It's been a week since Makoto ignored you, you were still sad about the situation. But you brushed it off and continued with your day. You went to the park to meet Hajime. Once you walked out, you thought of Naegi.
Why did I reject him like that? I know I don't even like Naegi, but did I hurt him so hard that he's ignoring me? Maybe I am stupid.

You went to the park and talked to Hajime. When you two were talking, "Hey, Y/N... can I take you out somewhere?" He asked you. You felt a little blush. "Oh, of course!" You agreed. He pushed himself up and lifted you. He rushed both of you.
He took you to this trail inside of a forest.
"Uh Hajime?.. Where are you taking me?" You questioned.
"You'll see" He left you with a smirk.
You hated surprised.

After some time, he took you to this beautiful scenery. Words cannot describe you.
"Woah.. Hajime.." You looked at him with a big smile.
"Heh, I knew you'd like it." He giggled.
You felt flattered. You smiled at him.
The scenery was perfect for a love story.
There was a rock shaped as a bench, surrounded by trees. And flowers was in front you two. It was beautiful.
Hajime put his arm around you and made your head rest on his shoulder.
You rolled your eyes at him and blushed.
You closed your eyes and rested for awhile.
Hajime was your best comforter. And you were glad, especially after Makoto started ignoring you.
"Thank you, Hajime." You smiled at him.
Hajime looked at you, "You deserve it after all." He passionately said. You blushed and kissed him on the cheek. You felt him flinch. You then giggled.
"H-Hey, don't laugh!... or I'll have to do something..." He said. You laughed, "What're you gonna do?"
"This.." then he started tickling you.
"S-Stop HAJIME!!" You yelled. You were laughing like a teapot. He was still tickling you. "H-Hajime.. STOPP" You laughed harder than ever. It was all fun, until you farted. He stopped to laugh.

"H-Hey! It's not funny!" You yelled.
He was still laughing, "Hehe, I'm sorry!" Wiping a tear from his eye. You were embarrassed, but you enjoyed your time with him.
"We should be heading back." Hajime told you.
"Agreed." You agreed.

You guys walked back to the park to part your ways.
"Bye Hajime!" You waved and walked off.
You went on the street and headed home.
You looked at your phone.

You put your phone back in your pocket.
You began to think to yourself.

Will he ever speak to me? I mean, the reason why he started ignoring me was because of me. All of this, because of me..

Once you got to your house. You began to cook yourself something. You were cooking rice.
You began to remember the times you and Makoto spent in this house. One of those times when Makoto came to sleepover, you both were just playing games. What was that game? Oh, it was only a game about zombies. It was one of your favourite games as a kid.
You smiled. If you'd only didn't go to his house that day, maybe Makoto will still talk to you.
You were cooking the rice, like how Makoto liked it.

Once you were done cooking the rice, you tasted it. You were shook.. of how good this rice was. You can totally see why Makoto likes it. It was good in every way. After you were done eating, you decided to call it a night and go to bed.

The next day, you heard a knock on your door.
It was Hajime.
"Hajime! Come in!" You greeted.
He walked in. "Y/N, I have to talk to you about something."
"Oh? What is it?" You asked.
"Look." He showed you a photo. It was a photo of a school.
"Huh, it's just a school." You said.
"O-Oh, wrong photo!" He felt embarrassed.
He showed you another photo. It was a photo of a code, or something.
"Keep this, it'll be useful someday, I think." Hajime said.
"Ok?" You replied. Hajime then walked out of the door.
"Wait Hajime, it'll be nice if you stay a little!" You yelled.
"Hm? If you insist." He said back.
He walked back in.
"You want something to drink?" You asked him.
"No thanks." He replied.
"The reason why I asked you to stay, is because I'm lonely." You looked at him.
"Oh, is that so?" He asked.
"I just told you." You looked at him seriously.
Hajime look frightened, it's like he never seen an intimidating person before.
"A-Ah! I'm so sorry!" You apologized.
"Don't worry, it's fine!" He said.
"Are you hungry?" You asked him.
"Coming to think of it, yes I am!" He said.
"Well, what foods do you like?" You questioned.
"Anything is fine." He replied.
"Ok!" You said. You ran to the kitchen and started cooking the only thing you're good at, rice. You wanted to see if he'd like his rice like Makoto's.

Once you were done, you served him. And when he tried it, "It's good, buts it's really not my taste. You know what I'm saying?" He said.
You nodded.
He finished his bowl of rice, "I'm gonna head off now, bye Y/N!" He said.
"Ok, bye." You replied.   As soon as he left, you've gotten a phone call, "Y/N!! It's Naegi, he's in the hospital!" His mom yelled through the phone. You're eyes widened with shock. Tears were rolling down your eyes. You hung up the phone and broke down in tears.

What stupid thing did he do?!
