Katsuki was at her wit's end with how stressed out she was. One day, Rekka came back from the bathroom with a beet-red face and a look of pure rage. Her hand was also red and cut. It later bruised badly. She flopped into her chair, crossed her arms, and looked out the window without saying anything.
A few minutes later, Haruna walked in. Katsuki noticed she was wearing makeup. But Katsuki didn't pay it too much attention because Haruna had asked a while ago for makeup recommendations.
"Hi, Haru-chan!" Katsuki waved as Haruna walked to her. But Haruna ignored her and sat in her seat. "Haruna?" Katsuki went to grab Haruna's arm. But Haruna shoved her hand away.
Katsuki reluctantly let her be. And for the rest of the day, Haruna didn't say a word. What's even weirder is that Rekka didn't say anything to anyone. Even if she wasn't talking to Haruna, Rekka would talk Katsuki's ear off every day about damn near anything.
When lunch came, Haruna basically ran out of the room before anyone could say anything to her.
"What happened?" Katsuki asked Rekka.
"Nothing..." Rekka said, coldly.
"Something happened," Katsuki said, forcefully.
"We can't do anything for someone that won't let us help." Rekka rested her head on her hand and looked out the window. "We can't help a brick wall..."
Katsuki was about to tell Rekka off for talking down to her friend, but Kazuyuki stopped her by grabbing her shoulder, lightly.
"All we can do is be here for Haruna..." Katsuki looked at Kazuyuki, who was examining his sister. "Whenever she decides to make a change... We need to be ready to support her. That's all we can do at this point."
Katsuki assumed that Kazuyuki knew something big happened between Haruna and Rekka. And he knew that Rekka had enough of how Haruna was acting for now.
A couple of days passed. It is Friday now. A while back, the group planned a day out after school since Rekka and Haruna didn't have practice. Obviously, those plans changed slightly. But Katsuki was still going to attempt to invite Haruna out. When Katsuki came back into the classroom after school, all she saw was a letter on her desk.
It was from Haruna. Katsuki recognized Haruna's neat handwriting.
