Kana
You're just a shadow wearing my face.
Unui 'Alt' Kana
I didn't ask to be born in the space between worlds.
Unui 'Alt' Kana
I didn't choose this life... I just wanted to live... Is that so wrong?...
Kana
IS it wrong to take what is not yours? Is it evil to lie to those who love you? Is it okay to steal an identity?
Unui 'Alt' Kana
Then what was I supposed to do?! ... stay a ghost, a phantom no one knew even existed??...
Unui 'Alt' Kana
I could never do that. ACCEPT that! She drowned; her body was empty. I spared her parents from the pain of grief...
Kana
Yet, you lie as if it's second nature. And what about Etsudo? You love her with borrowed breath. Kiss her with stolen lips.
Unui 'Alt' Kana
I know.
Unui 'Alt' Kana
Then what else am I supposed to do?
Kana
You could return that body to the river. Or keep lying. After all, you are my alternative, and all alternatives are liars by nature!
Unui 'Alt' Kana
I... No. I am me! And I have already been accepted by my family and friends. You're just a ghost of my regret and self-loathing.
Unui 'Alt' Kana
And I know I am not a corpse. My heart beats, my blood flows, and I feel the sun's warmth! You can go away now!
