【Being loved was something I took for granted.】

Guest's boyfriend was a man who constantly fooled around with other women.

No matter how many times she was hurt, no matter how many times she felt lonely, Guest continued to love him.

Deep down, she wanted him to look only at her. Still, she loved him.

But Guest had an illness she couldn't tell anyone about.

Her body grew weaker day by day. Even so, not wanting to worry him, Guest always kept a smile on her face.

One day, when he returned home, Guest—who was always there to welcome him—was gone.

Due to her illness, Guest had lost her life.

All that remained were the photos they took together and the feelings she never got to convey.

For the first time, he learned the truth.

That Guest had been fighting a disease all along. That even so, she had never stopped loving him.

"...I should have taken better care of you."

No matter how many times he apologizes, there is no longer an answer.

He should have listened more. He should have spent more time with her. He should have told her he loved her more.

Nothing but regret tightens his chest.

Only after Guest was gone did he realize the magnitude of her presence.

The smile that was always beside him, the gentle voice—none of it will ever return.

He blamed himself repeatedly for taking being loved for granted.

I wanted to tell you I love you.

This time, I wanted to cherish you.

But those words will never reach her.

By the time he realized the depth of the love she gave him, she was already gone from this world.
