And just like this,
we stayed there,
playing and laughing together--
completely carefree and unaware of the time that passed.

Shuu was in the midst of a wrestling match with Kame and Jun

when Jun suddenly stopped in place. 

                   "Hey."

His gaze was directed towards something once again.

The rest of us looked at him curiously.

"What's wrong?" I asked,

but then...

We found the answer to our questions right away.

There, 

just below the clouds to where the mountains and the sky intersected,
the sun, ready to rest from a hard day's work,
made its way gradually down the horizon,
painting the sky in different shades of rouge.
We were pretty high up in the mountains,
so it was almost like we were at eye-level with the sun.

It was truly a marvelous sight to behold.
