"I see an annoying girl running towards me from the distance, waving her arms in the air like she's totally oblivious to any attention she might draw to herself. That girl is Sayori, my neighbor and good friend since we were children. You know, the kind of friend you'd never see yourself making today, but it just kind of works out because you've known each other for so long? We used to walk to school together on days like this, but starting around high school she would oversleep more and more frequently, and I would get tired of waiting up. But if she's going to chase after me like this, I almost feel better off running away. However, I just sigh and idle in front of the crosswalk and let Sayori catch up to me."

“Sayori… What I said before is true. I’m not going to let this continue. Caring about you isn’t the burden your mind is making it out to be. It’s something that makes me happy. It’s something I wouldn’t trade for anything else. So even if it takes an entire lifetime, I’m going to be by your side until you don’t feel any more pain.”

“What the hell… WHAT THE HELL?? Is this a nightmare? It.. has to be. This isn’t real. There is no way this can be real. Sayori wouldn’t do this. Everything was normal up until a few days ago. That’s why I can’t believe what my eyes are showing me…!”
