The three huffed as they stood in front of the [Surname]'s front door. Makoto rang the door bell three times and waited. Next was Nagisa who worriedly rang it five times and waited but to no avail.
"Couldn't they left already...?" sniffling came from the blonde swimmer as he said it. "It can't be the relay just finished a few minutes ago!" replied the olive haired boy. "She could've left while we were busy taking that picture or while we were medal-ed." the two hung their heads low. Haru was right that could be possible.

Haru– shocked and guilty wanted to yell how sorry he was, but now knowing that [Name] had no care anymore it will just be called a trashy sorry. With a heavy heart, he came back to the rooftop now everyone was looking at him.
He just uttered one word "[Name]" that perked Nagisa and Makoto's interest. "W-what about her Haru-chan?" "She doesn't care anymore..." the confused blonde stood up "She's here!? Where is she!?" "Nagisa, calm down!"
After calming down the blonde, Makoto explained how [Name] was the new student and such. It was then Haru's turn to explain by how he meant earlier.
"[Name] wanted us to act like what we did back then and that she doesn't care anymore." "Then does she know that Rin isn't here?" Haru shook his head no. Kou hearing her brothers' name asked "Um what did Rin exactly did to [Name]-san?" cue the worried glances Makoto and Nagisa gave to Haru.
Haru you could say was [Name]'s first friend before she met Makoto and Nagisa. So Haru had more connection to the young maiden than the other four could imagine. Haru looked at the rooftop floor and despite being a few words man he began to explain.

After the explanation Rei and Kou's reaction was shock but mostly Kou's was fury. Fury at her brother, how could he had a nerve to do that!? Yes they were kids but they were at sixth grade! And [Name] had a fragile heart as Haru explained so.
When Kou wanted to babble furiously the school bell rang for the end of lunch and she upsetly groaned. "Don't worry Kou don't think much of it. We'll fix this to ourselves" "No! My brother is a screw up so I'll help you and [Name]-san seems nice so I'll try to befriend her and Rei will help me with that!" Rei in return gave her a look "Why dragging me into this!?" and Kou returned it with a smile "She doesn't know us so it's fine and you're in this club!" "Alright, I'm only doing this because the situation isn't beautiful!" Makoto smiled as Nagisa hugged the two "Thank you, you two!!" "It's no problem Nagisa-kun!"
Makoto remembering that the bell rang a few minutes ago panicked "We should go to class or we'll be late, let's go!" after packing up their lunch they hurriedly ran down the stairs and to their classes.

After School—
Since Kou and Rei wanted to help, they all decided to come to Haru's house to plan. But of course they firstly talked to Ama-sensei about the cancellation of practice to which she agreed on and once again gave a weird quote.
Walking out of the school gates, a sudden gust of wind welcomed them and they blocked their eyes (with Kou closing her eyes and putting her skirt down) so the leaves that fell wouldn't get caught to their hues.
As it settled down they looked at each other confused at what happened "Is there a storm brewing up?" asked Kou to which Rei answered "No, the news said we won't get any rain until next week or so." disregarding the sudden wind, they began to walk to Haru's house.
As they walked, Haru couldn't help but look at the sea again. There he saw a silhouette, standing at the shore, it was from school base from the uniform she's still wearing. As Haru squinted his eyes he stopped dead in his tracks making the group alert.
"What is it Haru?" "[Name]" they all looked where Haru was staring at and also squinted their eyes it was indeed [Name], base from her hair and form.
With the orange and purple painted the sky, it was all beautiful to which Rei uttered under his breath. Of course a beautiful scenery as this wouldn't get pass to Kou as she fished out her phone and took a few shots.
Haru wanting to talk to her again took a few steps before he was held back by Makoto "It's not best for now, she must be recollecting her thoughts..." Haru just nodded and walked once again. The others looked at [Name] once more before following Haru.
As they arrived they took off their shoes and went to Haru's living room with Haru going straight to the kitched to mostly cook mackerel.
As the others began to plan out, Haru couldn't help but once again zone out. Recalling one of his memories with [Name].
"Haru-kun can you push me?"
"Sure"
The two was at the park, since [Name] wished to. Standing behind her Haru gently pushed her making the swing sway making [Name] giggle.
"Higher!" and he complied.

They were just sitting at a bench at the park and [Name] decided to break the silence. "Haru-kun perhaps I can meet one of your friends?" Haru looked at her.
"Why?"
"Well I've been wondering if you have other friends beside me!"
"I do"
"Then can I?"
"I guess" the (h/c) haired cheered, unknown to her Haru had a small smile.
Haru flipped the mackerel with a smile. But it turned into a frown as he remembered her words. "I don't care anymore" oh how it hurted him but he guessed he deserved it after [Name] felt the huge pain that time.
After he placed the mackerel unto a plate and went back to the living room and the others was still planning what to do first. "Just talk to her, you guys are making it a big deal" they sweat dropped at Haru's deadpan statement. "Do that and the three of us won't disturb you guys tomorrow." Makoto said and they nodded.
They then played some Haru's video games after. As few hours passed it was 8:27 in the evening and Nagisa, Kou and Rei bid their farewell.
Haru cleaned the living room with Makoto's help. "Do you think [Name]-chan will forgive us after persuading her for this?" "I don't know and I don't want to talk about it".
After cleaning Makoto stood at the front door. "Stay strong Haru.." "You too" after that he left.
Haru then took a bath and changed into comfortable clothes. He slowly slept with what could've happen when [Name] wasn't neglected.
