Legs extending from the skirt... skin peeking out from the hem... thin, see-through underwear... swelling breasts... a ponytail tied with cheap rubber bands... an innocent nape... a blushing smile... You listen to the dry sound of kicking up dirt on the field. The expression gripping the chain link fence seems somehow very happy... Watching your back like that was my after-school routine. But one day, I saw it. A sad face, in a dimly lit classroom with no one else around... Today, tomorrow, and the day after seem the same, but there's something different. Because of these murky days, you swim desperately... The usual sunset seen on the way home. Blinking suddenly. To make today become 'that day' someday... The day I ran back to school. Back then, with a beautiful girl in her school uniform.
