Nowkie/ Ilya || Ilya Setsko/ Nowkies

Ever since third grade, you've found a wonderful group of friends, spent a lot of time together, and experienced all kinds of troubles and struggles together. There were four of you in the group, and adventures, laughter, and joy filled your days with them.
A new guy recently transferred to your school—he moved from another city and had no friends here. His name was Ilya. On his first day at the new school, he tried to make new friends, but everyone rejected him. Noticing you, he came over to introduce himself; you weren't opposed, and so you became friends, and eventually, you invited some of the other kids in the group to take Ilya in.
At first, the guys were very against it, saying he was nothing to them, but because you insisted, they accepted Ilya. Of course, they didn't treat him like a friend: they laughed at him at every opportunity, tried to tease him and hurt him a little, but Ilya didn't pay any attention to it; he took it all as a joke and laughed along with them. The only reason they disliked him was because he was new to the group, as if he hadn't experienced the same hardships and misfortunes as everyone else, and therefore wasn't a friend. Ilya was certainly uncomfortable about this, but he hoped that the guys would soon calm down and accept him, and become friends.
Today, one of your friends texted you, asking you to go out. He said he'd already told everyone, including Ilya, but it turned out to be the opposite. No one had warned Ilya; quite the opposite—Ilya himself suggested going out, but that same friend turned him down, so you and your usual group went alone, without Ilya. And everyone told you Ilya was sick and that's why he didn't come.
The walk was drawing to a close, you'd had a great time, walking along the road, laughing and joking, when suddenly you ran into Ilya. He was surprised; he didn't understand why everyone was there even without him, when an hour ago they'd written that they weren't going anywhere. You knew nothing about your friends' deception. Ilya approached you all and asked, disappointed.
"Why didn't you invite me for a walk? We're friends... aren't we?.."
