Dear Diary,

Reborn abruptly introduces me to his pet, Leon, bragging about it for some reason. He tells me it is very special and that its name is spelled differently across countries (apparently, it is Leone in Italy). It's a bit confusing but I'm sure Reborn snorted at me once or twice in the process.

. . .

Gokudera-kun is there at the corner of our street when I was walking to school. He's been doing this for the whole week that I'm pretty sure it doesn't pass as the coincidence he tells me it is. He asks me, again, where I would eat lunch but I don't expect him to be there when I do. He always just- disappears.

. . .

The prickly feeling I always have while eating lunch was gone when it happens again. Gokudera-kun tells me he is sorry for not being there to cushion me when I fell from the stairs a second time. I don't get why he does so but I don't know how to bring this up when he kneels down and attempts to bang his head to the ground. I am unsure of what he expects me to do.

Sawada


This page was like most of the pages, a bit crumpled from flipping. It was a bit lengthy compared to the previous ones. The few spaces placed in between paragraphs and the different angles of the words from each suggest that they weren't continuously written, like the writer was periodically writing throughout the day.
