

"Why is it ?."

She smiled and asked herself back, as if she was trying to remember something and it made me wait to hear that answer.

One minute passed, no answer .

Five minutes passed, still trying to think .

Ten minutes passed and I said .

"Forgot my question, miss, before you forget we're on the beach." Said I saw Rea keep thinking complicatedly.

"Haha, I'm sorry, it's just like there's something I want to see, I don't know what, but it's a big deal ." Rea's like hiding something, but let it go.

He whom I helped step onto the reef, was indeed so sweet for me to notice, a slow but strong step, undaunted to walk with those slender legs.

For me alone sharp coral is enough to make the legs hurt.

I never really imagined, a few hours ago, that I was in a situation where I had to show the dark side I was hiding.

But for now, I was in a beauty that I would definitely remember, I always repeatedly thought, what Rea saw in the dark eyes staring at the twilight.

My heart trembled, I doubted, whether this was right or wrong, but before I said that, he said .

"Ah, every time I feel this warmth, somehow I feel that I am so lucky, warm twilight, cool breeze, seagull chirping and peace of heart, I am more alive, feel I am happy ."

Rea said with her arms widened into the sky, feeling every caress of wind fluttering black hair from the south.

Every word that Rea spoke, made flowing teardrops drench the smooth cheeks, in the warmth of the twilight of the moment.

Rea continued, "I don't feel complete, in my world more than darkness, it's so deep and I want to see everything."

A word where he wants something to save himself from loneliness.

What kind of life did he live?, did it feel dark?, Sadness in inability to resist destiny, the world behind Rea's gaze, so deep, desolate and pitiful.

I was just silent, not knowing what to answer, it was too deep, until I was silent, until I realized, if dark covers the afternoon sky today.

The world rotates on its axis, the sun changes, the moon comes, and vice versa, they follow their respective paths, in the systematic flow of currents from the universe.

I am only a small part of the existence of the universe, Rea accepts reality even though it is bitter and bitter in life.

While I hid in the excuses of karma, I rejected the reality, the penance for the loss of a mother. In the end I was just afraid to walk back to improve the life I had long left.
