When Kisa begins spending more time with Tohru, a young jealous boy, Hiro Sohma, meets Tohru in person. He immediately belittles the older girl and takes Tohru's notebook, which contains the photo of Kyoko. With the help of Kyo, Momiji, and Kisa, Hiro gives back Tohru's notebook. As punishment, Tohru hugs the boy, which turns him into a sheep. Despite his dislike and jealously of Tohru, Hiro still brings Kisa to Shigure's house to watch an anime show. Hiro then demands Tohru to take him and Kisa out somewhere. At the park, it is revealed that some time prior, Hiro had admitted his love for Kisa to Akito, who later physically harmed the young girl resulting in her hospitalization. Hearing of this, Hiro subsequently began to ignore Kisa to prevent any further harm coming to her. Kisa's bullying occurred soon after, and Hiro was unable to help after ignoring her so suddenly. Thus Hiro became angry at himself and took that anger out on Tohru, who was able to help Kisa recover. Tohru, however, comforts him that it takes courage to admit that he is still a kid but he should be able to protect Kisa in the future. (Source: Wikipedia)
