It was decided that Ritsuka and the rest of his band were going to do a live show. Haruki and Akihiko were at a bar drinking, talking about Ritsuka and Mafuyu. Since Akihiko had ridden his motorcycle into town, he asks to spend the night at Haruki’s place and Haruki thinks back on the first time they met. That was right around the time Haruki’s old band had disbanded and he had first encountered Ritsuka, who had just entered his third year of middle school...
When we first met, Akihiko seemed
 a bit more hostile than he does now.
.عندما التقينا لأول مرّة، بدا أكيهيكو أكثر عداوة ممّا هو عليه الآن
Damals, als ich ihn kennenlernte,
Al principio, Akihiko parecía
aún más hostil que ahora.
Al principio, Akihiko parecía
aún más hostil que ahora.
À l’époque où je l’ai rencontré,
Quando lo conobbi, Akihiko
Quando nos vimos pela primeira vez,
Akihiko parecia mais hostil do que hoje.
В нашу первую встречу Акихико
показался мне угрюмее, чем сейчас.
