After Rui closed the door to his room he couldn't keep pretending anymore. He finally broke down getting hurt by some of the inventions on the ground

He was all alone once again they all probably  left him. There are a lot of better people out there that won't hurt their actors

After what felt like ages the tall boy got up and started working on an invention to get his mind off things. It didn't work

He decided to visit the Sekai all alone since it was too late to ask Nene to come along.

He grabbed his phone from the side of his desk and presses play.
There he was greeted by the usual cheerful people.

M:Hello the Rui-kun!! Oh? What's wrong? You seem off...

R:Ah.It seems you noticed. Don't worry about it.

M:Well if you say so it's probably fine.

R:Do you know where KAITO is by any chance?

M: Yea! He is backstage you can go talk to him! Sadly I cannot join you. I'll come later,see you!

Rui waved goodbye to Miku and went backstage. And as he was told,KAITO was there.

K:Hello there Rui. What brings you here at such a late hour?

R:Hello there KAITO. I just came by to see how the shows are going

K: You look troubled is there anything bothering you?

Rui didn't have words to answer the question. KAITO probably figured out that he wasn't his usual self.

K: I assume there is. Would you like the talk about it?

KAITO says as he sits on one of the two couches

Rui nods quietly and sits on the second couch across KAITO.

KAITO let Rui take his time as if he has done this before

R: I hurt Tsukasa-kun with one of my inventions.

K:I'm guessing it was serious based on your look. How is he now?

KAITO asks with a concerned look on his face.

R: No it's not that. Tsukasa-kun is fine. I'm scared KAITO.

KAITO tilts his head in confusion

K: What are you scared of Rui?

R: Scared that he will leave me. The group will leave me like everyone else did.

K: I see...

There was silence between then until KAITO made up his mind.

K:How about you come back tomorrow? You need to get rest. You haven't been getting any lately have you?

Rui seemed lost but nodded and went back to his room. He wanted to listen to KAITO. He was like a father to him but his mind didn't leave him alone. Eventually he fell asleep.
