She knew Charlotte wasn't dead. Part of her lit up, clutching her phone tightly. Maybe Gale hadn't known the whole story, maybe Charlotte had to trick Gale into thinking otherwise.
..Maybe Charlotte was wrapped up in something bigger.
......Maybe Charlotte had purposely left these things behind for Saya.
............Maybe, this feeling of unease would leave her if she replied back.
The wording was strangely formal, as she read the three curt messages. The content was strange but maybe it was a riddle, code words-- If it was, Saya didn't know how to reply very code-like, so she replied honestly. Seconds dragged by as she struggled to type, the falling tears making the keypad slippery.

Charlotte!
I thought you died! I'd do anything to hear the truth.
I'm sorry, I wasn't strong enough to protect you.
How could I be happy when I heard you died?
I-I know you can't tell me the truth now. I'm so glad you're alive-- I'm not sure what's happened but I wanted to tell you how much you mean to me.
Charlotte, can we meet u

The last words were cut off because Saya accidentally pressed the send button too quickly.
