i had to call papa to say i would be late
but to my surprise he seemed happy when i mentioned i had a friend.
the call stayed at the back of my mind
nudging my thoughts
urging me to run home as soon
as possible
even though it was pouring.

"don't worry, Sora-chan,
the rain will stop soon. and if it doesn't
i'll walk through the rain with you
even if we both catch a cold."
Midori.
always the sparkling waves
in the depths of life's ocean.
