Raoh stares at Fujio, not believing what he just said. The whole situation is funny to Darling. There is a bunch of kids giggling and playing around them while Raoh was probably thinking Fujio was here for a fight. Only to be asked to be friends.

"Huh?" Raoh questions out loud.

"You're amazing." Fujio continues as he grins. "You really are amazing! I finally understand what those Housen guys meant. Please! Let's be friends!" He presses his palms together, almost begging Raoh ands hold a hand out for a handshake.

Raoh is shocked. "Umm...uhhh..."

Fujio grabs one of Raoh's hands, grasping it with both of his and shakes it. "Okay?"

Darling glances back at Tsukasa and Jamuo with a small smirk on her face. After a few moments of Fujio shaking Raoh's hand with a grin, Darling moves her best friend's hands off the other's.

"Okay, stop shaking his hand. I think he's got the point."

"What's with you?" Raoh stares at him weirdly.

"To be honest...I'm still trying to figure that out. And he is one of my best friends." Darling replies, eyeing Fujio. "But yeah, let's be friends." She smiles at Raoh.

Motoaki comes by the next day to make them yakisoba right then and there on a grill he brought. Though, when he first got there he had handed Darling, who is wearing a similar outfit from yesterday with a black cropped tank top instead, a container that had hot, already made yakisoba. She took it with the idea that there is definitely something wrong with the one he is making in front of them so she'll stay away with it and enjoy the one he bought for her. She takes her normal seat right next to Fujio on the couch as he talks about what happened when they went to go meet with Raoh, breaking her chopsticks and starts to eat after thanking Motoaki for the food.

"Thank you for the food." She smiles.

"Huh?! What did you say?" Yasushi questions Darling and Fujio who are both digging into their noodles.

"You two and Suzuran's Raoh are friends, now?" Nakagoshi says with food in his mouth.

"Bullshit! There's no way!" Yasushi denies.

"It's true!" Fujio says, his mouth full.

Kiyoshi, Yasushi, Nakagoshi and Nakaoka all laugh before turning to look at Tsukasa for clarification, as Darling is busy eating.

"It really is true." Tsukasa smirks a bit.

"No way!" Nakaoka bursts out, "With Raoh? Guy's a total monster!"

"You're wrong!" Jamuo stands up, defending Raoh. "He's a man among men! A true champion of justice!"

"Mmm!" Kiyoshi hums, holding his plate up and gets up from his seat. "And this food is a masterpiece! I want some more, Motoaki!"

Yasushi gets up from his spot as well, "Me too, Motoaki!"

"Sure! Eat up! Get another plate!" Motoaki reaches over to grab more plates.

"Is it really okay if we eat all your food?" Fujio questions with a smile.

"It's fine! There's a guy named Zen at work and a guy he knows messed up an order..." Motoaki explains, continuing to cook. "Haha! A ton of food showed up! He asked if I knew anyone who would eat it so I figured I'd give it to you Oya High numbskulls."
