A dark room in the school. Curtains closed, door locked, and a loud slam can be heard from inside.

"Ak! I told you i can explain!" Suzu yells at Naoki after being slammed to the door by him while he grips onto her collars so tight it almost ripped.

"Why you didn't tell us about this Hikaru trash you bitch!" Naoki shouts aggressively at Suzu, while Tetsu, Ryu, and Hirofumi just watch from behind Naoki.

"Relax, i was about to tell you but i was with her the whole time!" Suzu tries to defend herself from Naoki's constant attack. Naoki slams Suzu again to the Student Council President Room's door.

"You could've told me about this through text!" Naoki shouts at Suzu again. Hirofumi steps up next to Naoki without stopping Naoki at all.

"Who is this 'Hikaru' guy?" Hirofumi asks Suzu.

"He called her 'Aya-chan' and had a close, intimate 'discussion' with her." Tetsu explains instead of Suzu.

"Aya recently got close with Hikaru because they were paired to do an assignment together. It was randomized by the teacher, i didn't do it!" Suzu quickly explains in panic before Naoki attacks her again.

"And then? What was this 'discussion' they were talking about?" Hirofumi asks Suzu as he starts to get more serious.

"I don't know anything because she never told me anything about it. They probably discussed about their assignment or something, i don't know." Suzu says. But Naoki doesn't feel satisfied with that answers so he slams Suzu to the door again, more aggressive this time.

"Didn't we pay you to get to know everything that happened to her, you dumb bitch?! You should've asked her! There's no way they were talking about their assignment looking THAT happy!" Naoki slams Suzu again to the door, makes her yelps and winces in pain since her head and back keep being hit to the door by Naoki.

"Ak! Stop! That hurts! I'm sorry! I'll do better!" Suzu begs Naoki as she grabs his hands on her collars, in attempt to stop his aggressive slams to the door.

Hirofumi quickly stops Naoki and gets in between Naoki and Suzu as he glares at Suzu with darkened eyes. "Tell me his full name." Hirofumi says.

"It's Hikaru Yoshizawa..." Suzu answers with a defeated look on her face. Naoki huffs in fury while still glaring at Suzu.

"You're not done yet. You still have many things to do." Naoki says sternly to Suzu.

While Suzu, Hirofumi, Tetsu, Naoki, and Ryu have an intense conversation in the Student Council President's room, Aya still busy talking with Hikaru on Hikaru's desk. Hikaru soon being approached by another student.

"Hikaru Yoshizawa. Follow me. You're being summoned." The student says to Hikaru very politely, almost look like scared by what's about to happen.

Hikaru stops his conversation with Aya and speaks to her calmly. "Sorry, Aya-chan. We'll talk again later."

"No worries, Hikaru. Maybe after school?"

"Okay!" Hikaru nods at Aya cheerfully and then follows the student to somewhere in the school.

Once they arrived, Hikaru looks confused at the sight of the Student Council President's room. Hikaru looks at the student. "I'm being summoned here? Not the teacher's room?"

The student quickly nods and leaves Hikaru alone in a hurry, or in fear.

Hikaru slowly grabs the door knob and turns it to open it. Being greeted by a dark room with curtains closed and no lights around on. "Excuse me?"

"Come on in, Hikaru Yoshizawa." A voice can be heard from a silhouette of a chair in front of Hikaru. Hikaru then walks closer and now can see that he's being welcomed by Hirofumi and three of his friends.
