There are people who love him, doesn't he know?
People who don't just pity him.
People who actually care what he feels.

"Don't cry for her, she wouldn't want you to."

She's watching over him.
Just like my mom.
She's gone, but she loves me.
Saki loves him too.

"Are you okay?"

Maybe if people asked him, he would talk.
No one ever asks him, they just assume he's not.
And maybe he's not, but how would they know?

"You can talk to me, you know."

People think he's a slacker, but he cares.
He's just tired of being looked down on.
He needs a friend.
Won't anyone be his friend?
Tell him you care, someone.

"I care about you."

That's all he needs to hear.
Maybe then he'll be happy.
When he's happy, he can move on from this.
But he won't forget that Saki loves him.
Nothing can make him forget.
Just like I can't forget that my mom loves me.

"Your parents love you too."

Is love enough?
Why do people have to die?
I hope they're happy in heaven.
It must be nice there.

"She has a wonderful place in heaven now."

Will that make him happy?
Maybe someone should say that to him.
I don't know what it's like to lose a sibling.
Big brother, promise you won't die.
Not yet, not so soon.
But tell him Saki loves him.
He needs to know.
