*Iofi Pov*

I decided at this moment I needed to go get Moona. I tried to call her, but she didn't answer immediately, so I began to walk the direction she went, only to meet halfway.

"Risu isn't in the store, it looks like, so maybe she is waiting outside," Moona said.

I shook my head. "I got a call from an unknown person. They told me Risu hit her head, so they took her to Anya's." I said

"Oh? Well, then, as long as we know she is there, we can pick her up," Moona said.

"Well, maybe not we. The person on the line before Anya began to talk to me requested that I bring anyone but you," I told her.

Moona let out an annoyed sighed instantly: "Well, I have to go. I can't leave you alone." She told me

I guess that is nice since we already checked out and don't have to do that again. "What happened again?"

"Apparently Risu slipped on something and bashed her head on a shelf, knocking herself out," I claimed.

"Suspicious," Moona said.

I didn't know what about that was suspicious. "How so?" I asked.

"How did the person on the line find her if she was knocked out, and why did they bring her to Anya's? It's too convenient, to be honest. I think this may have been a ploy of Risu's to get you alone with her," Moona said.

A ploy to get me alone with her—would she do that? I honestly have no idea if that is something she would do or not, but I guess I have to trust Moona's judgment for now.

"Hello, Moona-senpai, Iofi-senpai!" Zeta said

"Oh, what brings you here?" I asked

"I'm actually going to be expecting a visitor really soon, so I'm getting some things she would like, for example, berries," Zeta stated.

"Oh, well, we're on our way to Anya's so we can see Risu faking an injury." Moona said

"Uhh, I don't think Risu-senpai would fake an injury." Zeta claimed

"She clearly did because I scoured the entire store and I didn't see any sign of what she could have slipped on or where she hit her head," Moona stated.

"Alright then, oh, Iofi-senpai I noticed that I haven't given you my phone number, so let me give it to you," Zeta said.

"So I can call you later?" I asked

"Bingo!" Zeta whistled

She began to tell me her number, and then after she gave it, I called her just for confirmation that I had actually put in the right number on my phone.

"Well, then have fun," Zeta then said.

"Believe me, we won't..." Moona said

Zeta sighed and walked past Moona. I could tell she seemed fed up with something.

"Can I ask why you don't seem to trust Risu at all?" I asked

"It's not that I don't trust her; it's just that she usually makes things up for a narrative, and at this point, I can't tell if she is doing things for that narrative. She is a clever girl, so I assume everything she does has a bigger goal in mind," Moona said.

I don't think so. I genuinely think Risu is actually hurt, but maybe if there is a chance that she is trying to get me alone with her, I don't know how I would feel.

"We should just hurry up, get Risu, and then go home. After all, we have bags and stuff that needs to be carried home, and we also need to go back to buy you that ice cream as well," Moona stated.

"That sounds good," I said.

We got to Anya's place, and I knocked on the door. About a minute later, the small brown-haired girl answered and looked at me. "Hey, Iofi-senpai!" She said, but then she saw Moona. "Moona-senpai, hey..." She mumbled

"Hello, Anya," the moon goddess replied.

"We just want Risu and we will be on our way!" I told Anya

The Kris glared at me "you can't go in" She declared

"Huh why not?" I asked

"Weren't you told to bring anyone but Moona-senpai?" Anya asked

"Yeah, but I didn't think it was such a big deal" I mentioned

Anya sighed "It's not for me..." She replied

I didn't know what she meant by that but something was clear I'm not seeing Risu with Moona being here Anya sighed and looked up the stairs

"This is rough because I'm pretty sure she not only twister her ankle but she may also have a concussion" Anya stated

"Then let us in," Moona retorted.

Anya wouldn't budge. "I can't let you in!" She shouted

I paused. "Wait—only Moona can't go in?" I asked

Anya looked at me and nodded, "Correct."

Then that leaves me with two options. I can call Zeta and have her come here so she can go in with me, or I can go home since Moona isn't allowed inside for unknown reasons.

"Anya, can you tell me why I can't come in?" Moona asked

"You know why? Don't act like you have no idea why you aren't allowed inside!" Anya replied

Moona mumbled something that wasn't clear to me. It sounded like she was annoyed and just done with this situation and wanted to go home as soon as possible.

"Can you tell me why Moona can't go in?" I asked

"No, but if you come in alone or have someone with you, it doesn't matter who; I'm sure it can be explained to you," she said.

So I still only have two options.

Either I call Zeta and the two of us enter, or Moona has to either go home or sit outside and wait for us.

Or Moona and I just go home, and then I don't know what is going to happen with Risu if she actually is hurt

I really don't know what to do in this situation at all.
