19 It happens in seconds.
An angry spirit, a streak of misfortune, a broken bridge.
Doumeki sees the choice before him and knows there wasn't one to begin with.
There was only one time he wasn’t able to catch Watanuki.
One hand desperately grabs for the thin wrist, the other on the remains of the guard rail. Contact, the rough pull of skin on skin, his bones creak. Watanuki is screaming like a wounded animal in his grip; Doumeki closes his eyes.
Himawari was looking up at him with a sad smile as she fell.
