"ehhh? You're leaving??"
"Why? Stay here till you graduate!!"
"I dont want you to leave, Rood!"
Classmates of Rood's gathered together after hearing the news from the principal and are blocking the school's entrance path trying to stop Rood and Dio from leaving,
"Oi Oo.. What about me..? Dio sweatdrops and murmurs quietly seeing how their classmates only concern about his other friend,
"Don't leave!!" They all say together in chorus,
"Umm.."
"Rood! Dio!" A boy with a grey colored hair and purple eye came running towards the two followed by a girl with green hair with brown eyes,
"Ah, Lidusis, Lin." Rood acknowledge them and smile, "Well I guess me and Dio will be leaving now." He says cheerfully, but deep inside, he wants to stay to make sure that Lidusis will be fine on his own.
"You're leaving..?" Lidusis ask with a sad face and tone of voice,
"Yeah, my guardians told me too."
"You too.. Dio..?" Lin ask, looking about to cry over the fact that her two friends are leaving.
"E..eh yea I'm going with Rood um since.."
A hand pat Lin's shoulder trying to make her calm, "Don't cry. You wouldn't want to make Rood and Dio worried would you?"
"Iel!" A white hair girl with a purple eye calmly walk towards the group,
"Don't worry about anything, just go home but do keep in touch with us." Iel smile warmingly to Rood and Dio, nodding to Lin and Lidusis to let the two go.
"But.."
"Lidusis. I.."
"Don't worry, Idun. I'll make sure nobody bullied Lid." A voice interrupts Rood and came a long blonde hair man with yellow eyes,
"Chevel.."
".... I'm leaving." Chevel walks away after saying such an uncharacteristic sides of him that made the other students freeze.
"Ah, Rood was it!" Next was a blonde man with blue eyes being accompanied by another man with purple hair and eyes,
"It was a short time we talked, but I should see you off." The blond smile and nods towards Rood while the other man smile his usual smile.
'Lapis and Linus..' Rood nods back,
"What about me..?!" Dio is in tear seeing how his friends, except Lidusis, Iel and Lin, are bidding Rood goodbyes and him being ignored.
A horse carriage could be seen from a distance and a voice shouted, "Rood!"
"Ah, Ren. Well I guess this is a goodbye." Rood bows a little to his friends and smile, when he was about to turn around and walk to the carriage with Dio, a hand grabs Rood's hand halting his movement.
"Lidusis..?" Rood turns around and saw his friend shaking and trying to say something but are all in whispers,
"...?"
Finally after taking up his courage, Lidusis abandoned his shyness and spoke with a determination, His eyes hold seriousness in them, "Rood, I..!!"
Rood Smile warmingly to him making Lidusis stop his speech, "You'll be fine now."
Lidusis's tightness on grabbing Rood's hands lessened and Rood take his chance of this and turn around, walking away.
"I'll visit you whenever I'm possible."
He says, maintaining his cool, while walking towards the carriage where Ren is waiting for him and Dio. Without turning back to see Lidusis.
"Goodbye, Prince, Lin and Iel!" Dio shout to them when they are riding inside the carriage with his head pops out from the window, waving his hands frantically with tears in his eyes.
And they left.
