I don't know since when. The word surrender made me feel at ease in this silent world. I was at a loss for words, kneeling before the miracle of the vision I used to live my life.
The monochrome dawn began to shine. However, I hope that won't change. As long as this life continues, now is it good if it was a dream? I still dream of it now.
It's like coming back to the forgotten. But still, I wiped away the old memories. Even the past that I keep hiding, will continue to be gloomy forever.
Now, is that still a dream? Be aware, you are walking alone on a road filled with thorns and all obstacles. But you understand, all that can be passed with a tired body.

Slowly my consciousness began to gather after hearing the music of the number eleven piano sonata. The musical sound of the work of a famous Pianist of his time, Mozart. Close your eyes a few times, staring at the white walls.
I'm looking for my smart phone whose music source is near my feet. Because it felt far away, I chose to get up and grab it using my right hand. My phone's alarm will stop if it's shaken ten times.
When my phone alarm went off, I intended to go back to sleep going to the pressure of the mattress that locked me away. Holidays like this usually sleep until noon, but it will be bad for the condition of the nerves and muscles will weaken.
When you wake up during the day. The head will hurt with a heavy body. To relieve it, it takes drinking a lot of clear water. The body is the most important part, so maintain health and stay healthy with a healthy lifestyle.
Scroll the wall clock above the door. The clock still shows six o'clock over two minutes. Since this day is quite leisure without any hindrance, I intend this day to enjoy my days at home.
Go to the kitchen immediately because my room is on the first floor. Room size is only 2x2 and makes anyone stuffy. But for me, having my own room is precious.
Wash your face until the sleepiness slowly disappears. I looked at my face with blackened eyes. It seems that my body lacks fluid and the use of pillows that are too flat one of the causes of eye bags.
Get back to the kitchen. There were two cats that were waiting for me to leave. Apparently, they both asked for taxes this morning. Two feed containers, quiz to the brim so that they are both full and can laze around all day.
Using equipment in the form of a complete set of sports uniforms. Wearing a jacket this morning will be a piercing cold on every layer of skin. For now, run in the morning so that the body condition is maintained and healthy.

One run is usually strong up to two kilometers without stopping. Stopping for a moment in a park that is no stranger to me, this place is my first meeting place with Kifune. However, I already understood what he explained a while ago.
When in his home, his mother now has a new bakery business in the shopping district. I asked, ‘do you recognize me?’ he noticed Kifune's reaction. To my surprise, Kifune did not remember his past as much as a faint fog blocked his view.
Kifune recounted what he experienced after meeting the two of us in this park. Growing up, Kifune suffered a troublesome injury. Mute has happened since birth, but a new thing appeared after that.
Brain injury that caused it. His memory began to blur when the accident that befell him occurred. Kifune's goal in returning to this area was to reminisce if only he could remember the impression that had been on his heart.
That's why I have no right to force it in everything related to him. Memory loss is a terrible thing, all meaningful memories will be lost and yourself feel isolated.
Therefore, when the second meeting in class when Kifune moved. I feel like he is different from what he used to be. But thanks for this coincidence, I was able to meet him again.
Sitting in an elongated chair in the garden. Looking at the children's game that makes me nostalgic for childhood memories. Just remembering it, made me want to cry and laugh at my innocent stupidity.
“Man will change with time. Mistakes will continue to be within you. But without mistakes too, humans will not go forward and go further.”

When returning home accompanied by small steps that accompany. Panda's call was heard, My mother told me to have breakfast first in this monochrome blind morning. Sitting at the dining table above which has been prepared a sandwich of meat and cheese.
It is simple, I ask for this food menu every day off because nutritional intake and protein is needed when resting. Back to my room after thanking my mother who was busy in the kitchen. I have my smart phone on the table.
I got a message from Kifune. Fill in the message regarding the group work that will be done today. I forgot about the promise, but Sakaguchi reminded me last night.
For that reason, I have new activities on a set schedule. For now, fix yourself up and leave at the appointed appointment time. Ten in the morning, that was the set time for the three of us to gather somewhere.
* * * * *
Wearing casual clothes in the form of gray shirts coated with a black jacket that is quite thin. Using black chino type trousers. My current appearance is the best in my opinion.
Our place of appointment was in a city park not far from the location of the three of us. Along the path of the steps I took, every human being passed me looking for the worldly passions seen from the behavior. The answer is uncertain, unwittingly within yourself.
On my smartphone, the clock shows nine in the morning over fifty minutes. When the city park was seen from a distance, the two men arrived early and were discussing something. I put both feet that felt light, I called them both nicknames.
“Masbro! Here!”
Sakaguchi called out to me waving their right hand. After the three of us gathered, Kifune showed me the next place to go. The public library, that's where the three of us were headed.
I glanced at Sakaguchi and Kifune who were rising from the elongated wooden chair. Sakaguchi wears casual clothes with long jeans, the upper part wearing a red shirt. While Kifune, he wore his school uniform completely.
* * * * * *
Kifune chose the public library as our group workplace. Facilities in the form of cooling, Wi-Fi, and clean place have been provided. Although it is still early morning, this public library has been visited by several people.
Our seating positions are separate. I sat alone on some of these empty benches. While in front of me, there is Kifune who on his left side is Sakaguchi. For some reason, both of their moods looked good.
“I chose materials related to Alexander The Great.”
Sakaguchi submitted a world history material that we will use as a presentation. Kifune proposed a history of white hair syndrome associated with Marie Antoinette. As for me, I have actually thought carefully but still there are good ones.
“Albert Einstein.”
My words made Kifune and Sakaguchi quite surprised. Because our three topics differ in their scope of time and type. Even so, I know enough about those three outstanding figures.
Alexander the Great, Alexander III of Macedon. He is better known as Alexander the Great King of the Macedonian Empire. At the age of thirty, he presided over the greatest empire in ancient history. It stretches from the Lonia Sea to the Himalayas.
Marie Antoinette, the last Queen of France before the French Revolution. She was born in Austria and the second child of Maria Theresa, Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor. The main attraction of Marie Antoinette is the Marie Antoinette syndrome.
Hair loss that occurs suddenly. The syndrome is based on the observation that Marie Antoinette's hair from France turned very white after she was captured on the run to Varennes when the French Revolution broke out. Her hair changes occurred in three separate conditions, there is news that her hair bleaching comes from severe depression.
Albert Einstein, a theoretical physicist widely regarded as the greatest Scientist of the twentieth century. He proposed the theory of relativity and also contributed to the development of quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and cosmology.
When I think of those three figures while Sakaguchi and Kifune are arguing. My eyes were on Kazari who was on this holiday wearing a full school uniform, just like Kifune.
“Kazari Senpai! Over here!”
I cried out in a loud voice and disturbed the other visitors. Although Kazari had already turned his head towards me, he turned his face back and looked still angry. Was he still angry when yesterday's event at the school park?
“Waah .. We can't do this. I wish there was a Senpai who would help. Hah .. when I was very difficult, if anyone would help me.”
I deliberately hardened my voice a little so that Kazari's ears grew hotter to hear it. As I thought, he wanted to go to my place but his wish was withheld.
“Oh! Senpai Kazari! Will you help these struggling juniors! Good-natured and not arrogant senpai.”
My words forced him into this situation. He approached the three of us and sat to my right. Immediately, he asked what was causing the three of us trouble.
I told him of the task of the world history group. Kazari had experienced the same thing with us. In first grade, he also got the same assignment as me.
“If not mistaken, our group discussed about the battle of the Guadalcanal Sea. The Battle of the Third and Fourth Savo Islands. According to Japanese sources as the Third Solomon Sea Battle.“
“Oh .. that topic is quite interesting as it covers the Imperial Japanese Navy. What do you two think?”
I asked Kifune and Sakaguchi who listened to Kazari's explanation until it was over. They both agreed to my proposal, after all, topics like this are rarely taken up by others.
“Thank you Senpai, I owe you. For that, I will listen to your request.”
“Mmm ... then ... ”
Kazari brought his mouth closer to my right ear. His breathing was clearly heard by me, slowly he whispered his request to me.
“Tomorrow take your time.”
Just with that short sentence. I understand what he said, but ... did he ask me out?
To Be Continue ....
