Darling!
It's our third night together!

You did great! Thanks to our previous efforts, things are working as planned!

There's almost a full passage now. I'd say we are in the halfway point!

I have another story for you tonight. But please, please be careful! Because this one... is different. 

▔▔▔▔
We are back in Mind Harbor.
For this story, you have a home in the residential district. You lived here your whole life!

It's a quiet little place, and you have wonderful memories of growing up in this neighborhood!

And during childhood, you also had a special someone by your side...

▔▔▔▔
And that person was Aoi Mizuno.
The japanese girl that lived next door.

She was a gentle, caring presence in your younger days. The girl that followed you around, patched your knees when you got hurt, played games with you...

She was your childhood friend. It's hard to imagine a day you didn't spend together.

Then, one day, you had to say goodbye.
Aoi announced that she was moving. Her father had received a job opportunity some place far away.

But she promised she would come back for you, one day.

And she did.

Okay, okay... I found six entry points. 
But... there's something wrong.

They all look identical.
Yet... they aren't.

When it comes to you, the future is usually malleable but this time... it seems like the past is also.

I have a bad feeling about this.

I think this one might be more dangerous than whatever you've faced before. Please, be careful. Okay?

Darling, listen to me.
With each night, we get closer and closer to each other.

But it also gets more dangerous.

Please, be really careful with your choices. And pick wisely.

They might seem identical, but they are not.

But I know you'll pull through this. You always do. My Darling. My Love. My God.
