"When I was six years old, I broke my leg.

I was running from my brother and his friends,

and tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down."

________________________________________________________________________________

A car blurred by the country road, passing by dozens of tress as well as hills and mountains. The sun was coming up the horizon, heating up the morning chill in the countryside. Animals passing by the car window and early riser's opening up stores to start working.

The car was a Mustang, blue in colour, going seventy kilometers per hour pass the countryside. A man was in it just in his early twenties, he had an amazing jawline a little bit of hair growing on it, a pair of eyes as blue as the ocean focusing on the road, he had a smile on his face, his hair is red and was kept unkempt going in every direction.

"Seventeen years have passed huh? Time sure does fly past, I wonder if... They're still back home." sighed out the man his name is Matsuda Kinzo a CEO who moved to Tokyo to pursue his dreams of owning his own company. Now seventeen years later he is back in his hometown, Jidai. 

Jidai was once an important political center, some people have nicknamed it the 'Kyoto of Eastern Japan' for its century old Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines, old wooden homes, and historical monuments. Bordering it with a shoreline and is surrounded by a forest scenery. In addition the town has a lot of attractions, its hills provide lovely hiking trails. The town is particularly popular during the summer months, attracting crowds with its sandy beaches and relaxed atmosphere. The best thing about the town is it is not to far from Tokyo. Although it does take a bit of time to get there.

His eyes blurred through the scenery, his pupil expanding as he saw an old hangout spot where he, his brother and friends used to play. "I wonder if the old swing set is still there?" He questioned. Smiling and making up his mind he pulled over to the side of the road and began hiking up the small hill, the trees giving him shade from the early sunrise. 

The flowers were starting to blossom giving the track the beautiful appearance it has. One of the types of flower on the hill was a pink coloured rose with a darker shade of pink inside it. On the other side of the trail, he saw a blue and red rose growing on the side of the path It looked pretty with its vibrant colours complementing each other.

Walking down the trail felt like walking down a fantasy trail like in the movies. The light just barely passing through in between of the gaps of the tree, lighting up a bit of the area. The aroma of the flowers was intoxicating he couldn't help but pick up one of them and smell it.

"I'm almost on the top of the hill, It's really relaxing coming up here again, reminds me of the simple days where we just get to play around and mind our own business." he sighed out 'Yeah, those were the days.' 

Making up to the top of the clearing he saw it, a lone tree on top of the hill with two swing sets hanging from the branches. Looking back he saw the shoreline and the beautiful view from up the hill, seagulls were flying just above the shoreline, stunning music made by the birds coming from the trees and the sun getting larger from the horizons lighting up the town more.

Making his way to the swing set he sat down and reminisce the past of him playing with his friends and his brother.
