☽ lunch friend
━━━━━━━━

The next day, Sora was already in her seat when Riki arrived, and he was rather pleased to see that Itsuki was at the opposite end of the class from Sora.

The sun was shining brightly today, so much so that even Sora's table was lit up.

Throughout the hour, Riki had watched the sun's rays through the window.

Sometimes they passed through clouds and trees, and sometimes they reflected off roofs and cars.

But for Riki, the sun's rays were always beautiful. It didn't matter where they landed or passed through.

The sun's rays were always beautiful.

He was so overwhelmed by their beauty that Riki didn't see the time pass, and the bell rang.

He hurried to put his things away and leave the room, but Jake quickly caught up.

"Riki ! I was planning to have lunch with Sunoo this afternoon, do you want to come with us ?"

The classroom gradually emptied, until Sora walked past him. He followed her with his gaze and turned his attention back to Jake.

"I don't think I'll come."

He saw Jake raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Sunoo is your friend, and it's been a long time since you've seen him."seeing that Riki didn't react, he tilted his head and said under his breath," I'll buy you lunch if you want."

Jake put his hand on Riki's shoulder but he gently removed it, saying, "I've got responsibilities now." with a slight smile.

Jake watched Riki walk away without really understanding his behavior.

Riki had never turned down a meal with his friends, even less so with Sunoo. He always took the opportunity to leave school when he could.

Jake put his hands in his pockets, and joined his friend Sunoo to eat outside, without Riki.

☾ ☽

Riki walked with his tray in his hands.

He was looking for someone in particular.
