⌞⤷ the game: festival day three ˚˖𓍢ִ໋🦢˚࣪ ִֶָ☾. ⌝

Hesitantly Y/n placed the necklace Christina gave inside the box, she wanted to have low expectations but a part of her prayed and prayed that it will be a second achievement of hers. Two steps forward into going home, she has to go home before they start to pursue Ivana tenaciously.

Since she's the one closer to Ivana, she may be caught in crossfire.

When the jewelry hit the bottom of the box, it started to glow, Y/n squealed in happiness. Keeping herself from jumping on her bed risking the box falling on the floor.

Hence she placed the box under her bed carefully before dancing around in her room in pure happiness.

But seeing as how the box glowed when she placed the two items, she started to think of the latter;

"Well you're happy." Hoshi's voice emitted from the side of her room, turning around to see him, she grinned happily, "Isn't it obvious? I succeeded!"

"Two steps forward i say." Y/n boasted, "That's nice." He mused, keeping a neutral expression.

"You don't seem to happy." She pointed out, "I am." He paused still having a nonchalant look on his face, which doesn't happen every so often, you do know what you put in the box right?" Hoshi replied.

"An important item from the characters?"

"You don't get it do you?" Hoshi facepalmed, "I just don't want to assume." She was met with silence as they both stared at each other, "Let me guess this is the time where you jolt me awake? Hahahahahah."

"Of course!"

Drenched in sweat, her eyes open catching her breath, on top of her is the box. She sighed,

"God dammit Hoshi."

"So what are we going to do the whole day?" She asked Ivana, when she arrived school it was announced during the flag ceremony that they have no class the whole day, giving the school athletes to prepare for their game by afternoon, with a neighboring school.

Swinging her legs in sync with Y/n, they both sat at a high platform placed on the courtyard, it wasn't that high per se, but enough to dangle your legs. Why must there be a random platform mentioned? For plot purposes of course. "Let's ditch." She replied while having a bright aura emit from her.

"Let me guess you have work at the booth?" Like a light switch she slumped gloomily, "Can't i just skip?" Y/n was about to reply when she was cut off by a loud voice;

"Assholes can't give me a damn break." Glancing at the crowd uninterested but to see whose voice it was abruptly turning back to Ivana, her eyes accidentally locked with familiar pair of gray eyes. Ones that she hadn't seen in a while.

"Y/n!" Kotaro shouted, as if he wasn't earlier, he sprinted towards the platform they sat on, well she sat with Ivana. But in his point of view she didn't exist but only Y/n.

"Please tell me he isn't going here." She craned her neck to see him indeed was going towards them, "Hey." He mused now standing in front of Y/n, "It's you." Ivana mumbled trying not to avidly frown at his presence.

She was of course ignored by Kotaro, "I have a game later, you'll go right?" Y/n was hesitant to answer his question, glancing at Ivana to see her response via telepathy. Which is impossible unless Ivana can read minds;
