❖ Chapter II ❖ Gloomy ❖

{Y/N}'s POV

At some point, after a long wait, it became too colorful to me and I decided to look inside the room, where the two went in earlier.

"I'm sorry for interrupting boys, but what in the world does it ... take ..." I started to complain as I peeked into the room, but what I then saw, made me speechless.

Half-Rimz and Gloves were scattered around the room, both on the floor. It looked like they were searching after the most important thing which exists.

"Now don't tell me that you guys were here all the time, while searching after the money and still didn't find it" I sighed and stared at the two who stood up quickly because they knew that they were in a pretty stupid pose.

Half-Rimz adjusted his glasses and pushed me out of the room.

"Hmmm, nah, nah, don't be rude, we just wanted to help you, no?" he asked towards Gloves, who in the meantime kept searching, but briefly gave a thumbs up for him.

"This is the room from Clip-Ons, I know that's a nasty action on our part, but that's not the first time we've done it, you know, she has money, like sand on the sea. She won't notice it at all if we steal a few coins for a fresh weapon" he whispered, making sure that the girl on the couch didn't hear it.

With success, nothing bad happened and already from that point on, I knew that he trusted me, which surprised me very much, that this happened so fast. I mean, theoretically I could go straight to her and say everything to her, but because he was so nice at the beginning, I couldn't help but kept this action for myself, that it'll stay as a secret.

"But why don't you find it if you've already been here several times?" I asked in surprise, and he knew an answer to that directly.

"She likes to hide it on different places. I only know that if that helps ... but on which spot the money now exactly is, no idea" Half-Rimz muttered and watched his leader, who gave up and leaned on Clip-Ons' bed. He shook his head and pulled off his gloves for a moment. "Nowhere ..." he admitted and Half-Rimz began to think deeply.

For a few minutes he did that, and even if he felt like the super genius inkling here, not even he had an idea now.

"Never mind that. I give ..." he wanted to say with his eyes closed, but as he opened them again and wanted to go back into the living room, there was Clip-Ons in front of him out of nowhere.

"Hi, what are you guys doing in my room?" she asked confused but still seemed to be happy and suspected nothing bad.

"We ... uhm, we ... we have no idea, sorry" he sweated in front of her but she already knew what was going on.

"Are you trying to steal money again? Oh come on ... why don't you just dare to ask me, as nice as you really are?" she grumbled, urging Gloves out of her room so she could collect some coins for me in peace, that we won't see, where she hid her money. As we were all outdoors from her room, she closed the door and started searching after the money. While she was doing that, Half-Rimz had an information for me.

"Oh, by the way, our last member isn't here right now, she's on her own with some friends, but that's not so bad that you'd just die, right?" he asked with a smile, and Gloves nodded, with exactly the same expression as Half-Rimz.

"I think so, I mean, I don't know her and I haven't seen her yet ..." I answered uncertainly and just then, as I completed the sentence, the door opened again and Clip-Ons gave Half-Rimz enough money so he won't be upset about the amount. Afterwards she headed past by us disappointed away and didn't say another single word after that.
