"I wonder where Doumeki-kun went off to?" Himawari-chan asked, and looked at Watanuki for an answer. The boy put a hand in front of him and waved it back and forth. "Oh that doesn't matter right now. (What matters is that you can't see him) Watanuki whispered.

"What?" Kunogi asked, as she picked apart her store bought chocolate.

Doumeki eyed the chocolate and felt his phantom stomach gurgle. "I think I'm going to die." Doumeki said, his words not taking on the faintest inflection, like he was just stating a fact. He looked at the girl's food, and then he looked at Watanuki's food. He was hungry.

"Is this what ghosts call regret?" Doumeki pondered out loud and Watanuki had to choke down the ohagi he was eating.

"Shut up." Watanuki said under his breath, trying to get the moron to be quiet because he was having a conversation with the lovely, beautiful, perfect, wonderful Himawari-chan.

"I regret not finishing that rice ball." Doumeki said and sat down next to Himawari-chan. He looked down at her bento. "I think I know the reason why ghost come after you."

Watanuki tried to wipe the panicked look off his face. Doumeki was going to get him in trouble, even if Himawari-chan couldn't see the big dofus, she might be able to sense something, or Watanuki would betray himself and start yelling at said dofus.

"They come after you because they're hungry. You should leave offerings for them and maybe they'll leave you alone." Doumeki said, and he looked at Watanuki like he wanted an offering too.

Watanuki's panicked expression turned angry. "You jackass."

"Watanuki?" Himawari asked, as Watanuki was looking directly at her, or directly to the left of her--but still kind of looking at her--and calling her a jackass…?

"No, no. Himawari-chan, you…" He tried to track down an excuse as fast as he could, and the only thing that came to him was--

"I have tourettes." Watanuki blurted

"And bipolar disorder." Doumeki added for clarification sake.

"No I do not." Watanuki retorted, and then bit his lip when he realized that he'd said that aloud.

Himawari looked at him. "You do? Oh that's too bad." She made a sad face at him, but then instantaneously brightened up. "Is that the reason why you're always shouting things at Doumeki?"

"Yes."

"No." Watanuki growled, and threw a spiteful look to the left of Himawari-chan.

"Then I don't think it's too bad. Tourettes sound fun." Himawari chirped (like a beautiful, song bird) in that completely oblivious way and Watanuki felt like crying that he didn't have tourettes and clarifying to Himawari-chan that it was a horrible disease.

"Ahhaahah, yeah its not so…bad." Watanuki said weakly and wished that a big boulder would fall out of the sky and crush him, that way he didn't have to worry about anyone seeing him when he jumped on Doumeki and choked him to life, so he could choke him right back to death.
