Akari Monologue
Akari…why’d you have to do it? Why’d you have to leave us? It’s not fair. You were my best friend, and you were everything to me. Everything! No, this… this just isn't fair!
Those thoughts cut through me as they brought me back from one of our last moments together into the reality in front of me.
“Akari… Akari! AKARI!” I cried out with the force of a person vomiting on all fours, with eyes bleeding a stream flowing down like pillars of lightning. The smell of freshly-mown grass and the smell of various flowers cut my throat with each breath. The sight of all the flowers was unbearable as they created such a forlorn image.

It was not until I lost Akari that I came to know the true torment of loss. It turns your blood into sorrow, with your heart pumping that sorrow to the rest of your body. The memory was still engraved in my mind after such a long time. I pondered the same questions over and over again.
How could such a beautiful person who was so optimistic and had such a will to achieve her goals just choose to go away so unpredictably?
