The next day, Yuuki gave every member of ''Game Making Club'' a gift. They were both surprised and happy at the same time. They had never thought Yuuki would give them a gift.


    Yuuki knew they would reject him if he gave them money. That was why he bought a gift for each of them.


    Yuuki didn''t stay in the school for a long time, because he received a message from Shouko. They oftenmunicated through a message.


    Shouko invited him to go to her volunteermunity. She liked to go to that ce tomunicate and help other deaf people. She had invited him several times but Yuuki didn''t have time to go there because he had to go to Dubai and prepare for his ''Game Making Tournament''. He was both excited and happy to meet her.


    [I''ll be there in 15 minutes, I also bring you some souvenirs from Dubai], Yuuki sent a message.


    [Yes, I''ll be waiting for you, I''ll also introduce you to my little sister], Yuuki smiled in response when he read her message. He really liked her kind heart and couldn''t wait to meet her as soon as possible. He had told both Utaha and Ranko that he would be going homete, and he had thought to introduce both of them to Shouko too.


    Ranko thought three of them would be friends, after all, he knew that Shouko wascking friends around her.


    Yuuki ran in a cheerful manner and made everyone curious.


    They were wondering if this young man would meet his loved one.


    Yuuki arrived at themunity ce, he walked in a happy mood until he heard someone arguing. He frowned when he saw both the main character of ''Koe no Katachi'' and Shouko''s little sister were arguing with each other.


    ''He had met her?'' Yuuki shook his head.


    Shouko had never mentioned that she had met him.


    Yuuki thought for a while, he knew that Shouko probably had the kindest heart on earth. If she said she was number 2 then no one dared to be the number 1. He knew that she probably didn''t want to make him worry since she met her bullying in the past.


    Yuuk looked at the young man, he knew his name was Shouya Ishida.


    After the incidents during the elementary school time, Ishida was being med for being the only person who bullied Shouko. Now, his life was miserable and became a loner. His meeting with Shouko was probably the one who changed him.


    Yuuki felt both sad and angry at the same time. He knew it was hard for someone to live a loner and he was angry that he was the one who made Shouko''s to lose her hearing abilitypletely.


    Yuuki looked at the little girl who looked like a little boy. He knew she was the little sister of Shokou, her name was Yuzuru Nishimiya.


    She is the younger sister of Shouko Nishimiya. She is a third-year middle school student (9th grade) but rarely attends.


    Yuzuru helps Shouko in dealing with the bullies at school as well as their mother''s forceful decisions regarding the protection of Shouko. She doesn''t have a good rtionship with her mother but bonds with her grandmother. Her hobby is taking pictures of dead animals, with the intent of showing her sister how horrible death is. The purpose is to discourage her sister from killing herself.


    Yuuki felt that Yuzuru was really great little sister for Shouko. He heard them talk about Ishida wanting to meet Shouko but Yuzuru blocked him. He knew that she did that for her sister. She was afraid her sister would remember her horrible life during elementary school.


    "She is right there, right?" Yuuki heard Ishida asked Yuzuru.


    "She is not," Yuzuru answered him.


    Ishida looked very nervous and asked her once again, "E-eto, who are you?"


    "I''m her boyfriend," Yuzuru answered him with a straight face.


    Yuuki shook his head and smiled. He decided to tease them.


    Ishida dropped his french bread, "Ah, that suck," he took the dropped bread and hurriedly said to Yuzuru, "I mean the bread, not me."


    Ishida fl.u.s.tered while looking at Yuzuru, "Eh-eh, I''ve never thought that Nishimiya would like a younger boy? Wow, that kind of unexpected."


    Yuzuru kept looking at Ishida who was fl.u.s.tering, she wanted to reprimand him until she heard a voice.


    "No, Shouko didn''t have any interest in younger boy," They were startled and turned their heads. They were surprised to see a tall and handsome young man suddenly appeared between them.


    "Wh-who are you?" Ishida was quite intimidated by the appearance of this guy.


    Yuzuru was also curious about him, she had never heard someone call Shouko with her first name beside her family. She remembered that her sister had always texted someone but she had never told her anything about it. She thought this person must know something about it. She didn''t say anything and waited for his answer.


    "Me? Well, I''m Shouko''s boyfriend," His words were like a bomb to both Ishida and Yuzuru.


    Ishida dropped his french bread again but this time he didn''t take it and still looked quite shocked hearing his words.


    Yuzuru shuddered and jumped at him, she shook his cor, "WHO ARE YOU!! TELL ME THE TRUTH!!! ARE YOU TRYING TO JOKE AROUND!! DID YOU COME TO MAKE FUN OF HER!!" She didn''t believe the handsome young man in front of her was her sister''s boyfriend.


    Yuuki was acting, he frowned at her, "What do you know? I really love her! I''m really her boyfriend!!"


    Yuzuru let go of his cor and dropped, she looked very shocked, she observed the young man in front of him and didn''t believe that he was Shouko''s boyfriend.


    Yuuki was smiling inside and decided to end this farce. He went inside the room and called Shouko.


    Yuzuru and Ishida were even more shocked when they saw the interaction between Yuuki and Shouko. Looking at both of them, they thought he was really her boyfriend.


    "So, th-that''s her boyfriend," Ishida couldn''t believe it.


    Yuzuru didn''t say anything but she was also shocked.


    They looked at both Shouko and the young man who was talking to each other happily until Shouko said something to him. He nodded in response and walked toward both of them.


    Yuzuru and Ishida were nervous when they saw both Shouko and the young man walking toward them. They didn''t know what to do, ''is it really her boyfriend?''


    Shouko happily introduced him to them, "Hos name is Youki, hee is my friend." She still wasn''t able to talk clearly but it had already improved from the past.


    "Hello, my name is Yuuki, I''m her friend," Yuuki smiled at them.


    Ishida and Yuzuru gawked their mouths and became angry at the same time, "YOU''RE TEASING US!!!"
