Daily Life

PROTAGONIST SWITCH!
Ryuto Gijutsu -> Kuro Baiorin

The jingle of the morning announcement played as I sat up in bed, yawning and rubbing my eyes.

I barely slept last night. After what happened regarding Haru's suicide and the class trial, it feels like this killing game is just causing despair for us all. Along with that, we've all finally realized what a horrible person Kei is.

Well, I'm not sure all of us have. Somehow Ryuto still went to his dorm even though he knew how dangerous Kei is.

I should check up on him. I'm a bit worried something may have happened. What if Kei lured him in and attacked him? Or worse...

What if Kei killed him?

Hoping nothing bad happened, I quickly prepared myself for the day ahead. After getting ready, I made my way to Ryuto's door. I rang the doorbell but no response.

A million rings later, still nothing. Nothing at all.

What if he's still at Kei's dorm? Did they spend the night together? That would just make me more confused about their strange relationship.

I went to Kei's dorm next, ringing the doorbell. I crossed my arms and tapped my feet against the floor while I waited for someone to answer.

"Well look who it is. I thought I was a terrible disgusting person and you never wanted to see me again." a voice came from the door.

I lifted my head, seeing Kei leaning against the doorway. He looked like a mess and hadn't slept at all.

That must make two of us. But knowing him, he most likely doesn't sleep at all.

"You're wrong," I replied. "You know I never said that last part."

"But you don't deny that I'm terrible? Gotta say, that's another massive hit to my feelings."

"Why do you always mess around like this?" I asked, already having enough of his antics.

"Eh, it's entertaining. With a repetitive schedule, you have to have fun somehow." he calmly shrugged with his hands in his pockets

"I don't have time for this. Where's Ryuto?" I interrogated.

This reminds me of before Akito and Arisu's case where Ryuto was hiding out with Kei. Why does he always go to Kei...

"Why do you need to know?" he answered.

"Can you just cut to the chase and tell me? I don't want to deal with your annoying tricks again." I firmly told him, unfolding my arms.

"Are you jealous or something?"

"What?" No, I'm not! I'm just worried about my friend." I responded. "Just hurry up and tell me where he is. Now."
