One day, Blake was sitting down on a bench, working on some unfinished homework. He then became aware of someone standing in front of him. He looked up and saw a girl standing in front of him. He recognized it to be one of Laika's friends. She had an unusually solemn look on her face. She fidgeted around nervously. Blake looked at her curiously. Then the girl spoke up.

"You are Blake, right? Laika's boyfriend?" she asked nervously.

"Yes, why?" he replied.

"Laika said she wants to break up with you."

Blake instantly froze. He looked at her with a shocked face, but only for a split second. That shock soon turned to anger. "You think I am that stupid, don't you? I know what you are trying to do! You are trying to wedge me and Laika apart, aren't you?! DON'T YOU DARE PISS ME OFF, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" he shouted, full of rage.

The girl instantly backed off and ran away, seeing his rage. Sai, Blake's friend, heard his shouts and instantly came towards him. He tried to calm Blake down. Instead, Blake ran away and unlocked the classroom door. Soon, it was lunchtime. Blake stood outside the door, waiting for everyone to leave so that he could lock the door. After he locked the door, he didn't go for lunch as he would normally do, Instead, he sat down in front of the door and cranked up some music on his laptop. He leaned his head against the wall. Slowly, tears started to stream down his face. Sai was walking around the classes, looking for his friend. When he saw Blake crying, he instantly came over to him. Blake cried for 15 minutes, unable to accept reality. For the next few days, his attitude changed. He became lethargic, preferring to just sit and listen to music.
