It was an unfortunate thing that Rin acted so distant towards Nagisa and him after his return from Australia. What’s worse was that they still didn’t see him much, so there weren’t many opportunities to “fix” it.

Of course, it didn’t help that Rin went to another school—and a boarding school at that, but Makoto still wanted to make an effort. After all, he still thought of Rin as a friend. So occasionally, on evenings like tonight, Makoto would shoot him a text as his way of checking in on him.
