Uesugi Sakura recognized the undertone in Hanamaru Hanabi's smiling face and her violet eyes.
"How about going to see the flowers? I saw online that the wisteria in Tochigi Prefecture bloomed for the second time this year."
"Sure."
"Then it's settled." Uesugi Sakura extended her pinky finger to her.
Hanamaru Hanabi looked at him, extended her pinky finger and hooked onto his, as their fingers tightly intertwined.
Standing in front of the train platform, Uesugi Sakura lowered her waving hand, watching the train carrying Hanabi depart.
As the train cars went farther, a tailwind blew in her face, the clattering sound of the rails lingering in her ears, gradually fading into the distance, surrounded by people looking at their phones, waiting for the next train.
To meet like this from childhood among so many people, it's truly lucky.
Uesugi Sakura withdrew her gaze from the distant city and left the station.
