Playing Secrets in Persona

Sumire Yoshizawa tried very hard to recall what happened that day. The more she recalled, the more she blamed herself for why that day turned out like that.

But now it was useless to complain about her past self.

Sumire Yoshizawa knew that she was controlled by jealousy at the time. Although she did not do anything excessive to her sister, because her brain could not hear her sister’s voice, she did not notice the truck rushing towards her. If she had not been immersed in her own world at the time, she would not have had a car accident, let alone her sister would not have had to sacrifice her life to save her.

In the past, these were things Sumire Yoshizawa wanted to avoid.

But now Sumire Yoshizawa knows that there are some things that cannot be avoided, and she can only choose to face them.

“Because I was completely immersed in my own world, I didn’t hear my sister’s warning.”

“If I could hear my sister’s warning, maybe she wouldn’t have been hit by a car while trying to save me.”

“So, my sister’s car accident that day was inextricably linked to me.”

“Sumire……”

Listening to the serious and even self-loathing speech of his youngest daughter, Yoshizawa Taichi didn’t know what to say.

He always knew that his youngest daughter actually always regarded his eldest daughter as an object of admiration, and was also very concerned about participating in the new gymnastics competition with his eldest daughter.

But because of that radical mood, the youngest daughter fell into endless self-torture.

This contrast and the powerless sense of frustration may be the root cause of the youngest daughter’s self-doubt.

As a father, he is proud of having two daughters with the same talents.

He has never been biased towards his two daughters.

Since his wife died, he has been raising his two daughters alone. He always hoped that his two daughters could grow up in a healthier atmosphere, so he never put too much pressure on his two daughters, but encouraged them more.

But he still ignored the youngest daughter’s excessive concern for the new gymnastics competition. He didn’t expect that the youngest daughter would have so many emotions about losing to the eldest daughter.

If he could find out earlier, maybe he could make some changes, but everything is too late.

“It’s not your fault.”

Yoshizawa Taichi closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

As a father, he knew it was not the younger daughter’s fault. He knew even more clearly that it was not her fault that the child seemed to have forgotten about the older daughter.

The mental pressure that exceeded a person’s tolerance caused the amnesia.

If the shock was not too great, the younger daughter would not have been in such a state.

But Yoshizawa Sumire shook her head slightly.

“This is my fault. But I know that running away will not solve the problem.”

Although they have only known each other for one day, Sumire Yoshizawa has learned this from Senior Amemiya.

She admires Senior Amemiya from the bottom of her heart for facing the danger he knew was dangerous.

It was because of seeing how Senior Amemiya faced the danger that Sumire Yoshizawa recovered her lost memories and remembered her sister who had disappeared from her memory. She also understood a truth thoroughly.

Running away will never solve the problem.

It just delays the risk of the incident happening, not that the problem at that time has been solved.

Therefore, the best option is to face the trouble bravely.

That’s what Sumire Yoshizawa is doing now.

“My sister’s car accident is something I can’t avoid. The same is true for my sister’s death.”

“Forgetting about my sister might be a solution, but I don’t want to forget. I never want to forget again!”

At this moment, Sumire Yoshizawa is determined. At the same time, she also regards herself as her sister’s only anchor in this world.

She will never allow herself to lose the memory of her sister for the second time.

Sumire Yoshizawa looked up at her father.

“My sister sacrificed herself to keep me alive. I will never allow any trace of my sister to disappear.”

“I will never forget the trophies and medals my sister won, as well as the promise we made to showcase our new gymnastics at the Olympics.”

“Sumire……”

Looking at his daughter who seemed to have grown up overnight, Yoshizawa Taichi felt a little more relieved.

Kasumi’s death was undoubtedly the biggest shock to him.

His daughter, who had always been well, died in a car accident, and his younger daughter also had mental problems. This period of time was simply a huge torture for him.

Now the younger daughter’s mental state has recovered, her memory of the older daughter has also recovered, and even her own psychology has grown a lot. This may be the only happy thing for him as a father.

“Xiao Jin, it’s good that you can remember Xia’s things”

“I am glad to see that you are not always immersed in your sister’s affairs. The memory of your sister has also been restored, but if you want to realize what you said, you should work harder in the future.”

Yoshizawa Taichi was also very happy to see that his youngest daughter could recover from depression.

Although the death of his eldest daughter was still a big shock to him, it was a happy thing for him that his youngest daughter could recover her spirit.

Moreover, the youngest daughter would continue to move forward in the direction of the eldest daughter and fulfill the agreement between her and the eldest daughter. Yoshizawa Taichi could imagine that his youngest daughter’s road would be very difficult in the future, but he approved of his youngest daughter’s goal.

“So, Xiao Jin, how did you get out of this today?”

Yoshizawa Taichi naturally didn’t think that his little daughter figured it out on her own. If this was possible, maybe she wouldn’t have to wait until now.

So, Yoshizawa Taichi was sure that his little daughter met a new friend in a new environment. It was also because of this new friend that she got out of the circle of depression.

“He is a very kind senior.”

Yoshizawa Sumire did not hide anything, nor was she embarrassed, and told the matter of Senior Amamiya very straightforwardly.

“He encountered the same thing as me.”

“But the situation of my senior was different from mine. He was very brave and chose to take the initiative to face the difficulties. It was also because of the senior’s bravery that I realized that escaping is never a solution to solve problems.”

“So that’s how it is.”

Yoshizawa Taichi noticed the light in his little daughter’s eyes when she spoke, and he couldn’t help but feel grateful to the”senior” who had influenced his little daughter.」

“Maybe there will be a chance to meet you in the future”

“Yeah.”
