After a long walk,they finally arrived at the cafe named "Serene Sips". "Alrighty,here we are,at the Serene Sips Cafe-!" Eliza said excitingly. Augustine and Winnie were... confused? "Serene Sips? Never heard of that." Augustine said while tilting his head to the side. "It's a new cafe perhaps?" Winnie said. "Yep, you're right! This is the newest cafe that has been opened recently!" Eliza said.

Then,they proceed to enter the cafe and sit one of the empty seats. Soon,one of the waitress approach them. "Hi there! Welcome to Serene Sips. What would you like to order?" She said. "I would like to have some strawberry smoothie!" Eliza proceed to order. "Come oooooonnnn, order up!" She said while looking at them. "I uhh... Would like to have... Orange juice?" Augustine said. "Then I would like to have banana smoothie!" Winnie also proceed to order, though he doesn't what to order. "Geez...you guys are boring..." Eliza rolled her eyes. After they're taking their orders,the waitress walk to the counter and bring their orders to the kitchen.

They're orders arrived a few minutes ago,but Eliza keeps chatting to Augustine while sipping onto her smoothie. He was getting so fed up hearing her talking, especially Winnie. He even gives him a glare, could it be he felt... jealous? Well he might be,but he didn't want to admit it. Suddenly, Winnie finally speak. "Ah... sorry guys,I suddenly remembered I have something important to do. Perhaps we can talk with eachother again tomorrow." He said,as he proceeds to leave. "Well,that was weird...but y'know what? Let him be. You still have me!" Eliza said,as she proceed to yapping. Augustine continue to hear her talking about their old high school life,as he secretly thought to himself. "Winnie,you bastard-!" He thought to himself, probably mad because he left him all by himself with this woman who can't stop yapping.

Soon, it's already evening,and they're already going back to the college. "Well, isn't it fun to talk again?" Eliza ask. "Y-yeah...it is." Augustine said nervously. "We can't do this again if you want to!" She said. For some reason,Augustine suddenly felt something in his chest... could it be...love? No no no,it can't be. There's no way he fall in love with a girl who always yapping. But still,he can't forget about his feelings towards her. "Let's play a game,shall we?" She ask. "Really,what game are we playing?" Augustine said. "We're playing...TAG! CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!!" She said as she quickly run as fast as she could. "H-hey! That's cheating!" Augustine then proceed to chase her.

In the meantime, Winnie is at the backyard of the college, burning a photo of Eliza. "Ah...how unfortunate. Seems like you're getting comfortable around him, perhaps a little 'too' close to him". He said while watching the photo of her burning up in the barrel. "One day, I'll make sure to give you a 'painful' lesson,as a reminder that Auggustine is mine and mine only..." He said as he slowly smirked at the photo, which is already turned into an ash.
