"I-I still don't understand any of it," Masaya looked at Ran as she cried over his misery. After the incident of Tsuki's explosion, Ran felt as if it was important to tell Masaya what had happened, so she convinced Shinichi to help her explain it to him. Since it would be dangerous to tell him too much about the organization, they decided to be as vague as possible. It was warm inside Masaya's home, with a light scent of coffee. They sat with Masaya at his brown couches, surrounded by the brown painted walls and black carpeting.

Shinichi was annoyed at the fact that he was dragged there. He didn't like Masaya as it was, so telling him about the death of his homicidal yet suicidal girlfriend didn't seem important to Shinichi. Not only that, but the couple was forced to inform Masaya of Yuki's death as well. They can't explain how Tsuki died without mentioning she killed her sister, too. "She killed her sister and her parents. She couldn't live with the guilt so she killed herself, too." Shinichi explained, pushing Ran back a little. Maybe if she wasn't in the conversation, she would stop sobbing.

"How would you know? I mean…why did she kill them in the first place?"

"The news," the young detective lied, "they mentioned everything, and Ran wanted to make sure if you were ok." Though the jerk that sat before them had stabbed Ran in the back, she had a strange connection with him. He was there when Shinichi wasn't, and now she feels she has an obligation to help him as much as possible and to be there for him when Tsuki is no longer around. It was the connection not even Shinichi felt he could fully understand, but as long as it made her happy, he allowed the communication between them both.

Masaya buried his face into his hands, "There's still so many blank spots. There's so many unanswered questions," he looked up to Shinichi, the stare was suspicious, "How are you back to normal?"

Going as far as telling Masaya that Tsuki was part of the organization and that she gave him an antidote wasn't exactly on his check list. "You're falling off topic. That's my problem, not yours," that said, Ran lightly hit Shinichi in the shoulder to signal for him to be a little more sympathetic. Shinichi shrugged, "Ok, we're sorry for your loss. We'll just be on our way then." He took Ran by the arm, and dragged her out. Her face was still wet from tears. "Ran, calm down. He wasn't even that sad."

"Or maybe he was waiting for us to leave before he showed any emotions," she hugged him tightly, knocking some air out of his lungs, "I could only imagine how I would be if you were to leave like that."

"Like what? I don't plan on murdering my parents or any siblings, if I had any. Most of all, I would never commit suicide. My life isn't that miserable," he squeezed her back, "I have everything I want."

Ran shook her head and wiped her face with her arm, "That's not what I meant. I would just lose it if you died in general."

He chuckled, "Then you don't have to worry about a thing."

"Don't you forget that you're supposed to be in hiding," she said, scolding him.

"Not you too. I get enough nagging day in and day out from Haibara. You're just paranoid."

"Speaking of her, isn't it time to start calling her by her real name? Besides, since Dr. Agasa's house burned down, where is she staying?"

"She'd murder me if I used her name in public. She's more paranoid than you are, and she's been staying with me."

Ran socked him in the side, right above his hip, "What? The both of you? Alone? In that big house?"

To sooth the sting of her punch, Shinichi rubbed his side, "Ow… I waited 17 years to finally get you to be my girlfriend. I won't do anything stupid. No need to worry."

"Well you still get all protective when I talk to Masaya."

"That's because the last time you said you 'didn't have feelings for him', you accepted his wedding proposal," Shinichi looked the other way, trying to hide his envious face.

"You're still talking about that? It was so long ago, and it doesn't even compare what you and Yuki were doing. You have some nerve to tell me about my mistakes…" she continued to yell at him as they walked past stores and restaurants.

Shinichi glanced at her mouth which was still moving; constantly nagging. He had the urge to kiss her. It would be a romantic way to change the subject. Of course, he was too nervous and embarrassed by the other pedestrians that he twitched a bit, but instead put his hand over mouth. She stopped trying to talk and looked at him. Knowing her all too well, he knew she would be angry if he simply did it for the sake to shut her up, that he made up an excuse, "Ran, I forgot my wallet at home and I don't want to be out in public too long without it, so I'm going to leave, alright?"

Ran grabbed onto his shirt right before he could run off, "Sonoko and I are going over there later. She wanted to say something to you about always leaving and taking a long time to come back."

He nodded his head to show her that he understood, and she let him go. He ran home and kicked off his shoes at the front door, putting on some slippers. He walked up the stairs and over to the room. To his surprise, Sherry walked in shortly after, wearing nothing but a towel on. Eyes widened, Shinichi's face turned light red, as he gazed at her moist, still-wet legs and neck. She slammed the door behind her and stomped to him and slapped him across the face. "That was for any perverted thoughts," she slapped him again, "and that was for leaving without a disguise. You know they can be anywhere."

" I still haven't transferred my clothes from my luggage, to my room. All my clothes are downstairs, I just put on as little as possible so I wouldn't have to refold too much."

"That's something that should have been taken care of a long time ago. You should probably get on that," she turned around and tried to twist the doorknob, "We're stuck."
