The answer for the question

The 2nd week of school has started, Monday morning, Eito wakes up and hears the raindrops hitting their roof, then he walks close to the window and take a view on the outside.

"So it's rainy day... I better take medicines to avoid getting sick" he coughs three times then he started he's morning routine.

Later on, Toshiaki feel strange about Eito just by looking at him, it's like he is on a different vibe. Then Toshiaki throws a rolled paper on Eito's face.

"What the?"

Eito looks at Toshiaki because he knows that he is the only one who'll do that to him, then he saw Toshiaki making hand signs to open the paper.

"This guy tch... what kind of dumb question is this, of course I'm okay" writes something on the paper and throws it to Toshiaki.

"Well well... of course he'll say he's fine, but he's really acting strange"

Emiko stares at Eito like she wants to say something to him but, she's shy since there are too many people to see it.

*School bell rings*

"Okay class, lunch time"

As usual, Emiko eats her food at classroom, and Toshiaki and Eito eats at the cafeteria. The pair seats on their table and eat their lunch.

"Yo Eito"

"What is it?"

"Something's odd on you, you look so worn off pal"

"Don't mind me I'm fine, I just hate rainy days"

Toshiaki just continue to eat his lunch but, he keeps worrying about his friend. Later on, the class continues and after a few hours, the class has been dismissed.

*School bell rings*

"Good day class... and also don't forget your assignments, got that?"

"Yes ma'am" everyone responds.

Just like every end of school day, Eito buys ice cream for his sister.

"I'm back!"

"Welcome back brother"

Riku immediately grabs the ice cream on Eito's hand.

"Eh? I just buy you the same flavor and brand, how come you still want it? *sigh*"

Eito walks to his room and change his clothes, then sat on the bed to have some rest, then he suddenly hears something.

*knock knock knock*

"Hmm? That sound came from our main door, I guess that's a mailman"

*chatter*

Riku climbs upstairs like she has something to say on Eito.

"Brother! Someone is searching for you"

"Eh? Really, well did he tell his name?

"She's a girl and she said her name is Emiko"

"What?!"

Eito put on his much more decent clothes before he came down, then he saw Emiko standing at the door holding an umbrella.

"Oh, Sugihara, never expect you to come here *chuckles*"

"I asked your friend what is your address then I just follow what he said"

"Damn that guy, I can imagine him laughing because of a wrong idea *sigh*... well uhm, come in, you might get wet outside*

Emiko comes in and she sat on a sofa. Eito was so quiet, because he was thinking about how can he entertain Emiko, while Riku was making something to eat.

"It feels weird, even though we have already talk a few times but, I need to ask her why did she come here"

Eito offers Emiko a glass of water to have a good cue for asking something.

"Water?"

"Thanks..."

"Uhm... may I know why you visit me here?"

Emiko looks at Eito like she was annoyed by what he said.

"I just thought that having someone I could tell what I feel, can take some of the weight in my heart... and also, I'm here to tell you more"

"Oh really? Well, sure... besides we're friends *panicky chuckles*"

Emiko takes a sip on a glass of water, preparing herself to tell something.

*Emiko flashback memories*

One day when I was asked to buy a new apron and gloves for my aunt, I was walking in the mall then I saw my dad buying looking for a shoe to buy, I try to approach him in order I can ask something but someone just approach him, a girl with red hair. She has a same height as me and maybe we have a same age, but then I really wonder who is that girl, it seems like they are really close, my dad holds her hand, then suddenly, a woman that had a same hair color of the girl approach my dad and kiss him on a cheek like my mom always do to us. Just by looking at it, I could say that they are happy family, and there I was, just standing and there's nothing I could do but continue to buy for my aunt. As I get older, I knew that my dad had a new family, and those two are his wife and child.

"So why you have a phone call with your dad last week?"

"My dad rarely visits me in the house with the girl and ask me to come with him, but I refuse because all of the lies he tells me back then, and my anger is what makes me resist."

"Man, she really hates her dad... oh well, I guess I will do the same though."

Riku finished with her cooking and she serves each plate of them.

"The food is ready... here it is brother and brother's friend Emiko"

"Oh thanks, Sugihara please enjoy the meal *smiles*"

Emiko takes a bite of the food and she is surprised and turns she blushed like she turn into more feminine.

"T-this food... what you call it?"

"*laughs* It's my specialty! It's called Riku's Okonomiyaki!

Emiko takes two more bites and she triggered a flashback of her mother.

"This food... this is my mom's specialty *sobs*"

Emiko eats the whole Okonomiyaki on her plate and she feels so delighted that she brings a tears of joy. After she finished eating, she hugs Riku so tight and she smiles like a beautiful angel.

"Thank you, Riku *hugs even more tighter*"

Eito was shocked by what he have seen on Emiko's face.

"Sugihara, the first time I met you, I accidentally bumped on you then you kick me and never apologize, after that, you just ask me to be your friend outta nowhere, then I help you to have someone to talk to but... I ask myself why do I bother to help her, she's being rude at me at first but, I still can't find the question, but now I think I found it... she always have cold and angry face, and I ask myself that what will she look like when she smiles... the answer is because she had a smile like a beautiful maiden and it's so delighting to see. After all, her name Emiko means smiling or beautiful... I think that perfectly suits her"

Eito coughs three times and he stands up like he was about to say something.

"Okay then, I will buy some ice cream for you two, later then"

Eito exits the door to buy them ice cream.

"She seems happy, and Riku also, they get along well though, Riku is a really special girl, making Sugihara smile like that is so hard for me... oh well, that's my sister for ya'll *smiles*"
