Aomori walked with Mayumi, which they were both talking to each other until the one said “Hey, Aomori?” And Mayumi said “I heard from a friend to a friend a certain someone loves you, you know what I’m saying?” And Atsume said “DUDE!” And Mayumi said “Tch, what..?” And Aomori sighed “..Well, yeah.” Atsume “Will you ever tell her?” and Aomori said “What do you mean, exactly?” And Atsume answered “That you never feel the same!” And Aomori said “I thought she already knew by now, though.” and Mayumi asked “Why not say it, Aomori?” and Aomori shot back “Hearing it out hurts more than even knowing and contemplating it, Mayumi.” And Mayumi said “…You should’ve told her by now, She already was going to be hurt by now, anyway.” And Aomori said “I kind of care about her, even if she should have known by now anyway.” And Atsume said “Why do you still talk to her?”

Meanwhile, Amane was with Linh. And she asked to Linh. “Was it all so easy to decode?” And Linh sternly answered “Amane. when we go out, you always seem to find a reason to even talk about her.” And Amane rawly replied “I don’t even think straight doing this anymore.” and Linh said “You yearn for her, before you even talk to anyone at all.” And the silence was overwhelming, before she replied “Yeah…” and Linh asked “Have you ever asked her?” And Amane was silent for a while, before answering “No, I don’t want to lose our friendship.”
