The next day, Akito was at the music store, looking for a CD of sort. Akito just found it and was paying for it. As he began to exit the store...

Mizuki: Oi! Otouto-kun!

Akito: Hm? 

Mizuki then runs to him.

Akito: Oh, Akiyama. Why are you here?

Mizuki: Can you go to weekend garage with me?

Akito: Why, e-exactly?

Mizuki: I need to talk to you. STAT!

Akito: Mizuki...

Mizuki: If you can't make your choice, then I'll have to drag you.

Mizuki then began to grab Akito's hand. She then drags him out of the store and to Vivid Street.

Akito: Mizuki! I can walk, okay!

Mizuki: Nope! Otherwise you'll be loose!

At weekend garage, Ken was busy and was on a call with somebody.

Airi POV: I just hope this works.

Then the bell dings as Mizuki and Akito come in.

Ken: Okay, I'll put you on hold.

Ken then puts down his phone.

Ken: Mizuki, Akito, welcome.

Akito: Just some coffee please. I just need a drink.

Ken: Coming right up.

As Ken was making his coffee...

Mizuki: Okay then, the reason why I dragged you here is because I want you to tell Airi and Ken the problem, on your own.

Airi: I want to hear the full story, Mizuki just retold it.

Akito: I...

Mizuki: Please!

Ken then finishes making the coffee.

Ken: Here's your coffee.

Akito then takes a sip and starts telling the story.

Akito: Well, after the news about Nagi's death, I felt quite guilty for not knowing. After the news we were told, me and A both had a fight, it went on for days. One day, we both had enough with each other, and I realized I hurt her big time. I started to distance myself because even if I am hurt by others, I'll hurt others even more. I soon then realize out of me and Vivid BAD Squad, I'm the only one who doesn't have a resolve.

Airi: Akito...

Akito: In general, I'm just running away from my problems. It's my fault after all.

???: That's not true!

Akito: Eh?

A was running to Akito as An opened the cafe door.

An: Stop blaming yourself!

Akito: An? So the person Ken-San was calling when we entered was you, wasn't it?

An: Yes. Now before you leave, let me talk to you. So hear me out!
