Rya, Nieren, and Dalia were walking through the street of Ironside with Nieren leading the way. The occasional ironside soldier would wave to them as they walk through the streets.
"Oh! You see that guy there? He's been cheating on his wife with that woman back there," Nieren said as he pointed at the man standing outside of a bar.
"What!? How can you tell?" Dalia asked.
"Because I heard them when I would sneak out from my mom's place. But yeah, he almost got caught, like five times in the past month. His wife has been getting suspicious lately so she started going through his stuff." Nieren explained.
"Really? Why doesn't she just mark him and claw the other woman's face?" Dalia asked in suspense.
"Hold on! Nieren, I like hearing drama on occasion but why are you telling us? Didn't you tell your adventure friends about all this gossip?" Rya asked.
"No, they were mostly men in the Adventure Guild. And I never had any girlfriends in my life. I-I never even told anyone except for the woman who lived next door to me. We would talk while we did our chores and such." Nieren said nervously.
'Aw! She didn't have any friends besides a neighbor?' Rya thought to herself. 'She must be lonely...'
Nieren turned to look at Rya and smiled softly before continuing their walk.
'So she wants to be our friend. Sure, why not.' Rya decided as she looked to Dalia and gave her a look to follow her lead.
Dalia was surprised at first but caught her drift and pointed at Nieren to confirm what Rya was thinking.
Rya smiled and nodded. So the two of them sneak up on Nieren.
"So back to the story. So, the guy's wife—WHOA! Hey!?" Nieren yelled as the girls jumped her and hugged her around the middle.
"Hehehe, welcome to the club, Woody!" Laughed Dalia as she hug Nieren's torso.
"I'm glad you want to be friends with us, Nieren!" Rya said with a smile as she hugged Nieren's shoulders.
"Huh!? Really!?" Nieren asked confused.
"Yup! And it looks like we have another friend, Dalia!" Rya said with a smile as she hugged Nieren's arms.
"Yep! No turning back now! It's official! You're stuck with us now, Woody!!" Dalia cheered.
'Ooohhh! I-I always wanted to have girlfriends. I never knew it was this fun!' Nieren thought to herself.
"So! You were saying?" Rya said as she release Nieren from her hugs. Dalia followed suit.
"Yeah, well... So, the wife has been trying to find out if her husband is cheating on her. So, she hired someone to tail him and see where he goes. The guy she hired was one of those "detective" guys who act shady at first and then try to get information from you or threaten you."
***
Nieren continues the gossip as they made their way to the poorer part of town, where her mother's house is. They all laughed and squealed at the twists and turns of Nieren's story. Like they were teenage girls.
It took about 15 minutes before they made it to Nieren's place.
"Hahaha! Tell us another one, Woody! I can't get enough!" Dalia said excitedly.
"Oh sure! Now let me tell you about— Oh! Oh, no!" Nieren started to panic when she saw her mother's house.
"What's wrong?" Rya asked.
"My mom. She'll kill me for not coming home! I've been gone for about a week," Nieren said as she bit her lip.
"Hey, she may be mad and worried. But she will be so relieved to see you," Rya said with a smirk as she put her arm around Nieren's shoulder.
