My dear Aibou,

I'm in afterlife. The life isn't same here. I've got to control the Egypt. Everybody knows I'm fine. But I'm not.

I miss you Aibou. Not only you, I miss Jonouchi, Honda, Ryo, Anzu and others too. I watch you every day from the clouds. I know that you miss me. I miss you so much. I know I'm not alone, my friends and my family are here and will be forever with me but you know what it feels like losing your brother, right?

Even though I miss you so much, I have the courage to continue. Because I know that you'll be here someday and we can talk as much we like. Time is like a flowing river and we enjoy it but every river in every person's life stops once and when their time is gone they'll be gone.

I think my river stopped too soon. But it was for the best, right? Aibou, I'm crying. You should be ashamed of me won't you?

Anyways Aibou, I've decided to let you live your own life. Every person gets a true life only once. You've gone through too much, don't you? Forgive me for it, Aibou. Just for my memories, I've endangered your life.

The last but not the least, do not think about me. I know it's hard, but please forget me. The universe is large and you have the whole life ahead. I know that you'll find happiness in your life. I miss you so much, Aibou. I wished I could talk with you and I'll wait patiently to fulfill the wish, I'll be waiting for you in afterlife, Aibou.

Love,

Atem.
