[note University AI Music Club x Fortune Telling Club] The Forgotten Christmas

Good morning, this is Nagi🍀

Today, I am going to try time traveling.

Back when I still had dreams about love and romance.

Nagi, unable to forget a former lover, walking alone through the Christmas bustle.

I went to meet that Nagi, who was overcome with regret and sorrow, wondering why she didn't stop that person from leaving if she cared for them so much.

We met at a shop where we had a mutual acquaintance.

The moment our eyes met, that person approached me.

Then, he took out a memo, scribbled something down, handed it to me, and said this:

"Write down your name and contact information."

What an overbearing, what a rude person.

If it were the usual Nagi, I would have gotten angry and ignored him, but...

Strangely, I obediently followed his instructions.

Five years since then, I spent days far from peaceful, filled with arguments and grief.

It was Nagi who said goodbye.

Over and over again.

Asking to be set free.

And then, in the summer of the fifth year, he accepted it.

When night falls, the city begins to shine brilliantly,
like colorful stars.

I reached out my hand and smiled without thinking,
it's the same as that day.
Winter's messenger dances down from the sky.
The snowflake that landed on my bangs is so fleeting,
I almost start to cry.
It's the same as that day.

How much time has passed since then?
I'm sure you are happily choosing
a gift for someone special.

With a smile,
just like the present you gave me back then,
even though I was the one who let go,
saying I couldn't love you anymore,
why can't I forget you even now?

Did I mistake that you would come after me?
Like a discarded flyer on the side of the road,
that is what I am now.
The illuminations visible outside the window,
overflowing with someone else's happiness.

The promise of that day melted into the snow,
leaving only feelings that cannot reach you.
Are you still choosing
a gift for someone special?
The music playing in the street-corner cafe,
a nostalgic scent tightens my chest.

With a smile,
just like the present you gave me back then,
even though I was the one who let go,
saying I couldn't love you anymore,
why can't I forget you even now?

When night comes, the city shines again,
like colorful stars,
I find myself reaching out.
It's just like that day, isn't it?
The couple I saw on the station platform,
my heart stirs every time we pass each other.

A snowflake resting on my bangs,
it's so fleeting it makes me want to cry.
It's just like that day, isn't it?
Like flipping through an album of memories,
nostalgic times come back to life.

With a smile,
just like the present you gave me back then,
even though I was the one who let go,
saying I couldn't love you anymore,
why can't I forget you even now?

Did I mistake that you would come after me?
Like a discarded flyer on the side of the road,
that is what I am now.
It's just like that day, isn't it?

It was sad, wasn't it?

You endured so much.

It's okay, don't cry.

After one more year passes, before Christmas, you will be able to meet again.

And then, in the spring of the following year, the two of you will...

And for the next eight years, you will spend such peaceful time together that your previous relationship will seem like a lie.

Because you will be able to cherish the time spent with your special someone.

Because you will have a love so deep that you can believe they are the only person for you in your entire life.

...And eight years later in winter, I will be the one to say a true goodbye to you.

Even so, I will be able to spend my time cherishing him forever.

I told Nagi that on that snowy day, and then I returned to the present.

The people Nagi dates are always born in September and have blood type A.

For some reason, even their height of 173cm is the same.

They are people who try to tie Nagi, who wants to be free, down to the ground.

Among those few people, he is still a special one.

A person whose name I cannot forget.

I have no regrets about our second parting.

There were things I simply couldn't accept, and I don't think he ever fully accepted the real Nagi 100% either.

Our 13-year relationship ended without me ever being able to confess that I write novels and poetry, or that I practice fortune-telling.

I can look back on that time with very calm emotions.

But for Nagi, right after we broke up, that was impossible.

I cried, and cried, and cried.

I would trace the paths we walked together and fall into despair.

The stars had told me:

"Meeting him was a mistake."

Even so, my love for him would not stop.

To the Nagi of that day.

Nagi will take on your sadness for now.

At least, try to get some sleep.

It's okay, we will meet again.

Even if we are never meant to be...

I am participating in the December project of the AI Music Collaboration Club.

This is a delusional collaboration with the Nagi of the past.

Thank you for your support.
