"I'm sorry that a promise to go to see cherry blossoms together couldn't come true forever."
He burst into tears.
Now it is the season again.
He is seeing beautiful cherry blossoms.
Through the window from his bed.
But he is not alone.
She is always in his heart.
They are still fighting together against AIDS.
In the Test Room

"Next please."
A high school girl came in.
She looked upset.
She began to speak firstly.
"Today I am absent from school.
But my mom thinks I am in school now.
I can not tell a truth that I want to take a test for HIV.
So..."
"Do not worry.
You don't need to tell any information,
even your name."
"Oh, I didn't know that."
"So it can be a secret between only you and me.
You can just take a test.
Are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm okay now."
She smiled.
"Now let's begin"
A young man came in.
He looked nervous.
He had no words during taking a test.
After the test,
he asked one thing.
"How much?"
"You don't need to pay money.
You can just take a test."
"Thanks."
He made a little bow.
Then he went out.
There is a sign board on the wall.
WE DON'T NEED YOUR NAME.
WE DON'T NEED FEES.
YOU CAN JUST TAKE A TEST.
YOU CAN SAVE YOUR PARTNER.
