"by the way, you should get your girlfriend closer to you. she might get attacked with some students. someone earlier almost slapped her."

"what? who?" renjun's eyebrows furrowed in wonder.

"how should i suppose to know? i don't study here," henry replied with a retort of sharp and incisive manner.

"you're right," he muttered quietly. later on, as he waited for henry to decide on going back home, renjun's phone rang. this caused him to grab it from his pocket promptly after hearing it ring.

as his eyes landed on (y/n)'s contact, "(y/nickname)💖" that was displayed on his screen. he immediately answered it with a confused look.

"(y/n)?"

"uh... hey, i need your help," (y/n)'s voice was calm, but too clear and loud for her soft speaking voice. renjun then assumed she was in a small spaced room.

"what's wrong? where are you?" he stood up from his seat instantly as henry looked at him after getting startled by his cousin.

"it's hard to explain, but i got locked in the janitor's room near our room."

"what? why?" renjun's face became more confused, and a worry look was written in his face.

"i'm coming," he uttered before the call had ended. he excused himself to head out first as he heard henry click his tongue.

"i told you," henry said.

renjun walked right back to the complex, his mind filled with thoughts about the students he saw near the janitor's room.

without any effort on roaming around the building, his eyes spotted the two familiar students. he approached them who were casually walking through the hallway.

"hey," he smiled at them as one of the girls jolted in surprise. "where did you two come from?" in a friendly tone, he asked while slightly bending his upper body forward as he walked with them.

"we— uhh, came from the teacher's room," the other replied.

"hmm," renjun hummed as he stood up straight with his hands tucked inside his pockets. "the faculty lounge is located in that direction though?" his index finger pointed at a hallway they passed by in his left.

"no, we actually came from the clinic," the girl beside renjun who had an unnatural blonde hair, retorted which caused him to drop his smile.

"you two don't even know where you came from?" he asked, their pace slowed. "isn't that absurd?"

"w-why are you asking anyway?" the blonde asked, seemingly having her tone rising intentionally.

without any hesitation, renjun decided to talk straightforwardly to them with his intention of approaching the two girls. "you two were the ones who locked up (y/n) in that room, right?" his eyes went cold like his shoulders did. this made the two falter with thir responses.
