~Flashback~

At Minako's room, Minako is resting on her bed. Noticed that her body didn't move too much. Shinjiro, Aigis and the others are watching her.

"I'm glad we found her with Aigis. Man! I thought we lost our memories after defeating Nyx," Junpei grinned happily.

"Defeating Nyx?" Shinjiro confused.

"Nyx is the Arcana of Death and the final Shadow. We almost lost our hopes to eliminate him but Minako took an action alone with all our supports to help her," Mitsuru explained.

"She seems exhausted by using her persona. Fuuka, your family members are doctors, right? Can they check up on her?" Yukari asked.

"Oh! Of course. Just to be sure if she'okay. She needs a lot of rest and eats some health meal," Fuuka nodded.

Mitsuru, Yukari, Junpei, Ken, Koromaru and Fuuka left Minako's room.

Akihiko put his hand on Shinjiro's shoulder. "You stay with her, right? It's okay to stay and spend time with her. She misses you so much. Even, visited you every day at the hospital," he said.

Shinjiro blushed as he knew Minako visited his unconscious self. "R-really? I shouldn't sleep in months," he mumbled and sighed sadly.

"I blamed Takaya for almost killing you but he's gone now. Ken has respect on you and live on. I better go to the others," Akihiko walked away and left.

"Alright," Shinjiro replied as he looked his precious angel. "What about you, Aigis?" he asked Aigis, standing beside him.

"I required to stay here with you and Minako," Aigis replied.

Suddenly, Minako's eyes were open and stared at Shinjiro.

"Shinji..." she called with a weak voice.

Shinjiro gasped. Went to her and held her hand.

"Minako, are you alright?" he asked worriedly.

"I'm just...tired..." she answered with a smile.

"I heard everyone that you saved us all. Please don't do that again about using your power alone," he muttered.

"I'm sorry... I sacrificed myself to save you, Aki, our friends and everyone else... That's the only chance to stop Nyx for destroy our world... Shinji... Did you read my letters for you?" Minako asked.

"I have five of them but I haven't read them yet," Shinjiro sighed.

"I see... That's alright... I prayed that... you woke up... alive..." she was breathing heavily as her eyes are tired.

"Minako..." Shinjiro frowned. He touched her cheek.

Minako noticed Aigis is standing next to her lover. "Aigis... Please be with our friends..."

Aigis nodded. "I accepted your request, Minako Arisato," she mumbled sadly. As she knew what happened to her friend.

"Shinji... Forgive me for what I did," Minako touched Shinjiro's cheek.

Shinjiro kissed her on the lips and held her hand tightly. "Of course that I forgive you because I love you, Minako."

Minako smiled happily. Her tears fell on her cheek. "I love you too, Shinjiro Aragaki," she said for her final breathe. The eyes of the heroine were closed. Her hand that Shinjiro is holding, fell down.

Shinjiro's eyes were widened open. Didn't realize that it was Minako Arisato's farewell. He didn't believe it. He shook her lover's lifeless body. "Minako? Minako?!"

Then, someone opened the door. "Hey! What's going on?" Ken asked.

"…Minako… is no longer with us in this world… I'm sorry," Aigis replied sadly.

"What?!" Ken shocked.

Shinjiro hugged Minako as he cried of regret, sorrow and lost.

~Flashback End~

Shinjiro woke up by his flashback dream. Got up and rubbed his head. He wore his black boxer because of the summer season. He remembered the letters that Minako wrote them for him. They're already read but Shinjiro wants to read them again. He walked to his study table as he opened the drawer. Five, colourful, small, scented envelops were designed by his former girlfriend. He decided to read them.
