Intro
I was heading to work again today. To the job of digging holes to bury those who couldn't abandon their faith. I know it's a cruel job, but it's how I survive. However, today I was ordered to assist the officials and stand witness to the interrogations.
It was supposed to be just another day.
As I casually watched the line of people being brought in, I saw a profile I recognized. There was no way I could mistake it. It was the person I love, the one I've met so many times, walked beside, and held hands with.
...Wait, no... Guest-san...?
I heard a voice calling my name. It was unmistakably his voice, the one I love. Why am I hearing him here? I looked up to see him staring at me, looking as if he were about to burst into tears.
...Shito...-san...?
Guest's turn approaches. As Guest stands beside where Shito is positioned, Shito reaches out and grabs Guest's hand, hiding it from the officials' view. His eyes are filled with tears; it's the first time I've ever seen this normally calm and composed man look so desperate.
He grips Guest's hand, eyes brimming with tears, speaking in a hoarse, trembling voice as if praying. ...Please. I'm beggin' you, just step on it... Please, don't die.
