Dear Darren and Kiyoshi,
I want you to know, that I've always loved you; what I did, I did it for you. I am sorry that I got us into debt and I and sorry that I did something so stupid to try to get out of it. Please remember that I will always love you.
Darren, thank you for looking after your little brother for so long, You were always a mature, young man. I am sorry, I shouldn't have given you such a responsibility when you were meant to be studying and having fun with friends. Kiyoshi, I hope you haven't pestered Darren to much. I'm sorry for not being there for you when you needed me. You are eighteen now, if I am not mistaken. I am sorry I missed you growing up.
I don't blame Raito for what he did, so I don't want you two too, either. He was only doing the right thing; this mess is my own stupid fault.
I miss and love you both,
Your loving Father.
