Thank you in advance.
That level crossing on the outskirts of the town in the gathering dusk; the piping birdlike voices of the three children; and the brilliant color of the oranges that showered down upon them – all flew past the train window in the twinkling of an eye.
But the scene etched itself on my mind with a clarity that tore at my heartstrings, and I was filled with a euphoric lightheartedness and joy.
I raised my head in elation and scrutinized the girl as if she were completely different person. She had moved back to the seat facing me on the opposite side of the carriage and had once again buried her chapped cheeks in the apple-green woolen muffler, while in her hand, as she clasped the large cloth-wrapped bundle, she tightly clutched the precious second-class ticket.
It was then that I was able to forget, for the first time, a little of my unspeakable weariness and languor, as well as the meaninglessness, vulgarity, and tedium of life.

The crossing in the outskirts of the village tinged with the evening twilight, the three boys who called out like little birds, the bright colour of the tangerines that tumbled down to them – all of this passed by the window of the train in a fleeting moment. But the sight of it all burnt agonisingly clearly into my heart. Then I became conscious of a strange cheerful feeling welling up inside of me. With my head held high I gazed at this girl who was now like a different person. She had returned to the seat in front of me, her chapped cheeks buried in the olive green woollen scarf, and firmly gripping the third class ticket in her hand that was hugging the large parcel wrapped in a furoshiki cloth…
For the first time I was able, if ever so slightly, to forget the unspeakable fatigue and languor, to forget my arcane, low, tedious life.
