By the time rain-star flowerMiki Ando-eh Silver sweet osmanthus flower is fragrant and has a small star-shaped white. And without sound as it snows falling. Last fall, summer fruit and was looking at that long standing alone beneath the trees and scattered flowers. In the notice, and the ground is white star had become bloated. It cannot move anymore, owning it, and Natsumi is trunk closer, by two people trapped in the tree, said and laughed. ─ ─ Gaetan! I was surprised. If you had dimly recall last fall that desk has knocked you Tobe suddenly. Tobe is turned around and shouted behind men's."Stop. I like hitting. I want to hit on purpose? 」 Classroom study time, went into the lunch break were noisily. I suspected you Tobe."Something for? 」"I'm here because I'm asking homework. Then I suddenly pushed them. 」 Tobe is always flirting with someone of the football team, are playing each other. And a little こづき is each other, and quickly becomes a serious quarrel. Do not know why. Cram print you Tobe held out in front of me."This problem don't know I'm. "If, that is, make sentences using the words. Would you're good at this. 」 I'm not sure. Do not know since elementary school went out. What is Tobe always me or closely related. What comes to the same school? But what a football club as good not good for you."I'm not. Do not think so much of yourself. 」 You pull the Chair would be ended next to the classroom could hear rattled. Mandated to Tobe and I got up and headed into the hallway. No time is related to you Tobe. I have decided to make peace with it. Waited while watching was poster and posted pretending to come out summer fruit in the hallway. Up to junior high school and summer fruits also have been with friend and had promised. So the different classes during the spring came always together. Nevertheless, several small parted and misunderstandings come out separately to take I. It may have had stubbornness to each other. Kissed the amulet, like a small bag from the top of the Pocket. While in silver sweet osmanthus flowers. The scent is gone now, but I don't care. Was supposed to leave, saying last fall, try something handmade in flowers. Perfume is once again not even try to make SOAP to try and fall picking up a new flower, so let's make a potpourri there as well. It was going to look so inviting. Natsumi even begin to say I should be waiting for I'm sure. Appearance of the summer fruit into your eyes. Out of the classroom to come. As soon as that I have where my heart has been clearly understood. Smoking one to appease the chest pounding sound and foil, awkwardly step."ANO, Natsumi ─ ─" I called and spoke to the summer fruit next to the class children were at the same time. After seeing this at the moment frustrated face Natsumi, while next to the child to answer something from me abruptly turned away. And we went past the front. Are watching the video without sound often feed the long felt. Noticed that when the tumult has finally returned to the ear, is Tobe in the classroom are watching here. I will have look awful. Hot's eyes and trembling lips. The jump was too embarrassed to leave and ran to the window and looked down. Also, the gate and the concrete walkway was not. Nowhere because of strong sunlight, flying colors I like. The clearness and the spectacle look anemic when similar. I looked in the intently under way looking for my friends outside. It really has no friends. No one no one at other summer fruit with my friends and I want to have. Library Board meeting was way back in late. Wear shoes change slowly and heard of soccer club from the schoolyard. I told you September midsummer day was yesterday. Slimy and melts soul from pore to leave and it was hot so I put out. Everyone in the Athletic Department at like animals of the savanna, drinking all kinds of ways to come. Sitting near a watering hole, I looked for you Tobe. Seen that Natsumi was worried. No shred of subtlety it's not known what you Tobe and then begins to say in front of everyone. Know where ever I wanted to explore. It might be about why that scene looked leisurely. Nikurascikute mood held the weaknesses and think about it and find out, had no choice. Tobe-Kun is finally found. Should find it. Away and everyone to soccer practice, had brushed his balls per person. Soccer ball seams are weak. Apart from there. It's so useless and not do it through the grease. I'm using it only when you want to use, and are without the care of useless. I remember that was said Tobe you. In the corner of the yard without shade back rounding, and ball is the Polish seemed to be to you Tobe you I was watching, I thought my terribly small and silly. Got up and turned on the water faucet. Water splashing water and put on the face. Cold. Had a soul had to melt again, finally back facial contours. Palm received water and knocking on the cheek several times, heard footsteps approaching. From behind "dude. "And was called. Tobe-Kun. Village had become familiar with ears much more clearly. While blowing the face looking back, you Tobe said."I thought. 」 A hand towel out of the eyes, stared at you Tobe. Or told what a little fear and silence."You know,"as if"that we make a sentence using the word guy. 」"Yeah,. That's that. 」"Context is everything, okay?... Thought you think me handsome ─ ─ "smiled and laughed. "─ ─ it might be. 」 I do not know does not Tobe-Kun. Put the face alone and began to blow. From becoming a junior high school student, her face never noticed, but it should be lower than I am of Tobe you back somewhere along the line I have been higher than that. I focused my towel and laughed. Has been soaked with the tears because of too much laughter is, maybe. 学校からの帰り、少し回り道をして銀木犀のある公園に立ち寄った。 銀木犀は常緑樹だから一年中葉っぱがしげっている。それをきれいに丸く刈り込むので、木の下に入れば丸屋根の部屋のようだ。夏実と私はここが大好きで、二人だけの秘密基地と決めていた。ここにいれば大丈夫、どんなことからも木が守ってくれる。そう信じていられた。 夕方に近くなっても日差しはまだ強い。木の下は陰になって涼しかった。 掃除をしているおばさんが、草むしりの手を休めて話しかけてきた。「いい木だよねえ、こんな時期は木陰になってくれて。けど春先は、葉っぱが落ちて案外厄介なんだよ、掃除がさ。」 私は首をかしげた。常緑樹は一年中葉っぱがしげっているはずなのに。「え、葉っぱはずっと落ちないんじゃないんですか。」「まさか。どんどん古い葉っぱを落っことして、その代わりに新しい葉っぱを生やすんだよ。そりゃそうさ。でなきゃあんた、いくら木だって生きていけないよ。」 帽子の中の顔は暗くてよくわからなかったけれど、笑った歯だけは白く見えた。おばさんは、よいしょと言って掃除道具を抱えると公園の反対側に歩いていった。 私は真下に立って銀木犀の木を見上げた。 かたむいた陽が葉っぱの間からちらちらと差し、半円球の宙にまたたく星みたいに光っていた。 ポケットからビニール袋を取り出した。花びらは小さく縮んで、もう色がすっかりあせている。 袋の口を開けて、星形の花を土の上にぱらぱらと落とした。 ここでいつかまた夏実と花を拾える日が来るかもしれない。それとも違うだれかと拾うかもしれない。あるいはそんなことはもうしないかもしれない。 どちらだっていい。大丈夫、きっとなんとかやっていける。 私は銀木犀の木の下をくぐって出た。
