Sumire quickly returned to the room and pushed him towards the chair. "Jun-kun, you should relax too. It seems to be raining outside, so you can't return right now."
"I shall but you-" Jun looked towards her. "-are you feeling alright? You look slightly pale."
"It's just a bit of nausea. I shall be alright. This is a good opportunity; why don't we chat for a bit? I want to ask you since when were you getting bullied?"
Jun didn't reply immediately. He knew they would eventually have to have this conversation, but now that they have it, he doesn't know what to say.
"I think I understand what you were thinking. You probably didn't want to trouble me. I would have done the same. But, Jun-kun, do you not remember what you promised me after the previous bullying incident?"
"I remember."
"Back then, you told me, the next time something happens, you will tell me immediately no matter what. Even if you do not tell me, you must inform somebody."
