Normally, Sana would bring a smile on her face when talking to people around her. She's the type of girl that sends energy and influenced everyone to be as equally hyper as her.

Today, Sana is acting different and she doesn't know why. But one thing she was sure of is that she was doing it for her friend, Momo.

The girl with a pale, frowned face was sitting on the stairs after she ran away. There's some regret and loneliness crept up to her but she can't do anything with it anymore.

"Sana? What are you doing here?!" Glancing over toward the source of the voice, which was fairly a huge coincidence because Sana just thought of her.

"Momo?" Her eyes grew.

"What's with the long face? Did someone do this to you? I'm going to kill them!" A strong, full fist then was in Sana's eyes and she panics.

"N-no! That's not it!" She grabs Momo's shirt.

"Hm? What's up? You can tell me," This made Momo sat beside Sana on the stairs.

"Well..." She was struggle to form her feelings into words. "Have you properly delivered your feelings to Y/N?"

"Of course I have," Momo simply answered but if it were Mina, she would probably notice the forlorn face the moment Sana asked. "Oh, I was on my way to search Y/N!"

"I happened to meet Y/N but I ran away--"

"Huh?! Why? You two could've hang out or something!" Said Momo, who promptly grabbed Sana's shoulders and shook her.

"Why would I? You like Y/N, right? I can't do-"

"Of course you can! Just because I like Y/N, doesn't mean... --Wait a minute... Sana, don't tell me..." A moment of realization hit her and Sana looked away.

"What?" Sana's voice heightened in pitch and quivers.

"Are you distancing Y/N for my sake...?" Momo frowns.

For a brief, Sana looked over her laps and she nods. "I just thought maybe.. it's my way of supporting you. I can tell your love for Y/N is pure. You admired me by thinking, I wish I am as strong as you are, Momoring..."

That act froze Momo and her heart felt cold, so cold as if the earlier warmth had never been. This was the first time Momo saw Sana didn't feel like herself, and because of that...

"I'm happy that you feel that way," Is all Momo could say.

"But... I don't want you to do that, Sana," She continued.

The girl's eyes widened and glance to Momo. "Huh?"

"I want to fight this fair and square. You don't have to do all this for me,"

"B-but you said you want Y/N all by yourself-"

"Yeah, that's right. I did say that but that's my real feelings. Sana, what are your real feelings? I want you to be honest,"

"..Heh?" Speechless, Sana was fazed by Momo's phrase. "My feelings... I wonder..."

"What do you think of Y/N?"

"Momoring, I can't--"

"It's fine! There's no way our friendship would be ruined just because over one stupid person! Haha! Right?" Momo laughs and this made Sana's heart cool off, as well as her head.

Momo has changed... I need to change too...

"I know, Sana." Momo smiles. "You're probably confused, frustrated, and wondering what's gotten into you. Trust me, I've been through the same so I see myself in you. As your friend, I'll help you get out of it,"
