"On the day you died,


    I was there. I was the


    one who didn''t stop


    it."


    Ronin''s body trembles,


    His face grows pale.


    White as a sheet.


    Goosebumps tickle


    my skin as my palms


    begin to sweat as I


    move my hand away


    from Ronin''s.


    I don''t remember that.


    “Can you explain to me


    what happened on the


    day I died?"


    I don''t want to believe


    that I''m already dead.

    It just seems more was at


    play.


    Wait…..


    A realization lights up


    in my brain, close to


    removing the thick


    blindfold from my


    eyes.


    My flashback from


    earlier.


    "On that summer day, When


    the two of us were hanging out,


    you had to leave to help your


    younger brother with a home-


    work problem…."  I whisper.


    Ronin looks a bit calm yet


    still on edge,


    "Bingo….that was the day


    our lives were changed. I


    died before you did."


    He died before I did?


    Yet how?


    It does make sense,


    explaining why Tetsu


    didn''t return back to


    our spot.


    "So that text was from


    Ronin?"


    "Yes."


    Memories are slowly


    flooding back to me.


    Familiar memories


    that reopen


    wounds.


    I can also tell that


    Tetsu can remember


    clear as day what


    happened.
