The Sun at Night
Words of the Day:
"I have no place for gods.
But though I cannot believe in gods,
I can believe in myself."
- Genjyo Sanzo (Or actually Kouryu?)

There is no light at night. That's what I learnt on my first night out. The sky in the night-time has nothing. It holds nothing bright at all.
It's dark. It's cold. It scares me.
'Sanzo?'
Sanzo… He said to call him Sanzo. Where was he now? Where is the sun hiding?
'Sanzo! Where are you? It's dark!'
There's no sun at night, so I need to keep my sun with me.
'I'm scared!'
It's like the cave again. Cold, and dark, and lonely, and alone. I'm all alone again.
'Don't leave me!'
I grope my way blindly through this foreign place. It's big, it's confusing, but I know that I will have more freedom here than I ever could have in that small cage.
'Sanzo?!'
"I'm here! Stop shouting already, baka saru! You're giving me a headache."
My sun. He's here. My sun whose golden hair shines brighter and clearer than anything else I remember. It's alright again. Nothing would go wrong, it's alright now, it's alright, I comforted myself, grasping onto his sleeve.
P.S. I didn't mention stars, because I wanted his first night out in the temple with Sanzo to have an overcast nighttime sky. Then that way, I'll have more to write about. (reflects on word count) Sorta.
P.P.S. Can be taken as shounen-ai if you want. I don't mind BL. But it's more of a… I don't know, platonic thing? Comforting sort of feeling I wanted to get across?
