Akano: Mikomi are you concentrating?
Mikomi: Huh?
Akano: Is there something bothering you?
Mikomi: No. It’s just that…
Inochi: You are stressing her out.
Akano: That is not true and you know it. Study is the last thing she is thinking at the moment. Is it Akira?
Mikomi: No. Me and Akira are fine. Don’t worry. I am fine.
Akano: You are not able to concentrate so you are not fine. Come on spill it.
Mikomi: I don’t know… Satsuki-sempai looks weird nowadays. Like he is sad about something or something is bothering him.
Inochi hits Mikomi on her head with his hand.
Mikomi: Ouch. What’s that for?
Inochi: For being self centered.
Mikomi: Huh?
Inochi: You know very well that he belongs to Suzu now and you did say that you already gave up on him. So what’s the reason for thinking about him? You are being unfair to both Suzu and Akira.
Mikomi: You’re right… I shouldn’t be this way but I can’t help it. I still have feelings for Satsuki-sempai. I see him everyday and the feelings just can’t go away.
Inochi: So you want to be a back-stabber?
Mikomi: No!
Inochi: If not then what’s your plan?
Mikomi: I don’t have any. It’s just that every time I see him feeling sad I feel sad too.
Inochi: Then stay away from him and you won’t be able to see him sad.
Mikomi: But…
Akano: It won’t be easy, Inochi. He hangs around the gang almost everyday.
Inochi: That’s true but when you want to avoid a person you will do everything in your power to make it happen. It’s like how we were, remember?
Akano: That’s you… Well I guess it’s true. When you want to avoid a person you will do anything to make it happen. And you avoided me for more than a year.
Inochi: So there. Avoid him at all cost and maybe occupy your time with Akira. That may solve the problem. It’s better than avoiding him without a reason.
Mikomi: I guess I have no choice.
Inochi: That’s right. About Satsuki, you can indirectly ask Suzu about it.
Akano: Yeah like “I saw Satsuki-sempai just now and his face isn’t too good. Is he missing you too much?” Indirect with a little teasing. It will make it look as if you are just asking about Suzu.
Inochi: Brilliant Akano.
Mikomi: Ok.
