I almost lost my composure over the bitch's trash level insults but I quickly reminded myself that I am currently ignoring her and so, breaking out of this cycle would spell my defeat.

Henceforth, I decided to keep on doing that as I further descended down the stairs to the outside.

"Kuzan, you're not coming?"

Kuzan looked indecisive as he looked towards Kanawari and in my direction, which meant that he was thinking of staying with Kanawari.

Therefore, I took immediate action regarding this.

"I see. Later."

"Yeah, later, Aniki."

Just a few steps away from crossing with her. Her over usage of perfume became obvious as soon as I crossed her alongside Kanawari.

Not only that but her grin would not fall off her face regardless of how apathetic I may seem in the physical surface. Whether intentional or not, she didn't rebook back at me.

That could be read as a sign that she is aware of my ignoring act.

Then, I hope she enjoys it.

She should try stabbing herself with a pioneer if she loves to stab others with pioneers that much.

As I left the external block, I took a deep breath and proceeded to inhale the fresh afternoon air.

However, I couldn't exactly relax for more than five seconds as my phone rang.

"..."

Looking at my phone's screen, I noticed a familiar name. Hyunda's past words offered me, at the moment, the necessary will to take this call without totally forcing myself to do it.

"Hey."

"Hey... Do you wanna meet up...?"

She sounds pretty negative. What exactly is going through her mind? I need to know.

"Actually, yeah. Do you have a place in mind?"

At a time like this, it's best if I just let her take the lead and not go complete commander mode for no reason.

"Anywhere you like."

"Alright, wanna meet up at that abandoned classroom?"

"Oh, okay. Sure. See you then."

"See you. Love you."

After delivering those romantic words to Yulia, I terminated the call.

Otherwise, it would've been awkward to continue. Yulia's non-persisting behavior is sometimes mysterious to me. There are times where she will persist and others where she won't.

I need to know why that's the case.

Eventually...

"Oh, you got here first."

Naturally, considering how my walking pace is faster than hers, I got here faster without a problem.

I was in the back of the classroom mindlessly taking my mind off reality yet that sort of action was put to an end as soon as the stunning figure of Yulia came into my eyes.

However, despite saying those words of formality, Yulia was looking down, expressing a certain degree of emotional negativity.

As soon as she took her seat next to me, I asked her the following question.

"What's wrong? What happened? You look down."

It's not exactly natural for a supposed girlfriend to look down whenever she's in the presence of her boyfriend. Realistically, you are supposed to trade happy moments and cute laughs together, for example.

Yet none of that came from her, which means something happened.

"Ah... You want to know, Daniel?"

"Yes? I mean, should I not? You're looking down, so I have to look out for you. Also, sorry for not taking your calls earlier."

More importantly, I wish to know what's on her mind. I need to release her of her current worries so Yulia feels secure.

"That's fine. I've been annoying, haven't I? I think that I captured something essential. Being too clingy and naggy is surprisingly a boring trait, isn't it?"

I'm not sure. I've never tried to think about whether or not it's boring for a girl to be clingy all over the guy she loves.

If I were to ask a desperate person, then the desperate person would answer with a yes, but if I were to ask a person with minimal social standards, then it's the equivalent of having a stalker.

Then again, it all changes when the relationship involves that of a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship.

"Not exactly. I don't think that you are clingy at all, Yulia. However, what made you realize that?"

Though truthfully speaking, Yulia's worries can be comprehensible. I'm just not the correct person for this, simply because I lack the ability to care for the majority of the part.

"Really...? Er, well... For me to explain the whole thing in detail I need to ask you something..."

"Hm?"

"What do you think about Hyunda? What is he to you? A friend? A classmate? Or just someone who you randomly socialize?"

"Hyunda?"

That's an interesting question. I think of him as someone who can actually understand my natural intentions and doesn't judge me constantly for what I am.

As a matter of fact, I would go as far as saying that he might be the only one who can comprehend me on a mutual level.

But...

"A classmate."

I'm not sure if he considers me as a friend or not. Our talks are usually either completely serious or purely naturally relaxed. One thing I know for sure about our talks is that I always learn something new from him.

This is why I enjoy our conversations more out of all the conversations I have with the other people I usually talk to.

"I see... That's a relief..."

Why is it a relief though?

I wanted to ask that straight away but I allowed Yulia to continue.

"Listen, he's not someone who you should be around. He's an evil lying manipulator who enjoys the sadness and torment of others. Even Arkalee included..."

Okay, why did this suddenly become about Arkalee? Not that I didn't know what Yulia was saying about Hyunda being a manipulator, it's just useless to attempt to even comprehend his actions because no matter how much I try I won't reach a plausible conclusion.

He's similar to Kawahara in this sense.

"What about her?"

Unlike her previous sad posture, Yulia gained a more refined attitude as soon as I said that, meaning that her upcoming words would most likely connect with her sad attitude.

"You see, we had a fight a while ago! I tried to convince Arkalee, along with Sana, that Hyunda was a bad influence for her! You know how she's over the feels with Hyunda, right!?"

"Yeah."

Anyone that has witnessed how she behaves around him should know that this is a fact. However, my biggest concern is that she might end up doing something quite desperate in order for his attention.

Or maybe that's just my intuition alarming me for no reason whatsoever.

"Like, Arkalee refuses to listen to reason! I'm telling her to stop being so clingy with him and the worst part about this is that Arkalee thinks I'm doing this for Hyunda's attention! I don't know what to do about this because it pains me to see a good friend like Arkalee falls in the hands of an evil bastard like him..."

...?

Where did this hatred for Hyunda come from?

"Yulia, what do you have against Hyunda exactly? You said that he was an evil lying manipulator but what exactly made you think that's the case?"

Sure, I know that this is true.

However, how do you know this, Yulia?

"O-Oh... Did I say that? Never mind that, haha..."

"What? No, tell me, really. I'm worried about you."

No, I just want to actually know why that's the case. She might be suspecting something unnecessary and that would be problematic for the overall progression of Hyunda's plan.

"Well... Okay... I think that he's hanging out with Arkalee on purpose. Like, think about it! There's no conceivable reason for Hyunda to hang out with Arkalee, honestly! So, I think that he's manipulating her, and thus, I wish to prevent that from happening. Grrr."

Did she just let out a small roar?

Sorta cute.

"Do you have some sort of strategy?"

Sincerely, I would just oppose her idea of helping Arkalee out because Arkalee might possibly be beyond help at this point, but it's best to go along with Yulia's idea.

"That's what I wanted to discuss with you. What do you think I should do...?"

Now that she asks me that, I thought about something that made sense.

Why does Hyunda hang out with Arkalee that much anyways? Wasn't he with Ikkiri all the time previously?

Shit...

The more I think about it, the more Kawahara's theory starts to click. As expected of a bipolar genius.

"Before going into that, I'm curious to know why you view Arkalee as a friend, Yulia."

Sana was intentionally set up just so Yulia could spend more time with her, but I didn't plan for Yulia and Arkalee to become friends.

So, I naturally don't know what exactly happened between them.

"I consider her as a friend because I view her as someone that is going through a situation that requires help and she might feel like no one understands her intentions when I really do. And I want to help her out, because that's what friends do, right?"

"Well, yes."

Supposedly, at least.

I'm not an expert in the concept of friendship nor its interpretation forms.

Nevertheless, Yulia's correct in the saying that a friend will always help out another one. The thing is...

"Does Arkalee consider you as a friend?"

"Probably not. But that doesn't matter. Because I'm not doing this for the sake of a reward. I really want to help her out!"

Pretty selfless. Would I be able to do something as selfless as her?

Probably not, because that would imply my engagement in a meaningless set of ordeals and actions. And if there is no conceivable reason behind it, then what the hell is the point of it?

'Friends' just like to feel needed. It's a jerk-off circle at the end of it all. If there isn't a mutual compensation then the others will quickly discard you and not consider you as a friend because you are not going according to the usual norm.

"I understand. So, you want to help Arkalee out but you don't know how? We should start investigating something then. What made Arkalee fall for Hyunda? Do you know?"

I might be slightly curious about this. Anything that revolves around Hyunda is oddly fun to me.

Plus, he never explained his relationship with Arkalee; he always dodges the question.

"Arkalee never explained that concretely. She just loves him apparently... Can't you ask Hyunda that?"

I'll be completely honest with her.

"It wouldn't work because Hyunda would just dodge the question. But, we can assume something for sure."

"That..."

"Hyunda and Arkalee are hiding something together."

Partially, outside of my curiosity, I'm also showing that I'm willing to go along with Yulia's idea which seems to be easing her mind.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

Her progressive smile throughout this conversation should be a noticeable sign that she's liking where we are going with this.

"Okay! Yes, I so agree with this! But, what can we do to gather more information if they both won't tell us?"

"Wait, hold on, Yulia. Haven't you noticed how Hyunda has stopped hanging out with Ikkiri, like totally?"

They just don't talk anymore. I have no clue what happened, but they don't say a single word to each other anymore.

What the hell happened?

"Ah, that's reasonable though. Who would want to hang out with Ikkiri? She's an attention whore. Gosh, I hate her."

That's under the assumption that Ikkiri still did that past event all by herself.

"But that doesn't explain why Hyunda just started to hang out with Arkalee way more than Ikkiri. Actually, when did this happen exactly? Do you know, Yulia?"

"No... I don't know... Arkalee just started to show parasitic symptoms for Hyunda. I'm worried that she might do something unnecessary. Daniel, don't underestimate what a girl can do for her loved one, alright?"

I'm not that worried.

Because I can literally just fist the bitch until she drops dead. No chivalry from me will ever come.

Genuinely speaking at least.

"Sure. But if this is the case, then have you tried to reason with her that maybe Hyunda is not the one for her?"

"I did exactly that and she didn't budge! She even argued that she's aware of how evil he is and that she doesn't mind, at all. And just between us... She said something really worrying... Like, oh my god..."

"What did she say?"

Yulia's expression just took a 180 angle rotation suddenly. It's as if the words she wanted to say were stuck on her throat.

Before finally saying them though, she shook her head for some reason.

"...That she wanted his babies..."

"What the hell..."

Did Arkalee seriously say that? I take all my previous assumptions back. She isn't probably obsessed with him.

If she actually said that and Yulia isn't lying then this is serious.

"No, wait. Why did Arkalee say that...?"

"U-Um..."

Strange. Why did Yulia just turn around? She seemed reluctant to say her words as she didn't show any signs of finishing her incomplete sentence.

"What is it?"

"O-Oh, nothing! So, you know, um, Arkalee said that because I asked her how much she loved Hyunda and she replied with that! Naturally, since I was worried about her condition, I had to get that out of the way!"

Yulia just spoke so fast that it's as if she's trying to hide something. Well, what matters is that Arkalee said that with a clear reason behind it.

"I see, but, his babies? Isn't that a little bit too extreme?"

"I think so too, Daniel. What a fast development or... Maybe there has been an ongoing development that we are not aware of? Think about it. Maybe that's the case. Maybe things happened behind the scenes way too much. Things that those two would only know of. For example, our current scenario could be labeled as a scenario that we are only aware of; as no one else knows about this."

I see where she's going with this.

"Even if that's the case, we have no way of knowing what exactly happened. Sure, it would help if we knew that ahead of time, but if they are hiding it, then that might just mean that they want to. Hold on. If they are both hiding this, then doesn't this mean that Hyunda is purposely hiding it from everyone else too? Doesn't this mean that Hyunda might actually love Arkalee?"

Though, I don't see that being the case.

Hyunda's never been the type of person who would engage in a nonsensical relationship out of romantic interest with someone else.

Unless... I can only picture it as something that I would do, because I do consider myself similar to him, honestly.

Therefore, if he were to gain something from being enveloped with Arkalee, then maybe it would make sense. However, otherwise, I just can't believe it.

"Now that you mention it... That might just be the case... Huh...? But wait, then why did he...? What...? That doesn't make any sense..."

It wasn't my intention but Yulia started to ramble onto herself while spewing question after question with an extremely puzzled expression.

But, why is Yulia puzzled? Didn't my assumption clear her doubts? Why is it creating more doubts in the process?

"Yulia, what's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing really... It's just... How do I say this...? What you just said makes total sense to me. However, if Hyunda actually loves Arkalee then why doesn't he act as he loves her?"

This is the part that Yulia should be generally confused about. To her, it's probably nonsensical for someone to hold the correct romantic intentions while not maintaining any sentiments in the first place.

Only Hyunda and I can understand what's actually going on here. As a matter of fact, I think I figured it out.

For reasons unknown, Arkalee is useful to you, isn't she? Yet how? What did you see in her?

"Maybe he's bad at expressing his feelings? I can relate to him in that sense."

This is a lie. Although, I have never tried to express my feelings for something on a drastic degree, genuinely speaking. Nor do I think that there will ever be a day where I will witness my self-image falling into such a pitiful state.

"I think you two are quite different if you ask me..."

"Why is that the case?"

Yulia's currently going against my idea so I would very much like to know why.

"No offense to Hyunda, but he shouldn't be here. This is a program that's made for those that actually WANT to atone for their actions and conduct their lives happily. Redemption, so to say. However, when I take Hyunda into consideration, I don't feel like he's here for that reason. And that's what bothers me. Because, if he isn't here for that reason then why is he here anyways!? That is so insulting! But... You are different, aren't you? You are doing the program because you feel guilt for your actions, right? You seek redemption, just like me, don't you?"

"Yes."

"Ah, I almost forgot something... I think that he lies constantly too. Based on our previous conversations, if you take a notice, he will only talk to anyone if there is some sort of interest involved! So, he's an opportunist! Furthermore, he---"

"Yulia, it's fine. I get it. You think he's problematic and you needed to rant. It's all good. However, what do you want to achieve more here? Arkalee's well-being or knowing Hyunda's intentions?"

I could just tell her that it's useless to attempt to decipher him but I don't think she would be pleased with that sort of answer.

The only reason I would say that though would be because I already tried it and came out empty-handed.

To the point where I'm starting to think that maybe his actions are intentionally orchestrated on the premise of not being truthfully understood by anyone except the orchestrator himself; Hyunda.

"Arkalee's well-being, of course. That's why, for her to be back to her old usual stable self, Hyunda just... Needs to stop interfering..."

Isn't it the other way around? Arkalee's the one that bothers to be with Hyunda all the damn time.

I'm pretty sure Yulia got the wrong image; however I'll give her the benefit of the doubt.

"Alright. So, you want to put Hyunda in a position where he doesn't interfere that much with Arkalee?"

This question should initially bring a lot of controversy due to how questionable its execution can be, but I'll see what Yulia has to say about it.

"That's what I want, but that's just impossible. Hyunda's interfering in an indirect way. It's as if he's there intentionally but not in ways that you can just directly tell, which makes it so hard to call him out for. There's also the part where Arkalee will just get hostile if Hyunda is questioned. Gaaaaah! I just can't tell what happened!"

She's freaking out, but I guess it's normal? She's worried about her friend Arkalee who she believes is being misguided due to her obvious crush on Hyunda and she's further blaming Hyunda for this.

It's not as if Yulia's worries aren't understandable.

"We don't need to prioritize what happened because we will never know. It all depends on Hyunda and Arkalee and realistically speaking, they might just never tell us. So, let's abandon that option, alright?"

"Alright, that's true. Any other alternatives?"

"Let me think for a bit."

Other alternatives....? 

I'm not really thinking too deeply into this because I don't actually have to. I'm just pretending to care yet let's suppose that this was actually for the sake of uncovering a bit of Hyunda's personality.

First of all, why Arkalee of all people? The logic that she's his table partner is dumb as hell. If that was the case, then why doesn't my table partner have a major crush on me? Or the other way around? No, what the hell, so dumb.

What I can immediately assume is that he has some sort of use for Arkalee. Arkalee, Arkalee... What is her usage? 

I just can't think of a single reason as to why she's useful. It doesn't click to me a single retrospective where Arkalee just becomes super relevant, so why, Hyunda? 

...............

This is dumb and meaningless. I've already told myself a million times that trying to understand his actions doesn't lead to anywhere. It's sorta cryptic once I think about how he never has to tell me the truth.

Has he ever told me a single truth thus far? What if they were all lies...? 

That aside, the reason why Arkalee is relevant isn't something that important. It would just make the connections more logical. If we throw her supposed relevance aside, then it changes nothing. Under the assumption that Arkalee is important to him, what's the next to interrogate is...

What did Arkalee see in Hyunda?

If I can't come to a conclusion regarding Hyunda's actions because I don't know the logic and reasoning behind them, then I can move on to an easier target, which is Arkalee.

"Hey, Yulia?"

"H-Huh?"

...? I was looking away all the time, but why is she suddenly perplexed? I don't get it. Was my face weird or something?

Do I have something on my face?

No, I'm touching it all over the place and nothing is in it. Okay, so...?

"Yulia, what's wrong?"

"Um, nothing at all! You were just so absent-minded that I found it funny! Do you go to some other world when you attempt to think about all things?"

"Not really, sorry. Anyway, I've managed to think about something that might take us to a lead. We shouldn't question anything regarding Hyunda because it won't lead us anywhere."

If she doesn't realize why then I'll go into depth as to why it's useless to attempt and perceive his actions.

She'll probably argue back against my decision...

"You are right. He's quite enigmatic, even if I don't want to admit it!"

She actually agreed? Impressive. I wasn't expecting it to, but she's been more reasonable and understanding as of lately.

Plus, we don't really argue anymore because she's willing to listen to my side as she is willing to listen to mine.

We might be developing a mutual understanding so to say. What a waste.

"Right. But you know who's not so enigmatic?"

"...Arkalee?"

"Yeah. You got it. Nice."

"Hehe."

She sounds oddly happy. Her smile's getting somewhat contagious if I were to be completely honest right now.

"The only mystery regarding Arkalee is how she developed these feelings for Hyunda. But, when do you think this happened?"

Fortunately for me, I won't have to reason here, as someone else already did it for me.

"Well, I don't know..."

Of course you don't. Technically speaking, I also don't. However, someone already deducted that there is a very big chance that it happened around a certain time.

"Now, don't get mad but this is something regarding Kawahara."

"Ugh... Daniel, why...?"

My guy, you are just hated by every speck on this planet. It's unreal.

I bet you could donate all your blood to a blood donation center and still be hated for just about everyone.

"Unfortunately for me, I don't have plausible reasoning for this. However, Kawahara went ahead and assumed a lot of things... Things that, for some reason, are just starting to click."

It's all assumptions though, but the more you think about it, the more it all makes sense. It's controversial because there is no evidence yet his entire reasoning and Arkalee's behavior are making so much sense.

His reasoning only makes sense because Arkalee's behaving stupidly attached to Hyunda which suggests that the events that happened were probably orchestrated by her.

"No, Daniel... Kawahara is on Hyunda's league. Now, I'm not defending Hyunda, but at least, he isn't an open asshole about every single thing. Just when he sees that he needs to be one. Kawahara, on the other hand, is the literal cockpit and the culmination of the word asshole! So, I don't want to hear it. Not because I don't trust you, but because it comes from Kawahara. Okay...?"

That's... Sorta understandable actually. 

Kawahara is indeed an open asshole to the world and that makes his credibility go down a lot. It's only natural that people doubt him.

I just don't care about that factor. Yulia does, so, I'll have to side with her.

Hell, she even showed signs of reluctance at the end of her words, which should indicate that she doesn't want to argue but just point out that any information that comes out of Kawahara's mouth is a joke to laugh at.

"Yeah, I got it, I got it."

Though, I'm dumb. I could've avoided this situation just now if I had just lied and said that this was my reasoning and not Kawahara's. 

But...

That would be using reasoning that isn't actually mine. This is so weird... Why did I do this? It makes no sense. I could've just gone and done it, yet why...?

"Are you okay...?"

"Yeah, yeah. I was just thinking about something unnecessary. So, since you don't want to hear his reasoning, I don't have much else to say about this. His reasoning would explain why Arkalee developed sudden feelings for him. However, I do understand. You don't trust him."

"Yeah... Sorry..."

"No need to apologize. Truth to be told, his reasoning is quite flawed. In the sense where there is no anecdotical evidence to it."

This is true.

Although, I can understand why it lacks evidence. Because Arkalee herself made sure that she would not get caught. 

At least according to Kawahara. If we go by the saying that believing in the probabilities is better, then Kawahara is most likely correct. Yet if we go by the saying that believing in certainties is better, then Kawahara is probably incorrect.

"Which is why, if we both can't form reasoning as to why Arkalee developed her feelings for Hyunda, we should consult someone that has a higher knowledge about romance in general."

"Oh... And that is...?"

"Sana, of course."

With that in mind, I attempted to take out my phone from my pocket.

Yes, attempted is the correct usage here. Because I couldn't actually commit to the full action.

Yulia's hand stopped me from reaching my pocket.

"Let's not."

...?

Why did she just...

"Why not? Isn't Sana an expert in romance though? We could get her opinion and get better reasoning for this, right?"

"I think that we should think more together. I'm sure we will reach a good set of options! We just aren't thinking that much, hahaha. That's why... Hold that phone call, will you?"

"Su-----"

"Furthermore, show that you want to be with Sana more than you want to be with her."

Before I finished my saying, that past sentence struck me instantly as I was quickly reminded that I was about to commit a grave mistake.

"On second thought, I don't really think that we will reach that far together. We already tried, so what's the harm? We will reach a plausible conc--"

"No."

"But wh--"

"No."

........................

Why is she suddenly acting like this? Yulia knows this for a fact so what's the harm here? I don't understand why she's being this annoyed by my suggestion.

"Is there something in the matter?"

"Oh, not really, not really. It's just, sorta offensive, once you think about it."

"What is?"

"How you just said that we can't reach that far together. That was somewhat offensive. Don't say something like that..."

Oh, so she's mad because I said that? That's fixable then.

"Alright, my mistake. You are right. We can reach a plausible conclusion together, sure. But maybe we should have Sana sa---"

"Daniel, enough about Sana. She's busy. She's really, really busy. I know this because I'm her best friend, so let's leave her alone, okay?"

No, I really have to insist here, according to Hyunda. However in a subtle manner, so to say.

"I see. We can discuss this for sure, absolutely. But, maybe when Sana's bac----"

"Enough! Stop talking about her! What is wrong with you!?"

Yulia's anger is nonsensical to me at this point. This is part of Hyunda's plan, isn't it? However, even if it is...

I want to know why she's so pissed off.

"What's wrong, Yulia? You don't have to be mad. I just thought that Sana could help us."

"Why Sana is specific? We have more classmates that could help us out with this. Sure, we would have to be indirect about this yet now that you know this is an option, change your mind, please."

"Yulia, why do you get so mad when Sana is mentioned? Isn't Sana your best friend?"

"Yes, she is. Actually, can you do me a favor? Just one small favor. I know it might sound illogical, but it's actually really simple."

Why do I get a feeling that this isn't good for me?

She also has not explained why she gets mad every time Sana is mentioned. Ergo, she's dodging the question.

I'll ask about it later when I talk to Hyunda, I suppose.

"Alright, I'll listen to it."

"Okay. Thank you. So, until the end of the festival, can you not encounter Sana a single time? Unless I'm there. That's the only exception."

"Um, Yulia?"

"Yes?"

"Why?"

"I can't explain now. However, at the end of the festival, I will. I promise! I really do! Just promise me you'll do this one thing for me! Please!"

I'm in a really awkward position at the moment. Do I say yes or no?

Normally, this is an immediate no, but I can just lie and get away with it. Or should I consult Hyunda about this?

Yeah, that's probably better since he's the orchestrator.

"Can I give this answer later on today?"

"I'm afraid not. Just promise me now. I really, really will explain it to you when the festival is over! It will all make sense by then!"

Yulia's more desperate than usual. This is the first time I've seen her this desperate. She's even going as far as almost splashing herself onto me just to portray her point.

But, even if that's the case...

"If you explain it now, then I will, sure."

".....Please don't make me argue. You know how I feel about that, right?"

"You don't have to argue, just tell me the truth. It's better this way."

"Daniel, I just told you that I can't. It will all make sense in the end, so please agree with me on this already! Why are you so eager to deny my request!? Is it about Sana?"

"Why are you targeting Sana all over the sudden?"

I didn't need to make this question yet I did. 

"I am not! Why are you defending her!? Are you implying that somehow Sana is more important than I am? I don't like what I am doing because it's making me look like I'm degrading Sana just so I can make my point but the fact that you are constantly backing her up and denying my request is making me think that you have something to hide!"

Well, that sure was a lot.

She's mad alright.

"I have nothing to hide, Yulia. I just don't think you are being fair to Sana."

"I cannot believe what I am listening to right now. Take all your words back, right now!"

Honestly, I am just curious as to why she's so mad and why she gets irritated every time I mention Sana.

I know that the plan is for me and Sana to share a kiss, but Yulia doesn't know that.

Yulia should not have a single reason to be jealous here. She didn't get jealous when I mentioned Arkalee which means that she isn't just playing an obsessive disorder for no reason.

I'm genuinely curious as to why this is happening.

"I don't think I can, Yulia. It's way more important if you just tell me why you are being so obnoxious about this. That would make things a lot easier..."

And not to mention, my curiosity could get fulfilled in the process. Hyunda knows why this is happening. I bet that he's probably laughing his ass off right now, isn't he? I find it hard to believe that this is just happening just because.

After all, Yulia showed a very reasonable and kind behavior thus far, so why the sudden change? It makes no sense.

"I'm obnoxious....? Did you just say that...?"

And now she's looking down.

I wouldn't be her boyfriend in the paper if I didn't know what was coming.

"Alright, I'm obnoxious, huh? Okay. Yeah, fine. You know what? I get it. Fine! Okay! Sure! I didn't care much about this anyways! Ugh!"

As per usual, her burst of emotions resulted in a meltdown which resulted in her leaving the current scenery with fast haste.

Usually, I would go after her, but not this time.

I need to contact Hyunda.

Because none of this actually makes sense.
