I asked Miku where sadness came from.
Rin and Len also heard the question, and also had a deep thinking session. All they could give me what 'lack of oranges/bananas' though, which is why I asked Miku in the first place.
She said that maybe it came from unresolved issues. Debts, broken promises, guilt... I remembered our fight with regret. There was also the mood swing theory, but frankly, if Lily is going through a mood swing, this is the biggest swing I've seen; she's been down as long as I've known her.
Then she said there was the broken heart. Ah, it all came together in my mind. Of course; her songs, her attire...I knew from the start she had romance issues. It's baffling I hadn't thought of something like this earlier.
So, Lily was heartbroken. Of course, it wasn't a truth, at least for me. Like Schrodinger's cat, I didn't know if it truly was the case until the truth was revealed to me.
Miku asked where the question came from. I remembered that I had promised myself to forget the entire Lily issue, and I shook my head, telling her not to worry.
Lily, Lily, Lily... I couldn't get her out of my mind. I couldn't stop caring. It was purely my own fault for not being able to evacuate her from my thoughts; I cared too much in general for people's well-being. But this fixation, this obsession...
I needed to talk to her. I needed to sort it out. I needed closure, I thought. I needed to hear from Lily that I didn't need to care or worry, and that would be the end.
I nodded to myself, and spent some more time with the twins and Miku. Shortly after I got up, to look for the blonde. I was wondering how to approach this before receiving a ticket from Officer Masuda for invading her personal bubble of ten meters.
Lo and behold, I opened the door and nearly collided into her.
I told you she was quiet.
