(I came just in case, but I guess she isn't here...)
(Mafuyu...)
I couldn't reach her phone.
Something may've happened to her phone.
We're able to see what's going on over in your world by using the functionality of your phones.
So, does this mean her phone's broken?
B-But, I mean... Now?
That seems like way too big a coincidence.
(I really hope that her phone just happened to run out of battery or something...)
(But she also said that she'd let us know if she couldn't make it...)
(Which means... Something must've happened...)
Thank you for waiting.
Table for one...? Huh?
One of your friends came and went just a second ago... Are you by yourself today?
What...?
Oh, pardon me...
I always see the four of you together, so...
(Haha. I guess they remember us...)
(Wait, now's not the time for that...!)
Excuse me, but was this person wearing a Miya Girls uniform?! She usually has her hair in a ponytail!
Yes, that's her...
(She was here...!)
Th-Thank you very much!
I just missed her! We'll be back again soon!
Yes, come again anytime.
(Mafuyu was there...!)
(Then...
She probably wants to see us really badly!)
(Which means I should check that place too...!)
Huff... Huff...
(Mafuyu and I went rollerblading...
And what else...?)
(I don't see her in the strike zone corner...)
*Sigh*
I didn't realize how hard Mafuyu not being able to use her phone would make this.
(We still don't know what actually happened to her phone...)
(But what if she was about to have it taken away... It'd be like her computer all over again...)
(Which means she won't be able to use Nightcord... Or go to SEKAI...)
(In other words, she'd lose all the safe spaces where she can just be herself...)
(She won't be able to escape anywhere...!)
(That'd be...!)
<Mizuki.>
...!
MEIKO?
<Miku and KAITO were able to reach Mafuyu's phone...>
What...?!
Is she okay?! How's she feeling...?!
<Calm down...
I'll tell you what KAITO told me.>
Oh...
Her phone broke...
<Fortunately, she managed to hang onto it.>
The silver lining in a way...
Still, is it true...?
She's really gonna tell her mom how she feels...?
...
Is she gonna be okay...?
I mean, she's been so afraid of telling her mom how she really feels...
<She's apparently made her decision, so all we can do now is believe that she will...>
I know, but...
For now, I should tell Kanade and Ena that... What?! My battery only has 20% left?!
<There's nothing else you can do here.
Why don't you go home for the time being...?>
Luka and the others are gonna tell Kanade and Ena what's going on, right...?
<Yes.>
(Yeah, I agree that there's nothing for me to do here. And me becoming unreachable would only make things worse...)
Then, I'll head home and wait to hear back from Miku and KAITO...
<Yes, please do.>
Thanks for letting me know, MEIKO...
(Mafuyu...)
(I hate not being able to help you right now...)
But for now, I should head home and charge my phone...
