History

In his first year during summer, Hideaki and his friends had gotten low grades and had to take supplementary classes. In the School's clubhouse they see Ryu, who they nervously talk about the fight that had occurred with him. He and the others decide to sit at the back. After Sora had realized that Ryu is beside her, Hideaki stares at her as she sits next to them, realizing that she is sitting next to someone again. By the end of the day, he and the others fail miserably and had to take the class again the next day. Three days later, he and his friends sulk as they fail the make-up test again.
