Nana looked at her phone, crying bitterly at the message with a tiny side note, which read, "last seen 2pm." Then she reread her message to Nobu and wept a little harder. Did he hate her? Did he hate her so much, he would not even acknowledge her apology?


"Nobu," her message read, "I am sorry. I cannot face you, I am a coward, but I need to say this. I never meant to hurt you, even now, I still hold you dear. Maybe in another world, we are still friends."

He didn't reply; he was a coward too.
