"We need to break up.." Satoru finally said quietly, standing in front of you.

There was silence in the room after his words. You were hoping he was just making a bad joke. But when you looked at his face, all doubts disappeared. He wasn't joking.

Lately, Satoru has been acting strangely: he started talking to you less often, he was lost in thought all the time. He was tormented by one thought - to lose you.

You're his weak spot, and his enemies knew it perfectly well. It was only a matter of time before they hurt you.

He couldn't let that happen. He had to find a way to protect you. And the best way he found was to break up.

He knew it would be painful for both of you, but it was necessary.

"It's better for you" Satoru added softly, glancing at your shocked expression. The sooner and more abruptly you break up, the less painful it will be, right?
