Y/N's POV

-Flashback-

"Hey, you're okay right?" I ask as I stand over Ryuji.

Ryuji coughs as he holds his leg, "...fine."

"What's with the sour attitude?"

"That damn bastard Kamoshida broke my leg. How the hell am I supposed to run now?"

"Don't be like that. You're Ryuji, one of the best on the team. That broken leg is gonna be healed up in no time."

"Like hell it is. The team probably hates me now."

"Hates you? You did nothing wrong. Kamoshida was badmouthing you. He's at fault."

"Y/N. The team's gonna hate me. Kamoshida's gonna punish em' for my actions."

"What the hell are you talking about? Snap out of it," I yell, "This isn't you, where's the fun Ryuji that I know?"

"That Ryuji's gone Y/N...Kamoshida took the only thing I had away from me. That was my chance to do something with my life. And now that's effin' gone..."

"...you're just gonna give up like that? You're gonna let Kamoshida push you around like that? Fight Ryuji! Kamoshida's made this school miserable enough so stand up to him! Come on!"

"..."

"So that's how it's gonna be...huh? You worked so hard for this and just one setback throws all your hard work away?" I scoff.

Ryuji says nothing as I look at him, "...well, suit yourself Ryuji. Be like that then, I'll see you around."

-Flashback End-

"Hey! Open the door Ryuji!" I yell as I pound on his door.

After Kamoshida broke Ryuji's leg, Ryuji went into some sort of spiral of depression. Long after the incident that new transfer student, Akira Kurusu, came into the school and we became the Phantom Thieves.

We stole Kamoshida's heart and I expected Ryuji to be happy that we did...but it looks like his depression got worse somehow.

"Ryuji! Open the damn door!" I yell once again.

I sigh as I begin to walk away before I hear the door open, "Y/N-san?"

I turn to see Ryuji's mom standing in the doorway.

"O-oh. Mrs. Sakamoto. Sorry for the ruckus...I just wanted to check on Ryuji. He hasn't been coming to school lately."

"Oh, no its fine Y/N. Ryuji...isn't home at the moment."

"Oh do you know where he is? I just wanted to talk to him. See if I could cheer him up."

"He told me he was going to hang out with Akira at the arcade in Shibuya."

"Thank you Mrs. Sakamoto. And sorry for the yelling and banging again."

"It's fine Y/N. You're just worried about Ryuji."

I nod as I walk away waving, and I start heading to the train station.

As I reach the train station I hear my phone ring and I answer it.
