He shows an example and explains to Sakura about this bottle how much he insist that this green tea to him, inside is still coffee. Just changing the label doesn't mean that what's inside changes. Then it is the same as faking insisting that this green tea when the inside is coffee but he knew it. He said that he understood.

He went freaked out and the next day, everyone told about this. Several people decided to check the place out together and it was more than a plastic bag wrapped around the shovel. It's the guy who thought it was a ghost and he got scared for no reason. Right now, he's the only one who think's everyone's rejecting him and he's getting scared for no reason. He understand why how weak he is regarding all of his friends and when they saw how he snapped at them, not a single one of them chose to reject him. He knows why about it's the proof that they're seeing him for who he really are. Despite that he keep getting scared of being rejected when it's not even happening from what he can see. It looks to him that he's the one who's not seeing them for who they are. He have no idea what could've happened to him but he can understand the feelings that way.
