'If only it could have been possible to go through life without any missteps. If only this world... could have been a kinder one. Without anxiety or fear, where I didn't hurt anyone, and no one hurt me. If only things had been different. If I'd taken a better path-- a shorter path-- to the kinder world I've been wishing fear. Without any wrong turns or regrets.'

"Yun-Yun, I heard Honda's in the hospital. That true?" Manabe questioned, and [Y/n] flinched a little while putting binders away.
"Hm? How did you know?" Yuki asked.
"Somebody in your class told me about it. Plus, I also heard orange hair dude's been absent for days. He doing okay?"
"I don't know. Or care." Yuki said, "You should be asking if [Y/n] doing okay."
"I'm fine... I don't really want to talk about it." [Y/n] muttered.
"See, our tough tiger is holding up fine." Manabe said.
"Yun-Yun. So, Kimi's been wondering forever about that Honda girl. I know she's [Y/n]-chan's sister, but what exactly is she to you?" Kimi asked.
"She's his mom." Manabe said, and Yuki blushed.
"Okay, no one thinks your funny." Kimi said. They went back and forth on the matter until Uotani and Hanajima showed up.
"President, look like you have some visitors." Nao said. [Y/n] looked at them.
They pulled [Y/n] outside. "Tohru gave us the one-minute summary of how she ended up in the hospital." Uotani said.
"How are you feeling? Truly feeling." Hanajima said.
"I... don't know really. It's like a nightmare that I can't wake up from." [Y/n] muttered looked down at her feet, "I'm not angry with Akito... It wasn't her fault. But Tohru just slipped out of my grasp like nothing. Seeing her on the ground like that, made me think, 'What would I do if she dies?' 'How could I function in this lonely world?' 'Tohru would want me to keep going, but how could I?'"
All Uotani and Hanajima could think to do was give [Y/n] a hug. [Y/n] hugged onto them with trembling hands. 'I'm so pathetic. I said I have to move on, but this whole time I've been standing still, hoping the curse would somehow break. I never moved forward. Never confessed to Yuki, never got any closer than I already am.' [Y/n] thought.

Shigure sighed. "A convenience store breakfast? How low we've sunk." He said.
"What else can we do? We're out of rice, bread, pretty much everything." Yuki said.
"Having Tohru has spoiled us. Not even [Y/n] is up to cooking. We're even worse at taking care of ourselves now than we were before they came. Good thing Tohru's being released today, or we might starve. Ooh, what should we ask them to cook this evening?" Shigure questioned.
"Nothing because we're not total jerks." Yuki said.
"And still no Kyo. I wonder where he ran off to." Shigure said.
Once they got home, they were greeted by Haru. "Welcome home." He said.
"Um, wait, what?" Yuki asked.
"Whoopsie. Did I forget to lock up after us again?" Shigure questioned.
"Seriously?" Yuki said.
Haru looked at Shigure with a deadpanned look. "Your forgetfulness made it an easy conquest. It was wide open, so I slid right in." He said, and Yuki chopped him in the head.
