Thus, the wise strive for light - to start over with a life in different worlds

I was sitting on the roof the night everyone fell asleep.

When I look at the sky, my mind calms down.

Since I was a little girl, I've always liked to go up on the roof.

... The guys at the orphanage used to piss me off.

Dangerous if it falls. But I know that.

That's something I've often talked about.

But, well, there was that time I enjoyed.

But that time didn't last forever.

A goodbye is for everyone. That's no exception to me.

... right. Goodbye is for everyone.

"Let's not. This story is already..."

I don't even want to remember.

When I was in the orphanage, one day I...

"... what are you doing?

Someone accidentally talks to me from behind, and I'm about to fall.

I managed to stomp and turn around, and there was Sophia looking down at me.

"Oh, Sophia. Is it dangerous?"

"What did the other guy say?"

"It's okay because I'm used to it."

Sigh at my say, Sophia.

After that, a freezing silence flows.

I usually find it awkward, but I don't think so under the starry sky.

Someone just looks next door at the stars I've always seen alone. That's the only difference, so I didn't feel uncomfortable.

"... What is Lazareth doing?

"I'm looking at the stars. Look, it's beautiful."

"Chili, is it?

Sophia with her neck in my words.

Sure, my words would be weird from a kid.

... but I never get to see it when I grow up. You have to see reality, more than dreams, more than stars. There are days when I stare at the ground.

"Sophia likes to see the sky?

"... nothing. I don't like or dislike it."

"Oh well. Yeah, I guess that's normal."

Here's what I told her, but nothing. I'm not going to abuse this hobby.

People have their own hobbies. Criticizing that would be something called wildness.

"It's empty, doesn't it look like the ceiling of this world once in a while?

"Ha. Is it the ceiling"

"Yes, the ceiling. Or painting. Even though the clouds and the sun are there, they look somewhat planar. How about Sophia?

"I, it's nothing..."

Sophia looks surprised and sits next to me.

And he sees the sky like I do, but apparently he couldn't get an understanding.

"Yeah. I'm sure that's normal. There's only one sky in this world, but I'm sure no one can see it the same way."

"What about that?

"... can I have a little fairy tale that no one knows about?

I get up and sit in a slightly higher chimney.

The chimney hole is quite small and won't fall.

―――

In one place, there was one boy who liked to see the stars.

He lived happily ever after, surrounded by just one friend, his parents and his sister.

But one time, a bad person attacked the children.

My parents have been killed by them, but the boy and his sister. And only my friends survived.

But they're still kids. When I was lost on the road, I saw an old lady who seemed kind at one point inviting me here.

"This way. Come here and I'll give you all the rice and sweets you want."

The boys are going to live at that old lady's.

When I got to my grandmother's house, there were a lot of kids, similar to the boys.

A child abandoned by your father and mother, or a child who has fallen off.

And some of the kids got their fathers killed the same way.

From the next day, the boys studied hard, had a cup of rice and lived happily ever after.

My sister makes friends, and my boy friends, they're popular with everyone.

But only one, only the boy, can't tame it.

The boy was everyone's hater.

One day, a friend said:

"How come you don't get along with everyone?".

The boy answers the question as if he had trouble.

"I have a starry sky with you, that's fine," he said.

The boy's words were his unmistakable heart.

The next day, my God, everyone was gone.

Too suddenly, the boy is in a great panic.

We looked for different cities, we looked in the woods, we looked for a lot.

But I only had a little idea why the boy had everyone gone.

"Because I'm the only one, not like everyone else". That said, the boy cries, keeps crying, and at the end of the day he falls asleep tired.

And when I woke up, there was a starry sky on one side.

A starry sky, always unchanged and brilliant, stared gently at him as his sister and friends disappeared.

Shit.

―――

When I finished talking about the boy, I sat back in the same place again.

"How'd it go?

"How was it, what made the boy different from everyone else?

"... right, the boy was only a little smarter than everyone else"

"Because you were smart, you said you were left behind?

... In some cases, the boy was left behind.

I was just smart, I just had more aptitude as a soldier than anyone.

Murder Sino Talent Ga, Attadakede.

The boy took the children...

"Besides, the way it ends is too cut-off. It's a fairy tale, even brighter..."

"Really? Then you can decide how it ends."

"Huh?"

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Then I'll go back inside, and you'll go back before your body gets cold."

I tell him the rope that was dripping in the empty window, and I go back inside.

Then, after seeing the sky again, I went back to my room.
