Is it because you're living on another world? I hear that long-distance relationships are hard to maintain, especially when both parties lead busy lifestyles.
Sort of... that's part of it. It's more because our world was cut off from the community from a whole year. I was off-world at the time, so I didn't know...it was only a week or something to me. But the next time I saw Mitsuru, she was a year older.
It was just before you and the others from Inaba started joining the community.
Actually... I was there for that. The same thing happened to Minato-kun. I remember because he showed me about worldhopping just prior to when it happened.
I see. So she moved on without you. Not that there was anything you could do about it.
...it's not so different from what's happening with my friend. I really hate this community sometimes.
At least she still remembers you, so you still have that friendship, even if you've lost touch with one another.
I suppose that's why I was always so reluctant to make friends in the first place. Because I was always terrified of waiting for that time when we eventually would part ways...
Nothing could ever stop us from being friends. Not really...not after everything we've been through together. Even if we didn't see each other for years, Mitsuru will always be my friend.
And...it's worth it. Having friends... even if it hurts sometimes, and even if you lose them. It's better than being alone all the time, Naoto-kun.
I suppose so... I lost Minato-kun once, as a child, and I eventually found him again here, years later. Even though we forgot about one another, as soon as I saw him in person, all those memories we shared as children came flooding back to me. I hope that we'll be able to make new memories together...
I'm sorry to hear that, Akihiko-san.

Seems you're not the only one mending a broken heart.

Are you okay?

Anyway, you don't have to pretend you didn't see it. We both know you did.

Um... Is there anything I can do to help?

I dunno...no, really, I'm okay. I mean, it was pretty much mutual.
