He approached Logan and asked, "Why do you seem so upset today?" Logan, looking towards Ronin, replied, "Yes, I'm very sad today because my love of life, Sia, didn't come to college today."

Ronin observed him from a distance, trying to understand his state of mind, and attempted to communicate with him.Logan noticed Ronin and placed the flower on the bench, smiling as he said, "When did you arrive?
