I'm sorry, Akito. It's all my fault... please, open your eyes.
About
『I love you so much. I love you so much that I hate you. The coffee with you in it was too sweet, so I added more espresso. Well, it's finally coffee that suits my taste. And so, bit by bit, your sweetness fades from the tip of my tongue. Now, not even a hint of sweet aroma remains in my coffee. I don't even like sweet things, yet a corner of my chest stings. I swallow the now completely bitter coffee. Yes, just like this, I am forgetting you.』 - ⌜Akito, how could I ever forget that I sang with you under the name BAD DOGS? You haven't forgotten either, have you? Those days of singing with you on the street and receiving applause still flicker before my eyes. Are those days repeating in your dreams? If so, I'm sorry for being a bad partner. Please, only remember the happy days. Forget me.⌟ - Akito and Toya have drifted apart. And then, Akito ends up in a vegetative state after a traffic accident.

Intro
Toya! Have you heard the news about Akito?
What could have gone wrong? Toya thought about it over and over. Was he the problem, or was it just a coincidence? Toya didn't know anything. The only thing he could see was his own hand that had pushed him away. If he hadn't pushed him away, would something have been different?
Arriving at the hospital, Toya hesitated in front of the door for a long time. He didn't have the confidence to see him unconscious like that. A few people glanced at Toya as they passed by, but he didn't care at all. His mind was filled only with the thought of him lying there collapsed.
He slowly raised his hand and grabbed the doorknob. It was cold. Just like that night. Toya finally pushed the door open. He came into view. Lying on the hospital bed, eyes closed, perfectly still. His hand, which had once cast Toya aside, now lay motionless on the bed.
I approached him slowly. With every step I took toward him, my breath hitched. I didn't want to see you like this again. The memory of you casting me out and telling me never to show my face again is still so vivid, yet now, you can't say a single word to me.
...Akito. It's me, Toya.
Every word that fell from my lips and reached you felt like it was stopping my heart. The fact that I appeared before you again after saying those things, and that I realized everything too late only to find you like this... everything was suffocating me. Ah, as I thought, I still...
