VOLUME 2

Chapter 15: Personal Notes From the Yagami Sisters 3

It wasn’t like everything was always happy.

In the past, Tsurugi-nee was even less motivated than she is now, and just went around in a daze, completely tired of the world. Kagami-nee didn’t even talk much, let alone laugh. She cowered at even small noises and seemed to be always fighting an invisible enemy.

So, Tama had to smile.

Tama was also troubled. Though, her troubles might be pretty small compared to what Tsurugi-nee or Kagami-nee were going through. Tama was teased a lot for being so tall when she started going to school. She couldn’t do anything right, and everyone else was afraid of her… it was hard.

But, Tama had to smile.

Tama couldn’t do anything, but she could at least pretend to be happy and maybe drag Kagami-nee and Tsurugi-nee into being happy too. Even if they told her she was annoying or scolded her, she would try her best to do everything she could if it meant they would stop hating the world.

It would be bad for Tama to take the credit, but Tsurugi-nee and Kagami-nee both seemed to get more and more relaxed after they came into contact with Mamarin and the others. They also started to smile more and have more energy. All the awkwardness, all the coldness and emptiness that made Tama’s chest hurt… Tama thought all of that had gone away.

But now, everything was broken again.

The peesefull days that everyone had tried so hard to earn… those days had been destroyed. Tama didn’t hold a grudge against the person who did it. Tama wasn’t allowed to hate anyone. But, she would take those days back. Even though Tama couldn’t do anything right, except for smiling.

Kagami-nee had also gotten angry at Tama.

Kagami-nee was probably hurting too, but when Tama did nothing but cry, she got angry. “You idiot. You’re so useless. Should you really be crying right now?” she would say to Tama. She threw tissue boxes and oranges at Tama and chased her out of the house.

Where did she want Tama to go?

But Tama knew. Tsurugi-nee had fallen into the Underworld. Kagami-nee was full of holes and couldn’t move. But, Tama was healthy. Only Tama was healthy. So, Tama had to do something. She was scared, and she couldn’t stop crying, but she had to do something.

She at least had to be steady and walk forwards.

If Tama’s prayers could come true, then gods above… please… allow Tama to grant everyone else’s wishes.
