I made a mistake in the order of updates, I apologize.
On the 15th of the Month of Clear Water, today, I gaze at the moonlit sky alone once more.
I have been alone until now, and I will be alone from now on.
That’s fine; as long as I can remain a child, no matter how painful, difficult, or lonely it is, I won’t blame anyone, and I can live forgetting everything.
However, that was the last day I watched the full moon alone.
I will never forget, on the 4th of the Green Wind Moon, I encountered my fate.
“My name is Chrono Mao, and you are?”
I am no longer alone.
Isn’t it painful to remain a child? Isn’t it hard? Isn’t it lonely?
It was all a lie.
Such things are just hypocrisy, deceiving oneself, pretending not to notice…
But that no longer matters.
The past doesn’t matter, nothing matters at all.
Because—
“Ah, if only Lily were here, I could live in this world, not lonely at all.”
I feel the same way.
As long as you are here, only you, I can live in this world, not lonely at all.
I cannot return to the past, I cannot go back to being alone, because you are here.
Yes, that’s why, in this world, it’s enough to have just you and me.
I don’t need anything else anymore.
