By the time Almark returned to his original path and arrived in front of the elementary school building, the area was completely dark.
In front of the school building, in the center of the grass called the school yard, there was only one flat ground, and Almark had long thought that it was definitely after the fire.
I see. Do you use it at such times?
The school yard, where the sun set and the temperature began to drop sharply, was lit with warm fire, and many students were gathered around it.
The festival begins later in the evening.
"Ah, Almark's here."
Morgan was the first to find the rushing Almark.
This way, Almark.
Nelson, Raido, Lilty and Norish surround Morgan. I have my usual friends.
And, of course, Wendy.
"Thank you for waiting."
Almark said.
"The fireworks aren't up yet. I'm glad we made it."
"It's over now."
With that said, the torque passes behind Almark.
You're lying, Almark.
Reido laughs.
"It's okay. The fireworks are coming."
"His lies won't last much longer."
Nelson stunned and looked at the torque's back.
Deg and Garaine are walking behind them sometime.
"But Almark and Nelson are the only ones that torque makes fun of."
Norish said.
"Why are you admitting to both of us?"
Troubleshoot me.
Nelson put out his tongue.
"I don't need him to admit it."
Almark looked around.
There are first-graders and second-graders.
Over there, you can see Ain leading a triennial team.
"Wendy, I don't think three of them are here."
"Yeah."
Wendy nodded a little worried.
"A while ago, we all entered the auditorium."
I see.
Almark nodded.
I hope we make it.
That's right.
That said, Wendy stood quietly next to Almark.
"Are you done?
Oh, yeah.
Wendy's eyes were sparkling from the flames.
Almark nods without seeing you for some reason.
"Today is over."
Good, then.
Wendy smiles.
Well then, they're gone.
"Of course."
When Almark nodded.
Well, maybe it's time.
With that said, Morgan quickly took out a new skewer.
He still has it.
Nelson rounds his eyes.
"How much did you buy?"
"I mean, you want to eat it with fireworks."
Morgan is good at it.
"That's why you were warming up a little with that fire."
"That's Morgan."
Reido nods.
"There are no flaws in food."
Well...
Morgan chews the skewers with a smile.
"Can I eat now?
Lilty blinked her eyes.
"Fireworks, not yet."
"Ah."
Morgan looks stunned.
"Shit. My mouth and my hands are at my disposal."
At that time, there was a low sound across the forest.
A lump of flame draws its tail and rises to heaven.
The flames that rose up to the sky opened up in a flash like flowers.
A loud cheer rises.
"It's amazing how many times I've seen it."
Almark glanced at the fireworks.
"It's really beautiful."
"Yeah."
Wendy smiled without letting go of the fireworks.
"Beautiful"
Another flaming flower blooms in the sky.
"I wish I could see this fireworks forever."
Wendy said.
"Next year, next year. And when I get up to high school,"
Wendy saw Almark.
"Let's launch fireworks together."
Fireworks illuminate Wendy's face from the side.
The eyes look moist and Almark is a little confused.
"Yeah."
Almark nodded forcefully.
It made Wendy feel a little at ease.
"Let's watch it together next year and the following year."
A big firework rises suddenly, and with it a loud cheer occurs.
Morgan is picking up a second skewer from somewhere.
"We'll see it every year until we're good magicians."
If I put it in my mouth, I knew it would happen.
"Yeah."
Wendy nodded and gently gripped Almark's hand.
Cold hands exposed to winter night air.
Almark gently gripped back his soft hand, as if it were light snow.
Three years. Two pairs together.
Wallis is raising his voice near the fire.
"Dancing starts around here."
When Almark and the others gather for Wallis, the three torques move away from the circle.
"Where are the torques going?"
Almark said Wendy pointed to the other side of the school yard behind the fire.
"Torques are players. There's an instrument over there."
I see. Sure, dancing requires music. "
Almark nodded, but immediately wondered.
But aren't the torques going to dance?
"Always is."
Norish answered.
"Isn't it illuminating? Torques always play."
Really?
Almark saw the torques disappearing behind the fire.
We've been here for three years.
Ain's voice came from right next to Al Mark and the others.
"Ain"
Wallis frowned.
"Would you guys be a little too close?"
Last night after junior high school.
That's what Ain said and laughed.
"Let's dance through the barriers of the class among our best friends."
Hmm.
Wallis puts his hand on his chin.
"Well, that's fine if we're all good."
Wallis looked around his classmates' faces and nodded at their faces.
"Well, there seems to be no objection. Very well."
"I wish I hadn't."
Ain laughed.
Then he looks at Almark on his face, who has no guidelines, and distorts his mouth.
"Almark, I'll tell you this is your first time, but women are overwhelmingly fewer. If you don't temporarily match the pieces of the song to find the next one, you'll be able to dance among the blurred men."
Almark opens his eyes to Ain's words.
Eh, are you going to change hands?
"Of course."
Ain frowned.
"If you think you can only dance with someone you like, you're wrong."
I see. Speaking of which, "
Almark saw Wendy.
"I don't even know how to dance."
"It's okay."
Wendy smiles.
"Let's dance with me first. I'll tell you. It's a very simple dance, so Almark can remember it right away."
"Yes, I understand."
Almark nodded.
Say hello.
There was a group that ran over in a big fuss with pity.
Ain frowned at it.
"They're coming. They're coming."
"They made it?"
Fiquet shouted innocently behind Ain.
I'll do it.
Abubu, we made it.
It was Koren who ran with his head cut off.
"When Dr. Ilmis' story resumed, I thought it was too late."
'Cause you're gonna sleep.
It was Polois who roughed up his voice behind Koren.
"It was already over."
I'm sorry.
Koren laughs and apologizes.
"So you did your best to repair the stage instead. That's how I managed to make it."
"I didn't make it. I couldn't see the fireworks."
Rosfilia raised her voice of resentment from further behind Polois.
"Koluen. I'll come to your room later. I'm going to raise the fireworks until I'm done."
"Hey, stop."
It was Luke, a classmate, who slapped Rosphilia in the shoulder with a sharp face.
"Don't shorten Demitre's life any longer."
I'm kidding.
"You don't sound like a joke."
When Lux swings his head, he turns around to see how many classmates he has with him.
"Killiebs went to play, didn't they? All right, everybody's here. Okay, let's start three groups around here."
"Lux, it's close."
Ain raised a voice that seemed annoying.
"There's a lot of stuff around here."
"Ain, that's not what you were saying."
Wallis laughed.
That's good. I made it in time. I could dance in three classes. "
"Well, if you say so."
Ain nodded hopelessly.
"Luke, please don't explode at the festival later this evening."
"I don't think so. I wonder how squeezed we are."
Lux frowned.
Amazing.
Almark looked back at Wendy.
"We're all together."
"Yeah, it's a festival."
Wendy smiled.
"Here we go."
That's what he said, pointing to the other side of the fire.
The lively music began.
