A couple of days after the argument, Namine noticed her absence. Her former companion's number 12 board was blank.
She also noticed she's been eating more alone and in solitude. And there was no presence of her friend being at the meeting tree.
Something wasn't right. Next thing she knows, the flower is showing up at her former friend's locker.
That's not good news at all
But she doesn't know who else to ask except...
She took a deep breath and woke up behind him. She must at least ask about Cynaka.
"Huh..." she tapped him on the shoulder. "I... I... I... I..." But she got lost in the trance of his eyes.
Until her phone rings.
"Hello," She answered.
Hello? Is this Namine Whitewater?
Yes, this is her."
"I'm sorry to inform you that, but... Cynaka is gone."
"Wait, what?" She said shock
"Cynaka gone. She passed away." They repeat it.
"No... no...no," she repeats "I talked to her a couple of days ago,"
"She was having chest pain that ended up being a heart attack, and she didn't make it." The other end started to cry. "I just want to let you know since you were a good friend to her."
"No... no... no... no...no," She repeats. "She can't be gone. She can't be gone. Is this a sick joke?"
"Why would I make a joke about my daughter's death?" Revealing who she's speaking to.
"No, I don't mean that. I just... I just... I just..."
"I thought you were a good friend to her to my daughter, but I must have made a mistake. Have a nice day, Miss Namine." And hang up on her face.
By the time she got off the phone, Riku had disappeared from presence. But her head was getting dizzy by the fact.
Her friend was gone, and she was never coming back.
