Chapter XXIX: The Polaroid Mind, Part 2 The different members of the literature club which included Asahi and Kota, will be practicing for their performance next week. Because of this, they needed a meeting. The president of the club tells everyone to be at the auditorium at 1:00pm tomorrow. The next day, Kota arrives at the venue but nobody is there yet. He notifies Asahi about this but he doesn't seen the message. Waiting for 10 more minutes at the bleachers, the club adviser shows up. "Among the 100 members of the club, only one showed up. They should have said be on time. If this happens once more, the state of the club will be crushed", says the adviser. While waiting for the others, Kota asks for advices and tips from the adviser for good grammar. They then both shared information to one another. After an hour, Asahi shows up with two girls. The girls' names are Eri and the other is Kana. He met Eri due to the club and as for Kana, it was because of the arcade game at the mall. For 3 hours straight, the others show up every 20 minutes. Due to this, the adviser scolds them. On the other hand, Kota needs to change his InstaBox profile to blend in with the others. He asks Asahi on how to do this but even though he tries to get his attention, Asahi avoids him and talks with other people. Asahi and the others' InstaBox accounts are much different than their YourBook account and on the contrary, Kota's one is attached to YourBook. Even though he searched the web last night, he doesn't know how to do it. During their break, Asahi goes out with Eri and Kana unnoticeably while others are practicing their formation. He didn't even try to ask his other friends if they want something from the outside. 10 minutes later, they came back with three frappes. Kota on the other hand, has no refreshments although Asahi was looking at him being thirsty before they went out. In his mind, Kota thinks,"That blasted idiot! I'm going to be a desert here and he'd already seen me in this state. He still had no pity on someone else." Since most of them have no money for break and he already knows that they are trying hard, the adviser gets them drinks to have a good start on part two of the meeting. During their meeting, most of them got name-dropped because of their doing the last time they performed."I know that most of you did a good job but please put discipline yourselves in your own works. Be always on time, not later than 10 minutes. You're a model to other students in this school, y'all understand? Ok, do I make myself clear? Please bear in mind, know your position and behave", says the adviser to them. After the meeting, they all parted ways but Asahi still hangs out with Eri, Kana, and one other guy despite it is getting dark, and his home is still far away. Knowing that it's getting late already, Kota goes home. Asahi's gang then goes inside a café. As the other guy and Kana goes down to order, Asahi has something to say to Eri. With his guitar, he played a song first that they both jammed to and after that, he confessed to her. But sadly, she rejects her. Asahi accepts the rejection but when he gets home, he pulls out something sharp and shiny from his drawer. It turns out to be a menacing cutter. Another school day comes and Asahi looks down in the dumps. Gin tries to get his attention but he ignores him. He says to Kota,"Oh boy, this is really what I don't like about the guy despite what he has gone through: The Mood Swings!""Just give him some time", says Kota to him."You know, he might have gone really worse since we were like brothers according to her mother. But due to his illness, many have changed. He haven't got me the present he promised last Christmas", he adds."But at this rate, I think he's in sad-boy mode since maybe there was a relationship problem again", says Gin and Kota agrees to what he said. At lunch time, they all bring out their lunch. But as for Asahi, although he has one, doesn't want to eat. Gin notices this since for the past whole week, Asahi haven't been eating lunch."I take what you said on his dilemma. Maybe it is a chemical imbalance since he isn't eating lunch again", says Gin to Kota. Kota replies,"It also goes with the soft drinks and iced teas he' d been drinking the whole week. The worst part is, they're all black. That's not what his therapist prescribed and recommended for him to drink." Having his earphone jammed into his ears again, he still drinks the coke.
