After the police left her house, Sawuta was sitting in the living room with Akio and her parents.
"I can't believe this girl would try that," said Sawako
"You two are sure you're alright?" asked Shouta.
"We're fine sir, she never had a chance to pull the knife because we acted so quickly and the officer was there," said Akio.
"Well your dad is on his way to get you, it's too dangerous to walk home now, she might not have been alone," said Shouta.
"Akio, starting tomorrow I don't want you talking to me," said Sawuta before running up stairs.
"Wait a minute," said Akio as he went to follow her.
"Hang on, she just needs some time to calm down," said Sawako as she stopped him.
"You're right, but I'm only giving her three days and then I'm going to talk to her," said Akio. Meanwhile, up in Sawako's room.
"Why is it that so many misunderstand me?" asked Sawuta as she cried into a pillow while hugging it to her chest. The next day, the two had not said even a word to each other all day at school.
"What's going on with you and Akio, Sawuta?" asked Kagomi as the two ate lunch in a secluded staircase.
"I told him not to talk with me anymore," said Sawuta
"Is this because of what happened with Sakura?" asked Kagomi.
"I don't want to risk putting him in danger again, I don't know what I would do if something were to happen to him," said Sawuta with a sad expression. Unknown to them, Ryuu had been listening in.
