Two boys have the sun to themselves. Summertime often brought mischief within the outdoors that were empty of adulthood. The eldest claimed responsibility for his brother, but that didn't stop them from doing risky things though. In fact, it was merely added fuel to the fire. The eyes of your number one fan constantly glued to you would bring anyone's ego to new heights. Displaying feats that were extraordinary to an absent mind, such as hopping over a fence or skipping a rock. The eldest knew these actions weren't similar to moving mountains, but leaving behind a smile on the face of his brother felt more valuable than gold. Seeing his face amused and in awe at the capabilities of an average teenager.
The two brothers even had their own hideout, often coming there together, but on occasion meeting there as well. It wasn't what anyone would define as a hideout, but the sight of an old abandoned gymnasium would welcome the two brothers with open arms. They were the only things keeping the location alive.
"You want to see me do a backflip?" The eldest asked.
"Yes!"
"Ok, how about this then, I can teach you to do it instead?"
"You can't do a backflip!" The youngest shouted.
"Wanna bet?"
"Fine! Just do it already! Do a backflip!"
The eldest brother squatted, preparing his legs for the sudden occasion. Once he became airborne, he carried his momentum through until his feet clapped against the dingy wooden floor. The sight was something to behold for the youngest. He couldn't believe his brother was actually capable of flight? Was he more than a teenager? Can all teenagers fly as his brother did?
"Wow!!" The youngest shouted. His eyes sparkled at the hero with no cape.
"Maybe one day I'll teach you something like that, huh, what do you think about that, Yuki?"
"Really?! You'd teach me how to fly?!"
"Eh... Well, anything you want me to teach you, I'm sure there's more that you want to do than just fly, right? Don't you want to go beyond the clouds? I wonder what it's like up there..."
"Oooh! You can see the birds up there, right?!"
"Yeah, you bet."
"So cool! Oooh! You have to teach me about the jumping power you have too!"
"Haha! Yeah, I can teach you whatever you want! Maybe one day you'll be able to jump higher than me, right?"
"Yeah! Way higher! Like a plane!" The youngest shouted. He didn't really care for the gap between them, but the view from the bottom came with utmost amusement. Sadly, on the other side, things weren't nearly as bright. But the sun still glittered, and the smile of the youngest brought a smile to the moon too.
"Yeah... Like a plane..."
