Sumi de ii Desu. Kamawanaide Kudasai

The town of Kyo is a little different from the town of Edo.

The town I'm in is next to a flower district called Shimahara, and from time to time I saw a geisha man walk down the road. I look at it, but I no longer follow that figure sideways as much as I used to. Besides, there are many shrine Buddhist shrines that have been around for a long time, and monks sometimes see palace priests dressed in hunting clothes and garments.

There is no one making more noise than Edo again, and somewhere the whole place is laid back. But that may be because of Kyoto-specific dialects.

I'll be at the seaweed shop in a little while.

It wasn't long before I had to run ten houses away, so I fixed my stand properly once and then walked out again.

- Nyan.

……

I hear a cat from behind.

I stopped by accident.

... because I miss why.

Now it's not uncommon to see, what a wildcat looks like. I hear the ringing about once a day, and I'm used to hearing it.

Although.

"Protection?"

From the day of that fire, two figures I never saw.

Were you able to escape, or were you not?

How many times I would have wet my pillow with tears on them not showing up.

The wind told me that both of them should have been taken to the temple by Brother Shimizu Yisa, but never confirmed their appearance.

I was overwhelmed not only by Shimizu's brother Yisa and Aeri, but also by the uncanny thought of whether they were going away from me.

But.

"Geko"

"Chappie?"

Turn around and I'll have two people in front of me who look the same as they did back then.

Why, why, what was the word?

However, my vision became more and more distorted by the two black eyes staring at me.

"Nyaa (come here)"

"What, protection?

But where is the time for an inspiring reunion, the guardian turns his heel and runs in the opposite direction.

Chappie is on her guardian's back, so the two of them went one by one away from me.

"Where are you going!

I'm glad to finally meet you.

Without wondering what that looks like, which hasn't changed after ten years, I go after them.

The kind of gaze that sees me chasing a cat, even a weird thing, stabs me from around, but I couldn't care less. The fact that I let go of my use for seaweed stores came through my brain halfway through, but I shake my head and now concentrate my consciousness on them.

"Protect!"

I don't know where the protection is going to take me, but I've already come to a different place with the name of the town.

But I think the escorts who went along the river on the two-stranded road came to know where the destination was.

Certainly at the end of this direction, there was a large shrine.

The road is at the end of its shrine, behind which there are only mountains. When I was traveling, I went by.

Protection stopped in front of a big red birdhouse.

I follow it and stop.

As I wondered if there was anything here, the protection shook my tail and looked back at me.

"You. Now it's time to be happy."

But when I thought I heard a voice doubting my ears, the guardian disappeared and became the figure of one man.

"That's all we ever wanted."

Chappie is nowhere to be seen either.

Instead, he shows up before me.

Is this really happening?

Because they weren't in this world, and no, they weren't supposed to be.

But if it really existed properly and its shape as a creature had changed, it would be a different story.

But it's too hard to believe.

So they've been with me the whole time?

You mean you've been beside me in that brothel the whole time?

"Shallow, shield? Mr. Tsuzo?

"Don't cry. We can't keep you around anymore, so..."

"Laugh cheerfully next to him."

The feet of the two men who said they couldn't stay by are clear.

One day, in a state like that of Brother Shimizu, tears seemed to disappear from his sight, but he opened his eyes to what he saw ahead of his gaze toward him and Toriya.

"The man who made the death of wild daisies his own."

"What does that mean?"

"I'm a stupid man, but I guess it would be a little better with you.... You asked for it."

That word at the end, they disappeared out of my sight. There's nowhere to look around.

But it was on the ground where the two of them were, with beautiful brown and green bells falling into my eyes.

I crouch down and take it and lean against my cheek.

"Thank you"

Squeezing the bell in my hand, I stood with my bent leg extended.

And never, ever, go one step at a time ahead of the birdhouse.

The red birdhouse in the shrine was much bigger than the shrine birdhouse in Yoshihara, and I felt what a really tiny human being I was.

Pass by the thick pillars and come all the way to the front of the statue of the two hounds.

At the end of the road is the main hall, a splendid, large wooden one that I do not know is awe.

A tip up the stairs behind such a main hall coin box.

With a wooden pillar on his pillow, there was one man who slept as he sat.

Dark hair is long enough to wear on the shoulder or not.

Its sleeping face is as beautiful as a woman's, its nostrils like a single line through, its skin as white as snow.

On top of the long dark green clothes, they are woven with red feathers.

There are only a few things slightly different than what he looks like in my memory, but I can clearly tell that that is true.

I gently went up the stairs and approached the man.

Sit nearby and take a deep breath to keep you awake.

I don't know what to say.

What words should I say if I wake up?

I'm terribly confused in my head about what I've been doing, where I've been, with the shallow guardians, etc.

But.

"Finally, finally, I see you"

Peek into his face from the side and exhale as he holds down his trembling lips.

The tears I was hoarding finally came to the limit and conveyed my cheeks.

I can't put overflowing feelings into words. A bell still in my hand rings chillin and leans in to gently stroke that heart of mine.

Closed his eyes revealed more tears and wet chests.

……

Second, I feel uncomfortable in the back of my head.

It's like being put on your hand, it's like being supported. You'll be swollen with tears. Gradually open your eyelids.

My vision was blurred, so I repeatedly blinked.

"Is this heaven?"

A black eye with a small star instantly in the night sky emerges from under a lid covered with long eyelashes.

"Brother, Sama"

"The sky in this world, where you are, is very blue"

Overlap it so that it is attracted to the nearest lip.

What kind of life shall I choose this time?

If there is a world with loved ones, no matter which one you choose, you will surely have a smile ahead of you. Because it's the most miraculous thing in the world that likes someone and their opponents think of themselves as well.
