The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
“Once she finished, she stared up at the sky, looking like she regretted saying all that.
A train passed by on the tracks. The roaring noise gave me some time to decide if I should make a witty comment or quote some philosophical anecdote to fill up the silence. I pointlessly watched the train disappear into the distance, leaving behind a Doppler effect.

My inability to say anything else made me a bit depressed. Haruhi silently patted down her hair, which had been blown around by the gu...st from the train.
“I’m going home,” she said, and headed back the way we came.
