<9999> Bokura no Asa
<0000> \{Kyousuke}"All of us, once again... Let's go on a field trip."
<0001> Kyousuke's words.
<0002> Those words that came so suddenly, making me feel so happy\rI could cry.
<0003> Those words that contained such immeasurable strength.
<0004> They told me that everything had returned.
<0005> That I could always continue to live on amongst those words.
<0006> That is what I believed.
<0007> Wind blew into the station wagon from the half-opened window.
<0008> The cool autumn breeze felt comfortable on my long-sleeved\rarms.
<0009> \{Masato}"Heeh, heeh..."
<0010> \{Kengo}"Haah, haah..."
<0011> If Masato and Kengo weren't in the back sweating profusely and gasping for breath, it would surely have been a very\rrefreshing drive.
<0012> For some reason the two had decided to ride on the roof of the car, and after a bump in the road splendidly shook them off, \rthey ended up chasing after the car as it drove off.
<0013> Safe driving aside, it was hard to believe that those two had\rsuffered hardly a scratch after falling off at that speed, \rand then even managed to catch up with the car while running.
<0014> ...Inside the car to our "field trip."
<0015> As Kyousuke suggested, it was a special trip just for our\rgroup.
<0016> \{Rin}"You two are annoying! It's all stuffy in here now, idiots!"
<0017> Rin showered icy words on the two still gasping for air.
<0018> \{Masato}"Ah? Even, if you, say that... What are we, supposed to do, in\rthis cramped car..."
<0019> Masato replied between each breath he took.
<0020> \{Rin}"First of all, stop breathing."
<0021> \{Masato}"I'll die!! Muscles need oxygen, you know?!"
<0022> \{Komari}"Here, have some cold and sweet afternoon tea～"
<0023> Komari-san held a paper cup filled with black tea out to\rMasato.
<0024> \{Masato}"Ooh, thanks."
<0025> \{Komari}"Have some too, Kengo-kun～"
<0026> \{Kengo}"My sincerest thanks."
<0027> He respectfully accepted it.
<0028> \{Komari}"Would you like some too, Kyousuke-san, Riki-kun?"
<0029> She asked to Kyousuke in the driver's seat.
<0030> \{Kyousuke}"Sure, just place it over there."
<0031> He answered without looking away from the road.
<0032> \{Riki}"Make that two."
<0033> \{Komari}"Okay, got it～"
<0034> Of course, since Kyousuke had just gotten his driver's license, he couldn't afford to spare us much attention.
<0035> ...That said, though I don't have any driving experience, \rKyousuke seemed to be managing it safe and sound from what my untrained eyes could tell.
<0036> As long as he knew how to drive it, I think Kyousuke could\rhandle any vehicle with ease.
<0037> \{Haruka}"The beach, the beach, the beach beach beeaach!♪"
<0038> Haruka began singing while she looked at the map.\rShe sounded more excited every time she sang "beach."
<0039> \{Nishizono}"You're making a ruckus."
<0040> Nishizono-san jabbed at her.
<0041> \{Haruka}"But this is my first time going to the beach!"
<0042> \{Nishizono}"Please don't get so excited that you jump into the ocean in\rthis weather."
<0043> \{Haruka}"We're gonna check out the horizon of sea and horizon of land with a bam!"
<0044> \{Nishizono}"We're not going to see the land horizon."
<0045> \{Haruka}"Eh?! I even bought a kickboard!!"
<0046> \{Riki}"You won't get my sympathy if you catch a cold...\rBut are you a novice at swimming, Haruka-san...?"
<0047> \{Kud}"Gaan?! Y, you can't swim～?"
<0048> \{Riki}"Well, it's already too cold to anyway..."
<0049> \{Kud}"Aww, Japan's beaches close so early..."
<0050> \{Komari}"Let's go again in the summer, Kuu-chan."
<0051> Komari-san comforted Kud with a "there, there."
<0052> \{Masato}"Alright, we've got free time so let's play something."
<0053> \{Kurugaya}"Then how about 'Muscles Shiritori'?\rIt's a game of shiritori, but restricted to the names of\rmuscles."
<0054> \{Masato}"Oh, good suggestion, Miss Kurugaya! We'll have our match with\rthat."
<0055> \{Kengo}"Hahaha, that sounds fun. Let me in too."
<0056> \{Masato}"Okay, it's a three-way battle."
<0057> \{Kurugaya}"We'll go clockwise starting with Kengo boy. Begin with\r'shiritori'."
<0058> \{Kengo}"Ri... ri... muscles starting with 'ri'..."
<0059> Silence.
<0060> \{Kengo}"Ri, ri..."
<0061> \{Kurugaya}"Time's up."
<0062> \{Kengo}"What the hell could I have come up with?!"
<0063> \{Riki}"A killer pass from the beginning, what a game..."
<0064> \{Masato}"If it were me... heh, there's no such thing as a killer pass\rfor me. This is my home field..."
<0065> \{Masato}"If there were two of me, we could discuss muscles for three\rdays and nights nonstop!"
<0066> \{Rin}"That's creepy!"
<0067> Indeed, I don't even want to imagine two Masatos talking to\reach other about muscles.
<0068> \{Masato}"Now then, my turn!! 'Rhomboid muscles' (ryoukeikin)!"
<0069> \{Kurugaya}"That ends in 'n'."
<0070> \{Masato}"Uwooooooh!! Now that I think about it, every muscle ends in\r'kin'!!\r\rThe thought of listing out all the different names of muscles was so enticing that I didn't even notice!!"
<0071> \{Rin}"You're all idiots!"
<0072> Kurugaya-san won the moment she proposed the match...
<0073> \{Masato}"Then why don't I just add 'niku' after 'kin'?!"
<0074> \{Kengo}"You're a genius!"
<0075> I put the clamor behind me and turned to speak with Kyousuke.
<0076> \{Riki}"It's the same as always, huh?"
<0077> \{Kyousuke}"Yeah. Nothing's changed at all."
<0078> \{Riki}"...Yeah."
<0079> Our fun, unchanging everyday life.
<0080> This field trip is just another part of that.
<0081> Yet what are these doubts that I hold?
<0082> I looked at Kyousuke's profile.
<0083> At his eyes that looked straight forward no matter what.
<0084> The car suddenly stopped due to a traffic light.
<0085> Perhaps because he noticed my gaze, Kyousuke turned to look at me.
<0086> \{Kyousuke}"......"
<0087> And then, he softly laughed...\rAs if he was telling me that there was nothing to worry about.
<0088> He turned forward again and accelerated the car.
<0089> \{Kyousuke}"Oh!"
<0090> Kyousuke raised his voice.
<0091> \{Kyousuke}"You can see it, guys."
<0092> \{Masato}"Nn? See what?"
<0093> \{Kyousuke}"The ocean."
<0094> Kyousuke pointed with his chin.
<0095> \{Haruka}"Oooh! We're here!"
<0096> \{Komari}"Wa～!"
<0097> Everyone looked out the window together.
<0098> A clear sky projected onto a deep blue sea.
<0099> Of course no one was swimming because it was out of season\rbut some people were walking along the shore, leaving\rfootprints in the sand.
<0100> The wind blowing in from the window carried a light salty\rscent.
<0101> ...While staring at that glistening sea, I did nothing\rbut smile fondly.
