It was 3:45 in the afternoon. Carlos was sitting on the couch, waiting for Kasuke to come back home.

A few moments later, the door slowly swung open. There revealed the green haired boy, looking more dreary than usual.

Carlos was concerned about his friend, so he walked up to him and helped him put his stuff away.

Carlos: Hey, Kasuke, is everything okay?

Kasuke: No.....I failed another test. I'm so stupid

Carlos: You're not stupid, everyone fails from time to time. I'm sure you'll do better next time

Kasuke: But what if I don't......

A small rain cloud formed above the smaller boy's head as he was about to sob.

Carlos quickly shooed away the cloud before it would rain on him. He then gave him a warm hug.

Carlos: Shh, don't cry. I know you'll be able to pass the next time

Kasuke: You really mean it?

Carlos: Of course I do ^^

Kasuke: Okay then

Kasuke gave him a weak, but genuine smile. Carlos hugged him tighter and stayed like that until he was feeling all better again.
