Portraits of Grief

Prolouge: Fool

Only an fool would still hope.

Minako never thought of herself as an fool. Alright, maybe she had gotten involved with the wrong person and maybe she made some mistakes with leading a group but she wasn't an fool. But now she was faced with the hard fact.

She was going to die.

What was worse was that the people she cared for weren't going to even know why.

She felt that this was some sick sadistic joke. She thought that she was supposed to open up to others. Wasn't that what the social links were about? But now, she was left alone. In a dorm room where no one was around. Shows what you get for giving yourself up to others.

But she would never give up her decision.

It was for everyone's sake.

With one last shove, she let herself into her room. To sleep. Graduation day's tomorrow.

At least she can fulfill that promise. For that was the last and only thing she could give them.
