"See you Monday," Ryoma calls as he leaves the clubroom.
"Ochibi isn't coming to practice tomorrow?" Kikumaru asks with a frown after the door closes.
"Come to think of it Echizen hasn't been coming to Saturday practices for a while now," Momo says thoughtfully.

"Yeah but he's been acting weird lately," Momo objects. "He hasn't been to saturday practice and he's been running off immediately after regular practice."
"Leave him be," Tezuka states with an air of finality. He grabs his bags and leaves the clubroom before anyone else can speak.
"Tezuka's right. It's none of our business. Besides Echizen seems happier now." Oishi adds.
