* * *

Matt hasn’t spoken a single word to me since this morning. Since I told him what I saw. Anytime I tried to speak to him, he acted like I wasn’t even there. Talking to him just left me with more unanswered questions. I still have the manga in my bag, but fat lot of good that does without anyone who can help me decipher it. Matt’s ignoring me and I can’t even ask Satomi about her offer to teach me to read. Seems like she took the day off, can’t really blame her considering what nearly happened last night.

As soon as final bell rings and cleaning time starts, I grab a broom, and ignoring my assigned group, I pretend sweep my way towards where Matt is busy stacking chairs on tables. “Why have you been ignoring me all day?” I hiss as soon as I’m close to him.

He shakes his head, not once looking at me. “I’ve been thinking.”

“Well, I want you to talk to me.” I stop my sweeping—even though it’s mostly pretend—and stare directly at him. “Or at the least I want some kind of answer for what I saw on that platform.”

“I can’t give you one.” He heaves another chair onto a table before turning to face me. “All I know is that Yuki didn’t kill herself, despite what everyone is saying. She didn’t commit suicide. She was my friend. She was helping me try to understand the manga.”

“Just give me one answer. Was it you?”

“No.” He gives me the one hard and deathly serious word, his gaze burning into mine. “I wasn’t even there that day. I should have been. I blame myself for not being there for her. I could have stopped it from happening. I should have seen it coming. I could have saved her. She was the first person who ever believed me about the manga. I should have been there.”

Matt just goes back to stacking chairs, more forcibly than necessary, without another word.

“Well then, how do we go about stopping this fox person? Especially if they’re walking around impersonating you?”

“I think I need to tell you everything I know.”

I cock an eyebrow and look at him.

“Not now.”

“When?”

“Tonight. After club meetings. I need some time to think. I’ll explain everything then. Maybe we can stop this before anything else can happen.”

“I’ve got Juku today.” I look at the small spark of hope burning in his eyes, and know I can’t just say no. “But, I guess I can get my cousin to cover for me.”

“Are you sure?”

I nod.

“Good. I’ll get everything ready and meet you outside school straight afterwards then.” A weak, but determined smile fills his face as he turns away and finishes his classroom job.
