I was sad and lonely today, that's why I wrote this passage. Drink water and love each other

* * *

Himeko runs as fast as he can to the farthest carriage, hoping it's not too late. Rushing past the rooms, she stopped at one and abruptly opened the door. There was no one inside, only a lit fireplace in the corner of the room confirmed that someone lived here.

The floor was perfectly clean, the bed was made, the table on which papers were scattered and in some places it was stained with ink. Anger was reflected on the Red-haired woman's face when she did not find the person she was looking for.

**
Himeko, please don't think about me for too long. Tell March and Dan Heng that I decided to leave the express, but if Dan himself comes up and asks what really happened, then you can tell me. No one is to blame. I'm just bothering everyone. My life will only bring losses to everyone, I don't belong here. I should have left back on my planet, but you saved me and gave me hope. I'm grateful for that, but I turned out to be a burden. I got rid of most of the things. She distributed it to the poor, sold it for pennies, and gave the remaining savings to charity in Belobog. But the only thing I couldn't get rid of......

"You're a fool Y/N, just such a fool!"

Himeko ran further and further along the carriages and tears welled up in her eyes, which threatened to turn into sobs in a second.

***
I couldn't sell or give away your gift. This is the same braid that you gave me when I was made a pioneer. And that's why I'm giving it to you. Thank you, Himeko. Don't blame yourself, and even more so don't cry. It's just that when I left the cabin, everyone started quarreling, and it hurts me to watch how my dear people quarrel. And that failure on Gert, I know it happened because of me. Say thanks to Welt for me. I love you, Himeko. See you in another world. Goodbye.

Your Y/N.

— You're just A FOOL!

Himeko ran to the last car of the train and opened the door to the bathroom. What she saw horrified the woman.

There was a girl lying on the floor, whom everyone loved so much. She was the sun of the whole express, and even when Mart was discouraged, she came to the rescue with an outstretched hand.

Himeko immediately rushed to the girl to feel her pulse. And when he barely looked through, the woman did not waste a second looking around the room. The floor was strewn with pills and there was an empty pill box next to the bathroom.

"Sleeping pills"

— Welt! Come to me urgently! Here Y/N is dying!

Twenty seconds later, Welt appeared. He was clearly worried and ran as fast as he could, which was evident from his rapid breathing.

Himeko held your still warm body in her arms and whispered words of comfort.

— Please heal her, heal her. She took a sleeping pill.

— I'll do my best.

A man came up to your body and put his hand on your stomach. Everything around lit up with yellow flowers and after a couple of minutes the man took his hand away.

— Please tell me I'm not late.

Welt was clearly even more exhausted than before, but he held on.

— It's all right. She's fine now. I... barely made it. You did the right thing by calling me right away. She will need time to recover. Like all of us, after today.

He took another look at the woman who had tears in her eyes. In her arms lay a young girl who began to get warmer.

"She'll stay like this for a few days. Maybe even a couple of weeks. And she will need to be looked after.

He got up and began to slowly make his way to his room.

Himeko, on the other hand, snuggled against your chest and listened to your steady light heartbeat, whispering a few words.

— Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please don't leave.

A couple of days later, Himeko was sitting and looking at you. You've been lying on her bed for a week now and Natasha hasn't said comforting things. The longer you were unconscious, the less chance you had. Himeko didn't leave your side for a minute. Only Welt could take her to the bathroom and eat with the condition that he would keep an eye on you.

The spark in her eyes was gone, as if her light had disappeared along with the will to live itself. Sometimes she could lie down next to you and lie still for hours. It was enough for her to watch you breathe into a medical mask.
Now Himeko took your hand between her own and buried her head in them.
— Please wake up. Stay here. I need you. Everyone needs it, but especially me. I still haven't decided to tell you. And you just dropped it on me like a bomb, without even thinking about my feelings. Selfish. I love you too. So please stay... with me.

— If it's a dream. I like him.

Shock. That was what was written on the woman's face. Lifting her head, she stared at the lying girl. She just smiled drunkenly.

"I love you, Himeko.

She said it just as drunkenly and weakly.

The woman just stared at the younger one in shock, not believing her eyes.

— You're not a burden.

The girl immediately became sad when the words reached her ears.

— You are not a burden, you are not unnecessary to us, you are not expendable, you are a mistake. And I... I love you. So please. Don't you dare leave me anymore. I-I just can't take it a second time.

— So I'm not...

- no.

— So you managed to find me after all.

- yes. I immediately ran into that carriage.

— But if I'm not dead and it's not a dream, then...

— I love you. And I always have. I'm sorry I didn't say this before, but I thought you knew.

The woman moved closer to the girl's face and gently took off the mask and kissed her on the lips. Gently, with love.
