After leaving the cafeteria, Eren heads toward his next class with Yuna following right behind him.
"Eren," Yuna says seriously, "this time John is definitely going to get punished. But I'm worried… what if he tries to take revenge on Kael later? You know exactly how John and his gang are."
For a moment, Eren's face tenses, but then he replies flatly, without any emotion, "That's none of our concern. The principal and the college exist to deal with these matters. You should just focus on yourself."
Yuna lets out a frustrated sigh. "Eren, you're so heartless. Nothing matters to you. Not even seeing such a beautiful omega could melt that cold heart of yours".
Eren only shoots him a gloomy look, making Yuna laugh. "Alright, alright, I won't say anything more. Oh, by the way after college today, we're supposed to go to the club. Lucus is throwing a birthday party, remember. He invited us."
"I don't have time," Eren replies bluntly.
Yuna pouts. "Eren, please! Come with me, or I'll be bored all alone. You should enjoy life at least once in a while. Please, Eren."
Seeing Yuna beg so much , Eren pauses, then sighs. "Fine. But I won't stay long."
Yuna beams with joy. "Eren, my bestie, my soul, there's no one better than you! I knew you liked me the most."
Eren stares at him with a blank face. Yuna, grinning mischievously, tries to hug him and even leans in to kiss his cheek.
But Eren quickly pushes him away, clearly fed up with his childish act . "If you try that again, you won't see me around anymore," he warns coldly before walking ahead.
Yuna rushes after him. "Okay, fine! I get it, no more. But admit it you do like me. Otherwise, why don't you have a boyfriend or girlfriend?" He bursts out laughing.
Eren ignores him, used to these same old jokes. Still, deep inside, he feels a faint warmth from having Yuna by his side, despite his annoying habits.
Laughing and teasing, Yuna follows closely behind.
What neither of them notice is that someone else is watching—Kael. He had quietly followed from a distance after leaving the cafeteria. His gaze lingers on Eren, his thoughts running deep and silent.
