"Are you okay Tetsuya?"
Tsukino asks, looking
concerned for me.

I was thinking and
what startles me is
a teardrop that
hits my hand.

"I'm okay Tsukino."
I tell her, not wanting
for her to worry.

"Do you know about
salvation?"

Tsukino nods at my
question, "Yes, I recall
you talking about it
at a school assembly
once."

Oh I forgot that I did
that.

It was a while ago.

Maybe a few months
back.

"It was a beautiful
speech. I felt this
sudden urge in
me from it...."

Tsukino continues,
smiling rather softly.

This moment now
is rather special.

It's rare.

What is?

Salvation and those
who truly know about
it.

It's not only about
knowing about it,
but accepting it.
