A Second Chance
I stood there for a minute or two, staring at the spot where Michael had disappeared. When I snapped out of my daze, I realized I was in front of the park entrance. Impulse drove into the cool embrace of the trees. Strolling leisurely amongst the ancient lords, I breathed in the crisp, fresh air, sighing in calm bliss.
As I neared the park's fountain, I spotted a black-clad couple sitting together at the fountain's edge. One look at the woman's hairstyle told me who they were.
Enter,
into Dream's cool embrace
Your dormant mind he shall
encase
Telling you neither truth nor lie
Showing you enough to
cry
"Robin! Amon!" I called, jogging up to them.
Robin looked up in surprise, then smiled.
"Oh, hello, Karasuma," she greeted warmly.
Amon grunted a hello; he didn't seem to have the energy to do much at the moment.
"Hello to you too, Amon," I laughed, echoing what Michael had said earlier. Smiling, I asked, "How have you two been?"
"Very fine, thank you," Robin replied. "Amon's just feeling a bit down today. I'm just here to cheer him up."
"Alright, have fun. And smile for her, Amon!" I said, waving as I walked off. "Bye!"
"Haruto's looking for you," Amon grunted. "I met him as he was going to Harry's."
"Oh. Okay. Thanks!" I replied, and set off in the direction of the café.
