Earlier in the morning, Yuma was walking to Border base with Murukami

Murukami: tho are you sure you and Kage really are just friends? Sience you 2 met, you guys have been getting closer to each other by the day, and Kage dosent just get along with anyone as fast as he dose with you, it would sound like a lie if you both arent
Yuma: hmm nope we really are just friends, tho it sounds interesting if me and Kageura san really did start a relationship together, we can't... there are... things that prevents it from happening...
Murukami: hm? What's that?
Yuma: sorry i can't tell you, if i do, I'll get in trouble with Commander Kido, Mr. Tachikawa, Miwa heck probably the entirety of Border, its too risky having others knowing about it now
Murukami: geez you make it sound like you gambled with the Commander, its that serious?
Yuma: yes it is... Kageura and I are both worlds apart... we're just diffrent from each other... you know how his side effect tells him that I'm diffrent bcz it dosent prick on him like how his other enemies dose while I didn't do a thing to him... thats all his side affect can do... it tells him I'm diffrent but he dosent know diffrent how... it dosent really lies in my fighting style or anything... its... more complicated than that
Murukami: Kages side effect...
Yuma: plus i don't think I have munch time to even have a relationship for myself... my goal is the expedition, and after that...
Murukami: right about that, word dose has it why Mikumo and Amatori wants to go, but why do you want to go? Did you lost someone too? Or is it simply bcz you want to?
Yuma: hmmm yeah, i want to go and its bcz i did lose someone important to me... to the Aftocraters... i want them back... but by the time i do... im not even sure i would be there to support Osamu, Chika or the others...
Murukami: Kuga are you-
Yuma: ah- sorry thats my brother, i gotta go before he cries
Murukami: . . . .

At night time in Kageura restaurant with the boys

Ema: umm Mr. Toma why don't you take Kuga over there to eat some of the Takoyaki? They taste diffrent here compare to the other places
Toma: ohhhhhh i see, c'mon Kuga your gonna love these spicy Takoyaki!
Yuma: ohh what's a Takoyaki?
Kitazoe: hm? What's that about Ema? You don't usually send people off like that
Ema: bcz tonight we need to discuss important matters
Kageura: ha?
Ema: Kage tho my one sided feelings for Chika are obvious to tell, you know it easy to know your feelings too right?
Kageura: ha?! What are you on about kid?!
Ema: I'm talking about your feelings for Yuma, tho it won't stop you from the rank wars, its stopping you from something else...
Kageura: what?! You think I have a crush on that chibi?! Are you insane?!
Murukami: its kinda obvious how you hang out with him so often, while I feel like the third wheel to cover up that its a date
Kageura: shut up!! I never went on a date with that little twerp!
Kitazoe: hes right Kage you and Yuma deffinetly have something for each other and you shouldn't deny it
Ema: take it from someone who saw others crush died by neighbours, i suggest you should take these feelings seriously before its too late for you to realise it
Murukami: right, you really should make a move before the expedition
Ema: hmm? Why before the expedition?
Murukami: the other day i had a talk with Yuma and there we're strange things being said... he talked about how Kages side effect helps him noticed that Kuga isnt like the others but it dosent tell him what makes him diffrent and that hes running out of time by the time of the expedition
Ema: what dose he mean by that?
Murukami: Idk... maybe his family wants him to move away afterwards maybe?
Kitazoe: oh than you should do it hurry Kage! Before its too late!!
Kageura: .... shut up, your all talking bullshit

Later outside

Yuma: Hanahaki... come with me, we need to talk, its important
Hanahaki: o-ok...

Kageura: . . .

Yuma took Hanahaki to a place far away from Mikado city, hidden within a mountain was a place full of trees that has pink flowers they call cherry blossom trees, the flowers on Hanahaki head resembles the ones on the trees, as they stop in that area, Yuma takes out a latter and gives it to Hanahaki

Hanahaki: brother... what is this?
Yuma: its a letter... it holds the truth about us... about how and why I even came here... and well why I won't stick around long.... once the expedition is over, i need you to give this to someone...
Hanahaki: him...? W-why me? You c-could give this to Osamu o-or Chika...
Yuma: no it wouldn't be the same, sience we're twins... he could at least feel like I'm the 1 telling him all of this... plus unlike me you can actually stay with them as long as you wish, you don't have to go to war for our nation like i did, this place is munch more happier than the 1 we know... so when that time comes, I'm counting on you to look after Osamu and Chika ok? Osamu is a total sucker for those in need so he's most likely to get in trouble for the smallest things
Hanahaki: brother...
Yuma: and once I get Replica back, look after him too, I'm sure Replicate and the others could help you with that
Hanahaki: are you s-sure.... you really want to l-leave...? all of this behind tho...?
Yuma: .... thats not my choice to make... our fathers side effect allows me to tell when others are lying... but no 1... can tell through my lies... i lied to those around me for too long now and soon I'll pay the price, so remember to keep dads ring for me, wouldn't want this to fall into the wrong hands
Hanahaki: .... your giving me too munch responsibility to bare...
Yuma: don't worry, once you get use to everything, it'll all be easy as slicing vegetables, at least thats what Ms. Konami saids
