"Bwahahaha, have fun you two," called out Mion as she ran back into the class. "I forgot to do something, you two go on ahead."
She ran back to her locker, and opened it. She pulled out the box for the model gun she tried to give Keiichi earlier.
Why on earth are you so afraid of this, Kei-chan? she asked herself. I want to ask him, but I'm afraid he'll freak out again, maybe, maybe even hate me for it. Maybe someone he knew got shot? Argh---

Shion looked up as she heard Rika come in.
That girl, she thought. That utterly irresponsible girl.
She left the bathroom and walked down the stairs.
"So, you're home, Rika-chama," she said, her anger barely hidden in her voice. "It seems you 'forgot' to tell me something. About you pushing Satoko. You let her get drunk, and pushed her down to the ground!? And you just left here there!?"
She started shaking uncontrollably, then breathed out and calmed her body.
"Before I get started," she said. "I want you to tell me that you're sorry. And when I'm done, you're going to tell Satoko you're sorry."
