"It's nice outside. Come with me."
Shigure dropped by. I was just about to have a little bit of breakfast during his visit. He was insisting that I come with him today. Indeed, the day looked real fine. It was tempting. So I sipped a bit of tea made by Kureno and left the main estate.
"Wouldn't everyone worry?" I asked.
"Don't worry." is just he said.
It's been a while since Shigure and I spent time together. I was a bit nervous because I didn't know whether my body would act up or not. Hatori didn't come and nor did Kureno; but I wouldn't want them to come. Not today.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll see." is just he said.
I was too frail to think of anything. I was just happy to be with him inside the car. I would say I'm surprised to see him driving again. Shigure is lazy. But whenever he's motivated, he's one of the hardest workers I've seen in my life.
"Are you having a hard time writing these days?"
"Not at all." is just what he said.
"How's work?"
"Nothing much." is just what he said.
For such an articulate and for such a novelist, I could only hear him say a few words in the car. I was hoping to have a conversation during the ride; just to pass the time.
"And we're here." he pulled over and I looked at the window and I didn't dare blinked. "What do you think? The flowers here are nice, huh?"
Shigure brought me to this open field. It was filled with flowers and it was so colorful. The grass was just right that we could sit in the open field and just forget about the world. It was simply beautiful. I sought refuge, is what I thought. The wind was blowing and I looked around and saw the grass swaying along. It was a magical sight to see them sway in unison; it's like a scene from the movie. There was hardly anything on the road. It's like we're far away from civilization.
"How'd you find this place?" I asked. "It's beautiful."
"Isn't it? I was driving around when I had a writer's block and I saw this place. You could say I've been driving for a while." he sat down on the grass. "So... what do you want to talk about? It's been a while, Akito."
It's good that he brought me outside. Isn't it that I'll die faster if I rot inside my room?
