All Chapters of Memoir of Summer: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

Chapter I: Dominate the FloorJune, JapanRen liked to think adulting is nothing but becoming boring and uneventful. He always watched their neighborhood. Every day, a bakery near their house would open at exactly 6o'clock in the morning; the newspaper every day would be dropped by 7AM by a young man on a bicycle; the man who lived at their house would leave at quarter to 8, always in a hurry. When the sun rose completely, everyone was up and began their brunch routine. It was fascinating at first, how these people do their work cooperatively and skillfully. It was fascinating until it became dull and repetitive. Ren stopped getting up to watch them silly.Adults repeat their duty every day. Isn't it a pain for them too?It was the same for his parents. They would say the same reminder every day before leaving the house, the same set of rules, the same time he was supposed to be a babysitter would come— it had already been decided and so he stopped expecting,.

It was the time of the year that their neighborhood had gone silent, as if everyone went to hibernate and prepared for months of snowy season. The streets were clean, void of any presence outside. Almost like a ghost town only if it weren’t for the lively decorations each house has.Ren continued his little trip, walking carelessly, there was a spring in his step and he was humming happily. He planned to go to the plaz
