"Yuki, I need to talk to you about something," Hana said, her voice serious.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDTV6wvPZ7

Yuki raised an eyebrow. "What's up?"276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSUjVAj8ox
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDW5N9kJHyC
Hana took a deep breath. "It's about Jun," she said. "He's been acting really strange lately, and I think something's wrong."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWBG4ASxds

Yuki's eyes widened. "What do you mean?"276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0Wx5lt2Ej
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDU6Io1SRD
Hana told Yuki about Aiko and the blood-infused chocolate. Yuki listened intently, her expression growing increasingly concerned.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mdjBPMDst

Yuki walked over to Jun, who was sitting alone at a table in the corner of the cafeteria. He looked up when he saw her, his face pale and drawn.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYL9qvUGAw

"Jun, can I talk to you?" Yuki asked, her voice soft.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbYZg4SWTb
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGujn2LujNG
Jun hesitated. He was still nervous about what had happened the other day, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief when he saw Yuki.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhFHay3MG4
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsVGBOVF4h
"Sure," he mumbled, looking down at his hands.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIdP7xalbm
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCFqVzOfs7
Yuki sat down across from him. "I heard about what happened with Aiko," she said. "I'm so sorry."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyooHQI3PW
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLlzY2dZrm
Jun looked up at her, his eyes filled with surprise. "You know?" he asked.276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpm4QIoSFA

Yuki nodded. "Hana told me. I'm really worried about you."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhhbF23SZH

"I don't know what to do," Jun said, his voice trembling. "Aiko is really scary."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYRZoWFTPK
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgGQRxPQsd
Yuki smiled. "Don't worry," she said. "I'll help you."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLCSz3TPGB
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMKs37VHdn
She reached out and took his hand. "We'll figure this out together."276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZl7IH7DHO

Jun felt a warmth spread through his chest. He had never felt so safe, so protected. He was finally starting to believe that maybe, just maybe, he could find happiness with Yuki.
