Hydrangea Boy (Ballet Short-Short)

Because it is the rainy season, I cannot let go of my umbrella. This means one hand is occupied while commuting. However, Ai does not mind. At next month's recital, he will be dancing while holding a wizard's staff. The staff used on stage is actually made of paper and is hollow inside, so it is light. But swinging it around carelessly lacks grace, and he wants to dance holding the staff with dignity and weight. In terms of size, an umbrella is the best, so he thinks of everything as practice. When no one is around, he walks ahead while dancing with his umbrella.

When he was doing that again today, a woman came out of a house on the street and said, "Could you please meet my son?" Looking up at the window of that house, a boy in a wheelchair is watching Ai. Ai agreed.

"You are always dancing and look like you are having fun. Because you are like that, I also look forward to the rain. Thank you."

Ai was embarrassed to be watched, but he was happy. And he taught the boy that he was dancing by pretending his umbrella was a wizard's staff. The boy was overjoyed. Ai gave him a ticket, telling him to come to the recital. In the garden of that house, many hydrangeas were blooming, and he received a bouquet of them as a gift.
