-Ohayo-





 
“Ohayo.”

An old man says.

“Good morning, man.”
A stranger returns his greeting to the old man.

“Ii otenki desune”
The old man breaks into a broad grin.


“Yeah, it is very good weather.”
The stranger gazes at the sky.

“Ashita mo hareruto iidesune.”
The old man pulls at his white mustache.

“Haha, I bet it will be fine tomorrow, too.”
The stranger says so and stretches his arms a little farther.

“Ashita mo iihi ni narisou desu.”
The old man takes a slow and deep breath.

“Right, we will have another good day, man.”
The stranger catches one of the clouds and tosses it into his mouth.

“Onaka ga suite kimashita.”
The old man rubs his tummy.

“Oh, I’m sorry. You are hungry, too? Are you leaving then?”
The stranger asks the old man gently.

“Hai. Mata aimashou.”
The old man says so and starts to move backward again.

“OK, see you then.”
The old man's new friend sleeps 'til the next meeting comes.
