"Sachi...my sweet, sweet daughter...you have to try harder.."

"Mama..?"

"Much harder..you have to try...you have to be better..."

"Mama...I'm...I'm trying my best...I can't try anymore..."

"You can.. you have to..."

"I am! I'm doing my best!"

She smiled. It was a cruel and twisted smile.

"Your best isn't good enough...try harder..."

"But mama! If I try any harder, I'll die!"

That smile...

"Well then if that's the case...I'll take comfort in the fact...that you went down fighting..."

..and those cold, prying hands around my neck...

"M..mama! No!"

..squeezing tighter and tighter...

"Be a good girl and hold still...it'll all be over soon..."

"Mom!"

She really wanted me to die...

"Hold still!"

"..!"

Squeezing hands...no oxygen...my life.. flashing before my eyes...fear...and my last words...

"...Why..?"

Oh, shut up...you know why...

"Die..."

No..I don't want to die...

"Die!"

No! I dont...want to..!

"..Mama? Where did you go? Why's it so dark..?"

A gate...

"Nii-san? Papa? Is someone there?"

Silence...a distant light...mom?

"Mom..."

What's that she's holding in her hand? And why's there so much blood..? God, I was only nine...

"Baby..come here...come to mother..."

Why? So you can KILL me again?

"..."

Red stones...she's forcing them down my throat...poison?

"Eat them..."

But why kill me twice?

"EAT them..."

They have an attractive taste...and yet...

"That's my girl..."

..it doesn't feel right somehow...since when was I hers?

"Mom..?"

A warm and sinister embrace... "Envy...my beautiful...perfect...little girl..."

Perfect...
