Riko then tried to help Aiko to the sofa nearby. She then ran into the toilet, to get a towel, and soaked it with water. She then took the first aid kit found in the cupboard. She have repeated this routine for so many, during the days before Aiko and Riko came to Tokyo, in Singapore. Riko sighed as she gathered all the necessary things to help Aiko. "Aiko, you're really one idiot," Riko mumbled. 

Soaking the towel inside the hot water, she then squeezed the water out, and folded the towel into a rectangle, before placing it onto Aiko's forehead. She then cleaned up Aiko's injury on the wrist, and sticked a band-aid on it for her. How much more does Saito wants to wrecked Aiko? Riko's eyes stared at the photoframe in her living room. She still can't believe Aiko still have that photo with her. 

She took it, and snorted at the picture. Saito- this jerk, he could really act. Maybe he should just scram off back to Singapore, and maybe if Riko could, she would have already banned Saito from entering Japan. Riko cursed and sweared as she felt herself so helpless. She look towards Aiko, who was lying on the sofa. Riko shaked her head, Aiko, please get back to your usual self. 

Riko have stayed overnight at Aiko's house. Aiko did not wake up until that evening. Her eyes suddenly twitched, as she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Riko lying her head on the side. She then raised up her right wrist, and realized there was a band-aid on her injury. Aiko got up, and smiled. She patted Riko's head, "Thank you, Riko-chan," 

"Ahh, Aiko..-chan," Riko woke up, as she rubbed her eyes. "Ah! You're awake!" 

Aiko smiled, and nodded her head. "YOU! Why are you so harsh! It's not worth it cutting yourself for that bastard!" 

Aiko's eyes widened. "Eh? Cut myself?" 

"Didn't you cut yourself!? Your wrist was bleeding!" Riko shouted, as she held onto Aiko's hand and showed her. Aiko etched her eyebrows, before everything came clear.

"Riko! Do you think I'm so stupid, to cut myself?" Aiko stopped, as gently slapped Riko on the head. "I was sick! So i tried to find some medicines in my room, and then, the vase on the table drop, and i scratched my hand!" Aiko shaked her head. "Riko, I did do that before, long ago, but I've not been cutting myself for ages already!"

Riko sticked out her tongue. "Sorry Aiko," then she pouted. Aiko then shaked her head, and let out a huge sigh. But yet, she was glad that Riko have always been by her side to support her. 

The next day, Aiko and Riko went to school together. It was lucky that Riko is almost the same size as her, thus her uniform could easily fit into Riko. "Riko-chan, are you ok with Nakajima? Why..Why are you not meeting him?" 

"Eh..? I.." Riko mumbled, trying to shove off the question. But yet, with the way Aiko was looking at her, there was no way that she could escape from her question. Riko then sighed, and holding onto her bag, she mumbled, "We broke up," 

"EH!?!!?" Riko quieted Aiko down, as she tried to explain to Aiko everything, from the time she and Yuto started dating, till current. "That jerk!" Aiko shouted, clenching her fist. Riko then patted Aiko's back."Chill down Aiko-chan! It's okay! I'm fine already," 

Aiko then held onto Riko's hand. "Sorry Riko, for not being there," Riko then smiled, "It's okay, you're having things hard yourself as well," 

When Riko pushed open the classroom door, she was greeted by a face.

Nakajima Yuto. 

"Ah.. Riko-chan," Yuto called out. Riko then smile, "Yuto-kun! Good morning!"  Aiko then pushed Riko to the side, and it now made Aiko facing Yuto. "Good morning, Sugihara-san," When Yuto greeted, Chinen have immediately turned to face the classroom door. Aiko snorted, and dragged Riko to their seat. Yuto then turned, and observe the both girls. 

"Yu-kun, what's wrong?" Yamada came towards him, while poking his cheeks. Yuto then held onto Yamada's finger, "Nothing," 

"Hunph. Yu-kun? That's so gross," Aiko groaned, as she glared at the pair. Riko have hurriedly covered her mouth, and mouthed a 'Sorry' to Yuto. "Riko! Why did you even apologise to him!?" Aiko shouted to Riko, "He's not worth that!"" By then, Aiko's shouting have become so loud, that everybody in the class started to turn and look at her. Riko then bended down in embarrassment.

"Okay class, please settle down!" Everybody then scrumbled back into their seat. The form teacher take their attendance, when after that, he had made an announcement. 

"Class, there's a great news today! Although it's the middle of the term, we're gladly to accept a new transfer student," the form teacher clapped his hands, to signal for the transfer student to enter. The door slid open, and Riko and Aiko did not pay attention, as they was in their little conversation. 

"Please introduce yourself," the teacher instructed. 

"Nice to meet you," the voice that spoke was light, gentle, sweet. The voice have also caught the both girls attention. They turned their vision to the front of the class. Their eyes widened, as the new transfer student continue to introduce himself. 

"My name is Saito Hiroyuki, please guide me along,"
