Akira remembers when Tae told him that she had a teenage dream.

“One day I wanna go to a road trip where no one knows me. Like, you know, going wherever the fun is. Watch starry skies. Sleeps in motels. Go to festivals. Being wild and all that.”

Then he remembers asking, “Why haven’t you done it?”

She said, “I have responsibilities as an adult you know. Easy for a minor to say.”

He smirked. “After this minor graduates then. Wanna go?”

“…You serious?”

“I’m serious. I’m planning to take a year off before uni. I’ll save up, you choose where we’re going, we buy the plane tickets, rent a car, done.”

Then the image of her laughing flashes before his eyes. An amused one it was. “Ahahaha! You never fail to amuse me, Akira.”

And here they are, 2 years later, going on a trip of their lifetime, singing her favorite song.
