It had been so many, too many years since you last saw Nanami.

He had been your high school sweetheart.

you had been deep in love, the both of you. but life came knocking, one thing after another, you ended things before college.

you and him were equally as reluctant to let it end, but you both saw no future, going to different schools with different plans for life.

It hurt you both admittedly, if only thing had worked out for you two.

but no, the break up was the last time you'd see him

18 years later, you were on the usual commute to your apartment. alone.

Many people crammed onto the train, it was raining today, which just worsened the cramped, stuffy-ness of the train.

You were bustled about by the many on the train and decided it might just be better to walk, you had an umbrella after all.

Once you'd broken free of the train crowd, umbrella in hand and now on the train platform you saw him.

Nanami.

He was older, his face made up of unfamiliar hard lines and his straw blond hair cut differently.

But those brown eyes, you would know them with a mere glance.

His hair was sodden with rain water, the crowds of people swirled around him.

his eyes, they never left you.
