My body feels weaker than ever. I eat more than I did before, but I continue to lose weight. I've only been getting about 3 hours of sleep each day. Which is less that I would get when I played games, and it's not on purpose.

There's been a nagging thought at the back of my head, about that girl Tetsurou was talking too. Why was he talking to her? I need to ask him today.. I'll text him after school.

Can I ask you a random question?

ᶠʳᵒᵐ ᵗᵉᵗˢᵘʳᵒᵘ
Umm sure...

I can just blame it on one of the other teammates...

ᵀᵒ ᵗᵉᵗˢᵘʳᵒᵘ
A teammate told me you were talking with a girl last thursday... What was that about?

ᶠʳᵒᵐ ᵗᵉᵗˢᵘʳᵒᵘ
Huh... oh her, no reason. She's just a friend.

ᵗᵒ ᵗᵉᵗˢᵘʳᵒᵘ
Oh ok gtg dinner

ᶠʳᵒᵐ ᵗᵉᵗˢᵘʳᵒᵘ
ok byee ;)

She's just a friend, I heard that line before. Mostly from Yaku, and Lev though...

I decide i'm not that hungry and skip dinner. Well it's not that i'm not hungry I just have the worst headache. I stare at the ceiling as I lay on the couch curled up underneath a blanket. I begin to ask myself questions I probably don't want to know the answers too.

"If I could skip through the this year, would I be able to meet your gaze at your level and tell you that I love you, Tetsurou."  - 4
— no of course not. I can't even tell him now when I'm dying. I feel a chuckle escape my mouth as it slowly turns into a sob reminding me just how pitiful i am. It's kind of ironic not finding out just how in love i am until i'm on my death bed, It's more of a guilty feeling though.

I have to tell him, "I hope you don't hate me because I like you so much" - 5
He needs to know, I'll tell him tomorrow morning after all I still have some time left. I want him to move on after I die whether he likes me or not. I mean it can't kill me, something's already beat you to it.

But by the time I realized that my life revolves around this man, it was too late - 6
"Goodnight Tetsurou, Ill talk to you in the morning."
Slowly Kozume drifted off into a quiet and peaceful sleep with 'unrequited' love as it's title. The boy's body slowly gave out on him as he drew his last breath in his sleep, 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴  the way some people would kill to go. He had the most peaceful look on his face, almost like he had 𝘯𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘴.

"Hey, Tetsurou i'm sorry Kozume's been really sick, I don't know if he told you. But he passed away last night in his sleep."

Tetsurou stared at the message not know how to react as he felt his breath go shakey and his whole body go numb. To Tetsurou his whole world had just stopped, not only had he lost his setter on his team, he's lost his bestfriend and his lover. Kozume was the one person in his life in which he always relied on.

Why didn't he tell me, he was sick and hurting and he didn't say anything. He knew he was going to die and still didn't tell me. I'm so sorry...
