Chapter 109
After reading the letter, Ryosaku was in a daze. With a big sigh, he closed his eyes, covered his face with both hands, and sat in his chair, unable to move.
Night soon fell, and his room was gradually enveloped in darkness.
(Mieko-chan... Mieko-chan... is dead!? )
After that painful separation, and after seven long years of darkness, the dazzling light of Mieko that finally appeared before him now faded away again... and like the pitch black darkness that filled the room, she finally disappeared from Ryosaku's sight.
He was mercilessly crushed once again by the harsh reality that was suddenly thrust before his eyes, and he remained in that position until morning.
Ryosaku was currently sitting at his desk in his room.
Freed from a year of difficult dormitory life, he commuted to college every day by car from his home.
When he fell asleep at his desk and was woken up by his mother shaking him by the shoulder... the sun was already high in the sky and the room was filled with dazzling light.
Yes. Just like Mieko used to be.
