The room was quiet as Ms.Bonnie related last night's tragedy, except for a few gasps and sobs. Mr.Takagawa was nowhere to be seen.

"And now a moment of silence for the loss of our beloved student, sister and friend." she finished as she walked off stage. Ms.Bonnie had just repeated every word I heard last night only she never mentioned why Naho did it, only that she and her father had some bad miscommunication.

Bad miscommunication.

Fabrication, even her death was a lie. 

I heard a gasp from the back of the hall and I turned to see the head master walking in, his face ashen and his eyes red rimmed, so he did miss her. He walked onto the stage in his usual stiff manner and held the mic up to his mouth.

"I know Naho will never know this." he began, a stray tear tracing it's path down his cheek."But I just want to say that you should never forget to tell someone how much you love them before it's too late.."

Why didn't you tell her sir? Why didn't you? did it take so long..did she have to die for you to love her?

She always loved you.

****

It was weird how the day just continued as normal, how the day just went on , how we passed the spot that her body was found like we always did, how her memory died in less than a day.

"She left a note.." said Will suddenly from behind me as I sat on one of the stone benches in the school courtyard going over the whole thing in my head.

"Yeah.." I replied as he came to sit beside me, "What about it?"

"She mentions why." he said just as the bell rang and he had to leave.

I stared after him.

I don't know why but I feel like there is something is very wrong with this thing....

She mentions why..

What does she mention?

Was this even suicide?

"Gomensai senpai*" said a small voice as someone banged into me with a rather large force.

I looked down to see a rather small girl, she looked like a seventh grader.

"It's okay.." I smiled. She gave me an embarrassed smile and ran away, I was about to walk away when I noticed a piece of paper on the ground, I picked it up just before the wind blew it out of my grasp.

It had three words on it.

Please kill me.
