The next morning, the two of them go to school together, and the narrator tells the students that he's not the same person as he used to be. He's a slacker and a lazy bum, and he doesn't seem to care about anyone. He asks the students if they've changed, and they tell him that they haven't. The narrator tells them that he thought they'd be able to get over their breakup sooner, but now that they're back at school, he thinks it's because of Niko. He tells the class that he smokes less and is quieter in class. He also tells them about how much he likes Niko, and wonders why they got over each other so quickly. He says that everything between them is okay, but that they need to work on it. He wants to know why he keeps coming back to the school, and why he seems to like Niko so much. He wonders why he looks at the stars all the time, and how he can't be hurt by them. He thinks they'll just stare at him and won't answer his questions, and that's the end of their relationship.
