My first collection of one shots, Enjoy! :)
Ritsu was walking down the hallway, not minding her surroundings. She wasn't feeling well that day, because she knew that her best friend was moving in a few days, and she wasn't prepared for it yet.

Ritsu's POV
"Mio we have to go… our break is done…" I silently told Mio, who was sleeping.
She stood up and ran into the restroom.
"Mio…!" I ran after her. What a friend I am… thinking she was sleeping… but she was actually crying.
"Mio its alright…"
It was my first time seeing Mio like that… the other times… she only told me about them. Since that time, I vowed to myself that I'd be there for Mio when she was down, even if she is moving. But so far… all I do is get her angry…
I went to food stall we were at a while ago and asked for tissue. I came back, finding Mio washing her face. I handed her the tissue.
I suck at comforting people…
We went to our classmates, who were near the gate. It was our Intrams that day, so we had no classes.
"Mio! Are you alright?" One of our good guy friends asked.
But Mio didn't answer. Instead she laid her head on my shoulder.
"Shh its alright Mio." I patted her head. I could feel her tears on my shoulder, but I didn't mind.
~0~
Mio stopped crying after a while. I felt terrible though. I wasn't able to cheer her up. Everyone else was able to though. I'm a terrible friend…
~0~
"Ritsu…? Are you alright…?" Yui asked her.
They were sitting down, tired from the events that happened during the day.
No… I'm not… I'm never going to be alright…
At that moment, Mio saw the side of Ritsu she never saw before. Her vulnerable side at its weakest. No one ever saw Ritsu cried before, except when it was Mio's last day in Sakuragaoka Girl's High School. They had been chatting and Mio occasionally visited Sakuragaoka before she really did leave the country. And now, Ritsu's main source of support and happiness is moving to a different country.

September 2, 2011.
Sigh… She's leaving on Monday… and I bet she's mad at me… I didn't mean to get her angry after her farewell party… I just misunderstood her…
"MIO!" Yui and the others shouted. I stood up and followed. I was silently excited, more excited than the others, but I let the others go to her first. It sounds fair that way, since I usually hug her first and all.
But now she's going to ignore me…
"Hey lets all go back to the table!" Mugi shouted.
I groggily walked back to the table until I felt someone hug me really tightly from behind.
"I thought you went home!" Mio exclaimed.
"Mio…? I thought you were mad at me…?"
"Why would I be mad at you?"
"Because I thought I got you mad last weekend… and you weren't online… I know you have a life and all, but still…"
"I'm not." She smiled. Sigh… I'm going to miss that smile…
But I smiled back, knowing it was going to be that last time we'd see each other in a long time.
Waa! Its so short… I'm sorry minna. T.T
I hope you enjoyed it though.
Well… Ja'ne!
