Mizuki hasn't come out of her room for a few days now. I'm starting to get worried about her. She seemed really down these past few days, and I especially won't forget how she looked when she got home. It was as if she had been crying for a long time. When I asked her about it, she didn't respond very much. She just told me that she was fine. I really doubted that because she didn't look like she was fine at all. I tried asking her for details, but before I could ask her, she closed the door to her room and has been in there for a few days now. I thought she just had a rough day because we all have these days. However, this has never happened before. She always talked to me about these, especially because I'm her older sister. But I let her be, and I really regret this now. One day, I brought food to her door like usual, hoping she'd eat. It didn't seem like she touched any of the food we had given her, so I got worried about her. I decided that this time I'd knock on her door and ask if I could come in and talk to her about what had happened. But what I saw on that day, I still can't forget. She had decided to take her own life. As I saw her lifeless body before me, I dropped the plate of food I was carrying and started crying while yelling her name over and over. I didn't want to believe she had actually done this. I cut the rope she had hung herself with and started doing CPR on her. But to no avail, she was already dead. Then I called an ambulance, and when the ambulance arrived at the hospital, she was pronounced dead. However, it was pronounced that she had been dead for a few hours now, which surprised me the most but also broke my heart even more. Maybe all this time she wanted to tell us something. If only we weren't so foolish as to believe everything was okay because she had days like this before. To this day, I cannot forgive myself because I could have done something to prevent it. If only I was a few hours early, I thought to myself while being overwhelmed with guilt. I couldn't protect a bright future. She was a really bright girl; she never intended to harm anyone and was kind to everyone. She didn't even leave a suicide note behind. What breaks my heart the most, though, is how the people around us reacted. Our parents couldn't get over her death, and even now, after all these years, I still know that they mourn her. They also often cry, but they try to remain strong and put a smile on their faces, even though they know that the facts won't change. Kanade Yoisaki, a friend of Mizuki, had talked to me after the news broke out. She was visibly shaken up but also really sad. She told me that it was her fault and that she couldn't save Mizuki. But I told her that it wasn't her fault at all. She had tried her best, and that's all that matters.Another friend of Mizuki's, Ena came to apologize to me as well. She looked awful, as if she hadn't slept for a few days. She was really blaming herself when she found out. And she kept apologizing, saying if only she had caught up to her and told her how she really felt. Maybe things would have been different. But I didn't blame her, either; I was just happy that she had such wonderful friends. Now, in the present, Ena Shinonome has become a well-known artist, and one of her art pieces is in a museum. The art piece is titled They Want to Change. In the art, you can see a girl, but in the mirrors reflection, it's a guy. When I saw this art piece, I couldn't help but shed tears. It really resembled a long-forgotten soul by the public, which was Mizuki. As for Kanade she collapsed while making music and is currently in a coma. I heard she didn't eat or sleep at all. Or if she did eat anything, she only ate a cup of noodles. Which, in the long run, didn't really let her have the healthiest lifestyle.However, I hope she will be okay in the near future. Rest in peace, Mizuki, my beloved little sister.
