This song is based on a novel. I used a translation tool to translate it, and I hope you can see it.

August 15th. The sun has already set, but the air is still hot and humid. As I run up the stairs of my
apartment building, sweat is pouring out of my body.

Goodbye.

It was just a four-word message from her.

I knew immediately what it meant.

I was working at my office even though it was the Obon season, and after getting ready to leave, I rushed
to my apartment.

I found her standing on the roof of the apartment building, outside the fence, with empty eyes.

This was the fourth time I had seen her trying to jump to her death.

They say there are two kinds of

People in the world. There are two kinds of people in this world: those who are controlled by the lust for
life, or “eros,” and those who are controlled by the lust for death – “Thanatos”.

Most of the people in this world are the former, but she was undoubtedly the latter.

I knew that she was a person controlled by “Thanatos” even before I started dating her. As it should be,
we first met when I saved her from attempting suicide on the roof of our apartment building.

She was a girl who had recently moved into the same apartment building. She had a cute face with dull
eyes and full lips, but with a somewhat fragile expression on her face, she instantly stole my heart. I’m
sure it was love at first sight.
From that moment on, she and I started talking about various things, and we soon became friends. I was
working for a black company and living a lonely life by myself, and she was like an angel that had landed
from heaven.

I had one question.

Whenever she wanted to commit suicide, she would call me. Then she waits there until I come.

Wouldn’t it be more certain if she died alone, without informing anyone? I thought that maybe she was
hoping that I would stop her from killing herself and help her, just like when we first met.

That’s why I ran up the stairs of the apartment like this again.

Huh, huh.....

I reach the rooftop of the apartment building.

I found her back standing behind the fence.

“Wait...!

I jump over the fence and take her hand.

Her hand was cold against the hot and humid air.

“Let me go.

Her voice was fragile and pretty, like the sound of a bell. I liked her voice, too.

Why do you have to be so...?

I want to die soon.

Why are you...?

Because the Grim Reaper is calling me.

She can see the God of Death. She can see the Grim Reaper, which is a rare symptom in people who are
controlled by Thanatos. And the Grim Reaper can only be seen by those who are under the control of
Thanatos.

There is no such thing as the Grim

Reaper. “Why don’t you understand me?

Whenever I deny the existence of the Grim Reaper, she cries out.

It seems that the Grim Reaper has a form that is most attractive to those who see it. In other words, they
have the appearance of an ideal person.

When she was staring at the grim reaper (which looked like she was staring into the void to me), she
looked like a girl in love. It was as if she was in love with it.

I didn’t like that expression on her face.

“Don’t look at the Grim Reaper, look at

Me.

“No...!
She tried to shake off my hand, so I grabbed it forcefully.

“Ouch...!

“No! Sorry...!

But it’s your fault, isn’t it? You tried to shake my hand off. You’re not looking at me.

“The Grim Reaper wouldn’t do this...!

A blackness surges through my heart.

Why...?

Why is it that I love you so much, but you won’t look at me alone?

Somewhere in the back of my mind I thought it was ridiculous to be jealous of the Grim Reaper, but that
didn’t matter anymore.

I hate it.

I’m sick of it, too.

I’m tired of it.

I’m tired, too.

I want to die now.

I want to die, too!

Just then, she looked up.

She was smiling at me.

As soon as I saw her smiling face, I suddenly felt the blackness in my heart disappear.

I thought, “Could this be it?

“You finally... noticed?

“Yeah...I finally understand.

“Really...? I’m glad.

Oh, I see.

The reason why you called me every time you tried to kill yourself wasn’t because you wanted me to
save you.

You wanted to take me with you.

She was the “Grim Reaper” for me.

A cool breeze blew through the air. Before I knew it, I didn’t feel the heat and humidity anymore.

Shall we go then?
“Yeah, let’s go.

You and I holding hands.

You and I, holding hands, ran toward the night sky to escape the frustration that this world brought us.

As if to escape the frustration that this world brings to us, we ran towards the night sky.

They both fell from top and the boy died... but the girl didn’t. Because she never existed. The boy was
the one suffering from Thanatos and the girl was her grim reaper.
