Yuji and Akane went grocery shopping together, excitedly browsing the aisles for fresh vegetables, meat, and ingredients for their meals. They laughed and joked, playfully teasing each other about their food preferences.
Back at the School Dorm room, Akane started to prepare their dinner, while Yuji watched her in admiration. He couldn't believe how skilled and passionate she was about cooking. When the meal was ready, they sat down to eat, and Yuji was blown away by how delicious it tasted. Akane blushed at his compliment, feeling happy to see him enjoying her food.
After dinner, they moved to the sofa, and Yuji started to open up to Akane. He asked her why she was so close to him, given that he only had one friend, Takumi. Akane explained that she felt a connection with Yuji and wanted to be friends with him. She also shared that she had experienced bullying in the past and understood what it felt like to be alone.
Yuji was surprised and touched by Akane's honesty, and he finally opened up about his own experiences with bullying. He felt ashamed and embarrassed, but Akane hugged him tightly and encouraged him to let out his emotions. She told him that it was okay to cry and that she was there for him.
Yuji felt a wave of relief wash over him, and he cried in Akane's arms. He felt safe and comforted, and he realized how lucky he was to have found a friend like Akane. When he was done crying, Akane offered to let him sleep in her lap. Yuji hesitated at first, but Akane's persistence won him over, and he thanked her for everything.
As Yuji slept on her lap, Akane gently stroked his hair, feeling a sense of contentment and happiness. She had found a new friend in Yuji, and she knew that their bond would only grow stronger over time. She smiled to herself and drifted off to sleep, feeling grateful for this moment of connection and comfort.
