The next few days reki and langa just hang out at rekis place, sense reki doesn't have enough energy to get up and go skate a lot. "...sorry." "why?" "I know you would rather be skating right now. I'm such a fuckup that your stuck here with me-" "reki. I'm here right now because I want to be." "...thanks.." "I wish you could see how much your worth." "Why do you care about me so much. I left you for four years and then again, the second time for no reason. And im such a jerk all the ti-" "Thats not true. Your not a jerk you just get to defensive sometimes. And I'm not upset about you 'leaving' either time. I'm long over it reki." "Th-thank you langa..." "anytime" "do the others hate me?" "No. They dont." "...thats..a bit re assuring" reki sighs heavily, and lays his head on langas shoulder. "We can skate tomorrow. I'll force myself to get up and shit." "Reki don't push yourself to much-" "ill be fine, plus i wanna skate!" "Are you sure?" Reki nods a bit before laying his head back onto langas shoulder.

The next day they do meet up and skate. And afterwards langa goes to meet up with the others, but he brings reki with him. And sure everyone was iffy with reki at first, but they slowly all started to get along.

Reki and miya started to get along again, and Joe and cherry actually trust him again. Everything was great, and that's how it stayed. How it would stay. How it should stay. Everyone was just like a big family. It was genuinely so nice for all of them.

Despite all that, reki still despised himself. That never changed. He felt so un desveriving of everyone's love, especially langas. Not being able to understand why anyone would even so much as slightly care for someone like him. In his mind he was the worst person in the world. One that no one would ever love.

"Langa. Can you come here for a sec? I need to talk to you.." "yeah, what's up." "Why do you guys care about me." "Because your amazing reki-" "...yeah..look im gonna go home a bit early k? Sorry." "I-its fine...are you okay?" "Yeah. Ill be..." reki sighs heavily. "...just fine."
