*Title appears*

*Screen points to Shoya*

Shoya: Hmmm...What should I get rid of..?

*Shoya knocks down photo*

*Shoya picks up photo and looks at it*

Shoya: I miss you, Daniel. I hope I see you again.

*Flashbacks to elementary school*

Shoya: Sup, Daniel?

Daniel: Hey, Shoya. How ya doing?

Young Shoya: Pretty great.

*Daniel and Shoya fist bump.*

*Daniel Smirks*

*Daniel hears noises next door while working on invention*

*Daniel sees Shoya, Kazuki and Keisuke bully Shoko*

Daniel (thinking): What the hell are they doing?!

*Daniel exits school and walks up to his car only to find two broken hearing aids on the ground*

*Daniel picks them up*

Daniel: These must be Shoko's hearing aids. I think I can fix these.

*Daniel walks back to his workshop and starts fixing the hearing aids*

*Mr Takeuchi walks in*

Mr Takeuchi: Mr Suzuki?

Daniel: Yeah?

Mr Takeuchi: I see your inventing something, what is it if I may ask?

Daniel: Oh, I am actually fixing Shokos hearing aids. They're not that broken, so I'm repairing them.

Mr Takeuchi: Wow, you can really fix anything, can you?

Daniel: I guess I can.

Mr Takeuchi: Well, I have a class to attend now, see you later.

Daniel: Okay, good luck.

*Daniel waves to Mr Takeuchi and Mr Takeuchi leaves*

*Daniel sighs*

Daniel (thinking): Why are you bullying her, Shoya? What happened to you?

*The Next Day*

Principal: Uhh, Daniel?

Daniel: Yes?

Principal: Did you by any chance witness Shoko being bullied?

Daniel: No, I haven't.

Daniel: Why? Did something happen?

Principal: *sigh* Well, Shoko is absent today and the school received a phone call from Shoko's mom. For more then 3 weeks, eight of Shoko's hearing aids have been broken or went missing. Shoko's mother believes Shoko is being bullied, so if anyone witnessed Shoko being harassed or abused at school, I need you to come forward and tell us.

Daniel: I see.

Daniel: I think a little bit of times, Shoya bullies her. But not very badly, only teases her, that's all.

Principal: Teases?

Daniel: Yeah, he was just messing around and all. He didn't really mean it or did anything that bad.

Principal: Well, thank you for telling us. I have to head to Shoko's class now and talk to the other students about this.

Daniel: Oh, wait. Before you go, I fixed a pair of Shoko's hearing aids that Shoya broke one day. Try to give this to Shoko's mother or anyone that can give this to her.
