Chapter 3: "The sky and a frozen heart"

The Next Day:

Naozumi spotted Sana walking on the other street. "Sana!" he shouted, smiling. He ran over to her.

Sana turned around. She smiled warily at Naosumi. "Hi."

"Ehh? Is something worng?" Naozumi asked, concerned.

"It's...it's nothing..." Sana sniffed, trying to hold back tears.

"S-Sana? What is it?"

"H-Hayama broke up with me!" she sobbed.

"...Sana..." Naozumi said nothing, but embraced her.

I looked up at the sky today,

It looked the way I felt,

The clouds were swirling everywhere,

Clouds of doubt,

Clouds of uncertainty,

Clouds of anger,

Clouds of thought...

Hayama slowly walked to school. He stared up at the sky. It was really foggy. He felt so tierd. He had cried himself to
sleep.

Hayama sighed.

'What I did...was for Sana...right...?' He thought. 'It was...for her own good...I didn't deserve her...'

Hayama stuffed his hands into his pockets. "Hmph."

'For her...for her...' he thought, trying to convince himself it was true.
______________________________

Some places were very clear without a cloud in sight,

Other places were so obscured you could barely see the light...

The sky is ominous...dark and grey...

Looks like it's gonna be a bad day...

...seconds...minutes...hours go by...

The sun is low, and clouds gather...

The sky is darkened...
______________________________

Hayama said nothing as little drops fell on his face. He hated the rain. Yet, he also didn't mind. At least not today.

He slowly turned the corner, and spotted Naozumi and Sana.

"..." Hayama felt his heart break again. Slowly...slowly...shattering...

He slowly turned around and walk away. Back torward his house. It was raining pretty hard now.

A tear escaped from his eye. And then another one...and another...

He suddenly stopped, as he realized something.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sana slowly pushed Naozumi away from her. "Thank you, Naozumi..."

"Sana...I didn't do anything..." Naozumi began. The rain surrounded them, but they didn't notice.

"I know..." Sana sighed.

"Sana...You know...that I still love you..."

"..."

They stared at each other in the rain for a while.

"I'm sorry, Naozumi...you know...that I still love Hayama..."

"Yes...I do..."

______________________________

How could such a normal day turn into such a failure?

As I realize my loss...

Drops of rain fall onto my face...

As my tears mingle with the rain...

I think back...of times now gone...

Times...I cannot bring back again...

Times I cannot have...once more...

They are gone...

...dead...

...to me...

...Only merely a fantasy...

...I cannot force my heart to choose...

...My heart is cold...frozen...

...I have done this to myself...so it will not be broken...

...I am a fool...

...Love is more powerful than a frozen heart...
______________________________

"It wasn't for her..." he said out loud to himself. He stood out in the middle of the street.

Hayama looked up into the sky. "I did this...I was afraid of being hurt..."

Rain poured down on him, as he bowed his head, crying. "I'm a fool..."

All of his clothes was soaked. "I'm sorry...Sana..."
