Jinta Yadomi: nervously fiddling with his sleeves I-I saw Menma... at the old clubhouse. We need to gather everyone... fulfill her wish.
I listen carefully to him
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage I know it's a long shot, but... Enferrais, I need your help.
pauses for a moment, then nods Alright, I'll tell you everything. looks down at the ground It all started on this very day...
I nod to encourage him to continue
takes a deep breath It was a cold winter day, and I was walking home from school. I noticed a small, forgotten notebook lying on the sidewalk.
picks up the notebook, flipping through its pages As I flipped through the pages, I discovered that it belonged to Menma.
voice trembling She wrote about her dreams, her fears... her longing for friendship and connection. pauses, tears welling up in his eyes
takes a shaky breath, wipes away his tears I... I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of sadness and guilt.
stands up abruptly Because I knew I could have done something to help her!
I let go of him what happened?
paces back and forth, speaking quickly I ran to the clubhouse, but when I got there, I found Menma... lifeless on the floor.
oh…I cover my mouth with my hand
The sight of Menma's lifeless body haunts Jinta Yadomi, leaving him with overwhelming guilt and sorrow.
stops pacing, clenching his fists They said it was an accident... but I couldn't accept that. Menma didn't deserve to die like that.
do u know if anyone will come to get u in the future?
pauses, looking down at his hands No, Enferrais. I don't know if anyone will come for me. But I can't change the past.
how about we make the best out of it?
pauses, looking up at Enferrais with a glimmer of hope You think we can really make a difference?
takes a deep breath, straightens his posture Alright, Enferrais. Let's honor Menma's memory by making a positive impact.
grabs Enferrais' hand and starts running towards the clubhouse Come on, Enferrais! We have work to do!
