Day 68: Greenhouse
By the time lunch ended, the gloomy weather had become a raging storm. Soushi held his coat tightly as they were separated once again, and followed his guide to the outdoor greenhouse. Luckily, the temperature changed and balanced out nicely once they were inside and he shook himself free of the coat.
The greenery was a welcome change, but it was hard to appreciate it when every passing moment only filled him with more worry. While he had obtained a great deal more information today than in his first day in the institution, he was still no closer to finding Ririchiyo or a means of escape. There was a dull ache in his chest that had nothing to do with any physical ailment and everything to do with her absence.
An audible sigh escaped his lips as he picked up a small trowel and gloves and took to the nearby plants, attempting to distract himself and failing miserably.

"... Yeah," the boy agreed after a moment. "If we stop here, nothing will ever change."
That was more than enough reason to keep going. There was no point in constantly looking back or letting himself get dragged under. Everyone had a part they could play. If they could all persevere and learn to help each other, there were a lot of things they were capable of. ... It wasn't as simple as kindness. That was just the sort of strength he had to demand from himself.
But it looked like he wouldn't be able to linger on that thought for too long, as the nurses were slowly beginning to round people up. That was fine by him, since for once, there was actually something to show for his time.
