[team one] Sky Blue

I missed writing Nisen.




The television show had already ended, but Nikaido left the TV on, allowing the colourful sequence of commercials to fill the air with its empty noise. Nikaido grabbed the remote control and started switching the channels without actually paying any attention to the screen.

Outside the sky was still grey. Rain was prickling the windows with its cold needles that melted into a web of rivulets on the glass. Nikaido sighed, realizing how oppressing was the burden of loneliness and boredom, especially during his day off.

His family was away for an onsen trip, and he hadn’t been invited because “we thought you had work, you rarely get a day off these days”. All his attempts to see his friends failed as well, since they all had work or lessons or who know what else. In the end, he decided to stay home and just relax, doing nothing more demanding than watch television all day.

Nikaido could barely stand the boredom, but the loneliness was too much, especially when the atmosphere outside was so dull and oppressing.

He brought his knees to his chest and wrapped his arms around them, burying his face on the soft fabric of his tracksuit. His feet were starting to feel cold, even if the air wasn’t chill at all since it seemed like summer hadn’t passed the baton to autumn yet, despite the rain. The humdrum sound of the drops outside was punching his ears and he realized he had just wasted his day off sitting grumpily on a sofa. As soon as he wished for something – anything – to happen, his phone started vibrating on the table.

“Kenpi?” Nikaido said, loud as usual, as he picked up the call.

“Hey, what are you doing? Enjoying the weather?”

“No, I’m just resting at home. Nothing interesting to do outside. And you? Don’t you have your butai today?”

“Yes, it’s about to start.”

“Then why are you calling me?! Go and get ready, you idiot!”

“I just wanted to hear your voice. I dreamt that you were calling out my name because you felt lonely. You know, with your family away and no work to do today, I thought the dream might be real.”

Nikaido clutched his phone more tightly with both hands.

“So, you are fine, right? Just relaxing,” Senga asked, he could feel something was wrong in the other’s silence.

“It’s a bit boring, all this stupid rain.”

“Listen, can I come over later? I know we both have work tomorrow, but your family is away and I don’t want to waste the chance.”

“Kenpi~” Nikaido whimpered, his voice had a not so subtle tone of both relief and elation.

“I promise you won’t be bored~”

“Okay, I’ll come and pick you up near the theatre when you finish.”

“What? There’s no need. You hate going out in the rain, right?”

But Nikaido didn’t care about the rain anymore. He was feeling like he had found his own corner of blue sky where the weather was serene and the air smelt like spring.
