Honkai Impact 3rd: Silence

Chapter 3 - Disbandment

Tis a beautiful twilight indeed. The sun that's still below the horizon, the birds is chirping, the air that is still cold, the changing of season, and a certain boy is jogging on the park.

He's running while wearing a black hoodie. The boy suddenly stopped on his track as he spotted a park seat. He observed it for a few seconds before he finally sits on it.

'This is the best time indeed.' The boy stays quiet, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

'Sigh... Well, time to move on.' The boy stands up. He then continues jogging along the way.

Meanwhile, on a certain building in the park.

A man, wearing a t-shirt and a black pants is talking to a hologram of a woman with a long blonde hair.

"Should I eliminate him right now, Madam Cocolia?" says the man.

"No, keep an eye on him for the time. If you spotted any weird movement whatsoever, report to me."

"Understood, ma'am." Respond the man.

The hologram then disappeared leaving the man alone. He then walks away as if nothing had happened.

***

It's the middle of the day, in front of a certain apartment, a man in a butler suit is opening the door of a limousine car, and a girl with a long dark purple hair comes out of it.

The girl is wearing casual clothes, and she is carrying a shopping bag which she carries with both of her hands.

"My lady, if you need anything else, you can call me anytime." Said the butler as he closes the door of the car.

"Thank you."

And so, the girl walks into the apartment as the man droves the car and parked it at a nearby parking spot.

This should be his room, isn't it?

C'mon Mei, don't be so nervous, this is the second time you go to a friend's house. Be like your usual self. But my heart keeps beating so hard... calm down, take a deep breath.

I take a deep breath before I continue.

I knock on the door three times. "Hello, Franks-san?"

There are a few seconds of silence before the door open, there stood Franks-san who is wearing a blue t-shirt and a short pants.

"Good morning Raiden-san. Come in, come in."

"Thank you, Franks-san." I enter his room apartment.

This is the first time I enter a boy's room, and how should I say it. It looks surprisingly clean. If I have to compared this to Rin-chan's room, well his room is cleaner by a large margin compared to her room.

"You can put the ingredients on the counter. I'll wash my hands first."

Ah, I space out. "Alright, Franks-san." I put the bag on the kitchen counter.

I observe the room once again, and a picture pique my interest. In the picture, there's 14 people. One of them is Franks-san who is wearing a business suit, and next to him is-

"Oi, earth to Raiden-san. I repeat, earth to Raiden-san."

"Ah! Forgive me!" AH! How embarrassing! To think that I would do such an embarrassing stuff in front of Franks-san, he must have hated me right now."

"Hm, you keep staring at that picture." Franks-san pointed at the picture that I stared at before.

"Sorry Franks-san. If it makes you uncomfortable then-"
