Chapter 26
Disclaimer: Not mine.
I’ve finished! I can’t believe it...
(26)
Do you know the most dreadful words of the world?
Daisuke knew them all too well but he repeated them over and over in his mind whenever he was thinking about his failure.
If only...
For Daisuke those two words described everything. If only he had looked after Osamu then everything would be alright.
The red-haired boy sighed and turned back to his sister. Jun was standing in the doorframe, watching her brother for almost two hours now and never saying anything. She knew what he had done and although she couldn’t understand why he never called the police she tried to comfort him.
“I’m a murderer.”
Jun closed her eyes. Like all the others she had read the articles, had seen the news on the TV about the mysterious accident of the genius Ichijouji Osamu and like everyone else she had wondered about what might have happened to the boy.
Now she knew.
“You didn’t know. It was an accident.”
“I should have called the police. Instead of doing the right thing I tried to protect Ken and look at what it got me. He’s gone. He wouldn’t even talk to me when I tried to phone him and he’s right. I’m responsible for Osamu’s death.”
His sister shook her head. “No, you’re not. It. Was. An. Accident. Why can’t you forgive yourself? No-one knew that they were about to break down the old houses in those dirty little side street. You hit him, he lost consciousness. That he was inside the house as it came down is a terrible accident but nothing more nothing less. Actually its the fault of the labourers checking the house for homeless people. It was their task to find him.”
She was right and deep down his heart he knew it but her brother wasn’t ready to forgive himself. Too much had happened. After returning Ken to his parents they learned about Osamu’s fate and all he remembered was the hurt look in Ken’s eyes, the silent reproach in his every move. Everyday Ken was visiting his brothers grave and buried himself in his homework. Soon the newspapers talked about the new-born genius and finally Daisuke did the only thing he could do: he left.
“You’re a fool.”
Daisuke turned his back on Jun and stared at the picture in his hand. Ken was smiling at him and this was more than he deserved. Because of his stupid actions even out of his grave Osamu possessed the soul of his brother.
Ken was his and his alone and Daisuke was a fool to believe he ever had a chance on winning.
“Davis, please.”
If only I could believe you. If only I could talk to Ken one more time. It would change nothing but at least I could try.
I will visit him tomorrow.
Maybe.
If only I can find enough courage to do so.
If only...
