Some people have imaginary friends...she has an imaginary older sister...and all that implies (i.e big sis' protection instinct etc.)

What an errie and intriguing story to end on..
For me, Ch. 15 - The Man Who Sells Photos was the most memorable of the second volume alongside Ch. 19 & 20.
Overall, this was a great collection of stories that didn't rely on monstrous shock page-turns or gore to sell you on the horror. They all shared a sense of realism like they could happen to you or I on any given day. Thanks a lot for the complete TL.

What I enjoy is the ambiguity of the ending: "She had a little girl with her. So she was born safely. Yeah. I'm glad she's doing well."

Yes, it could mean the big sister—in fact, that is the most obvious interpretation. But what if it refers to the bully? The bully that also had a little girl? It would be a moment of ambiguity again, like maybe she did do it after all, and this whole tulpa thing is a lie.

It's the tulpa's kid. The tulpa sister literally says "I'm gonna have a baby, a girl, if it's born safe I'll find you," but they never meet again. Then the friend says "Yeah, the weird lady looked like you and had a baby girl," the bullied girl made the connection, with "Oh, so my older sister had the kid and she's doing well."

Dissociative identity disorder due to being a victim of bullying? Tsukumogami? Urban legend-type oddities are stretching it but... I wonder what it really was.
Anyway, it has been an enjoyable read.
