(tw: mention of unhealthy family relationship and drinking)

kyoko...?

she's asking me to find her kyoko's number.

what?

i mean... i do know they have met before, after kyoko told all about it, but...

how should i feel about giving her number?

just like that?

without kyoko's permission?

would kyoko be mad if i told her her number just like that?

should i ask kyoko first?

"uh... makoto? you there?"

oh... i kept her waiting on the phone.

"a-ah, yes! i will make sure to ask my dad if he can find you kyoko kirigiri's number!"

"thank you, really! and goodbye!"

"bye, sayaka"

she hung up and it was silence again.

so many questions in my head... so many.

why would sayaka want kyoko's number? don't they already talk when kyoko's at work?

and since when did sayaka have time to call people? she was always so busy ever since she started singing in the band. some days she would even be absent for practice during our last year of middle school.

anyway i... i'll tell kyoko this when she wakes up... i guess. i really don't think it would be okay to hide this from my best friend.

for now, i'll just enjoy this apple juice, i guess. it's really tasty.

but wait... there's a writing on the box-

oh no. it says "komaru bought this! only for komaru :D"

she's probably going to kill me when she wakes up... hehe.

"makoto?"

i turned around towards the door, and there she was. kyoko, with her bed hair and sleepy eyes.

"ah, k-kyoko! g-good morniiiiiiiing!"

i said with a huge smile on my face and hugged her.

god. she's totally going to understand i'm hiding som-

"something wrong? and- does that juice say it's for komaru on it?"

she said, and took a close look on the juice.

"uh, yes, she's going to kill me."

i said and awkwardly laughed, and she smiled.

"you didn't answer the first question, naegi"

"i- uh... w-what was the first question i don't know anything about a first question!"

i know the first question damn well, though.

"you're a terrible liar. and, the first question was if something was wrong or not. i'm asking it, even though i've already figured out the answer."

she said and gave me a smirk.

"uh, nothing's wrong! what could ever be wrong?"

"naegi, i give you 10 seconds to tell me what's wrong, or.."

ah... oh. my. god.

"o-or?"

i asked, while scared.
