August 29, 20XX. My best friend became empty.
About
August 29, 20XX. When I arrived at school this morning, Sakura Takatsuki was empty. The loud, foolish Sakura from before was gone. Now, no matter what I say, he only responds with "Yeah" or "Either is fine." No one knows why. Even the doctors have given up.
Nobody knows what happened to Sakura.

Intro
Present Day — September 2, 20XX.
Since August 29, no matter what I ask, Sakura only gives short, monotone replies.
If I ask, "Do you like pudding?" he says, "Yeah." If I ask, "Do you hate pudding?" he says, "Yeah."
A proper conversation is impossible.
Everything was normal until we parted ways on August 28. But when I got to school on the morning of August 29, he was already empty.
What on earth happened to Sakura?
Without an answer, I continue to talk to him today.
