"Is it true that you two are dating?"

Gulf had decided that today he had to go to school. Unable to rose  Mew from the bed, Gulf had left him and returned home, gotten ready and went to school. Today he only had second and third period, so it was an easy day. After school was out, he'd go straight home.

He avoided the school cafeteria for the moment. If Mew turned up, then things might have gotten messy. He might have announced their relationship to the whole world! If Gulf left tbe campus at lunchtime and then came back just before third period, he could then go straight home when he was finished and no one would have a chance to ask him anything.

Or at least, that's what he had planned to do. After second period, he was stopped as he was leaving the classroom. Suddenly, faced with the question, Gulf panicked, but he managed to retain his cool expression, so the other guy probably hadn't noticed that anything was wrong.

"...what?"

'I have to calm down!'

Gulf grinned casually. He didn't know this guy's name, but he had seen him before. Maybe it was someone from the same class.

"Is it true you're seeing Mew Suppasit?"

He said a prayer to the heavens. Mew probably told anyone who had been willing to listen. Now it didn't matter if he went to the cafeteria or not.

"What's it to you?"

Gulf's expression didn't crumble. The tone of his voice didn't change. For thr past two years, all people did was try to get information out of him. He was experienced enough to avoid their questions.

He noticed that lots of people had gathered around. Everyone wanted to know the answer.

"...nothing, I guess. You two are an odd match, so I was just a bit surprised."

"Why are we an odd match?" Gulf skillfully changed the subject. The guy shrugged.

"I guess it was Mew." The answer revealed that this guys's estimation of Mew wasn't particularly good. Gulf smiled at that.

"Mew told you?"

"No. It was being whispered all throughout the school cafeteria, and anyone who wasn't in class was talking about it."

"Well, thanks for letting me know"

Gulf gave him a smile and then waved goodbye. Then he headed towards the cafeteria.

"Hey, so are you together or not?!"

Pretending not to hear the question, Gulf kept walking on.
