Death's Voice

To whom it may concern,

In the hushed corridors of our existence, where laughter once echoed, now resides a specter of memories. Amei, my sister, once a beacon of warmth, now stands as an enigma veiled in silence.

The melody of her laughter has faded, replaced by an unfathomable ailment that steals her voice and extinguishes her light. In my desperate attempts to shield her, I unknowingly severed her ties to life itself.

In the midst of this turmoil, a revelation surfaces—the weight of my own inadequacies, my misguided attempts to understand her suffering. As time slips through our fingers, I unearth cryptic tokens, silent testaments of her resilience.

This letter is my confession, a whisper through the shadows, a plea for redemption.
