Makoto POV

The next morning i woke up feeling better, much happier than I usually do. I got ready for school putting on my uniform and grabbing my school bag. I walked down the stairs into the kitchen getting a water. This time I also packed my lunch in my bag. It was only minutes later when I was at the door putting on my shoes to go to Haru's place. As I continued to his place I couldn't help but wonder am I even welcomed there anymore, I doubt it. Maybe I shouldn't go. I was caught up in my thoughts I hadn't noticed I had already reached his house. Should I? 'Suck it up! Your already here my gosh'. That's right I'm already here there's no turning back. I knocked on the door surprisingly Haru opened it wearing a apron over his school uniform. He seemed suprised to see me and so was i. Haru seemingly recovered from his shock because he then motioned his head for me to come inside. I guess I am still welcomed I thought as I walked inside.

The scent of sauteed fish invaded my nostrils causing me to look into the kitchen. Of course there was the mackrel cooking on the stove. He told me to sit down at the table and wait for him but I stayed where I was standing. Sudden guilt hit me like a train. I realized that because my strange behavior as of lately Haru had to do all this himself. He probably felt like he couldn't rely on me anymore. I'm a horrible person.

I continued to stare at Haru in the kitchen and made a decision. I'm going to make it up to him.

"Haru" I said determined. " Imma do it" now he definitely looked confused. I walked into the kitchen and dragged him out to the table.

"Haru sit down"
"Um"he responded but did as told. I went into the kitchen to finish cook the food. Im not the best cook but I've been practicing. Not long afterwards I finished cooking his breakfast.
"Ta-da heres breakfast" Haru blank expression remained on his face as he picks up the spoon. Hesitantly he eats some he closed his eyes as he chewed. I swear it looked like he was checking to make sure it wasn't poisoned. After he finished that bite he looked at me giving me a approving nod and small smile. Yes! My cooking isn't complete trash.

I continued with my happy thoughts of how he praised my cooking. Haru stood up and walked into the kitchen"Makoto are you ok?"he asks while cleaning his dish. Wow that was quick.
"Yep im better then ok. Is there something wrong with the way im acting?"
"No" he says putting his dish away. "Im kind of relieved"haru says quietly. He turns to me and gives me a soft smile causing my heart to skip a beat and cheeks to heat up. I smiled back before turning away to hide my burning cheeks.
"Lets go to school now"haru nods and grabbed his bag. We walked to school together. My whole day was going great until.

"Bye haru i might come over for dinner tonight"
"K"i contiuned on my way home
"Buzz,buzz" my phone rings I took it out of my pants pocket hurriedly to see who it was.
"Kisumi?"
"Hey makoto do you by any chance want to hang out tomorrow"
"Uh i dont know"
"Huh, how come?"
"I was planning on hanging out with haru"
"Wha thats a suprise"
"Why is that so suprising"
"Well i started i thought you started ignoring haru because you didnt want to hurt him"kisumi said in a serious tone making him seem angry

(3rd person POV)

thats right the reason started ignoring him was because i was scared of hurting him makoto thinks to himself. His eyes losing its spark once again. The thought of haru bring hurt and it being all his fault terrified him.
"Makoto are you still there"
"Um i guess i can hang out with you tomorrow"
"Huh really!ok see ya"makoto hangs up his phone and walks into his dark house
