"Do I even have a choice?"
"Of course not." Takeshi smirks.
"I don't feel like going today..."
"We made a deal."
He grabs my sleeve. "Remember?"
"Asshole."
He pushes me down the hallway,
down the stairs,
past the lockers.
Until,
we see them.
Like always.
Two silhouettes
standing by the school gates.
Two girls that I've never seen.
They're laughing
about something I have no part of.
Again...
Why did I follow him?
"Don't mess it up for me, Keichi."
"I get it."
They must have heard our voices.
They turn around and wave.
"Told you," I hear Takeshi say.
"They're real cute this time."
But,
my legs won't move.
"Keichi? You alright?"
His voice drifts out of focus.
Why is she...
I've only seen her
across from me,
in the stillness,
in the darkness.
On those days where mist
floats gently over
everything like
a never-ending
haze.
When her long,
damp hair
sticks against
her neck.
