I was walking down the hallway towards the classroom.

It had been a week since I moved into the dormitory. My life had been going on normally. No, there was something unusual...

"Hey hey, what class do you have today?" A girl's curious voice rang out.

'Haaaa...'. I sighed inwardly as I looked towards the voice.

A girl with a petite figure and short orange hair was staring at me with curious eyes.

Yeah, it was Livy.

A few days ago, I had bumped into her on my way to class. After all, our classes were next door, so the chance of us meeting was very high.

Since then, she had stuck to me whenever she saw me. Her positive energy and aura were hard for me to ignore. I always had to follow her lead. It was just that her appearance was too eye-catching, so when I was with Livy, I felt a little uncomfortable.

'What did I do that she paid so much attention to me...'

"I have math class this morning. I have a practical class in the Virtual Reality Area in the afternoon." I smiled reluctantly and answered her.

Hearing my answer, she was a little surprised. Then Livy's eyes lit up as she replied.

"What a coincidence, I also have a practical class in the Virtual Reality Zone this afternoon! My class teacher said that my class will be practicing with another class today. Is it possible that we will have the same class?"

Hearing Livy's words, my steps stopped for a moment. My facial muscles stiffened a little.

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." I waved my hand in response and continued walking.

How could I forget? Today was the day that Class 1-A and Class 1-B were paired together for a practical class in the Virtual Reality Area. It was also the first time the main characters had come into contact with each other, forming a bond between them.

Such an important event, and I had only just remembered it now. How bad could my memory be?

"We'll probably be studying together. My homeroom teacher also said that we'll be studying together with another class in this afternoon's class." I replied to Livy's previous question.

"Great! So we can study together this afternoon. I've always regretted not being in the same class as you." She said while putting on a regretful expression.

Seeing her expression made me laugh a little. Livy was truly a little sun. It was hard to feel sad when she was around.

"Hey, you're laughing at me again! What's so funny!"

Seeing me laugh, Livy puffed her cheeks and glared at me. She looked like an angry little squirrel.

'So cute...'. A relaxed smile appeared on my face.

"Hey! Stop laughing!"

"Um, no more laughing. I'm going, it's time for class. See you this afternoon!". I quickly ran away, leaving an angry Livy staring at me.

As soon as Danz left, Livy returned to her usual appearance. The angry expression from before disappeared without a trace. But there was still a smile on her mouth. A very genuine smile.

She had been approaching and chatting with Danz for a few days now. She always felt comfortable talking to him. She felt like she was talking to an older brother.
