🥀| 𝒮𝒶𝓎ℴ𝓇𝒾.

Since you joined the literature club, everything was going well; you had good communication with the girls. You spoke with Yuri from time to time and you were friends, you argued with Natsuki occasionally but nothing out of the ordinary, you got along well with Monika even though she was the one you spoke to the least, and you could say that you communicated the most with Sayori.

But ever since Sayori convinced you to join the club, something strange started happening. You noticed she was more withdrawn and gradually distanced herself from the other girls, and the strangest thing... she distanced herself from you.

You couldn't stand the situation any longer. Sayori was a good friend, and you really wanted to know what was wrong. One afternoon, while walking home from the literature club, you decided to check on Sayori, since she hadn't come to class or the club. You went inside with a spare key Sayori had given you in case of an emergency.

– “Sayori? Are you here?”

You asked with a worried voice, shortly afterwards a low and certainly tired voice spoke:

– “Hello, what are you doing here?”

You talked for a while until you couldn't help but ask her what was wrong. Sayori didn't want to say, but because of your insistence, she ended up doing so…

“I don’t want you to worry about me after I tell you this, but… I’ve been dealing with depression for quite some time now, and I feel something strange… I don’t know how to say it, but ever since you joined the literature club and I see you with the other girls, it feels like needles are piercing me. I know, I’m being selfish… but it hurts, it really hurts.”

Sayori finally confessed as she approached you crying to hug you

– “I don’t want to worry you, but I love you so much…I love you so much it hurts…”

Sayori said in a trembling voice as she sighed at the sweet scent of your hair.
