Narrator's POV
It was a normal day for Haruka Nanami she was just heading to the 3rd lesson room where she was about to meet with the band Starish. When she heard some noises coming from there, then she saw Natsuki trying to put a dress on Syo who was clearly resisting
"Come on Syo-chan, Len Kagamine wore a dress and he didn't die. On the contraire he's famous." Natsuki said while trying to make Syo wear a short frilly white dress.
"I DON'T CARE WHAT HE DID! I'M NOT WEARING SOME STUPID DRESS! IF YOU LIKE IT SO MUCH WEAR IT YOURSELF!" Syo yelled angry.
"I'm too tall it won't look well on me." Natsuki said.
"I HATE YOU!" Syo said while finally getting Natsuki off of him.
Masato was sitting near the window reading a book trying to ignore the noise. Ren was checking some messages from his cellphone. Otoya had been watching their arguments and keeping his distance. Tokiya had been checking something on his IPhone when he noticed Haruka's presence.
"Hello Nanami." Tokiya said and Haruka just blushed and entered the room.
"Hi guys I'm sorry if I'm interrupting something." Haruka said politely while walking towards the piano.
"Of course not. So why did you take so long?" Otoya said cheerfully.
"Well I just finished this new song I hope you guys like it." Haruka said while giving them some sheets of paper.
Ren read the sheet and said in a flirty tone of voice.
"As always my little lamb writes the best music."
"I agree, this song is very beautiful." Masato said.
"Thanks guys." Haruka said sweetly and they all started to work on some lyrics for the new song. Then they started to play the song, it was their typical type of song about love and friendship. When they were finished practicing it was 5:45 and the sun was setting.
"With the lyrics this song is amazing." Otoya said cheerfully.
"Oh my god, look at the time it's almost 6:00."Haruka said while checking her watch.
"What? Really? Wow, time really passed fast today. I didn't even feel the hours." Syo said surprised.
"Well, time passes when you're having fun." Natsuki said.
"I'm hungry, little lamb. How about I treat you to some dinner?" Ren said while putting one of his hands on her shoulder.
"Oh, um, you're so nice Jinguji-san. Treating dinner to all of us." Haruka said. She misunderstood.
"Little lamb I meant…"Ren started and Masato grabbed Haruka's arm and walked away with her towards the door.
"Thanks Ren, I didn't know you were so generous." Otoya said.
"Yes thank you even though you had different intentions." Tokiya said while walking towards the door.
"You jerks….." Ren mumbled and no one heard him while going to the cafeteria. When they arrived to the cafeteria. They all ordered expensive food, Ren was crying on the inside for his precious wallet. They all sat on the same table.
"Do you think we were too hard on him?" Natsuki whispered while eating duck.
"No he deserves it for trying to be alone with Nanami." Masato said cruelly.
"You will pay for this Hijrikawa." Ren said. While everyone was eating, Tomochika, Haruka's best friend ran towards their table.
"Haru-chan, your parents called the school office they say it's important to talk to you." Tomo-chan said while catching her breath.
"Uh okay, thanks for telling me." Haruka said while standing up from the table.
"Bye guys see you tomorrow." She said with a sweet smile.
She walked towards administration where the secretary instructed her where the phone was and she started to talk with her mother.
"Hi mom, is there something wrong?" Haruka said sweetly.
"Haruka sweetie your father and I were worried to call you, because we don't know how you'll take the news." Haruka's mom said sadly.
"What's wrong?" Haruka answered worried.
"It's grandma. She had a stroke (a brain accident) and she's at the hospital." Haruka's mom said while bursting into tears.
"What….? Mom I'm coming. In which hospital is she's in?" Haruka said crying and trying to be brave.
"Yagami Hospital, it's half an hour from the school in car." Haruka's mom said.
"I'll be there." Haruka responded, she ran to her dorm and she grabbed a jacket and left a note for Tomo-chan.
Tomo-chan
I went to the hospital my grandma had an accident.
She managed to grab a taxi and she was on her way to the hospital. She prayed and prayed for everything to be okay. She loved her grandmother more than anything in this world. She even forgot her cellphone at the dorm, the guys called and called but no answer. When she arrived to the hospital she saw her mother crying. Her father was talking to a doctor. She went and hugged her mother. The doctor went towards them and said.
"The patient is going to live. We manage to stabilize her condition but I'm more worried about her recovery."
"What do you mean?" Haruka said.
"Right now, she can't walk or talk. These are secondary effects of the stroke since it's a brain accident it affects this abilities. She will need constant help and support." The doctor said calmly but Haruka's mom just started to cry more.
"But can she recover?" Haruka's father asked.
"With time and depending on her, there are some patients that never recover. But I can sense that she's a strong woman." The doctor said.
"Okay, when can she leave?" Haruka said.
"In a week, but she should be taken to a place where she can rest." The doctor said.
"Her house in the country, it's the only place where she can relax." Haruka's mother said.
"Okay the hospital can give you some of the equipment you'll need for her care." The doctor said.
"When can we see her?" Haruka said crying.
"Tomorrow, she's resting right now." The doctor left and they stayed there all night.
The next day when Tomo-chan she was surprised That Haruka still wasn't back. Tomochika tried calling her and found Haruka's cellphone under her pillow. She got a bit worried, Haruka was a bit of an airhead but she would take her cellphone anywhere just in case.
"I wonder what happened." Tomochika thought. "I should get changed and go to class"
She got changed into her uniform and she went to her classroom. Since she was Haruka's best friend and roommate, she had to deal with everyone asking for Haruka. Then when it was lunchtime she was ambushed by the guys, she had been sitting there minding her own business when the guys went towards her and interrogated her.
"Where's Nanami?" Tokiya asked a bit worried.
"I called her and she didn't answer." Otoya said.
"Is she sick?" Masato asked.
"Did she have to leave school?" Ren asked worried.
"Where is she?" Syo said between angry and worried.
"Please, Tomo-chan can you tell us?" Natsuki said.
"I DON'T KNOW! SHE LEFT HER CELLPHONE AND SHE DIDN'T COME BACK ALL NIGHT!" Tomo-chan yelled desperate.
"Where did she go?" Tokiya asked.
"To the hospital, her grandmother had an accident." She responded a bit more calmed. Then they left.
The whole week, Haruka didn't show for any class. She had stayed with her grandmother. But Sunday, while everyone was out she went to the academy and went to Saotome's office. When she opened the door she found Saotome sitting in his chair playing with a little penguin figure he had. She mumbled an excuse me and he made her take a seat.
"Miss Nanami, I have been informed that you haven't been present for classes in this week. May you please tell me why? Because I can't have a composer that's not responsible." He said in a mellow tone of voice.
"That is the reason of why I am here. Mr. Saotome, thank you for the opportunity that you have given me to be here in your school. Thanks to this school I have learned things about myself and made new friends. But I have to resign as a composer and a student of this academy." She said sad but tranquil. Saotome didn't seem surprised or worried; he just stared at her with an emotionless face.
"Miss Nanami, may I please ask why you have decided this?" He asked.
"Well Mr. Saotome, my grandmother had a stroke and she needs someone to take care of her. My parents have to work to pay her treatments, we can't afford a private nurse and I'm the only one that can help her." She said.
"What about the group? Have you even stopped to think about them?" Saotome asked seriously.
"Well…no but I think they'll understand." She said.
"I knew this would happen since the moment you became the band's composer." Saotome said.
"What do you mean?" Haruka said sadly.
"Miss Nanami, forgive me for saying this but you are not capable to think for yourself. You care too much about others and their needs, to make it in the music world you must be able to put your needs before others. You are also too kind hearted and easy to manipulate, trust me producers, managers and reporters eat people like you for breakfast. I understand that you want to take care of your grandmother but I don't believe that someone else can't take care of her. I think you want to take care of her because in your mind you owe it to her." Saotome said seriously.
"She's my grandmother! I want to take care of her because she took care of me. I owe her that much." Haruka said while starting to cry.
"Did I also say that you're too sensitive and emotional? Look I respect your decision, I'm only saying that I always knew that either something would make you want to quit or that it was going to get too hard for you to handle. I already found the perfect replacement if this would ever happen. Don't worry the guys will be alright, I hope you grandmother gets better." He said while trying to console her.
Haruka stared at him and signed something that confirmed her leaving and the annulment of her contract with the band. And went to her dorm where she started to pack up everything. Her books, her clothing, her personal things and then there was her poster. She looked at it for a while, it was Tokiya as his ex-cover, Hayato, he was the reason why she decided to go to school here, and he was the reason why she started to love music even more. She couldn't find herself to take it off; she left it there and called a cab. When her cab arrived, the whole band plus Tomo-chan had just arrived from looking for Haruka in every hospital in the area and then they saw her and ran towards her.
"HARU-CHAN!" Tomo-chan yelled and they all ran towards her.
"Oh hi guys." Haruka said sadly while looking down.
"Hi? We haven't seen you in a week and you say hi." Syo said a bit angry.
"We've been looking for you in like every hospital." Tomo-chan said.
"Oh, really." Haruka said sadly and then the guys noticed her bags and the cab.
"Are you going somewhere?" Otoya asked.
"Well…I'm leaving Saotome Academy." She answered.
"For vacation?" Tokiya asked.
"No, I'm leaving for good and I also resign from being your composer." Haruka said sadly.
"What? Why?" Everyone asked confused.
"My grandmother had a brain accident and she needs someone to help her with her recovery. My parents have to work and I decided that I'll help her." Haruka answered.
"But….without you we wouldn't be a band." Ren said.
"I'm sorry but the headmaster already has an available replacement." Haruka said.
"Yeah but we want you to be our composer, not anyone else." Masato said.
"Please don't be like that." Haruka said.
"Are you giving up writing music?" Natsuki asked.
"Professionally yes, but to be honest I don't feel like I'm giving something up. I feel more like this is meant to be." She said.
"Miss, I can't stay here forever!" the cab driver yelled and Haruka made a sign that she was just leaving.
"I can't believe you're leaving, call me please." Tomo-chan said while hugging Haruka.
"Bye, you're an amazing friend." Haruka said. Then she said goodbye to all the guys with a soft bye and they couldn't answer a thing. To be honest they felt as if they were being abandoned.
"I can't believe she's gone." Otoya thought
One week later:
After a week of only receiving classes, the guys are in lesson room 3 after class. Otoya was distracted watching the wall, Ren was sitting next to the window with his arms behind his head, Masato was sitting in his usual sitting pose, Syo was throwing a small ball to the wall, Natsuki was watching photos of cute puppies on his cellphone and Tokiya was just standing there in silence.
"I can't believe Saotome; he wants a new song, so he's making us meet this composer." Tokiya said bitterly.
And they all remembered last night's events.
Flashback
Saotome is sitting in his desk while watching the six young men. They all were confused on why they were there.
"As a band you have to get use of losing people in your group. Yes Miss Nanami was talented, but she's not the only composer in the world." Saotome said.
"Yes, but I refuse to work with anyone else." Tokiya said and Saotome smirked.
"I think none of you have any other choice, in the contract you signed. You've promised to work with or without Nanami-san." Saotome said.
"What? I don't remember that!" Syo yelled.
"Of course it was there, it was in the small letters." Saotome replied.
"Headmaster, but we don't want to work with anyone else." Otoya said.
"Legally it's no longer up to if you want to or not, it's that you have to. But you guys have nothing to worry about the person I chose is one of best composers in the world. And to prove my point the composer is coming tomorrow just to meet you guys. Be there at 4:30 or you'll never be singers ever again in your lives." Saotome said while pointing at them.
End of Flashback
They all groaned at that memory. Ren said in his typical arrogant tone of voice.
"If this composer is a guy I'm leaving, I can't be in a full complete boy band. That ruins my image with the ladies.
"I thought you were going to say that you can't sing any song that isn't Nanami's." Masato said coldly.
"That too, but honestly we all want to sing. Even without the little lamb." Ren said.
"The truth is that we have to embrace this opportunity and try to the best with it." Tokiya said.
"Yeah but it won't be the same." Syo said in a sad tone of voice. They all thought about what he had just said. Then Ren said while checking his watch that said 5:15.
"Whoever this person is doesn't know how to respect a scheduled time."
"As if you're one to talk." Syo said.
Then the door started to open and on the other end was a girl. She was a bit taller than Haruka; she had dark black and long hair, porcelain type skin and dark red eyes, she had pretty figure (an hourglass figure), she was wearing dark skinny jeans that flattered her figure, a purple sleeveless blouse with a black leather jacket over it and she was wearing black stilettos. In a few words she was beautiful and these guys couldn't stop staring at her. She had a very cute face; her right eye was covered by her long side bangs.
"Um, excuse me; is this lesson room number 3?" She asked with a very cute voice. Ren stood up and took a red rose out of his pocket and started to walk towards her. When he was near her he grabbed one of her hands.
"Hello my angel. Are you lost?" Ren said while kissing her hand. "It must have been hard for an angel like you to be put on this earth."
The girl stared at him and said while gracefully taking his hands off her.
"It's especially hard when people like me have to share the same air with disgusting animals like you." She said coldly and without any hint of fear. Ren stared at her and couldn't believe what she had just said. A girl had physically and verbally rejected him.
"Ohhhh." Syo said surprised and everyone stared at her. She started to walk around the classroom and she looked as if she was looking for something. But she was just analyzing the place then she walked towards Otoya feeling he was someone that could answer her question.
"Excuse me, but I'm looking for the band Starish. Did they leave already?" She said with a sweet voice.
"Um well actually we're the band." Otoya said while blushing he had never seen such a pretty girl before. She just stared at him and then to everyone else in the room.
"You have got to be kidding me." She mumbled only Otoya could understand what she said. She then walked towards the door and left without saying a word.
"Who was that girl?" Syo asked confused and surprised.
"I don't know but I sure do want to get to know her." Ren said.
"You idiot." Masato said.
Then they started an argument and Otoya kept analyzing what she said and what she meant.
The next day:
They were all in the S class waiting for the teacher to come. Ren was staring at the same red rose he had yesterday and said.
"Who do you think that girl was?"
"Why do you care?" Tokiya said cruelly.
"He cares because that was the first time a woman rejected his so called charms." Masato said.
"I have to admit yesterday's events were quite strange." Natsuki said while placing his hand around his chin.
"All I know is that the mysterious girl didn't seem normal." Syo said.
Then the teacher entered, it was the famous actor Ryuga Hyuga.
"Good Morning class." He said.
"Good Morning sensei." The whole class said in unison.
"I have some news; starting today we are going to have a new student. I want you all to be nice." He said and then he gestured to open the door. And the same girl from yesterday entered. Today she was wearing the school uniform, she had long black stockings on and she had some hairclips in her hair, especially to prevent her bangs falling in her face.
The whole class was staring at her and the guys were so surprised to see her again.
"Class I would like you to meet our new transfer student. Now why don't you present yourself, don't be shy." Hyuga sensei said.
"Hi, my name is Hazuki Shirayuki. It's so nice to meet all of you." She said with a cute and sweet voice.
"Wow she so cute!" some guys in the class said.
"Hey she seems really nice! We should be friends with her!" Some girls were saying.
Then the teacher instructed her to take a seat. Her seat was close with the guys before she could sit down. Otoya appeared out of nowhere and he was smiling.
"Hey, you're the girl from yesterday. I'm Otoya Ittoki, nice to meet you." He said with a smile. At first Hazuki just stared at him then she smiled back.
"Well thank you, I'm Hazuki Shirayuki, it's nice to meet you too." She said sweetly.
"SO CUTE!" Natsuki said while trying to hug her back she blocked herself with Otoya. It took some seconds before Natsuki realized he was hugging Otoya.
"I'm sorry Otoya. Hi, I'm Natsuki Shinomiya. May I just say that you're really cute." Natsuki said.
"Really?" Hazuki said with a very skeptic voice.
"Yeah you're like a little cute kitten. Hey can I call you Hazu neko- chan?" Natsuki said while smiling.
"What? Are you serious?" Hazuki said confused.
"Hey Natsuki stop that! You can't just give her a nickname, you barely know her!" Syo said.
"Come on Syo, just look at her she so cute!" Natsuki said.
"Please forgive them; they act like that all of the time. I'm Masato Hijirikawa." Masato said.
"Nice to meet you and it's okay." She said.
"I'm Tokiya Ichinose." Tokiya said quickly.
"And I'm Syo." Syo said quickly.
"Angel, I knew I would see you again and may just say that you are even more radiant then the sun's rays." Ren said. "I'm Ren Jinguji at your service, my princess."
Hazuki just stared at him, she wanted to hit him but all she did was smile. She then sat down in her seat and received classes. Before lunch everyone in class liked her they all thought she was a sweet girl. It would seem she was Tomochika's new roommate. At lunch they sat together.
Right after class the band had to practice with their composer but she never showed up.
The next day right after school the whole band was called to Saotome's office, and after they arrived, Hazuki entered.
"Hi headmaster, it's so nice to see you again." Hazuki started to say sweetly.
"Miss Shirayuki, drop the act." Saotome said. The guys looked confused. Hazuki just sighed.
"Very well. What is it that you want?" Hazuki said cruelly and with darker tone of voice. The guys stared at her new voice and personality.
"Miss Shirayuki, you are a composer yet you do not show up to your band's rehearsal…" Saotome started to say but was interrupted by Hazuki.
"I refuse to work with them." She said quickly.
"Why?" Saotome asked.
"Just look at them, they're like the Japanese gay version of the backstreet boys. I did not sign up for that." She said while pointing at them.
"Gay?" Ren said.
"Well I'm sorry Shirayuki-san but they are your responsibility now. And till you fully accept it you shall be escorted to the practice's and stay there till you're finished." Saotome said.
"Seriously?" Hazuki said.
"Starting today, I hope you enjoy your practice." Saotome said with a smile. Then they were all escorted to lesson room number 3 by Saotome's personal bodyguards.
When they entered the room they all were staring at Hazuki and she just sat down on a nearby chair and ignored them.
"Um, Shirayuki-san." Otoya said.
"What? What do you want?" Hazuki snapped.
"Do you have multiple personality disorder?" Otoya asked.
"No. Are you naturally this stupid or are you mentally ill?" Hazuki said defensively.
"Um, no." Otoya asked.
"Shouldn't we be practicing?" Tokiya asked.
"Go ahead sing a song maybe that way I can see your talent." Hazuki said while opening a book.
Then the guys started to sing 1000% love, but when they were singing Hazuki kept her eyes glued to the book and didn't even give them so much as a glance. When they were finished, they were pleased with their performance.
"So what do you think?" Natsuki asked. Hazuki took her eyes off the book and said in a cold tone of voice.
"Who's opinion do you want Hazuki's or Shirayuki's?"
They looked at her confused and Natsuki said.
"Hazuki's."
"You suck, that was the worse 3 minutes of my life. My brain will never recover the brain cells it lost by listening to your song. I still can't believe I am forced to be with you guys." Hazuki said.
"What? And what about Shirayuki's opinion?" Syo said pissed.
"Oh my god, that's an amazing song. It's so great that even my heart is beating to a 1000% rate. I love it so much that I can't wait to download it." Hazuki said sweetly. After hearing that they couldn't believe that the same person said those two things.
"Okay forgive me for asking. But are you okay?" Masato said.
"Yes, I'll explain my personality. I'm nice when it benefits me if it doesn't then I'm my real self." Hazuki said.
"You mean cruel and icy." Syo said.
"Exactly." Hazuki replied while opening the book again.
"Wow, looks are deceiving." Natsuki said. "But you're still cute, Hazu-chan."
"What did you just call me? It's Hazuki not Hazu-chan." She said a bit angry.
"Explain to us why you didn't like the song." Tokiya said a bit resented.
"Look the song's rhythm and beat are exceptional. It's obvious that it was written by a great composer. Your voices are also exceptional and they have good synch. The problem in this song are the lyrics. I don't like them. Maybe it's because they are too cheesy and poppy. I mean they'll be a hit with pop fan girls. But that's all the audience you'll have." She explained quickly.
"Wait a second." Ren said and he went towards the piano and inside a book was a magazine with Hazuki on the cover. "You're a model; I knew I had seen you somewhere."
"Wow that means you're already famous. What are you doing here?" Otoya asked.
"Yeah so I model and act sometimes but my passion is music." She said while eating some candy.
"Hey Hazuki, I know you hate us…" Masato said but was interrupted by Hazuki.
"I never said I hated you guys. I can't hate you if I don't know you. I just don't want to work with you guys. Anyways it's obvious you guys don't want me as a composer either." Hazuki said while standing up and closing her book. "And besides I can't see us getting along. If it weren't for that idiot of Saotome, I would have already left back to Tokyo."
"Tokyo?" Syo asked.
"It's where I live and where I get most of my modeling jobs. Well look at the time practice is over bye." Hazuki responded quickly and she left.
"I can't believe her, she so…" Syo started to say but he couldn't finish his sentence.
The next day
During class Hazuki is talking with some classmates with a very sweet and nice voice. The guys are staring at her so confused.
"If they only knew the truth about that…" Syo started to say but he also couldn't finish the sentence.
Then some classmates started to talk.
"God she's so cute." a guy said.
"I'd give anything to go out with her." Another guy said.
"You guys are so lucky." A guy said toward the band.
Hazuki turned around and walked towards the band.
"Hey guys." She said sweetly.
"Hello, where's your evil twin?" Syo said sarcastically.
"I have no idea what you're talking about." She said nicely while sitting in on her desk.
"Well I think Hazu-chan looks very cute this way." Natsuki said. Hazuki just stared at him.
"Oh really thanks." She responded trying to seem adorable. "Hey, can we start practice early today? I kind of have a thing tonight."
"Sure." Tokiya said and the teacher entered.
"Great." Hazuki said and they started to receive class.
After class
The whole band was in the practice room and they were singing another song. Hazuki was sitting in a chair with a pen and a notebook. She had all of her attention on the notebook. When they were finished they stood there waiting for a response or something.
"So….what do you think?" Otoya asked. Hazuki looked at them.
"It's a bit better than the other one. It's still too sweet for my taste but it's not horrible." She said while going back to her notebook.
"Say Hazu-chan, what type of music do you like?" Tokiya asked.
"What did I say about calling me Hazu-chan? Why do I even bother?" She started to say a bit angry but she calmed down. "I like rock n roll, punk and classical music. I'm not into pop and some stuff like that."
"Oh that explains everything." Syo said.
"Hey, when do you need the new song?" she asked.
"Whenever it's ready my dark angel." Ren said while touching her hair and shoulders from behind. "But let's talk about something else. Like you and me."
"God, I swear whenever you open your mouth I want to kill you." Hazuki said while standing up.
"I can understand the feeling." Masato said.
"Oh my god I'm so late." Hazuki said while checking her watch.
"Late for what?" Natsuki asked.
"For a very important party." She said while taking her jacket off then her sweater when she was unbuttoning her shirt. Syo got surprised.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing?" Syo yelled he was blushing. She didn't even look at him. When she took her shirt off she had what seemed a black shirt on. She then took off her skirt to reveal it was a black tight dress that looked really good on her. She took off her shoes and stockings and threw them in a bag she had. She took a pair of stilettos out of her bag and put them on.
"Um what are you doing?" Otoya asked confused. She took a makeup bag out of her bag and started to put some makeup on.
"Changing." She responded.
"Well, you look beautiful." Ren said.
"Thanks I guess." She said while fixing her hair and she took a trench coat out of her bag and threw it on her. Then while she was walking to the door she gave some sheets of paper to Tokiya.
"Here it's a decent song. I wrote it and you should practice it for tomorrow. And don't worry about the lyrics, I already wrote them." She said. Then she left without more explanation.
"She wrote a song and apparently she also wrote the lyrics. There's a sheet for all of us with our parts of the song." Tokiya said while giving all of them their sheets. It took a while for all of them to read the lyrics and look at the music. They were all shocked she had written something like that.
"This song is amazing." Otoya said energetically.
"I still can't believe she wrote this." Syo said surprised.
"Well this song is so different to what we're used yet it's amazing." Natsuki said with a voice full of admiration.
"Well the headmaster did say she was very talented." Masato said.
"She's not just talented, this song shows that she's a passionate for music." Tokiya said. "These lyrics are very good."
"Hmm, now the angel has only intrigued more." Ren said.
At the cafeteria
They are all having dinner when Tomo-chan comes toward them with a tray of food.
"Hey can I sit with you guys?" she asked.
"Sure." Otoya said.
"So have you guys seen the song Hazuki wrote?" She asked while eating her typical teriyaki burger.
"Yeah it's amazing." Syo said.
"So what do you think of her?" Masato asked.
"I think she's so cool. She says I can use any of her designer clothes and she has the coolest collection of everything." Tomo-chan responded.
"But you do know she's evil right?" Syo said.
"What do you mean by evil? She's kind of mean but that's actually what I like about her and she's like a genius." She responded.
"You like her right, me too." Natsuki said with a smile.
"Yeah, I've spoken with Haruka, she's happy back in the country." Tomo-chan said.
"I've completely forgotten about her." They all thought.
They had forgotten about Haruka for looking for ways to get along with Hazuki.
