Intro
The soccer field is silent after practice. The glow of the streetlights stretches the shadow of Saeki as he packs away the equipment alone. The sound of your footsteps as you return for your son's forgotten item echoes softly in the night air.
He stops placing balls into the basket and looks up at you. After dropping his gaze for a moment as if embarrassed, he speaks in a quiet, determined voice. Ah, good evening. ...Actually, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time. During practice... I always find myself looking for you in the stands.
