“Forgetting about our mistakes and our wounds isn’t enough to make them disappear.”

We didn’t say good bye. But we knew it would be the end if we were apart.

People can’t be just tied together. They have to connect. Otherwise, they’ll find themselves bound hand and foot.

Please leave me something…even one memory would be enough.

If you don’t fight for him, you lose! Fight for him! ~Nana Osaki

I learned that from Nana. But rainy days still make my cheeks wet with tears, even now. It was pouring, on that rainy day.

Now I remember every time I was with Shouji I felt better. You hugged me secretly with your heart, didn’t you? Now I want you to embrace me with all that warmth, with all your strength.

People say love can be developed, but in the end, the only person you love is yourself. That’s why you choose to love someone who can please you the most.

I may call it jealousy, or may be anxiety and moreover, need. Even now I’m anxious at times because when I am with Ren, everything around feels like a dream.

You know Hachi, your life depends only on ourselves. I’m still convinced about this… But I’ve also learned to accept that people… don’t all become as strong, and it made me kinder than before.

In the world of art, all things are possible.–George from Paradise Kiss

Whatever Yasu loves, I love too. That’s the secret of love.

I never realized how much you hurt.

It takes a lot of strength to hold onto and care for the things we love, so why is it that god seems to have made humans unable to conjure up that degree of power and love?

Don’t do stuff that freaks him out, like what you’re doing now. Do something that makes him happy.

I want to be spoiled like a child. Cry to my heart’s content. But I can only suppress my feelings.

Being alone and being lonely are two different things. (Yasu)
