After the accident and Allen locking himself in his new room for 5 whole days, he found out Nea went to Mana's apartment to grab some personal items for Allen before the place went back on the market. He was grateful to Nea for doing that. He now has pictures of Mana and him, clothes, some other random things that he and Mana owned, and Mana's clown stuff. He used to be a traveling pierrot before Allen was born.

Allen finally rearranged his room and he made sure to place a picture of Mana on his nightstand. Nea bought him a new phone and some little phone accessories. Allen will be going back to school now. He's already missed enough days. Allen sighs as he gets driven to school. "Hey, kiddo, make sure to have a good day, alright?" Nea says. Allen nods and gives him a weak smile. Allen doesn't want to tell Nea about getting bullied, so he'll have to be extra careful. Maybe he'll say some weird lie about his uniform getting destroyed.

They arrive and Allen gets out of the car. They say their goodbyes and Allen enters the building. He enters Ms. Bell's classroom and sits in his seat. The kids in there give him weird stares and laugh at him. Allen sighs. "Allen, you're back!" Lavi shouts from the entrance. Allen smiles at him and notices that Kanda is also there. He waves to the pair and they sit next to Allen. "You were gone for five whole days! We even broke into your apartment but ran into a completely different family! So embarrassing! Did you move?" Lavi asks.

Allen sighs and frowns. "Yeah, I did," Allen replies. Lavi notices the sad tone in his voice. "Hey, buddy! It's alright. You have memories attached to that house and that's okay, but sometimes change is better! Does the place look nicer?" Lavi asks in an attempt to cheer Allen up. Allen sighs and gives Lavi a weak smile. He's grateful for his friends. "Yeah, the place is way better, but I like my old one better. Though, there is something more to this. I'll tell you once we meet up with Lenalee at lunch." Allen says. Lavi and Kanda get confused and nod.

Allen sighs. He knows what he'll say will upset Lavi greatly. He and Mana we're like best friends. As Allen was chatting with Lavi, Kanda noticed the body language, facial expressions, and tones. He knew something terrible had happened to Mana, but he won't pry.

It's lunch and Allen managed to get his friends' numbers again. Allen still hasn't directly said anything about Mana to anyone, but he told Kanda about it since he was the first to figure it out.

The four friends sit down at the library and start talking. Allen told them about what happened to Mana and how he's now living with his uncle. Lavi started crying, and after seeing his friend cry and still having fresh mental wounds, Allen started crying, and then Lenalee started crying. The news of Mana's death caused a whole chain reaction. Kanda only met Mana once and for a short time, so he didn't feel any particular way.

After the trio stopped crying, they resumed their usual activity. To stay off the topic of Mana, they started discussing their weekend plans and everything. Allen said that they could meet his uncle once they got out of school. They were excited, except for Kanda. He just felt like this was a normal thing. The group finished their lunch and the bell rang.

School got out and the group escorted Allen out of his 6th-period class. Allen leads them to the parking lot and sees Nea doing something on his phone. "Nea!" Allen calls out. Nea looks up at him and smiles. The group wall up to Nea. "Nea, my friends wanted to meet you," Allen informs. Nea nearly chokes on his spit when he sees them. "Look at you, Mr. Popular!" Nea says with a whistle. Allen blushes in embarrassment.

"So, which ones your mate?" Nea asks with a smirk. Allen blushes even more and his friends start to laugh at him. "S-Shut up! I don't have one yet..." Allen mutters. Nea laughs. Allen pouts and lightly hits him. Lavi ruffles Allen's hair. "Don't worry, little buddy! We'll find you a mate!" Lavi says. Lenalee giggles. "Yeah, we'll find you the best one!" Lenalee chimes in. Allen groans. "God, you guys are just like Nea," he says in defeat. They laugh at him once more.

Kanda scoffs. "How's a moyashi Alpha like you supposed to find a mate when you can't even grow two inches." Kanda taunts. Allen turns dark. "I don't know. Maybe if we dress you up in a little maid outfit and chop your legs off, you'd be the perfect mate~" Allen retorts. Kanda scoffs and rolls his eye. "I'm an Alpha. That won't work. I'd simply overpower all of you." he says. Allen starts laughing.

Nea smiles as he sees his nephew having fun. He's glad to see that Allen has good friends like them.

After a bit, they part ways and Nea drives Allen home. They get home and Allen forces Nea to do his homework because he simply didn't want to do it that day.
