RETURN MISSING

Seina is not shocked that Vino hasn't left although it is already noon because Vino frequently arrives late to school.

Seina was taken aback by the fact that they ran into one other by mistake.

Are you keeping up with me? Curious, Seina commented.

Seina said abruptly without opening his mouth, confusing Vino who was seated on his motorcycle. Seina just stated what she was going to say.

Does it imply?

Vin, don't act like that.

Vino continued to be confused by Seina's words and just stared at her.

Vino asked in astonishment, "What is it Sey?"

How did you find out that I was boarding in this area?

"Oh, you're boarding, then?"

As though Vino had just learned that Seina was genuinely residing in his boarding house, Seina furrowed her brows. not inside his home.

Seina yelled, "You... Just found out?"

Vin made a headshake.

Seina gave a direction "So? You're also new around here."

Vino screamed, "I pass here frequently, but I don't suppose we'll pass each other."

Seina has since lost her anger, and Vino had no intention of approaching her while she was upset. Vino was previously unaware that Seina was boarded and was also unaware of the location of Seina's boarding house.

Vino likes to be late, thus it seemed a sense that they would meet while Seina was also running behind schedule. Unfortunately, Vino is not the kind of person who consistently arrives on time, even though his appearance is fairly tidy. Quite unlike Elan.

Vino motioned for Seina to get on his motorcycle and stated, "Let's travel together." Seina consented without hesitation and boarded Vino's motorcycle.

***

Fortunately, Vino had been riding his motorcycle at top speed when the school gates were still open and classes hadn't yet begun, so he didn't want Seina to receive the same punishment Vino received every day for being late and running around the field.

When he reached the parking lot, Vino yelled, "Sorry, Sey."

"For?"

"I'm afraid you won't feel comfortable spending."

Seina sobbed, "It doesn't matter as long as our lives are protected, and it's not too late."

Elan was already seated in front of Seina's class as they made their way to class. I have no idea what Elan was contemplating as he patiently awaited Seina's arrival.

Elan yelled, "Sey... I've been waiting a long time."

Seina stated unequivocally, "I'm not interested in waiting."

Although Elan's countenance already appeared fairly troubled, Vino grinned at Seina's response.

He repeated, "You're not usually this late."

"Yes, Lan, something went wrong just now."

"Are you okay if I pick you up tomorrow?"

Seina was genuinely taken aback by Elan's sudden change in attitude to one of warmth.

"It's alright. Soon, the doorbell will ring," Vino interrupted their discourse.

***

Seina cast a glance at Elina, who was sitting motionless and listening intently to the lesson that Mrs. Yani was teaching. Mrs. Yani was explaining the lesson when he turned to look at her, but she had a rather vacant expression.

Elina had lost her spirit, and Seina felt bad for her.

Where are the people who are waiting for me, Na? Seina's heart yelled, "I don't want to see you like that all the time!"

Vino pushed Seina's chair as they alternated between sitting behind her. They exclusively utilize single chairs, which can only hold one person at a time.

Vino returned Seina's attention with a pleasant grin.

Seina asked, "What?"

"You won't be able to see if you don't blink while staring at Elina," he warned.

Seina shook her head and wished she could ask Elina over for reconciliation and some lighthearted banter.

***

Elina doesn't seem to be moving; just her body does. But both his heart and mind were paralyzed.

Seina carefully chose her words when she spoke to Elina to avoid upsetting her. Although Seina may think she is annoyed with Elina, Seina controls her rage and is more focused on maintaining her friendship.

Seina yelled, "Na!"

Elina said, "Yes Sey," which caught Seina off guard. Even though Elina appeared numb, she nevertheless allowed Seina to speak to her.

"I already understand everything...." Seina yelled and bowed her head.

Instead of glancing at Seina, Elina cast a forward-facing, unfocused gaze.

She said, "I know, I'm exhausted too."

"I desire... The same as before."

Deg... Now that Elan wants to be Seina, who is always there for her, Seina utters the same phrase as Elan.

'Is this how being dumped feels like?'  In her mind, Seina yelled.

Seina struggles to keep her emotions in check as Elina hangs onto her necklace. Seina is aware that if she wants to talk to Elina and dares to approach her, it means she must accept the danger. accepting to not carry her hurt so deeply.

"When only...  "  Due to Elina's actions, she yelled while toying with her necklace. It appears that Elina still has affection and hope for Elan.

Seina was astonished when Elina unexpectedly inquired about Elan "You were wounded by Elan? Alternately, are you already seeing him?"

"No Na," shook Seina's head.

Elina remained silent and didn't say much because she couldn't believe what Seina had said. Even Elina admitted that she preferred solitude despite Seina's efforts to remain by her side.

Seina yelled with a smile, "I'm waiting for you to come back as you used to be."

Since the days they experienced were so dissimilar and lonely, Seina, who is friends with only other women, is now prepared to alter Elina's perspective.

Fortunately, Seina continues to laugh along with Vino, making his life less amusing.

Even now, when Vino is with Seina, Elan frequently gives him attention.

Seina occasionally tries to clear up any misunderstandings between Elan and her because he appears to be so envious and is more passionate than usual.

Seina entered the message "Lan... Let's meet in the Medical room," into her mobile device.

Elan promptly responded to a message delivered by Seina. Even Elan called, but Seina intentionally chose not to answer the call by Elan.

"What's the matter with you? Surely you're unwell. You didn't relapse, did you, Magh?"

Elan is aware that Seina has an ulcer illness and will quickly become lightheaded and faint if she experiences a relapse.

Have you eaten yet? Elan said in response to Seina's chat before Seina could respond.

Seina purposefully stopped responding to him after that; Elan was the only one who could understand Seina. Elan, is so knowledgeable about Seina.

***

"Why You?"

Seina was already laying on the Medical Room bed when Elan entered with a worried expression on his face. Elan repeatedly took Seina's temperature, but she remained silent.

"Which one hurts?" Elan asked with a dejected expression.

Seina gestured toward her chest. Elan stopped moving and took a breath as he was selecting medications from the first aid bag.

Elan asked, "You don't want to imply I'm too good?"

Seina stared in confusion, not understanding what Elan had said.

"You typically say that," Elan continued.

Seina recalled that she would have told Elan that if she had intended to express her emotions. However, Seina has stopped speaking to Elan in that manner recently.

Elan yelled, "Those words, I miss them."

Seina's heart began to race as soon as Elan held her hand. Feelings are always right. Which heartbeats for him are known to him.
