A brief recap of The Dreaming Boy is a Realist episode 11

After learning that Aika was really looking for him around the campus, Sajo couldn’t hold his happiness and excitement. Sajo thanked Aika, as her advice on helping Mina actually worked.

After Kei’s arrival, Sajo told them he had been working alongside the student council members. He eventually requested Aika to help him out with the event with the inclusion of Sasaki.

The next day, after the speech from the student council president, Aika and Sasaki gave a tour of the campus to four middle school girls, and among them was Fuuka. Out of nowhere, Aika detected a disturbance as delinquents from the middle school attempted to tease Aizawa.

She intervened, firmly informing them that the students with such behavior wouldn’t cut selection at Koets.

Eventually, they apologized for their actions. Later, when Fuuka spotted Sajo, she called out his name loudly and rushed towards him, with Aika and Sasaki following suit.

After Fuuka departed, Sajo sensed Aika might be upset about the recent events. To his surprise, she invited him to hang out with her and Kei.
