Carala knocked on the door.
"Huh? Basa senpai?" Haruhi said in surprise when she opened the door. "Aren't you cold?!"
Carala's cheeks were extremely red in the cold November air. Snow was starting to fall and she was only wearing a fall jacket and a yellow scarf.
"No.." Carala shivered.
"Come in then!" Haruhi dragged Carala inside and in front of the heater in her room.
"What's wrong?" Haruhi asked, setting down mugs of hot chocolate.
"I'm scared.." Carala whispered.
Haruhi blinked. "Of course you're scared! If you're not, that's not very human."
"No..I don't want Kirani back..I don't want to be Tekila.." Carala buried her head into her knees.
"Talking about it might help." Haruhi said gently.
"No..I'm so scared, this is the first time I left the house.." Carala's voice was muffled.
Haruhi blinked in surprise. "That was months ago! You really didn't leave the house?!"
Carala shook her head. "Taka and Mitsu don't know where I am right now." She told her. "They're always so worried.."
"Basa senpai.." Haruhi started.
"Cara." Carala corrected.
"Cara san.."
"Cara chan."
"Fine, Cara chan. Mori senpai and Honey senpai are worried about your wellbeing. It's unhealthy to be stuck in a house all day, for nearly four months now." Haruhi sipped her hot chocolate.
Suddenly, Haruhi's house phone started ringing, and she went to get it.
Carala was silent for a few moments, and looked up in surprise when Haruhi came running back.
"It's Mori senpai. He's coming to pick you up. He thought you gone missing, and by the sound of it, scaring him half to death." Haruhi informed her.
Carala blinked. "I didn't think he'd be scared."
Haruhi almost rolled her eyes. "Mori senpai cares about you. He likes you."
"Of course. Who can't like me?" Carala smiled as he wrapped her fingers around the cooled hot chocolate mug.

"She's right here." Haruhi led Takashi into her room.
"Cara!" Takashi cried.
Carala waved. "Hi Taka."
Suddenly, he grabbed her into a tight hug.
"I'm fine, don't worry." Carala smiled, hugging him back.
"Don't ever scare me like that again." Takashi's face was pale.
"I won't."
If only she knew how easily that could be broken.
