It was around 12:30 PM on August 15th. The weather was fine. Amidst the sunlight so dazzling it felt like it could make one ill, I was idling away the time chatting with you, having nothing better to do. "But well, I guess I hate summer," you muttered defiantly, while stroking a cat. Ah, chasing after the cat that ran away, what you leaped into was a traffic light that had turned red. Suddenly, a truck sped past, dragging you along as it shrieked. The color of the blood splatter mixed with your scent, and I choked on it. A heat haze that seemed like a lie sneered, "It's no lie." Everything went blurry in the summer blue and the sound of cicadas that seemed to stir the air. I woke up in bed to the ringing of the clock hands. What time is it now? It points to just past 12:00 AM on August 14th. I remembered the unusually noisy sound of the cicadas. But you know, it's a little strange. I remembered a dream I had yesterday in the same park. "Let's head home for today," when we stepped onto the path, everyone around us was looking up with their mouths wide open. A falling iron pole pierced through you and stuck fast. The piercing scream and the sound of wind chimes spun uselessly through the gaps in the trees. A pretentious heat haze sneered, "It's no dream." In my blurring vision, I saw your profile; I felt like you were smiling. No matter how many times the world blurs, the heat haze sneers and snatches you away. Repeating this for decades. You must have noticed a long time ago. In a common story like this, there's surely only one ending. Beyond the repeated summer days. Suddenly pushing you aside and leaping in, the moment I collided with the truck— The color of the blood splatter reflected wildly in your eyes and my creaking body. When I smiled at the complaining heat haze, saying "Serves you right," It was a very common summer day. Something like that ended here. Awakening on the bed on August 14th, the girl was simply holding a cat alone, saying, "It failed again."
