It was the day after.
Nao was in good spirits,
and he found himself much more focused than the days before.
Probably more than when he first started high school.
As he took down notes,
the wind made a small flower petal fly its way to his notebook.
"You're brought here by nature as well, aren't you?"
He smiled.
"It's nice, isn't it?…
That nature brings us all together.
We meet people who we would cherish―
if not now, then the future.
We find new ways to color our lives with nature's canvas."
Nao lifted the petal from his notebook and held it in his palm.
"Off you go, then...
Fly towards your destination."
With a blow of his breath, the petal soon left his grasp.
Nao started to write on his notebook again.
"I'm thankful to that same nature, you know…
It let me meet her."
With a smile, he let the time pass.
