Honey nods and says "Thank you Haruhi. I really appreciate it."
Kaoru seeing how quiet Hikaru is walks up to him placing his hand on his twin's shoulder saying "Why are you being so quiet Hikaru? If it was what I said back there in the club room I'm sorry.
Hikaru "No. I mean thanks but that's not it. And it's probably not anything I can't handle myself currently. But, a young buddy of mine, if his situation escalates much further I'm not sure how long I'll be able to handle it."
Kaoru "What kind of situation is this buddy of yours in? And you say young? How young?"
Hikaru "Well his father, I mean every time my friend's report card comes out, his father has specific expectations of the boys in his family..given my buddy is still in elementary school, considering you wanted to know how young he is, and he's 7 by the way, it's only academically that my young buddy has to excel at for now..but the brother that he has to surpass is in this high school..and my buddy's brother is taking high level advanced classes for a few courses..despite this though his brother still does well..that fact leaving my young buddy under a good bit of pressure..he's only had a few C's after entering school, but for the most part he's been making B's and A's in his grades..He's only made high honor roll, meaning all A's once..But getting honor roll, A's and B's, is still pretty good in my opinion, but his father still threatens him because he doesn't get the kind of grades his older brother does..I'm not sure if it's the fact that my young friends older brother does get all A's or what..but anyway yeah..my young buddy's father probably has already gone so far as to hit him, because of the fact that his brother is making higher grades and my buddy can't surpass him.."
Kaoru "Wow..Sounds just like Kyoya's father.."
Hikaru "Yeah I thought that too when my younger buddy explained his situation to me..when I got curious seeing as how report cards coming out pretty much sent chills down his spine..And he could very well be Kyoya's kid brother given the way the kid described his father..which is another reason I'm so protective of him..I mean we've seen the way Kyoya's father hit him to the floor that one time in front of all of us..And if he's doing worse than that to Adara..Just because Kyoya's grades are better than his.." Hikaru shutters for a second as the thought crosses his mind and then he turns to the wall putting on hand against it and his other hand to his head
