"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out"

I was confused at Mikan.

She is spacing out quite often now.

Sometimes at Jin-Jin's class, resulting him angry and she answers his questions.

Sometimes at lunchtime or after school.

I was worried at her.

I tried asking her, but she shrugs it off and change the topic quickly.

Today, I was determined to have the answer out from her mouth.

I go to class and found her talking to Imai. Imai noticed my stare at her and points at me.

Mikan looks around and found me. She smiled and I signaled for her to come here.

She said goodbye I presume to Imai and walk to my place

"What's wrong?"

"I want to talk for a second. In private"

"Sure" She said.

We walk to the Sakura tree at the backyard and sit right below it.

"So?"

"Why are you spacing out?"

"I'm not spa--"

"Stop Lying Mikan. I know your spacing out"

She sighed.

"Fine. You remember what the principal said right? That students will be divided by their talents?"

"Yes?"

"I'm worried, You and Hotaru... Won't be able to.. Communicate with other students in your own class" She said.

I smiled at her. She is always worried about others than herself.

"It's okay. We have our own way of communicating. Don't worry about us. Worry about yourself" I said while cupping her face with my hands.

She smile at me and hugs me.

I hugged her back. I nuzzle to her neck. Hiding my red face.
