I’m discontinuing the story
the ending was that kanae would’ve died protecting sanemi from a criminal gang trying to hunt him down because his father was in the gang and stealing money from its savings when he was still alive.
The criminal group had already killed all of sanemi’s siblings when he first entered ivory academy. Which left sanemi his personality he had when he first met kanae.
Kanae got kidnapped because of her relationship with him, the kidnappers tried forcing her into telling sanemi’s whereabouts.
Kanae managed to lead them in the wrong direction but when she told them where he “was” they killed her after because she meant no use.
she was marked as missing for a few months, but when the police found out she got kidnapped by the gang, they stopped searching, the gang was lethal and wasting their recourses on saving one girl was unnecessary.
The police told sanemi about the kidnapping, nobody else. The police didn’t know that his dad used to be in the gang but sanemi did know and the guilt trailed him.
The butterfly home lost its happiness, the moment she was marked missing the sisters + aoi fell into a depression. In a few years the depression faded but the hole in their heart wasn’t fully filled with love.
Sanemi blamed himself for her death, he wished she never loved him, he wished he was never born, he’s been on watch by the police for attempted suicide multiple times.
But every day he waited by the same cherry tree hoping she’d come, a hope that never came..
