That summer, the trees in the forest were lush and lush, and the hot sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, dappled on the grass.
There was a 6-year-old girl crouching helplessly on the ground crying, and she got lost in the forest inhabited by mountain gods and monsters. At this time, a masked, high school student-like teenager asked the crying little girl not far away, and they each held one end of the branch in parallel, and the teenager sent the little girl out of the forest.
The girl's name is Hotaru, she is a human, and the teenager is called Silver, a being who disappears when touched by a human. They met that summer and began to meet every summer that followed.
Out of the curiosity of a child, Hotaru wants to touch the silver. Each time, while Silver took a nap, Hotaru removed his mask. When the face that was no different from that of a human person came into view, a seed was planted in the heart of The Firefly's ignorant youth. She wanted to spend summer after summer with the teenager in front of her.
Fearing that silver would disappear, Hotaru began to restrain her urge to touch silver. When Firefly fell from the tree, Silver subconsciously ran over and reached out to catch her, and in the instant when she was about to approach, Silver stopped. Hotaru cried and said, let Silver not touch her under any circumstances. Hotaru always sees silver, even if it can't be touched, even if it's only in the summer.
The first contact, but also the final embrace. Silver grabbed the little human boy who mistakenly thought it was a monster, and his body turned into a little firework and began to disappear, And Hotaru smiled and ran to Silver, hugging him hard, and the smiling Silver was fleeting. Wearing the mask left by silver, Hotaru ends the summer by crying, losing the summer of silver forever.
We lamented the disappearance of silver, hoping that the little boy who had been touched by silver did not appear. Because the present moment is so beautiful, we cannot bear to accept the destruction of beauty. However, this kind of beauty only occurs in the short summer, and it cannot always maintain the original beautiful appearance.
There is a saying in the "Natsume Friends' Account", "The life of human beings is very short, too short to be sighed." The human lifespan is like a firefly in the eyes of the youkai, a short lifelong effort to shine and then die.
In the face of the monsters that have lived for thousands of years, the short decades of human beings may not even be a single episode, but a beautiful note.
Even if silver is not touched by humans, it has a short time with the company of the firefly, and it will take a longer time to bear the loneliness and nostalgia without the firefly.
In the last summer, Hotaru, who had gone to high school, planned to graduate and work here in three years, and silver could be seen in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
But in the winter when she held hands with others, the thought of silver and the desire to touch silver could not be hidden. If the beloved person is facing him day and night, but he cannot hold hands, cannot hug, and can never feel the touch and temperature of his body, how cruel and tormented.
I felt sorry for Silver's disappearance, and I understood the pain of losing the person I loved, but I thought about it and couldn't think of a better outcome than the two happily embracing each other before Silver disappeared.
Firefly, you can forget me. Because silver is so fragile that it can be maintained by magic, it will disappear as long as it touches the skin of humans.
Silver, don't forget me, don't forget me. One day we will be separated by time, and even so, until that moment, let's all be together.
Hotaru, I can't wait for summer anymore. Once separated, I want to see you even when I get out of the crowd.
The two gradually convey their hearts to each other in the summer they have agreed upon. Before the accident, Silver took off his mask and put it on Hotaru's face and kissed her through the mask.
I like you.
Well, me too.
"I must not be able to look forward to the arrival of summer from the bottom of my heart for a while." Hotaru's anticipation and joy for summer also disappeared along with silver. But in the summer that followed, Hotaru was still the same as before, and in the summer, she went to her grandfather's house. "But the temperature that remains in my hand, and the memories of summer, will surely be with me."
Along with Silver, it is the treasure of Hotaru's youth, and she faces the rest of her life with precious memories and the heart that first met Silver. #翻滚吧动漫君 #
