Miku: Rin-Chan, you haven't seen your brother in a week. You should go check on him.

Rin: No. He's a murderer. I want nothing to do with him.

Miku: But, you-

Rin: LEAVE ME ALONE.

Miku: Okay.

At the hospital

Miku: Thanks guys for coming with me.

Mako: It's no problem.

Kaito: I'd visit him anytime.

Maki: You here for Len?

Miku: Yeah. Rin-Chan didn't want to come.

Maki: I'm sorry to say this, but...he's in a coma.

Hanayo: Eh?! What happened?!

Maki: *sigh* Two days ago, he tried to commit suicide by overdosing. Instead of killing him, it just put him in a coma. There's a chance that he won't wake up.

Kanan: You can't be serious...

Maki: I'm not kidding.

Yoshino: We have to tell Rin about this.

Maki: I'll just call her. You guys can go.

Hanayo: Okay.

Back at home

Rin: That serves him right. I hope he dies!

Mimorin: Rin, you mustn't think such things about your-

Rin: I don't need to hear it. He murdered our Master!

Harupopo: He didn't mean to kill him.

Kaede: Isn't that called manslaughter?

Pile: Yeah.

Rin: It doesn't matter. Len deserves it.

Miku: I might as well be there for him, since his own SISTER won't do it.

Rin: Hmmph.

Miku-Miku-Mii: You know, ya better figure out a way to get back to your time before something bad happens. After all, if you stay here for too long, you might change something.

Miku: Wouldn't that apply if I went to the past?

Miku-Miku-Mii: I dunno. But really, get back to your own time.

Miku: I'm working on that.

Miku-Miku-Mii: Hurry.

Karenka: Miku, are you alright?

Miku: I-I'm fine. Why?

Karenka: You look stressed.

Miku: It's nothing.

Karenka: If you say so.

Nozomu: I'm worried about Rin. It's not like her brother meant to do that or anything.

Nozomi: Yeah. It seems that she got the wrong idea.

Neru: She's just a jerk.

Teto: Neru-Chan!

Neru: What? It's true. After all, she probably wasn't listening when he confessed.

Kotone: You've got a point there.

Nozomi: We have to continue to look after him. *holds up some cards* He'll wake up eventually. That's what the cards tell me.

Kuro: See? Everything will be alright.

Two weeks later

Rin: I told you, I don't want to come here!

Honoka: You're doing it whether you like it or not!

Maki: Guys, guys! You're just in time!

Miku: For what?

Rin: To talk to a corpse.

Kaito: Shut up, Rin.

Maki: No. He's awake!

Others: EH?!

Maki: It's true!

Haku: What about the visiting hours?

Hikaru: I-It took us a long time to drag Rin here.

Maki: That doesn't matter now. You can go see him.

In a hospital room

Mitsuki: Hello? Is anyone in here?

Len: ...What?

Kaito: *hugs Len* LEN-KUN, DON'T DO THAT AGAIN. YOU SCARED ME!

Len: You're hurting me!

Kaito: *lets go* Oops, sorry.

Tsukasa: What happened? What drove you to try to kill yourself?

Len: It's...because of her! *points at Rin*

Rin: Why me?

Len: Have you forgotten all those insults you threw at me? Things like, "You killed Master!", or, "Len, you murderer!" You seem to have forgotten that I have feelings too.

Rin: But you did kill him!

Len: Not on purpose! I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I should've just not told you. All of you were better off wondering what happened to him anyway.

Anju: No, we weren't!

Len: Maybe you weren't, but Rin was. I should've known...the one I literally can't live without wants me to die. That's just fucked up.

Rin-Chan: Len-Kyun, you really don't have to feel this way.

Len: I'm sorry, but if Rin wants me to perish that badly, I'll do it. I don't deserve to go on living anymore.

Rin: That's right. You should just rot and die! I never needed you. You're nothing but a burden!

Luka: Rin!

Len: She's right. Now, if you all would be so kind, leave.

Risa: But-

Len: Go.

Arisu: Just let us-

Len: GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!

Others: *leaves*

Outside the room

Hiyori: This is terrible! What is he winds up trying to kill himself again? What if he does, and succeeds?

Neru: I bet he's crying right now.

Misao: Everyone, shut up.

*distinct sobbing*

Neru: Called it.

Miku: E-everyone, you can go home. I'll catch up.

Sonoko: Okay.

Others: *leaves*

Miku: *comes back in* Len-Kun?

Len: What do you want?

Miku: I'm sorry about Rin-Chan.

Len: Don't be sorry. This is my problem, and I should deal with it. If she wants me to die, so be it. I'll grant her wish.

Miku: You don't have to do that.

Len: What am I supposed to do? I will never be perfect, no matter how much I try.

Miku: Nobody's perfect.

Len: *sigh* Miku, you've always been like a sister to me. You've always been there, and I'm not able to return the favor.

Miku: W-why're you saying that?

Len: In case I don't make it.

Miku: ...

Len: It's getting late. You should go now.

Miku: Will you be okay?

Len: I'll be fine. Now, go.

Miku: Okay. *leaves*

Miku-Miku-Mii: You should hurry.

Miku: I know. I have to find a way to get back to the present before something else happens. I'll just think about it on the way home.
