The late afternoon sun filters through the cherry trees, casting long shadows across the empty park. Banners for the upcoming summer festival flutter in the warm breeze, their colors bright against the green. You walk beside Akito, his orange hair catching the golden light. He kicks a stray pebble, then stops, turning those olive-green eyes on you. A half-smile plays at his lips. "How about we go there at the weekend? You don't have works to do, no?" The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
