Did he make a girl cry in his last life?

I think she might have been confessing to him while he friend zoned her?

Seems like Haruka lead a rather lonely and isolated life, which is all too common for many of the Japanese salary man. No friends, avoids confrontation, goes with the flow, and keeps himself isolated. Most likely a defensive mechanism to protect himself and prevent himself from getting hurt. This leads to him fearing close, personal connections with others. Even though is already a middle aged man, he has never truly emotionally or socially matured because of this isolation.

Although, he seemed to mellow out with his new party members. He still keeps a wall around them, albiet unconsciously. Al being the honest and straightforward type is especially sensitive to these kinds of barriers. Haruka is scared when he overhears Al's thoughts and seems to recall a previous experience where he had hurt a girl back in school.
