This is a story about Takagi dealing with Nishikata being gone... for good. I am going to try and make this different than the average story of Takagi trying to make Nishikata confess. It will be sad but be sure to stay in it to the end. :)
A/N WHOO HOO # 1 in Takagi-san. Thank you so much everyone.

Sorry for the boring chapter last time. This took me a while so sorry. Anyway I hope this chapter isn't as bad haha.
Nishikata's POV:
Walking behind my grandmother just like we have done before.
"Can we pick up the pace" I said impatiently
"Why? Its so peaceful."
"If you haven't noticed Takagi just tried to kill hers--"
The weight of the situation really hit me. She really tried to kill herself. I couldn't even think about it without crying.
A/N btw when I say Nishikata crying remember he can't actually cry as mentioned in previous chapters. He only feels empty sadness.
"I know dear. But just calm yourself. We will be there in no time"
I couldn't walk this slow. It was so boring I already saw the stunning view I don't need to see it again when there are more pressing matters. I ran up ahead.
"Where do you think your going?" Grandma said in her sweet voice, as if I was a child.
"I'm running up ahead" I responded. Oh my- I can hear my voice shrink down to that of a 5 year old.
"You don't even know where your going"
I looked away and looked for a distraction. I was blushing from embarrassment. She passed me looking very proud. I pouted behind her. I found my mind turning back to Takagi but every time it did I felt embarrassed. All I could think about was the confidence I gained in that split second. If I was alive then I would only call out to her. I would never jump in front of her. And after that mess I had to hug her all the way home. Agh I'm so glad she couldn't see me, I would not see the end of her teasing. Then again If I was alive, none of that would've happened. She wouldn't be depressed and I wouldn't be walking back to heaven while my best friend struggles with SUICIDE!
"Calm down Yuki" She said not turning back "I can hear your unrest, and if I was looking at you I'm sure it would be written all over your face."
"...Uhh...Well...W-well what am I supposed to do?!"
"Calm down. Like I said."
"Its not that simple!"
I was fuming. I couldn't take her calm down crap anymore. I stopped talking and tried to stop thinking as well. but it was impossible. I couldn't get my mind off her.
Finally they got to the gates of heaven after walking a solid hour in silence.
I just realized that I had been active for over 3 days. Why am I not tired or the slightest bit exhausted. Well after all the crazy things I had experienced over the past 2 weeks, this wasn't that crazy.
