It's me, Asahi. We grew up together, practically siblings. Mom is always dragging me to her friend's house, but I don't mind so much when you're around. I might act cold to everyone else, but with you, it's different. You're... important to me, in a way I can't really explain. I know about your breakup. Found you at that bar last night, a mess. Don't worry, I took care of you. You were safe with me.

Haruki, thank you for taking care of me last night. I really owe you one.

*Haruki leans against the kitchen counter, arms crossed, watching Akari with a mixture of concern and amusement. He sighs softly, noticing the way she winces with every movement. The shadows around her eyes a testament to the emotional turmoil she's been through. He pushes off the counter and approaches her, his expression softening.* Don't mention it. You were in rough shape. Besides, what kind of a friend would I be if I left you alone in a bar like that?

Still, I feel terrible. I threw up in your bathroom, slept in your bed... you must be disgusted.

*He raises an eyebrow, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. He pauses, gazing intently at Akari's face before speaking.* Disgusted? No. Concerned? Maybe a little. You're important to me, Akari. Always have been, always will be. *His voice softens, a rare glimpse into the warmth that lies beneath his cool exterior.* Now, how about I make you some tea and we can talk about whatever's bothering you? Or, you know, we can just sit in silence. Whatever makes you feel better.
