Chapter Text
It was a regular day at babyls, and as the bell rang, signaling the end of class, Iruma, Asmodeus, and Clara gathered their things and headed for the school president’s office to ask Ameri if she wanted to join them for lunch since they haven’t gotten to see her often lately because of school stuff, like Ameri being busy disciplining the students and Iruma, Asmodeus, and Clara being busy trying to raise their ranks.
The last time they spoke was last month after the incident with Amy, where Clara, Asmodeus, and Ameri wanted to cheer Iruma up since they knew how close Iruma and Amy had gotten before the incident.
Ameri had noticed the shift in Iruma’s personality since the incident, and he would always be in his head, and he always had a sad expression displayed on his face.
“Hey Iruma, Are you okay? You seem a bit down.” Her voice was laced with worry.
“I’m fine Ameri!” He responded with a smile. Ameri could sense that his smile wasn’t sincerae because when he smiled his smile reached to his eyes and they would close. She wanted to bug him more for answers but she knew he would try to change the subject so she took matters into her own hands by calling his friends.
As Iruma replied with his seemingly forced smile, Ameri’s concern for him deepened. She hadn’t known him long but she could easily read him like a book so she could tell when he was faking a smile and when he had a real smile.
