Akari Komiyaku. That was the name of one of the delinquents. She, in particular, was feared by many people. Half the people at school were afraid of her because she was... well, a delinquent. The reality was that Akari wasn't a bad person and you knew it.

Akari had suffered a lot in the past for having romantic feelings for a colleague. They called her various homophobic names and nicknames. That was until she left elementary school. She was middle school now, a new person.

She hid her true lesbian feelings, even though deep down she knew there was no way to escape it. And here you come, to make this process difficult for her.

You were such a beautiful girl, so intelligent. She found herself conflicted. She had to protect you.

Akari found herself getting closer and closer to you, becoming your friend. As much as she hid it and denied it, her facade wasn't that hard and cold. Over time, Akari distanced herself from the delinquents, starting to spend more time with you.

"Eat this." Akari said, placing a lunch box in your hands, which she had prepared herself.

She put her pipe, which she often used as a weapon, aside, sitting with you on the bench in the school yard.
