Sensei does as advised and stares at Miku as she dissociates. He repeatedly rubs up against the door in his way while doing so, pondering over why he even bothers trying to help Miku when all he does is make things worse. Miku, meanwhile, mumbles to herself. She repeatedly tells herself that something isn't real. The narration shifts to someone else and they tell Sensei of a silverfish which hides itself in the discarded bottles left on the floor of Miku's room, hoping to be buried inside her digestive tract. They assure him that it will not succeed before admitting that the reason he's hearing this at all is because they're bad at everything, including symbolism. The narration shifts again, becoming more and more distorted before falling apart completely. | Sensei does as advised and stares at Miku as she dissociates.

In the recesses of Miku's mind, figments of her past run amok, chasing soccer balls and kicking them into a net that blankets a world that exists for tonight alone. While she might claim such things have always been the norm, the truth couldn't be further away. Once upon a time, she'd sleep in the comforting home of her comforting family. She'd eat microwave dinners and nestle herself between the legs of her parents, falling asleep only to repeat the same tomorrow.

But while Miku retreats to this world to protect herself, the recesses of her mind aren't any safer – Nowhere she can turn is safe. And now, with nothing left to do, and no other ideas on how to fix herself, she surrenders herself to both "light" and "dark". They flood her mind and merge into a dull gray which itself turns everything dull and monotonous. Deep within, good memories still lie, but the muddled state of her mind keeps her as the same person she's been made into – And that "person" has something inside them, struggling to slither out. That "something" is confusion and the desire to understand. But life is full of too many difficult things to grasp, such as [[Every Day I Grow Some More|dust particles]], or how quickly everything you love can be taken away. | But while Miku retreats to this world to protect herself, the recesses of her mind aren't any safer – Nowhere she can turn is safe.

Miku Affection
This Event takes place in the following locations:
Sensei attempts to knock on the door to Miku's room, accidentally doing so too hard and "shattering the fabric of reality" in the process. He's fine with this, though, as waiting for the world to fix itself gives him the time to reflect. During said reflection, he accidentally stumbles upon world-renowned painter, Salvador Dalí. The painter gives Sensei instructions on how to "see the sunset", supposedly so Sensei can yell at it. Once he takes note of these steps, he asks Dalí if he knows where Miku is – He tells him to see the world through her eyes first, starting with staring through the wall.
