Snow
Risa Harada smiled as she looked at the sky. She giggled and twirled around, enjoying the cool atmosphere.
"Harada-san... what are you doing?"
"Don't talk to me like I'm stupid," Risa teased, sticking out her tongue at her companion.
Satoshi Hiwatari sighed, rolling his eyes. "I don't see why you enjoy this weather so much. It's so cold and dreary."
"Like you?" Risa laughed at her joke, but Satoshi gave her a glare of annoyance. "Hiwatari-kun, it's snow! Do you know how rare it is? I mean... sure, when there's too much of it, you get all sad and mellow, but we never really have too much of it. In fact... we always have to little of it!"
Satoshi paused, still not getting it. "So?"
"So?" Risa repeated, incredulous. "Hiwatari-kun!" She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, letting the ice crystals fall onto her hair. "When the first snow comes, I'm happy because... because it's like an old friend that I haven't seen in a while. I savor it because I'm afraid it won't come back for a long time. To me, snow is special because I don't get to see it much." She opened her eyes and smiled sadly at her friend. "Kind of like you talking to me."
Satoshi blinked, his eyebrows raising in surprise. He regained his emotionless expression soon enough and cleared his throat. "Baka... snow comes more than once in a year."
"Baka? You're baka!"
The conversation went back to it's relaxed state, seeing as how Satoshi decided to walk Risa home that day.
