DEAR
Matsuda hands Light an envelope sealed with a sticker in the shape of a pink rose. The front bears just his name.

He slides a finger under the adhesive, pries the sticker loose, and coaxes out a folded-over piece of stationery blanketed in his sister’s clean, careful handwriting.

Dear Light,

I hope everything’s okay! We haven’t heard from you in more than a week now, and we get really worried. With Kira out there, you never know what could happen, and we’re really scared sometimes. We always ask the mailman if he’s sure there’s nothing from you. Mom cries when Dad calls, I don’t know exactly why. It shows that he’s alive, after all, right?

I’m doing okay in school, though it’s a lot harder without my favorite tutor! Mom doesn’t really bother me about it, though. I think it’s because she doesn’t want to think about what you’d say. Which would probably be that I’m just not working hard enough, unlike somebody I know!

I guess everything is okay with us, or all the important things anyway. The house is really quiet and empty, like we’ve shrunk, or maybe because you and I aren’t yelling at each other anymore. I’m forgetting what your yell sounds like, and your laugh too.

I miss it. I miss you.

Be safe and please come home soon.

Pretty please?

Love always, Sayu

It is the only time in three months chained together, in three months of twenty-four-hour proximity, that L sees Light Yagami cry.
