"Okay, now that we have everything planned out, we should mark off sections."
He pulled out a ball of twine, and some small sticks.

"Okay." She reached her hand out. "If you give me some twine and a stick, I can go one way, and you the other."

Ginseku rolled out twine, doing The same. The sun set just as he finished his last line.

"There! All done." She looked out at the setting sun, remembering all the suns she had seen set up on the mountain tops.

"Thats what people use on sliding doors. Its extremely weatherproof, and water and mud slide right off of it. It insulates very well. You could be in the dead of winter and it would insulate perfectly."
Ginseku smiled, knowing that bit of knowledge.

Sayuri laughed to herself. She should have known that. "Well then. Since we're done and we're not doing anything until tomorrow, then I think I will see you then. I am going to sit by the ocean's edge. Listen to the wind and waves battle each other." Sayuri began to walk towards the water's edge.

"Alright then, Ill just sit here. meet back tommorrow morning."
Ginseku walked over to the edge of the hill that they had been building on, which dropped off and became a cliff. He sat not too far from the edge, And Watched Sayuri sit. The were little glints of light around him; fireflies were coming out. The last suns light shone slightly around the edge of the horizon, just barely providing enough light to walk home if you were out. He closed his eyes, listening to the symphony of the night; the crickets chirping, birds calling, waves crashing, winds blowing, everything. It was all so peaceful.

Sayuri made her way to the edge. She had always felt so connected with water and wind. It always seemed like the spirit world was talking to her. Whenever she was troubled, she just listened to the wind for advice and guidance. It was like her mother was watching over her and showing her the path to follow by using the wind. Sayuri stood quietly. After a few moments, she waded into the water. She felt an urge to dive deep down and swim. She didn't care about her clothes getting wet, they would eventually dry. She dove under a wave and then swam out far enough that she wouldn't have to deal with the waves.

Ginseku Felt a wind, Then leaned back into it once more. He rose, without thinking about it. He moved to the edge of the cliff, then jumped off. He felt like he had wings, like he could fly. Miraculously enough, The updrafts from the water against the surface of the rocks was enough to keep ginseku afloat in midair.

Some time had passed and Sayuri felt the need to go in, that way her clothes would have time to dry a bit. She used the waves to push herself in. When she reached the shoreline, Sayuri collapsed down into the sand. She turned onto her back and lay there looking up as the stars came out from hiding.

Ginseku slowly landed on his feet, then leaned back against the cliffside. the wind had calmed. he watched the stars, then closed his eyes. it was so peaceful. He slowly slipped into slumber. Suddenly, it was warm. Ginseku opened his eyes, to find that the sun was now shining birghtly. The clouds from the day before had cleared. he sat up. and yawned. he looked around. Sayuri wasnt anywhere in sight. He stood up, dusting himself off. And he began to search for her along the coastline.
