Rize pulled his collar and dragged him somewhere, the situation become quiet again.
No one of them move or talk or see each other face, but Sasaki brace himself to break the awkward situation between them.

S.H : Um.. Touka? A-About that.. uh.. I didn't do it intentionally! I was tripped and Tsukiyama-san pushed me, really!!
K.T : .... Sorry, please leave me alone.

Touka ran left Sasaki behind, after freezing for several minutes finally He snapped out and changed his clothes.
With blank mind, He left the back stage and his friends noticed him.

S.G : Sa-san, there you are! LOL! Why the hell you are on the stage?!?
U.K : ... Congrats. For the second kiss, I mean.
Y.S : Yeah. Cong-
S.H : .... Ugh.
M.T : ?!? Sasaki? What's wrong? 
S.H : Guys, what should I do? I think Touka hates me for real. I already told her that it was accident but She asked me to leave her alone.
Y.S : Well, She must be shocked. Just give her some times, maman.
S.H : ... *sigh*I hope so.

Suddenly someone with similar voice yelled loudly.

K.A : P.A.N.D.A!!!
S.H : !! A-Ayato-kun?!?
K.A : What the hell did you do to my sister?!?
S.H : It was accident!!
Y.S : Now, now. Ayato-kun, it's not polite to call him panda, you should call him.. BRO-IN-LAW!!
K.A : What?! HELL NO!!!
F.H : A-Ayato-kun, calm down.
M.T : Hmm~ You bring your cute girlfriend here? So sweet~
K.A : *blush* She is not my girlfriend!!
U.K : You are blushing. If She is not your girlfriend, at least you like her.
S.G : I see.. Touka's lil bro is tsundere type.
K.A : I'LL KILL YOU!!
S.H : GAH! GUYS, YOU ONLY MAKE IT WORSE!! RUN!!

For a moment, her face become more red.
Seeing her reaction, Yoriko laughed and pat Touka's back.

K.Y : Hint one : You are protective towards him. Hint two : You seems really happy when you are with him. Hint three : You don't like when I asked you what if Sasaki has a girlfriend.
K.T : Argh!! Yoriko!! STOP!!
K.Y : Hehe~ If you like him so much like that, why don't you confess to him?
K.T : Huh? Confess? ...I think that He confessed to me once but I reject him.
K.Y : The past is the past. Maybe you reject him because you don't like him yet back then.
K.T : B-but I..
K.Y : Then, is it okay if Sasaki going out with another girl?
K.T : ....
