After Kaneki cleared the rumor in his class, word got out to the entire school fairly quickly and by the time lunch break came no one was staring at Kaneki nor At Shino, Yuuka and Miku.
Currently Kaneki is having lunch with Sachi, Chikao and Natsuki as usual in the rooftop.
Sachi: man seriously, I can't believe that actually happened.
Chikao: yeah, I'm honestly surprised Miku actually knew of Shino and Yuuka since they were kids.
Both Sachi and Chikao were pretending to be surprised since Natsuki didn't know that Shino, Yuuka and Miku were in fact Shita-chan, Miyu-chan and Miha-chan.
Natsuki: wait so does that mean Kaneki and Sachi knew them as well?
Kaneki & Sachi: Nope! I was honestly surprised to learn about that.
Natsuki: ehhh~
Chikao: by the way, who was that girl in you phone Kaneki? The one you used to protect Miku by claiming that she's your sister?
Sachi: Oh yeah! Who was it? When you showed it to me earlier I didn't recognized her at all!
Natsuki: are you secretly seeing someone behind our backs?
Sachi, Chikao and Natsuki were asking Kaneki an unexpected question with very serious looking faces.
Kaneki's thoughts*
(Man what is this atmosphere around them? It's really scary)
Kaneki felt afraid as he saw his friends looking at him with very serious faces, so he answered Honestly.
Kaneki: She's me.
All 3: huh?
Kaneki: I used "Kotarou" and change her looks and I took her picture.
Sachi: Hahaha! I should've expected that!
Chikao: Aww cute.
Natsuki: that second body of yours really is useful huh?
Kaneki: well since I don't really sing much anymore I guess I should use it for other things.
Sachi: but singing and dancing is it's main purpose.
Kaneki: well not really.
Sachi: hmm?
Kaneki: it's nothing. Anyways I hope my training with Miku goes smoothly later.
Natsuki: why wouldn't it go smoothly?
Kaneki: she might get targeted again, Duh~
Natsuki: I doubt she'll get targeted with you around.
Chikao: yeah, no sane person would try targeting her with you around.
Sachi: and if someone does, it's pretty much a death wish.
Kaneki: yeah, but I still can't help but worry.
All 3: don't worry we'll keep watch.
Kaneki: thanks girls.
Meanwhile*
Millie: I'm really sorry for believing the rumors Miku.
Miku: y-yeah, it's alright you don't need to apologize.
Miku was having lunch with Shino and Yuuka when Millie suddenly came to them and started apologizing to them.
Millie: But i-
Shino: it's alright, to be honest you're not really to blame here since everyone actually believed the rumors without any evidence.
Yuuka: yeah, so please raise your head.
Millie raised her head made a request.
Millie: I see, can I have lunch with you three?
Shino: No thanks.
Miku: after what happened earlier, I think we prefer to be alone right now.
Yuuka: maybe another time.
The girls declined Millie's request so she accepted it and started walking away.
Millie: oh I see, we'll see you later.
All 3: see ya.
Millie's thoughts*
(Dammit, if only he admitted to the rumors everything would have went as planned, those 3 would be hated by Ryueki and then Miku would lose her "brother" and she'll go into depression and commit suicide, why isn't anything going my way?!)
Millie was frustrated that her plan didn't work, since the previous day Kaneki had ruined her plans over and over and today he was able to clear the rumors and the names of Miku and her friends.
(At this rate I'll be disowned... I must do something!)
Being desperate she started thinking of ways she could hurt Miku once again.
2 hours later*
2 hours after lunch Class 1-C was doing W.S.S.F training again, Kaneki and Miku were running as 3 legged race partners and they were trying run faster.
Kaneki & Miku: ORAAA!
As the pair continued to run the track field, Their classmates that were watching were very impressed.
???: even though the rumors were fake, those 2 really do look like siblings huh?
???: I know right? Tachibana-san looks like she gets along with Higanbana-kun more than she does with Itadori-kun.
???: yeah, and isn't Higanbana-kunore bright than usual?
???: yeah, he looks really cool now.
Both Guys and Girls noticed that Kaneki was changing and they couldn't help but admire him.
???: even though he's violent I think he really just wants to protect the people he likes.
???: yeah, he definitely got his heart in the right place.
???: although he definitely needs to watch his actions he probably doesn't want to strangle anyone like Mil-san. Apart from that he's probably a good guy, I mean he did save us after all.
Itsuki: yeah, and we should probably learn a bit from him even if it's just a little bit.
Keiko: agreed, we were stupid enough to believe in rumors without any evidence after all.
Everyone: agreed.
Seeing how their classmates were praising and looking up to Kaneki the girls couldn't help but feel happy.
Sachi's thoughts*
(Looks like Kaneki is starting to get popular, I'm so happy but I won't let my guard down!)
Shino's thoughts*
(I'm glad, our classmates are seeing the Good side of Kaneki and not only the bad side anymore. and it looks like the other girls are starting to get interested in him... I don't want to lose him again, Miku somewhat reconcile soon so we could apologize)
Yuuka's thoughts*
(It looks like Kaneki is starting to get popular with the class, I guess the entire class and the girls in it already forgave him for what he did. Way to go my besto friendo, I'll definitely be able to walk beside you soon when i finally apologize)
Natsuki's thoughts*
(I have to admit with Kaneki's growing popularity I do feel a bit uneasiness but... Those girls are starting to get interested in Kaneki, I mean Sachi and Chikao already is both those 2 as well, and I feel the same way as well)
Chikao's thoughts*
(I'm so proud! Kaneki is starting to get popular, who would've thought my Hero would become popular?! I could cry! I want to hug him now!)
They may be happy but a 2 certain people aren't happy.
Millie's thoughts*
(This isn't good, he's starting to get popular if I don't do anything quickly I won't be able to touch him nor Miku and I'll get disowned!)
Millie was worried because she might get disowned? But why?
Ryueki's thoughts*
(Dammit, it's starting! The mob character is getting more attention and at this rate he'll become a rival character! I can't let that happen! I don't want him to ruin my story!)
Ryueki as usual was being delulu as usual thinking about his "story" but what exactly will he do?
Meanwhile*
"Are you heading to Mato High?"
Dagon: yes, I'm delivering the news to him and I think I'm going to train with him.
"Good, take care of Kaneki-chan"
Dagon: I will.
Dagon us heading for Mato high but what news does she bring?
