Three days after the fight,

Kotaro is still at home, resting.

"Kotaro nii-chan! How are you doing?" Raiha asks.

"My face still hurts, Raiha-chan."

"Do you need anything?"

"Nothing, really."

"Nii-chaaaan! Get well soon!" Tsukkun goes to Kotaro's bed and hugs him.

"Haha, hey Tsukkun."

"I wonder how Miku's doing." Kotaro thought to himself. How would she feel after showing his violent side?

Later that day,

"I'm home." Futarou walks in with some familiar faces.

"Futarou nii-chan!" Raiha and Tsukkun greet him.

"Nii-chan, who are these people?" Tsukkun points at the other people with Futarou.

"These are our friends. Everyone, meet my younger stepbrother, Tsukkun."

"Hi, Tsukkun! Remember me? I'm big bro Hikaru!" Hikaru carries Tsukkun.

"No!" Tsukkun says, cheerfully.

"Hi, Tsukkun! You must be Akashiro-kun's younger brother." Itsuki leans down.

"Tsukkuuuun! You're so cute!" Yotsuba hugs him.

"Let's go to Kotaro's room." Futarou leads them to Kotaro.

"Hey, Kotaro. You have some visitors." Futarou knocks.

"Come in."

Everyone then walks inside Kotaro's room.

"Hey, Akashiro-san! How are you doing?" Yotsuba asks.

"Kotaro, I'm really sorry." Miku apologizes again.

"You don't need to apologize, Miku. I did it to protect you!" Kotaro smiles at her.

"Hey, Kotaro-san. Get well soon!" Nino says.

"Damn, Kotaro. I didn't know you were a good fighter." Hikaru laughs.

"Kotaro, I have good news. The guys who attacked you, Sarashina and Kogane, was it? They both got expelled." Futarou explains.

"I didn't mean for that to happen, I'm sorry." Kotaro replies.

"No need to worry! The camera caught it, so not much explanation was needed." Ichika says.

"What time is it?" Kotaro asks.

"6 pm." Futarou reads the clock.

"Ichika, could you grab those meds over there?" Kotaro points at a white bottle on his table.

Ichika gives the bottle to Kotaro and he takes one pill.

"What is that?" Nino asks.

"Painkillers. My face still kinda hurts, so I take one every 6 hours."

"Dinner's ready!" Raiha shouts.

"Let's go, everyone." Futarou, Hikaru, and the rest of the quints go to the dining room, except for Miku.

"Miku, what are you still doing here?" Kotaro asks.

"I wanted to talk about... something."

"What is it?"

"Why did you call me your girlfriend in front of Amagami-san?"

"I'm really sorry! I said it in the heat of the moment!" Kotaro apologizes.

"I mean... I don't mind."
