===================
After Ethan rang the bell of her house, Suzain opened the door after some time wearing a casual yet comfortable attire, consisting of a soft, oversized sweater and a pair of leggings.
Her hair was tied back in a loose ponytail different from her usual braided pigtails, and she greeted Ethan with a warm smile.
"Thank you for returning my notebook, Ethan. Why don't you come inside?" Suzain invited him warmly, hoping to shift the focus away from the awkward atmosphere prevailing outside after their fingers brushed against each other.
"Sure," Ethan nodded as he entered her house for the second time, a sense of familiarity washing over him as he stepped across the threshold.
When he first arrived here, he was unconscious due to the fatal wound and didn't get to see much of her house because he was in a hurry.
