“Shio-” he muttered, breaking the girl’s momentum and setting herself away from him. She blinked, confused at first, only to scream internally in her mind while clutching her head.
“What’s wrong?”
“N-Nothing. I-I’m getting b-back!” she yelled, unintentionally running away from him.
Konatsu stood there in silence. He still had his hand outstretched, his eyes casted on them. He felt funny because he can feel it inside him, the sudden fast paced heartbeats that echoed in his ears, the edgy butterflies that fluttered on his stomach and the evident heavy tinge on his cheeks.
After seeing the same reaction from her, he actually felt relieved.However, he felt stupid on believing that and worst yet, betting on that. He thought that after her engagement party, this delusion would leave him be. However, it turns out that fate was just playing with him again.
“Please…” he exhaled sharply. “Don’t ever let it happen.”
He found himself laughing at the thought, his laughter echoing on the halls.

“AHHHHHHHHH!”Shiori yelled, prompting herself down her table, not realizing that she has company. The other person besides her looked up from his book good-naturedly, though his eyebrow automatically rose in question.
“What is troubling you, Shiori?” he asked, putting his book down.
The Begleiter raised her head in surprise. “Ah, M-major U-Urwin!It’s nothing, please don’t mind me. Sorry I disturbed you.”
"Oh, but your face doesn’t look like it agrees with you.”
Shiori swallowed hard, looking away and slapping herself a little. Am I that obvious?
"Thank you for your concern but I’m fine really.”
"This is about Konatsu again, if I'm not mistaken?"
"Ah!"
"See?"
Shiori covered her mouth and hit her head on the table, making a loud thud. "I'm really hopeless," she whined, acting as if she was a kid with her candy stolen.
Major Urwin sat down her table and leaned against the mahogany, it groaned against his weight. "Hmm... I'm planning on inviting you to today's banquet, yet it looks like you won't make it."
"Eh?"
"I told you about my engagement right? I'm only letting this month end and I will marry her soon."
"Eh?"
Major Urwin laughed at the girl's reaction then gently ruffled her hair. "Well, she wants to see you, Shiori. Besides you're about to pass the second part of your exam."
"But you just told me that I won't be able to come."
"Hmm..." the bespectacled male placed his chin on his palm. "Then, there's nothing we could do about that unless-" he paused then turned to her, a smile on his face.
"You should invite Konatsu over."

"Kona-chan~!"
Said teen dodged the sudden attack of his mentor, the latter gracefully crashing on the floor with a loud thud that almost hurt his chin. Konatsu raised an eyebrow, feeling nostalgia washing over him. The person who always does this to him had stopped along with her usual torture tactics every time they happen to meet on the halls.
