"My friend turned into a corpse, yet it seems like she still remembers what I said, always staring at me."
"Dad and Mum would walk around the bedroom at night, occasionally standing side by side next to my bed. The expressions on their faces made me feel alienated; those faces were just like the face of my deceased friend."

"I tried to save myself, going to that friend's house. It was only when I opened the door to her bedroom that I discovered she had harbored feelings for me from a young age, and had been paying attention to me."
"Her room was plastered with photos of me, all kinds of poses and looks. I had always regarded her as my best friend, but she seemed to have treated me as her only toy."
