<h5 class="has-text-align-center">Each point of view</h5>\n My hands were trembling as I read Yui’s diary.\n There were still some of Yui’s diaries left, but this one was all I could read. If I read any more, I would lose my head.\n
To be honest, I was confused. Yui’s diary sounded like an excuse for me to decide never to trust my childhood friend again.\n If Yui and Takatsuki were going to meet alone for such a reason, she would have told me beforehand. The Yui I know would never have met alone with a man.\n And it seemed to me that the two of them were getting along well with each other as they left the hotel.\n The next day, I actually went to high school with Yui. Yui was quite normal, and until Takatsuki told me about her and Yui, I was thinking that maybe the scene was a dream.\n
While thinking this, there was also a part of me that wanted to trust Yui.\n If Yui’s diary was true, it would mean that Yui was also Takatsuki’s victim. I couldn’t help but be puzzled by these two possibilities.\n
I wanted to know if Yui was still alive, so I immediately started asking questions on social networking sites of people I used to know.\n I asked them for their names, when they committed suicide, and any other information they might have.\n
I added that I would send him a 3,000 yen gift certificate if he responded. It was as I thought. Two months after I jumped from the school building, Yui jumped from the same building at the same time I did. \n Some of them told me that they had a picture of me in their hands. They all recognized that it was the suicide of a childhood friend who had followed me.\n Takatsuki’s name was not mentioned.\n
I couldn’t think about anything for a while. And I regretted that I shouldn’t have looked into my past so strangely. \nWhat happened in my previous life was becoming a thing of the past in my mind. But when I learned about Takatsuki’s present life, read Yui’s diary, and then learned about Yui’s suicide, I almost lost my mind.\n Whatever had happened that day, there was no doubt that I had driven Yui to suicide.\n
At the very least, I want to take revenge on Takatsuki, the person who triggered all this. I couldn’t forgive Takatsuki for leading a glamorous life.\n But after all, I am a helpless high school student. What in the world can I do? I shouldn’t chase after the past any longer.
With that in mind, I erased my secret diary from my browser. I must never look at this diary again.\n
Thus, the secret diary of the two high school students who committed suicide sixteen years ago was put to sleep again.
I was unaware of it at the time. In today’s gossip-hungry, Internet-obsessed Japanese society, this diary is a more powerful weapon than any other that can drive a man like Takatsuki to his doom.\n
And I was not the only one who knew of the diary’s existence.\n
