—The memories of being close and playing in the park with my older brother when we were little are now my most precious treasures—

As he entered middle school and high school, my brother, Haruki, became increasingly rebellious. He dyed his hair blond and got piercings. While he remained bright and kind at heart, his appearance led to nasty rumors becoming a daily occurrence. Then, a few months after Haruki started his third year of high school, he cut off all contact. He wouldn't reply to messages, and he wouldn't speak to me at school... No matter how hard I looked for a reason, I couldn't find one. I was left in deep sorrow, never knowing Haruki's true feelings.

Oh... come to think of it, I almost forgot, but I think the last thing he said was:

You're no longer... my brother (sister).

Was that it? ...He used to play with me so much back then.
