I walked in and headed for the dressing table in Vanya's room. I immediately put it on as soon as I saw it. I put it back. Wait a minute... what is that?

I was surprised to see a transparent package and some syringes. I'm assuming it's some antidepressant pills and sedatives. God, what happened to Vanya?

I walked back to the edge of the pool as if nothing had happened. After crying for a while. Of course, I cried. My fear is when I become a person who is not useful for the people closest to me. That's what scares me to have close friends.

Now, I feel like a failure as a friend. Then, how do I tell Rossa? I have to wait for the right time. But it looks like it should be soon. And also, it seems that my discovery earlier also answered why Vanya never wanted to sleep in the same room as us.

“Watch the sun go down!” Vanya smiled happily, while I looked at her worriedly.

"Letha, now is not the time to daydream. Let's take a photo!"

We took a photo together. Beautiful photo. The silhouettes of the three of us against a sunset backdrop.

"Now it's time for dinner! Let's go to the dining room. I'm sure they have prepared a lot of meat for us," Vanya's parents did have two chefs in this inn.

And sure enough. Everything has been served. We were a bit disappointed. Because we hope to grill the meat together. But it looks like the chefs were cooking it right away.

"I'm sorry, even though I told them this afternoon. Should we buy some more meat for us to grill?" Vanya seemed to feel bad for us.

"No need, isn't this good? We just have to eat it."
