Summary
Koutarou doubts he would have the guts to venture down to the rocks alone. He knows that the ocean eats people at night, silently, effortlessly. Swallowed by the pitch black waves that lap rhythmically upon the rocks. He knows his father mounts that fear every day. He is not so brave.

Koutarou is not guilty of his secrets.

The salty ocean spray.
A pair of inky eyes.And when he comes back to his old family home — to the beach — he remembers.
