The environment around the house has fresh air. It's wide open and has the smell of grass and trees mixed in the air.
The night is getting lit with warm colored street lamps.
Aki closed his eyes to settle his heart.
Yuki was still standing on the porch watching Aki. He observed as Aki was smiling for some reason while standing alone. To him, It looked like a sad expression. He knows Aki won't enter the house no matter how many times he calls. He went and stood next to Aki.
Aki was remembering his bitter past.
After Mei died, he really had lost it one time. Reiji's comment reminded him those thoughts making him smile.
"Why is he smiling...like that?" Reiji wonders in his mind.
Aki, really being unable to bear everything, he had to detach himself from everything.
Yuki stands in between Reiji and Aki. Reiji moved away and stood next to Aki on the other side while staring at Aki.
