"cyno?"

what in the world was he doing in those bushes? you thought with your eyebrows slightly furrowed, then seeing a flashlight in his hand plus he was dripping wet.

"what the heck are you doing in the bushes─"

his ears turned red, cheeks slightly burned as he rushed underneath the tree, standing right next to you. but he did make sure to keep a bit of distance between the two of you since he was aware you weren't that fond of him.

"uh─" he blushed, looking away as the flashlight was still on.

"i was looking for my friend's phone but they left me and...i got lost." he shamefully admitted. scratching the back of his head while not looking straight into your eyes.

"i see..." you lean against the tree, watching the rain heavily falling down from the sky.

it was quiet, the sound of the rain hitting against the leaves of the trees and coming in contact with the ground was the only thing you could hear. unfazed by cyno's presence as you patiently waited for scaramouche to return. but even so, you couldn't ignore how the tips of your ears turned red from his sudden appearance.

cyno didn't look at you, even if he wanted to. he couldn't, he needed to respect your decision. knowing that you didn't see him as a friend anymore due to his stupid actions.

he was so confused lately. did he have feelings for you, or for nilou? or for both? he wasn't sure. and so, he had asked his good friend tighnari for help.

he could still remember tighnari's words like it was yesterday, actually it was yesterday but whatever.
