She sat in silence on the engawa, gazing at the horizon. When I tried to touch her hand, she inched away \u2013 a movement which hurt deeply. Eventually she turned to me. \u201cThank you for telling me everything.\u201d She closed her eyes and breathed deeply. \u201cI hope Mori found happiness in the end.\u201d \u201cI hope so, too. We didn\u2019t stay in touch, so I don\u2019t know what happened to her.\u201d Even though we promised to watch the end of the world together. \u201cMh\u2026\u201d She put her hands on her lap, looking like a proper lady.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope she found happiness. I really hope so.\u201d \u201cI thought you hated her.\u201d \u201cI hated the idea that she spent so much time with you. I hated the idea that she held your hand. I hated how she got to know you before I did. I hated how she was an adult, and I was a kid. You took her seriously and saw her as an equal, whereas when we met, you just saw me as a kid.<\/p>\n

But now that I know everything, I really wish she was able to find happiness before the end of the world. To live and die with that kind of loneliness inside must be terrible. No one should have to suffer like that.\u201d She paused momentarily before asking, \u201dDo you have a picture of her?\u201d<\/p>\n

I shook my head. \u201cI have company pictures on my phone. But my phone\u2019s battery has been dead for years now. We never took pictures together.\u201d \u201cNot even when you were saying goodbye?\u201d I shook my head. Sayaka lightly punched my shoulder. \u201cOw! Did I do something wrong?\u201d \u201cStupid Senpai! Mori probably wanted to have a picture with you. She was just too embarrassed to ask for it.\u201d \u201cWhat? Why would she want something like that?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEven if she didn\u2019t love you, you were still someone important to her. After she moved back to her hometown, I\u2019m sure she at least wanted a picture to remember you by.\u201d I didn\u2019t understand her. Before I told her this story, she hated my kohai with every bone in her body. And now, she suddenly supported her, even scolding me for not taking a picture with her. Eventually, she calmed down. \u201cI wish I could\u2019ve been your kohai.<\/p>\n

We would\u2019ve made a great team.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t know about that\u2026\u201d \u201cEh? Why?\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s awkward to date a colleague.<\/p>\n

“As time passes, we become numb to this loneliness, we get used to the pain, and this feeling simply becomes the norm. It\u2019s always there, in the background, like a ghost in the corner of your room. The problem is that ghosts will come to haunt you every now and then.”<\/p>\n

She leaned back, supported by her hands, her legs dangling off the edge, and her long black hair glowing softly under the tawny sunlight. I stared at her, unable to answer. \u201cDaisuke? Is something wrong?\u201d I took a sip of the hot green tea Sayaka had prepared earlier. After the snow melted, we discovered several boxes of high-grade matcha powder in a nearby house. Since then, we\u2019ve been enjoying delicious tea, although the traditional way of making it is a bit annoying.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d much rather just pour hot water into a cup so I can get on with my work. Ah\u2026 \u201cI asked myself that question a lot when the world first ended,\u201d I said. \u201cOh. Did your answer change since then?\u201d \u201cHmm\u2026my answer has changed since I met you.\u201d Sayaka punched my shoulder slightly.<\/p>\n

Even in the orange rays of the sunset, I could tell she was blushing slightly. \u201cW-What are you saying?! This is so embarrassing\u2026\u201d \u201cBefore I met you, I would\u2019ve said the best thing about the end of the world is that I don\u2019t have to work anymore.\u201d \u201cHooo?<\/p>\n

That sounds like a normal answer. Getting to escape the corporate slave environment is great, no?\u201d \u201cMh, yeah. But it wasn\u2019t until later I understood why I wanted to escape.\u201d \u201cHee\u2026and what is it?\u201d \u201cThe best thing about the end of the world\u2026is that I get to spend more time with you.\u201d This time, Sayaka blushed from head to toe, looking as if steam were about to come out of her ears.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince when have you turned into a womanizer\u2026\u201d \u201cWomanizer?!\u201d \u201cHmph!\u201d She turned her head away in a huff. I poured her some tea. That seemed to calm her down. \u201cAll my time, energy\u2026all of my thoughts, every breath I took was for the sake of work. When there finally was a day off, I\u2019d be sleeping all day. So when the world ended, at first I was just glad that I didn\u2019t have to go to work anymore.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
