"I will. Thanks, Lance-kun."
Lance-kun just grunted, turning away and starting to walk off, Revi and Ao following behind him.
Revi glanced over her shoulder and waved. "Don't let the creepy flowers get to you, Nia! And if he leaves more, well, you've got a story to tell!"
"Revi!" I called after her, but she just laughed, her voice echoing down the street.
Ao shot me a small smile, her pink hair catching the streetlight. "Take care, class rep. And… um… try not to worry too much about it."
I nodded, watching them disappear into the distance before letting out a long sigh. It was finally over. The strange feeling, the creeping sense of being followed—it was all just an innocent, albeit awkward misunderstanding. The fear had been real, but now that I knew the truth, it almost felt silly. I couldn't believe I had let myself get so worked up over this.
