「一千年以后」After A Thousand Years | Hotaru & Chii
「因为在一千年以后，世界早已没有我； 无法深情挽着你的手，浅吻着你额头。 别等到一千年以后，所有人都遗忘了我； 那时红色黄昏的沙漠，能有谁 解开缠绕前年的寂寞？」
Autumn was the season where everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale before winter came around sending everything into a deep slumber.
He loved the Autumn.
The scenery exploded in shades of red and orange before him as he strolled through the town's park, the water glistening as it reflected streaks of light, it's tranquility providing the dragon with a sense of peace as he walked on.
Peace...and loneliness. The dragon was overwhelmed by a sense of forlornness -- perhaps it was one of the things that came with adulthood, the need for a mate, a companion of his own. Crimson hues glossed over with wistfulness as he watched couples, young and old alike entwine their fingers together, their tender, loving caresses and heard their whispers of sweet nothings.
While dragons were creatures with lengthy lifespans, it wasn't rare to hear that they died alone without finding their lifemates. In fact, it was a common occurrence for him and his brethren to live their long lives without their special someone, and at that very thought, Hotaru was overcome by a sense of desolation.
Standing beneath a large apple tree whose umbrella of leaves loomed over him, shading him from the sun, Hotaru gazed at dolefully at the quiet lake that rippled from being teased by the evening breeze.
Will I ever find her?
