Ryoma woke up and found herself in her room. She remembered what happened last night. She smiled. She's really happy that she met Sei again and they were able to clear up the misunderstanding.
'To think that Sei is Yukimura… I can't believe he was by my side all this time without me noticing. I really can't believe it.' Ryoma though inwardly. She can't help but smile at as she remembered all the time she had with Yukimura. She remember how they met, how fun it was whenever they were together, how she thought he hated her, how she taught her how to trust again and how she knew the truth about that letter. 'But who would do that kind of thing? Who switched Sei's letter with the faked one?' Ryoma thought. She took a bath a changed to her uniform. She went to the classroom. She saw Yukimura there. She went to her seat.
"Good morning, Ryoma." Yukimura said with a smile. Ryoma smiled in return.
"Good morning." Ryoma told him. Ryoma sat down. "By the way, thank you for carrying me back to my room." Ryoma said to Yukimura.
"That's nothing." Yukimura answered. Unknown to them, two people were glaring at them from afar. When the class ended, they went to the music room with Ryoga and Kurumi following them. When they arrived, the other members were already there.
"What are we going to sing in the finals?" Marui asked.
"How about Future?" Niou suggested.
"I want to reveal my identity before we sing. Of course I'll also remove my nerdy get up. Aniki is here so it will be hard to keep my identity a secret." Ryoma sighed. She glared at her brother.
"What do you mean by that!" Ryoga protested. They laughed at Ryoga.
"Since you're going to go there as a girl, why don't you sing something for girls?" Yanagi suggested.
"Okay. How about, I will sing Daiji na Takarabako?" Ryoma asked. The other agreed.
"Then, it's decided." Yukimura said. When the finals came,
Gliding on the waves like a white origami yacht,
leaving everything to the calming wind, where will I go? As I become closer from place to place...
Even though you"re so close to me, I can"t touch your feelings for me.
I want to make you believe in the truth between the two of us and confirm it for me.
I can open my treasure box for you with my key, if you can become more gentle.
Your impatient feelings will change into courage
and then I can tell you I"ll love you forever.
With my cheek dyed with the morning glow, I gave you both of my hands, just like that day.
No matter what bad rumours may be out there, don"t worry about them and you can be yourself.
Just take a deep breath and melt into the blue sky.
You"ll be fine. If the two of us are together, I"m sure you should be able to do it.
I"ll give you a single key to my treasure box. Even in the times
we can"t see each other, my pearl-tinged magic will reach your heart and glow strongly.
Never forget that.
"I"m sorry" has four syllables in Japanese
all lined up, and if you can"t them you can see.
You won"t be confused after crying anymore, I promise.
I can open my treasure box for you with my key, if you can become more gentle.
Your impatient feelings will change into courage
and then I can tell you I"ll love you more and more
The crowds cheered. They won the finals. They were going to celebrate. Ryoma was about to go with them when she felt a hand grabbed her. She looked at the owner of the hand and saw Kurumi.
"Is something wrong, Kurumi?" Ryoma asked.
"I want you to come with me for a while." Kurumi said while dragging her away from the members. When she stopped, they were in one of the abandoned room inside the campus.
"What's wrong, Kurumi?" Ryoma asked even though she already has an idea but doesn't want to think that it's what's going on without a proof. Suddenly, Kurumi slapped her. She looked at Kurumi and saw her glaring at her. If looks could kill, she was already buried by now.
"How dare you try to get my brother away from me again!" Kurumi cried.
'So I was right. She was the one who did all that.' Ryoma thought sadly. "It's not like I'm taking him away from you." Ryoma said to Kurumi.
"Yes you are! You have no idea how I love my brother. You have no idea how I suffer every time he's with you, every time I see him smiling happily with you while I was watching all alone from afar while I'm hurting inside!" Kurumi started crying but she's still glaring at Ryoma. "It's better if we haven't met you. It's better if Ichi-nii never saw you. if he never met you then, I shouldn't have suffer that much. I shouldn't be suffering this much. I hate you! I hope you were never born! You should just die!" Kurumi yelled angrily. Kurumi brought out a gun and pointed it at Ryoma. She pulled the trigger.
