Halloweenish Project Time Lapse

Chapter 23 - Karatsu and Rin Final Arc : Final message. [Road to Volume 2]

[Karatsu's POV]
So, i'm taking another path once again. I lost the last parent i had. Old man has passed away. I hated him but not in my entire life. Everyone will hate me. I made fake promises with Kisara, I keep lying with my only little sister Rin. I ran away from everyone. I think it's better way for me. I was thinking to commit suicide but i remembered what the Old guy said.
"Suicide is not the only solution to escape through reality." He saved me when i was trying to kill myself after mom died. How is he doing now?

Karatsu reaches the old house near the mountain. The house of his Grandmother. (Sayaka). His grandmother standing on the stairs and waiting for him.

"Are you.. Sayaka? My Father's..." Karatsu asked.

"That's right. I'm Sayaka. Katsu's mother. I heard about you. You're the same with him." The old black haired woman smiled at him and helps him to go on her house.

"I can do everything. Cooking, Washing and anything."

"You're kind just like your father. Karatsu. I called you to tell you something important about your family and your father."

"What is it?" Karatsu's mood get seriously and he's ready to listen.

"I know you hate him. But it's not the reason to forget him. He told me about your relationship with Kisara. Tetsu's Daughter. Your relationship with her are the same with relationship with your parents. Katsu loved Miyuki. When he's younger age. He keep skipping classes just to visit Inoue. He needs help with his best friend Tetsu on how confessed with her. So he helped him."

[Flashback]
(Katsu's younger age)

"Miyuki... please accept my confession" Katsu bows at her when blushing. Tetsu hides and watched them.

"I appreciated you hard work, Katsu. I felt your feelings about me and you really love me.That's why I love you as well." Miyuki smiles at him then Katsu hugs her tightly.

[End of Flashback]

"That relationship they made get stronger. They married and have their first daughter. You know her right?"

"It's Laura?"

"Yup. Laura Kirigaya."

"Why she's using Kirigaya? Instead of Himegami?"

"Laura decided to use your mother's last name. I don't know the reason but she wants to keep it secret on you.
After 3 years. Your parents have you. They give your name when they're thinking about Ice creams." She laughs at him then pats his head.

"Your father worked hard for you and Laura. They never fight. They lived happily without problems. After 2 years. They had their 3rd child and it's Rin. I'm happy that you have a family like that. I just want you keep this photo of your Family." She gives the photo of Himegami Family at Karatsu.

"I will treasure it, Obaasan (Grandmother)" Karatsu bows at her.

"I'm not done yet. Do you want to know why your father ended up like that?"

"I really want to know about it!"

"After the horrible events on his entire life. Katsu's changed. Katsu getting addicted on drinking beer, using cigarette and using drugs. He told me this thing after knowing that he have a cancer. He cried and he wants forgiveness on his children also you. Karatsu. Katsu wants you to forgive you. I visited him yesterday and he told me to give those letters he did to his children before he dies. It makes me sad.. When his last breathe.. Katsu smiles at me. After that. I gave those letters to your little sister and i think she put it somewhere." His grandmother wipes her tears then suddenly looks on the skies.
