As Kanae said, after the dance, majority of the students went home. It was already noon, so many of them went home as fast as they could, especially those who walked home. No one was stupid enough to wait until the sky was dark to get home.
"I can't stay in school for long," Misae looked towards the sky with disappointment. "My father says that the streets are going to be more dangerous next month, so I'm not allowed to stay outside for long."
Alice nodded her head. "My father also says the same."
"Be careful on your way home," Kanae smiled towards the two of them and waved her hand.
"Don't you need to go home too?" Jay already grabbed his bag, and he was ready to go home when he saw that Kanae was still busy cleaning up the leftover cookies and drinks.
Kanae shook her head. "I'm not working today, so it's fine even if I go home late."
