"Hi, Koko-chan, its me. I know I'm probably just getting a little anxious for nothing, but I was just hoping to talk to you for a bit. You sounded so out of it last time we spoke, and I know you're probably just busy, but I've missed how much you used to text back. Tomorrow's a big day for you though, and I know you said you've been sleeping a lot more, so make sure you're rested, okay? You're probably sleeping now, but just… just call me when you're home tomorrow. Love you."

"Hey Koto, its me again. You didn't call yesterday, and you only sent one message too, and I'm starting to get worried. Please, just get back to me when you can, alright? You know I love you, and I miss you, but I just need to make sure you're okay. Call me. Please?"

"Kotone, I really need you to pick up. I don't know what's happening, and I can't even get in contact with your friends. The school's closed for break, and I just, I need to know you're okay. Even if, even if it's something I did, I just want to know. Please, Koko, just pick up the phone."

"For the last time, Kotone, this is serious. I don't have any of your friends' numbers and I'm worried about you. I…I saw something on the news, but it can't be right. I won't, I can't… Its not right. So please, just hurry up and call me back. I've got so much I want to talk to you about, and I know you must be going through a lot, seeing your friends move away. So let's talk, okay? Just… Just please, talk to me. That's all I want.

"I miss you Koko. I wanna hear your voice. I just, I just wanna hear anything. I, god, I thought I was okay on my own, because I knew you were always there, but I… I can't stop crying. I'm scared. You're so far away, and I don't know if anything happened, and I want to be there for you. You have to be there Koko. Please. I miss you."

"Kotone, I'm about to board the train to Iwatodai. I know, I'm probably overreacting, but I… I saw something about school, and it can't… I can't… please be there. Just send me a message, I, I need to know you're there. They have to be wrong, right Koko? You-you'll be there, won't you? My train's just about here, so please, just wait for me. I love you so much. So I'll be there, like you were for me. I promise."

"Hello, Hasegawa-san. My name is Aigis. I… lived with Kotone. She was, special, to me. You and I never spoke much, but I understand how much she meant, no, means, to you. I would be willing to tell you what has happened when you arrive, as I am aware you will not have service aboard the train. I have asked my friend, Mitsuru-san, to arrange a driver to take you to the dorms from the station. I believe there are things you should see, and that you should know, and I do sincerely wish I could bring good news, but I…"
"…I am so sorry."
"There is so much here about you, and I have heard nothing but the best. I only know that you made her every day happier, so please, do not hesitate to contact me if there's anything more I can do. Safe travels."
