Kou sat in his room, his blue eyes wavering as he shuffled through the pictures that lay on his bed. The pictures contained mostly himself, due to the pictures being taken by his friend, Mitsuba.

After Tsukasa manipulated Mitsuba and pretty much ruined the guy he used to be, he's been trying to still be active and outgoing around his friends he still has.

Kou glanced over to the left of him, eyeing the camera Mitsuba had with him all the time. He grabbed the black colored camera, holding it up to his chest while dipping his head down.

"I'll never forgive him. Never. Not in a million years." Kou thought, beyond angry at this point at Tsukasa. He squeezed his eyes as well as holding his breath a bit.

Suddenly, the door to Kou's room, which he thought he had locked, was turned open. Kou quickly gathered all the pictures in one bunch, all disorganized and quickly stuffed them away, as well as the camera.

Kou looked up nervously to find his big brother, Teru. They both made eye contact before Teru blinked confusingly at his brother's face, yet didn't question it.

"Oh, Teru.. hey." Kou's shoulders dropped before exhaling. "Please knock next time.." He mumbled the last part. Teru slowly nodded. "Right. By the way, I picked up some food if you want some." He informed.

Kou tilted his head. "Why would you order food when you have a great cook already here?" He joked with a slight boast.

He was pretty much right, but Teru didn't respond quickly, only sighing and shaking his head. "True- just.. don't take as long, okay?" Teru faintly smiled.

Kou nodded, forcing a faint smile on his face as well. Teru eventually closed the door halfway, causing Kou to take an inhale of relief. He pulled himself together before following his brother.

Days went by with Kou still holding the grudge of Mitsuba's disappearance. The last time Kou ever saw him, was when Mitsuba was taking the role of the third wonder. It was more like he was manipulated that time.

The after school bells rung, causing Kou to snap out of his thoughts. He looked up, removing his hand from the side of his face. Eventually, he made his way to the girl's bathroom to start his cleaning job he worked alongside Yashiro.

When Kou was about to open his mouth, he found no Yashiro or Hanako. Usually, he'd go look for them, but kept to himself and worked independently.

He grabbed yellow bright gloves that rested on the edge of the mop bucket. Kou looked up with a soft sigh, glancing over at one of the mirrors.

"This mirror was the last time I ever saw Mitsuba." Kou slanted his eyes as he thought, placing his hand on the mirror while dipping his head. He stood there for a while before snapping out of his gloomy state for a moment.
