"I will see you soon Kokichi." Rantaro said as he left with luggage dragging behind him. "See ya~" Kokichi replied. 

~ A few weeks later, Kokichis P.O.V. ~ 

'I got a report from my doctor.. And it's not looking good. I didn't want to tell him... I wanted to make him happy. I didn't want to make him worry.. He should be returning in 3 weeks. I won't even be able to see him for one last time. That's.. I should stop thinking about this and focus back onto my letter.'

'I finished the letters. All I need to do now is call out for the nurse to call my friend Kaede here.' I thought to myself as I pushed a button, a nurse soon coming into my room. She had purple hair and was super nice. Though she seemed shy, I don't blame her. "D-Do you need anything Ouma?" She softly spoke. "Could you call my friend Kaede for me? I think I gave her number to you before.. I cannot remember." "Yes.. You have. I-I'll be right back." She said as she turned around and rushed out of the room. Strange.. 

A few moments later a blonde girl entered my room. That of course being Kaede. "Hey Kokichi.. I've been informed on your state. What did you need?" "Could you deliver these letters to Rantaro and I's house. Just leave them on the table." "Alright.. But. How do I tell him?" "You won't need to. I told him. It's fine." "Whatever you say. I'll be going now." She said as she took the letter and waved. 

~ Time skip, No P.O.V.~ 

Kokichi soon enough passed away due to an incurable disease he had been diagnosed a few years ago. His funeral was a short time before Rantaro had returned. But how will Rantaro feel now that his significant other was gone? Well..

~ Rantaros P.O.V. ~

I returned to my house. It was dark and empty. "Kokichi?" I call out, but receive no response. 

I soon see a light in the corner of my eye, it was the kitchen light. I let go of my bags and head into the kitchen. "Hey Kokichi! You got me scared for a sec-" I say, not noticing he wasn't here either, instead of him there was a letter. 

I took the letter into my hands and read what it consisted of. 'It's some surprise of his isn't it? Well alright then.' I took the little paper inside the paper and noticed an address. I quickly headed out of the house and locked the door.

On my way to the address I grabbed some flowers from the nearby flower shop. Soon enough I stood before a strange looking house. Or what I assumed was someones home. I sighed and knocked on the door. I was greeted by a girl in pigtails, she wore the same clothes like Kokichi. I assumed this is one of the D.I.C.E. members. 

"You must be him.. Ah- Uh- I'm Ayano! Though.. You won't be needing my name. Anyway. Please follow me." She sounded so beaten up by something.. As she took my hand, I knew something was wrong. 

~ Time skip ~ 

She lead me to a graveyard. "Column 2, row 5." I clutched the flowers in my hand as she briefly spoke before disappearing. '..What is going on?' I thought to myself as I walked. I reached the grave and my eyes widened as I read what was on it. My heart sunk as I noticed another letter on the grave. It was under a picture of me and Kokichi.

I started crying. I was away for such a long time and I didn't have a chance to say goodbye. "Kokichi. I'm so sorry. I wish I knew. But it's too late for that now. I promise to you, I will stick by your words. I would've never left if I knew. I don't blame you though. I get you didn't want me to worry so much.. I just.." I couldn't even finish my sentence.

Hours went by as I talked to Kokichi. Well, more so to my self. I checked my phone and it was already 10 pm. I was here for a really long time. 

"I will see you soon Kokichi." I said as I placed some flowers on his grave and left.
