"𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎—"

Kazuha was cut off upon being pulled back outside, unable to react as the younger teen continued to drag him down the street.

"Scaramouche?"

Kazuha observed with a look of worry. The younger male seemed a lot more distressed than usual, and his silent hurry did not contribute well to his speculations.

"What's wrong?" He asked carefully.

Scaramouche pursed his lips, still silent despite his inquiries. However, Kazuha stayed patient, waiting until the male was ready to reveal what exactly was happening.

"Have you...noticed anything strange?" Scaramouche slowly began. "About [name], I mean."

Something told him that Scaramouche was not joking. Kazuha hummed in thought, attempting to look back at the time he had spent with the girl the past few weeks.

"She's been weird for the past few years, actually."

The male beside him let out a noise of surprise at his answer, looking up at him with furrowed brows. "Years?"

"After her...father left. She was a lot less herself. Initially, I thought it was because of that, but these days..."

Something is happening in that house.

"I found this."

Scaramouche held out the small recording device, causing Kazuha to look down with a grave expression. He gave the boy a nod, who took the hint and pressed the play button.
