The light hit US… okay I mean just me, the second the door gave out— not gradually, just all at once, bright enough that I actually flinched before my eyes adjusted.
Jisoo popped her head out from behind my shoulder, blinking against it too.
Now it's US.
I raised both hands to shield my face from the sunlight and walked forward, toward the edge of the roof, and looked up.
The sky above wasn't quite right, it is in the best possible way. Clouds drifted thin and scattered, not enough to cover anything, just enough to give the light blue color something above.
And the color of the sky itself was wrong too— too saturated, too light, like someone had turned the color up past what a normal sky should be capable of. It's beautiful.
I found the sun first, sitting low near one edge of the horizon, gold and ordinary enough. Then I looked further across and found a moon. Pale, faint against the daylight blue.
Then I found the second one.
