If our meeting was destined to be our trial, would you regret it? ... If my ending is to disappear from this world, then what did my existence mean? ... Even if I have to stop at nothing... I want to live in this world. Only by living can I possess anything. Once I disappear, not even despair will remain. Looking back at this story again after so many years, all I can say is, "The past really is too painful to revisit." But I noticed that someone had left me a comment, and that someone had even added this novel to their collection. Whatever the case, I feel nothing but gratitude and excitement. Even so, I still want to abandon this novel. I want to show everyone my best work, and for this one, I'll borrow a line from Rozen Maiden: "A broken doll may be smashed to pieces, but the 'love' that was given is just the same." I'm still a beginner, so I don't know how to reply to comments, but I still want to convey my gratitude to you, though we've never met.
