-Sad story
※I recommend not to watch this if you are uncomfortable with informal speech(?)※
Before we begin, I'll tell you this... I really thought about it a lot... Please, listen to me, and I hope you guys take good care of your friends as I tell this story... Okay? ActuallyI'm really oblivious... but I had a really good and comfortable friend. We'd been friends for nine years, and we went to the same school from first grade to third grade. We were super close. But because of our grades, we ended up going to different high schools. I went to a prestigious school with a good reputation, and my friend went to a regular high school. We were both busy studying, so we didn't really keep in touch. I just didn't think much of it.
But it wasn't supposed to end like this...
I thought my friend was out of touch because he was busy studying and making new friends. I thought he was finally coming to his senses and studying, even though we usually kept in touch and had a lot of fun together. But it turned out that wasn't the case. And then, during summer vacation, when I first met him after he became a high school student, we hung out and he was just the same, so I didn't realize it...
I was being bullied at school.
Actually, I was a kid who was oblivious and bright, but would really tease the bad kids and give them a good education.. that kind of kid? But some kid had ill feelings toward me and my friend and bullied my friend who was kinder and weaker than me without me knowing.It turned out that the kid went to the same school as my friend. Since I wasn't around, he started bullying my friend, spreading bad rumors and secretly picking on him. I think that's why being cautious is important. If I found out that my friend was being bullied, I didn't say anything because I was afraid that I would feel guilty.
Eventually, my friend couldn't stand it anymore and committed suicide.
I found out about this through the will, and I was more sad and angry than anyone else. My parents and my friend's parents said it wasn't my fault, but still, still, if only I had asked my friend if she was okay, if she was doing well... If only I had worried a little when I couldn't reach her... If only I hadn't brushed it off... Would you be by my side?
