On a rest day, for the first time, I spent a full two days with Blake. Since then, we have had meals together and also gone to the aquarium, fully enjoying our time together.
Then, when the sun set, we got on the return train and embarked on our journey home. But I know that such days are not so easily obtained. So anyway, we naturally feel reluctant to part from each other.
Blake, who got off at the nearest station with me, accompanied me all the way to near the ticket gate. But I just couldn't bring myself to say that "goodbye."
Seeing me standing there uneasily alone, Blake just smiled quietly. This made me very anxious. I gently grabbed his fingertip. As a result, he stroked my hair as if to comfort me.
"Let's go out and play again."
"Um."
"I will call you after I get back."
"Um."
