One by one, the memory passed by in my mind, replayed like a sepia film.
The moment when we still could hold hands and smiled at each other....
....I wish for that day to return....
And I hope it will be, someday.
I believe that someday you'll remember again.
But....
Will you be happier?
Or perhaps, you'll live a happier life if you didn't remember your past?
Yuu, I know that your childhood isn't really your best of days. Remembering them always brings you pain, even before you lose your memory. You always refuse to talk about it to anyone but your family, and me.
You told me that I'm the only one that can brings you happiness in this world, irreplaceable, doesn't matter what happened between us.
....But....
Right now, you're so happy....
To live in the bliss of ignorance, starting new, free from your trauma, to be able to enjoy everything in this world....
Isn't that better for you?
It's a pain for me to be forgotten, but what important for me is not my happiness, but your happiness.
Perhaps, Mika can makes you happier than me.
Well, you never liked him until now, and you still liked me even now....
But I don't want to restrain your life. I want you to be free.
I don't want you to love me just out of pity. I want to know which one that you loved the best.
If I'm your second choice, then perhaps I'm not the best....
....I sighed, deeply.
It's almost Christmas, and I'm not even in the mood.
Krul is decorating the house with cute things, and I can only fake a smile as I look at them.
.....Perhaps, I need to ask her to remove this one later....
I stroke on the wall beside the Christmas tree, where colorful papers cut into alphabets, forming words tied together.... A word that meant to bring joy, but right now, it only hurt me even more....
"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! ❤"
"ASURA ❤ YUU"
.....Ouch....
I'm clenching tight to my chest, through this sweaters and wool jacket.
I bit my lips, I shut my eyes, trying to keep it in.... But the tears still falling....
"Brother? Are you okay?"
A soft voice of a little girl called from behind, it must be her.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine. You did a good job on the decoration." I try to reply in lighthearted tone, not looking at her, so she wouldn't see the tears.
