Chapter Text
Hi, my name is Ame, I'm sure that my sister, Yuki, has told you the story of our lives so far, when we were born, our childhoods, our 'coming of age' so to speak, and - of course - who our parents are, or were at least... Anyway, I just wanted to tell you about what happened after we left home, after she went to middle school and after mother let me live in the forest, although, this will be just about me, I don't know anything about my sister anymore, not after so long.
Before we start the story that I want to tell you, I want to go back six years, back before sister left...
Five months passed since the day I found my mother in the woods and brought her to safety, and I had been living in the forest, protecting the animals that lived in it the entire time. That's when decided to return home very briefly to see how mother and Yuki were holding up, much to mothers delight, that is. But soon after I arrived, I find out that my sister is only days away from moving into a dorm in her new middle school and away from mom. I feel sad for my mother, living here all alone with only my fathers drivers license to keep her company. But I know that I can't help that, I have new responsibilities now, I have someone that I care for deeply and I can't leave them... I quickly say my goodbyes and dash off into the woods before sister comes home from Souhei's house, not wanting to face her then, the cuts she inflicted on me are still too deep. I swear I could hear my mother shout something to me as I ran, yet I ignored it and keep going.
I lived happily in the woods for a full six years after then, not once visiting my mother or sister again, I do regret that, but now that I have grown more and I have my own responsibilities, I need help... I need my mothers help...
