    "We’re now merely two hours away from what will be a complete week since Makoto got the news about her father."
    "Oh, and I guess Nodoka got her ass kicked as well- but that sort of pales in comparison to the emotional rollercoaster I was forced onto just minutes later."
    "Since then, things have calmed down a little."
    "Yumi was “indefinitely suspended” for attacking a fellow student."
    "Nodoka’s black eyes have started to fade back to their usual color."
    "Even Yasu has returned to normal."
    "Or...at least as normal as Yasu can possibly be."
    "I also have no idea how I would have survived this last week without Imani (Who seems to have forgiven me following the Yumi incident) seeing as she’s taken over all the clerical stuff in Makoto’s absence."
    "The only person who really {i}hasn’t{/i} shown any sign of improvement yet is Miku..."
    "Who, understandably, is decaying from the inside out knowing that the beautiful mind of her best friend is rotting away in a dark room several miles from here."
    "It’s a room that she’s spent far more time in than me."
    "It’s a room that she’s brave enough to return to while I would sooner slip back into the shadows and pretend none of this ever happened."
    "But every time I look at Makoto’s desk, that wishful illusion is suffocated out of existence."
    "And every time I watch her friend reflexively shift her gaze over to it to try and convince {i}herself{/i} this was all just some horrible dream, the truth is reinforced."

    "Sometimes, bad things happen to good people."
    "More often than not, it seems like this pattern not only continues, but aggressively ramps up with each passing day."
    "Sometimes, bad things {i}won’t{/i} stop happening to good people."
    "And while I wish that I could take these words to heart and truly feel something reminiscent of sympathy for the good person in question-"
    "I am one of those bad things."
    "And it would make no sense at all for me, burdened by my constant obsession with navel-gazing, to slight them when I am of that same ilk. "
    "I’ll remain quiet. "
    "I will wait."
    "And I will only moderately taint those that come to me with their concerns."
