Despite that, they became fair friends until another incident soon turned them into enemies. 8 years after high school, that enemy is making a return, readily fulfilling the threat left behind before HER sudden departure five years ago. The world witnesses their fights to pull each other down while both are yet to acknowledge what that brief hailstorm of their enmity shifted into.

To solve this problem, I'm editing and changing these names to more appropriate ones. I've edited till chapter 15 and new readers who might get past chapter 15 might feel confused.
