Each ending is determined by what responses you choose when recalling what you replied to Aya's letter with.
The endings are:
The Cursed Letter
The Princess of Himegamori Forest
A Government Plot (unlocks after first playthrough)
Crossing Paths
The Bond of Marriage (unlocks after first playthrough)
Since The Bond of Marriage is considered the true ending, it's recommended you do this one last. It doesn't really matter what order you do the endings in, though.
Also note that the replies for Chapter 3's letter won't pop until a few minutes into the chapter.
