Chapter 4 - Live...

Start from the beginning
                                    

Kenta said as he let out a few more sobs before recomposing himself.

"I'm sorry..."

Sayo apologized.

"I...placed a heavy burden on you, haven't I...?"

Sayo asked, the look of sadness on her face.

"Sayo, you did nothing wrong, let me take all the blame, please...you're my savior after all so..."

Kenta said as he recomposed himself and Sayo held his hand.

"Kenta...I can't leave you alone for a second, now can I...?"

Sayo teased, with him going to a blank canvas and starting to stroke his pencil upon it.

"Hold still."

Kenta ordered, moving his hand quickly, and already sketching everything with decent details.

"Alright, you can move now, if it's just a quick sketch, it should be easy enough. I can just add more details after."

Kenta explained.

"Why did you suddenly start sketching me?"

Sayo asked.

"Because...you look beautiful...that and think of it as a small "Thank you" from me..."

Kenta simply stated, adding more details to his canvas.

"W-What do you-"

Sayo exclaimed, with her face getting slightly red from the remark.

"I'm an artist...I simply want to capture the beauty of things in my canvas...that is all."

Kenta replied plainly, like nothing was wrong with what he said.

"After all, Sayo, I just tried to end my life, my feelings are the last thing I want to consider at this time."

Kenta complained, finishing the details.

Ah...how painful...

"Sayo, thank you...for everything..."

Kenta stated, putting down his things and moving closer to Sayo.

"Also don't think I haven't noticed, after what happened yesterday, Hina was crying at me for hours in the hospital."

He then complained, with Sayo realizing the situation she's in now.

"Oh, the stories she told me~"

Kenta teased, pushing himself out of the room.

"K-Kenta...!"

Sayo complained, running after him.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Kenta reassured, getting himself a glass of water, before going near a window, staring at the beautiful sky.

"Right now, I just want to be normal...but it's just hard, especially with how much it hurts..."

Kenta stated.

"Tell me, did I do something wrong? And was that sin so great that my parents had to pay that price...?"

Kenta asked, staring out the window.

"Of course not!"

Sayo exclaimed.

"Then tell me why...was my entire existence a mistake? Is my everything a mistake...!?"

Kenta retorted, stopping his tears.

"I just want to know...why..."

Kenta asked himself, thinking that he was to blame for everything.

"Kenta, please stop doing this to yourself."
