Let's go to the Sea: Important Scene

This is the end of the first chapter of the game novel 'Kingdom Hearts 2: Short Stories Vol. 2 Axel--Seven Days'. The chapter is called 'Let's go to the Sea' and is pretty much just about Roxas, Hayner and Pence getting munny to pay for their train ticket. However, the end of this chapter has importance to Axel's chapter, so I'm posting it.

"Will we call it a day?" Olette stood up.
"Yeah..." Roxas' expression was gloomy.
"Well, see you tomorrow!" Hayner and Pence started off down the clock tower.
"Don't worry about it too much, okay?" Olette said over her shoulder, as she went to leave the clock tower. Roxas gave a small nod at her words, and polished off his ice-cream in a hurry, scrambling to his feet.
The sun was sinking.
It should be the same sunset as always. Why does it look different, somehow?
Something is about to change...
Am I remembering this view...?
"Roxas--!"
He heard Pence's voice, calling out to him from below the clock tower.
"I'm coming!" Roxas replied, and turned his back on the sunset, dashing down the clock tower.
In the end, we couldn't go to the sea. But, I'd be happy if we could go tomorrow.
I want to go to the sea with everyone. Because, we promised we'd all go to the beach on the holidays.
With who?
That's--that's decided. Hayner and Pence, and Olette, and me all promised we'd go to the sea together.
See, if I close my eyes, I can hear the good old sound of the waves.
Blue sea, blue sky.
We'll watch the sinking sun together on the beach.
Different to the sunset we always see, a special sunset.
Twilight Town's setting sun--was shining on Roxas' back.
