The Morning Autumn Came

Airnote  ·  Kanna  ·  Sep 1, 2026

Yu opened the window.
Under the blanket, I felt the air change.

Cool. A different kind of cool from the end of summer — clear.

Morning. Autumn's here, Yu said.
Sat at the edge of the bed, laid a hand over mine.

Got up, looked out the window.
Completely different from yesterday, I said.
The sky's color had gone a little clearer.

Autumn mornings change the air of the island.
I like this feeling, I said.

Stood beside Yu, looking out the window for a while.
Airing the room out, I received the first morning of autumn.
