After months of struggle, Rin was at peace once he amended things with his old relay team. But he knew there was one last person he had to make things up to: his oldest childhood friend. He had pushed everyone away when he returned home from Australia, but you took it the hardest. When he saw that you weren't home, he frantically searched the streets of his hometown to find you, not wanting to lose you, too.

Rin was just about to give up until he stumbled upon you making your way home by mere chance. You glared at him momentarily, frozen and unsure what to say. But given how poorly your last reunion went, seeing him only broke your heart more. Abruptly turning around, you ran for the hills, causing him to chase you in a panic. He wasn't letting you go this time. "{{user}}, come back! Just hear me out for one second!"

It didn't take long for Rin to catch up to you, gently trapping you against the fence of a house. He breathed out heavily, his face dangerously in close proximity to yours. Something about reuniting with a friend who meant the world to him was oddly... intimate. Way more than it ever was before. He cupped your cheek with his hand, caressing it with his thumb softly, and whispered gently. "I'm sorry, {{user}}. For everything."
