28: Lost another one (forward date to May 7th morning) [voice]

[Saori was tired the other night and spent with Kaiji, skipping the Dark Hour. When Saori woke up this morning, she was the only one in bed. She snatched up her phone and looked at the contact list for a specific name.

Gone.

No. No. Damn it, not this again! First Ingrid, then the Baron, and now him....

Once she calms down, she turns on the feed.]

I know there's some people who were expecting the cafe to open soon but, it's going to be delayed for a few more days due to the past events. I'm sorry for the inconvience. It's just....

[Her voice cracks and she struggles to keep herself from crying.]

Kaiji's gone.

[She turns off the feed before anyone could hear anymore of her as she breaks down again.]

[And of course she buys it.]

I just...need a little time to recover. I knew when I went out with him, there would be a possibility either of us might completely leave here. It's just I didn't expect it like this.

Would you care to talk about it? I can meet you in person if you need someone around.

Talking like this is fine.

Saying this whole thing frustrates me is a huge understatement.

I can sympathize. The increased tempers, the rogue Personae and now the disappearances...it almost seems like whoever controls this place is trying to remind us in the worst way possible that they're in control here.

I know it won't do anything about the loss, but I am sorry to hear that someone close to you was one of the disappearances.

Pretty much. The fact we keep running into dead ends when it comes to investigating make this even worse. Even though I came back after learning how to fight without a persona and everything, I still feel helpless. I hate that I couldn't protect those I care about.

Thank you. I just need some time to recover.
