Another one gone. Someone else that I'd gotten to know. Gotten to be with. Gotten to have fun with.

Another one gone

Will I ever meet someone I can hold onto? Someone I will be with, forever?

Most likely not.

Aurora,

Melina,

Claire,

Emmy,

Arianna,

Loosha,

Sophia,

Angela

So many people I've met. Who left.

So many people I have left.

So many tears I have cried, over them. I wonder if anyone will ever cry over me.

Would Flora?

Flora, who I met at the curious village. Flora, who we always left behind when Professor Layton and I would go on adventures.

Professor Layton….

A hero

A professor

An archaeologist.

A teacher

And my closest friend.

My only friend who I still have. How long will I have him?

I am leaving.

I am leaving everyone behind. To begin a new life. Why?

Why must I start anew, when the life I have now is perfectly fine?

Why?

Why does the future come? Why does the future come, and take away everything.

Why?

So many people I've met

So many people who've left

And now it's my time to leave.

Even though I don't want to.

I must be a true gentleman. And leave.

Not cause a scene in public.

Help a lady in need

Be a gentleman.

Be a gentleman

Why should I act like a gentleman?

I'm leaving.

I'm leaving. Will I ever be back?

Why?

So many people who've left.

So many people I've met.

And now, I shall join them.

I'm leaving.

I'm leaving for the future.

And, hopefully, this time, I won't be sent back to underground London.

Goodbye, Flora.

I would've liked to spend more time with you.

Goodbye, Emmy

Even though you betrayed Professor Layton, I still need you. You meant so much to me. And you left. I will forever be Professor Layton's 'Second assistant'.

Goodbye, Professor Layton

All of our adventures. All of the people we've met. Have left. They left us, we left them. Now it is my turn to leave. Maybe you'll have more adventures? Maybe you'll find yourself a new assistant. A new apprentice. Maybe you'll forget about me.

There is so much I want to say to you, Professor.

But there is only one thing to say.

Good bye, Professor Layton

Forever your Apprentice number one.

Good bye, everyone.
