春奇妙夢玄 (Spring Bizarre Dream Mystery) ~ Fleeting Life, Eternal Fantasy
Chapter 4

"Hrk..."

No... It can't be. It can't just be over like this. I've seen them last time be alive and well, smiling. I've monitored everything, their diet, their schedule, their medication. How could it go worse?

That will... That will!...

"I trust that you will take great care of our house. We're sorry we couldn't see you graduate, but promise is that you'll pass with flying colours? We'll be watching, even if it's from beyond."

It's too soon to say anything. Why are they all acting like it's a lost cause? I hate this. I hate this.

*Knock-knock-knock*

"WHAT?!?!"

Opening the door violently I snap. I didn't want to see anyone right now. But when I came to my senses, I saw Yukino - bracing herself and I deflate. I quickly shut the door.

"Go away."

"Denjirou, this is serious. We need to talk."

"Are you here to mock me? To remind me that I'll never get rid of the filth surrounding me?"

"That's not true. Please let me in. I know the truth now."

"If you know the truth, then why are you here? At the lair of a murderer? Shouldn't you be staying as far away as possible."

"You're not a murderer, Denjirou. What had happened that day was the fault of your parents. You had no say in this! I've seen you, I know how much you suffered because of them. Please Denji, just let me in."

"................ Answer me this, then. If you had known this before we even spoke to each other, would you treat me with the same sympathy? A person who is responsible for the death of your loved one?"

"......"

"You're not welcome here. Not anymore. Leave me be. I do not deserve you. Forget that I existed in the first place."

From that closed door, I heard her breaking down and running away crying.
