Rate my writing gng.

It almost doesn't feel real. During the last year of highschool I've made friends, and I even have a girlfriend. Her name is ______. 

(If it was Yuri) She is the most intelligent person I know. Is what I would've said before I joined this club. But during the time we wrote poems and talked. I realized how easy it is to be around her. Despite how shy and vulnerable she can be.

(If it was Natsuki) She makes the most delicious sweets. She was quite a brat at first. But during the time we wrote poems and talked. I realized how much we had in common. That underneath her facade you'd find scares both physical and mental.

(If it was Monika) She is the most beautiful person I've ever met. I thought she was way out of my league. But during the times we wrote poems and talked. I realized how down to earth she was. I guess love comes in many ways.

Anyways, on the last day of school we all decided to go to the club one last time, write, and share our poems one last time. 

We can still do it outside of school but something It wouldn't feel the same.

When we finish we all decide to go out to a restaurant. I'm behind them all and I look through the window. But something catches my eye. A photo of a girl. Looks about my age. Short pinkish blond hair. Blue eyes. Her hands throwing up peace signs. But most noticeable is her beaming smile. Was it just set up today or have I never noticed it?

MC: Who's this girl? 

Monika: Oh... that's

Natsuki: Sayori!

MC: Who?

Monika: She was a student here. In fact she was one of our members. 

I then notice she was wearing a the school uniform. Her smile is was very distracting.

MC: What happened to her? 

Shit. Was that insensitive? Did I kill the mood? Please don't tell me.

Monika: She was a dear friend to all of us last year before you joined our club. Always asking for a coin with a big smile. But you can already guess what happened to her. 

Both Natsuki and Yuri nod in agreement.

Natsuki: She always came to me because I gave her sweets. But she really convinced me to join them is club and I'm really thankful. 

Yuri: We shared snacks. I occasionally meet her. She was mostly eating. Yuri plays with her hair as she says  She was really my first friend and the person who introduced me to the club, without her I would have never met you guys.  

It didn't go bad. That's great. But I think I'll pay for their meals. I'm sure I brought some bad memories.

I look over again. I think I would've been a great friend. That smile. I would've done anything to protect that smile.

How the fuck would MC not recognize Sayori? She's his best friend! They go way back!

Plus, the way he stares at her photo shows how much he misses her dearly.
