Her brother Megumi prayed for relief, and her parents eventually transferred her to a new high school. There, she befriended Tohru and Arisa, who treated her kindly despite rumors. Two years later, questions about the past triggered Saki’s powers, causing her to flee. Tohru and Arisa pursued her, offering comfort and advice that helped solidify their bond.
