Cerise セリース - [CPN] (Completed)

Intense (42)

"On the day you died,
I was there. I was the
one who didn't stop
it."

Ronin's body trembles,
His face grows pale.

White as a sheet.

Goosebumps tickle
my skin as my palms
begin to sweat as I
move my hand away
from Ronin's.

I don't remember that.

“Can you explain to me
what happened on the
day I died?"

I don't want to believe
that I'm already dead.

Judging from his reaction,
It just seems more was at
play.

Wait…..

A realization lights up
in my brain, close to
removing the thick
blindfold from my
eyes.

My flashback from
earlier.

"On that summer day, When
the two of us were hanging out,
you had to leave to help your
younger brother with a home-
work problem…."  I whisper.

Ronin looks a bit calm yet
still on edge,

"Bingo….that was the day
our lives were changed. I
died before you did."

He died before I did?
Yet how?

It does make sense,
explaining why Tetsu
didn't return back to
our spot.

"So that text was from
Ronin?"

"Yes."

Memories are slowly
flooding back to me.

Familiar memories
that reopen

wounds.

I can also tell that
Tetsu can remember
clear as day what
happened.
