Chapter 6: My Lilac's Goodbye

I saw a child in every one of my dreams, she is in the real world. It's spring… And her goodbye to me and the Real World.

Mako is standing by a tree watching.

Child: The world's edge. Sharply angled. A troubled outsider

Shinji: They have no idea. Above their lowered heads, what the bright lights are.

Shining towards.

Child: It's fine to take your time. But I hope you notice, at last, the only you. 

Mako: Don't forget among the cloudy dark, you're a star painted with a left hand. 

Child: Can't you see how beautiful true uniqueness can be?

Shinji: Mako...

Child: Your weary face looks like someone powered you off.

Shinji: The heartbeat went too quiet

Mako: The glow you have

Child: The imagination, identities on a diet.

Mako: It's fine to scowl but I wish you could smile, at least. 

Shinji: An autograph written in steps. A drawing sketched in sullen steps

Child: The path to meet you solely

Shinji: The path along the dotted line

Mako: Don't forget during the long winter, a flower can bloom between the frozen cracks

Child: Can't you see how beautiful tomorrow's spring is?

I smile knowing there is someone who supports me, even to my sad times.

I saw Vincent on the same tree, he's the one who bullied me before with Elizabeth.

Shinji: Hi there, say hi without any fuss.

Vincent: It's me, it's me, nothing different

Shinji: What is it these days, my gossip. What's with that expression? Don't you know how to feel?

Vincent: Hey!

Mako: Shut up, let her talk.

Vincent: Do you know what you're saying? 

Shinji: Am I wrong? Am I the only one bad again? Ah, you don't know yet.

Kai: Why is everyone so down? What's the problem, say something? It's so icy here. 

Vincent: Why is your sister here?

Kai: Is this the trend these days? Why is everyone so boring? I guess I'm the same.

Mako: Kai… 

Kai: A lot of feelings going on at 2 pm

Mako: What happened?

Kai: I've been criticized so much, I have indigestion.

Shinji: Hm?

Kai: Everyone's attempting so hard to scorn me. If they shatter me down, does it nourish them?

Vincent: No of course. Wait… why are you saying this?

Kai: I'm lonely, what do I do? I swallowed up even the hate. I have no courage to get angry, no time either.

Shinji: What happened? Tell me… Please.

Kid: Oh look here's the loser with her big sister.

Kid2: They both look like losers.

I hear them laughing at us. I know now why she is always down.

Kai: What is so disconcerting for you? Just go on your way. What's wrong with everyone?

Kid: You're just a loser who wants attention!

Shinji: Kai, I'm saying this for you. Don't torture yourself. Why are you trying so hard? You're already beautiful.

Kid3: Look at these two losers supporting each other!

Kai: No frame, no fake. My head hurts.

Kid: Just listen first… 

Kai: If you really wanna see me cry. Fine, here are some tears.

Kid: She cried! What a loser!

Kai: I have no courage to get mad, no justification either. Don't poison your heart. It's too early to be violent.

Kid2: Why doesn't this loser ever get angry?

Shinji: You shouldn't do whatever you want.

Kid3: Older loser is talking to us now… 

Child: How can a momentary trembling quietly cover your eyes?

Kid: Yo! Why does this kid look like her?

Child: Because I am her… 

Shinji: You only think about yourself as if that's so natural.

Kai: I foolishly adjusted to you and it's torturing me. Making me lonely till the end.

Kid: You believed us! Ya, little loser!

I saw Kai's eyes turn black. 

Kai: I have nothing to say, go away!

What more can be said? Even if I get mad, that only hurts my lips.

Mako's mind: She said the same things as her! How?

Kai: My cooled-down head can't understand your attitude.

Kid: You never will! 

Kai: Every day, this is repeated. If you have authority over my kindness. There's something wrong with that.

Kid3: She talked back! 

Kid: How dare you!

Kai: Why are you so surprised? This is pretty obvious. I got mad, it hurts my lips.

Kid: Tch… 

Kai: I'm ready to go on my way.

Kid: You're still a kid!

Kai: You're no fun, just be with yourself.

Kid: Hah! I knew it! 

Kai: Even if there are regrets. I wanna do whatever I want. 

Kid: Let's leave. What? Hey!

Kai: Surrounded by a sharp secret. Behind a veil, hush.

Kid: Hey! What are you doing?

Kai: Oh you're always like, love is a game. You say it's light and easily enjoyed.

Kid: Because it is!

I now realize it was Miroui, that one boy she likes.

Kai: Why do you keep saying these bad things? Trying to avoid me?

Miroui:  What?! N-no I'm not!

I see him blush a little. A little tsundere vibe I guess…

Kai: A dazzling secret, you can't turn away from it anymore. 

Miroui: Love is a game! I don't believe in it!

Kai: Oh you still say, 'love is a game'. You tell me but your voice is shaking. Past the playful eyes, I see you, not knowing what to do.

Miroui: um… 

Kai: You never had this deep of a dream before. You can't control it.

Miroui: Don't figure it out if I haven't told you. 

Kai: That your feelings are growing for me. Like spilled ice cream? I might just melt.

Miroui: How did you read my mind?

Shinji: I tell ya, that's the power of Zoa and his wife. Kuro-san's Mind reading and persuasion and Rio's Galaxy Barrier.

Miroui: What?!

And… She snapped back.

Kai: Oh! So sorry! I was outta control! I'm very sorry!

Miroui: What?

Shinji: She falls in love so easily.

Kai: It's strange, you're different. I'll put a stop to this game.

Miroui: I'll leave now!

Mako: Me too.

Vincent: See ya!

Kai: I'll go now, this was so awkward!

Child: My Lilac, I will miss you… Could this last goodbye be any sweeter or more perfect? 

Shinji: Take good care of our last moment on the page

She's right, could this last goodbye be any sweeter or more perfect? 

Child: Oh Lilac, the day under the petals canopy.

Shinji: This ending matches right, it's like the falling petals.

Child: Our ivory-colored spring climax, how glorious it is!

Shinji: Like the warm breeze.

Child: Flooding with tenderness makes me hum.

Child: Will you forget me someday? Will you forget our faces and the scent of today?

Shinji: No, but your words make me cry, it's like we're destined to part.

Child: We are… I'm sorry, but I believe that we will meet again, My Lilac…

Shinji: Goodbye…

Child: Goodbye…

Her body fades away and now… I find myself lonely again.
