☽ what happened ?
━━━━━━━━━━

The sky was so gray that the birds were afraid to come out.

The world was silent and Sora's scarf fluttered in the wind.

She'd arrived late for class this morning, so she hadn't had time to talk to Riki.

So to pass the time, she looked at him.

Sometimes he lifted his head to look through the window, but since the sun wasn't out, he quickly lowered his head.

He'd redyed his hair black and cut it so short that no one but Sora noticed.

The class ended and when she went to eat, Riki was already seated.

"It's been a long time since we ate together, my lunch friend."

She smiled at him and settled down.

"I've missed eating with you."

Riki smiled back and they began to eat.

"Actually Sora, why do you love the moon so much ?"

"I love it because nobody pays any attention to it. The whole world sleeps when its around. But I love looking at it."

Riki raised his head to look at her. Her mouth was full and her tray was full too.

"I'll take you to the moon if you like it that much." Sora raised her head towards Riki with sparkling eyes. "You could even kiss it."

"That would be my greatest dream !" she said.

I'd love to be the moon Sora.

I'd love you to look at me the way you do with it,

with such sparkling eyes,

maybe if I were the moon,

you'd want to kiss me too ?

"I can't wait to see the eclipse." added Riki, leaning back in his chair.

Sora nodded because she'd just taken a mouthful of her dish, but in reaching for her glass to drink, she dropped her yoghurt.

She bent down to pick it up and Riki put his hand on the corner of the table and removed it immediately afterwards so she wouldn't notice.

"Me too. You realize, it's going to be so beautiful !"

"I wasn't really thinking about that." Sora frowned. "I can't wait because I'm going with you."

Her jaw dropped and she tried to hide her smile by playing with her food.
