Both Mori Ken and Hayashi Sakura had clearly no idea what just happened and why the playful atmosphere from earlier, thanks to Ken's wickedness, that is, suddenly shifted into a very, very serious one as Ken's body stiffened and his eyes went utterly still upon mentioning a fragment of what he is going through right now.

But today is not yet the day for them to talk about it That is why… Ken was certainly doing everything that he could to totally banish it from his life for good.
