“Why did you take so long?”

“Well, there were some strange guys outside.”

“Strange guys?”

“It’s nothing.”

Tana and Eve seemed a bit puzzled by the conversation, but there was no need for them to understand. I had no intention of involving them in resolving the violence situation.

“They look delicious, though.”

“Really? Eve’s cooking skills are amazing!”

The delicious smell filled the air, and even though it was a makeshift celebration, hunger overtook us, and we began to eat.

“It’s delicious.”

“Really tasty.”

“Hehe.”

I realized why Eve had that “master chef” vibe about her. I wasn’t sure which lucky guy was going to take her away, but I envied him.

“So, Charlie got expelled in the end?”

“Yeah, traces of potion-making were found in his room. He even collected Eve’s hair. Ew, it’s creepy. What did he want to do with it?”

“Did he want to transform into Eve?”

“Ew!”

“I really dislike it.”

Charlie Kraush was not only expelled but also under investigation for sexual harassment, and Eve had given a statement about it.

“I’m glad you got through it though.”

“Thanks to you two.”

Eve smiled at me and Tana. In this somewhat awkward atmosphere, Tana changed the subject.

“By the way, why do you keep wearing glasses? Last time you dressed up, the guys went crazy.”

“Well, it’s difficult for me to dress up.”

“I can teach you. It’s not that hard.”

“Hmm.”
Eve glanced at me, seeming to hope I would say something. I wasn’t sure what answer she wanted, so I spoke honestly.

“Dressing up is something you do when you feel like it’s necessary. I like how I am now; it feels like it suits Eve. Do you feel like you’re being your true self?”

“…Yeah.”

Was that the right answer? Eve smiled and nodded her head, and Tana, while disappointed, still respected Eve’s opinion.

As we chatted about various things, a knock on the door interrupted us. It must have been too loud outside, so I stood up and warned them.

“Get on the bed and hide, so you can’t be seen.”

“Why? Other guys would envy you if they saw.”

“Just hide.”

Sometimes, I couldn’t tell if Tana was confident or just clueless, but either way, Eve followed her, and they got on the bed, pressing against the wall.

I didn’t want strange rumors spreading about Eve and Tana, not just myself.

‘Who could it be? Ares?’

The only person who would come to my room was Ares, and I opened the door to find my childhood friend, Rin, standing there with her long black hair.

“Rin?”

Just by coming to the boys’ floor, Rin drew everyone’s attention. Some guys were already grumbling, and Rin herself looked awkward, scratching the back of her head.

“Hey, um, are you okay?”

“Huh?”

“Those weird seniors were looking for you. I was worried you might have been hurt.”

“Oh! Where are those seniors?”

I was going to take a look at her hand right now, but Rin waved her hand away.. It seemed like the awkward atmosphere was affecting Rin as well.

“They left already. I guess it wasn’t that important.”

“But they were making such a fuss.”

They had been talking about their seniority and bothering everyone, but they seemed to have left in the end.

“But there’s something delicious here. I can smell it…”

Rin glanced inside briefly, noticing the delicious aroma. Her expression suddenly stiffened as he looked at the food.

“It smells like a woman?”

“Huh?”

Rin raised her eyebrows in surprise as she noticed the food inside. she had been smiling kindly just moments ago, but now her mouth slowly turned downward.

Rin gently pushed my chest, and as she did, she entered the room and locked the door. Outside, there was some commotion from the students who had been watching, but Rin didn’t seem to care.

“Move aside.”

“Now, wait a minute. This is a man’s room, if you come in like this, there will be strange rumors.”

“We are childhood friends, practically family. We don’t need to care about other people’s opinions.”

“But still…”

I placed my hands on both walls to block Rin, but she skillfully pushed my hands away, entering the room. She glanced at the two girls crouching on my bed.

“Uh, hi?”

“Hello.”

“On the bed…?”

“Just wait! Don’t get the wrong idea! We were just having a party, and someone came, so they climbed up there to hide!”

“…?”

Rin stared at us, as if trying to verify the truth of my words. I didn’t step back and continued to look at her. After taking a deep breath and exhaling, Rin nodded.

“Okay, I understand. But wasn’t it a bit reckless to let two girls into your room like this?”

“Well, you have a point.”

It was an accurate remark, so I didn’t argue. Instead, I let Eve and Tana explain.

“We were the ones who suggested it first! We wanted to keep it small, so we thought we could just do it in the room.”

“Yeah. Actually, we were planning to do it in our room, but there are so many rumors about the other girls that we thought it would be better to come here.”

“Your room?”

That seemed to irk Rin, and her eyes trembled for a moment, but she regained her smile after a deep breath and asked.

“If it’s okay, can I join too?”

“Um, well…”

“No.”

Eve seemed to be considering it, but Tana firmly drew the line.

“We’re celebrating Daniel’s reinstatement. We don’t want outsiders here.”

“I’m Daniel’s childhood friend. I have the right to celebrate too.”

“What did you even do? We planned and executed missions with him.”

“Me too…!”

Rin seemed like she wanted to say something, but she clenched her fists and remained silent. While she had asked my sister for help on my behalf, in reality, it hadn’t been much help.

“Right? So…”

Bang, bang, bang.

“Daniel? Rin!”

“Ares?”

Suddenly, Ares appeared, sweating profusely and looking bewildered. He had come because he heard Rin entered my room, just in case.

“Ri-Rin was in your room, so… I was worried…”
“Yep, she’s here. But she’ll probably leave soon.”

My words seemed to shock Rin. She stared at me with her mouth slightly agape but I tried to ignore her gaze.

However, the girl who had just been on my side had betrayed me.

“Ares? Come in! We’re having a party right now, do you want to join us?.”

“A party? What kind of party?”

“A reinstatement party for Daniel!”

“Oh, but I haven’t done anything…”

“You’re Daniel’s childhood friend! Just come in!”

“Isn’t that really a crazy bitch?”

Dumbfounded by Tana’s sudden change in attitude, denying everything she had said earlier, I pointedly asked Eve. She also looked at Tana with an exasperated expression.

“Still, let’s celebrate together. It’s a good thing, and they’re Daniel’s friends.”

“Hah.”

Ares scratched the back of his head, sighed, and nodded. Now that I had some experience dealing with Rin and could endure the awkwardness, I could manage.

“Not for too long. Let’s stay for an hour or so.”

I leaned back on the bed and took a seat. Tana and Eve immediately occupied the seats on either side of me. Tana naturally took the seat next to Ares, which seemed to be her intention.

Rin looked at Eve in confusion, but she didn’t seem willing to give up her seat, so Rin reluctantly took a seat with an awkward expression.

Afterward, things went relatively smoothly without the atmosphere getting too awkward. I had expected things to become strange with Rin and Ares joining, but since both of them enjoyed socializing and had many friends, they quickly joined in the lively chatter.

I noticed occasional subtle competitions emphasizing their roles as childhood friends, but I chose to ignore them.

“Right? Isn’t this funny?”

“Yeah…”

I looked at Tana with a slightly troubled expression, poking her side. She seemed to have intended to tease Ares but ended up sticking close to me instead.

‘Maybe she feels overwhelmed now that it’s a different situation?’

That could be the case.

With Ares right there, she might have felt a bit restrained and preferred to rely on me.

After an hour passed, I exercised my privilege as the host and ended the party.

“Tana, Eve, I’m sorry, but could you leave first? I need to talk to them.”

“Hmm?”

“Okay, we understand.”
Tana and Eve left my room, leaving the two of them behind, waiting for me to continue. I let out a sigh and began speaking.

“It seems like we need to reevaluate our relationship.”

In today’s terms, you could say I was cutting ties.

***

Tana, back in her own room, let out a long sigh.

“I can’t believe Ares came.”

She hadn’t expected Rin’s arrival, but Ares showing up had been a complete surprise.

“He’s really handsome.”

Tana giggled and playfully kicked her bed. Starting with his soft blond hair, his straight nose, and fair skin, Ares was like a prince from a fairy tale. His presence in the same room felt like living inside a painting.

After being rejected for a date, she had felt somewhat awkward around him. But now, that feeling was gone.

“Heh, he’s amazing.”

Tana slowly closed her eyes, and as she drifted into sleep, a particular man appeared in her dreams.

The boy who had rescued her from a rooftop tormentor.

The same black-haired youth who had skillfully driven away May’s gang.

“He’s really something,” she thought before falling into a peaceful slumber.

Good, cut ties with them both, so useless they are.

Rin did some stuff though, so I will not a little bit slide, but forcing herself in was not cool

She’s a crazy bitch if you really think about it a little. She may think she “helped” by calling his sister, but a side of her probably thought Daniel will cling to her for help on his own since he has no one other than her and Ares, so it was a perfect opportunity to make Daniel feel indebt to her. Also, the reason why she’s acting like this now is there’s competition, she feels threatened. She’s probably delusional as well with how she thinks there’s nothing wrong with what she was doing, or wasn’t doing, to Daniel. Maybe she thinks no matter what happens, Daniel won’t leabe her or lose affection for her, because since childhood that’s how it’s always been, and SHOULD be.
