"AMANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~"
Heard Hanako, while he was playing cards with the mokkes.

Hanako: Huh? Tsukasa?

Tsukasa: AMANEEEE! I MISSED YOUU! DID YOU MISS ME?! DID YOU?! DID YOU?! YOU DID, RIGHT?!

Hanako: Uhh.. Yeah, sure..

Tsukasa: Haha! Knew it!

Hanako: Umm.. So, what are you here for?

Tsukasa: Can't I visit my brother?

Hanako: Yeah, but you usually never come just to visit..

Tsukasa: Hm.. That's true, you got me there! Well, I came because..

Hanako: ??

Tsukasa: You.. Amane.. Broke your promise.

Hanako: I..

Hanako had totally forgotten about his deal with Tsukasa. He has been spending so much time with you lately, that he forgot his only purpose to meet you..
He felt so much guilt.. You trusted him so much yet he didn't even tell you the truth behind your unusual meeting.

Tsukasa: What's keeping you from doing it? I already solved the only obstacle, which was killing them at school. Now why haven't you done it yet?

Hanako: I'm.. I'm not sure..

Tsukasa: Perhaps, you've developed some kind of liking for that person?

Hanako: ...

Tsukasa: I told you to be more selfless, but now you just want everything, huh? You can't have both, Amane. You chose Yashiro, now you'll have to say goodbye to your new "friend".

'He's right.. I'm asking for too much and I don't even deserve anything.. (Y/N) is too much.. They are so nice and friendly with me.. How could I not wish to spend my time with them? Who wouldn't.. Thought, he's wrong about me choosing. I didn't choose Yashiro, I hadn't met (Y/N) yet.. That doesn't count as choosing, right? But if I had to choose.. Which one would I..? ' Thought Hanako.

Hanako: What if.. What if I don't want to say goodbye..?

Tsukasa: *Sighs* Amane, are you dumb?

Hanako: ..?

Tsukasa: You really think that someone like them will stay friends with you?

Hanako: I.. I don't know..

Tsukasa: Look what happened with Yashiro, she broke your heart, your trust. What makes you think it'll be different with that person?

Hanako tensed at Tsukasas words.

Hanako: It's true.. Tho, until now, I've seen what happened with Yashiro as something negative, but.. What if it was meant to happen? If I hadn't accepted your deal, I would've probably never met (Y/N)..

Tsukasa: What does that mean? Are you telling me, that you prefer (Y/N) over Yashiro now?

Hanako: I.. Umm..
' Do I..? I mean, I spent some great time with Yashiro, but (Y/N).. It's so different.. When I'm around them, I feel like I'm a normal person, that I'm alive again, that my sins have been forgiven.. If I had to choose between returning like before or suffer loosing Yashiro just to meet (Y/N) again, I wouldn't hesitate in choosing (Y/N). Because now, we are friends.. Right? '
