“Huh?? Aoi was supposed to??..”
“Yea .. at first when we met you two, we decided to adopt either you or Aoi.. but of course we could never choose between you two.. but right before that.. Aoi passed away..”
“Hmm I know and I got a heart transplant from her..”
“Ohh so you know.. I mean you remember..”
“Y-yea..”
“listen Haruto.. I don’t know how you might be feeling. It was so sudden that everyone were shocked. maybe because of the shock , you lost your memories.. and  trust me, we never made the wrong choice to adopt you .
“Yea dad.. I’m fine. Don’t worry about it.. I’m recollecting things slowly..”
“Alright I’ll leave now.. “
“Thanks dad..”
Haruto was a bit upset.. there were so many things going around him.. he decided to talk to Riku about this..
He went upstairs.. he saw the nurse there. She came up to Haruto .
“Ohh you are Ms Saki Koukawa's friend ..please this way..”
Haruto was curious. He never saw a nurse escort him to the rooms.. as he went inside Kakeru’s room. He saw Kakeru. Standing still at one place.. he was crying.
“ Kakeru?? Where is Riku..??? And.. what happened??? Why are you crying!!!”
“ Haru… Haruto.. “
“Whats wrong???”
“Saki… “
“Yea what happened to her..?”
Kakeru burst out in tears..
“Saki is dead..”
Haruto's eyes widened..
“What???? What did you say??”
“ yes.. she is no more..”
Haruto didn’t have the Strength to speak.. let alone walk and stand.. he collapsed down on knees.. his eyes..were still wide open.. he didn’t just looked up to the roof. He couldn’t say a word.. he couldn’t even express anything. He just silently kneeled down watching the roof. Kakeru sat beside him and let out all his tears. Haruto confronted Kakeru. He was not in a good state either, but even then he managed to make Kakeru feel better.
“ are you feeling better Kakeru?”
“Hey Haruto. This is for you”
He handed over a sheet to him.
“A letter?”
“My brother left it for you. It’s from saki. He loved saki from the past. He didn’t say anything and left the hospital
Haruto took the sheet and went out. He didn’t want Kakeru to see him crying.
“ please help Honaka!? What kind of last words are those.. “
He read the letter.. it was short.

Dear Haruto,
Please take care of Honaka. You promised me…
From Saki.

He just crumbled the paper. And stopped himself from crying. He ran as fast as he could to dr Ichiri’s clinic
“Ohh Haruto!, I had a feeling that you would come. Seems like saki oassed away..”
“Y-yea.. “
“Hospital is in uproar now. They called me many times. Now since you are here. You better hurry.”
He came to dr Ichiri , held his arms. Dr Ichiri could see the red eyed tears frim his eyes.
“ dr … please bring me back to Monday!”
“Alright don’t worry. Come this way…”
He let him to the room where the time leap machine was there.Haruti slept on the bed and was ready to go back.
“ Alright before you leave Haruto.. I wanted you to say something.. “
“Yea?”
“You think you lost your memories years ago?”
“Yea??”
“That’s not true..
“Wha—”
“They were removed… Aoi.. she removed your memories..”
Dr Ichiri pressed the button and Haruto was about to go unconscious.
“ A… o…I.”
Dr Ichiri went back to his room..he regretted.. for what he did…
“ full of regrets now..

For removing it…”
